Consumer Description

CHEVY TRAILBAZER 05... GAS GAUGE KEEPS MOVING FROM LOW TO EMPTY BACK TO FULL,SOMETIMES IT STAYS AT EMPTY. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON. FUEL SENDING UNIT KEEPS FAILING. UNIT WAS REPLACED IN 2007 AT DEALERSHIP. SENDING UNIT HAS GONE BAD AGAIN. VERY EXPENSIVE LABOR NEEDED TO FIX THIS. WHEN I FIXED THE FIRST TIME I HAD WARRANTY NOW IT HAS EXPIRED. I CHECKED ONLINE AND IT SEEMS LIKE EVERYONE WITH A CHEVY TRAILBLAZER IS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM ALSO MY..TO MY KNOWLEDGE THIS IS A COMPLETELY DEFECT OF THE CAR. MY MAJOR FEAR IS TO RUN OUT OF GAS ON THE HIGHWAY AND MY CAR TO STALL. LEADING TO AN ACCIDENT.....ALSO THE INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHT KEEP GETTING DARKER..SOMETIMES SEVERAL LIGHTS COME ON. *TR
