Consumer Description

PURCHASED 2003 TRAILBLAZER IN OCTOBER 2003. HAD PROBLEMS SHIFTING INTO 4WD IN WINTER 2003-04. WHEN SWITCHING INTO AND 4-WD, LIGHTS WOULD FLASH AND IT WOULD REMAIN IN 2-WD. SERVICE 4WD LIGHT CAME ON SOON AFTER. BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER WHO COULD NOT REPLICATE PROBLEM. THIS HAPPENED LATER THE SAME YEAR AND ALSO THE FOLLOWING YEAR, EACH TIME THE DEALER COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM. THIS PAST WEEKEND WHILE ON VACATION, A PARKING VALET FOR SOME ODD REASON, SWITCHED THE CAR INTO 4-WD LOW. CAR WILL NOT COME OUT OF 4-WD LOW. HAD TO LEAVE AT DEALER 150 MILES FROM HOME AND RENT A CAR TO GET HOME. I AM WAITING UNTIL AFTER THE 4TH OF JULY HOLIDAY FOR THEM TO LOOK AT CAR AND FIGURE OUT PROBLEM. *NM
