2005 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER Electrical System Problems

FOR SEVERAL YEARS THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS WOULD GO OFF AND ON INTERMITTENTLY. NOW, THEY ARE MOSTLY OFF WHICH MEANS I CANNOT DRIVE MY VEHICLE AT NIGHT ANYMORE UNLESS I WANT TO BLIND PEOPLE OR GET STOPPED. I HAVE CHANGED HEADLAMPS, RELAYS AND FUSES TO NO AVAIL. NOW, I SEE THAT MANY OTHERS WITH THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL SUV HAVE BEEN HAVING THE SAME ISSUE BUT NO RECALLS HAVE BEEN ISSUED FOR THIS YEAR MODEL. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE WHEN WE HAVE TO DRIVE WITH THE HIGH BEAMS ON AND WHEN THE LIGHTS GO OFF UNEXPECTEDLY. IF YOU WILL ISSUE A RECALL FOR ONE YEAR MODEL HAVING A PARTICULAR ISSUE, WHY WOULD YOU NOT DO THE SAME WITH ALL YEAR MODELS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE? COME ON CHEVROLET AND NHTSA, LET'S GET THIS PROBLEM SOLVED TO SAVE SOME LIVES. IT IS VERY SCARY TO BE DRIVING AND...

THE GAUGES DON'T WORK PROPERLY AND WHEN THE GAUGES ARE TAPPED THE TRAILBLAZER STALLS. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON A HIGHWAY.

I OWN A 2005 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER (BOUGHT NEW) WITH APPROXIMATELY 79,000 MILES. THE FUEL GAUGE LIGHT IS ILLUMINATED INDICATING I AM LOW ON FUEL HOWEVER MY GAS TANK IS FULL. I NOTICED THE PROBLEM AFTER FILLING MY TANK (NO LIGHT ON AT THE TIME). AFTER FILLING THE TANK, THE FUEL LIGHT CAME ON AND THE GAS GAUGE BOUNCED BACK AND FORTH FROM QUARTER TANK TO HALF TANK AND NOW THE LIGHT STAYS ON WITH GAUGE SHOWING EMPTY. I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY HELP YOU CAN GIVE OR RECOMMEND ANY POSSIBLE ACTION TO TAKE.

MOST RECENT, I AM DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD MY HEAD LIGHTS GO OUT. NOTHING ELSE, JUST THE MAIN HEAD LIGHTS. ALL.OTJER LIGHTS STAY ON. HIGH BEAMS WORK, PARKING LIGHTS STAY ON. THIS IS NOT SAFE!!!

LIGHTS GO ON AND OFF SETTING STILL

THE SPEEDOMETER ISN'T WORKING. I'VE BEEN HEARING HOW COMMON THIS ISSUE IS. EVERY NOW AND THEN IT WILL JUMP TO A RANDOM SPOT WHEN I START THE VEHICLE AND STAY THERE. BUT IT NEVER MOVES WHILE DRIVING

IN MOTION OR PARKED MY SPEED AND MY TAC JUST STOP AT RANDOM NUMBERS. I HAVE TO SHUT MY CAR OFF IF MY SPEED IS STUCK. EVERYTIME I DO THIS MY SPEED DROPS 5 MPH SO IF I'M STUCK AT 20 I HAVE TO DO THIS 4 TIMES JUST TO GET BACK TO 0 MPH I HAVE CALLED CHEVY . THEY TOLD ME IT WILL COST ME OVER $800 TO FIX THIS. KINDA STRANGE THE RECALL DOAENT EFFECT ONLY THE TRAILBLAZERS DON'T YOU THINK. I HAVE BEEN IN THE AUTOMOTIVE FEIOD FOR OVER 10 YEARS NOW AND I KNOW ALOT OF CHEVY HAVE HAD THIS RECALL SO IT'S TIME FOR YOU GUYS ACT.

