2021 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER Complaints

The contact owns a 2021 Chevrolet Trailblazer equipped with Continental tires, Tire Line: Pro Contact, Tire Size: 225/60/R17, DOT Number: 16YOF98YW. The contact stated that while his son was driving at an undisclosed speed, the tire pressure warning light was illuminated then the front passenger side tire had a blowout. The contact's son pulled over on the side of the road and contacted a tow truck company for assistance. The tow truck driver replaced the tire with the spare tire. The dealer was made aware of the failure but informed the contact that there was no defect with the tire. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 2,100.

I WAS DRIVING MY BRAND NEW 2021 TRAILBLAZER (ONLY 160 MILES) AND STEPPED ON THE BRAKE TO STOP AT THE END OF A STREET. SUDDENLY, I GOT ALERTS THAT MY BRAKE SYSTEM HAD FAILED AND RIGHT AFTER THAT, ANOTHER ONE, SAYING THAT THE POWER STEERING NEEDED TO BE SERVICED. AT THAT POINT, IT REQUIRED MUCH MORE PRESSURE ON THE BRAKE TO STOP, AND THE BRAKES DIDN'T SEEM VERY RESPONSIVE. LATER I SHUT OFF THE ENGINE, AND WHEN I STARTED IT AGAIN, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS STILL ON, BUT I THINK THE BRAKES WERE WORKING AGAIN. I'M NOT SURE BECAUSE I DIDN'T WANT TO DRIVE IT, JUST IN CASE.

STABILITRAK STABILITY CONTROL SERVICE AND SERVICE ANTILOCK BRAKING SYSYTEM 2 TIMES SINCE I HAVE OWNED IT FOR ABOUT 2 MONTHS

TWO TIMES I HAVE HEARD A LOUD POP NOISE COMING THROUGH MY STEREO SPEAKERS. I NOTICED IT WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES. I WENT ON A TRAILBLAZER FORUM AND A FEW OTHERS HAD REPORTED THE SAME THING. I HEARD THE POP TODAY WHEN I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING SPOT AND APPLYING THE BRAKES.

THE BRAKES INCLUDING BRAKE ASSIST STOPPED WORKING. PRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL DID LITTLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THERE WAS RECALL FOR THIS SAME ISSUE THAT WAS PREFORMED BY THE DEALERSHIP 3 WEEKS AGO.

WHEN PARKING OR ABOUT TO MOVE AND YOU PUT FOOT ON BRAKE AND GET INTO A GEAR A LOUD AUDIBLE POPPING NOISE COMES THROUGH THE STEREO SYSTEM. IT IS VERY LOUD AND NOT BASED ON HOW LOW OR HIGH THE VOLUME OF THE STEREO IS SET. THERE IS A THREAD ON TRAILBLAZERTALK.COM ABOUT IT NOW.
