NHTSA Complaint #10262577 — 2004 CADILLAC ESCALADE

I AM THE OWNER OF A 2004 CADILLAC ESCALADE AND MY SPEEDOMETER HAS QUIT WORKING IT STARTED MALFUNCTIONING/STICKING, NOT SHOWING CORRECT SPEED ON APPROXIMATELY FEBRUARY 27, 09 AS OF TODAY IT HAS QUIT WORKING ALL TOGETHER. WHEN I CALLED THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP (RED NOLAND CADILLAC) I WAS ADVISED THE COST TO REPAIR THE SPEEDOMETER CLUSTER WOULD BE APPROXIMATELY $370. AND BECAUSE I HAVE APROX 72,000 MILES ON MY VEHICLE THE SPECIAL BULLETIN THAT WAS ISSUED BY GM HAS EXPIRED. I ASKED THE DEALERSHIP IF THERE WERE ANY EXCEPTIONS TO THE SPECIAL BULLETIN SINCE I AM ONLY 2,000 MILES OVER THE THRESHOLD, I WAS TOLD THAT IF I WAS THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF THE VEHICLE THEY COULD HELP ME, BUT SINCE I AM NOT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO FOR ME. *TR
