Consumer Description

THE SPEEDOMETER ON MY 2004 BUICK RAINIER STOPS WORKING INTERMITTENTLY. THERE IS NO PATTERN AS TO WHEN THIS OCCURS, IT HAS HAPPENED IN ALL TYPES OF WEATHER AND ALL TEMPERATURES. SOMETIMES IT SAYS I'M GOING FASTER THAN I AM, SOMETIMES IT SAYS I'M GOING SLOWER. SOMETIMES IT STOPS WORKING ALL TOGETHER. I HAVE RESEARCHED AND THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH RAINIERS. I'M WONDERING WHY THIS HASN'T BEEN RECALLED? THE VEHICLE HAS ABOUT 100,000 MILES ON IT NOW, BUT THE SPEEDOMETER STOPPING HAS BEEN AN ISSUE FOR A FEW YEARS. *TR
