2005 Chevrolet Trailblazer Ext 370

THE WHOLE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DOES NOT WORK ANYMORE, DOES NOT LET ME KNOW HOW FAST I'M GOING OR HOW MUCH FUEL I HAVE, OIL PRESSURE GAUGE DOESN'T WORK, TEMPERATURE GAUGE DOESN'T WORK... WHY HASN'T THIS BEEN RECALLED? THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS, CONSIDERING I HAVE 4 KIDS THAT ARE CONSTANTLY IN THE CAR WITH ME AND I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IS GOING ON WITH MY VEHICLE?? AND IT ALSO TELLS ME THAT MY FUEL LEVEL IS LOW, EVEN AFTER I FILL MY TANK. THIS SEEMS LIKE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM IN THESE VEHICLES, WHY HAS IT NOT BEEN CONSIDERED A SAFETY ISSUE????

I HAVE 2005 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER 4WD EXT LS 4.2 LITER. I NOTICED OVER PAST 3 YEARS THAT I BE AT DRIVE THROUGH FOR BURGERS AND ETC. THE CAR WOULD CUT OFF. I DID NOT THINK MUCH OF IT AT THE TIME. IT HAS GOTTEN CRITICALLY WORSE. IT WOULD CUT OFF IN MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY, DRIVE THROUGHS AND ETC. DURING THE PAST TWO YEARS I HAVE RE THE LUSTER AND OVER HEAD DOME LIGHT FLICKER. HEAD LIGHTS VERY DIM ON DRIVING ALSO I HAVE REPLACED ON THIS VEHICLE THE FUEL THROTTLE AND SENSOR, A CRANK SENSOR A CAM SENSOR, A TEMP SENSOR 4 POWER STEERING PUMPS NEW THE POWER STEERING RACK AND ASSEMBLY WHEEL HUBS AND BEARINGS, ALL NEW COILS SPARK PLUGS, BELT IDLE PULLEY POWER STEERING PULLEY CHANGE OIL EVERY 3,000 MILES AIR FILTER CHANGE BATTERY, UPDATED SOFT WARE, FLUSH FUEL SYSTEM, SERVICE THE AIR CONDITION REPLACED REAR SHOCKS, GM RELACED PULLEY ON ENGINE 2010 REPLACED THE PVC HOSE FLUSH RADIATOR AND BRAKE SYSTEM, ROTATION AND ALIGNMENT DONE EVERY 5000 MILES, REPLACED HEADLIGHT LOW BEAM BULBS AND LEFT TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY AND LENS, I HAD IT TO CHEVROLET PRIVATE MECHANIC GARAGE AND NOTHING IS READING WRONG ALSO NOTICE THE ECM NOT STORING THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT STAY A MICROSECOND ON. THIS HIGHLY DANGEROUS CAN STAL OR QUIT AND BE RUN OVER ON HIGHWAY. I NOTICED ON THE WEB ON CARS COMPLAINT.COM AMANY PEOPLE HAVE CMPLAINTED THIS ISSUE.CHEVROLET HAD INVESTIGATED THS ISSUE AAAAAND NO RESOLVE. I FELT THE VEHIHICLE MAY HAVE A SHORT R A BAD ALTERNATOR OR STARTER. .VEHIVLE WAS SITTING AT INTERSECTION I NOTICED IT TRIES TO STALL ON DRIVING ALSO. ALL RECORDS ARE WITH CAR.

FOR THE 3RD TIME THE CLUSTER HAS GONE OUT. THIS RESULTS IN THE SPEEDOMETER, TEMPERATURE GAUGE AND OTHERS TO STOP WORKING. EACH TIME I AM EXPECTED TO TAKE MY VEHICLE TO A CHEVROLET MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSIS AND PART REPLACEMENT AT $700.00+ EACH TIME. THIS MODEL HAS NO RECALL. I AM FED UP WITH PAYING THIS MUCH EVERY 3-4 YEARS FOR A DEFECTIVE PART. THERE HAS NEVER BEEN ANY SIGN BEFORE IT GOES OUT.

