Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have a 2004 gmc sierra that has a malfunctioning speedometer. it shows reading anywhere from 0-100 mph over what you are traveling at. with the truck turened off - the speedometer will show it at speeds of up to 100 mph. this all started at about the 40,000 mile mark. we previously had a 2004 chevy 5500 truck that too began w/ speedometer trouble at the 40,000 mile range. we know several other people with a 2004 chevy/gmc all of whom have this same problem. checking around the internet and it appears that this is a huge problem that should warrant a recall before something tragic could happen.
