2007 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER Complaints

AT A RED LIGHT AND ATTEMPTED TO CLOSE THE DRIVER'S SIDE ELECTRIC WINDOW. WHEN I PRESSED THE BUTTOM TO RAISE THE WINDOW THE WINDOW STOPPED RAISING TO A CLOSED POSITION AND HEARD A LOUD NOISE SIMILAR TO GLASS CRUMBLING INSIDE DRIVER DOOR. IS THE REGULATOR COVERED UNDER A RECALL. I PREVIOUSLY HAD THE DRIVER'S DOOR MASTER POWER WINDOW SWITCH MODULE REPLACED DUE TO A RECALL. I HAVE ALWAYS HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW MECHANISM ALWAYS SLOWING DOWN AND STOPPING MIDWAY DURING COLD TEMPERATURES.

SHORTLY AFTER CHRISTMAS 2015, WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET THE RED LIGHT ON THE GAS GUAGE CAME ON AND THE GAUGE SHOWED EMPTY. HAVING JUST FILLED THE TANK EARLIER THAT DAY I THOUGHT THE GAS HAD BEEN STOLEN. I PULLED INTO A STATION TO REFILL BUT IT WAS STILL FULL. FOR THE NEXT FIVE WEEKS THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON AND THE GAUGE ONLY WORKED OCCASIONALLY. IT WASN'T A DANGEROUS SITUATION BUT AFTER A FEW WEEKS OF GUESSING HOW MUCH GAS WAS IN IT, I TOOK IT TO A REPAIRMAN WHO REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP MODULE ASSEMBLY FOR A MERE $767.04. THE ODOMETER IS ONLY AT 47,760.

THE HEADLIGHTS ON THE VEHICLE GO OUT AT RANDOM TIMES, SEVERAL TIMES WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT THE LIGHTS HAVE GONE OUT, THE LAST TIME I WAS ENTERING A HIGHWAY AND ENDED UP USING THE HIGH BEAMS SO I WOULDN'T GO OFF THE ROAD. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SAFETY CONCERN.

DRIVING AT NIGHT MY HEADLIGHTS QUIT WORKING. LIKE DOZENS OF OTHER COMPLAINTS TO NHSTA, I CONTACTED GENERAL MOTORS BUT THIS VIN WAS NOT COVERED ON NHSTA ID 14V7550, GM RECALL 14291. THE REPAIR COST $80 BUT GM HAS REFUSED TO HONOR MY REQUEST FOR REIMBURSEMENT. WHEN IS NHSTA GOING TO DO IT'S JOB AND FORCE GM TO EXPAND THE NUMBER OF VINS THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN INCLUDED. I AM SURE THERE ARE PROABALY HUNDREDS IF NOT THOUSANDS OF OTHER OWNERS LIKE ME. THE LOSS OF HEADLIGHTS AT NIGHT IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM AND SHOULD RECEIVE MUICH QUICKER ACTION FROM THE NHSTA ON THE VINS TO BE INCLUDED.

HEADLIGHT FAIL - THEY INTERMITTENTLY TURN OFF BY THEMSELVES WHILE DRIVING AND EVENTUALLY TURN BACK ON. THIS HAPPENS VERY OFTEN AND I AM VERY AFRAID OF MY SAFETY AND ALSO OF MY FAMILY.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS WILL NOT WORK. ONLY HIGH BEAMS. BEGAN INTERMITTENTLY BUT NOW WILL NOT WORK ON LOW BEAMS AT ALL. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THIS WAS NOT LISTED UNDER THE RECALL HOWEVER IT IS THE EXACT PROBLEM.
