CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2002-2007 Chevrolet Trailblazer is known for many things, but perhaps it is most famous for its faulty fuel gauge.
This gauge flip-flops more than a politician during election season. Some report that the gauge says "empty" after a fill-up, while others report the gauge says "full" when they're running on fumes. Either way, there's one thing everyone seems to agree on: the darn thing is just wrong.
Following hundreds of complaints and a few accidents allegedly caused by the malfunction, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) opened an investigation into the issue in May 2011. Unfortunately for frustrated owners, no recall has been announced.

We have a 2005 Trailblazer and this will be the 3rd time the blower motor has "gone out" for the heater. It was about 20 degrees and my husband had to replace it out in the driveway. Worked fine in about 5K more miles it quit again so he just replaced the "plug" for it, but now it doesn't go to the high setting. Getting tired of this. When the heater and AC worked properly it really worked well. This must be a factory defect for it to be happening so frequently.
