Consumer Description

SPEEDOMETER AND OTHER INSTRUMENTS ARE INACCURATELY READING. SPEEDOMETER RANGES FROM 25 - 70 MPH OVERSTATED. FUEL GAUGE REMAINS WELL IN EXCESS OF FULL UNTIL ABOUT 7 GALLONS ARE LEFT IN TANK. OIL PRESSURE IS REGISTERING WELL TO THE RIGHT OF THE HIGHEST READING. PROBLEM BEGAN DURING COLD TEMPERATURE (AROUND 10 DEGREES) AND IMPROVES WITH TEMPERATURE INCREASES BUT HAS NOT RESOLVED ITSELF. APPEARS TO BE THE SAME PROBLEM AS GM SPECIAL POLICY ADJUSTMENT 07187A. THE VIN IS WITHIN THE CATEGORY LISTED BY THE POLICY; HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE IS OLDER THAN 10 YEARS BUT FITS WITHIN THE MILEAGE RESTRICTIONS SINCE THE VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 64,500 MILES. THIS APPEARS TO BE A KNOWN DEFECT WHICH CLEARLY IMPACTS SAFETY. THE FOLLOWING LINK DESCRIBES THE KNOWN ISSUE: HTTP://WWW.GMSPEEDOMETERRECALL.COM/GMC-SPEEDOMETER-SETTLEMENT LOCATION OF VEHICLE IS KANSAS CITY, KS SINCE I AM CURRENTLY IN THE PROCESS OF RELOCATION.
