| Check engine light come one code p0461 - fuel tank pressure sensor circuit high voltage. this problem seems to be a common problem with the chevy trailblazers and should be a recallable issue. furthermore, the suspension on this vehicle has been a financial drain from the sway bar links, front end links stabilizer shaft and ball joints. | |||

| Tl*the contact owns a 2006 chevrolet trailblazer. while driving 50 mph, the vehicle would vibrate. the vehicle was taken to the dealer on numerous occasions, but they could not produce any error codes or provide a sufficient remedy. in addition, the air bag warning indicator would sporadically illuminate on the instrument panel, which signified that the air bag was inoperative. if the passenger sensing system were to malfunction, the front air bag on the passenger side could be disabled when it should be enabled or vice versa. the risk of injury in the event of a crash was increased. the contact had aftermarket leather seats installed in her vehicle and called the manufacturer in reference to nhtsa campaign id number 06v417000 (air bags:frontal). she is currently awaiting their response. the failure mileage was 10,397 and current mileage was 29,439. | |||

| 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 | |||
