 Gas gauge fluctuates, filled gas tank, moments later it went down to empty (warning light and sound went off). this has happened for the past week. prior to this the check engine would sporadically go off and on, probably an early indicator that there was a problem with the fuel gauge.

 Tl - the contact owns a 2006 chevrolet trailblazer. the contact stated that the fuel gauge was defective and as a result, she was unable to tell the level of fuel in the vehicle. the vehicle was taken to the dealer who diagnosed that the fuel sensor and fuel pump needed to be replaced. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure who offered to pay for half of the repair costs. the vehicle was not repaired. the failure mileage was 90,000 and the current mileage was 108,000. kmj

 Fuel gauge suddenly became inaccurate. reads empty and chimes empty even when full. since it happens intermittently, it has caused me to run out of gas more than once in past three years. received blanket offer from manufacturer to cover half of the expense, so they know it is an issue, but should be a total recall for safety.

 This vehicle had the fuel level sensor fail at 98,000 miles at this time i went in to get a replacement part only to find that one was not available so with no other option we drove it without a fuel level guage then gm sent out a special option coverage letter stating that they would cover 50% of the parts and labor of the repair so i again looked into a replacement part and found that one was now available so i had the repair done. only to find out that now gm is refusing to cover the repair because now the vehicle has 142000 miles on it after spending months of trying to get them to stand behind their product i had the bbb look into the issue and got no where so i had the states attorney general look into it and got no where now it is time for everyone to say enough and force gm to recall all 865,000 vehicles and do the right thing already. i really don't care if this will bankrupt their company that is the risk that they take when they put defective parts into the market and then don't do the right thing and replace them at their own cost not pass the cost onto their customers as they are trying to do.

 Fuel gage goes back and forth from empty to over half a tank to a 1/4 tank. this will be the third time we will have to take it in for the fuel sensor. it is costly and i feel gm should pay the full repair bill or replace the vehicle. the trailblazer has also turned off while driving for no apparent reason and no lights come on. this has happened about three time which is very dangerous when you are out on the road. any help we can get to repair would help being that this has proved to be very costly.

 After taking my vehicle in for yearly inspection my mechanic informed me that the alternator bearings are bad and that it needs immediate repair. i was informed that this is serious because the vehicle may give me problems at any time without warning. this is extremly unsettling to me because i have to have a vehicle i can depend on to drive my husband to an out of town hospital at any given moment, and drive on an extremly busy highway.(the schuykill expressway) my mechanic stated that this is very unusual becuse the vehicle had less than 30,000 miles and this doesn't usually till at least 100,000 miles. another problem is the gas gauge has not worked for two years, again this is unsettling because of driving out of town at any time of day or night on a busy highway. general motors said they would pay half of the repair but why must i pay anything when it is apparent that the part they used was faulty.

 I just purchased a 2006 chevrolet trailblazer approximately a month ago. i have noticed that my fuel guage tends to go balistic when it wants and where it wants. it's like my truck can not decide if there is gas in the tank or not. i find this to be a major safety hazard. all i can find online is gm is offering to pay half on selected models as long as they meet requirements. ok the governement bailed gm out, how come they can't be forced to correct the problem that their shoddy parts created?!?!? from what i've found, this is a very wide range problem. considering i just purchased this vehicle, i don't have the money to even pay half for the repair.....so what, i'm just stuck like chuck? at least ford fixes their screw ups!

 Fuel gauge started to fluctuate in october 2011. i tried all kinds of fuel treatments by recommendation of my mechanic, but nothing seemed to work. now, march 2012, it does not work at all. i'm afraid some day i will run out of gas on the highway which concerns me for my safety and my passengers safety.
03/07/2012
 As many of the other complaints my 2006 trailblazer is having a fuel tank sending unit problem, the fuel gauge will read empty then shoot up to half full, i was told that the repair will cost approx 600. to 700.00 which i can't afford . i don't believe it's time to force gm to step up to the plate and issue a recall seeing that so many others are having the same problem.

 After filling up my gas tank, we headed down the road. a dinging started so i looked down to see that my gas gauge was reading e. after researching this vehicle i found out that if i set my trip to not go over 200 miles before filling the gas tank, due to the gauge always reads e. after a while my check engine light came on. i went to auto zone and had them hook it up to find out that it was the sending unit that was reading bad. we have e-check in our state. my vehicle failed because my check engine light was on. i now have to spend at least 300.00 to get this fixed so that my vehicle will pass e-check so that i can get the tags that i need to drive the vehicle. this has been a big issue and dissapointment for us.

 As many of the other complaints my 2006 trailblazer is having a fuel tank sending unit problem, the fuel gauge will read empty then shoot up to half full, i was told that the repair will cost approx 600. to 700.00 which i can't afford . i don't believe it's time to force gm to step up to the plate and issue a recall seeing that so many others are having the same problem.

 I have several times now been driving with 1/4 tank of gas and run out of fuel. now today i fill the tank and the gas guage reads empty with the light on. i just put in 22 gallons so i know it is not empty. i have heard of this problem many times online and there needs to be a recall, this occurs through no fault of owner.

 Tl* the contact owns a 2006 chevrolet trailblazer. the contact stated that after refueling, the fuel gauge provided an erroneous empty reading. the vehicle was taken to the dealer and the manufacturer was contacted. the vehicle was not repaired. the failure mileage was 60,000 and the current mileage was 62,500.

 After refueling vehicle, gas gauge goes to e, with low fuel warning light/buzzer going off. after travelling 30-40 miles, gas gauge goes to normal. afterwards, gauge is erratic, and you have no idea how much fuel you really have left, without knowing your fuel mileage and how many miles you have driven on a tank of gas so far. now gauge will go e, even with 1/4 tank of gas remaining.

 Last night on 01/17/12 i filled my truck with gas and when i restarted the vehicle it started dinging at me and the gas gauge was stuck on empty. this morning i started the truck and drove to work and the fuel gauge kept moving and reading differnt amounts. i placed a call to gm and they are fully aware of the problem but say it's not a safety concern so no recall was issued and that i would have to pay for half of the repair that could only be done thru an authorized dealer. something is seriously wrong, this is a huge safety concern for me not to know if i have fuel and i have to pay gm more money when they are fully aware that they used faulty equipment.

 The fuel gauge was giving false reading saying empty when it was not or full when it was empty and sometimes in between. this cause the engine to stall when driving on a public road making it very hard to pull over and stop because the power steering and power brakes quit working. i have searched on this issue and it is a huge problem with trailblazers.

 Fuel usually reads empty. even after fill up. sometimes wanders from 1/4 to 1/2 then drops again. engine light comes on after fueling up, will go out after an hr of driving .. give or take. knowing that this many people all are having the same issues, gm should stand behind their product, step up and look after it!!!! running out of gas is not only dangerous...but does not make for happy customers or repeat business.

 Driving down the road at 65 mph fuel gauge drops from 3/8 full to zero. other gauges such as oil pressure, coolant temperatures also drops to zero. also several warning lights such as check engine and anti lock break turn on. i stopped the car shut off the engine and it would not start again. after adding 2 gallons of gas it started again but when i took it to gas station i could only add about 11 gallons into a 24 gallon tank. so i believe the reading at 3/8 full was correct before it went to zero. the same situation occurred again when we had 3/4 tank full, this time our family was stranded out of town.

 I was running low of fuel so i stopped at a gas station to refill. after completely filling the tank and starting the vehicle, the fuel gauge needle was on empty and the low fuel level light was lit. since then, the fuel gauge fluctuates and does not display the actual fuel level. i have been relying on the trip odometer to estimate my fuel usage so that i do not run out of gas. about a month prior to this issue affecting me, i had received a letter from general motors describing this issue a offering to cover 50% of the repair cost. obviously, this issue is affecting a great number of vehicles and the manufacturer should step up and fix their problem.

 Four days ago, while driving i noticed the fuel gage light was on and the needle was on empty. there was 3/4 tank of gas in the vehicle. then the needle proceeded to slowly rise to half full, and go down and up sporadically. since then it continues to fluctuate up and down. even after filling the gas tank a day ago, the needle still sporadically fluctuates between empty and full. the vehicle has 49000 miles on it.

 About 4-5 months ago my fuel sensor started saying that it was empty when i just filled and the engine light would come. after about 50 miles or so the lights would go off and seem like normal for a day or two and then the gas gauge would go back and forth. about a month ago my gas gauge quit working completely! also the neck of the gas pump needs to be replaced and that is another $300.00!! i received what i thought was a recall notice but it is actually a limited warranty stating that they would pay for 50% to get this part fixed. obviously gm is aware that this part is faulty and yet we are being forced to pay 50%!!!! they should be covering 100% of it.
10/07/201156000
 I filled my gas tank. when i restared the car the gas gauge no longer works. it has been this way for two weeks. i have been setting a trip mileage gauge to insure that i do not run out of gas. i received a notice a while back from chevrolet stating that this is a problem. they do not accept responsibility in the form of a recall, but will discount the repairs. i threw way the notice as i did not have any problems. i have yet to contact my chevrolet dealer, as i am considering my options.

 The fuel gauge in my 2006 trailblazer stopped working. even after filling up the gas tank, it reads that it's on empty, the low fuel light comes on and there is a low fuel level message. this has been going on for several months; it started out with the needle bouncing around the gauge but now it just sits on empty. i am taking it in for repair because i don't feel safe not knowing how much gas i truly ever have.
09/12/201159445
 The fuel gauge stopped registering the correct level. it constantly shows empty and then goes erratically from empty to full. the check engine light also is on and will not go out. chevy has mailed me a letter stating they will cover 50% of the cost of repair even though they now have almost 1 million vehicles with the same issue. and they wonder why americans purchase foreign (dependable) cars! gm needs to man up and and pay for the entire repair!!!!!

08/12/2011114000
 When refueling for gas, my gauge registered empy after the tank was completely full. it continued to fluctuate registering empty, half full, etc. this has caused the check engine light to come on every time the truck is refueled. the light can be turned off when you open and reclose the gas lid. this has to be done every time the truck is refueled in order to turn the light off. as a result you never know if there is something really wrong with the engine. i am unable to tell truly how much gas in the vehicle and i have to refuel every two to three days because of the distance i travel to and from work/ doctor's appt. thank you

 In february of this year, the fuel gauge suddenly became erratic. when fuel was near empty, it would read full or half full. the engine repair light would go on and off inconsistently during the same time. i thought it might be the quality of gasoline, but trying different brands did not help. within a few months, no matter how much fuel was in my tank, the gauge would read e for empty, with the needle never moving from e. it is a safety hazard because i have to reset my tripometer when filling up on a new tank of gas, so i know about 250 miles, i need to fill up again. if i don't do this, i could run out of gas, cause a crash, or a fatal accident since my gauge always reads empty. i have read many blog and complaints about the fuel gauge on the 2006 trailblazer. i understand the repair and parts will be about $800.00. in august 2011, i received a letter from gm indicating that there may be a problem with my fuel sensor and that they would be willing to pay half the cost for repair, but i believe that gm should be responsible for replacing the faulty sensor at no charge to the owner.

 In february of this year, the fuel gauge suddenly became erratic. when fuel was near empty, it would read full or half full. the engine repair light would go on and off inconsistently during the same time. i thought it might be the quality of gasoline, but trying different brands did not help. within a few months, no matter how much fuel was in my tank, the gauge would read e for empty, with the needle never moving from e. it is a safety hazard because i have to reset my tripometer when filling up on a new tank of gas, so i know about 250 miles, i need to fill up again. if i don't do this, i could run out of gas, cause a crash, or a fatal accident since my gauge always reads empty. i have read many blog and complaints about the fuel gauge on the 2006 trailblazer. i understand the repair and parts will be about $800.00. in august 2011, i received a letter from gm indicating that there may be a problem with my fuel sensor and that they would be willing to pay half the cost for repair, but i believe that gm should be responsible for replacing the faulty sensor at no charge to the owner.

 Fuel gauge is on empty all of the time, even after putting fuel in tank.

 Fuel gauge stopped working. shows empty always, low fuel light stays on, and low fuel bell rings at random. chevy is aware of the issue, as i just received a letter where they offered to pay for half the repair. i feel they should pay for all of it, since it is their faulty design causing the issue. and they are limiting repairs to up to 120k miles. although my vehicle qualifies, i feel they should fix it regardless of mileage at 100 percent!

 Actually the issue just started today and i got the letter from gm stating they installed a faulty fuel level sensor and are offering to pay 50% if we have it fixed at a chevy dealership. i looked on the internet and it sounds like a very common problem for trailblazer owners. sounds like chevy is just trying to do damage control with there 50% offer. i think its making things worse because they should issue a recall on this since they are admitting to the faulty sensor. what needs to happen for this to become a recall? thanks

 The fuel level sensor stopped working, thus leaving no way to tell how much fuel is in my vehicle. this should not happen on a vehicle after only 60,000 miles. i consider it a serious safety hazard, and am fearful that it could lead to a stall on a busy freeway. to avoid that situation, and the uneccessary added stress, i am constantly making stops at a gas station.

