| Description of the problem | My speedometer has a mind of it's own. It will say i'm doing 20mph when i know i'm going much faster than that. Or it will register 0mph. I took my tahoe into the shop today and they said that nothing came up as being wrong on their computer so nothing was fixed. I contacted chevy and they said that was true, they can't fix it unless they know what the problem is, i know what it is, the speedometer isn't working! This has happened to me 3 times now, i will continue to take it to the dealership and to call chevy everytime this occurs, i want results, not a speeding ticket! |
