SPEEDOMETER STOPPED WORKING A FEW TIMES UNTIL IT COMPLETELY HAS GONE DEAD AND DOESN'T WORK AT ALL. MY TRAILBLAZER ALSO HAS STALLED IF STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT MORE THAN ONCE. *TR

HIT BLACK ICE. TRUCK SLID OFF THE ROAD AND FRONT END IMPACTED THE DITCH CAUSING HEAVY DAMAGE TO THE FRONT END. AIR BAG FAILED TO DEPLOY CAUSING INJURY. *JS
