| 2003 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT PANEL | 2003 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER SPEEDOMETER STUCK...RECEIVED RECALL LETTER FOR 2004 SILVERADO....WHY NOT 2003 TRAILBLAZER? THERE HAVE BEEN TONS OF PROBLEMS FROM RESEARCHING ON THE NET. *TR |
| 2004 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | IN 2008, ONE DAY I STARTED MY VEHICLE AND NOTICED THE OIL GAUGE INDICATOR DID NOT REGISTER. THAT DAY I CONTINUED DRIVING WITHOUT THE GAUGE OPERATING. LATER THAT WEEK I TOOK IT A MECHANIC, WHO INSTRUCTED ME TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER. HE SUSPECTED THAT IT WAS THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. I DID NOT TAKE IT TO THE DEALER, BECAUSE IT WAS NOT MAJOR. HOWEVER, IN LATER MONTHS THE TACHOMETER FAILED. IN 2010 I DID SOME RESEARCH ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL ON THE CHEVY TRAILBLAZER AND FOUND MANY ACCOUNTS OF FAILURE BY OTHERS. I ALSO WANT TO MENTION THAT THE GAS GAUGE HAS FAILED ON OCCASION. CURRENTLY, MY TACHOMETER AND OIL GAUGE DOES NOT WORK. I ALONG WITH OTHER DRIVERS WANT CHEVROLET TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE FAILURE OF THEIR PRODUCT, WHICH THEY KNOW DOES NOT OPERATE AS IT SHOULD. |
