Transmission problem
2009 GMC Truck V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic

Hi, I just purchased a 2009 gmc truck (nice rig, dont get me wrong ) my eldest son borrowed it last weekend to go up north.
Yesterday I found out that he disconnected the speedo, thats why I couldnt question the gas receipts he handed over.
Is this something I need to let the manufacturer know about? Thanx.

Federal law would require you to grab your eldest son and place him under citizens arrest and hand him over to the proper authorities, just kidding, I don't think it's that easy just to disconnect the Speedo sensor, did you take the mileage down before he left? How far did he travel? Usually when you disconnect the Speedo sensor you will lose transmission simultaneously so I don't think he went very far with the speedo sensor disconnected, do you have an engine light on now? You may have to take it back to the dealer and have him we set the parameters on the transmission don't tell them what your eldest son did, you will probably lose your warranty if you do.
