| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: While passing several radar signs, i noticed my trucks speedometer was reading about 8% above the actual speed i was traveling. a check at a "speedometer check" where they have mileage signs every mile for several miles also confirmed this. a trip with my gps also showed the speedometer was inaccurate. the dealership checked my truck on their smog dyno and said my speedometer was only 1 mph off at 40 mph. they inferred that satellites, police radar and my wrist watch are less accurate than their smog test dyno, not likely. i'm getting ripped off for 8% of my warranty! *jb |
