HAS A BAD GAS SMELL LEAKING GAS SOMEWHERE

ONE BY ONE THINGS HAVE BEEN GOING OUT AND NOT WORKING. FIRST THE CAR WOULD NOT START ALL THE TIME WITH THE KEY, THEN THE A/C STOPED WORKING, NEXT WAS THE FUEL PUMP, THEN THE INJECTORS. I CHECKED EVERYTHING IT COULD BE. I WAS DRIVING WITH MY KIDS DOWN THE HIGHWAY WHEN MY CAR JUST DIED LOST POWER STEERING SO IT WAS HARD TO GET OFF THE ROAD FAST. I GOT IT STARTED AND WAS DRIVING AND IT DID IT AGAIN. I WAS ABLE TO FINALLY GET IT HOME WHEN IT WOULD NOT START AGAIN. AFTER SOME RESEARCH ONLINE FOUND OUT THIS CAR HAS ISSUES WITH THE FUSE BOX ITSELF UNDER THE HOOD. I OPENED IT UP JUST TO FIND THE WORDING THAT CONNECTED THE PINS WAS BROKEN IN NUMEROUS PLACES AND HAD STARTED TO BURN UP IN THE BOX.

WHEN DRIVING FOR 30 TO 45 MINS ALL THE INSTRUMENTS ON DASH START STICKING AND READING WRONG INFORMATION. IN THE PICTURE MY CAR IS PARKED .

THE DRIVERS SEAT HEATER GOT VERY HOT AND THEN STOPPED WORKING SHORTLY AFTER. I DID AN INTERNET SEARCH AND FOUND THAT THIS IS VERY COMMON. I FOUND THAT ONE OF THE WIRES HAD OVERHEATED AND ACTUALLY BURNED THE FOAM AND COVERING. THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS AND PICTURES ON THE INTERNET. I REMOVED MY SEAT AND FOUND THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. I AM ASTOUNDED THAT NOTHING IS BEING DONE TO STOP THE USE OF THESE DEFECTIVE HEATERS. THIS IS MOST CERTAINLY A VERY SERIOUS FIRE AND BURN HAZARD. *TR

WHILE CHANGING LANES ON THE FREEWAY, MY TAILGATE WINDOW SHATTERED ON MY 2003 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER EXT. THERE WERE NO WARNING SIGNS OF THIS EVENT. THERE WERE NO CHIPS IN THE GLASS, THE ROAD WAS SMOOTH. SINCE THE GLASS HAS SHATTERED THE TAILGATE LOCK MECHANISM IS NOW MALFUNCTIONING AS WELL. *TR

THE ABS LIGHT HAS COME ON AND THEN IT WOULD WORK SOMETIMES AND NOT OTHER TIMES. NOW IT NEVER WORKS. NOW THAT ITS WINTER I'M SLIDING AT STOP SIGNS THAT AREN'T EVEN THAT SLIPPERY. THE ACTUATORS IN THE HEATING AND COOLING ARE NOT WORKING PROPERLY. ALL SUMMER I HAD HEAT BLOWING ALL THE TIME AND SUDDENLY THERE WOULD BE NOTHING. NOW IT'S COLD AIR ALL THE TIME.

