2004 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER Complaints

WHILE DRIVING MY 2004 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER HOME FROM WORK ABOUT 3 MONTHS AGO I NOTICED MY SPEEDOMETER READING AT 0, HOWEVER I WAS DRIVING APPROX. 30 MILES PER HOUR AT THE TIME. I ACCELERATED TO CHECK TO SEE IF THAT WOULD MAKE THE SPEEDOMETER MOVE ABOVE 0, BUT IT STAYED AT 0. I INFORMED MY SPOUSE OF THIS SPEEDOMETER MISREAD AND HE ATTRIBUTED IT TO THE COLD WEATHER. MY SPOUSE THOUGHT THAT THE SPEEDOMETER WOULD RETURN TO NORMAL ONCE THE WEATHER WARMED UP. WELL, THE TEMPERATURE WARMED TO 65 DEGREES AND ONCE AGAIN MY SPEEDOMETER CONTINUED TO MALFUNCTION AND READ BELOW 0, WHILE DRIVING. MY HUSBAND HAS ALSO NOTICED THAT THE SPEEDOMETER WASN'T WORKING WHILE HE WAS DRIVING. THEY SPEEDOMETER JUST STOPS WORKING SOMETIMES WITHOUT WARNING. TWO WEEKS AGO MY FAMILY AND I STARTED OUT ON A 180 MILE HIGHWAY TRIP AND WITHIN 20 MILES FROM MY HOME THE SPEEDOMETER JUST STARTED DESCENDING TO BELOW 0 WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND IT REMAINED THERE FOR THE ENTIRE TRIP!!!!! I FEEL THAT THIS IS A VERY HAZARDOUS SITUATION AND THESE VEHICLES SHOULD BE RECALLED. AFTER FINDING NUMEROUS OTHER CHEVY OWNERS EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM, IT FRUSTRATES ME TO THINK THAT CHEVY DOES NOT FEEL THAT THIS ISN'T IMPORTANT ENOUGH OR SERIOUS ENOUGH TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM AT THEIR EXPENSE!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS IS MY ONLY VEHICLE AND I DEPEND ON THE SAFETY OF THIS VEHICLE TO TRANSPORT MY FAMILY WHICH INCLUDES A 3YR. OLD AND 13YR. OLD EVERY DAY TO SCHOOL AND DAYCARE. AND FURTHERMORE, I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT GETTING A SPEEDING TICKET BECAUSE I AM UNAWARE OF MY ACTUAL SPEED. I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO ALTER MY TRAVEL PLANS IN FEAR OF GETTING PULLED OVER ON THE HIGHWAY FOR THIS SPEEDOMETER MALFUNCTIONING EITHER. PLEASE RECALL THESE VEHICLES IMMEDIATELY. *TR

THE FRONT AIR VENTS IN MY 2004 TRAILBLAZER QUIT WORKING AFTER I INSTALLED A NEW BATTERY. MY FRONT AIR VENTS WILL NO LONGER WORK. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS ON THE INTERNET IT APPEARS THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE CHEVY TRAILBLAZER. IT WILL REQUIRE THE PURCHASE AND INSTALLATION OF A NEW CONTROL MODULE TO REGULATE THE AIR FLOW SO THE VENTS WILL WORK. THIS IS A COMPONENT/DESIGN PROBLEM THAT GM NEEDS TO FIX NOT THE CONSUMER. *TR

SPEEDOMETER STARTED GIVING INCORRECT READINGS. SOMETIMES IT IS CORRECT, SOMETIMES 10 MPH OFF, SOMETIMES NOT WORKING AT ALL. WHEN IT FIRST HAPPENED I FOUND MYSELF DOING OVER 80MPH IN A 65MPH ZONE. I ONLY FOUND OUT FROM MY SON IN THE BACK SEAT WITH HIS GPS LETTING ME KNOW HOW FAST I WAS GOING. OTHER WISE DON'T' KNOW WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED. *TR

I HAVE A 2004 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. THE INSTRUMENT PANEL ONLY WORKS INTERMITTENTLY. I HAVE CHECKED THE INTERNET AND THIS SEEMS TO BE ONE OF THE MOST NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS. I FEEL AS IF THIS PRESENT A SAFETY HAZARD. SINCE THIS IS YOUR JOB TO PROTECT THE PUBLIC FROM DEFECTIVE AUTOMOBILES I FEEL YOU SHOULD INVESTIGATE THIS MATTER. THANK YOU. RANDALL SALTINK

SPEEDOMETER SLOWLY STOPPED WORKING THEN ALL THE OTHER GAUGES FAILED. THE GAUGES DO NOT WORK INCLUDING THE SPEEDOMETER, RPM GAUGES, GAS LEVEL, OIL LEVEL, BATTERY LEVEL AND ALSO TEMPERATURE GAUGE DOES NOT WORK. THE FAILURE IS ALWAYS WHILE DRIVING NEVER HAVE THE WORKED SINCE THE FIRST INCIDENCE.

ALL OF MY GAUGES ON MY DASHBOARD COMPLETELY TURN OFF AND THEN RANDOMLY TURN BACK ON. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AROUND WITH NO SPEEDOMETER, GAS GAUGE, OLIL, BATTERY, TACHOMETER OR ODOMETER ON. THEN IT ALL OF A SUDDEN WILL TURN ON. IT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. I TOOK IT TO A REPAIR SHOP AND THEY SAID IT WOULD COST AROUND $500 IF NOT MORE TO HAVE THEM TAKE APART MY DASH AND LOOK AND THEN POSSIBLY SEND IT OUT TO SEEIF IT CAN BE FI.XED THERE ARE NUMEROUS PEOPLE I HAVE FOUND ONLINE WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM WITH THE SAME VEHICLE.

I JUST BOUGHT A USED '04 TRAILBLAZER WITH 63000 MILES AND THE SPEEDOMETER IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY...THE NEEDLE IS JUST POINTING SOUTH! *CN

THERE HAVE NOT BEEN ANY ACCIDENTS OR INJURIES YET, THAT I KNOW OF. THERE HAVE, HOWEVER, BEEN MANY COMPLAINTS THAT I HAVE SEEN FOR THE SAME PROBLEM I AM HAVING AND CHEVY DOES NOT CARE. THE SPEEDOMETER AND OTHER GAUGES ON MY 2004 TRAILBLAZER DO NOT WORK CORRECTLY, THE SPEEDOMETER CAN READ 0-120 WHEN AT A COMPLETE STOP. THEREFORE WE NEVER KNOW HOW FAST WE ARE GOING AND WITH CHILDREN IN THE VEHICLE THIS IS VERY DISTURBING. BESIDES THE GAUGES THE WIRES FOR THE HEADLIGHTS KEEP BURNING. I WAS TOLD WHEN I HAD THE FIRST ONE FIXED THAT IT IS VERY COMMON IN THESE VEHICLES. THE FACT THAT BOTH OF THESE PROBLEMS ARE SO COMMON WITH MANY CHEVY VEHICLES AND THEY ARE RECALLING SOME AND NOT ALL, I GUESS I JUST WANT TO KNOW WHY NOT ALL? *CN
