2007 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER Complaints

2007 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER GAS SENSOR LEVEL. GAS GAGE ALWAYS READS EMPTY EVEN WHEN TOTALY FULL. *TR

MY 2007 CHEVY TRAILBLAZERS' FUEL GAUGE DOES NOT FUNCTION AT ALL. IT RANDOMLY LOST ABILITY TO GAUGE ON AND OFF FOR A MONTH AND NOW FINALLY ALWAYS READS EMPTY. WE RAN OUT OF GAS ON THE INTERSTATE, BELIEVING WE HAD FUEL. *TR

ANTISKID WARNING LIGHTS ALWAYS ON INDICATING AN ANTISKID MALFUNCTION. LOW TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT ALWAYS ON EVEN THOUGH TIRES ARE ADEQUATE. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON FOR A FEW DAYS/WEEKS AND TURNS OFF AGAIN. HAD THE VEHICLE CHECKED AND THERE WAS NO INDICATION THAT ANYTHING WAS WRONG. FUEL GAUGE READS EMPTY EVEN WHEN FULL. ALL LIGHTS HAVE TURNED OFF WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. TRIED TO SHUT OFF THE ENGINE, EVEN REMOVED THE KEY, BUT THE ENGINE REMAINED RUNNING. *TR

ONE DAY I WAS DRIVING MY TRAILBLAZER AFTER I FILLED IT UP AND A FEW MILES DOWN THE ROAD THE GAS GAUGUE WENT TO EMPTY.IT DOES EVERYTIME TIME I FILL UP IT WILL GOT TO FULL THEN GOES TO EPMTY RIGHT DOWN THE ROAD. BEEN DOING SINCE NOVEMBER 0F 2010 (88,000) AND AS OF MARCH 2011 (94,000) ITS STILL DOING IT. I HAVE TO CALCULATE MY GAS MILAGE. I CALLED COX THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY WONT FIX IT FOR FREE THERE IS NO RECALL ON THIS AND THERE SHOULD BE. THERE IS HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS. I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY ONCE IN THE FAST LANE WITH MY 2 YEAR OLD SON AND I RAN OUT OF GAS AND ALMOST GOT HIT BY 2 CARS BEHIND ME. I GOT STRANDED FOR 2 1/2 HOURS TILL I GOT SOMEONE TO BRING ME GAS. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *TR

MY 2007 TRAILBLAZER RUNS OUT OF GAS WHEN GAUGE SAYS FULL, HAVE RUN OUT AT 70 MPH WITHOUT NOTICE ON HIGHWAY. HAVE NO IDEA WHEN IT IS WORKING OR NOT WILL SHOW FULL ONE MINUTE THEN EMPTY THE NEXT. REPAIR IS COSTLY AND HAVE RESULTED TO RESETTING TRIP METER, HOWEVER IF I FORGET OR SIT IN TRAFFIC MORE THAN USUAL IT IS NOT ACCURATE. I HAVE RUN OUT OF GAS MORE TIMES IN THE LAST 6 MONTHS THAN MY WHOLE LIFE. VERY UNSETTLING TO BE STRANDED NOT TO MENTION UNSAFE TO BE IN CAR NOT KNOWING WHEN GOING TO JUST STOP. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT IT IS THE FUEL SENDING UNIT. THERE ARE MANY MANY 2005 - 2007 TRAILBLAZER OWNERS ON NUMEROUS CHAT AND COMPLAINT BOARDS, WHY IS THERE NOT A RECALL. I ONLY HAVE 65,000 MILES THIS IS RIDICULOUS AND NOT SAFE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR

FUEL SENDER/GAUGE DOES NOT FUNCTION. I BOUGHT THIS 07 TRAILBLAZER BRAND NEW AND IT ONLY HAS 31K MILES. PROBLEM STARTED TO OCCUR AROUND 27K MILES AND THE DEALER ADVISED IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY!!! YOU WOULD THINK WITH 70 COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SAME ISSUE, CHEVY WOULD DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!!! VERY DISAPPOINTING. I JUST WISH THAT WAS THE ONLY PROBLEM...TIRE MONITOR DOESN'T WORK, THE A/C ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FAILED, AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON. *TR