MY WIFE AND FIVE CHILDREN TRAVELING ON I-94 E AND EXITED THE FREEWAY AT THE 12 MILE EXIT IN ROSEVILLE MI. MY WIFE ATTEMPTED TO BRAKE AS THEY APPROACHED THE RED TRAFFIC SIGNAL ON THE 12 MILE EXIT RAMP AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WITHOUT WARNING. SHE WAS UNABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE AND PROCEEDED THROUGH THE RED LIGHT NARROWLY MISSING A HIGH SPEED COLLISION WITH BOTH EAST AND WEST BOUND TRAFFIC ON 12-MILE ROAD. SHE CONTINUED THROUGH THE INTERSECTION ON THE RED LIGHT AND WAS ABLE TO STOP THE SUV SEVERAL HUNDRED YARDS DOWN THE SERVICE DRIVE. SHE SLOWLY DROVE THE VEHICLE HOME AND I CHECKED THE BRAKES AND THE PEDAL WENT STRAIGHT TO THE FLOOR WITH NO BRAKE WARNING OR ANY OTHER INDICATORS ON THE DASH. I PUMPED THE BRAKES SEVERAL TIMES AND COULDN'T EVEN HOLD THE VEHICLE WHILE IDLING IN THE DRIVE POSITION. I ALSO NOTICED A LARGE PUDDLE OF FLUID UNDER THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. I'M GOING TO LIMP THE VEHICLE TO MORAN CHEVROLET IN CLINTON TOWNSHIP, MI AND LEAVE IT WITH THOSE THAT SOLD ME THIS DEATHTRAP. ANOTHER AND PERHAPS EVEN GREATER SAFETY CONCERN I HAVE IS THE SUV'S TENDENCY TO MISBEHAVE WHILE IN AWD MODE. THE VEHICLE SOMETIMES GOES IN REVERSE WHILE DRIVE IS SELECTED AND VICE VERSA. ADDITIONALLY, THE VEHICLE WILL SOMETIMES PUT ITSELF IN NEUTRAL WHILE ENGAGED IN DRIVE MODE OR WHILE STOPPED AT TRAFFIC SIGNALS. OH AND LAST WEEK I REPLACED THE WINDSHIELD WIPER ASSEMBLY AFTER IT FAILED AND FOUND NO EVIDENCE THAT GM HAD COMPLETED THE RELATED RECALL WORK THAT SIGNED OFF AS BEING COMPLETE FOR THE WINDSHIELD MOTOR AND LINKAGE ASSEMBLY. I SEE I'M NOT ALONE IN HAVING SUFFERED CATASTROPHIC SAFETY RELATED FAILURES WITH THIS PARTICULAR SUV. PLEASE TAKE NOTICE AND FORCE GM TO RECALL TO FIX THIS CORROSION ISSUE WITH THE BRAKE SYSTEM. I ALMOST LOST MY FAMILY LAST EVENING AND WILL ASSUME IT WOULD HAVE MADE NATIONAL NEWS HAD THEY DIED IN AN ACCIDENT.

PURCHASED A 2003 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER-EXT LT IN DEC 2002 FROM THE DEALER, TEAM CHEVROLET IN PASADENA. SINCE PURCHASING THE VEHICLE, THERE'S BEEN SEVERAL RECALLS, ONE IN PARTICULAR THAT KEEPS RECURRING ARE THE BRAKE LIGHTS KEEP BURNING, THE DEALER CHANGED BOTH UNITS BUT IT KEEPS BURNING OUT. I GOT TIRED OF TAKING IT TO THE DEALER, SO I PURCHASED NEW BULBS AND LOOKED INTO REPLACING THEM MYSELF. HOWEVER WHEN I UNSCREWED THE BULB, I NOTICED THE BULB JUST DIDN'T BURN NORMALLY (LIKE A HOME LAMP) IT LOOKED MORE OF AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE, THE LINING OF WHERE THE BULB IS SCREWED IN LOOKED LIKE IT HAD WHITE RESIDUE AND IT SMELLED SMOKY. ALSO, DON'T KNOW IF ITS THE SHOCKS OR SUSPENSION,MAKES ODD NOISES. DEALER SAID ITS FINE, BUT THE NOISE IS STILL THERE.SHORLY AFTER MY ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON...THE DEALER COULD NOT FIGURE WHAT WAS WRONG AFTER A 2 TO 3 WEEK AND COSTLY EXPENSE AND TIME...THEY SWITCHED OUT THE GAS TANK...COME TO FIND OUT, THAT WASN'T THE PROBLEM, THE ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON AGAIN, THEY SAID ONE OF THE PISTONS NEEDED REPLACING...$$$ THAT WAS A BIG EXPENSE AND TIME CONSUMING... EVERYTIME I TOOK IT TO THEM IT, SOMETHING WAS FIXED, THEY CHARGE, I PAY, AND THE ENGINE LIGHT WOULD TURN ON, IT GOT FRUSTRATING. TILL, THEY FINALLY GOT IT RIGHT. NOW MY CAR SOUNDS HORRIBLE (SHOCKS/SUSPENSION NOISE GOT WORSE) WHEN I GO OVER CITY BUMPS OR DRIVING EVEN SMALL LIKE HILLS, AND MIND YOU,WHICH IS DRIVEN BY MYSELF (FEMALE 124LBS) IT SHOULDN'T SQUEAK OR MAKE NOISES, THE BRAKES PEDAL MAKES A NOISE WHEN I PLACE MY FOOT ON IT....YES IT HAS 90K MILES AND IT'S AN 8 YEAR OLD CAR, BUT I KEPT UP WITH THE MAINTENANCES, I'VE TAKEN IT TO THE SAME DEALER SINCE IT WAS PURCHASED, ONLY DRIVE IT TO AND FROM WORK....THE CAR IS IN GOOD CONDITION, NO HIT/SCRATCHES/NO TEARS.... I CAN'T EXPLAIN WHY.... ARE THERE ANY OTHER RECALLS, THE DEALER ISN'T AWARE OF??? FOR INSTANCE THEY WERE NOT AWARE OF THE GAS TANK RECALL..WHICH THEY WERE CHARGING ME OVER $1200 TO REPAIR, HOW CAN I TRUST THEY ARE DOING THEIR JOB? *TR