VEHICLE PURCHASED 2008. IT HAD 35,412 MI. IN 2011 THE VEHICLE WOULD HAVE A ROUGH IDLE AND STALL IN TRAFFIC. SOMETIMES AS MANY AS 3 TIMES ON A SIX MILE ROUND TRIP. ALWAYS WOULD STALL DRIVING AROUND TOWN. I HAD REPLACED CAM VRR TEMP SENSOR FUEL THROTTLE. ALL COILS PLUGS WATER PUMP BATTERY MOTOR SUPPORTS BELT WINDSHIELD WASHER BOTTLE AND MOTORS FLUSH FUEL LINES. WHEEL HUBS AND BEARING ROUNDS CRANKSHAFT AND POWER STEERING PULLEY POWER STEERING PUMP OIL CHANGES 2500 TO 3000 MILES SYNTHETIC OIL. ALL FLUIDS CHANGED AND FLUSH REAR DIFFERENTIAL TRANSMISSION SHIFTER CABLE. SEVERAL DIAGNOSTICS AT CHEVROLET. LEFT THERE THEY DROVE IT CUT OFF ONCE. FINALLY, I KEPT WATCHING GAUGES OIL PRESSURE DROPPED 44 TO ZERO. CAR CUT OFF RECTANGLES IT PULLED OVER WAIT 30 MINS. NO OIL ON DIP STICK. CALLED FIRESTONE TOOK IT THERE. OIL SENDING UNIT DEFECTIVE. CHANGED ALL OIL. THEY FOUND IT. THIS WAS...

I AM EXPERIENCING ALL ISSUES IDENTIFIED WITH RECALL DUE TO DOOR SWITCH SENSOR BEING DEFECTIVE. INTERMITTENT WORKING OF DOOR LOCKS NOT LOCKING OR LOCKING AND WON'T UNLOCK . WINDOWS WON'T WORK SOMETIMES, AND SOMETIMES THEY WILL . LIGHTS WON'T SHUT OFF IN INTERIOR, OR WON'T GO ON . DELAY FEATURE WHERE RADIO , AND OTHER FEATURES STAY ON AFTER TURNING IGNITION OFF , AND STILL IN VEHICLE WON'T WORK , AND SOMETIMES DO WORK . THESE THINGS HAPPEN WHEN VEHICLE IS EITHER MOVING, OR NOT MOVING IN PARK . THEY HAPPEN BOTH CITY DRIVING, AND HIGHWAY AS WELL. ALL OF THESE CRAZY ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS BEGAN SEVERAL MONTHS AGO, AND WHEN IN THE VEHICLE AND I AM IN PARK, AND SHUT OFF IGNITION, AND THE DOORS WON'T UNLOCK, THE KEY FOB WON'T WORK TO UNLOCK DOORS EITHER, AND I AM TRAPPED INSIDE VEHICLE UNTIL SOMEONE IS CLOSE ENOUGH TO HEAR ME...

GAUGES (FUEL, BATTERY AND OIL) QUIT WORKING. SO NOW THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON.

RPM, GAS, AND VOLTAGE METER ARE NOT READING PROPERLY AT ALL. EVERYWHERE U GO EVERYTIME U START THE TRUCK UP IT DOES NOT READ PROPERLY.

DRIVING IN CITY SPEEDOMOTER QUIT WORKING PROPERLY. DONT KNOW WHAT SPEED IS WHILE DRIVING CAR HAS 33000 MILES, HAS NOT BEEN DRIVEN IN 3 YEARS AS IT WAS MY FATHERS AND HE NO LONGER DRIVES AS HE IS 97 YEARS OLD

OUR VEHICLE DIED AT A TURN SIGNAL LIGHT IN A DANGEROUS INTERSECTION. NO WARNING FROM THE VEHICLE AS IT WAS RUNNING NORMAL. IT WOULD TURN OVER BUT NO START. POLICE FORCE A TOW OUT OF THE BUSY INTERSECTION RIGHT AWAY. IT STARTS UP AT THE MECHANICS. THEY TESTED FUEL FILTER AND OTHER STUFF. WE GET ON THE HIGHWAY IN TRAFFIC AND GET 6 MILES OUT AND NO WARNING WE DIE AND HAD TO PUSH THE CAR TO THE SHOULDER ON IN DANGEROUS CONDITIONS. SIT FOR 2 HOURS AND IT FIRES UP. SO WE FOUND SHADE AND WAITED FOR COOL DOWN. 2 HOURS AWAY FROM HOME AND IT TOOK US 9 HOURS TO GET HOME. WE DROVE IT TO THE STORE AND WHEN WE WERE DONE SHOPPING IT FIRED UP. WENT AROUND THE CORNER TO OTHER STORE AND SHOPPED 2 HOURS AND CAME OUT AND IT WOULD TURN AND NO START....

