Consumer Description

MY 2005 TRAILBLAZER STARTED EXPERIENCING FALSE READINGS ON THE SPEEDOMETER AROUND 96,000 MILES. AT FIRST IT WAS OFF BY 5-10 MPH THEN IT WOULD CORRECT IT'S SELF. NEXT THE OIL PRESSURE GAUGE STARTED WITH FALSE READINGS BOTH HIGH, THEN LOW, NEITHER ACCURATE. NOW IT IS AT A POINT WHERE THE SPEEDOMETER IS NO LONGER READING ACCURATE SPEED AND IS NOT SHOWING ANY SIGNS OF EVER RE-CORRECTING IT'S SELF AND THE OIL PRESSURE GAUGE AS WELL AS THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE BOTH MALFUNCTION ON A DAILY BASIS IN ONE DIRECTION OR THE OTHER. IT APPEARS THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH CHEVY TRUCKS IN THIS CLASS YET THE TRAILBLAZER IS THE ONLY MODEL IN THE CLASS TO NOT BE ADDRESSED WITH A RECALL. IF A PRODUCT IS FAULTY BY THE MANUFACTURERS STANDARD IT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED AND CORRECTED. *TR