WHEEL BEARINGS ON THE FRONT GOING BAD.HAVE TO REPLACE.*CN

DRIVING DOWN ROAD ON THE WAY TO HOSPITAL AND TRAILBLAZER MADE A LOUD CLUNK. THEN STARTED MAKING A WHIRRING NOISE. FINISHED DRIVING SLOWLY TO HOSPITAL AS NOT TO MESS ANYTHING ELSE UP. PULLED IN AND PARKED. GOT READY TO LEAVE HOSPITAL AND HAD NO REVERSE ONLY FOWARD.

MY KEY WILL NOT COME OUT OF THE IGNITION I HAD TO UNSCREW AND REMOVE THE BOTTOM OF MY STEERING TO PUSH THE BUTTON ALSO ALL OF MY INSTRUMENT GAUGE DO NOT WORK INCLUDING THE SPEEDOMETER AND ALL GAUGES SO I NEVER KNOW MY TEMPERATURE OR FUEL LEVEL, OIL PRESSURE THEY ALL ARE NOT WORKING PROPERLY MY SPEEDOMETER ONLY WORKS SOMETIMES. ALSO MY ENGINE IS RUNNY ROUGH AND I HEAR A VIBRATION AND TICKING. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS AND I'M GETTING CODE SAYING THERES A LEAK IN THE FUEL EVAP SYSTEM. I HAVE SEARCHED THE INTERNET AND EVERYONE HAS THE SAME PROBLEMS WITH THEIR 2003 TRAILBLAZERS. WHY ISN'T CHEVROLET RECALLING THESE PROBLEMS ITS FUSTRATING THEY WANT SEVERAL HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS I CANNOT AFFORD

I, ALONG WITH MANY OTHERS ARE EXPERIENCING MAJOR PROBLEMS WITH THE INSTRUMENT PANELS ON OUR CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. MY MOTHER TRADED HERS IN BECAUSE HER SPEEDOMETER WAS GOING OUT. BUT MY PROBLEM IS MUCH WORSE, MY WHOLE ENTIRE DASHBOARD IS OUT. MY GAS GAUGE DOESN'T WORK, MY SPEEDOMETER DOESN'T WORK, MY OIL PRESSURE DOESN'T WORK, MY THERMOSTAT DOESN'T WORK, NOTHING WORKS. MY CRUISE CONTROL ACTS UP TOO. *TR

I HAVE TWO PROBLEMS: WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT, HEADLIGHTS GO OFF, NOT WAY TO SEE, OTHER THAN PUT ON BRIGHTS. RIM, BROKE TO SMALL PIECES, HAD JUST GOTTEN OFF I 95, WAS ON OFF RAMP WHEN THE CAR STARTED MAKING A VERY LOUD AND SCARY NOISE, WE HAD TWO SMALL CHILDREN ONBOARD . HAD THIS HAPPEN WHILE ON I 95 WE COULD HAVE ALL BEEN DEAD. *TR

WHERE SHOULD I START? PURCHASED 03 TRAILBLAZER IN 2/08 W/ONLY 60,000 MILES. HAS BEEN IN SHOP 3 MONTHS..LOST COUNT OF COSTS. A/C AND HEAT NOT WORKING PROPERLY..NO HOT AIR; CLUTCH FAN REPLACED; TRANSMISSION SLIPPING; ENGINE CUTS OFF WHILE AT STOP-LIGHT. SHOULD I GO ON? YOU WOULD THINK W/ONLY 60,000 MILES ON IT--IT WAS JUST GETTING BROKEN IN. I HAVE NEVER BEEN SO DISAPPOINTED IN A TRUCK BEFORE..NOW I AM STUCK WITH THE TRUCK AND ITS PAYMENT...NO MORE MONEY TO REPAIR AND CAN'T AFFORD TO TRADE IN. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER EXT. WHILE THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 20 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME STIFF AND EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO MANEUVER. THE TRANSMISSION LINES LEAKED AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF FLUID. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE THE POWER STEERING AND TRANSMISSION LINES WERE REPLACED AT DIFFERENT TIMES.

STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT THE CAR WOULD NOT GO FORWARD WOULD GO BACKWARDS HAD JUST HAD TRANSMISSION REPLACED 1 YEAR BEFORE ONLY HAD 79K MILES BOUGHT THE CAR BRAND NEW BOTH DRIVER WINDOW MOTORS HAVE GONE OUT SEAL TO FRONT DRIVER DOOR TRANSMISSION REPLACE PWR STEERING--RACK AND PINIONS AND USUALLY HAVE REGULAR CHECK UP WORST CAR I HAVE EVER BOUGHT. *TR

IT WAS SLEETING AND I LOST CONTROL ON A CURVE. I HAD BEEN DRIVING ABOUT 50 MPH, BUT BRAKE BEFORE THE CURVE AND BRAKE VERY HARD WHEN I TRIED TO REGAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE, AS IT WAS SLIDING SIDEWAYS TOWARD THE CURVE. I WENT OFF THE CURVE AND HIT AN ELEVATED CROSSROAD, WHICH SENT THE VEHICLE AIRBORNE. I WAS AIRBORNE OVER MOST OF THE SIDE ROAD, WITH THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE HITTING JUST THE LAST FEW INCHES OF PAVEMENT, WHICH THEN SENT THE VEHICLE NOSEDIVING INTO THE DITCH. THE EMBANKMENTS WERE 4-5 FEET TALL. I HAD TWO VERY HARD FRONT END IMPACTS AND HIT MY HEAD ON THE STEERING WHEEL TWICE. THE FRAME OF THE VEHICLE WAS BENT AND THERE WAS A LOT OF DAMAGE TO THE UNDER OF THE VEHICLE, BUT THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN DEEMED A TOTAL LOSS BY MY INSURANCE COMPANY. I HAVE A LOT OF CONCERN WITH THE FACT THAT THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AND KNOW THAT THERE WERE OTHER VEHICLES OF MY YEAR AND TYPE THAT DID HAVE FAULTY AIRBAGS RECALLED, BUT MINE HAS NOT BEEN. *TR

MY SEATBELT LIGHT COMES ON. I TAKE IT TO THE DEALER FOR CORRECTION ALONG WITH OTHER MAINTENANCE ISSUES I HAD ABOUT MY VEHICLE. ALL THIS IS UNDER WARRANTY. AFTER REGULAR MAINTENANCE IS TAKEN CARE OF THE SEATBELT LIGHT STAYS ON. THE LIGHT NEVER GETS FIXED OR GOES OUT. THE VEHICLE WAS NEVER IN AN ACCIDENT THAT MAKES THE BAGS DEPLOY. I BRING THE TRUCK BACK MANY TIMES BUT THE ISSUE NEVER GETS TAKEN CARE OF. NOW THAT THE WARRANTY IS OFF THEY WANT TO CHARGE ME $1000 FOR REPAIRS THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN TAKEN CARE OF UNDER THE WARRANTY AND THE TRUCK WILL NOT PASS INSPECTION UNTIL THIS GETS TAKEN CARE OF.. *TR

THE PASSENGERS SIDE SEAT BELT LOCKED UP AND WOULD NOT COME OUT AT ALL RENDERING IT COMPLETELY USELESS. WE TOOK THE CAR TO A CHEVY DEALER AS WE WERE TOLD THAT BECAUSE THE SEAT BELT IS A SAFETY ISSUE IT SHOULD BE COVERED, HOWEVER WE WERE TOLD IT IS NOT COVERED AND GIVEN AN ESTIMATE OF ALMOST $300 TO REPAIR IT. *TR

FRONT PASSENGER SEAT BELT LOCKS UP AND YOU ARE SOMETIMES UNABLE TO USE IT. THIS HAD BEEN HAPPENING MORE AND MORE. AT FIRST YOU COULD KEEP MOVING IT BACK AND FORTH AND IT WOULD IMMEDIATELY COME LOOSE BUT AS TIME GOES BY, IT IS GETTING HARDER TO GET THE SEAT BELT TO COME LOOSE. *TR

IN NOVEMBER OF 2005 I WAS DRIVING ALONG WHEN FOR NO REASON I FELT A BURNING ON THE INSIDE OF MY LEFT THIGH. IT GOT SO HOT IT I ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF THE TRUCK. I HAD TO PULL OVER TO FIND OUT THAT IT WAS MY HEATED SEAT THAT HAD JUST BURNED OUT AND DOES NT WORK ANYMORE. AT THAT POINT I JUST FIGURED IT WAS JUST ANOTHER THING THAT BROKE, BUT ON 2/2/06 A PERSON I WORK WITH JUST TOLD ME SHE HAD THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM AND ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF HER VEHICLE. SHE HAS A 2004 BUICK RAINIER WHICH IS ALMOST THE SAME AS MY 2003 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER. AT THIS POINT I FELT THIS WAS A REAL SAFETY ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE LOOK INTO AND THAT'S WHY I AM ASKING FOR YOUR HELP IN THIS MATTER. *NM
