2005 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER Complaints

I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT WHERE ANOTHER DRIVER PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF ME CROSSING ONCOMING TRAFFIC. I HIT HIM BROADSIDE DOING APPROXIMATELY 30-35 MILES PER HOUR. MY FRONT END WAS NEARLY SHOVED ALL THE WAY UP TO THE WINDSHIELD. MY 2005 TRAILBLAZER WAS TOTALED. MY AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY AND IF IT WASN'T FOR MY SEATBELT I WOULD HAVE WENT THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD THE IMPACT WAS SO HARD. I SUSTAINED A HURT SHOULDER AND ARM AND PROBABLY WOULDN'T HAD SUCH A PAINFUL INJURY IF THE AIRBAG HAD OF DEPLOYED. *TR

CRUISE CONTROL ON 2005 TRAILBLAZER WHEN THE RESUME IS PUSHED IT WILL GO WIDE OPEN UNTIL IT GETS BACK TO SPEED ,WHICH COULD CAUSE A CRASH IF IT WAS UNEXPECTED. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER. THE FUEL GAUGE KEEPS SHOWING EMPTY WHEN THE TANK IS FULL. I ALMOST GOT INTO AND ACCIDENT ON THE BELTWAY TODAY BECAUSE MY CAR JUST SHUT OFF OF THE HIGHWAY. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO GLIDE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WITHOUT KILLING ANYONE OR MYSELF. SOME FRIENDS FROM WORK BROUGHT ME SOME GAS WHICH GOT ME HOME AS SOON AS I WAS A BLOCK AWAY FROM MY HOUSE THE CAR SHUT OFF AGAIN. AGAIN I HAD TO REFUEL JUST TO GET TO THE COMPLEX WHERE I LIVE. I HAD MY TWO CHILDREN IN THE CAR AND ONLY GOD KNOWS WHAT COULD HAPPEN IF I JUST SHUT DOWN AND I HAVE A SPEEDER BEHIND ME. I HAVE SEEN MANY OTHER CHEVY OWNERS VOICING THEIR COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SAME ISSUE. I HOPE THAT SOMEONE DOES NOT HAVE TO DIE FOR THEM TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT LIKE THE TOYOTA DEALERS.

1.) NO EVENTS TOOK PLACE DASHBOARD CLUSTER JUST FAILED. 2.) SPEEDOMETER, OIL GAGE, RPM, GAS GAUGE EVERYTHING WENT HAYWIRE, IMPOSSIBLE TO TELL SPEED... 3.) MY UNDERSTANDING IS THE DASH BOARD CLUSTER IS BAD, ITS 450-600 DOLLARS TO REPAIR, THERE HAS BEEN ALOT OF COMPLAINTS BUT NO RECALL YET? THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL, THIS ISSUE IS WELL DOCUMENTED AND KNOWN ABOUT... THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE, THE SPEEDOMETER SHOULD WORK, THE INSTRUMENTS SHOULD WORK. *TR
