NHTSA Complaint #10210023 — 2004 CHEVROLET SILVERADO

MY 2004 CHEVY SILVERADO SPEEDOMETER KEEPS STICKING AT 55 OR 60 WHEN I TRAVEL FOR MORE THAN 20 MILES ITS REALLY UNSAFE AND ENDED UP PAYING A 191.00 SPEEDING TICKET OVER THIS. MY SPEEDOMETER WAS STUCK AT 50 WHEN I WAS REALLY DOING 65 AND I DIDN'T NOTICE I TOLD THE OFFICER BUT HE SAID TO HAVE SOMEONE CHECK IT OUT. I AM A FAIRLY GOOD MECHANIC ALSO A ELECTRICIAN. I KNOW IT IS THE STEPPER MOTOR IN THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. I JUST DON'T HAVE THE FUNDS TO FIX IT MYSELF WHEN I AM PAYING SPEEDING TICKETS THIS SHOULD BE A DEFINITE RECALL I HAVE READ SO MANY COMPLAINTS OVER THE INTERNET. ALSO TALKING WITH OTHER MECHANICS THAT SEE THE SAME PROBLEM ON AT LEAST WEEKLY BASIS. THANK YOU *TR
