Consumer Description

THE SPEEDOMETER ON MY 2003 SILVERADO STARTED STICKING, NOT RESETTING TO ZERO. THIS ALLOWED THE VEHICLE TO FAIL TO SHOW THE CORRECT SPEED. AT TIMES, I COULD TURN THE VEHICLE OFF, AND RESTART SEVERAL TIMES IN A ROW TO MAKE THE SPEEDOMETER RESET BACK TO ZERO, BUT NOW IT WILL NOT RESET AT ALL. I HAVE HEARD FROM SEVERAL DEALERS THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM, IF THAT IS TRUE, WHY HASN'T GENERAL MOTORS DONE SOMETHING TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM, SUCH AS A "RECALL"?? THIS TO ME IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM, AND THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD BE TAKING THE PROPER STEPS FOR REPAIRS! IF I CANT GET THIS RESOLVED, I CAN GUARANTEE I WONT PURCHASE ANOTHER GM VEHICLE! *NM
