“TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED, THE STEERING WHEEL JERKED AND PULLED TO THE RIGHT. THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE THE TECHNICIAN COULD NOT FIND A FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 148,000.”

“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.”

“THE ENGINE LIGHT CONSTANTLY COMES ON EVEN AFTER I HAD A TUNE UP. I HAD DIAGNOSTICS DONE AND THERE IS SOME TYPE OF FUEL MISFIRE. TWO WINTERS STRAIGHT I HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH THE POWER STEERING LINES BURSTING AND REPLACED 3 TIMES. THE SPEEDOMETER MALFUNCTIONS, MOST OF THE TIME IT JUST STAYS AT ZERO. IF GM USES A LOT OF THE SAME PARTS TO MAKE MULTIPLE MODELS WHY HAS THE 2005 TRAILBLAZER NOT BEEN RECALLED? I WAS TOLD THE GM ENVOY HAS THE SAME ENGINE AND OTHER INNER WORKINGS AS MY TRAILBLAZER SO WHY WOULDN'T THEIR RECALLS APPLY TO MY VEHICLE ESPECIALLY IF I MAY BE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES. *TR”

“WHEN THE STEERING IS TURNED TOO FAR THE CAR AUTOMATICALLY AND VERY SUDDENLY SHUTS OFF, NO MATTER WHERE WE ARE. SEATBELTS IN THE LAST ROW OF THE VEHICLE DON'T LOCK SO, OUR CAR SEATS JUST SLIDE DUE TO NEVER ENDING SEAT BELT. ENGINE AND OIL LIGHT COME ON WHEN CAR IS STARTED AND WILL STAY ON FOR DAYS AS RESULT OF GAS CAP BEING NOT SCREWED ON PROPERLY. DELAYED TURNING REACTION WITH STEERING WHEEL, HORN GOT STUCK AND WOULD NOT STOP SOUNDING SO IT HAD TO BE DISABLED. *TR”
