Speedometer produces squeal at speeds above 55 MPH also needle swings wildly usually from current speed to pegged at 85mph when vehicle hits bumps in road. Needle does not necessarally return to actual speed. Been advised by other ford owners that they have experianced similar problems. A speedometer should last the lifetime of the vcehicle!
Firs odometer failure noticed 2nd day after purchase of car .had 21,055 miles on car. This odemeter currently has 78,981 miles on it. Stivers told me I had to pay for replacement of new odometer since it was out of warranty. Cannot afford $500.00. Noticed on the federal safety agency complaint database that there have been numerous complains about the same thing. When driving 40+ MPH odometer makes a grinding noise (continuously), and the odometer jumps eratically back and forth - cannot tell how fast you are going.