 My 2006 chevy trailblazer has had inaccurate fuel gauge readings since 8/10. for the previous 10 months it has read empty on the gauge and gives an audible warning. we have run out of gas 3 times. once in traffic. dealership wants over $800.00 to fix it. we had decided to diligently fill the car and check the tripometer regularly. we tried to register it and to no avail, won't pass. i have read numerous posts on line with the same problem. i am 45 years old and have owned 15 cars. not 1 has had this problem and all were older vehicles. additionally, 4 of the previous ones had been chevys. their seems to be a problem with several years of these vehicles. please conduct a recall asap.

 Fuel sensor does not work. chev is aware of this problem and issued a deal to pay for half the cost only if the car has under 120,000 miles or is less than 10 years old. we are over the mileage limit, but this problem caused our car to run out of gas on a curvy, mountain road with large coal trucks speeding by. we ran out in a place where we could not pull far enough off the side of the road and were almost hit by several passing vehicles. we couldn't start the vehicle and had to drift it backwards downhill to a safer place. very dangerous!!!

 Everytime i fill up with fuel my fuel gauge reads empty, my gas light and check engine light come on. once i drive about 50 miles and restart a time or two everything goes back to normal. it has been happening for a few months. from reading on trailvoy.com it appears to be very common problem.

 Chevrolet trailblazer 2006- gas gage- i filled up my car with gasoline two nights ago (8/30/11) and found as i went to leave for work this morning that my gas gage read i was on empty. after refilling 3 more gallons (until it was full) i found to my surprise that the gage still read empty. i have read all over this website and others that this is a huge problem. the new york times released an article stating that the national highway traffic safety administration had revealed general motors was under investigation on april 29th 2011 with the following statement

 When driving, noticed that the fuel gage would be movingtoward the empty position.when i stop to refuel( gage read1/2 tank) ended up putting 20 gallons in it.went to dealership, they said fuel gage sensor was bad. i had it replaced.the vehicle had 52,000 miles on it.

 At 61000 miles, vehicle's fuel level gauge began behaving erratically. upon filling tank the gauge would read empty. after a few days indicator would go up to 3/4 full then would drop to empty the next day. vehicle ran out of gas unexpectedly on interstate during rush hour where i had to coast across 3 busy lanes to the shoulder. had vehicle taken to dealer for diagnosis which returned fuel sender faulty. replacement estimate over $400! i declined as i am a retired senior citizen on a fixed income. will attempt to use odometer to guess fuel level.

 For the past several months, my gas gauge has registered empty regardless of how much gas was in the tank. also, the check engine light periodically comes on in the dashboard message center. i cannot tell if this is related to the fuel gauge malfunction or if there is another problem that needs attention. this has resulted in a great deal of inconvenience, anxiety, and big safety concerns. my daughter was driving my car one week while hers was being repaired. she ran out of gas and was stranded until another family member could leave work to come help her. when i contacted the dealer from whom i purchased the vehicle, i was told the gas tank would need to be removed to repair the dysfunctional sensor (at a cost of $500 to $600). i can see that this has been a recurring problem in several model years of this same vehicle and general motors has not corrected the problem. the failure of the manufacturer to correct the defect despite multiple complaints and safety concerns is unacceptable. i trust the u.s. dept. of transportation will act to order gm to recall affected vehicles for appropriate repairs.

 Fuel gauge stopped reading accurately. i started monitoring my fuel by mileage because i could not afford the $1000 replacement cost. i stopped at a stop sign, tried to accelerate again, and the car died in the middle of the intersection. i was almost hit by multiple cars and i blocked traffic in all directions.

 2006 chevy trailblazer fuel gauge does not accurately show correct level. when fuel tank is filled it shows empty, then constantly shows different levels or empty. the only way to know about how much fuel is in the tank is by tracking mileage and that is not always accurate. this can be dangerous because you never know how much fuel you have and could potentially run out of fuel in remote or dangerous areas.

 I have read thousand's of complaints about this online. i have a 2006 chevy trailblazer that needs an immediate recall to get this situation fixed. many 05-08 trailblazers have a faulty fuel indicator gauge that gives false readings on how much fuel is in the vehicle. on my specific 2006 chev trailblazer sits on empty after i completely fill the tank. it also moves around from empty, half full, almost full, then down to empty again while driving. between my spouse and myself we have ran out of gas 4 times so far, once while on the freeway. this is a public safety hazard.

 Fuel gauge in 2006 chevy trailblazer went out while driving home from work on highway. was stranded on highway until help arrived with fuel to refill vehicle. now fuel gauge in trailblazer shows empty at all times even after a fill up. nothing has been done to correct the failure due to car just being out of warranty and high price of fix. currently have to guess on fuel levels by keeping track of mileage.

 I have a 2006 chevrolet trailblazer ls. the gas gauge stopped working over a year ago. after checking with the chevrolet dealer, this seems to be a common, well known problem. gm needs to recall these vehicles and fix this problem.

 Gas gauge on chevy trailblazer is very inaccurate. it stops working each time you fill up with gas. this can be fixed but will cost $600. this needs to be a recall.

 Tl-the contact owns a 2006 chevrolet trailblazer. the contact stated the fuel gasoline sensor has failed. the gauge would show the vehicle has fuel when it is empty and this causes the vehicle to stall. there are no warning lights illuminating. the vehicle was taken to the dealer who stated the fuel gauge sensor needed to be replaced. the manufacturer was not contacted. the failure mileage was 95,000.mw

 When i would file up my 2006 trail blazer with gasoline, the gauge would not work properly. never knew for sure how much gas i had. now fuel gage does not work at all an d periodically check engine light comes on. have had it tested and it comes up as issues with fuel gage.

 The fuel gauge in my 2006 chevy trailblazer has been acting erratically. within a few miles of filling up the gas tank the low fuel light comes on. sometimes it will start working again and sometimes it wont. the service station scanned the check engine codes and it showed a bad fuel level sensor.

 Have a 2006 chevy trailblazer that only has 36,000 miles and the fuel gauge is not working properly. if i fill it up, it will show empty and the empty alert will start sounding while the light comes on. eventually it will start working after about 80 or so miles. then when the tank gets to about 1/4 it starts acting up again. i have seen many complaints, in fact hundreds if not thousands, of people having the same issue online.

 1.fuel gauge on our 2006 chevrolet trailblazer ls sport with 6 cyl. engine became erratic going up and down without relation of how much gas was in the gas tank. this started when vehicle mileage was below 40,ooo miles. 2. now the fuel gauge always reads empty, and we have to go by trip mileage to determine when to fuel up. once june 18, 2011) when we hadn;t filled the tank fully, the distance on it was misjudged and ran out of fuel on a main thoroughfare during heavy traffic. thankfully an accident didn't happen. 3. we had checked the internet about this problem and found it wasn't rare, but quite prevalent on our vehicle and similar ones, due to defetive fuel sending units having contacts corrode. we put in a bottle of gm fuel treatment, with no change. the expense to replace the combined sensor/fuel pump unit that is located in the gas tank isn't worth spending as the replacement part is identical to the original and the problem will happen again. if the fuel runs out in an intersection or rush hour traffic a crash could result that could cause injury or death..

 The gas gauge reads empty when gas is present. continues to beep indicating the low fuel. when you first turn engine on it will register an amount of gas then fall to trigger the low fuel light. you are never sure how much gas is in the fuel tank.

 At around 50,000 mi on odometer,while i was driving in winter weather on a highway my gas guage suddenly dropped to empty and the chime went off and the car acted like it was going to stall on what is normally a busy highway.i had filled up my tank before i'd left for my trip so i knew that i couldn't be out of gas.. by the time i got to my destination the gauge went back to full, but on the return home again the gauge continued to act up. a mechanic friend told me it was probably the float in the tank and to use the trip odometer. after a few more trips the gauge was acting normal again, but when i filled up it started the same thing. it is now stuck on empty and my engine light remains on and i've had a few stalls due to this. i never know how much gas i really have and if my car stalls or runs out of gas i am in danger of having or causing an accident.

 Fuel guage malfunction 2006 chevy trailblazer the guage is very misleading causing near misses when you run out of fuel and not to leave out steering and braking problems when the engine stops this only effects certian models and should be recalled by g.m. they are trying to blame it on bad fuel i'm not buying the reason this is happening, if it were to be the fuel then more people would have the same issue.

01/05/201153000
 The problem originated around the 50000 miles on the odometer. the fuel gauge would bounce back between full and empty, then it stopped working all together. on several occasions i ran out of gas, fortunately i was in a safe area, but i can only imagine if i had been on the freeway or in the middle of a busy intersection. i have researched the problem on line and this is a common problem with this particular model.

 When i did a routine fill up on my vehicle and upon restarting the car after completion, the fuel gauge showed empty and the low fuel light came on. i turned the vehicle off and then turned it back on and it still showed low fuel. as i was driving the vehicle home, i noticed the check engine light came on. after driving the vehicle for about 20 miles or so, the fuel gauge showed correctly and the check engine light went off. however, upon the next fill up, it did the same thing. now, it is at the point that it doesn't register the gas in the vehicle at all. one minute it shows empty, the next it shows correctly, and then it slowly goes back to empty. i have to use the trip gauge to know how much gas i have in my vehicle at all times. the check engine light comes on every time the fuel gauge shows empty. lately, over the last few days, the car is starting to hesitate as if it was going to stall on me upon take off. i am getting worried that this vehicle is going to stall on me as i am driving and cause an accident.

 Although i had 1/4 tank of gas, i decided to fill my tank. when i started my car, the gas gauge showed that the tank was empty and the chime indicating that the tank is empty went off. i knew that the tank was not empty since i still had a 1/4 of tank before filling up. after driving the car a few days, the gauge eventually showed the correct amount. now every time i fill the tank, the gauge shows empty and the chime goes off. i have to check the mileage constantly so i won't run out of gas. now after a few days, the gauge will at one time show full and then a few minutes later show 1/4. the gauge is all over the place. when i notice that the mileage is getting close to what a full tank would take me, i have to make sure that i fill the tank completely so that i don't run the chance of running out gas.

 Upon restart after filling fuel tank, fuel gauge drops to empty, and low fuel level warning indicator and audible warning are triggered. occasionally while driving in this condition, cel will be activated, which when read shows fuel level sensor failure. gauge will gradually float towards full, but will randomly go back to empty, reactivating the warning light and audible alarm. once a significant amount of fuel has been consumed, the needle will begin acting as if it is working, although it is not entirely accurate, however the light and alarm will no reactivate until the next fill up. this occurs at every fill up. due to the restrictive costs involved, this has not yet been corrected. symptoms first noted late fall of 2010.

 We were midway through a 2 hour trip and stopped to fill the gas tank. upon filling it the engine light came on and stayed on, the full gas gauge suddenly dipped to empty, then climbed back to 1/2 tank, then fell back to empty and the yellow low fuel light came on. the engine light and fuel light stayed on for the remainder of the trip and the entire trip back home. since that instance the gauge has stopped registering fuel at all. once in a while, when starting the car after it has sit for a long period of time it will register fuel and then drop to empty again. i am constantly watching the gauge and trying to keep track of mileage. recently i was in the middle of a 3 lane interstate in paused traffic when the engine light came on and stayed on. this made me very nervous and i constantly watched the dash lights for fear the vehicle would stall. this is obviously a faulty part that needs to be addressed. i love the trailblazer but no longer have complete confidence in driving it. i am uncomfortable driving far from home especially with my children in the vehicle. my vehicle is low mileage for 5 year old vehicle and has been very well kept. i don't feel like i should be having this serious of an issue with it. i have always driven a gm vehicle and used to work for a gm dealer. we currently own 3 gm products but if this isn't addressed, we will think long and hard about out next purchase before we buy gm again. it shouldn't take a tragic accident or a loss of life for the company to see this is a recall issue.

 Tl* the contact owns a 2006 chevrolet trailblazer. the contac was refueling the vehicle when the fuel gauge reading began to fluctuate between empty and full. the low level fuel warning was also illuminated. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where the contact was advised that the fuel system needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. there was an investigation open under nhtsa action number: dp10001 (fuel system, other:storage:fuel gauge system) that could have been be related to the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 100,000.

 I am filing a complaint about my 2006 chevy trailblazer 4 x 4. after filling the fuel tank up, i returned to the car and as soon as i started the car back up, the gas gauge showed empty and the low fuel light was on. i knew this was not true as i had just filled the fuel tank. the fuel gauge will sometimes show full when the vehicle is in park but then drops off to empty or anywhere in between as i travel. i had talked to my local gmc dealer and they said there is a know problem with the fuel sending unit in the fuel tat send the tank level information to gauge on the instrument panel. the delaer indicated a investigation has start but no recall has been issued yet. i now have to rely on the trip odometer to gauge how far i can travel on a tank of fuel. everytime i need fuel, i fill up all the way so a have good base line of my avaiable mileage. this is really annoying issue. my concern is if the problem occurs with the fuel pump in the tank. if the fuel pump fails, i could be stranded some where or have a loss of power while operating the vehicle. this could be a huge safety issue that could cause a accident if the fuel pump fails.

