The first problem I had with my 2005 trailblazer was right after I purchased it. There was a problem when you tried to pump gas it would keep kicking the pump off. I took it to the dealership from which I had bought it. They worked on it said it was fixed, but it would do it at certain pumps. Then I had a problem with he passenger seat's sidepiece popped off and they fixed that but now the driver's side has done the same along with the lumbar support quit working.then the speedometer went crazy, it was all over the place and made a real bad noise. The dealership quoted off it would be over $400.00 to fix it. Then the gas gauge popped up the "dummy light" as we call it when gas is getting low. The gauge quit registering the amount of gas in the tank. Then during the heat of summer the front fan quit working, the air conditioner worked and the other fans worked. I got a letter about the gas sensor and how I would have to pay half of it. That is a lot of money not counting the collision insurance and taxes and other expenses I have paid. They should be glad to help the working people who have always bought chevrolets. I will say this if they do not uphold some kind of quality on this high end automobile the next car I buy will not be an american because they won't stand by their products. It is just inappropriate that there have been a lot of the same complaints as I have about my car. I called the number on the paper that came out about the gas sensor and spoke with a nice lady named[xxx], she set it up for me to bring my car in for diagnostic check. I should know what all is damaged and in need of repair and how much will come out of my pocket. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

Recently, the gas gauge in my vehicle has stopped working correctly. It no longer accurately reports how much fuel I have. In researching the issue, I have discovered that this is a very common problem with this type of vehicle (2005 chevrolet trailblazer). Although nothing has happened to me personally, I have read of instances where the car ran out of gas while on the highway because the driver assumed that gas gauge was working correctly. This is a potential safety issue. With it occurring so frequently, there are obviously defective parts being used. It seems to occur most often in 2005 - 2006 vehicles based on the gmt360/370 platform (chev. Trailblazer, gmc envoy, etc). If needed, I can provide a link to several sites where people are reporting this problem. Or, a quick search on google.com for "2005 trailblazer gas gauge problems" will provide a list.
