| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: (2004 silverado extended cab ls 5.3l with 54k miles) i was driving to work this morning (cruising about 70mi) but i noticed that when i slowed down in traffic, the speedometer was stuck at 70mi. once i got off the freeway, i pulled into the gas station to fill-up, and noticed that the needle on the speedometer was still stuck @ 70mi. as i drove away, i noticed that now, the new 70mi. mark was 0mi, and as i drove down the street, the car was reading 100mi. it continued to move back to 70 as i came to a complete stop. i understand there is a class-action law suit for this issue. i will not pay to repair this problem as i feel it's gm's problem to resolve. my next vehicle will be a toyota...and they wonder why imports are flooding the market...gm needs to step up and be responsible for this stuff! i fear that when i take it in to the dealer ship, they are going to charge me an arm and a leg, despite that fact that i purchased an extended warranty package from them at the time of purchase (truck). now that this issue is there, i can't really drive my truck until it's repaired since i don't want to have an accident or get a ticket. *tr |
