Consumer Description

MY 2005 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER STARTED AT 60,000 MILES HAVING MY SPEEDOMETER GOING CRAZY AND IT FINALLY STUCK AT 120 AND ONLY MOVED OCCASIONALLY MOVED I TRIED TO GO WITH THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC, BUT ENDED UP GETTING A TICKET...THE FIRST IN MY 50 YEARS OF DRIVING. I WENT TO GET IT FIXED, BUT FOUND OUT EVEN THOUGH IT WAS A DEFECT IN THE ELECTRICAL HARNESS, CHEVROLET WAS ONLY FIXING IT IN CERTAIN OF THEIR EXPENSIVE MODELS. IT WAS GOING TO COST ME OVER $500, WHICH I CANNOT AFFORD. I USE MY GPS TO WATCH MY MILEAGE. NOW THE GAS GAUGE STOPPED WORKING, THE CD PLAYER, AND THE OTHER GAUGES ARE IN QUESTION...PLUS MY LIGHTS BLINK OFF AT NIGHT. I AM A SENIOR AND CANNOT AFFORD TO GET ANOTHER CAR, OR EVEN FIX THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE FOUND MANY COMPLAINTS ON THE TRAILBLAZER FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. CHEVROLET SHOULD HAVE TO MAKE THIS RIGHT. MY CAR HAS A LITTLE OVER 80,000 MILES AND I WANT TO KEEP IT THE REST OF MY LIFE. PLEASE HELP. *TR
