| 2007 | FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE | THE FUEL GAUGE LEVEL INDICATOR JUST WENT FROM "FULL" TO "EMPTY", IT JUST WENT THAT FAST. MINUTES BEFORE IT HAD JUST BEEN FILLED AT THE GAS STATION. WHEN STARTING, THE GAUGE RISES THEN FALLS TO EMPTY. ON OCCASIONS THE WARNING MESSAGE, "PLEASE TIGHTEN GAS CAP" COMES ON. NOW MONTHS LATER, SAME PROBLEM; AFTER CONTACTING "GM" HOTLINE, THEY STILL HAVE NOT SHOWN ANY CONCERN. I KEEP TRACK OF MILES DRIVEN SINCE LAST FILL-UP AND GAS USED, SO I KNOW WHEN IT IS TIME TO FILL-UP. I HAVE READ MANY SAME COMPLAINTS, AND I WONDER WHY "GM" HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL. IT IS NOW 08/21/2012 AND PROBLEM IS STILL ONGOING. CAN YOU PLEASE HELP. PLEASE. "GM" HAS ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS SUGGESTED THAT THE WIRE HARNESS ON TOP OF THE GAS TANK NEEDS TO BE REPLACED, TO DO SO, REQUIRES A FIVE (5) HOUR VISIT AND THEY EXPECT THE CUSTOMER TO PAY HALF THE COST. PLEASE HELP. |
| 2002 | SUSPENSION:FRONT | I HAVE A 2002 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER 4WD. THE CLUTCH FAN IS BAD. FROM WHAT THE AUTO PARTS SERVICE CENTER ADVISED ME, ALL CLUTCH FANS ON THE 2002 TRAILBLAZERS SHOULD BE RECALLED. THE VEHICLE RUNS HIGH RPM'S WHEN FIRST STARTING. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARDS THAT THE GOV. SHOULD ADDRESS WITH CHEVY. DON'T WAIT UNTIL SOMEONE LOSES A LIFE, THEN ACT ON THIS COMPLAINT. YOU WOULD THINK AFTER THE FIRESTONE TIRE INCIDENT YOU PEOPLE WOULD WORK ON THE SIDE OF THE CONSUMER, AFTER ALL, WE DO PAY FOR YOUR AGENCY TO OPERATE. WHY IS IT THE CONSUMER ALWAYS HAS TO PAY FOR BIG BUSINESS WHEN THEY ARE THE ONES WHO ARE A FAULT. WHEN BUILDING ANY PRODUCT, IF IT FAILS. THEN THE GOV. SHOULD ENFORCE A RECALL. WHETHER IT BE ONE OR 20 COMPLAINTS. THE CONSUMER HAS THE RIGHT TO BE PROTECTED WHEN PURCHASING ANY PRODUCT. WHEN A COMPLAINT IS MADE. THE YOU THE GOV. AGENCY SHOULD ACT AND MAKE A RECALL. BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. IT" THAT SIMPLE. *TR |
