Speed control issue

Someone complained that this particular truck was going too fast. I assumed the operator went online and adjusted the speed. This morning I checked it and the speed limit is set to 7, truck runs at 9. No idea why. So i backed it down to 5 and it runs at 7. This is fine as long as it stays that way. Any ideas why its off so much? I assume the same speed sensor is used to display the speed is the same one that they use to tell the truck what speed its running to compensate.
