2002 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER Complaints

I HAVE A 2002 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER. ALL SEAT BELTS HAVE WORKED EXCEPT THE PASSENGER ONE STICKS NOW AND THEN WHEN YOU BREAK; IT WON'T RELEASE. BUT I HAVE A BIGGER ISSUE. THE MIDDLE BACK SEAT BELT WILL NOT LONGER WORK. WHEN YOU GO TO PULL IT OUT OF THE SEAT FOR USE, IT WILL NOT MOVE. I'VE TRIED EVERYTHING. IT JUST STOPPED WORKING. I CALLED A CHEVY DEALER ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND THEY STATED THEY COULD LOOK AT IT AND FIX IT AT MY OWN EXPENSE. I UNDERSTAND THINGS GO ON CARS AND IT'S MY RESPONSIBILITY, BUT A SEAT BELT THAT WON'T COME OUT AND WORK???? HOW IS THAT MY PROBLEM AND NOT A DEFECT WITH THE CAR????? PLEASE HELP OR ADVISE. THANK YOU SO MUCH. THEY MAY HAVE TO REPLACE THE WHOLE SEAT AND WHAT WOULD THAT COST? *JB

IN 2005 MY 2002 TRAILBLAZER - HAD SMELLING FUMES, SES LIGHT, AND A BAD DIAGNOSIS FROM THE DEALER. PARTLY DUE TO THE CODES COMING UP FOR THE EVAP SYSTEM AND RELATED PURGE. AFTER SEVERAL RESETS OF THE SES LIGHT, ONE TECH FOUND GAS DRIPPING FROM UNDER THE THE TANK. THE TANK WAS REPLACED AT NO CHARGE. IN 2007 THE SAME PROBLEMS AGAIN - HAD SMELLING FUMES, SES LIGHT, WHEN DEALER WAS CONTACTED THEY SAID THAT THE WARRANTY HAD EXPIRE. WE SHOWED THEM A LETTER THAT STAID THAT THIS WAS AN ACTUAL PROBLEM AND THAT CHEVROLET WILL REPLACE THE FUEL AT THE END THEY REPACED THE FUEL TANK AT NO CHARGE. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR THE EXTERIOR LIGHTING:TAIL LIGHTS. ON AUGUST 18, 2007, HE ARRIVED AT THE DEALER TO HAVE THE VEHICLE REPAIRED. AFTER SERVICING THE VEHICLE FOR FIVE HOURS, THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE COULD NOT BE REPAIRED. THE REASON WAS BECAUSE THERE WAS A PART IN FRONT OF THE DEFECTIVE PART AND, IF THE MECHANIC BROKE THE PART THAT WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL, THEN THE DEALER WOULD NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGES. THE DEALER FURTHER STATED THAT THE RESPONSIBILITY AND REPAIR COSTS WOULD FALL ON THE CONTACT. AS A RESULT, THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED AND THE TAIL LIGHTS CONTINUE TO FAIL. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THEY ARE LOOKING INTO THE MATTER, BUT CANNOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE AT THIS TIME. AS OF AUGUST 21, 2007, THE MANUFACTURER HAS STILL NOT RESPONDED. THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 100,000.

BOTH BRAKE LIGHTS CONSTANTLY FAIL. IM TIRED OF GOING BACK TO THE DEALER, HAVING THEM TELL ME THEY'VE CORRECTED THE PROBLEM AND A FEW DAYS LATER MY BRAKE LIGHTS ARE OUT AGAIN. IT IS TRULY A PAIN TO TRAVEL WITH INFANTS KNOWING THAT THE BACK BRAKE LIGHTS ARE OUT. WE'VE ATTEMPTED EVERYTHING POSSIBLE AND THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTS. THERE APPEARS TO BE NO LONG TERM OR PERMANENT FIX. *TR

REFER TO NHTSA ACTION NUMBER: PE07013 AND EA07009 . . . . ODI HAS RECEIVED REPORTS THAT THE FUEL PUMP MODULE LEAKS FUEL AND OR VAPOR UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE. GM STATES, "THE FAILURE MECHANISM IS CORROSION OF THE FUEL PUMP MODULE FLANGE WHICH MAY LEAD TO A FUEL LEAK. CORROSION OF THE FUEL PUMP MODULE FLANGE IS THE RESULT OF THE VEHICLE OPERATING IN A CORROSIVE ENVIRONMENT." ODI HAS OPENED THIS ENGINEERING ANALYSIS TO FURTHER ASSESS THIS ISSUE. *JB
