A vehicle was stopped in front of me and I rear ended them. I was going around 44-55 MPH. After I hit the other car from behind I crossed 2 lanes of traffic and went thru a pretty deep ditch. The air bags did not deploy at all. I sustained a concussion., several head lacerations and a fractured lumbar spine.

Came out of work 11:30 pm to find the drivers door window down on a rainy night. As I got close I could smell the elec./plastic fire smoke smell. My seat and floor were soaked from the rain. I could not put the window up and had to drive home wet. I had the dealer where I bought it check it out and was told the door module had melted from fire from a shot and was lucky the car did not burn. I have called chevrolet assistance center about 5 times and was told I have to wait parts are not available.

I purchased a brand new chevrolet trailblazer at the end of 2007. Since then, I have had multiple service issues with the car, most notably a faulty front axle that had to be replaced. In january 2009, my service 4wd light came on and I could not put my car into 4wd. I immediately took my car to the dealership, who could not find a problem and returned my car to me. A week later, I was driving my car in the snow in 4wd, getting ready to enter the highway, when the car stalled and the service 4wd light came on again. I returned to the dealership, who kept my car for 3 days and again could not find the problem. They returned my car to me and said "you probably got snow in your muffler". I drove my car in 4wd periodically for the next 19 months trusting that my car was safe. When the same problem happened again at the end of nov 2010, I took my car to a different dealership who told me I had a bad front axle and 5 bad gears that were binding, and that I could not drive my car in 4wd until this was repaired. I have also had to have an o2 sensor replaced, several body system repairs, and yesterday my service stabilitrack light came on and stayed on until I restarted the car. I have asked chevy to buy back my car, as it is clear I have a poorly manufactured and unsafe vehicle, and they have only offered to cover my body systems parts under warranty. I feel unsafe in my car and I don' t know where to turn for help.
