2005 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER Complaints

THE LOW FUEL GAUGE INDICATOR REMAINS ON EVEN AFTER I FILL MY FUEL TANK. THE INDICATOR NEVER GOES OFF AT ANYTIME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE DISPLAYED INACCURATE FUEL AMOUNTS. AFTER FILLING THE FUEL TANK WITH FUEL, THE FUEL GAUGE DISPLAYED THAT THE TANK WAS EMPTY. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 73,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY WITHOUT THE KEYS IN THE IGNITION, A FIRE ORIGINATED FROM THE DRIVER'S DOOR NEAR THE WINDOW SWITCH. THE CONTACT EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 159,000.

SINCE 2011 I'VE BEEN HAVING WRONG READING OF GAS LEVELS CAUSING MY VEHICLE TO SHUTOFF. PLUS MY PASSAGER AIR BAG DISPLAYS ON WHEN NO ONE IS SITTING IN SEAT AND WHEN SOMEONE IS SITTING IN PASSAGER SEAT IT OCCASIONALLY FLICKER ON AND OFF. HOWEVER I HAVE NOT HAD A INCIDENT JUST YET BUT I'M VERY CONCERNED AND DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING WITH MY KIDS IN THIS VEHICLE.

AS OF 2011 (WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAYS IN MULTIPLE OCCASIONS) I'VE BEEN HAVING ELECTRICAL ISSUES SUCH AS MY FUEL LEVEL GAGE WOULD READ FULL AND VEHICLE WOULD SHUT OFF CAUSE NO GAS IN TANK, AIR BAGS SENSOR WOULD SHOW IT ON WHEN NO ONE IS SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT, AND THERE ARE SOME ELECTRICAL ISSUES ON DRIVER SEAT CONTROLS NOT WORKING, DASH BOARD GAGES NOT SHOWING READINGS WHILE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION (RMP, SPEEDOMETER, OIL, GAS).

HEAD ON COLLISION BOTH VEHICLES TRAVELING ABOUT 30MPH ON IMPACT AND TRAILBLAZER AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. I HAD MY SEATBELT ON AND WAS NOT INJURED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, SMOKE EMITTED FROM THE HOOD. THE CONTACT PULLED OVER AND DISCOVERED FLAMES UNDER THE HOOD. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FAILURE WAS DUE TO A FAILED GM/AC DELCO TRANSMISSION COOLANT LINE FITTING, WHICH CAUSED TRANSMISSION COOLANT TO LEAK OUT ONTO THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER AND EXHAUST SYSTEM. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 120,000.

THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM IN MY 2005 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER LS AT TIMES DOES NOT WORK. WHEN I APPLY MY BRAKE THE BRAKE MAKES A NOISE SOUNDING LIKE GRINDING, NOT CATCHING OR HOLDING, SLIPS AND GOES TO THE FLOOR. I HAVE TO RAPIDLY ACT WITH SWIFTNESS WITHIN A SHORT TIME TO REAPPLY MY BRAKES IN HOPES THEY WORK. THE BRAKES SOMETIMES FAIL ON BUMPY ROADS, GOING OVER RAILROAD TRACKS, COMING TO A STOP AT LOW SPEED, EVEN ON SMOOTH ROADWAYS, AT TIMES ENTERING ON-RAMPS, AND TURNING CORNERS. I HAVE BEEN GOING OVER GM'S EXPANDED RECALLS TO FIX THE PROBLEM WITH TRUCK AND SUV'S BRAKES THE DATE I SAW WAS 12/23/2005. CAN I GET HELP WITH THIS PROBLEM???

THE SPEEDOMETER WILL NOT WORK PROPERLY. IT WILL BE STUCK AND THEN IT WILL NOT DISPLAY THE CORRECT SPEED WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR FOR 2 YEARS. ALSO THE FAN CONTROL SWITCH STOPS WORKING AT THE SAME RATE. SOME DAYS IT WORKS AND SOME DAYS IT WON'T.

SPEEDOMETER DOES NOT WORK MOST OFTEN AND WHEN IT DOES, DOES NOT SHOW AN ACCURATE READING.
