While on my way to the cancer centers of america located in atlanta, I noticed the oil gauge needle kept moving below the middle, when I returned home took to chevy dealership that changed sensor and gasket kit. Still having problem with vehicle. Chevy dealer stated that, that's what the needle does...I've had the oil changed and still same problem.....I also noticed that when you turn on the 4x4 button it doesn't show the 4x4 emblem on the dash board.....also addressed with dealer they said it doesn't show on dash board...another problem that just happened is that it's stating to service air bag...I own a chevy trail blazer 2004 and have never had these problems not with oil gauges, seat belt sensors nor 4x4 emblems on the dash.....my husband and I bought the vehicle on nov 2014 with 96,000 miles on it the chevy dealer here says that these are normal....I feel that these are not normal, because you don't know if you have oil in the truck, the air bag is faulty and can't tell if your driving on 4x4....please check into these things....I appreciate your attention.
About two years into owning this truck, (purchased brand new from dealer), the dashboard cracked at the corner of the passenger side airbag. There was no incident which caused the dashboard to crack. Nothing hit it, no accident, etc. This is a potential hazard and it seems to be a recurring problem for many chevrolet owners. I took it in to the dealer and they said it wasn't covered by any warranty. How is it okay for gm to know about a defect with many of their vehicles and not have to assume responsibility for fixing it??
