I set my truck clock ahead 3 minutes from my watch but I’m a couple weeks it’s 4-5 minutes ahead. Shouldn’t it just stay three minutes ahead?

Question

I usually set my vehicle clock ahead too be early to places. I used to set it areas 5 mins but in a few weeks it’d be 7-8 minutes ahead.

Should it be more accurate? I can’t say. 2 minutes in 3 weeks is not unusual for a car clock. That’s one second gained every 15,120 seconds or 1 in 4.2 hours. If my clock was that far out, I’d set it back 2 minutes so that in 3 weeks it will be on time and in 2 more weeks it will be 2 minutes ahead.
