Consumer Description

DURING NORMAL HIGHWAY DRIVING, THE INSTRUMENTATION PANEL NEEDLE GAUGES BEGAN TO MALFUNCTION. THE SPEEDOMETER INITIALLY REGISTERED SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER THAN ACTUAL SPEEDS (REGISTERED 110+ MPH WHEN TRAVELING AT ~65 MPH) AND THEN STUCK AT 15 MPH REGARDLESS OF ACTUAL SPEED OR WHEN AT A COMPLETE STOP. THE TACHOMETER ALSO BEGAN TO REGISTER HIGHER THAN ACTUAL RPM, SHOWING 6,000+ RPM EVEN WHEN THE VEHICLES ENGINE WAS RETURNED TO IDLE OR TURNED OFF. OTHER GAUGE MALFUNCTIONS INCLUDE THE OIL PRESSURE GAUGE WHICH WOULD ALSO INTERMITTENTLY REGISTER HIGHER THAN ACTUAL PRESSURE. WITHOUT EITHER A FUNCTIONING SPEEDOMETER OR TACHOMETER, IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO ESTIMATE ACTUAL VEHICLE SPEEDS AND MAINTAIN A SAFE DRIVING SPEEDS. HAVE CONTACTED A LOCAL GMC DEALER REGARDING THIS ISSUE AND HAVE NOT YET IDENTIFIED A REMEDY. *TR