I HAVE A 2005 TB LS, AND IT'S A POS. AS SOON AS I DROVE OFF THE LOT I'VE HAD NOTHING BUT ISSUES. MY BRAKES PULSATE, GO TO THE FLOOR, GET STIFF AS A BOARD, BASICALLY THEY DON'T WORK. I HAVE TO PUMP THE BRAKES QUICKLY IN AN EFFORT TO AVOID A CRASH. I FILLED THE GAS TANK TO FULL, HUGE MISTAKE. THE MOMENT I DID THAT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS FLASHED AND SPORADIC IDLING. IT HAS A LOUD WHINE UNDER THE HOOD, FRONT TURN SIGNALS AND HAZARD FLASHER RANDOMLY STOPPED WORKING. CAR WILL DIE IF I RUN THE A/C FOR MORE THEN 15 MINS. IT WILL PULL TO EITHER SIDE WHEN I APPLY MY BRAKES. I HAVE ALWAYS KEPT UP WITH PROPER MAINTENANCE, TUNE UP, ETC. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE, THAT SO MANY HAVE THE SAME [XXX] ISSUES AND YET CHEVY WILL NOT RECOGNIZE/TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR OBVIOUS...

THE HEADLIGHTS GO OFF AFTER A WHILE OF USE AS IF THE OVER HEAT AND GO OFF ONCE THEY COOL OFF THEY COME BACK ON BUT THEY GO OFF AFTER ABOUT 15 MINS OF USE. ONLY THE BRIGHTS WILL WORK AT THIS TIME. SO NOT ONLY IS IT A SAFETY HAZARD TO ME THAT MY LIGHTS JUST GO OFF OUT OF NOWHERE THEN I HAVE TO TURN MY BRIGHTS ON WHICH IS A SAFETY HAZARD TO OTHER PEOPLE AND AGAINST THE WALL YOU HAVE A RECALL ON THE 2006 MODEL FOR THE SAME PROBLEM WHY WOULD YOU NOT HAVE THE RECALL ON THE 2005 MODEL THAT OBVIOUSLY HAS THE SAME ISSUE THEY GO OFF ON BACK ROADS THEY GO OFF ON THE HIGHWAY THEY GO OFF IN THE CITY THEY GO OFF IN THE COUNTRY THEY GO OFF ANYWHERE THAT I'M DRIVING ANYTIME THAT THE HEADLIGHTS ARE ON THAT WILL...

TAKATA RECALL ALL THE GAUGES ON MY TRAILBLAZER HAVE STOPPED WORKING EXCEPT THE GAS AND TEMPERATURE GAUGE. WHILE I WAS DRIVING 2 WEEKS AGO ON THE HIGHWAY MY GAUGES JUST QUIT WORKING AND THE NEEDLES DROPPED TO THE BOTTOM.

CONTROL PANEL ON DRIVERS DOOR IS NO LONGER FUNCTIONAL, DURING A HEAVY RAINSTORM I GOT OUT OF MY TRUCK, CLOSED THE DOOR AND RAN TO MY HOUSE. THE NEXT DAY THE CONTROLS NO LONGER WORKED. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME I'VE LEFT MY VEHICLE WHILE RAINING BUT THE FIRST TIME THE CONTROLS STOPPED WORKING. THIS WAS A RECALL ITEM IN OTHER YEARS 2006-2007. CHERY DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THIS BEING THE SAME ISSUE IN THE 2005 MODEL. CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER RECALL - #13V248000. FLUID MAY ENTER THE DRIVER'S DOOR MODULE, CAUSING CORROSION THAT COULD RESULT IN A SHORT IN THE CIRCUIT BOARD. A SHORT MAY CAUSE THE POWER DOOR LOCK AND POWER WINDOW SWITCHES TO FUNCTION INTERMITTENTLY OR BECOME INOPERATIVE. THE SHORT MAY ALSO CAUSE OVERHEATING, WHICH COULD MELT COMPONENTS OF THE DOOR MODULE, PRODUCING ODOR, SMOKE, OR A FIRE.

WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT I HAVE AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM WHERE THE HEADLAMP LOW BEAMS JUST GO OUT. I HAVE MOVED RELAYS AROUND BUT IT DOESN'T CORRECT THE PROBLEM. I HAVE BEEN STOPPED BY POLICE SEVERAL TIMES BECAUSE I AM BLINDING OTHER DRIVERS BECAUSE I HAVE TO DRIVE WITH BRIGHTS LIT. I SEE THEY RECALLED THE 2006 AND LATER MODELS FOR THIS PROBLEM. I WORK AT A SHOP AND WE SEE , ON AVERAGE, 10 PER YEAR THAT ARE 2005 AND THAT'S JUST IN OUR SMALL COMMUNITY. IF I SET A HALF HOUR, SOMETIMES AN HOUR THEN THE DIMS START WORKING AGAIN. THE MOST RECENT TIME WAS MAY 5TH OF 2018

IT ALL STARTED WHAEN I FILLED THE TANK OF GAS EVEN WHEN FULL THE GAUGE WENT CRAZY NEVER MARKED THE REAL AMOUT NOW ALL THE PANEL IS NOT FUNCTIONING ANS SOMETIMES TURNS ALL LIGHT AND STOPS WORKING AIR WINDOWS ETC.

SO I CAN'T REALLY DRIVE AT NIGHT AS MY DIM LIGHTS JUST STOP WORKING. YES I HAVE BRIGHTS AND I HAVE BEEN STOPPED TWICE AND TICKETED ONCE FOR THE ISSUE OF FAILURE TO DIM. THIS IS RIDICULOUS AS THEY ARE RECALLING ALL THE NEWER MODELS BUT NOT THE 2005. I AM FRUSTRATED BECAUSE I HAVE EVEN MOVED RELAYS AROUND BUT NOTHINGS HELPS EXCEPT TO SET ON SIDE OF HIGHWAY FOR A COUPLE HOURS BEFORE THEY APPARENTLY COL DOWN? YOU TELL ME

SINCE THE PURCHASE MY TB ENGINE WILL STOP WHEN AC AND HEATER IS ON ON STOP LIGHT, THAT IT WAS DELAYING WHILE DRIVING. IT GOT WORSE AFTER "WARRANTY WAS OUT, I BELIEVE IN JULY 2007.NO ONE CAN FIND THE CAUSE, BUT THINKING ITS ALL SYSTEM FAULTY., ENGINE, ELECTRONICS, FANS. COULD I AFFORD A NEW CAR, I WOULD NOT KEEP THIS CAR, AS NOW I KNOW IT WAS THE WORSE YEAR MAKING OF ALL. NOW I ONLY PRAY TO STAY ALIVE WHILE DRIVING AND NOT GET INTO SOME BEYOND MY CONTROL BUT FAULTY GM MODEL MAKERS

MY GAUGES ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL HAS STOPPED WORKING. FIRST, ABOUT A YEAR AGO MY TAC AND OIL PRESSURE GAUGES STOPPED WORKING. THEN A FEW MONTHS LATER, THE TEMP GAUGE. NOW, LAST WEEK MY GAS GAUGE STOPPED.

MY SPEEDOMETER STOPPED WORKING MY GAS GAIGE STOPPED WORKING AND MY ODOMETER WENT OUT CANT SEE THE MILELAGE AND I DONT KNOW HOW MUCH GAS IS IN THE TAKE,AND THE SPEED IS MOT WORKING.I REMEMBER A RECALL AWHILE AGO IF YOU HAD THE PROBLEM THEY SAID AND I DIDNT AT THAT TIME I THINK IT WAS 2011

WHEN YOU TURN THE HEAT OR AIR ON HIGH THE RED WIRE ON THE BLOWER MOTOR RESISTOR GETS HOT AND MELTS AND I HAVE 2 LITTLE GIRLS THAT RIDE IN THIS VEHICLE. THIS ISN'T NORMAL

GAUGES ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL STOPPED WORKING. THERE ARE CURRENTLY 3 GAUGES NOT WORKING ON MY INSTRUMENT PANEL INCLUDING THE SPEEDOMETER AND THE GAS GAUGE. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS NOT KNOWING WHEN YOUR GAS TANK IS EMPTY OR HOW FAST YOUR GOING. THE GAUGES DO NOT WORK WHETHER I AM DRIVING OR STOPPED.

