| Description of the problem | 2004 chevy tahoe-speedometer acting erratic. First notice problem while driving on the freeway doing 70 mph,then applied brakes to slow down and the speedometer went down to 30 mph. I came back to 70 mph, so i thought ,but traffic was passing me up like if they were doing 100 mph. In reality i was doing about 50 mph. Next day it was working fine,but now the speedometer is jerky. Reading chevy tahoe forums a lot of people are having the same problems and after a few days of the jerky speedometer the speedometer completely goes out. This needs to be recalled. *nm |
