| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: The speedometer incorrectly reflects the rate of speed at which the vehicle is traveling. this can be verified by using a gps unit which will accurately reflect the "true" speed at which the vehicle is traveling. in general, the vehicle's speedometer reflects a speed that is 5-7 mph greater than the vehicles actual speed. for example, while driving on the highway, the speedometer displays the rate of speed as 70 mph, when the vehicle is actually traveling only 64 mph. you can visit the website http://www.tdiclub.com or http://www.vwvortex.com and view the forums to verify that this is an issue with all new vw jetta vehicles and possibly other vw models. i as well as other jetta owners would like to have this issue corrected so that our speedometers accurately reflect the rate of speed at which we are traveling. *nm |
