Vehicle repeatedly goes into "reduced engine power" without warning. Very dangerous when you are on the highway and suddenly lose power. Has been happening infrequently for the last two years. Now happens almost daily. *tr

My 2003 gmc sierra 1500 speedometer doesn't work. It shows high speeds after the truck is shut off. It seems to work in warm weather but doesn't work in cold weather. Not sure when the speedometer is accurate. *tr

My 2003 gmc 1500 extended cab pickup's instrument cluster is not working. Speedometer doesn't even work. This is not safe. I have to park my truck, or even get it taken for speeding. Not to mention if there is an accident because gm has a faulty part. That is not fair. I and thousands of others have complained to them but no solution. Plus i have less than 70,000 miles on my truck. *tr