SPEEDOMETER DOES NOT WORK ANY LONGER,4 WHEEL DRIVE DOES NOT ENGAGE

NOV.2013 WAS THE FRIST TIME WE HAD A PROPLEM, RIGHT AFTER THAT THE OIL GAUGE WAS NOT WORKING. ON AN OFF WE HAVE NOTICED OTHER TYPE OF PROBLEM THAT SEEM TO BE ELECTRICAL. FOR THE LAST YEAR \YEAR AN HALF MY GAS IS ALL OVER THE PLACE, ALWAYS STOPPING TO GET GAS AS NOT TO GIVE OUT. ALSO, MY GEAR AND MILEAGE GAUGE DOES NOT WORK. NOW HAVE NO IDEA WHEN TO CHANGE THE OIL OR ROTATE TIRES

GM IGNITION SWITCH PROBLEMS/RECALL. ON 07/18/2014 I TOOK MY 2005 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER (32,262 MI.) IN FOR SERVICE TO FIX/REPLACE PARTS: FAULTY IGNITION SWITCH. TODAY, 06/02/2017, MY TRAILBLAZER (35,193 MI.) IS STILL HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. A FAULTY IGNITION SWITCH WHICH IS CAUSING ABS AND PARKING BRAKES LIGHTS TO COME ON AND STAY ON, THE BLOWER FOR AIR/VENT WILL NOT WORK AND SINCE THESE PARTS ARE ALL CONNECTED ELECTRICALLY, I ONCE AGAIN HAVE TO REPLACE THE FAULTY IGNITION SWITCH. I WAS NEVER REIMBURSED FOR THE FIRST RECALL. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS MATTER. I WOULD HATE TO GET RID OF A PERFECTLY GOOD VEHICLE, THAT HAS HELD UP ALL OF THIS TIME, I ONLY HAVE 35,200 MILES ON THIS 2005 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. WILL THE IGNITION SWITCH KEEP FAILING ON THIS VEHICLE? THANK YOU.

WHEN DRIVING VEHICLE BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS GO OUT. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED WAS WHEN I WAS DRIVING LONG DISTANCE IN THE DARK. HAD TO DRIVE WITH MY HIGH BEAMS ON FOR THE REST OF THE TRIP. THERE IS NO SPECIFIC TIME FRAME, BUT GENERALLY IT HAPPENS ANYWHERE FROM 10- 30 MINUTES OF DRIVING. I SUSPECT IT IS HEAT RELATED. I HAVE CHANGED THE HEADLIGHT RELAY #46, BIT IT ONLY FIXED THE PROBLEM FOR A WEEK. AGAIN THE LIGHTS WILL GO OUT AFTER DRIVING SEVERAL MINUTES. I NOTICED THERE IS A RECALL FOR A SIMILAR ISSUE ON THE 2006 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER. COULD THIS BE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH MY VEHICLE. THERE ARE ALSO MULTIPLE FORUMS EXPLAINING THE SAME EXACT ISSUE WITH EARLY 2000 MODEL TRAILBLAZERS. THIS ISSUE HAPPENED APPROX 6 MONTHS AGO. LAST WEEK WE RAN INTO ANOTHER PROBLEM. OUR ABS LIGHT COMES ON PERIODICALLY. LIKE...

THE DRIVER'S DOOR MASTER POWER WINDOW SWITCH MODULE GOT HOT & STARTED SMOKING. REMOVING AND LOOKING AT IT SHOWED THAT IT CAUGHT ON FIRE. IT LOOKS LIKE IT STARTED SOMEWHERE ON THE CIRCUIT BOARD. IT SEEMS IDENTICAL TO THE PROBLEM LISTED ON THE 2006 CHEVY TRAILBLAZERS. (NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V599000) IT HAPPENED IN 2015. I'VE JUST BEEN HOLDING ONTO THE PART BECAUSE I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH IT & THE LOCAL DEALER WASN'T ANY HELP.

