Consumer Description

MY HUSBAND AND I WERE TRAVELING TO HOUSTON THIS PAST WEEKEND, WHEN WE LOOKED DOWN AT THE SPEEDOMETER TO SEE THAT WE WERE TRAVELING AT A RATE OF 120 MPH. SINCE FLOW OF TRAFFIC WAS PASSING US QUITE EASILY, WE WERE ASSURED THAT WE WERE NOT, IN FACT, TRAVELING 120 MPH. WHEN WE PARKED THE CAR, WE WERE STILL TRAVELING AT 120 MPH. GM IS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE WITH THEIR PRODUCT, BUT HAS NOT DONE A FULL SCALE RECALL. INSTEAD, THEY HAVE A 7 YEAR/70,000 MILE WARRANTY EXTENSION. THE ISSUE WITH THAT IS THAT WE PURCHASED THIS CAR WITH MORE THAN 70K MILES ON IT. THE DEALERSHIP KNOWINGLY SOLD US A VEHICLE THAT HAD MAJOR ISSUES WITH THE SPEEDOMETER. *TR
