Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2005 CHEVY IMPALA..MILEAGE ABOUT 83000. MY PROBLEM STARTED LAST YEAR WHEN THE SPEEDOMETER JUST FROZE. WHEN I GOT HOME AND SHUT THE CAR OFF IT STILL STAYED IN THE SAME POSITION. I TURNED THE KEY ON AND OFF AND THE SPEEDOMETER WENT DOWN 5MPH EACH TIME I TURNED THE KEY UNTIL IT WENT BACK TO Z ERO.. THEN SOMETIMES AFTER IT STICKS IT UNFREEZES AND STARTS GOING AGAIN. I'VE HAD THE SPEED READING 120MPH BEFORE STANDING STILL. THIS HAPPENS EVERY DAY WHILE DRIVING AND IS VERY UNSAFE BECAUSE I NEVER KNOW HOW FAST I AM GOING.. *TR