 Fuel gage not working when car is full of gas- until recently it worked well. a few fill-ups ago, the gauge would go up and up, but when completely full it went back to empty and lighted the check engine light. according to internet there are several thousand cases with same problem and same model year, nhtsa has almost 700 cases for this problem. this is dangerous as i can run out of gas if i loose count of the miles per tank. hopefully if it happens it wont be in an intersection.

 Gas tank was on empty, went to gas station to fill up, gas gauge read full when i pulled away, suddenly dipped to empty. it would then periodically switch between empty and full. same thing happens every time i fill it up [about 3 more times now].

 Fuel gauge failing to register correct amount of fuel. took to local mechanic and they said the fuel sensor has failed and need to replace entire fuel pump system. quoted repair cost of $900 (including parts and labor)

 In may 2010, my 2006 chevrolet trailblazer began having problems with the fuel guage. the check engine light kept coming on and off. when i took it to a mechanic, he said it would be about $800-$1,000 to fix. of course this is an extreme expense considering that i am a teacher and clearly do not make enough money to be able to pay for such a repair. i was told if i keep it on the trip and just get gas before 275 miles, i should be ok. the check engine light continued to come on and off...the fuel gauge aways reads empty. now, a year later i am still battling this, but now the check engine light stays on all of the time! i'm reading online and seeing that many other people are also having this same problem with their 2006 chevrolet trailblazer. why hasn't gm recalled this so that people will actually feel safe when they are driving their 2006 chevrolet trailblazer. this is very serious. from what i am reading, everyone has the problem when their warranty is expired. no one is buying ht extended warranty because until then, there are not any real problems with the 2006 trailblazer. when will gm recall this and fix it for their customers?

 Chev trailblazer - gas guage inaccurate that caused vehicle to stall on the highway. it said i had more gas than i actually had. also, the gas guage was overall not accurate. it was one level and then a few minutes it was much different. i eventually had to have the sensor replaced at the chev dealership.

 Fuel gauge began reading inaccurately for a while. at one time, the gauge showed a quarter tank, but then my vehicle shut down while i was driving on redwood hwy in grants pass, or due to being out of gas. since then, the gauge has completely stopped working. sometimes, the gauge will show up to a half tank, but the needle quickly falls back to empty. this is a chronic problem. two mechanics have told me that the sending unit very commonly fails on trailblazers and that he would need to drop the tank to replace it.

 When i filled my car up it would suddenly show it was empty & a check engine icon showed up & yellow low on gas warning light started dinging last fall 2010. when i drove approx 25 to 30 miles it would register gas normally & engine light would go away. i fill up every 2- 3 weeks normally. then this past february it went haywire & when i fill up it goes to the empty side, engine icon shows up & low on gas light dings & it never registers correctly at all, the gas hand is all over and i have been having to use the mileage gauge to even know how much i might have. it low gas warning will star dinging & i am driving down the road or interstate for no reason & startle me. it has caused me to suddenly jerk the steering wheel because i am startled & that is dangerous in itself. our family has been owned gm cars from the mid 1990's on and this has caused a very unsafe feeling for me. i have children & grandchildren with me and i feel very unsafe for the 1st time in this vehicle i am so nervous just driving to work & back & my eyes are constantly monitoring the panel when i need to keep focused on my drive. i am so concerned that since the gas gages are so wrong what would just keep it from sensing there is no gas and suddenly stop! i would hate for it to take a death to push this problem to be a recall. i am also a consumers report panelist and this will be on their report this year for sure. i have dealt with the noise issues as you drive & small things that happen as time goes on, but this is definitely an issue for recall. i need a safe vehicle and to trade is not the answer yet as i would not be honest in something else buying this car and maybe losing their life please i beg listen to the notices you have received concerning this, these are real as i have sensed myself in their concerns & complaints.

 When i filled my car up it would suddenly show it was empty & a check engine icon showed up & yellow low on gas warning light started dinging last fall 2010. when i drove approx 25 to 30 miles it would register gas normally & engine light would go away. i fill up every 2- 3 weeks normally. then this past february it went haywire & when i fill up it goes to the empty side, engine icon shows up & low on gas light dings & it never registers correctly at all, the gas hand is all over and i have been having to use the mileage gauge to even know how much i might have. it low gas warning will star dinging & i am driving down the road or interstate for no reason & startle me. it has caused me to suddenly jerk the steering wheel because i am startled & that is dangerous in itself. our family has been owned gm cars from the mid 1990's on and this has caused a very unsafe feeling for me. i have children & grandchildren with me and i feel very unsafe for the 1st time in this vehicle i am so nervous just driving to work & back & my eyes are constantly monitoring the panel when i need to keep focused on my drive. i am so concerned that since the gas gages are so wrong what would just keep it from sensing there is no gas and suddenly stop! i would hate for it to take a death to push this problem to be a recall. i am also a consumers report panelist and this will be on their report this year for sure. i have dealt with the noise issues as you drive & small things that happen as time goes on, but this is definitely an issue for recall. i need a safe vehicle and to trade is not the answer yet as i would not be honest in something else buying this car and maybe losing their life please i beg listen to the notices you have received concerning this, these are real as i have sensed myself in their concerns & complaints.

 The fuel guage recently stopped working after filling the tank with gas. it reads empty (and the low fuel amber light illuminates and the warning bell chimes). it then will go between 1/4 tank to empy to full to empty (back and forth) even though the tank is completely full. this vehicle suffered the same problem when it was under warranty (it had less than 3 years 36,000 miles). at that time gm replaced the fuel sensor sending unit at no charge to me since the vehicle was under warranty. we are not suffering the same problem. i would have to surmise that there must be a defect since it can not possibly be normal to replace a fuel guage sensor twice on a vehicle that is just now five years old with 61,000 miles on it. i fear for my family's safety since an accident could result should our trailblazer run out of gas...stall...and subsequently cause an accident.

 Fuel gauge goes to empty after refueling. it will remain there for awhile then gradually move up to full, then fall to mid level, and then empty again. eventually it will go to full and stay until the next fill up however, it is getting progressively longer for that to happen.

 Faulty fuel gauge / fuel sending unit / fuel reading / fuel pump. i have had to have my fuel pump replaced three times now due to faulty fuel sending units. this is a major problem because my truck now shows that i am always on empty and can be a huge hazard and life endangerment. i dont want to be going down a highway at 70 mph and have my truck stall. i have replaced this unit twice already and i am now with a faulty one again. all original manufacturer equipment. no after market replacements. it seems that new manufacturer units will work for about 10,000 - 30,000 miles and then fail. this is an issue that i have seen reported hundreds of times by gm owners of trailblazers and similar makes. my problem is with a 2006 chevy trailblazer v6 ls model with 126,000 miles.

 Tl*the contact owns a 2006 chevrolet trailblazer. the contact stated that after adding gasoline to the fuel tank the fuel gauge would misread and display that there was no fuel in the vehicle. the vehicle was inspected by a dealer who advised him that the fuel level sensor needed to be replaced. the vehicle was repaired. the failure mileage was approximately 35,000.

 My 2006 chevy trailblazer's fuel gauge gives false fuel levels. when i fill it up the needle moves up a little and goes back to empty and the low fuel light comes on. i brought this vehicle when it was brand new. i've had so many problems with this vehicle from the dash indicators, radio, and now the fuel gauge. this is really dangerous because i can run out of gas while traveling and may have an accident. i've seen on the internet where a other trailblazer owners are having the same problems with their fuel sensors. feel that this part must have been defective from the factory and should be replaced by gm.

 I have a faulty fuel level sender. it started as reading empty when i first fill up. and then after the fuel level would go down some, it would function normally. now it shows empty about 90% of the time no matter how much fuel is in the tank. no corrective measures done at this time.
03/21/201160500
 Fuel guage went down to zero in the tank and alarm bell sounded. tank was full at the time, then 2 days later it went back to full on the gauge. it is constantly changing. i called the dealer and they said there haven't been enough complaints aabout this to warrant a recall and repairs would be anywhere from $600 to $1200. this is dangerous and i could run out of gas with no warning. this should be fixed by gm free of charge.

 I have a 2006 chevy trail blazer with broken fuel gauge/ fuel sensor?? it started at about 50,00 miles. i have researched this and see it is a common problem. the dealership does not wish to fix it and the warranty is expired. the cost is about 600-800.00 and seems as this should be a recall.

 Fuel gauge goes to empty after refueling. it will remain there for awhile then gradually move up to full, then fall to mid level, and then empty again. eventually it will go to full and stay until the next fill up however, it is getting progressively longer for that to happen.

 While traveling down a town road at 40 mph, my trailblazer stalled in traffic. the vehicle would not start. the gas gauge was on 1/4 of a tank. we pushed the trailblazer into a parking lot. we discovered that there was no gas in the tank. after putting in 3 gallons of gas it started. since then everytime we fill up the tank, it reads empty and the light on the dash is lit with the engine symble. after about 5 gallons are used, it will work with no light eratically. we never know how much gas is in the tank with the gauge. we have run out of gas twice since then with autos hitting their brakes suddenly(not very happy).

 Spring of 2010, i encountered an erratic malfuncting fuel gas. i actually ran out of gas just once! gauge would show full, empty, fuel light on, gauge moving up and down. some days it worked fine. i finally had the fuel pump assy / sender unit replaced at a cost of $762. that fixed the problem. not happy!

 While driving on the highway the 2006 chevrolet tailblzer stalled. i pulled over to the side of the road safely and was unable to start the vehicle. we had it towed to a garage and had to pay over $500 in parts and labor to get it fixed. in the end the mechanic stated that they could not find the fault, it just finally started. the fuel guge has since failed and reads emptly all the time. before the fuel guage failed it would give inaccuate fuel readings. we have also had numerous stalls since that are resolved by waiting for 30 minutes and trying again.
04/30/200954000
 2006 chevrolet trailblazer. the gas gauge has stopped working completely. this is a safety hazard because it is impossible to know how much gas is left in the gas tank. this is a danger as i could run out of gas while driving. although i can use the odometr to guess about gas, it is not a definite measure of the amount of gasoline i have left. i know that this has been an issue with other chevrolet suvs and trucks. i checked on fixing the problem but because the entire gas tank has to be pulled from the vehicle, it will cost approximately $800 to fix the problem. because this appears to be a reoccuring problem with chevrolet and gmc suvs and trucks, i believe that this is an issue that should be addressed by chevrolet and gmc.
03/25/2011135000
 Inaccurate gas guage. unexplained stalls. the gas guage initially would show more gas than was available and later digressed to always showing empty. continious problem. 6 stalls in which the vehicle would not start after staling. all stalls occured in parking losts with no accidents. waiting 30 minutes to restart the vehivle. from november 2010 to present.

 I have a 2006 chevrolet trailblazer 4-wheel drive suv and the fuel guage started reading half full or empty when the tank was full. now, the fuel guage simply doesn't work. i have not yet paid the expensive sum to replace the fuel guage sending unit and am now simply relying on odometer mileage to know when to fuel.
12/01/200835200
 After completely filling up my gas tank i restarted the vehicle. the gas light came on, low fuel warning chimed and the gas gauge read empty. i immediately restarted and got the same indications. within a minute or so of driving the light went out and the gauge began to slowly rise. while driving the gauge would continue to slowly swing up and down, occasionally swinging low enough to trigger the low fuel warning (every 3-5minutes while moving). after about 1/4 tank of gas had been used the gauge seemed to stabilize and read accurately. the period of erratic behavior returned every time the tank was filled and appeared to be worsening (lasting longer with each cycle). on 12/09/2008 vehicle was serviced under warranty at a dealer and the fuel level sending unti was replaced. there have been no incidents since.
02/01/201145000
 My gas gauge has been fluctuating. sometimes the gauge would show empty when there was gas. other times it would show there was fuel in the tank and there wasnt. i called my chevy dealer and told them what happened. they said that they had heard of other people having this problem, but there was no recall. i was told that the repair would be very expensive because the fuel tank would have to be dropped. i was told to use my trip odometer to keep track how many miles was driven on a tank so that i wouldnt run out of gas. i work for gm and i contacted our local customer service rep. i was told to have the repair made, pay for it and maybe something could be worked out. i am filing this complaint because i heard the usnhtsa was investigating this same issue. i wanted someone to know there are more of out here with the same problem.

 In mid-2010 the fuel guage on my 2006 trailblazer became erratic and soon after stopped working. the guage is on empty, the fuel light stays on and the check engine light remains on continuously. the vehicle had about 40k miles on it when the problem started.
04/12/201135000
 Gas gauge began fluctuating then failed. needle goes between full and empty at any given time. (caused by faulty fuel level sensor/sender) i have had two other gm vehicles in the past ten years that have had their gas gauges fail. obviously a common problem with gm vehicles that they have failed to correct.
02/15/201190000
 Over the past few months, the fuel gauge on makes false readings on a 2006 chevy trailblazer ss 6.0l. upon filling up to a full tank the gage will say 'full' however while riding over bumps or accelerating/decelerating the gauge will bounce to empty and full regardless of the actual fuel level. this has occured for the past 20,000 miles continiously after fill up until approximately half the tank is emptied. once the gauge stops bouncing between full and empty the reading is no longer accurate. in once case i ran out of fuel while on a highway while the gauge read 1/4 tank moments prior to running out of gas and stalling out. i was told there is an electrical short occuring in the fuel sending unit and is a known problem and would require replacing the entire sending unit to fix the issue.

