WHILE TRAVELING AT NIGHT ON A LEVEL TWO-LANE HIGHWAY THAT CARRIES HIGH TRAFFIC RATES, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOST ENGINE POWER, BEGAN TO FEEL AS THOUGH THE BRAKES CAME ON, THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS DIMMED, AND THE TRACTION CONTROL SYMBOL STARTED FLASHING. VEHICLES BEHIND ME QUICKLY BRAKED TO AVOID A REAR COLLISION, AS THEIR HEADLIGHT BEAMS RAPIDLY CHANGED DIRECTION AND DIPPED TOWARDS THE PAVEMENT. THEN ABOUT 6~8 SECONDS LATER THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT REMAINED ON FULL ILLUMINATION, THEN WENT OUT, AND THE ENGINE SPEED PICKED UP. AS I ALMOST WAS IN A SURPRISE REAR-END COLLISION, I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE NEAREST, OPEN CHEVROLET DEALER THE EARLIEST I COULD GET IT DIAGNOSED. IT TURNS OUT THE STEERING SENSOR WAS DEFECTIVE AND HAD TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $392.00. SURPRISE POWER LOSS AND SUBSEQUENT BRAKING MAKING A DANGEROUS SITUATION AT HIGHER HIGHWAY SPEEDS IS WHAT MADE ME GET IT REPAIRED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

WINDOW SWITCH RECALL TAILLIGHT SHORT MELTED WIRES HARNESS ENGINE LIGHT INDICATOR STAYS ON ROAD GRIP TIRES LIGHT COMES ON WILL STAY ON FOR DAYS POWER STEERING IS USING FLUID AND NOW FUEL TANK WILL NOT TAKE MORE THAN 5 GALLONS AT A TIME AND SPRAYS GAS BACK IF TANK IS FULL FUEL LEVEL INDICATOR WANT REGISTER STAY BELOW EMPTY AND WINDSHIELD LEAKS DOWN INTO DASH

THE ISSUE IS WITH THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS. THEY INTERMITTENTLY TURN ON AND OFF, SPRAYING WASHER FLUID, REGARDLESS OF THE SWITCH SETTING. THE WIPERS WILL COME ON AND SPRAY WASHER FLUID WITHIN THE FIRST MINUTE OF STARTING THE VEHICLE, AND WILL TURN THEMSELVES OFF WHEN IN USE, OR GO INTO A CONTINUOUS SPRAY MODE WHEN BEING USED, CAUSING VISIBILITY TO BE NONEXISTENT. WHEN THE FUSE WAS PULLED TO PREVENT FURTHER SCRATCHING TO THE WINDSHIELD FOR A TEMPORARY REPRIEVE, THE WIPERS CONTINUED TO GO, WITH NO CHANGE. THE VEHICLE CURRENTLY HAS LESS THAN 135,000 MILES. THE ISSUE FIRST STARTED THE FIRST WEEK OF NOVEMBER 2015 AND HAS PROGRESSED SINCE THEN. IT BEGAN WITH ONE SWIPE OF THE WIPERS JUST AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED AND HAS TURNED INTO AN ISSUE DURING ALL DRIVING CONDITIONS.

MY 2006 TRAILBLAZER WAS PARKED OUTSIDE NEXT TO MY HOME FOR 2 HOURS. IT SPONTANEOUSLY CAUGHT ON FIRE WHILE I WAS INSIDE ASLEEP. IT ENDED UP BURNING MY WHOLE HOUSE DOWN. WHEN I WOKE UP TO SEE FLAMES COMING FROM THE CAR INTO MY HOUSE, I CALLED 911 AND GOT MYSELF AND MY CHILDREN OUT OF THE HOUSE. MY CAR AND HOUSE WERE A TOTAL LOSS. I RECENTLY HEARD OF RECALL SAYING DON'T PARK YOUR 2006 TRAILBLAZER NEAR YOUR HOUSE...EVEN WHEN OFF IT MIGHT CATCH ON FIRE. I AM WONDERING IF THIS RECALL IS WHAT MADE MY CAR CATCH ON FIRE. THE EXACT CAUSE WAS NOT DETERMINED...IT WAS JUST DETERMINED IT WAS SPONTANEOUS . I WISH I HAD KNOWN OF RECALL IN 2010, AND WE WOULDN'T HAVE GONE THROUGH THIS NIGHTMARE!

TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT AND THE LIGHT BESIDE IT STAY ON 24/7. I HAVE HAD IT AT MY MECHANIC WHO HAS SENT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AS WELL AND HAVE REPLACED ALL PARTS BUT THE COMPUTER TO MY CAR. I CANNOT AFFORD TO REPLACE THE COMPUTER AND NOT KNOW IF THAT IS THE FIX. MY HEAD LIGHTS FLICKER AND SOME DAYS TURN OFF WHICH HAVE BEEN RECALLED BUT WHEN I GIVE MY VIN THE DEALER TELLS ME I HAVE ZERO RECALLS. THEY DO THIS WHEN SITTING STILL, DRIVING SLOW OR EVEN ON THE HIGHWAY. I HAVE CARS THINKING I AM FLASHING THEM SOME TIMES WHEN I AM NOT. IF I ROLL MY WINDOWS UP THEY DIM. I ALSO WAS PULLING OUT OF A PARKING LOT WHEN MY CAR STALLED ON ME. WHEN I COASTED DOWN THE HILL TO STOP, THE CAR STARTED. MY MECHANIC PUT IT ON COMPUTER BUT THE CODE WAS AN "UNEXPLAINED" REASON, BASICALLY NO ONE KNOW WHY OR IF MY CAR WILL DO IT AGAIN. I HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH THIS CAR FROM THE DAY I BOUGHT IT. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO DEALERSHIP OVER THE HEADLIGHTS BUT IT WAS DAYLIGHT AND THEY DID NOT SEE IT SO SAID THEY COULDN'T HELP ME. I AM SO OVER MY CAR, I AM TO THE POINT I WILL NOT OWN ANOTHER GM PRODUCT. I HAVE SEEN 3 RECALLS IN THE NEWS THAT MATCH MY YEAR AND MAKE, BUT MY "VIN" SAYS OTHERWISE. I FEEL LIKE I AM DRIVING A TICKING TIME BOMB. MY COMPUTER LIGHTS HAVE BEEN ON FOR 3 YEARS NOW, HEADLIGHTS HAVE DONE THIS SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR IN 2008, AND IT STALLED BEGINNING OF SPRING 2015. I JUST WANT A SAFE RELIABLE VEHICLE!

REF:14V755000 PER HTE ABOVE RECALL, AS PREVIOUSLY SUBMITTED I HAD REPLACED THE HEADLIGHT BULBS AT LEAST 4 TIMES IN A 1 1/2 YEAR PERIOD. THE LAST TIME THE RIGHT HEADLIGHT DID NOT ILLUMINATE I LEFT IT AS IS AWAITING A FIX. ON OR ABOUT THE FIRST OF THIS MONTH WE CAME OUT OF AN ESTABLISHMENT AFTER DARK AND AS I STARTED TO DRIVE OFF IT BECAME APPARENT THAT NEITHER LOW BEAM LIGHTS WERE LIT. I HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO DRIVE HOME WITH HIGH BEAMS ON, CREATING A SAFETY CONDITION FOR ONCOMING TRAFFIC AS IT PROBABLY BLINDED THEM. I ONCE AGAIN INSTALLED 2 NEW HEADLIGHT BULBS. IT IS APPARENT THAT GM DOES NOT CONSIDER THIS SAFETY PROBLEM AS BEING SERIOUS AS THEY HAVE NOT MADE A FIX FOR IT. PERHAPS YOU SHOULD HIT THEM WITH A MILLION DOLLAR FINE TO GET THEIR ATTENTION TO GET THIS SAFETY ITEM CORRECTED. WE ARE PERHAPS FORTUNATE BECAUSE I WAS THE ONE DRIVING AND NOT THE WIFE ON A DARK COUNTRY ROAD AND IT SUDDENLY BURNT OUT. YOU HAVE NOW BEEN NOTIFIED TWICE, IN THE EVENT SOMEONE BECOMES INJURED BECAUSE OF THIS DEFLECT I OF COURSE WILL USE THESE ADVISEMENTS TO YOU IN COURT PROCEEDINGS.

I FILLED UP MY TANK YESTERDAY. ONE HOUR LATER, STARTED THE CAR AND THE FUEL GUAGE READ ZERO, WITH LOW FUEL INDICATOR ON. NOW IT'S INTERMITTENT, NEVER GOING ABOVE 3/4 FULL. I HAVE PRINTED OUT THE NHTSA'S INVESTIGATIONS NUMBER DP 10-001AND PE 11-014. I HAVE HEARD THAT GM IS WILLING TO FIX THE PROBLEM FOR 1/2 PRICE. WHAT IS 1/2 PRICE? 1/2 OF WHAT? WHAT DO I NEED TO DO NEXT?