GAS GAUGE DOES NOT WORK SO WE NEVER REALLY KNOW EXACTLY HOW MUCH GAS WE HAVE LEFT WHICH CAN RESULT IN IT RUNNING OUT OF GAS ON THE HIGHWAY PUTTING MYSELF OR MY WIFE AND CHILDREN IN DANGER... *TR

FUEL SENDER FAILS RESULTING IN FALSE REPORT BY FUEL GAUGE AS EMPTY TANK. INCIDENCES STARTED IN DECEMBER 2010, 4 MONTHS AFTER VEHICLE PURCHASE, APPROXIMATELY 17,800 MILES DRIVEN ON VEHICLE, 5,000 BY SECOND OWNER. ENDANGERS DRIVER BY POSSIBILITY OF BECOMING STRANDED BY RUNNING OUT OF GAS. REPAIR, NOT COVERED BY MANUFACTURER, IS PROHIBITIVELY EXPENSIVE, $500+, DUE TO POSSIBLE NEED TO REPLACE MORE THAN JUST SENSOR. INCIDENTS OCCUR DAILY, AS GAUGE SOMETIMES RESETS ON START UP, THEN FAILS WHILE DRIVING, AND SOMETIMES IMMEDIATELY AFTER START UP. WELL DOCUMENTED DEFECT OF FUEL SYSTEM ONLINE AND BY REPAIR SHOPS, CLAIMS OF NO RESPONSIBILITY OF DEFECT BY CHEVROLET/GM. *TR

FUEL GAUGE ON MY 2007 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER QUIT WORKING SUDDENLY AT ABOUT 40K MILE. GM DENIES ANY RECALL IN ORDER, BUT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM ACROSS THE COUNTRY WHEN I RESEARCH IT ON THE INTERNET. NOW THEY'RE GIVING ME THE RUN AROUND ABOUT FIXING IT. *TR

MY 2007 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER'S FUEL GAUGE IS NO LONGER FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN RECEIVING ALL PREVENTIVE AND SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE AND HAS APPROXIMATELY 64,000 MILES. THE PROBLEM STARTED APPROXIMATELY TWO WEEKS AGO (FIRST WEEK OF FEBRUARY 2011) AND HAS PROGRESSED TO THE POINT WHERE IT HAS COMPLETELY FAILED. THE GAUGE WILL INDICATE PROPER LEVEL WHEN KEY IS TURNED ON BUT WILL DROP TO ZERO WITH LOW LEVEL LIGHT STAYING ON ALMOST IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE VEHICLE IS STARTED EVEN IF THE FUEL TANK IS FULL. THIS MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT FOR ME TO CONTINUE TO ALLOW MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER TO USE THIS VEHICLE AS HER PRIMARY TRANSPORTATION TO SCHOOL AND WORK. ESPECIALLY IN THE WINTER MONTHS WHERE BEING STUCK ON THE SIDE OF ROAD IN THE COUNTRY CAN BE A MATTER OF LIFE OR DEATH. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR ESTIMATE AND THE REPAIR WILL REACH BETWEEN $600-900 SINCE THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY. I UNDERSTAND FROM TALKING TO PROFESSIONAL MECHANICS AND INTERNET RESEARCH THAT THIS PROBLEM IS WELL DOCUMENTED AND KNOWN TO BE THE USE OF SUBSTANDARD PARTS IN THE FUEL LEVEL SENSORS IN THE FUEL TANK. EVEN IF MY LIMITED RESEARCH IS NOT CONCLUSIVE, THE NUMBER OF INCIDENTS WHERE THIS OCCURS SEEMS TO WARRANT A RESPONSE FROM THE COMPANY. *TR