02/04/2011110000
 I have replaced the fuel guage,fuel pump on my 2005 trailblazer after it quit working. i also have a 2006 trailblazer and my wife ran out of gas, when we filled it up, the gas guage did the same thing as the 2005, so we have to use the odometer to know when to fill up. when i called my mechanic, he explained the situation was the same as my 2005. this is a very expensive repair
04/04/2011133000
 Fuel gauge started to flucuate about a month ago. the vehicle has approx 135k miles on it. had onstar run diagnostic and showed high fuel sensor error to take the car in for service...service engine light came on as well. when the tank is full, same issue as others have had, the gauge registers empty then starts to go up after several hours. to this date, the engine light goes on and off; every time put gas in registers empty to half when full. i have ran out of gas once last week on way to work, luckily i was not on interstate yet when gauge read i had almost half tank. when i took to dealer for regular oil change asked them to check it. they confirmed bad sensor and $600 repair cost to drop tank and fix issue. the part costs $45 at local auto parts store - crazy! since this is an issue that all drivers are having gm should issue the recall and fix the issue!
01/17/201196000
 Fuel gauge does not work properly and fluctuates between being empty or being full. must use trip odometer to monitor miles in order not to run out of gas. originally when problem started, fuel gauge would read empty after filling up tank and then after approximately 25-30 miles of driving gauge would read as being full. now gauge just constantly fluctuates between empty or full.

 We own a 2006 chevrolet trailblazer. the driver added fuel to the tank; however, the gas gauge indicated that it was empty. the driver turned the vehicle off and back on to see if the gauge would reset; to no avail. the following day the gas gauge did indicate that the fuel tank was full; yet, while driving approximately 25 mph, the gauge slowly began to move up and down but never indicating that the tank was full. since the fuel gage has malfunctioned, the contact is unsure of how much fuel was in the tank. the engine shut off a month ago because the fuel tank was empty and the fuel gauge did not indicate that. the driver did contact a mechanic who stated that they needed to replace the fuel pump. a mechanic stated that the failure was common for trailblazers and the it would cost between $600-$1200. to repair the vehicle. the failure mileage was 70,000 and the current mileage is approx. 76,000.

 I have a 2006 chevy trailblazer. the fuel gauge gives empty reading most of the time and will then show a high fuel leveel reading. i have 105000 miles on it. the fuel level reading can not be trusted. this started after filling the fuel tank on time. it was not overfilled.
05/01/201036000
 Fuel level sensor quit working so that gas tank always showed empty. an exhaustive internet search turned up a lot of other people with the same problem. tried to get chevy to replace under warranty as a known failure but they would not. finally paid a dealer to fix it. this is a well known problem to chevy that they failed to recall or fix.

 Was reading a news article today that nhtsa is investigating fuel gauge issue on gm suv's. considering my experience, i thought nhtsa would want to know of this issue and the resolution. back in february 2010 the fuel gauge on my government issued 2006 chevy trailblazer started to act in a strange way. upon fueling up it would read full, then go to empty in a minute, then go back to 1/2 full, then back to empty and then after 20 minutes it would stay on empty for a day or so, then go back to a normal reading. during the time this happened, and until it was repaired at a gov authorized repair garage, i had to use approximate milage to confirm how much fuel remained. it turned out, according to the repair facility, that a pump in or at the fuel tank had to be replaced. have not had that issue since the repair. repair was done outside of warranty and cost $457 ($300 in labor, $157 for the gauge unit) to have it fixed.

 Gas gauge does not work. engine light and fuel lights stay on constantly. wife has run out of gas several times requiring roadside assistance and placing her in danger of accident.

 Gas gage fails after filling tank. will start reading correctly after a couple of trips with vehicle and when gas usage gets to about 8 gallons used, gage will read empty again and check engine light comes on because it thinks it is out of gas.
10/24/201058000
 Faulty fuel gauge. started to go bad at less than 67000 miles. goes to empty when filled then fluctuates. never know how much gas you have. you are constantly looking at the tripometor to try and figure out how much gas you have. this is a traffic hazzard. gm should do a recall. thousands of complaints on internet. notified gm they would not do anything.
03/24/201182513
 Immediately after refueling to fill tank and starting vehicle, the fuel gauge went to full, back down to empty, then to half full. the gauge continued to flip back and forth. at each false empty the chime rang and yellow light appeared .the gauge continued to do this if full or close to empty. every time tank was filled the trip odometer had to be reset to zero and date and number of gallons noted. this is the only way we can track fuel consumption. we cannot trust the gauge readings at all. we have to do expressway driving to commute and have to refuel more often to keep track. we worry about safety of us and others!

 Gas gauge in 2006 trailblazer is erratic and inaccurate. when filled, the gauge goes to empty prompting a chime for low fuel. we never know how much fuel is left.

 Tl- the contact owns a 2006 chevrolet trailblazer. the contact noticed that the fuel gauge sender was reading inaccurately and he was unable to determine how much gas was actually in the vehicle. he also noticed that the check engine warning light illuminated. the contact did not inform the dealer or manufacturer nor was the vehicle diagnosed or repaired. the current mileages were 101,636 and the failure mileages were unknown. bw
09/18/201058000
 My vehicles gas gauge simply ceased working with no apparent reason or warning causing me to run out of gas on a very busy highway. i took my vehicle to a repair shop who informed me that, more than likely, one of the three sensors in my gas tank had ceased working and that it would cost me approximately $1200.00 to repair the same, which i cannot afford and which has yet to be repaired causing me no end of grief and aggravation.
05/03/2011
 I own a 2006 chevy trailblazer with what i believe to be a faulty gas guage. i was driving home last night and the gas light came on (which signals that fuel is needed) and within 5 minutes the car had stalled on a major highway (route 81). i googled trailblazer and gas guage and i saw the that the nhtsa has opened a probe of this issue, as it may be widespread. therefore, i am submitting my issue so that the number can be properly tracked in the event a recall is opened.
05/01/201045480
 Spring of 2010, i encountered an erratic malfuncting fuel gas. i actually ran out of gas just once! gauge would show full, empty, fuel light on, gauge moving up and down. some days it worked fine. i finally had the fuel pump assy / sender unit replaced at a cost of $762. that fixed the problem. not happy!
07/15/2010135000
 While driving on the highway the 2006 chevrolet tailblzer stalled. i pulled over to the side of the road safely and was unable to start the vehicle. we had it towed to a garage and had to pay over $500 in parts and labor to get it fixed. in the end the mechanic stated that they could not find the fault, it just finally started. the fuel guge has since failed and reads emptly all the time. before the fuel guage failed it would give inaccuate fuel readings. we have also had numerous stalls since that are resolved by waiting for 30 minutes and trying again.
04/30/200954000
 2006 chevrolet trailblazer. the gas gauge has stopped working completely. this is a safety hazard because it is impossible to know how much gas is left in the gas tank. this is a danger as i could run out of gas while driving. although i can use the odometr to guess about gas, it is not a definite measure of the amount of gasoline i have left. i know that this has been an issue with other chevrolet suvs and trucks. i checked on fixing the problem but because the entire gas tank has to be pulled from the vehicle, it will cost approximately $800 to fix the problem. because this appears to be a reoccuring problem with chevrolet and gmc suvs and trucks, i believe that this is an issue that should be addressed by chevrolet and gmc.
03/25/2011135000
 Inaccurate gas guage. unexplained stalls. the gas guage initially would show more gas than was available and later digressed to always showing empty. continious problem. 6 stalls in which the vehicle would not start after staling. all stalls occured in parking losts with no accidents. waiting 30 minutes to restart the vehivle. from november 2010 to present.
10/15/2010
 I have a 2006 chevrolet trailblazer 4-wheel drive suv and the fuel guage started reading half full or empty when the tank was full. now, the fuel guage simply doesn't work. i have not yet paid the expensive sum to replace the fuel guage sending unit and am now simply relying on odometer mileage to know when to fuel.
12/01/200835200
 After completely filling up my gas tank i restarted the vehicle. the gas light came on, low fuel warning chimed and the gas gauge read empty. i immediately restarted and got the same indications. within a minute or so of driving the light went out and the gauge began to slowly rise. while driving the gauge would continue to slowly swing up and down, occasionally swinging low enough to trigger the low fuel warning (every 3-5minutes while moving). after about 1/4 tank of gas had been used the gauge seemed to stabilize and read accurately. the period of erratic behavior returned every time the tank was filled and appeared to be worsening (lasting longer with each cycle). on 12/09/2008 vehicle was serviced under warranty at a dealer and the fuel level sending unti was replaced. there have been no incidents since.
02/01/201145000
 My gas gauge has been fluctuating. sometimes the gauge would show empty when there was gas. other times it would show there was fuel in the tank and there wasnt. i called my chevy dealer and told them what happened. they said that they had heard of other people having this problem, but there was no recall. i was told that the repair would be very expensive because the fuel tank would have to be dropped. i was told to use my trip odometer to keep track how many miles was driven on a tank so that i wouldnt run out of gas. i work for gm and i contacted our local customer service rep. i was told to have the repair made, pay for it and maybe something could be worked out. i am filing this complaint because i heard the usnhtsa was investigating this same issue. i wanted someone to know there are more of out here with the same problem.
07/13/201040000
 In mid-2010 the fuel guage on my 2006 trailblazer became erratic and soon after stopped working. the guage is on empty, the fuel light stays on and the check engine light remains on continuously. the vehicle had about 40k miles on it when the problem started.
04/12/201135000
 Gas gauge began fluctuating then failed. needle goes between full and empty at any given time. (caused by faulty fuel level sensor/sender) i have had two other gm vehicles in the past ten years that have had their gas gauges fail. obviously a common problem with gm vehicles that they have failed to correct.
02/15/201190000
 Over the past few months, the fuel gauge on makes false readings on a 2006 chevy trailblazer ss 6.0l. upon filling up to a full tank the gage will say 'full' however while riding over bumps or accelerating/decelerating the gauge will bounce to empty and full regardless of the actual fuel level. this has occured for the past 20,000 miles continiously after fill up until approximately half the tank is emptied. once the gauge stops bouncing between full and empty the reading is no longer accurate. in once case i ran out of fuel while on a highway while the gauge read 1/4 tank moments prior to running out of gas and stalling out. i was told there is an electrical short occuring in the fuel sending unit and is a known problem and would require replacing the entire sending unit to fix the issue.

02/04/2011110000
 I have replaced the fuel guage,fuel pump on my 2005 trailblazer after it quit working. i also have a 2006 trailblazer and my wife ran out of gas, when we filled it up, the gas guage did the same thing as the 2005, so we have to use the odometer to know when to fill up. when i called my mechanic, he explained the situation was the same as my 2005. this is a very expensive repair
04/04/2011133000
 Fuel gauge started to flucuate about a month ago. the vehicle has approx 135k miles on it. had onstar run diagnostic and showed high fuel sensor error to take the car in for service...service engine light came on as well. when the tank is full, same issue as others have had, the gauge registers empty then starts to go up after several hours. to this date, the engine light goes on and off; every time put gas in registers empty to half when full. i have ran out of gas once last week on way to work, luckily i was not on interstate yet when gauge read i had almost half tank. when i took to dealer for regular oil change asked them to check it. they confirmed bad sensor and $600 repair cost to drop tank and fix issue. the part costs $45 at local auto parts store - crazy! since this is an issue that all drivers are having gm should issue the recall and fix the issue!
01/17/201196000
 Fuel gauge does not work properly and fluctuates between being empty or being full. must use trip odometer to monitor miles in order not to run out of gas. originally when problem started, fuel gauge would read empty after filling up tank and then after approximately 25-30 miles of driving gauge would read as being full. now gauge just constantly fluctuates between empty or full.

 The fuel gauge is inaccurate. everytime i fill up my gas take it stays on e with the fuel light on. after driving maybe 60 miles or more it will re-read how much fuel is in my tank. with 3/4 tank it almost immediately just decreases down to e again and will stay there. took it to the dealership but way to expensive to repair. i have to track my miles and have noticed in online forums that i'm not the only complaint about this issue with the trailblazers and envoys
03/06/201199893
 Inaccurate fuel level 2006 trailblazer. sometimes when i fill the tank the low fuel light goes on and the gauge goes to empty. other times it looks like it has about a tank and a half on the needle. some days the gauge wont work at all. i have resorted to using the trip odometer because the gauge is totally inaccurate.

