What owners wrote

Speedometer failed. Unsafe situation. Speedometer is currently registering erroneous readings. GM has issued a service bulletin on this problem and is replacing speedometers in vehicles with under 70,000 miles. My 2004 GMC has 88,000 miles and is not covered by their current campaign. Speedometer indicates 60MPH while in park.

Reported at 87,000 miles, November 2008

Tachometer gauge no longer functions, wrong speed reading on speedometer and oil pressure gauge reading too much pressure. Fuel gauge reading add fuel when I know it has more than "low". Funny how speedometer was pegged out when I was only going 60.
