NHTSA Complaint #10274028 — 2005 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER EXT 370

2005 EXT TRAILBLAZER REAR PLASTIC MOLDING CONTAINING THE 3RD BRAKELIGHT SEPARATED FROM THE WINDOW AT LEAST 3X SINCE I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE. ONCE EVEN FALLING COMPLETELY OFF SEVERING THE WIRES AND LANDING IN THE ROADWAY. I NOTICED THE FIRST SEPARATION LESS THAN 6 MONTHS AFTER GETTING VEHICLE BRAND NEW. IT HAS SEPARATED AGAIN AND DEALER SAYS THAT IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY BECAUSE IT IS CONSIDERED COSMETIC EVEN THOUGH THE VEHICLE WAS STILL UNDER LEASE FOR ANOTHER YEAR. HE ALSO INFORMED ME THAT IT HAPPENS TO EVERYONE HE HAS SEEN AND THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO TO STOP IT FROM HAPPENING THAT IT IS A FLAW IN THE ENGINEERING, BUT THEY WOULDN'T HOLD IT AGAINST ME WHEN I TURN MY LEASE IN. *TR
