MOST OF THE TIME THE GAUGES DO NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY OR NOT AT ALL. *TR

THE CONTROLS IN THE FRONT DOORS FOR THE WINDOWS STOPPED WORKING. THERE WAS A SLIGHTLY BURNT SMELL WHEN I GOT IN THE CAR THAT DAY. NOW THERE IS A CLICKING SOUND IN MY DRIVERS DOOR THAT HAPPENS ABOUT EVERY 35-45 SECONDS EVEN WHEN THE VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF. WHEN THIS CLICKING SOUND OCCURS WHILE THE VEHICLE IS RUNNING MY ENGINE LOSES POWER. THIS IS ALSO KILLING MY BATTERY EVERY NIGHT BECAUSE IT IS OCCURRING EVEN WITH THE VEHICLE TURNED OFF WITH NO KEYS IN THE IGNITION. I AM AFRAID IT IS GOING TO START A FIRE IN MY DOOR. THERE IS ALREADY A RECALL FOR THE 2006 AND 2007 FOR THIS EXACT SAME ISSUE. 2005 NEEDS TO BE ADDED TO THE LIST BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. *TR

2005 CHEVERLOT TRAILBLAZER HAS HAD AN ISSUE SINCE I PURCHASED IT IN 2004 WITH STALLING OUT. HOWEVER OVER THE LAST 4 YEARS I HAVE HAD AN ISSUE OF NO START... EVERYTHING HAS BEEN REPLACED BY THE DEALER IGNITION SWITCH, ALTERNATOR, STARTER, EXHAUST, ETC.... LAST RESULT WAS THE PCM POWERTRAIN MODULE SUPPOSEDLY THE BRAINS OF THE CAR. HOWEVER THE SAME DAY IT STALLED AGAIN, MOST RECENTLY MY DEALERSHIP TOOK IT FOR A WEEK AND SAID THEY COULD NOT REDUPLICATE ISSUE. SO THERE AGAIN I AM AT THE SAME PLACE WHERE THE CAR WILL BE FINE FOR WEEKS THEN DO A NO START UNTILL AFTER SERVERAL ATTEMPTS AND SMELL OF GAS FINALLY THE CAR WILL START. CHEVRELOT TRAILBLAZER HAVE KNOWN THIS PROBLEM FOR AWHILE HAS DONE NOTHING ABOUT IT ...RESOLVE THE ISSUE AND DO A RECALL SPENT OVER $10,000 ON JUST MAINTENANCE.. WHAT IS CHEVY GOING TO DO ABOUT THIS ISSUE? *TR ## VIN FAILED ##
