I just bought a used 2011 Mazda3 s GT. It had 93,600 miles on it, as I witnessed with my own eyes on the test drive. I noticed that the speedometer was 9 mph off - it showed 62 when I was actually driving 71mph. I decided to buy it, and the used car dealer then showed me how the telescoping/tilt wheel worked. Once I got it home, I noticed that the odometer read 300 miles - that's it! Should I suspect a bad speed sensor, a loose connection near the instrument cluster, a bad fuse, or some other problem? Do you think the odometer and speedometer issues are related? Thanks.
