NHTSA Complaint #10621170 — 2005 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER

THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON&OFF A LOT RIGHT AFTER FUELING, I TOOK IT TO THE GMC DEALERSHIP&HAD THE CAMSHAFT REPLACED BECAUSE IT KEPT CUTTING OFF EVERY TIME I TURNED A CURVE.I TRIED TO SHOW OR TELL THEM ABOUT THIS GMC RECALL LETTER I GOT ON MY 2005 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER, BUT THEY SAID THAT IT DIDN'T APPLY BECAUSE OF THE MILEAGE&I TOLD THEM THE CAR IS NOT 10YRS OLD& THE PAPER IS SAYING 10YRS/120,00 MILES& FOR ME TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP SO THAT THE MANGER CAN SEND MY BILL & RECEIPT IN FOR REIMBURSEMENT THEY WOULDN'T DO IT.I GUESS BECAUSE I'M A WOMAN.DRIVING TO WORK ON THE INTERSTATE THE CAR SHUT COMPLETELY OFF. THE CAR WAS STILL MOVING WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN ALL THE LIGHTS AND GAUGE'S LIT UP AND THE CAR CUT OFF. IT DID NOT LOCK UP SO I WAS ABLE TO STEER IT FROM THE MIDDLE LANE OF A THREE LANE INTERSTATE HIGHWAY TO THE GRASS ON THE SIDE WITHOUT GETTING KILLED OR HURTING SOMEONE ELSE.I HAD JUST FILLED IT UP WITH GAS WITH A QUARTER OF A TANK FROM THE FULL LINE. ONCE I GOT THE CAR TO A COMPLETE STOP AND THANKING GOD THAT THIS WAS NOT TRAGIC,I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND WAITED A FEW MINUTES BEFORE STARTING IT BACK UP. IT STARTED BACK UP AS IF NOTHING HAD HAPPENED. I TOOK IT TO AUTO ZONE TO GET A FREE DIAGNOSTIC CHECK&IT SHOWED THAT NOTHING WAS WRONG. A FEW WEEKS LATER AFTER I WOULD CUT THE CAR OFF THE AIR CONDITIONING WOULD NOT STOP&THE ENGINE LIGHT CONSTANTLY COMES ON EVERY OTHER TIME I HIT THE BRAKES. I HAD TO KEEP TAKING OUT FUSE #35 TO GET IT TO STOP EVEN AFTER THE CAR WAS CUT OFF JUST SO THE BATTERY WON'T RUN DOWN. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS CHARGED AN ARM&LEG TO GET IT FIXED. I SHOWED THEM THE RECALL LETTER AGAIN AND THEY SAID IT WAS TOO LATE FOR THEM OR MYSELF TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. I HAVE ALL OF MY RECEIPTS & THE LETTER FROM GMC ABOUT THE RECALLS.IM SURE MY VEHICLE FITS IN THERE SOMEWHERE WITH THESE PROBLEMS& TRULY WOULD LIKE 4 THEM 2 GIVE MY FREE CAR. *TR
