NOT YOUR ORDINARY SAFETY DEFECT BUT AN UNSAFE CONDITION NONETHELESS. I LIVE IN ARIZONA, A PLACE THAT TENDS TO GET A LITTLE WARM. WHEN THE VEHICLE HEAT SOAKS IN THE SUN THE REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY FAILS.THE DEALER HAS REPLACED THE MAIN RECEIVER BOARD AND THE ( 2 ) ENTRY TRANSMITTERS WITH NO EFFECT OTHER THAN MODIFYING THE FAILURE CHARACTERISTICS. THE ( 2 ) KEY TRANSMITTERS ALSO DO NOT OPERATE THE ENTRY SYSTEM IN AN IDENTICAL MANNER. ONE WILL OPERATE ALL ENTRY SYSTEM FUNCTIONS, THE OTHER ( TRANSMITTER #2 ) WILL NOT. THIS WILL CREATE A SEVERE PROBLEM IF IMMEDIATE ACCESS IS REQUIRED TO THE VEHICLE AND YOU CANNOT RELY ON THE SYSTEM TO HAVE THE VEHICLE UNLOCKED WHEN YOU GET TO IT. MY BROTHER, ALSO THE OWNER OF A 2002 TRAILBLAZER, IS COMPLAINING OF THE SAME PROBLEM.*AK

CONSUMER STATES THE SPRING RETRACTOR DOES NOT ALWAYS PULL THE BELT COMPLETELY CAUSING THE DOOR TO CLOSE ON THE BELT. IN THE EXTENDED POSITION THE SPRING DOES NOT HAVE ENOUGH TORQUE TO RETRACT THE WEIGHT OF THE BELT AND THE CLIP. DEALER REPLACED THE BELTS AND RETRACTOR ASSEMBLIES AND STATED THAT IT WAS DESIGNED AS NOT TO PUT TOO MUCH PRESSURE ON THE CHEST OF THE DRIVER OR PASSENGER. *TT
