2005 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER EXT 370 Complaints

FUEL GAUGE DOES NOT WORK ACCURATELY. I HAVE RAN OUT OF GAS TWICE BOTH TIMES THE GAUGE SHOWED THAT THERE WAS APPROX. 1/4 OF TANK REMAINING. OTHER TIMES AFTER FILLING THE GAUGE WILL DROP TO EMPTY AND THE LOW FUEL LIGHT AND CHIMES WILL COME ON WHILE DRIVING. VERY ANNOYING AND DISTRACTING. NO ACCIDENTS. *TR

STARTED WITH THE SERVICE AIR BAG MESSAGE (KNOWN ISSUE). THEN THE FUEL GAUGE ACTED UP AND FINALLY WENT TO E AND STAYED. NOW HAVE AND OCCASIONAL SURGE IN THE FUEL WHEN I HAVE THE BRAKE PRESSED (KNOWN ISSUES). SPEEDOMETER STARTING ACTING UP AND NO LONGER WORKS (KNOWN ISSUE). OH AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS NOW ALWAYS ON. STARTED INTERMITTENTLY (AGAIN, KNOWN ISSUE). WAS TOLD $500 FROM DEALER WHEN I CALLED TO REPORT THE SERVICE AIR BAG MESSAGE. RECALL SHOULD APPLY TO THIS VEHICLE, I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE VEHICLE WENT THROUGH BEFORE I PURCHASED IT. CLOTH SEATS/LEATHER SEATS, THE SERVICE AIR BAG "SENSOR" IS STILL BROKE! DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO FIX ALL THE "KNOWN" PROBLEMS. *TR

THE SPEEDOMETER STOPPED WORKING ONE RANDOM HOT DAY. THERE WERE NO RESULTING INJURIES, INCIDENCES OR CRASHES AS A RESULT. MY TRAILBLAZER HAS YET TO HAVE A RELIABLE DAY WHERE MY SPEEDOMETER WORKS CONTINUOUSLY. *TR

OUR 2005 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER'S LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS HAVE BEEN REPLACED, THE WIRES WERE REPLACED AND WORKED LONG ENOUGH FOR ME TO GO OUT AT NIGHT. THE FIRST NIGHT I DID GO OUT, THEY STOPPED WORKING. I WAS STUCK OUT OF TOWN WITH MY LITTLE GIRL. THANK GOODNESS I WASN'T DRIVING OR IN A PLACE WHERE I DIDN'T HAVE CELL PHONE SERVICE(WHICH I DON'T HAVE CLOSE TO MY HOME). ALSO, OUR FUEL GAUGE DOESN'T WORK. WE'VE HAD IT REPAIRED AND IT WORKED FOR A SHORT PERIOD AS WELL, BUT DOESN'T WORK ANY LONGER. APPARENTLY, THESE TWO ISSUES ARE COMMON PROBLEMS THAT CHEVROLET NEEDS TO ADDRESS. A RECALL WOULD BE NICE. I HAVE TWO MORE PAYMENTS AND I DO NOT WANT TO BUY A NEW VEHICLE. NOR WOULD I FEEL COMFORTABLE SELLING THIS ONE AS IT IS. *TR

MY 05 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER EXT LT WITH 4.2 L CRACKED ITS EXHAUST MANIFOLD AT 85,000 KMS. GM DEALERSHIP IN 2 DIFFERENT CITIES REFUSED TO REPAIR UNDER WARRANTY. THIS TRUCK WAS PURCHASED AS A NEW USED DEMO FROM THE ORIGINAL DEALERSHIP WITH 14,000KMS MAY 06. *TR

NHTSA ACTION NUMBER : DP10001 I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH MY 2005 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER. FILLED THE GAS TANK AND NOW IT GOES BACK AND FORTH FROM EMPTY TO FULL WHILE DRIVING. ALSO, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. *TR

MY 2005 TRAILBLAZER EXT WILL NOT READ THE CORRECT LEVEL OF FUEL. MOST OF THE TIME IT WILL NOT READ ANY FUEL AT ALL. IF IT SHOWS ANY AMOUNT, THAT AMOUNT WILL BE VERY INACCURATE. WITHIN A 10 MILE DISTANCE, THE RANGE WILL CHANGE FROM 400 MILES TO 85 MILES. VERY UNSAFE CONDITION DUE TO HIGH POTENTIAL OF RUNNING OUT OF FUEL IN A HIGHWAY SITUATION. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER LS EXT AND THE SPEEDOMETER, FUEL, AND BATTERY GAUGES DO NOT WORK PROPERLY. THERE IS A DIMMING OF THE LIGHTS WHILE DRIVING AND PEOPLE SOMETIMES THINK I AM FLASHING MY LIGHTS AT THEM. ACCORDING TO HTTP://FORUMS.TRAILVOY.COM/SHOWTHREAD.PHP?T=18419&HIGHLIGHT=GAS+GUAGE&PAGE=2 THIS HAS BEEN A KNOWN PROBLEM FOR SEVERAL YEARS AND NO ONE HAS DONE ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THERE ARE SEVERAL OTHER FORUMS OUT THERE THAT SAY THE SAME THING,THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD AND COULD CAUSE MAJOR PROBLEMS INCLUDING ACCIDENTS, SPEEDING TICKETS, RUNNING OUT OF GAS...THE PROBLEMS ARE ENDLESS I GUESS. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. WHY HAS THERE NOT BEEN A RECALL ON THIS WITH SO MANY COMPLAINTS? ARE YOU WAITING FOR SOMETHING SERIOUS TO HAPPEN? *TR
