There are some worm gears that drive the odometer inside the
speedometer. These gears are made of plastic and will, in some cases,
finally wear out. It sounds like yours did. The fixes are different.
Some people choose to live with it, some replace the entire speedo
housing (get from junkyard) and some replace the gears with those from a
good speedo (yet again, get from junkyard). The latter will keep your
odo reading. I doubt new gears are available from the dealer.
