1 Fuses And Circuit Breaker problem

Failure Date: 11/08/2010

Driving along the highway at the posted speed of 65 mph the speedometer suddenly dropped to 0 and the needle ceased to move. Upon stopping at the next rest stop and checking for circuit breakers I realized that the problem was probably within the instrument itself and continued. Returning to the freeway I noticed the speedometer was once again functioning but cars were passing me at an excessive speed. I estimated, by traveling with the flow of traffic, our speedometer was reading 15-20 mph fast. After stopping again and troubleshooting with no success we resumed our trip with the speedometer reading approximately 10-15 slower than actual speed. Upon notifying our dealer I was told the speedometers in this year vehicle were failing at a excessive rate and the manufacturer had decided to offer and extended warranty to 70000 miles for replacement. I was never notified of this problem and warned of the defective parts in my vehicle. This particular trip was to mexico and the reliability of my speedometer would be a particular concern on the roads I travelled. This part should have been recalled due to the excessive rate of failure and the manufacturer should have notified the consumer immediately.
