Consumer Description
I AM AWARE THAT THERE ARE MANY 1995 TAURUS OWNERS WHO HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THEIR SPEEDOMETERS. WHEN I GO OVER 45MPH, THE NEEDLE BOUNCES BETWEEN 45 AND 85. THIS MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE THE ACTUAL SPEED I'M GOING. I WAS FOLLOWING MY PARENTS ON A TRIP, AND MY SPEEDOMETER READ 85 AND FASTER THE ENTIRE TIME I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE. BUT THEY WERE GOING ONLY 70. IF I WEREN'T FOLLOWING THEM, I WOULD HAVE BEEN GOING MUCH SLOWER THAN THE TRAFFIC, AND THIS IS DANGEROUS. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD, AND I FEEL THAT SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE ABOUT THIS. *AK