 Faulty fuel gauge. started to go bad at less than 67000 miles. goes to empty when filled then fluctuates. never know how much gas you have. you are constantly looking at the tripometor to try and figure out how much gas you have. this is a traffic hazzard. gm should do a recall. thousands of complaints on internet. notified gm they would not do anything.

 Immediately after refueling to fill tank and starting vehicle, the fuel gauge went to full, back down to empty, then to half full. the gauge continued to flip back and forth. at each false empty the chime rang and yellow light appeared .the gauge continued to do this if full or close to empty. every time tank was filled the trip odometer had to be reset to zero and date and number of gallons noted. this is the only way we can track fuel consumption. we cannot trust the gauge readings at all. we have to do expressway driving to commute and have to refuel more often to keep track. we worry about safety of us and others!

 The fuel gauge is inaccurate. everytime i fill up my gas take it stays on e with the fuel light on. after driving maybe 60 miles or more it will re-read how much fuel is in my tank. with 3/4 tank it almost immediately just decreases down to e again and will stay there. took it to the dealership but way to expensive to repair. i have to track my miles and have noticed in online forums that i'm not the only complaint about this issue with the trailblazers and envoys

 Inaccurate fuel level 2006 trailblazer. sometimes when i fill the tank the low fuel light goes on and the gauge goes to empty. other times it looks like it has about a tank and a half on the needle. some days the gauge wont work at all. i have resorted to using the trip odometer because the gauge is totally inaccurate.
10/20/2009
 My gas gauge was moving from full to 3/4 full back to full and all over the gauge. eventually it has stayed at empty with the light on. i have to gage my gas filling with the odomoeter

 Two days before we were to leave on vacation in our 2006 trailblazer, my wife filled up the gas tank and when she got in the car it read below empty and the check engine light was on. she immediately went to a shop where she was told it;s probably the sending unit, they go bad on trailblazers all the time. this was before a diagnostic test, and the test confirmed it. being that it is a certified used vehicle, 5 years old with 50,000 miles, we took it to the dealer. they said they could do it for $470.00 and it was not uncommon. i am 50 years old and have owned a dozen vehicles over the years, most older then this, and have never had this problem, ever, on any vehicle. since we were leaving on a vacation in two days, we felt we had better have it fixed, even though we could not afford it. i have since talked to other mechanics, and asked if there are any problems with trailblazers from 2006. every time i have been told not really, other then the fuel sending units, which is an expensive fix. unfortunately i have experienced that firsthand. while i can't replace the things we couldn't do on our vacation due to the cost of the repair, i would sure like to know how to get my money back. and since the new one came from the dealer and is oem equipment, how long will this one last? any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated.

 Spring of 2010, i encountered an erratic malfuncting fuel gas. i actually ran out of gas just once! gauge would show full, empty, fuel light on, gauge moving up and down. some days it worked fine. i finally had the fuel pump assy / sender unit replaced at a cost of $762. that fixed the problem. not happy!

 While driving on the highway the 2006 chevrolet tailblzer stalled. i pulled over to the side of the road safely and was unable to start the vehicle. we had it towed to a garage and had to pay over $500 in parts and labor to get it fixed. in the end the mechanic stated that they could not find the fault, it just finally started. the fuel guge has since failed and reads emptly all the time. before the fuel guage failed it would give inaccuate fuel readings. we have also had numerous stalls since that are resolved by waiting for 30 minutes and trying again.
04/30/200954000
 2006 chevrolet trailblazer. the gas gauge has stopped working completely. this is a safety hazard because it is impossible to know how much gas is left in the gas tank. this is a danger as i could run out of gas while driving. although i can use the odometr to guess about gas, it is not a definite measure of the amount of gasoline i have left. i know that this has been an issue with other chevrolet suvs and trucks. i checked on fixing the problem but because the entire gas tank has to be pulled from the vehicle, it will cost approximately $800 to fix the problem. because this appears to be a reoccuring problem with chevrolet and gmc suvs and trucks, i believe that this is an issue that should be addressed by chevrolet and gmc.
03/25/2011135000
 Inaccurate gas guage. unexplained stalls. the gas guage initially would show more gas than was available and later digressed to always showing empty. continious problem. 6 stalls in which the vehicle would not start after staling. all stalls occured in parking losts with no accidents. waiting 30 minutes to restart the vehivle. from november 2010 to present.
10/15/2010
 I have a 2006 chevrolet trailblazer 4-wheel drive suv and the fuel guage started reading half full or empty when the tank was full. now, the fuel guage simply doesn't work. i have not yet paid the expensive sum to replace the fuel guage sending unit and am now simply relying on odometer mileage to know when to fuel.
12/01/200835200
 After completely filling up my gas tank i restarted the vehicle. the gas light came on, low fuel warning chimed and the gas gauge read empty. i immediately restarted and got the same indications. within a minute or so of driving the light went out and the gauge began to slowly rise. while driving the gauge would continue to slowly swing up and down, occasionally swinging low enough to trigger the low fuel warning (every 3-5minutes while moving). after about 1/4 tank of gas had been used the gauge seemed to stabilize and read accurately. the period of erratic behavior returned every time the tank was filled and appeared to be worsening (lasting longer with each cycle). on 12/09/2008 vehicle was serviced under warranty at a dealer and the fuel level sending unti was replaced. there have been no incidents since.
02/01/201145000
 My gas gauge has been fluctuating. sometimes the gauge would show empty when there was gas. other times it would show there was fuel in the tank and there wasnt. i called my chevy dealer and told them what happened. they said that they had heard of other people having this problem, but there was no recall. i was told that the repair would be very expensive because the fuel tank would have to be dropped. i was told to use my trip odometer to keep track how many miles was driven on a tank so that i wouldnt run out of gas. i work for gm and i contacted our local customer service rep. i was told to have the repair made, pay for it and maybe something could be worked out. i am filing this complaint because i heard the usnhtsa was investigating this same issue. i wanted someone to know there are more of out here with the same problem.
07/13/201040000
 In mid-2010 the fuel guage on my 2006 trailblazer became erratic and soon after stopped working. the guage is on empty, the fuel light stays on and the check engine light remains on continuously. the vehicle had about 40k miles on it when the problem started.
04/12/201135000
 Gas gauge began fluctuating then failed. needle goes between full and empty at any given time. (caused by faulty fuel level sensor/sender) i have had two other gm vehicles in the past ten years that have had their gas gauges fail. obviously a common problem with gm vehicles that they have failed to correct.
02/15/201190000
 Over the past few months, the fuel gauge on makes false readings on a 2006 chevy trailblazer ss 6.0l. upon filling up to a full tank the gage will say 'full' however while riding over bumps or accelerating/decelerating the gauge will bounce to empty and full regardless of the actual fuel level. this has occured for the past 20,000 miles continiously after fill up until approximately half the tank is emptied. once the gauge stops bouncing between full and empty the reading is no longer accurate. in once case i ran out of fuel while on a highway while the gauge read 1/4 tank moments prior to running out of gas and stalling out. i was told there is an electrical short occuring in the fuel sending unit and is a known problem and would require replacing the entire sending unit to fix the issue.

 2006 chevy trailblazer fuel gauge stops working
02/04/2011110000
 I have replaced the fuel guage,fuel pump on my 2005 trailblazer after it quit working. i also have a 2006 trailblazer and my wife ran out of gas, when we filled it up, the gas guage did the same thing as the 2005, so we have to use the odometer to know when to fill up. when i called my mechanic, he explained the situation was the same as my 2005. this is a very expensive repair
04/04/2011133000
 Fuel gauge started to flucuate about a month ago. the vehicle has approx 135k miles on it. had onstar run diagnostic and showed high fuel sensor error to take the car in for service...service engine light came on as well. when the tank is full, same issue as others have had, the gauge registers empty then starts to go up after several hours. to this date, the engine light goes on and off; every time put gas in registers empty to half when full. i have ran out of gas once last week on way to work, luckily i was not on interstate yet when gauge read i had almost half tank. when i took to dealer for regular oil change asked them to check it. they confirmed bad sensor and $600 repair cost to drop tank and fix issue. the part costs $45 at local auto parts store - crazy! since this is an issue that all drivers are having gm should issue the recall and fix the issue!
01/17/201196000
 Fuel gauge does not work properly and fluctuates between being empty or being full. must use trip odometer to monitor miles in order not to run out of gas. originally when problem started, fuel gauge would read empty after filling up tank and then after approximately 25-30 miles of driving gauge would read as being full. now gauge just constantly fluctuates between empty or full.
05/02/200950000
 Tl-the contact owns a 2006 chevrolet trailblazer. the contact stated the fuel gauge would show full and another time it would show empty. the vehicle was taken to the dealer who informed him the fuel sending unit that controls the gauges is not covered under warranty. there would be a cost to repair the failure. the vehicle was not repaired and the vin was unknown. the manufacturer was not contacted. the failure mileage was 50,000 the current mileage was 73,000...mw
09/01/201039000
 I was traveling on four-lane divided highway which is one of the major thoroughfares for our city when the vehicle suddenly shut off. the gas gauge read above empty, however the vehicle ran out of gas. traffic was fairly heavy at the time and had i not been traveling in the right lane and able to readily reach the emergency lane the safety of my passenger and myself could have been in jeopardy,
01/09/201170000
 We own a 2006 chevrolet trailblazer. the driver added fuel to the tank; however, the gas gauge indicated that it was empty. the driver turned the vehicle off and back on to see if the gauge would reset; to no avail. the following day the gas gauge did indicate that the fuel tank was full; yet, while driving approximately 25 mph, the gauge slowly began to move up and down but never indicating that the tank was full. since the fuel gage has malfunctioned, the contact is unsure of how much fuel was in the tank. the engine shut off a month ago because the fuel tank was empty and the fuel gauge did not indicate that. the driver did contact a mechanic who stated that they needed to replace the fuel pump. a mechanic stated that the failure was common for trailblazers and the it would cost between $600-$1200. to repair the vehicle. the failure mileage was 70,000 and the current mileage is approx. 76,000.
05/01/201085000
 I have a 2006 chevy trailblazer. the fuel gauge gives empty reading most of the time and will then show a high fuel leveel reading. i have 105000 miles on it. the fuel level reading can not be trusted. this started after filling the fuel tank on time. it was not overfilled.
05/01/201036000
 Fuel level sensor quit working so that gas tank always showed empty. an exhaustive internet search turned up a lot of other people with the same problem. tried to get chevy to replace under warranty as a known failure but they would not. finally paid a dealer to fix it. this is a well known problem to chevy that they failed to recall or fix.

 Was reading a news article today that nhtsa is investigating fuel gauge issue on gm suv's. considering my experience, i thought nhtsa would want to know of this issue and the resolution. back in february 2010 the fuel gauge on my government issued 2006 chevy trailblazer started to act in a strange way. upon fueling up it would read full, then go to empty in a minute, then go back to 1/2 full, then back to empty and then after 20 minutes it would stay on empty for a day or so, then go back to a normal reading. during the time this happened, and until it was repaired at a gov authorized repair garage, i had to use approximate milage to confirm how much fuel remained. it turned out, according to the repair facility, that a pump in or at the fuel tank had to be replaced. have not had that issue since the repair. repair was done outside of warranty and cost $457 ($300 in labor, $157 for the gauge unit) to have it fixed.

 Two days before we were to leave on vacation in our 2006 trailblazer, my wife filled up the gas tank and when she got in the car it read below empty and the check engine light was on. she immediately went to a shop where she was told it;s probably the sending unit, they go bad on trailblazers all the time. this was before a diagnostic test, and the test confirmed it. being that it is a certified used vehicle, 5 years old with 50,000 miles, we took it to the dealer. they said they could do it for $470.00 and it was not uncommon. i am 50 years old and have owned a dozen vehicles over the years, most older then this, and have never had this problem, ever, on any vehicle. since we were leaving on a vacation in two days, we felt we had better have it fixed, even though we could not afford it. i have since talked to other mechanics, and asked if there are any problems with trailblazers from 2006. every time i have been told not really, other then the fuel sending units, which is an expensive fix. unfortunately i have experienced that firsthand. while i can't replace the things we couldn't do on our vacation due to the cost of the repair, i would sure like to know how to get my money back. and since the new one came from the dealer and is oem equipment, how long will this one last? any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated.

 About 3 months ago after filling the gas tank on my 2006 chevrolet trailblazer the gauge began to drop to empty and dance at a nearly empty level for a few minutes. the problem appeared to correct itself, then a few weeks and a couple of dances later the gauge read empty and the fuel light was permanently on. the problem still persists today.

 Filled 2006 trailblazer full of gas after tank was on empty. fuel gauge wavers all over the place and eventually settles on low fuel level and continues to chime even though the tank is completely full.
03/10/2011
 Starting last week when i filled up my tank, the fuel gauge will not reset, but rather goes straight to empty and the fuel light indicator light comes on. the warning light stays on the gauge reads empty. some times the gauge will read correctly, however, most times it stays at empty. after researching the problem, it appears that this is a well known problem for this specific vehicle as many people are experiencing the same issues. there does not appear to be a certain millage this happens at based on the research, but it is definitely a problem. i have read that some people experiencing the vehilce sputtering while they were driving leading to the check engine light coming on; all this happening after fueling the vehicle and driving it. many people have gone to the dealership and gm claims that this is not a problem. i do not know what the protocol for recalling certain parts of vehilces are, but this appears to be a known problem that is being brushed under the rug. the vehicle this is happening to is a 2006 chevrolet trailblazer. thank you for your time.

