LIGHTS DIMMING AND FLASHING ALTERNATOR NOT CHARGING, WIRING PROBLEM, DEALER HAS NO ANSWER. I HAVE VEHICLE JUST STARTED THIS AT 74000 MILES, WAS FINE UP UNTIL THAT POINT. HEATER FAN WORKS INTERMITTENTLY. GHOST ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WITH DOOR LOCKS, RADIO , HIGH BEAMS. VERY SCARY TO DRIVE. *TR

2005 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER EXT LS. THE SPEEDOMETER GETS STUCK AND DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD. *TR

I TOOK A LEFT TURN WITH MY 2005 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER EXT. AND FISHTAILED ON SOME ICE AND MY SIDE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. I HAVE READ SEVERAL OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ON THE INTERNET AND GM HAS TOLD THOSE PEOPLE THAT THE BLACK BOX SAID THAT THE AIRBAG SYSTEM ANTICIPATED A ROLLOVER AND THEY HAVE NOT PAID TO HAVE THE DAMAGE FIXED. I HAVE TOLD GM THIS HAS HAPPENED AND AM WAITING TO HEAR BACK FROM THEM BUT AM EXPECTING THE SAME VERDICT THAT EVERYONE ELSE HAS RECEIVED. I DON'T SEE HOW FISHTAILING ON WET PAVEMENT, ICE, OR IN SOME INSTANCES OR AROUND SOMETHING CAN CAUSE AIRBAGS TO DEPLOY. I HAVE AIRBAGS THAT NEED TO BE REPLACED, THE INTERIOR ROOF NEEDS TO BE REPLACED, AND THE SEAT BELTS ARE ALL LOCKED UP AND CAN'T BE USED. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH ON A SLIPPERY ROAD, THE BRAKE PEDAL EXTENDED TO THE FLOORBOARD WHEN DEPRESSED. THE VEHICLE WENT INTO A DITCH AS A RESULT AND ROLLED OVER TWICE, ENDING UPSIDE DOWN. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE UNKNOWN.

CHEVY TRAILBLAZER FUEL LEVEL SENSOR QUIT WORKING AT 60,000 AND DEALER WANTS 500.00 TO REPAIR. GAGE STARTED SHOWING EMPTY AFTER FILLING UP, NOW IT ONLY GOES TO 1/4 TANK OR EMPTY. I HAVE TO USE TRIP METER TO KEEP UP WITH FUEL. *TR

MY 2005 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER IS COMPLETELY GOING CRAZY IT SEEMS EVERYTHING ELECTRICAL IS GOING WRONG WITH IT. I AM AFRAID TO LET MY WIFE OR MY KIDS DRIVE IN IT BECAUSE I NEVER KNOW WHAT'S GOING TO GO WRONG WHILE DRIVING. MY WHOLE GAS SYSTEM IS GONE FROM FUEL LEVEL INDICATOR TO THE GAUGE. MY ENTIRE DASHBOARD IS NOT WORKING. LIGHTS ARE GOING OUT. WHAT IS CRAZY ABOUT THIS IS THAT I AM ONE OF THOUSANDS THAT THIS IS HAPPENING TO. CHEVY NEEDS TO FIX THIS PROBLEM BEFORE SOMEONE DOES GET KILLED. WAITING FOR FATALITIES BEFORE MAKING CHEVY FIXES THERE AWFULLY MADE VEHICLES IS UNACCEPTABLE. I UNDERSTAND THE SITUATION OUR ECONOMY IS IN BUT THESE THOUSANDS OF TRAILBLAZER OWNERS THAT ARE HAVING THESE PROBLEMS SHOULDN'T BE PAYING THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO BE GETTING THERE ENTIRE ELECTRICAL PROBLEM FIXED. I DO NOT KNOW ONE OWNER OF A 2006 TRAILBLAZER THAT DOES NOT HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM. IT IS UNETHICAL AND CHEVY INSTEAD OF STEPPING UP AND FIXING THERE PROBLEM ARE MAKING THERE LOYAL CUSTOMERS SPEND THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS FIXING THERE MISTAKE. IT IS TRULY SAD THAT I DO NOT TRUST TAKING MY VEHICLE WITH MY FAMILY IN IT BECAUSE OF BEING AFRAID MY VEHICLE WILL FAIL TO DRIVE OR MALFUNCTION. PLEASE HOLD CHEVY ACCOUNTABLE AND MAKE THEM FIX OUR POORLY MAD AND UNSAFE VEHICLES SO WE CAN FEEL SAFE DRIVING OUR FAMILY AROUND AGAIN. *TR

I REQUESTS THAT NHTSA OPEN AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE PERFORMANCE/RELIABILITY OF THE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR INSTALLED IN MODEL YEAR 2005 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER VEHICLES. I ALLEGE THAT THE FUEL TANK LEVEL SENSOR IS DEFECTIVE AND COULD RESULT IN A SUBJECT VEHICLE RUNNING OUT OF FUEL, STALL, AND BEING REAR ENDED BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. I ALSO ALLEGE THAT THE REAR CENTER BRAKE LIGHT COVER ASSEMBLY LOCATED ABOVE THE REAR HATCH ON THESE VEHICLES ROUTINELY FAILS RESULTING IN THE ASSEMBLY FALLING OFF OF THE TRUCK AND WOULD CAUSE DAMAGE TO ANOTHER VEHICLE DRIVING BEHIND THE TRAILBLAZER. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 CHEVY BLAZER THAT WE TOOK ON A TRIP TO NASHVILLE. ON THE INTERSTATE WE REALIZED THAT OUR SPEEDOMETER KEPT GOING UP AND EVERYONE WAS PASSING US. BY THE TIME WE MADE IT TO AN EXIT THE SPEEDOMETER HAD MADE IT ALL THE WAY AROUND TO D (DRIVE) AT THE BOTTOM OF DASH. WHEN WE STOPPED IT WOULD ONLY GO BACK TO 50. WHEN WE STOPPED AT AUTOZONE THE GUY TOLD US HE HAS SEEN THIS IN 2 OF THE TRAILBLAZERS THAT IS FAMILY OWNS. WE WERE GOING TO HAVE IT CHECKED BUT THE NEXT DAY THE SPEEDOMETER DECIDED TO SOMEWHAT WORK, NOW IT IS ABOUT 5 MILES OFF. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT IT PROBABLY WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. *TR
