TODAY DRIVING DOWN A HIGHWAY AT 70 MPH IN MY 2005 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER LT. WE HEARD A LOUD CLACKING NOISE. AS I TURN AROUND I SEE THE LARGE PLASTIC PIECE OF THE TAILGATE FLY OFF AND THE 3RD TAILLIGHT JUST DANGLING. IN MY SEARCH TONIGHT I HAVE COME TO THE CONCLUSION I AM NOT THE ONLY TRAILBLAZER OWNER WHO HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM. *TR |

FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER:STORAGE:FUEL GAUGE SYSTEM |
THERE WAS A BURNING SMELL IN THE CAR AND THEN THE HIGH SETTING ON THE AIR FAN SPEED STOPPED WORKING. THEN ABOUT A MONTH LATER THE SECOND TO HIGHEST SPEED STOPPED WORKING ALSO. I OPENED MY GLOVE WHEN MY WIFE WAS DRIVING AND THEN THE HIGHEST SETTING STARTED WORKING AGAIN, THEN STOPPED WORKING A FEW MINUTES LATER. I LOOKED IN THE DASH BEHIND THE GLOVE BOX AND FOUND THAT THERE WAS A CONNECTOR FOR THE FAN MOTOR CONTROLLER WAS HEATING UP AND STARTED MELTING. I CHECKED THE CONNECTION AND INSIDE THE CONNECTOR WAS BURNT AND BLACKENED. I CONTACTED GENERAL MOTORS ABOUT MY 2006 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. THEY SETUP AN APPOINTMENT AT THE NEAREST CHEVROLET DEALER AND HAD IT CHECKED. THEY FOUND THAT THE FAN MOTOR CONNECTOR WAS BAD AND THAT THE FAN MOTOR CONTROLLER WAS BAD ALSO, THEY CONTACTED GENERAL MOTORS AND TOLD THEM IT WASN'T A DEFECT AND IT WAS NOT A SAFETY HAZARD. I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT THE CONNECTOR ALMOST CATCHING FIRE IS NOT A FIRE HAZARD OR A DEFECT. THEY WANTED TO REPLACE THE CONNECTOR AND THE MOTOR CONTROLLER. I DENIED THE SERVICE BECAUSE THEY WANTED TO CHARGE ME $365.00 TO DO SO. WHEN I FOUND THE PARTS ELSEWHERE FOR $75.00 AND IM GOING TO DO THE REPAIRS MYSELF. I HAVE PICTURES OF THE BURNT CONNECTOR AND FAN MOTOR CONTROLLER. I WILL BE REPAIRING THE ISSUE ONCE THE PARTS ARE DELIVERED. I AM ALSO EXPERIENCING THE FUEL LEVEL PROBLEM ALSO , THE FUEL GAUGE SAYS ITS EMPTY WHEN I FILL IT UP. *KB |