WHILE DRIVING, THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW CONTROL STARTED SMOKING, THEN IT QUIT WORKING

I BOUGHT THIS CAR USED IN 2009. IT HAD ABOUT 60000 MILES ON IT. 1) THE FIRST PROBLEM I HAD WITH IT WAS A BURNOUT OF THE HAC BLOWER PLUG, THAT PART OF THE WIRING HARNESS HAD TO BE CUT OUT AND REPLACED WTH A COMPLETELY NEW PLUG( BOTH HALVES) AND REWIRED IN FOR A COST OF 125.OO AND 3 HOURS OF LABOUR. I LOOKED THIS UP ON THE INTERNET VERY COMMON PROBLEM 2) RIDER SIDE DOOR CONTROL PANEL STOPPED WORKING WITH STRONG ODOR OF BURNT PLASTIC. AGAIN LOOKED UP AND FOUND THERE WAS A RECALL, BUT ONLY 2006 VEHICLES 3)BRAKES BURN OUT OF ROTORS ONLY ON RIGHTSIDE- LEFT SIDE ROTORS WERE FINE, BRAKE JOB WITH REPLACEMENT OF 2 LEFT ROTORS I FRONT PISTON AMD ALL 8 PADS 650.00. FAILURE OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREET 4) FAILURE OF IGNITION SWITCH WITH ERRATIC ELECTRICAL FUNCTION OF RUNNING LIGHTS, RADIO AND...

FUEL GAUGE ALWAYS SHOWS EMPTY, NOT WORKING. NO WAY TO KNOW HOW MUCH GAS IS IN THE CAR. OIL GAUGE NOT WORKING.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLAMPS FAIL SIMULTANEOUSLY. THIS OCCURS WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. I HAVE REPLACED THE HDM SOLID STATE RELAY TWICE, BUT AFTER A TIME. 6 MONTHS TO A YEAR, THE FAILURE OCCURS AGAIN. ONCE THE HDM MODULE BECAME TO HOT TO TOUCH UPON FAILING. THIS LAST TIME, THE THIRD, THE LIGHTS MAY COME ON AGAIN AFTER SOME TIME HAS PASSED. IT IS AS IF THE MODULE IS SHORT CIRCUITING OR OVERHEATING LEADING TO A SHORT CIRCUIT.

THE LOW FUEL GAUGE INDICATOR REMAINS ON EVEN AFTER I FILL MY FUEL TANK. THE INDICATOR NEVER GOES OFF AT ANYTIME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY WITHOUT THE KEYS IN THE IGNITION, A FIRE ORIGINATED FROM THE DRIVER'S DOOR NEAR THE WINDOW SWITCH. THE CONTACT EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 159,000.

AS OF 2011 (WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAYS IN MULTIPLE OCCASIONS) I'VE BEEN HAVING ELECTRICAL ISSUES SUCH AS MY FUEL LEVEL GAGE WOULD READ FULL AND VEHICLE WOULD SHUT OFF CAUSE NO GAS IN TANK, AIR BAGS SENSOR WOULD SHOW IT ON WHEN NO ONE IS SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT, AND THERE ARE SOME ELECTRICAL ISSUES ON DRIVER SEAT CONTROLS NOT WORKING, DASH BOARD GAGES NOT SHOWING READINGS WHILE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION (RMP, SPEEDOMETER, OIL, GAS).

SINCE 2011 I'VE BEEN HAVING WRONG READING OF GAS LEVELS CAUSING MY VEHICLE TO SHUTOFF. PLUS MY PASSAGER AIR BAG DISPLAYS ON WHEN NO ONE IS SITTING IN SEAT AND WHEN SOMEONE IS SITTING IN PASSAGER SEAT IT OCCASIONALLY FLICKER ON AND OFF. HOWEVER I HAVE NOT HAD A INCIDENT JUST YET BUT I'M VERY CONCERNED AND DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING WITH MY KIDS IN THIS VEHICLE.

THE SPEEDOMETER WILL NOT WORK PROPERLY. IT WILL BE STUCK AND THEN IT WILL NOT DISPLAY THE CORRECT SPEED WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR FOR 2 YEARS. ALSO THE FAN CONTROL SWITCH STOPS WORKING AT THE SAME RATE. SOME DAYS IT WORKS AND SOME DAYS IT WON'T.

SPEEDOMETER DOES NOT WORK MOST OFTEN AND WHEN IT DOES, DOES NOT SHOW AN ACCURATE READING.

