The speed shown on the screen of my 2017 c7 grand sport is half that of the true speed being travelled (I use kph, but its the same issue in mph also). Its quite annoying because Waze won't always alert cameras if it perceives the cars speed to be under the speed limit!

Unfortunately no idea how to fix it. Ive tried wirelessly connecting to the info system, but it persists. So I live with it. Clearly a software glitch from GM, and I think other cars might have it too. I think if you're in the car, but don't plug Waze in, then the app will record the correct speed, but obv maps won't be on the screen and no one wants to look down always at a phone when driving...

Sorry I can't help other than confirming it certainly happens and I have no fix. I actually came on here looking for a solution.. :S

Wow!

A thread from 2-1/2 years ago resurfaces. That's cool!

Rico750sxi - are you still around?

If so, did you ever solve the problem?

I see some don’t have this problem. Maybe it was corrected with newer cars. Mine is a 2016. I’ve been searching for a solution.
Mine is a 2016 also and it’s half of what my car is doing also.

This forum used to be so great and now you can't even ask a question without getting belittled, flamed, or made to feel like an idiot. It's very unfortunate...
I know this is very old, but did you ever figure out why your car was doing that because mine is doing the same thing. It is like half of what my car is doing and telling me I’m doing.
