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.
It's ridiculous that on several occasions as we are driving down the interstate we have to hear this loud tapping sound on the roof of the vehicle and know that the dumb strip has come off again! First time this happen? Was my first trip out of town right after I purchased the vehicle. Took it back to be looked at by the dealership and supposedly they fixed it - Apparently not!!! Not only do I think it is very annoying but am very displeased at the fact that Chevy can't assemble a vehicle worthy of purchasing. I'm a consumer and I know I will not every purchase a Chevy again!!!!!!!!
