NHTSA Complaint #10359170 — 2005 GMC ENVOY XL 370

2005 GMC ENVOY SPEEDOMETER FAILURE. WHILE DRIVING THE ENVOY OVER STEVENS PASS ( WASHINGTON STATE) THE SPEEDOMETER BEGAN READING A SIGNIFICANTLY LOWER SPEED THAN MY WIFE WAS DRIVING...AT FIRST SHE TRIED TO SPEED UP FEARING THAT SHE HAD ABSENTMINDEDLY BEGAN TO SLOW BUT SOON REALIZED THAT THE SPEEDOMETER CONTINUED TO REFLECT EVEN LOWER SPEEDS. AFTER GOING TO THE INTERNET I'VE DISCOVERED THAT THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH GM TRUCKS FOR THE YEARS 2003 THRU 2007 AND ACTUALLY THERE HAS BEEN A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT FILED. ( I DON'T KNOW THE DISPOSITION) THE REMEDY IS REPLACING THE ENTIRE GAUGE CLUSTER AT A COST OF AROUND $500. SEEMS UNFAIR CONSIDERING THIS IS A PROBLEM OF GMS' AND APPARENTLY KEPT SECRET WHILE CHARGING THEIR CUSTOMERS FOR THEIR PROBLEMS .
