2005 Chevrolet Trailblazer

THE HEATER LEVELS STARTED TO GO OUT. FIRST 5, THEN 1 UNTIL IT NO LONGER WORKED AT ALL. I GOT IT REPAIRED BUT THE 5TH LEVEL DOES NOT WORK ANY MORE. THE LEFT HALF OF THE RADIO/CD PLAYER NO LONGER LIGHTS UP. MY GAS GAUGE WOULD ONLY REGISTER A QUARTER TANK AND THEN WOULD EVENTUALLY DROPPED TO EMPTY. IT NO LONGER WORKS AT ALL. MOST RECENTLY MY SPEEDOMETER WILL OCCASIONALLY QUIT WORKING OR REGISTER THE WRONG SPEED. I HAVE TO SHUT THE CAR OFF AND RESTART UNTIL IT WORKS AGAIN. ALSO, MY TACHOMETER GOES WAY UP WHEN I BEGIN DRIVING AND THE CAR SEEMS TO REV WAY UP BEFORE IT CHANGES GEARS AND JERKS INTO GEAR. I QUESTIONED A MECHANIC ABOUT THIS, THINKING IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION, WHICH IT ISN'T. THERE DOESN'T SEEM TO BE ENOUGH POWER. I HAVE CONSTANTLY HAD ISSUES WITH THIS TRAILBLAZER EVERY SINCE I PURCHASED IT. I ALSO OWNED A BLAZER AT ONE TIME AND ALSO HAD A LOT OF TROUBLE WITH IT. I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN BETTER TO PURCHASE ANOTHER CHEVY, BUT NEVER AGAIN! *TR

I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE IN DEC 2010 FOR MY BIRTHDAY, THEN STARTED SMELLING GAS SO TOOK IT BACK TO DEALER AND THEY REPLACED THE FLOATER IN GAS TANK AND IT WAS FINE FOR AWHILE, THEN ONE DAY I WENT AND FILLED UP THE TANK, GOT IN AND STARTED IT UP AND IT SAID EMPTY AND HAD THE LIGHT ON (WHEN I KNEW IT WAS FULL), SINCE THEN I HAVE HAD TO RELY ON THE MILES TO KNOW IF I STILL HAVE GAS, WHICH IS HARD TO DO IF YOU DON'T FILL IT UP ALL THE TIME. I AM AFRAID OF HAVING MY GRANDSONS WITH ME ONE DAY AND RUNNING OUT OF GAS BECAUSE IT DON'T WORK..PLEASE RECALL THIS IT IS VERY DANGEROUS TO NOT KNOW IF YOU HAVE ENOUGH GAS WHEN YOU HAVE TO GO SOMEWHERE. THIS SHOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED SINCE IT WAS JUST FIXED A FEW MONTHS AGO. WILL THIS BE AN ONGOING PROBLEM? I GREW UP WITH CHEVY'S MY DAD USE TO SAY WE WERE CHEVY COUNTRY AND MY UNCLE'S VEHICLES WERE FOUND ON THE ROAD DEAD (FORD) I USE TO BELIEVE THAT CHEVY WAS BEST VEHICLE MADE, BUT THIS IS CHANGING MY MIND. *TT

I BOUGHT MY 2005 TRAILBLAZER IN AUGUST 2008. IN OCTOBER 2008, THE REAR WINDOW HINGE ADHESIVE WAS SEPARATING CAUSING THE HATCH TO NOT CLOSE PROPERLY. THIS WAS REPLACED BY THE DEALERSHIP. NOW IN SEPTEMBER 2010 THE SAME THING IS HAPPENING. THE REAR WINDOW ADHESIVE HAS COMPLETELY DISCONNECTED FROM THE HINGE AND THE WINDOW DOES NOT CLOSE PROPERLY AND HAS A POSSIBILITY OF COMPLETELY FALLING OFF. WHEN THE ENTIRE REAR DOOR IS OPENED NOW THE HINGE 'POPS' UP AND HITS THE GLASS. THE DEALERSHIP IS TRYING TO FIND AN APPROPRIATE ADHESIVE TO MEND THIS PROBLEM AND THEY SAY CHEVY WILL NOT PAY FOR ANOTHER GLASS REPLACEMENT. THE FIRST REPLACEMENT CAME FROM THE FACTORY WITH THE HINGE CONNECTED TO THE GLASS. THIS SEEMS LIKE A FACTORY DEFECT. I KNOW THERE ARE OTHER CHEVY VEHICLES OF DIFFERENT YEARS THAT HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM AND WORSE WHEN THE DOORS DID FALL OFF OR THE GLASS SCATTERED DUE TO THE POOR ADHESIVE ON THE HINGE. THIS WILL COST OVER $800 TO REPLACE IF THIS CANNOT BE RESOLVED AND THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THE ADHESIVE ON THE NEW GLASS WILL HOLD AND I WILL HAVE NO RECOURSE. *TR

CHEVY TRAILBAZER 05... GAS GAUGE KEEPS MOVING FROM LOW TO EMPTY BACK TO FULL,SOMETIMES IT STAYS AT EMPTY. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON. FUEL SENDING UNIT KEEPS FAILING. UNIT WAS REPLACED IN 2007 AT DEALERSHIP. SENDING UNIT HAS GONE BAD AGAIN. VERY EXPENSIVE LABOR NEEDED TO FIX THIS. WHEN I FIXED THE FIRST TIME I HAD WARRANTY NOW IT HAS EXPIRED. I CHECKED ONLINE AND IT SEEMS LIKE EVERYONE WITH A CHEVY TRAILBLAZER IS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM ALSO MY..TO MY KNOWLEDGE THIS IS A COMPLETELY DEFECT OF THE CAR. MY MAJOR FEAR IS TO RUN OUT OF GAS ON THE HIGHWAY AND MY CAR TO STALL. LEADING TO AN ACCIDENT.....ALSO THE INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHT KEEP GETTING DARKER..SOMETIMES SEVERAL LIGHTS COME ON. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER LT AND LIVE IN BIRMINGHAM, AL. ON MY WAY HOME FROM CHURCH ON A SUNDAY MORNING, I ENCOUNTERED A SEVERE ISSUE WITH MY SPEEDOMETER. AS I WAS DRIVING UP ON A POLICE OFFICER I LOOKED AT MY SPEEDOMETER, WHICH SAID I WAS DOING 70 SO I BEGAN SLOWING DOWN BUT MY SPEEDOMETER DIDN'T - IT CONTINUED TO GO UP. I STARTED HITTING MY BRAKES THINKING THAT WOULD MAKE THE SPEEDOMETER GO BACK DOWN BUT IT DIDN'T. AS I PULLED OFF THE INTERSTATE AND STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT, THE SPEEDOMETER KEPT GOING UP TO 110 MPH. THEN AS THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN, I STARTED AGAIN AND THE SPEEDOMETER WENT STRAIGHT TO THE BOTTOM FACING THE FLOOR. I THOUGHT WHEN I GET HOME AND TURN THE CAR OFF, THE SPEEDOMETER WOULD RESET ITSELF. WELL ... IT DIDN'T!! I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M GOING TO DO NOW! THE ECONOMY IS SO !@#$% BAD THAT I'M IN THE MIDDLE OF A FORECLOSURE AND NOW THIS CRAP HAPPENS! GM SHOULD RECALL THIS FAULTY ISSUES AS IT IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION. IF YOU DON'T KNOW HOW FAST YOU ARE GOING ... HOW THE !@#$% DO YOU DRIVE WITHOUT A SPEEDOMETER UNLESS YOU ARE LOOKING TO GET IN TROUBLE BY THE LAW!! *TW
