| This complaint is about an electrical short in the wiring and plug going to the fan motor on the inside cab of my 2006 gmc truck. this truck has 43000 miles on it and carried it in to be fixed and was told nothing could be done because it was out of warranty. i'm very disappointed because i feel that this is a hazard. this plug has been going bad for some time now because i could smell the odor in the truck but could not pinpoint where it was coming from. after the fan motor stopped working i traced the problem down to the plug and found where it had been melting away. this is when i drove it back to the dealership and was told nothing could be done because it was out of warranty. i feel this should be a defect and not something that should be a warranty issue. this plug got very hot for a long period of time and melted it could have started a fire. *tr | |||

| Dt*: the contact stated the speedometer displayed an incorrect reading up to 10 mph more than the driven speed. the vehicle was seen by a dealer, who determined this was due to the oversized tires on the vehicle which affected the overall telemetry. the vehicle was sent to an independent repair shop and an after market hyper-tech computer chip was installed to override the computerized telemetry of the vehicle. updated 05/30/06. *ak | |||
