Speedometer malfunction anyone?

Right after I got my '03, I noticed the speedometer "sticks" in spots, especially between 60 and 80 mph. The needle will move smoothly at first, then stop for a split-second, then move smoothly again. It does it accelerating and well as decelerating. I've taken it to the dealer twice and they say they can't duplicate it. Theymust be blind. Just wondering if anyone else has this problem.

Yeah its a little annoying but not annoying enough to have someone tear my car apart trying to fix it and most likely add rattles to the dash.

Just because some others have seen the same thing, does not