THERE IS ALREADY A RECALL OUT FOR THE 2006 MODEL YEAR, BUT I KNOW THAT MINE IS PART OF IT. I HAVE A 2005 TRAILBLAZER AND THE HEADLIGHTS KEEP INTERMITTENTLY GOING OUT AS I AM DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THIS PROBLEM AS HAPPENED TO ME BEFORE IN THE PAST AND I WAS ABLE TO FINALLY REMEDY THE ISSUE BY REPLACING THE RELAY. THE PROBLEM HAS NOW RETURNED AND I HAVE EVEN BEEN PULLED OVER MULTIPLE TIMES FOR IT. AFTER DOING A QUICK GOOGLE SEARCH TODAY I DISCOVERED THAT THERE ARE TONS!!!!! OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME ISSUE GOING BACK AS FAR AS 2002. HTTP://WWW.TOPIX.COM/FORUM/AUTOS/CHEVROLET-TRAILBLAZER/T32JTL93I9FKAUF4N HTTP://FORUMS.TRAILVOY.COM/SHOWTHREAD.PHP?T=47492 HTTP://CHEVROLETFORUM.COM/FORUM/TRAILBLAZER-27/2003-TRAILBLAZER-HEADLIGHTS-2588/ I ALSO RAN ACROSS THAT GM HAS ISSUED A RECALL FOR HEADLIGHTS, BUT IT ONLY COVERS YEARS 2006-2008. HTTP://FORTUNE.COM/2014/12/01/GM-RECALLS-316000-VEHICLES-BECAUSE-OF-MALFUNCTIONING-HEADLIGHTS/ CLEARLY!!!! THIS PROBLEM IS NOT LIMITED TO THOSE YEARS AND THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE SUFFERING FROM THE SAME ISSUE OF NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE AT NIGHT.. WHAT DO I NEED TO DO SO THAT I CAN GET THIS PROBLEM TAKEN CARE OF? PLEASE RESPOND QUICKLY AS WINTER IS RAPIDLY APPROACHING AND THIS IS A DAILY DRIVER FOR ME. I GO TO WORK EARLY IN THE MORNING WHEN IT IS DARK AND BY THE TIME I COME HOME AGAIN IT IS ALREADY GETTING DARK. IT WOULD BE NICE TO ACTUALLY BE ABLE TO SEE AS I AM GOING DOWN THE ROAD AND EVEN TO HAVE OTHERS BE ABLE TO SEE ME COMING AS WELL.

ELECTRICAL ISSUES:VEHICLE DASHBOARD LIGHTS WILL SHOW DOOR GATE OPEN, DOOM LIGHTS WIL BE ON, RINGING BELL WHEN THE DOOR WOULD BE OPEN AND YET ITS ACTUALLY CLOSED, AS ALL CONTINUES TO GO AT ANY GIVEN TIME WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOVEMENT. SPEED ODOMETER GAGE DOESN'T READ WHEN VEHICLE IS IN MOVEMENT AND THE GAS GAGE DOESN'T READ THE CORRECT LEVEL OF SHOWING HOW MUCH GAS IS IN VEHICLE. THIS IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUES CAUSE IT HAS ME WORRIED OF NOT KNOWING HOW MUCH GAS I HAVE BEFORE IT RUNS OUT OF GAS RISKING MYSELF AND OTHERS BECAUSE VEHICLE ALL OF A SUDDENNESS LOSES SPEED AND SHUTS DOWN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER EXT 370. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WHEN THERE WAS MOISTURE IN THE AIR, THE DRIVER SIDE MASTER SWITCH FAILED TO OPERATE WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V248000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VISIBILITY). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 139,000.

SINCE OCTOBER 2014 THE SPEEDOMETER WOULD RANDOMLY START UP AT DIFFERENT INITIAL POINTS. SOME DAYS IT WOULD START AT 60 MPH, 10MPH AND RECENTLY IT STARTS UP AT 110MPH. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION THE NEEDLE WOULD MOVE WHEN ACCELERATING BUT THE READINGS ARE COMPLETELY INACCURATE. I HAVE READ VARIOUS ONLINE BLOGS OF THIS SAME INCIDENT HAPPENING TO NUMEROUS CHEVY TRAILBLAZERS IN GENERAL. GM DOES NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM AS A RECALL THEREFORE I WOULD FORMALLY LIKE TO MAKE A COMPLAINT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR

MY HUSBAND BOUGHT THE CAR USED FOR ME FOR CHRISTMAS 2013. I WAS DRIVING THROUGH THE CITY WHEN I LOOKED DOWN TO SEE HOW FAST I WAS GOING THE SPEEDOMETER SAID 0 IT REMAINED THAT WAY UNTIL THE NEXT DAY. I STARTED IT THE NEXT DAY IT SEEMED FINE BUT AFTER A 1/2 MILE I NOTICED I SPED UP AND SPEEDOMETER WAS GOING DOWN UNTIL IT FINALLY WENT TO 0. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING WITH A SPEEDOMETER THAT DOESN'T WORK. I LOOKED ONLINE AND SEEN THAT A LOT OF OTHER CONSUMERS WERE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM SOME WITH MUCH LESS MILEAGE. *TR
