Consumer Description

MY SPEEDOMETER IS READING 100 MPH WHEN I'M ONLY GOING 40 - 50. WHEN I COME TO A COMPLETE STOP, THE SPEEDOMETER MAY MOVE TO 60. IT'S TAKEN UP TO 3 - 4 DAYS TO MOVE BACK DOWN TO THE 0. THEN THE SAME PROCESS WILL START ALL OVER AGAIN. THE CAR ALSO TENDS TO DRIVE SLUGGISH WHEN THIS IS HAPPENING. COULD IT BE THE SPEEDOMETER OR TRANSMISSION??? I'VE BEEN TOLD TO REPLACE THE CLUSTER IN THE DASH BUT WILL THAT PREVENT THE SLUGGISHNESS ALSO? *TR
