| Speedometer and odometer quit working. on 04/23, the speedometer would not work for the first 5 miles, then it would start working. on 4/27 the speedometer and odometer quit working all together. on 01/07/98, i was charged 320.52 to replace the speed and emission sensors. can you please help me to get this defect corrected. with accessing this website i was unaware that others are having the same problems. i am very disappointed that the dealer (zangara dodge) knew about these defeats years in advance, yet i was charged to correct these problems. since this problem has reaccured, any help that you can provide me will be appreciated. driving without a speedometer is scary and very dangerous....i just do not have another $320 to pay the dealership to correct this problem again. thank you for your assistance. *ak | |||
