Consumer Description

AS I BEGAN TO WORK ON TUESDAY OF THIS WEEK, I LOOKED DOWN AND MY SPEEDOMETER WAS REGISTERING 120 MPH. I WAS ONLY JUST BEGINNING SO I REALIZED SOMETHING WAS WRONG. I STOPPED AND SWITCHED THE CAR OFF AND THOUGHT IT WOULD RESET THE GAUGES BUT IT ONLY WENT TO 65MPH. AS I BEGAN DRIVING AGAIN IT STARTED REGISTERING 120MPH. THEN ON WEDNESDAY, IT WOULD NOT LEAVE OFF THE 120MPH WHEN I TURNED THE ENGINE OFF. THE NEXT TIME IT WENT BACK IT BEGINNING AT 65 AND AS I ACCELERATED IT WENT TO 120. I HAVE NO CLUE WHAT SPEED I AM TRAVELING WHILE DRIVING. I WENT TO MY DEALER AND HE SAID I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR IT TO BE FIXED. I DID NOT HAVE IT FIXED. *TR
