NHTSA Complaint #10567388 — 2004 BUICK LESABRE

I PURCHASED MY 2004 LESABRE IN 2005. APPROXIMATELY 3 YEARS AGO, THE SPEEDOMETER WOULD REGISTER 120 WHEN I WAS MOVING OR WHEN THE CAR WAS STOPPED OR PARKED. I SPOKE TO MY MECHANIC AND HE TOLD ME THAT IT WAS AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR. I AM A VERY CONSERVATIVE DRIVER BUT AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE SPEEDOMETER AND THE GAS GAUGE NOT FUNCTIONING. I HAVE A DEBILITATING DISEASE AND CANNOT EVEN PUMP MY OWN GAS. WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF I HAD TO TRY AND WALK TO A GAS STATION. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THIS IS NOT A RECALL!! HOW MANY COMPLAINTS DOES IT TAKE?? I LOVE MY CAR BUT MAY HAVE TO SPEND A LOT OF MONEY TO FIX A PROBLEM THAT IS GM'S RESPONSIBILITY. I AM SHOCKED AT THE AMOUNT OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS VERY PROBLEM. I AM ALSO SURE THAT THERE ARE MANY MORE NOT REPORTED. PLEASE DO SOMETHING!! *TR
