Yep, any time you see a Chevy speedometer on 120-you know it's broke

I am not the man. But the man knows my name...and he's worried

Done.The speedometer on my 2003 Chevy Sliverado died several months ago.Its stuck on 120 constantly now.GMC wants $500+ to fix this increasingly common failure.Complaint has been filed with NHTS and I'm hoping enough people will bitch to get it recalled.

My 2002 works fine. I would just like to complain about the tail gate latch and the console latch. Other than that, best truck i ever owned. Oh and the rotors suck.

Boy, I hope the tailgate latch is not a problem too! I just had it not latch the other day, but shutting it again got it...I'll have to watch out for that.

I was holding out for a recall on the speedometer, but GM customer service got me to take it in thinking they were going to cover it...I ended up paying $250 for the IP and intermediate shaft fix.

lube the latch they rust all the time as long as they are still working penetrating oil will help

Yup, 2003 Chev Suburban.

You can see the pic here.

I used my extended warranty with Geico to fix it...still cost me $250.
