Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My speedometer needle started to stick on a higher speed and not come down. it would return to zero if i started and stopped the engine multiple times. this condition gradually worsened until it was stuck on "pegged", even when parked. i had no idea how fast i was going. also, the speed control would not engage. i had to stop the vehicle and turn off the engine, then proceed before it would work again. i took it to the dealer for the speedometer. they were aware of the speedometer problem and one person insinuated it was a very common problem. they replace the "cluster" (?). they would not allow me to have the old parts and charged me $450.00! i speak for myself and others with this problem,"we need help!" *nm
