NHTSA Complaint #10504516 — 2006 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER EXT

WE HAVE HAD THIS VEHICLE IN THE CHEVROLET DEALER SHOP SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS. TWICE IT WAS SENT WITH THE ENGINE LIGHT ON AND CAME BACK TO US WITH THE SAME LIGHT STILL ON. AS A MATTER OF FACT, THE LAST ISSUE THAT WAS REPAIRED HAD TO BE FIXED TWO MORE TIMES BY MY HUSBAND. THE DEALER REPAIRMAN TOLD MY HUSBAND WHAT TO DO IN CASE IT HAPPENED AGAIN. $800 LATER, IT HAS HAPPENED TWICE. ALSO, THE LAST TIME IT CAME BACK FROM THE DEALER, THE GAS GAUGE HAD STOPPED WORKING. I HAVE BEEN TRACKING MILES TO KEEP FROM RUNNING OUT OF GAS; HOWEVER, I HAVE STILL RUN OUT OF GAS FIVE TIMES! AS A BUSY MOM, KEEPING UP WITH GALLONS AND MILEAGE BECOMES TOO MUCH OF A HASSLE. I'M DRIVING (STOP AND GO) 300+ MILES A WEEK. WE HAVEN'T TAKEN IT BACK TO THE DEALER BECAUSE OUR INCOME HAS SUFFERED A LOSS OVER THE PAST SIX MONTHS; THEREFORE, WE HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH THE PROBLEM. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A PROBLEM WITH A LOT OF 2006 TRAILBLAZERS. I AM ASKING FOR HELP BECAUSE I'M TIRED OF RUNNING OUT OF GAS. *TR
