NHTSA Complaint #10779611 — 2004 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER

DURING HIGH SPEEDS (INTERSTATE/LONG-DISTANCE DRIVING) THERE IS A VIBRATING NOISE ON MY WINDSHIELD. THIS STARTED YEARS AGO; AT FIRST I THOUGHT THE NOISE WAS MY ANTENNA. I CHECKED IT TO MAKE SURE IT WAS SECURE AND IT WAS, SO I DISMISSED THE NOISE. I DON'T DO A LOT OF LONG-DISTANCE OR INTERSTATE DRIVING, SO IT WAS A WHILE BEFORE I HEARD THE NOISE AGAIN. EVER SINCE I HAVE DISMISSED IT AS WIND NOISE AT HIGH SPEEDS. DURING MY INTERNET RESEARCH OF A RECENT MECHANICAL PROBLEM, I CAME ACROSS INFORMATION FOR IMPROPER WINDSHIELD MOUNTING AND LIFT GATE GLASS MOUNTING ON OTHER GM VEHICLES. ALTHOUGH I DID NOT FIND RECALL INFORMATION FOR MY MAKE/MODEL/YEAR, I AM FILING THIS REPORT BECAUSE OF WINDSHIELD NOISE AND POTENTIAL WINDSHIELD AND LIFT GATE GLASS FAILURE ON MY VEHICLE. NOW THAT I KNOW ABOUT THIS POSSIBLE DEFECT, I WILL TRY TO AVOID INTERSTATE DRIVING OR TRY TO DRIVE 60 MPH OR BELOW. I RECENTLY HAD TO TRAVEL FOR A FUNERAL 5 HOURS AWAY BUT RENTED A VEHICLE INSTEAD OF DRIVING MY OWN. IN THE REPORT DATE, I HAVE INSERTED THE DATE OF THE LAST INTERSTATE TRAVEL THAT WAS MADE IN MY VEHICLE.
