Stabilitrak light comes on intermittently for no apparent reason. Have had brake fluid, brake pads, rotors, sensors and tires replaced. Traction control and ABS checked; all is good. No cel code relating to this issue. Traction control off button doesn?t work once light appears. There is no difference in driving when light is on. Still haven?t figured out what causes it. Battery, power cords, and alternator have both had to be replaced do to issues with the voltage outputs. Now to replace fuse box and ECM due to more voltage output issues. Cel has had no indications of an ECM, fuse box, alternator, or battery problem until they were beyond repair (this also happened with other transfer case leak, loss of reverse gear, and front differential leak) . Cel comes and goes by itself at anytime with no difference in drivability or conditions. Each time it reappeared it?s thrown different sensors and/or circuits failing or high/low voltages including o2, maf, tps, evap system, wheel speed, fuel pressure, oil pressure, steering wheel, gas and brake pedal position, air bag impact, just to name a few. My car has recently started going into limp mode at random due to this electrical issue. Only remedy for this problem is disconnecting the wiring harness and allowing the fuse box and ECM to cool down. And finally, my oil filler tube seal broke and oil was spitting out into engine bay. Coincidentally, my pcv valve tube had also broken, and the tube was hanging loose right in front of the oil filler tube. As a result, pcv tubing sucked up a large amount of oil into the air intake; with no check engine light illumination indicating any problems during the time of failure. My air intake system is nearly ruined (not to mention the $$$ I shelled out in oil) and the wear down on parts has been detrimental to the life of the engine. This car is nothing but a cash cow for gm.

I go in my car and start it, and its fine going down the road, but once I cut the car off while I run into the store, and I come back out, start the car, and start going down the road, the traction control light comes on, and "servicestabilitytrak" comes across the little screen, and won't cut off at all until I turn the car back off.

Whether the car is turned on, or off with or without key in the ignition, it has a small speaker or tweeter that steadily stays making a faint buzz. The center console is very loose, and if you press or knock up against the right side or the back side, it becomes louder and/or quieter. Then while in auto (2wd-4wd^or4wdl) and driving, the transmissions feels to not switch geer at the right time, or from drive to reverse and back to drive it jolts forward or back really hard.

I have a 2006 chevy trailblazer with only a little over 80,000 miles on it. I have been having issues with the stabilitrak system. I will get read outs about the stabilitrak needs to be serviced or the stabilitrak has kicked in when it hasn't. The stabilitrak will try to in gauge for no apparent reason when appling the brakes. It happens when I am backing out of my driveway, coming to a stop or just applying the brakes to slow down. It happens on all type of road surfaces. This happens when it is bright and sunny outside, on dry roads, highways, streets, dirt roads and day or night. It does it at fast speeds and very low speeds. It makes a strange noise when this happens however the stabilitrak doesn't fully in gauge. The repair shop looked at it and told me that they think the computer modal is not communicating with the stabilitrak system. This started a few weeks ago. So I'm not sure how this will affect the brakes when driving on the snow and icy roads. I have seen other complaints on the same type of issues.

Steering wheel position sensor failure of this sensor can cause assist problems... I belong to a trailvoy club for trailblazer's and have read that there is several members that have reported problems with this steering wheel position sensor...a quote for repair is around $200 with the sensor cost of another $100, total bill of $300 and when the light stability control comes on it can cause the steering to be eractic, which not only in dangers your life but everyone and every thing in you path!
