| Description of the problem | I have a 2005 tahoe with 55,600 miles. The problem is with the speedometer. It gets stuck usually around the 60 mph mark then it thinks that 60 mph is actually 0 mph. So when you start driving it goes past the 120mph mark and stays. I called gm and they told me that the problem is with the 2003 2004 and would not be covered under the recall because it is a 2005. |
