depends on the vehicle, on older vehicles (say late 80's back) it is usually a busted tooth on the adapter in your transmission or your cable is kinked, on new cars, it is all computerized and usually means that your cluster panel (where all your gauges, speedometer and odometer are located) is slowly going out. Usually cheaper to replace the whole cluster panel than it is to replace just that one component, but check with your dealership about prices in your area.

If your car is leased, get it fixed pronto (stop driving!). Otherwise, you'll be knocked with a "Total mileage unknown" and will be charged the max they can get away with for you going over the allocated miles on your lease.It could also cause problems if you try to sell or retitle the vehicle, as you cannot give an accurate odometer/mileage reading.It could be something as simple as the cable going to the odometer became unplugged, or it may just be a defective odometer... But you'll have to see a dealer (and you shouldn't be adding miles to it in the meantime) to get it fixed. If it's a digital odometer, the correct mileage may have to be burned into the computer chip by the manufacturer...