 The fuel sending unit on my trailbalzer has failed and i have run out of gas several times causing dangerous situations. i have had to call aaa several times. the repair job will cost about $800 and i cannot afford to do it. the gas tank must be pulled down and the entire fuel pump/sending unit must be replaced by a mechanic. it is a dangerous job. i think general motors should issue a recall and repair free to the owners i know of several others running with the same condition. it will not pass new york state inspection with this condition...thank you.

 Normal driving and the gas gauge just malfunctioned. i ran out of gas twice because of false readings. one time has on a four lane highway during rush hour. that was extremely dangerous. nothing has been done to correct the issue. this seems to be a common problem from the 10000 posts ive seen in forums. it is a $400 fix at the local chevy dealer.

 2006 chevrolet trailblazer ls 4.2l i6 4x4 98,000 miles- fuel gauge not working after fuel up. gauge shows empty when in fact the tank is full. the check engine light is also on. gauge also fluctuates from full to empty while driving. this is very hazardous as i could run out of gas merging on the highway or pulling out in traffic. i have no way of telling how much fuel that i have other than keeping track of the mileage (and that is not always accurate). after searching this topic on the internet i see that this is a very common problem. i spoke with the chevrolet dealership about this issue, and they told me that it was the fuel sending unit in the gas tank (which they did say is a common problem on this vehicle). they said it will cost around $800 to fix it. i am going to have to keep driving my vehicle the way it is because i can not come up with that money at this time...

 I am the owner of a 2006 chevy trailblazer 4wd. my gas gauge has been bouncing around from empty to full and back down. recently my car stalled out on the highway! i was able to manuever my car into a safe location. this is definately a safety issue!! i was told that by the gentlemen at my local chevy dealership that this is a common problem with this car and that my fuel sensor isn't reading. the fuel tank needs to be dropped and that i would have to fork out the $900 to make this repair. it seems to me that if this is such a known issue and a clear safety issue that you the nhtsa would help to insure the public's safety by mandating a recall for this part. please also refer to this thread: http://www.topix.com/forum/autos/chevrolet-trailblazer/th8ji6tepo3vrji3d/p24 to view over 500 complaints! i will assure you that when this does cause a major accident, if it hasn't already, there will definately be litigation to follow. i can no longer trust my fuel reading and have to reset my tripometer and only drive 250 miles before i fuel up again. please!! something has to be done!!!!!

 As with the thousands of other trailblazer, envoy and 9-7x owners my fuel level sensor quit working. it shows empty all the time and the check engine light remains on. i am a disabled american with very little income from disability and can not afford the $600+ a garage charges to repair the problem. this is a very common problem with 2005-2008 gm suv's and certainly should have been a recall by now as this problems has affected tens of thousands of trailblazer owners. this is a safety problem as the gauge will fail with no warning and can create serious hazards when a vehicle will run out of gas

 In august, 2009, i filled my gas tank in my 2006 chevy trailblazer and when i got into the car, the gas gauge read empty. when i restarted the car, the fuel guage read empty and the check engine light would turn on. i found several complaints online about the same issue, and began using the tripometer to measure the mileage, refueling at approximately 250-300 miles. unfortunately, in august, 2010, while driving on a major freeway, the car ran out of gas and i barely avoided being hit from behind. i was able to coast to the side of the road, and was helped by a friend who happened to spot me in trouble. friday, february 11, 2011: it appears that now my fuel pump has gone bad and i am unable to move fuel to the engine. the car turns over but there isn't fuel moving through the lines to keep the engine running. there are multiple complaints about the fuel sensor online about the gm models from 2004-2007. (513 as of today) gm needs to provide a recall on all vehicles with this issue, instead of charging it's customers $800.00+ to drop the gas tank and replace parts that they are well aware are defective.

 I own a 2006 chevy trailblazer and the gas gauge has stopped working. i was told the sensor is bad. it should be a valid recall. if you google it you can see how many people are having the same problem. i am going to watch the mileage for now and do fill ups as needed by mileage. i am not in a position to put out that kind of money for a well recognized problem. i have always bought ford, thought i'd try chevy, bad choice. i already also had to replace parts in the heater that want out in the middle of winter.

 In august, 2009, i filled my gas tank in my 2006 chevy trailblazer and when i got into the car, the gas gauge read empty. when i restarted the car, the fuel guage read empty and the check engine light would turn on. i found several complaints online about the same issue, and began using the tripometer to measure the mileage, refueling at approximately 250-300 miles. unfortunately, in august, 2010, while driving on a major freeway, the car ran out of gas and i barely avoided being hit from behind. i was able to coast to the side of the road, and was helped by a friend who happened to spot me in trouble. friday, february 11, 2011: it appears that now my fuel pump has gone bad and i am unable to move fuel to the engine. the car turns over but there isn't fuel moving through the lines to keep the engine running. there are multiple complaints about the fuel sensor online about the gm models from 2004-2007. (513 as of today) gm needs to provide a recall on all vehicles with this issue, instead of charging it's customers $800.00+ to drop the gas tank and replace parts that they are well aware are defective.

 The fuel light stays on empty even when the car is full. you can never know how much gas is in the car. the check engine light comes on. it goes off when the car is full for about one day, then comes back on again until you fill the car up again. there is a problem with the sensor and it costs approximately $800 to have it repaired. this is a problem in chevy trailblazers as everyone that i have spoken with that has a trailblazer has this problem. i even know a couple that has a 1999 trailblazer with the same problem. the dealer refuses to fix the problem because there has not been a recall.

 Fuel gauge has been inaccurate since we bought it used in 2007. it would go from 1/4 tank to out of gas in less than 15 miles. ran out of gas 3 times, twice when the low fuel light was not even on. once stranded in the middle of traffic while making a left turn on a snow covered road, very dangerous. this incident report is for recent problem: after filling the tank completely with gas, the fuel light came on. even after turning it on and off, light stayed on. then the gauge fluctuated from empty to full back to empty while driving. fuel gauge is now works sporadically but never sure if it is correct. i need to track mileage between fill-ups to ensure there is gas in the tank. since we have multiple drivers in the family, this is a nerve-racking system.

 In september 2010 i started having problems with my 2006 chevy trailblazer with the windshield wipers going all of the time . the only way i can get them to shut off or turn them back on is to take the fuse out. this is so inconvient because the fuse box is located in the backseat on the passengers side . i have to lift the seat up and remove two boxes and put in the fuse and to remove it i have to use pliers to get it out.... also my low fuel light stays on even when i have a full tank of gas so i am constantly at the gas station getting gas so that i am aways sure to have gas in my vehicle. the dealership wants to put the vehicle on diagnostic for $99 which does not go towards the cost of repairs which i can not afford because i am unemployed.. i have taken the vehicle back to the dealership i purchased it from and they indicate that it is no longer under warranty and there is nothing they can do but repair it and maybe give me 10% off of my repairs since i purchased it from them...... i see where u have many complaints on this same year and make and model.. do u have any suggestions on what can be done on this?

 At around 80,000 miles my 2006 cheverolet trailblazer started showing empty when i filled up with gas. now at about 85,000 miles it continually shows empty. have researched and found out that i will have to replace the whole fuel pump/intake and outtake which could cost around $800 at the dealership. have also found out that this is a common problem with the later model trailblazers. needs a recall!!

 I ran out of gas even though my car gas gauge said it had gas. when i went to put gas in car i filled it up and my gas gauge said it was empty even though it is full... my car on had 17,000 miles on it when it began having this problem gas gauge doesnt work took it to a machanic and was told it was the sending unit and i know many people with 06 chevys having the same problem

 I have an 06 chevy trailblaze that the fuel gage is not reading right. i have been told that i will need a new fuel sensor but to get that i will have to replace the whole fuel pump. i have done some resurce online and have seen that alot of people are having the same problem. we all seem to feel that gm should do a recall for this part.

 Filled my gas tank on my 2006 chevrolet trailblazer ls 4wd. just after fill up fuel gauge now registers dead empty. searched the internet for the problem, seems like alot of people are having the same problem (fuel sensor??). my vehicle has 73,000 approx miles. i read hundreds of posts with the same exact problem. why is there no recall!!!!
12/06/201051596
 I have read about many owners of the 2006 trailblazer that have had gas gauge not registering. i was hoping i would not have the same problem. no such luck! my gas gauge registered a little less than 1/2 tank when i filled up. after starting the car, the gas gauge registered empty and continues to register empty even though i had just filled up. my trailblazer has low miles, a little over 51,000, so a problem like this shouldn't be happening. i noticed that there was an investigation started in jan, 2010...when will there be a recall????? this could be a major problem if we run out of gas unknowingly. does it take someone getting killed in a rear-end collision because we have stalled on the highway, before a recall is issued??? this issue has been going on too long with no resolution.

 I have read about many owners of the 2006 trailblazer that have had gas gauge not registering. i was hoping i would not have the same problem. no such luck! my gas gauge registered a little less than 1/2 tank when i filled up. after starting the car, the gas gauge registered empty and continues to register empty even though i had just filled up. my trailblazer has low miles, a little over 51,000, so a problem like this shouldn't be happening. i noticed that there was an investigation started in jan, 2010...when will there be a recall????? this could be a major problem if we run out of gas unknowingly. does it take someone getting killed in a rear-end collision because we have stalled on the highway, before a recall is issued??? this issue has been going on too long with no resolution.

 Failure of accurate gas gauge reading on 2006 chevrolet tralblazer ls. have read about hundreds , if not thousand's of consumers having the same problem . gm says it is the fuel sending sensor malfunction. they should have a recall on this . the danger it may be posing is , not knowing how much fuel is left in tank and a possibility of losing engine power and causing a horrific auto accident. today , 11/29/2010, i filled my gas tank and the gas gauge went to empty and the light to let you know that you are running low on fuel came on. it hasn't gone off either. but the tank was full , i just filled it . please look into the matter....

 While driving at night, the low beam headlights stopped working without notice. stopped at next convenience store, checked all fuses and all were good. started ignition and lights still did not work. checked high beam headlights and they worked. followed up with mechanic the following morning. could not diagnose problem and referred to a local dealer. dealer diagnosed problem as being a faulty bcm. bcm was replaced. approx. 8 weeks later, same problem w/low beam lights not working. dealer replaced relay. now low beams work, check engine light has come on and fuel gauge has stopped working.

 Gas gauge went crazy bounced to full then empty lights flashing then stopped working all together. i was told it is the fuel gauge sensor which costs around $1000 to repair due to having to drop the gas tank. also causes engine light to remain on at all times.

 Tl- the contact owns a 2006 chevrolet trail blazer. the contact ran out of gas twice because the gas gauge did not read properly. the vehicle can be filled with gas, but the gauge will still read empty. the contact has not had problems with gas spilling when filling the gas tank. the gauge however does not move from empty when the tank id filled and this causes the contact to not know how much gas the vehicle has. the vin was not available at the time of the complaint. the failure mileage and current was 35000 and the failure mileage was 50000.rl

 Filled my tank up with gas and it read empty. the gas level sensor does not work, i have to calculate my mileage and have been stranded with no gas on the side of the highway twice while i was pregnant and had an infant in the trailblazer with me. not safe and i think that if there are as many people having the same issue there needs to be a recall. from what i have read chevy has not issued a recall, yet all of there 05 and 06 models have this same issue.

 1. not sure what caused the original failure, but i would say it started after i filled my car with gas 2. it was every time i filled with gas for the first few months, now it is constant and every time my car is in motion. 3. nothing has been done to correct the problem as the car is out of warranty and cost is well over $800, also they are unsure of the exact problem. details: my fuel light on my car reports that there is no gas in the car even after filling up. the engine light also comes on because of this and causes issues with the car. it is out of warranty and the deal says it is could be any number of problems with the fuel system that would cost over $800. it is very scary because of the warnings that come on the car. it started after filling with gas and before would be normal after driving about 20 miles. now it is constant. when i first start the vehicle it works fine and tells me the range, but as soon as the car is in motion it goes back to empty. have replaced gas cap and other things as suggested, but the problem is now constant and at times while driving i can smell gas very strong. it lasts for a about 10-15 minutes and is frightning, the dealerships says it could be the pressure in the gas tank. it is very scary and very expensive for an issue they are unsure of. i request you investigate this because it appears to be a problem that the dealership knows about and refuses to do anything about unless we spend the money for them to fix something they are not sure of and have been given about a 50% chance the problem returns.

