Consumer Description

2005 GMC SPEEDOMETER FAILURE. STOPS WORKING AND GETS STUCK ON THE 120MILES POINT EVEN WHEN THE CAR IS OFF AND NOT JUST DRIVING. OCCURS AFTER ABOUT A FEW MINUTES OF DRIVING AND, AFTER ONLINE AND OFFLINE RESEARCH, IT TURNS OUT A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE THESE PROBLEM WITH SOME GMC TRUCKS, ESPECIALLY THE GMC ENVOYS MODELS. AND GM IS NOT DOING ANYTHING OR REFUSING TO FIX IT SINCE IT IS A MANUFACTURERS DEFAULT. THERE HASN'T BEEN ANY RECALLS TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE AND THERE ARE EVEN LAWSUITS IN SOME STATES ABOUT THIS. MY TRUCK IS NOT EVEN OLD ONLY 52,000 MILES AND I DON'T DRIVE A LOT JUST TO WORK AND HOME. *TR
