While driving my 2004 GMC Suburban home with my family. I looked down and noticed I was driving at 90 miles an hour. What a surprise. The speedometer was reading wrong. By the time I got home I was going 120 miles an hour pulling into my driveway. This just happened and I have not gotten it fixed yet. This could be a major safety issue if not fixed. I read many blogs and many people have had this same issue. I am very lucky that no one was injured or killed by this safety issue. In my opinion this should be covered by a safety recall. I work for gm and I am very embarrassed by this quality issue. So much for the quality of gm vehicles when I see many other customers have the same issue.
