NHTSA Complaint #10260924 — 2006 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER

THE ENGINE LIGHT GOES ON SOMETIMES AND SOMETIMES OFF OR SOMETIMES BLINKING. THE CAR WAS TAKEN IN TO CHECK THE COMPUTER READ OUT TO FIND IT IS A MISFIRE AND I WAS TOLD THE REPAIR WOULD COST ALMOST $4000.00. ONE TIME, THE RADIO SOUNDED 3 BEEPS AND SAID "FIRE ON", I SHUT OFF THE CAR AND IT CONTINUED, TOOK OUT THE KEYS, STILL CONTINUED. WAS TOLD NEVER HEARD OF SUCH A THING FROM THE DEALER AND ON STAR WHEN I DID A DIAGNOSTIC . ON STAR SAID MY OIL IS REGISTERING -- HOWEVER THE CAR SAYS 99% REMAINS. LIGHTS GO DIM ESPECIALLY WHEN APPLYING BRAKES AND SOMETIMES WHENEVER. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON SOMETIMES AND THEN GOES OFF. SOMETIMES FLASHES DURING IDLE AND SOMETIMES NOT. SINCE COMPUTER HAS BEEN CLEARED, ENGINE LIGHT HAS NOT COME ON FOR ONE DAY BUT THE GAS MILEAGE IS VERY BAD SINCE I HAD IT IN TO CHECK ABOUT THE LIGHT. BY THE WAY, NOTHING WAS FIXED BUT I WAS CHARGED $148.50 TO FIND OUT MY FAIRLY NEW VEHICLE WITH 27,000 MIS. IS BROKE. I WAS TOLD THE HEAD NEEDS REPLACED. THEY ARE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THEM. WHY DO I HAVE TO PAY FOR THEIR PROBLEMS? *TR
