We are the owner of a 2004 chevy trailblazer. I would like to file 4 major concerns regarding our vehicle. The first I have brought to the attention of the chevy company. Our trailblazer was shutting off due to a bad seal somehow connected when the heat/air is running. The vehicle just shuts off and you lose complete control. We had an outside mechanic fix the problem. The second is the loss of our windshield front windshield wipers. They no longer work. The 3rd is the rear molding broke loose from water collecting and then freezing with no way of preventing this from happening. We lost this piece of molding while driving on the highway and it hit a semi truck. The 4th is a major electrical problem that has not be able to be diagnosed. Each morning when starting the vehicle, the SUV will act like the battery is dead and then start. I have had this vehicle in while under warranty and problem was not found. I am quite concerned with this vehicle. I am not sure if others have had these problems, but I would like to have them notated. We are currently on our 3rd battery since 2004.

I have many electrical issues with my 04 trailblazer from my window lights on the drivers door and the passenger door. I have had my radio replaced because it melted one of my cds. My head lights work when they feel like it same with the rear wiper. It has stalled out in traffic on me. I have also heard that in most 2000 to 2006 trailblazers the reason for the electrical problems is because water is running down the passenger side door into the dash and hitting one of the main wiring harnesses causing it to have many electrical issues. I heard this from someone who has an 06 trailblazer that just had it a replaced for $700.00 to fix and was told that it will just have to be replaced in a few more years because they cant fix the problem.

The windshield wipers were on all the time. Switching them off did nothing. The wipers still ran.

I am in the process of having to replace the head unit for my stereo due to malfunctions, my driver side view mirror due to constant shaking, a seal in the window that was coming out, driver side door panel due to the plastic bowing up. Occasionally the rear windshield wiper does not work, as well as the driver's seatbelt fails to release allowing me to put my seatbelt on. Excess wind noise on the driverside possibly due to the windshield not being sealed properly.
