Im not sure why but i now it can cause my father has a old Ford f-100 and he got a ticket for going 67 around a turn and theres no way it tops out at prolly 50. Or was there a car in front of u when u got pulled?
Yes it can! I have a 1998 Ford Ranger, it wasn't "right" straight from the factory. There are a variety of reasons including wrong size tires, worng gear in tranny on older models, defective instrument cluster. I am sure there are more reasons.
Recently a relative have a brand new 2004 Ford clocked at 5 mph over what the speedometer said the car was traveling. The dealership had to reprogram / replace the computer brain AND reprogram the door remotes for the car.

Yes, tires that are larger or smaller in diameter than original factory size will cause a car's speedometer to be wrong.

Why doesnt your speedometer work on a 02 Mits Galant
Depends on what's wrong with the speedometer. Try re-soldering the contacts on the mainboard behind the instrument panel.
check if it has a speedometer cable if not the speed sensor needs to be replaced

The speed should read fine with a GM speedometer, as the 110 and 150 are calibrated to go into the same cars with the same transmissions.