WHEN I MAKE LEFT OR RIGHT TURNS THE TRUCK SHUTS OFF ALL THE GAUGES READ AS NORMAL EXCEPT FOR THE RPM'S I LOOSE POWER STEARING AND CANNOT EXELERATE IT DOES NOT HAPPEN AT AN SPACIFIC TIME OR PLACE IT IS JUST RANDOM SO I DO NOT KNOW WHEN IT MAY DO THIS SOME DAYS NOTHING HAPPENS OTHER DAYS IT HAPPENS 2-4 TIMES AND IT IS A BIT SCAREY WHEN YOU ARE MAKING A LEFT TURN ESPECIAL I AM NOT SURE WHAT THIS IS OR WHAT IS CAUSING IT BUT THIS I HAVE HAD THE BATTERY AND THE ALTERNATER CHECKED AND OTHER COMPONENTS CHECKED OUT BUT THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING AND OF COURSE WHILE THE DEALER HAD IT DID NOT DO IT SO I AM NOT SURE BUT THIS IS DEFFENTLEY SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO LIKE I SAY WHEN I MAKE TURNS I LOSE POWER , LOOSE MY STEARING AND THE ABLITY TO ACCELERATE AND ALL GAUGES READ NORMAL EXCEPT THE RPM'S THEY ARE THE ONLY ONE THAT GO DOWN TO ZERO

MY 2006 TRAILBLAZER WINDSHIELD WIPERS COME ON WHEN STARTING MY VEHICLE, AND WON'T TURN OFF! AND WILL SPRAY THE WIPER FLUID OUT AS WELL, UNTIL IT'S COMPLETELY GONE.

LOW BEAMS CUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. HIGH BEAMS FUNCTIONED, BUT LOW BEAMS WOULD NOT.

AS SOON AS I TURN ON MY CAR, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WILL TURN ON AS WELL, EVEN THOUGH THEY AREN'T SWITCHED ON. THEY WILL CONTINUE TO STAY ON FOR THE MAJORITY OF THE DRIVE. I HAVE TRIED TO SWITCH FROM THE ON AND OFF POSITION AND IT WILL SOMETIMES HELP, BUT HAS GOTTEN TO THE POINT WHERE THAT HAS NO AFFECT EITHER. SO, IT CONTINUES TO SCRAPE ACROSS MY WINDSHIELD RUINING IT WITH THE DRY WIPING THAT ITS DOING. I NEED THIS RESOLVED ASAP! I HAD A MECHANIC REPLACE THE MOTOR (THE PART THAT CONTROLS THE WIPERS AND THE TURNING SIGNAL) FOR $300 AND THAT HAD NO AFFECT! I NOTICE THERE IS A RECALL ON EARLIER MODELS BUT NOT ON THE LATER ONES BUT HAVE SEEN SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ON THE LATER MODELS AS WELL. THIS NEEDS TO BE TAKEN CARE OF SOON!!

I STARTED TRUCK AT NIGHT NOTICED NO HEADLIGHTS .I HAD PARKING LIGHTS AND MY BRIGHT LIGHTS WORKED. I MANUALLY TURNED THE LIGHT SWITCH TO OFF AND ON AND STILL DID NOT WORK. I HAD TO DRIVE A MILE IN TOWN WITH MY BRIGHT LIGHTS ON TO GET HOME.BUT THEN THE NEXT DAY THEY WERE WORKING AGAIN. THIS HAPPENED 9 DAY AFTER I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE.I TOOK IT BACK WHERE I GOT IT AND THEY PUT IN A FUSE.I STILL HAVE ISSUES WITH THE LIGHTS FLICKERING AND GOING DIM AND BRIGHT WHILE I AM DRIVING ALSO NOTICED THE VOLT GAUGE MOVES AROUND..I AM SCARED TO DEATH TO DRIVE AT NIGHT AND TO EVEN BE ABLE TO TRAVEL ANY WHERE OUT OF TOWN IF THEY GO OUT WHILE I AM DRIVING. I OR SOME ONE CAN BE KILLED IF THE LIGHTS GO OUT WHILE IM DRIVING.
