NHTSA Complaint #10406405 — 2003 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER

WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE, IT PERIODICALLY WILL NOT START, LOSE ALL POWER, KEY GETS STUCK IN THE IGNITION WITHOUT ABILITY TO RETURN IGNITION TO OFF POSITION. THERE IS A SOUND (LIKE A HIGH VOLTAGE SOUND COMING FROM A TRANSFORMER) AND EVENTUALLY RESETS ITSELF, UNTIL 2 DAYS AGO. IT WOULD NOT RESET ITSELF, RESULTING IN IT BEING TOWED TO A REPAIR CENTER. THEY INDICATED IT WAS THE ALTERNATOR AND BATTERY AND AFTER CHANGING BOTH, THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT CAME BACK ON AND THE HIGH VOLTAGE SOUND HAS RETURNED. THERE ARE TIMES THE REAR WIPER WILL TURN ON WITHOUT MY TOUCHING ANYTHING AND TIMES WHERE THE RPM GAGE WILL GET STUCK.
