2004 GMC SIERRA 1500 SPEEDOMETER FAILED AFTER WARRANTY WAS OVER. SPEEDOMETER STICKS AND READS ANYWHERE FROM 60 TO 120 MPH WHEN STANDING STILL. MANY COMPLAINTS IN FORUMS, BUT NO RECALL FROM GMC. UNSAFE TO DRIVE WITHOUT KNOWING TRUE SPEED. GMC WANTS BIG BUCKS TO FIX, SHOULD BE RECALLED.*AK

THE SPEEDOMETER ON THE 2004 GMC SIERRA IS IRRATIC. IT WILL READ A SPEED BUT IT WILL NOT BE MOVING. YOU CANNOT TELL HOW FAST YOU ARE GOING, WHICH MAKES IT UNSAFE. *AK
