2005 Chevrolet Trailblazer Ext 370

ON, 6/17/12, MY DAUGHTER AND I WERE DRIVING EAST BOUND I-96 AND INVOLVED IN A NON-FATAL INJURY ACCIDENT BTWN BEECH DALY & INKSTER. THE ACCIDENT STARTED IN THE FAR RIGHT LANE AND ENDED WITH SUV FACING OPPOSITE DIRECTION OF TRAFFIC, LEFT LANE OF HWY. I HIT A POTHOLE, APPROXIMATE DIAMETER OF A YARD STICK, FILLED WITH WATER AND IT SEEMS LIKE I LOST CONTROL OF THE STEERING; ALMOST AS IF THE VEHICLE HAD INSTANTLY SHUT DOWN. THE VEHICLE EASILY COMPLETED AT LEAST A 360 SPIN OUT. WE WERE ABLE TO WALK AWAY WITH MINIMAL INJURIES DUE TO CLIPPING ANOTHER SUV TAIL END INSTANTLY BEFORE GOING STRAIGHT INTO THE CEMENT HIGHWAY DIVIDER! I DIDN'T REALIZE HOW MUCH MUSCLE STRENGTHENING WOULD BE INVOLVED IN MINE AND MY DAUGHTERS' HEALING PROCESS. I HAVE BEEN IN TO SEE AN INTERNIST, NEUROLOGICAL SURGEON, PHYSICAL THERAPIST, OCCUPATIONAL THERAPIST, MASSAGE THERAPIST, NOT TO MENTION ALL OF THE CAT SCANS, MRIS, ETC. PERFORMED AT MULTIPLE HOSPITAL LOCATIONS. MY VEHICLE INSURANCE CARRIER WAS NOTIFIED OF MY HEALTH INSURANCE RESTRICTIONS PRIOR TO SIGNING WITH THEM AND PRIOR TO THE MVI. THE REDFORD, MI POLICE REPORT INDICATES NO INJURIES BECAUSE NEITHER MYSELF NOR MY DAUGHTER WERE TAKEN AWAY BY AMBULANCE SINCE THE INJURIES WERE NOT LIFE THREATENING AND WE WERE BOTH IN FORMAL ATTIRE, BOTH BRIDAL PARTY MEMBERS. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED AND TOTALED BY INSURANCE, LOAN PAID IN FULL; HOWEVER, APPARENTLY CONCERNS HAVE AROSE TO, PERHAPS, TO THE EXTENT OF OUR INJURIES SO NO MEDICAL PROCEDURES HAVE NOT BEEN PAID TO ANY OF THE SERVICE PROVIDERS, AS OF TODAY'S DATE (11/15/14). MY DAUGHTER AND I WERE PICKED UP BY ANOTHER GUEST ATTENDEE SO WE WEREN'T HOLDING UP PROGRESS, BEING IN THE WEDDING PARTY AND CARRYING ALL DECOR FOR AFTERWARD FESTIVITIES. NONE OF THE VEHICLE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED AND WE WERE GOING 60-65MPH (FRONT, SIDE, REAR, NO WHERE)! THANK YOU, GM, MDOT AND CURRENT EMPLOYEES FOR STAYING TRUE TO USA & MI! *TR

I TOOK A LEFT TURN WITH MY 2005 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER EXT. AND FISHTAILED ON SOME ICE AND MY SIDE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. I HAVE READ SEVERAL OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ON THE INTERNET AND GM HAS TOLD THOSE PEOPLE THAT THE BLACK BOX SAID THAT THE AIRBAG SYSTEM ANTICIPATED A ROLLOVER AND THEY HAVE NOT PAID TO HAVE THE DAMAGE FIXED. I HAVE TOLD GM THIS HAS HAPPENED AND AM WAITING TO HEAR BACK FROM THEM BUT AM EXPECTING THE SAME VERDICT THAT EVERYONE ELSE HAS RECEIVED. I DON'T SEE HOW FISHTAILING ON WET PAVEMENT, ICE, OR IN SOME INSTANCES OR AROUND SOMETHING CAN CAUSE AIRBAGS TO DEPLOY. I HAVE AIRBAGS THAT NEED TO BE REPLACED, THE INTERIOR ROOF NEEDS TO BE REPLACED, AND THE SEAT BELTS ARE ALL LOCKED UP AND CAN'T BE USED. *TR

STARTED WITH THE SERVICE AIR BAG MESSAGE (KNOWN ISSUE). THEN THE FUEL GAUGE ACTED UP AND FINALLY WENT TO E AND STAYED. NOW HAVE AND OCCASIONAL SURGE IN THE FUEL WHEN I HAVE THE BRAKE PRESSED (KNOWN ISSUES). SPEEDOMETER STARTING ACTING UP AND NO LONGER WORKS (KNOWN ISSUE). OH AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS NOW ALWAYS ON. STARTED INTERMITTENTLY (AGAIN, KNOWN ISSUE). WAS TOLD $500 FROM DEALER WHEN I CALLED TO REPORT THE SERVICE AIR BAG MESSAGE. RECALL SHOULD APPLY TO THIS VEHICLE, I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE VEHICLE WENT THROUGH BEFORE I PURCHASED IT. CLOTH SEATS/LEATHER SEATS, THE SERVICE AIR BAG "SENSOR" IS STILL BROKE! DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO FIX ALL THE "KNOWN" PROBLEMS. *TR

ON SEPTEMBER 28TH 2006 I WAS DRIVING MY 2005 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER EXT DOWN THE ROAD BETWEEN 55 AND 60 MPH. IT HAD STARTED RAINING ABOUT 5 MINUTES EARLIER. I STARTED UP THE HILL AND WAS APPROACHING THE OTHER ROAD I NEEDED TO TURN ON AND GENTLY APPLIED THE BRAKES. AS SOON AS I APPLIED THE BRAKES, THE VEHICLE WENT OUT OF CONTROL. I TRIED TO PUMP THE BRAKES AND GET THE VEHICLE BACK INTO CONTROL BUT HAD NO LUCK. I THEN CROSSED THE CENTER LINE AND CRASHED HEAD ON INTO THE GUARD RAIL ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROAD. AFTER I HIT THE GUARD RAIL I BOUNCED OFF OF THAT AND HIT AN ON COMING VEHICLE IN THE PASSENGER SIDE WITH THE FRONT END OF MY CAR. I THEN PROCEEDED TO CONTINUE BACK TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROAD AND JUMP A 4FT DITCH AND FINALLY CAME TO A STOP ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE DITCH. THE FUNNY THING IS THAT THIS ALL HAPPENED WHILE I WAS TRAVELING UP HILL!!! I TRULY BELIEVE THE SO CALLED FOUR WHEEL ANTI-LOCK BRAKES FAILED. THE AIR BAGS NEVER DEPLOYED EITHER! AFTER THE CRASH THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE HAD A HUGE HOLE IN THE SIDE WALL AND I AM NOT TOO SURE THAT THIS WASN'T PART OF THE PROBLEM. THE TORN PART OF THE TIRE IS STICKING OUT AND SEEMS LIKE IT FAILED TOO. I JUST WISH I COULD GET SOMEONE TO INVESTIGATE THIS (GOODYEAR TIRES). *NM