FUEL GAUGE NOT WORKING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE STALLED AFTERWARDS. AFTER APPROXIMATELY TWO MINUTES, THE VEHICLE STARTED NORMALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO THE DEALER AND THE DIAGNOSIS WAS THAT THE ABS SENSOR, THE OXYGEN SENSOR, THE BRAKE PADS, THE CLUSTER MODULE AND THE FUEL SENDER LEVER HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS BEING REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 178,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME DIFFICULT TO TURN AND THE SPEEDOMETER FAILED. IN ADDITION, THE REAR HATCH LOCK FAILED CAUSING THE CONTACT TO BE UNABLE TO UNLOCK THE REAR HATCH AND THE FRONT ROTORS FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, WHO REPLACED THE POWER STEERING PUMP AND THE FRONT ROTORS. THE SPEEDOMETER AND REAR HATCH WERE NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THERE WAS A STRONG ABNORMAL ODOR PRESENT INSIDE THE VEHICLE AND THE ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 58,584.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE'S DOOR POWER SWITCH FAILED TO FUNCTION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 120,000.

THE GAUGE CLUSTER, SPEAKERS AND OCCASIONALLY LIGHTS STOP WORKING AT VARIOUS TIMES, THE GAUGES EITHER REGISTER COMPLETELY MAXED OUT, MINIMUM OR SOMEWHERE OBVIOUSLY WRONG. EXAMPLE FUEL GAUGE WAY PAST FULL, OIL PRESSURE GAUGE READING 0, CHARGE GAUGE MAXED OUT TACHOMETER COMPLETELY OFF THE SCALE AND SPEEDOMETER INOPERABLE. REAR SPEAKERS WORK SOMETIMES AND BULBS IN BRAKE LIGHTS AND TAIL LIGHTS KEEP BLOWING OUT. THE GAUGES ARE OF MOST CONCERN AS THE TRUE VALUES OF FUEL LEVEL, OIL PRESSURE, BATTERY VOLTAGE AND ENGINE TEMP ARE RARELY ACCURATE (OR EVEN CLOSE). THE SPEED WILL NOT OPERATE AT TIMES AND OCCASIONALLY IF THE VEHICLE IS RESTARTED THE SPEEDOMETER WILL CORRECT ITSELF. ALL THESE CONDITIONS CREATE SAFETY CONCERNS ON SOME LEVEL FROM RUNNING OUT OF GAS IN A LESS THAN DESIRABLE LOCATION, DRIVING AT INCORRECT SPEEDS, OVERHEATING ENGINE WITHOUT WARNING OR ENGINE PROBLEMS. LOSING A TAIL LIGHT NOT ONLY CREATES A SAFETY CONCERN FOR TRAFFIC...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, ALL THE GAUGES ON THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER FAILED. THE FAILURE OCCURRED CONSTANTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET BLAZER. WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS WERE ACTIVATED AND ILLUMINATED INTERMITTENTLY. THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WARNING INDICATORS ALSO ILLUMINATED. IN ADDITION, THE HIGH BEAM HEADLIGHTS EXPERIENCED THE SAME FAILURE WHEN ACTIVATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 150,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. WHILE DRIVING AT 60 MPH, THE HEADLIGHTS FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO RESTART AND THE HEADLIGHTS RESUMED TO NORMAL OPERATION. THE CONTACT WAS ADVISED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V755000 (EXTERIOR LIGHTING). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 152,000.

FUEL GUAGE IS NOT ACCURATE. WHEN THE TANK IS FULL THE GUAGE REGISTERS EMPTY.

I HAVE LOTS OF ISSUES WITH MY TRAILBLAZER. JUST TODAY MY A/C QUIT BLOWING. I'VE HAD ENOUGH SO DECIDED TO RESEARCH ONLINE. GLAD I DID BECAUSE IT SEEMS THAT THERE REALLY IS A PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES. FIRST OFF I MY GAUGES(ALL OF THEM, INCLUDING FUEL GAUGE) STARTED TO ACT UP. SOMETIMES THEY WORKED AND OTHER TIMES THEY WERE WAY OFF OR JUST HANGING. THE FUEL GAUGE AND SPEEDOMETER NO LONGER WORK AT ALL. THIS ALL STARTED YEARS AGO. I HAVE JUST LIVED WITH IT AS I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO FIX THEM. MY HEADLIGHTS STARTED GOING ON AND OFF AT RANDOM ABOUT TWO YEARS AGO. ALSO SOMETHING I HAVE JUST LIVED WITH AS I DON'T DO TOO MUCH NIGHT TIME DRIVING. NOW THAT MY A/C IS NOT BLOWING I WILL HAVE TO DO SOMETHING. I LIVE IN FLORIDA, AND AM NOT GOING TO ALLOW MY DAUGHTER AND I...
