The problem is a rear sensor on the differential. These things go out left
and right and if you go to the dealership the part is around 30 bucks. Only
takes about 10 minutes to change, and there's nothing to it. Any good
dealership will know exactly what your talking about because it's a big
problem but if you want the part number let me know and I'll go look it up
for ya.

p.s. the speedometer will get worse and worse the longer it goes. I waited
about 5 months and by that time mine didn't register till about 60 mph, and
that is also the reason your brake light and abs is on.
