Vehicle Diagnostic Summary – Trouble Codes Explained 1. P0562 – System Voltage Low The vehicle’s electrical system is running at low voltage. This could be due to a weak battery, a failing alternator, or poor electrical connections. It may cause various electronic issues and unexpected shutdowns if not fixed. 2. P1005 – Fuel Level Sensor Control Module: Too Many Resets The fuel level sensor module has been reset too many times, likely due to electrical glitches. This may cause the fuel gauge to be inaccurate or unstable. 3. P14C0 / P14CD – Fuel Pump Driver Control Module Signal Error There is a configuration signal error from the fuel pump control module. This could lead to fuel delivery problems, starting issues, or engine stalling if it worsens. 4.

Month of June of 2024 I purchased 2021 Chevrolet Trailblazer LT with 31k miles on the odometer I had to service my vehicle and had to replace the fuel pump, took weeks to get in due to the strike that took place, Chevrolet will not back behind their employees nor their consumers. They only honored me 15pts on my vehicle, a few months pass and more issues arise one being the manifold sensor (a) and then another two days on the road the wiring harness thankfully my car was under a secondary warranty and I paid $200 per repair, although this became a very costly month being $600 car payment and $400 in repairs in a matter of a few months owning the vehicle, I am having similar issues again with the wiring harness a year later.

On [XXX] while driving on the highway my check engine light came on. The car turned off while going 60MPH on the 18 mile stretch towards Miami from Key west and luckily there were no cars around me. I checked for the code and it was P1467 for the Evap Purge Pump. I took it to a dealership in Miami and they told me it would be fine to drive that the part needed to be replaced. I drove back to key west and bought the replacement part. That same part did not work. I checked to see if the part was receiving voltage and it was. So i will continue with going to the dealership. My wife and son have developed a cough from having to constantly smell the fumes due to their existing asthma. I will never buy another chevy again.

IN January my fuel gage stopped working , unable to know how much gas I had. The fuel pump and floater needed to be replaced If fuel was not getting to the engine the vehicle would stop working causing a possible accident with other drivers . I did not use this vehicle for many days until a mechanic cleared for useage . It cost me $320.00 of my own money to fix this for safety concerns. As of today 1/22/25 I has been fixed by A-Plus in North Fort Myers.

I have brought my car into the dealership over the last few years at least 6 times for the same issues. Currently there are two codes coming up as permanent on my car which is for the Evaporative Emission System Flow and Brake Booster Hydraulics performance. I drive my child of three every day and the number of times my check engine light comes on and goes into reduced engine power is not okay nor safe.

05/29/24 I took this vehicle to Cronic Chevrolet in Griffin, Ga due to check engine light being on. Code detected purge pump it was still under warranty at that time only had 43,906 miles on had to get the purge pump replaced. Several weeks after getting it back I kept getting a shift to park message come up when trying to put it in park then started having trouble getting it to go into drive. I have had so many close calls from people almost bashing into me because my car will not go into drive and you constantly have to switch in and out of gears for it to finally go in. Its sucking the had right out due to it not shifting gears properly. The code reader detected transmission control module which I find to be faulty and understand there are serval recalls on this specific vehicle , when it started this issue it didn’t even have 50,000 miles on it!

Very strong gas smells coming from under the hood. After driving a few miles, fumes enter the passenger compartment. Had to stop parking it in our garage for fear of a fire before I could get it into the dealer. I've been told it's a fuel leak associated with the fuel rail system. I'm 20 days past my warranty and only at 29,000 miles. It's a nearly $2000 fix. GM was aware of the problem in 2021 as there is a service bulletin for this item. I should have been notified in 2021 that there was a possible problem which could lead to a fire or explosion.

Took to mechanic due to strong fuel smell coming from engine area. Mechanic said not safe to drive - fuel rail leaking and must be replaced - vehicle could catch fire or explode! I drive grandchildren in this vehicle and was shook up! Vehicle towed to GM dealer who said I was 3400 miles passed my warranty but they would start work on my $3k repair. I’m outraged that GM cares so little about this known issue from the GM bulletin PIP 5765 which was published 11/18/20. All this time they have known about faulty and dangerous part but only send recalls for minor issues like possible faulty tire jack.

3 times in the last year while we were driving the acceleration wen very high like from 50 to all of a sudden went up to about 80. I had to stand on the brake and try to pull over. Still accelerating I put it in park and shut it off. When you restart it it drive fine again. This has happened three times and the dealership says they can't find a problem. We are stuck driving a death trap. Please help. They wanna charge diagnosis everything I take it in. Then they say they can't find nothing. Now I am finding others that have had same issue and dealership says there is no problem. This has got to be destroying the engine reving at such high speeds.

Found out GM has Service bulliten for this PIP5765 that covers both Chevy Trailblazer with 1.3l and Buick Encore GX with 1.3l motors.