 Due to a mechanical failure, i had to have the fuel sensor replaced in my 2006 chevrolet trailblazer right after the warranty expired. the sensor was replaced and seemed to function properly until i was stranded on the side of the road a few months ago with my young child. the gas gauge was again giving false readings and my vehicle had run out of fuel. as it stands now, i will have replace the equipment for the second time in a vehicle that is only four years old. after my experience of suddenly having no fuel, i can certainly say it creates a dangerous situation while driving. if there had been more traffic in my vicinity, i don't know that i would have been as fortunate as i was.

 Gas guage failure. manufacturer has no recall for failure. cost to repair $800 to $1000 dollars
09/06/200959000
 Fuel guage not working. problem occurred at approximately 59k miles. ran out of gas in middle of highway and was nearly rear ended by vehicles traveling over 65 mph. based on complaints listed across the internet, it is a commmon problem with this vehicle. dealership says not much we can do except replace fuel system - still won't fix problem as it will likely occur again. also told me good luck with getting recall particularly since us auto struggles = no bad press for us automakers. he then pointed me to this site and told me to notice that nothing has been done on the investigation front since january 2010 despite the problem being reported since basically may 2007. interesting...but i have faith that this is not the case and that this issue will be addressed. anyway, there is more than enough info available on this site and across the internet on the problems with the fuel system on these vehicles. it is only a matter of time when someone is going to get seriously injured when they run out of gas and cause an accident. lets hope that we do not get to that point, but given the history, we likely will.

 I purchased a 2006 chevrolet trailblazer back in oct 2009, within the past 3 months i have now have had problems with the fuel lever sensor. my gas gauge will remain on empty even after i fill up the tank and causes the engine light to stay on. i have researched online and found that it is a very common problem with my vehicle however no recall has been issued. i have two small children who are in my car most of the time. i am very afraid that i will run out of gas and stall on the freeway. this can cause a huge accident if i stall in the middle of the freeway going 65 mph. i have been tracking the mileage on my own but it is very hard to be accurate as to how much gas is really left.

 First of all my fuel lever sensor went out. i only figured it out when i was in a busy shopping intersection and my vehicle just shut down. lucky for me no car rear ended me but one did come close. at the time as far i knew my car had over half a tank of gas in it. come to find out late it didn't. to my embarrassment i slowed and stopped traffic for close to an hour while i called for help and had to be towed. my machanic explained the problem (the fuel level sensor) and gave me two options get the part replace or keep track of the milage and gas i put in daily, because of the cost to replace the part plus labor i decided to keep track of the mileage instead of having it replaced. now i'm having a whole other issue i am only able to pump $10 of gas at a time because now my fuel pump went out also. when i pump gas my car thinks that it has gas when it doesn't. now i have no option but the get my car repaired for both issues of which i am doing this week. this is seriously ridiculous. i should not be having these issues with this new of a car. hopefully something is done about this issue.

 I own a 2006 chevy trailblazer. my fuel tank level sensor is not working in the vehicle. my gas gauge now always reads empty even after filling the vehicle up. this happened right after my warranty expired. i am being told they have to take the whole gas tank out to fix the problem. since i am not able to afford that fix i have been doing research on the subject, it turns out there are a ton of folks with this vehicle experiencing the same issue. recently, due to this problem my car stalled out in the middle of me driving through a green light. i was able to pull over to the shoulder off the road. but if i had been in a busy intersection, it most likely would have ended in an accident.

 2006 chev. trailblazer's fuel gauge failed at 40,000 miles. shows empty all the time. there is no way to know how much fuel is left in the vehicle. the vehicle may run out of fuel without warning, stranding the driver and other occupants. repair was quoted at over $500.00. i have not repaired, i was advised the replacement part would fail within a few months. was told the system was defective and the manufacturer is aware of the defect but will not address the problem.

 2006 cheverolet trailblazer ls suddenly has non operational fuel gauge. after filling up the vehicle with gas(the gauge was reading at about 1/4 full a time of fueling) upon restarting the empty fuel light has come on. the gauge itself then dropped below the 1/4 full tank previous reading all the way to zero. this is the first time this has happened. but after coming home and reading online complaints this a shocklingly common occurrence with this model gm vehicle(and not just a temporary glitch, one that never goes away after it happens, but a gas guage that from then on always reads empty). a non operational system for fuel level is a considerable safety hazard. it is the only thing to accurately measure the energy that remains to run the car.

 2006 chevrolet trailblazer fuel level sensor hasn't worked since about 28,000 miles, now has about 80,000 miles on vehicle. thousands upon thousands of 2006 trailblazers have had the same problem which chevrolet (gm) knows about but won't put out a recall service bulletin to replace this defaulted part. here the taxpayers bailed gm out , but they won't take care of this hugh problem where an opperator of this vehicle could run out of fuel at any time not knowing how much fuel is in the tank because it reads empty all of the time with the low fuel light on as well. we as taxpayers can bail them out, but they wo'n take car of a problem that could result in deaths when a vehicle runs out of fuel at the wrong time, and in the wrong place. is this what is needed before gm takes care of this problem? this seems to be the case. also with this problem it sends signals that won't allow the vehicle to pass ny state vehicle inspection when there is nothing else wrong with the vehicle.

 Dear sir/madam, for several days i do have a problem with the fuel gauge indicator of my chevorlet trailblazer 2006. the indicator shows full after a gas station stop and within less than 5 minutes it indicates empty. sometimes it bounces up and down and then it gets stuck at empty. in the meantime the check engine light is on permanently. this is a very frustrating situation since i travel a lot for business and private with my car. i never know when sufficient gasoline is in the tank and consider this situation dangerous, the engine could stop any moment and lead to an accident. i did some research and i found several complaints from other chevrolet trailblazer 2006 owners all over the internet. it looks like a common problem with this model. i would like to request a comment from nhtsa and gm regarding this problem and would suggest that gm might consider a recall for the chevy trailblazer to replace the fuel gauge indicator. talked to gm customer service several times. the cost estimate for the repair service is 350 - 400 $. my local chevy dealer told me that the fuel sensor needs to be replaced. cost for the part is 122 $ without taxes. plus labor cost. the service advisor told me that several chevy trailblazer owners in the had the same problem with their cars. the conclusion is: the fuel sensor/gauge cannot handle the gasoline quality that is sold in the us. they blame certain additives in the gasoline to cause corrosion on that particular part. question: did gm change the material for the fuel sensor/gauge in the meantime, so that the part will not break again? from my point of view and many other trailblazer owners: this specific car part is defective and should be replaced via a recall. i ran once out of gasoline, on a busy us route in pa. *tr

 I drive a 2006 chevy trailblazer. after refueling the truck, i noticed the gas cap did not lock properly and the fuel gauge started to jump from empty to full. the check engine light also came on. i immediately replaced the fuel cap but the fuel gauge continued to read inaccurately over the next several weeks. shortly thereafter, the gauge always reads empty even with a full tank of gas. a chevy mechanic told me the problem was a faulty fuel gauge sending unit in the gas tank. he said the repairs would cost ~$1,000. i cannot afford the repairs and it is a safety hazard to be continuously checking the mileage odometer to assure i don't not run out of gas. my boss has a gmc envoy with the exact same problem. i quick search on the internet reveals several hundred if not thousands of complaints about the same issue. i have almost run out of gas while driving. this faulty gas gauge is a serious safety problem that gm should take ownership for and not require car owners to repair.*tr

 Fuel gauge sensor does not function. this causes the fuel tank to constantly read empty. i noticed this just as the warranty on my leased vehicle was about to expire due to mileage the fuel gauge stopped working. i have been forced to use the trip odometer on the vehicle to determine if i need fuel or not. when this first started occurring, it worked and then didn't work and i ran out of fuel on some busy roads and had to push my vehicle to a fuel station. when i took the vehicle to porter chevy to have it fixed they said it would cost me $950. i spoke to other chevy dealers and they said prices ranging from $800-$1500 to correct and had two mechanics tell me that the part is garbage and that it would just break again within a year not to waste my money. i filed a complaint on through the cpsc and found 50 others just like mine on there. not nhtsa was on cnn and i checked to see over 200 similar cases on this site some involving serious safety issues over the same problem i'm having. i have 3 small kids and need this corrected. not my fault that chevy is ripping off its customers with faulty parts. *tr

 Fuel gauge will not work correctly and is on empty even though it was full of gasoline. the gauge is not working now at all and use tripometer to monitor mileage. why, because the dealership wants over $900 to repair and i don't have the money. how many complaints does your office need to receive before a recall is done by the manufacturer? this is dangerous and very expensive and there is no reason a car with 40,000 miles on it to have this happen. *tr

 Around 65,000 miles, my 2006 chevrolet trailblazer gas gauge suddenly stopped working, only reading as empty and turning on the yellow gas light. this also caused my check engine light to turn on. upon taking my car for inspection, my car was failed, because the check engine light was due to a bad fuel sensor in my car and the charge to have it repaired is around $900. upon doing research about this part i found that many other people have had this exact problem around the same mileage as when my problem began. due to this problem i must now track my mileage in order to know when to fill up, and because i cannot afford the repairs, i cannot pass my state inspection. i feel this problem should be issued as a recall by gm. *tr

 I hit a bump one day and the interior light popped on for a second and then went off. i eventually realized the rear door was not latching at all, i tinkered with it, tried some wd-40, it does work intermittently, but is getting to the point where its not latching the majority of the time. the 3 bolts holding the locking mechanism and the point where the lock with latch do show signs of corrosion. it appears the 2003 trailblazers had this same issue and eventually there was a recall. at 38,000 miles i also had the fuel gauge issue and the fuel sending unit is bad. *tr

 2006 trailblazer, gas gauge light stays on no matter how much gas is in the tank. seems like an on going issue with chevy trailblazers between 30k - 60k miles, cost $600 - $800 to repair, should be something covered by chevy if there are so many complaints regarding this issue. i use the trip odometer, however, i have ran out of gas, which could have lead to varies dangerous/life threatening events. chevy should recall this, before they face a major lawsuit based off something going terribly wrong because of a defective product. *tr

 Last night i filled my tank up; originally the indicator was on the last line before empty. when i turned my car on after filling the car up completely, the indicator on the fuel gauge went below the empty symbol and the low fuel light came on. i drove the car home and continued to check it through the evening. the tank read empty and the low fuel light was on every time i checked it, but no other lights came on. this morning the indicator was still below the empty symbol, the low fuel light was on, and now the check engine light came on. while driving to work the indicator fluctuated between full and empty. at lunch, 4 hours later, when i turned the car on the indicator was at full. however, after driving 2 miles, it went down completely to empty and the low fuel light can on again. after doing research on the internet this morning i found out that this problem was most likely a fuel sensor problem and that there were many other complaints. all complaints having a fuel gauge problem involved 2005 or 2006 chevy trailblazers that have reached mileage of 44,000-53,000 miles. when i called the chevy dealership where i bought the car i was told that i was correct, that this was most likely a fuel sensor problem. i was told that this was not a problem that trailblazers have, it was a problem that all new cars have, because there are so many electronic components in new cars and that they fail. it would cost a minimum $800-900 to fix. my car is barely 3 yrs old (2006 model bought used with 10,000 miles in june 06) and has 51,900 miles on it. *tr

 I just bought my used 2006 chevy trailblazer a few months ago, and almost immediately began having problems with my fuel gauge. everytime i would fill up, the gauge would malfunction and read empty. the low fuel light would come on and the chime would alert for low fuel. eventually, after driving several miles, the gauge would begin working correctly. however, the problem has gotten increasingly worse over the past few months. sometimes the gauge would not correct itself at all, and often the check engine light would also come on. more recently the fuel gauge rarely corrects itself and i have to constantly keep track of my mileage and guess when i need a fill up. upon researching this problem online, i've discovered that there are an alarmingly large number of gm owners who have experienced this same problem! supposedly, the repair requires a new fuel pump, sensor, etc. of course, since the tank has to be dropped, this means a high labor rate as well. most people report a cost of approx $800 to correct this problem! luckily, my vehicle is still under manufacturer warranty, but with the outrageous number of owners with this issue, gm should be required to step up and take responsibility! a recall definitely seems to be in order! *tr

 After having my vehicle for one year, the fuel gauge suddenly became erratic. when fuel was near empty, it would read full or half full. the engine repair light would go on and off inconsistently during the same time. i thought it might be the quality of gasoline, but trying different brands did not help. within a few months, no matter how much fuel was in my tank, the gauge would read e for empty, with the needle never moving from e. the yellow light and dinging sound ring a lot letting me know i am supposed to be out of fuel, but am not. this is the case even with a full tank of gas. it is a safety hazard because i have to reset my tripometer when filling up on a new tank of gas, so i know about 250 miles, i need to fill up again. if i don't do this, i could run out of gas, cause a crash, or a fatal accident since my gauge always reads empty. i have read many blog and complaints about the fuel gauge on the trailblazer and other chevrolet vehicles. mine is a 2006 with currently less than 24,000 miles on it, and at the time of occurrence, about 21,000.00 miles. i understand the repair and parts will be about $800.00. for such a young vehicle with low mileage, how can this be? there needs to me a recall with so many people having the same problem. *tr

 My 2006 chevy trailblazer ls has a faulty fuel sensor. i have been given quotes for the repairs between $800-$1300 to fix! this is asinine! i can't believe that i have to pay for gm's faulty part! this is dangerous! the gauge read i had 1/4 of a tank of fuel left. i stalled out on the highway, i managed to coast, safely, to the emergency lane. now my gauge doesn't even read there is fuel present, remaining on empty all of the time. some time the check engine light is on, other times it is not. i refuel every 250 miles, to stay safe. what are you and gm waiting for? someone to die? there is an entire internet site dedicated to the complaints of people who are having te exact same problem. you can not turn a blind eye to this! please call for a mandatory recall! there have been no deaths or injuries or crashes in my car because of this, but rest assured...they have happened or will soon! http://www.topix.com/forum/autos/chevrolet-trailblazer/th8ji6tepo3vrji3d/p29

 My vehicle fuel gauge was moving from empty to full sporadically. finally my fuel gauge indicated that i had an empty tank; this is after i have completely filled my tank. i took my vehicle into the dealership and was informed that the fuel sensor went bad and it will need to be replaced. i have not had the vehicle repaired because it will cost nearly $900.00.

