I HAVE A 2002 CHEV. TRAILBLAZER AND 2 WEEKS AGO THE SPEEDOMETER WENT UPSIDE DOWN- IT IS NOT TELLING ME I AM GOING OVER 100MPH OR IT TELLS ME IM GOING 0-TO NOTHING. THE GAUGE IS UPSIDE DOWN AND WILL COST OVER 500 TO GET IF FIXED THIS IS A NEW VEHICLE I DON'T THINK THIS IS FAIR- IF IT WERE A 95 MODEL I WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED BUT HOW MANY VEHICLES LOOSE A SPEEDOMETER GAUGE OVER WITHIN A VEHICLE THAT NEW? *TR

REAR HATCH (TAILGATE) WINDOW WILL RELEASE WHILE DRIVING WITHOUT WARNING. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. WHEN THIS OCCURS, ALL THE INTERIOR LIGHTS COME ON, WHICH CAN BE QUITE DANGEROUS AT NIGHT. IN ADDITION, ITEMS CAN FALL OUT OF THE UNSECURED REAR HATCH (TAILGATE) WINDOW. I HAVE TRIED LUBRICATING THE MECHANISM, AS WELL AS CHECKING REGULARLY THAT IT IS SECURED, BUT THERE HAS BEEN NO IMPROVEMENT. *TR
