 During the course of this ea investigation, odi observed that the majority of the complaints (88%) and warranty claims (94%) were reported for vehicles that are registered for use in the salt belt region of the us.this area includes 20 states in the northeast, mid atlantic and the midwest regions and the district of columbia.consumers in the salt belt region reported to odi that they could smell fuel vapors in their vehicles while driving.upon further examination of their vehicles, they discovered that fuel vapors were coming out of the top of the fuel tank. this condition is caused by corrosion of the return and sender lines of the fuel pump module.water and road salt collect on top of the fuel pump leading to small pinholes appearing on the fuel lines.fuel may leak and collect on top of the module and/or spill onto the ground.the data evaluated under this investigation reflect a relatively low frequency of occurrence that largely arises in salt belt states.gm has extended the warranty on the subject component to ten years or 120,000 miles.further use of agency resources does not appear to be warranted at this time; accordingly, this investigation is closed.the closing of this investigation does not constitute a finding by nhtsa that no safety-related defect exists.the agency reserves the right to take further action if warranted by the circumstances.for additional information select document search.

 In 2010 my trailblazer would not idle or accelerate properly, the mechanic found the primary smog air pump not working. cost to me $720.00. next the instrument cluster gauges started jumping around and now the speedometer does not work at all. estimated cost to me $480.00, i can't afford to fix it.. thirdly the windshield wipers go on and off without warning. i went to a dealership and a private mechanic and neither could find the wiper problem. cost to me $68.00 for diagnostic time and lots of danger ahead. similar gm vehicles/ suv's have been recalled for the same reasons, and these vehicles all share similar parts. my daughters envoy was recalled because of the instrument cluster, replaced at no cost to her. same instrument cluster as my trailblazer. i candidly spoke with the owner of a chevy dealer ship who said; these problems are costing the owners thousands of dollars and should be recalled.with all the research i've done it is clear the trailblazer is loaded with recallable problems. why has the trailblazer not been recalled??? *tr

 Ever since 50k on my trailblazer, the fuel gauge was been inaccurate. i will look at the guage and it will be at 1/2 of a tank and just 20 miles later its at 1/4. then it might go back up to 1/2. it would go away sometimes and come back but now it is back for sure, and will not go away. i tried another cluster in my trailblazer just to make sure it was not the gauge its self. it must be the fuel gauge senser in the tank its self. it is getting to be a problem. i have run out of gas twice now. once while on hill, in a very extremely hilly area in ohio. the second time was on the freeway. both times were dangerous as i was on the middle lane of the free way when it happened and, at the bottom of a blind hill the second time.