 The fuel gauge on my 2006 chevy trailblzer has not worked for approximately a year and a half. when i fill the tank, the gauge shows empty, with the low fuel light on. after fill up, the check engine light is on. after using several gallons, the check engine light turns off, but the fuel gauge still shows empty. i have had to depend on mileage readings in order to know when to fill up. i have spoke to the local dealer and was told this was a common complaint.

 My 2006 brand new chevy trailbalzer odometer completely failed in 2009. i did not think much about it until my brother, and sister both complained about the same issue on their new vehicles what makes it so bad is that the gauge is in the tank, and the cost to fix the problem at the dealership was $700. when i saw that an investigation was ongoing, i wanted to log my complaint. this cannot be a coinsidence.

 I own a 2006 chevrolet trailblazer with about 87000 miles on it. recently the fuel gauge has been showing empty upon starting with the low fuel light being on. as you drive sometimes the gauge will show the amount of fuel in the tank and sometimes it varys and is all over the place making it impossible to determine how much fuel you have left. i am making it a habit to moniter my miles so as to not run out of fuel. no accidents or injuries have occured related to this issue, it is just a nuisance at this time. i haven't had it repaired as it involves replacing the fuel pump/sending unit at an estimated cost of $800. this is just an fyi type thing to show you that many of these type vehicles have this issue. thank you for your time.

 I purcahsed a 2006 trailblazer in 2008 a few months after the fuel gauge started failing and was marking empty, so after doing some research i came across thousands of people with this same problem. 2006 trailblazers have an inherant problem w/ the in-tank level sensor , etc ... gm should have recalled this vehicle by now - it is frustrating for both owners and mechanics ... it is obvious that a large portion of trailblazer owner are having issuesrelated to fuel sensors and delivery - im a single mother of four children and im unable to afford this repair im already paying over 18,000 for this vehicle. please gm - rectify this issue - any problem gasolene related should be a top priority !!!!

 The gas gauge goes to empty when it is full than eventually it will return to full after driving it sometime from what i have been reading this happened to alot of chevy trailblazers and i dont think we should be responsible for it. they are saying the repair can run anywhere from 400 to 900 dollars..which this is not fair.

 Tl-the contact owns a 2006 chevrolet trailblazer. while driving approximately 45 mph, the contact observed that the fuel gauge reading fluctuated and suddenly failed to operate. the vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer where they stated that the fuel tank sensor was defective. the vehicle was not repaired. the failure mileage was approximately 105,000. js

 I'm filing this complaint regarding gm's faulty fuel sensors. the gas gause on my 2006 chevy trailblazer stopped registering. when the dealer advised it would cost $500 to fix it i researched online and found 100's upon 100's of similar complaints. i believe a recall is necessary. it's unfair and unjust to expect the consumer to pick up the bill for gm's faulty engineering/part.

 I have a 2006 chevrolet trailblazer ls.september 2009 is when it happened. the fuel sensor went out on my vehicle and now i have to get it repaired possibly to pass my fuel emissions inspection. i didn't have it repaired because that it was going to cost me like $400 to get it fixed. i don't have that kind of money to get it fixed butg now i have to for it to pass inspection.

 About last january my gas guage started acting up. i would fill my tank with gas and the gas guage would read empty and the low fuel light would come on and the engine light came on. the gauge would bounce around and cause my low fuel light to go on and turn off. the audible advisor would ding at me 5 times everytime it hit empty. now, today, my check engine light is on constantly and the gas guage is stuck at empty and the low fuel light is on constantly. this started to occur at around 68,000miles and now i am at about 72,000. i have checked with a couple repair shops and they state that the fuel sensor is defective and it will cost me approximately $800 to repair. to date i have not had the problem repaired. i use my trip odometer and fill up around every 250 miles.

 I herewith request that nhtsa opens an investigation into the performance/reliability of the fuel level sensor installed in model year 2006 chevrolet trailblazer vehicles. in case the fuel tank level sensor is or becomes defective it could result in a subject vehicle running out of fuel, stall, and being rear ended by another vehicle. the currently owned chevrolet trailblazer 2006 has already the third fuel sensor. the first replacemnt took place when the vehcile was 6 months old, the second replacement took place in spring 2010. gm customer service and the chevrolet repair shop denied a malfunction of the involved fuel sensor. i am still in possesion of the third (old) sensor. complaints to adelco, the supplier of the fuel sensor did not lead to an result either. never received a satifying answer from gm nor from adelco. in the internet i found multiple complaints from other trailblazer owners regrding the fuel sensor. since my vehicle has the fourth fuel sensor i do have problems again (fuel cap not properly closed warning light comes on sometimes, engine/emission failure light comes on sometimes). gm customer service in detroit told me to go tomy local chevy dealer and ask them to review the problem and estimate the cost. i was told they would afterwards make a decison to reimburse me for the cost. after the repair service gm and the dealer declined the reimbursement request and claimed the part failed because of the high mileage. the replaced sensor was for only 40000 miles in the vehicle. the second fuel sensor was installed before i purchased the car from a gm dealer (was never told about that problem).

 We have a newborn and 2 young children which my wife had in the car with her. 2 weeks ago she was traveling down the highway and the car stopped, engine shut off. the gas level indication showed close to 1/4 of a tank of gas. she was able to get it to the side of the road and her mother was called. she brought gas to her and they put some gas into the car....car then started normally. now the needle provides no indication to how much gas is within the tank and chevy dealer in cincinnati explained that we must purchase a new fuel level sensor. my wife was almost in an accident due to this sensor failure and only now are we hearing about a hidden recall.....

 Filled my tank up with gas and it read empty. the gas level sensor does not work, i have to calculate my mileage and have been stranded with no gas on the side of the highway twice while i was pregnant and had an infant in the trailblazer with me. not safe and i think that if there are as many people having the same issue there needs to be a recall. from what i have read chevy has not issued a recall, yet all of there 05 and 06 models have this same issue.

 Filled my tank up with gas and it read empty. the gas level sensor does not work, i have to calculate my mileage and have been stranded with no gas on the side of the highway twice while i was pregnant and had an infant in the trailblazer with me. not safe and i think that if there are as many people having the same issue there needs to be a recall. from what i have read chevy has not issued a recall, yet all of there 05 and 06 models have this same issue.

 First of all my fuel lever sensor went out. i only figured it out when i was in a busy shopping intersection and my vehicle just shut down. lucky for me no car rear ended me but one did come close. at the time as far i knew my car had over half a tank of gas in it. come to find out late it didn't. to my embarrassment i slowed and stopped traffic for close to an hour while i called for help and had to be towed. my machanic explained the problem (the fuel level sensor) and gave me two options get the part replace or keep track of the milage and gas i put in daily, because of the cost to replace the part plus labor i decided to keep track of the mileage instead of having it replaced. now i'm having a whole other issue i am only able to pump $10 of gas at a time because now my fuel pump went out also. when i pump gas my car thinks that it has gas when it doesn't. now i have no option but the get my car repaired for both issues of which i am doing this week. this is seriously ridiculous. i should not be having these issues with this new of a car. hopefully something is done about this issue.

 I have a 2006 chevy trailblazer and today after filling up the gas tank the fuel gauge malfunctioned and the engine light came on. the vehicle only has 35000 miles and has been well maintained since i bought it new. after doing a search online it seems that this happens to everyone that owns one of these vehicles and the repair ranges from $800 to $1100. if this is such a well known flaw, shouldn't there be a recall to have this corrected? i don't think that every consumer should be on the hook to correct an obvious design flaw. this is a potentially dangerous situation since there is no way to tell how much fuel is in the vehicle.

 My fuel level senor was replacement internet showing defects with part on the trailblazer and gm is not doing a recall but they know this is a defect
09/01/2009460001
 My 2006 chevrolet trailblazer has a defective fuel sensor. the fuel gauge constantly stays yellow - indicating empty - regardless of actual fuel level, causing me to use only my tripometer to gauge the amount of mileage i have left on a tank of fuel. it also causes the engine light to come on whenever i fill up. as my vehicle is out of warranty, the repair would cost approximately $1000 to fix an issue that i'm finding out is a prevalent issue with the several gm products - with no recourse through chevrolet. *tr
05/15/2009380001
 I have a 2006 chevy trailblazer, and the fuel gauge no longer works. when i fill up the gas tank, the gauge stays on empty and the low fuel light stays on. the check engine light will come on right after i fill up and it will go off at about 50 miles. it comes on again around 270 miles. i have ran out of gas twice, because the mileage wasn't reset after getting a few gallons of gas (someone else had put fuel in my trailblazer). i have not had it fixed, since it will cost over $800.00. so far there has not been any wrecks or injuries because of this safety issue. i hope something can be done before there is an accident. *tr
06/25/2009400001
 In my 2006 chevy trailblazer, the gas sensor does not work and caused the check engine light to come on intermittently as well as causing the fuel gauge to remain on empty regardless of the actual fuel level. i have had the car diagnosed and was informed that it was the sensor in the gas tank and the repair would cost me $500 to replace a part that would ultimately fail again. gm has refused to cover partial expenses of this repair even though they are aware of said problem. i first notified gm on 6/23/2009 and they have yet to issue a recall. there is currently an open investigation :action number dp10001. *tr

 I have had numerous problems out of my 2006 chevy trailblazer, but all have been covered under warranty up until this point. i purchased my vehicle new with 18 miles on it. it is currently at 42k and i am just outside of my warranty. i filled my car up twice this week and the fuel gauge showed full as i left the gas station. by the time i got home ( approx 1 mile away ) the low fuel indicator turned on. i took my car to the dealership and they indicated that my fuel gauge censor has gone. i took it to the dealership and they refuse to repair it free. the cost is $457.00. unfortunately it costs me about that much a month to keep the sucker gassed up so i cannot afford to 'give' gm any more of my money. i am driving it as it is and searching for a cheaper route to repair my vehicle. i have to children that i have to transport around and i am terrified that i will run out of gas. this is such an extreme and unnecessary stress. please help. *tr

 Filled my vehicle up with gas and my gas gauge reads low fuel. poor equipment is the cause this happened on a new suv and they should fix them. the cost is over $500.00 dollars i understand that maintenance is my responsibility but a new truck should not have issues such as these. also sometimes the transmission goes in neutral when i'm in drive and i lose power. the tech's cant find what the problem is. also a code for the purge valve is on and the dealer cant find the problem. please help . *tr

 I have had many many problems with my 2006 chevrolet trailblazer most recently the transmission is bad, i had started complaining to the dealer about the transmission slipping at around 8,000 miles, the truck now has 17,000 miles on it. the dealer refuses to repair it under my warranty. the dealer will not cover the repair. the dealer told me i had to pay out of pocket. i was informed of this on 5/4/2007. i have had many many repairs done on this vehicle, something is not right. the dealer also refuses to fix the brakes, the dealer claimed to have repaired them 3,000 miles ago and told me that it is not possible for the brakes to be bad again, the dealer said i need rotors, pads, and they did replace a lt ft caliper that they found to be bad. the dealer will not replace the pads and rotors. the dealer has told me to pick my vehicle up. the vehicle is currently not in safe condition to operate on public highway, i informed the dealer that i will leave the truck there while i contact nhtsa and whoever else i find that will help me. if the dealer insist that i remove my vehicle, i will have it towed, i will not operate the vehicle on public highways, as it is not safe. i will now list some of the items most recently replaced. also, abs , check engine, and service 4wd lite was on and off since january 2007. the gas gauge malfunctioned. the instrument panel was replaced twice, also replaced the radio, front heater, rear heater, dvd player, both upper ball joints, brakes, ft wheel bearing, lt ft door control, ft calipers, some kind of bearing in the steering wheel. the front suspension still makes noise, rattles (the dealer cannot find the problem) there is more but this is what i remember right now without looking it up. the dealer also told me that it is not possible for so many things to be wrong and has accused me of changing parts over from another trailblazer. *tr
