Here's another complaint about that so called "quality car" of mine. Now my AC goes out on me when were having one of the hottest heat wave ever. The temperature yesterday was about 110 in the shade and today was about 107. I couldn't pick up my 7 month old son from the sitter because of the heat. I had to have my wife pick him up with her air conditioned vehicle. I canvassed around and the average I got was about $700 to repair. They said that it could be the Blower Motor Resistor is burnt out and the harness (which would cost about $900). They said that this was another common problem for this car model. If I or someone else dies from heat exhaustion will they then recall this damn car? What else are they waiting for? I will definitely report this to www.nhtsa.gov and ODI (Office of Defects Investigation) or http://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov. If anyone else has a problem like me please report it so we can get our problems fixed.

I have a 2005 Trailblazer and the a/c blower thing went out. I cant even drive it, it makes such an awful noise! It will cost me about $600 to get fixed. My parents have the exact same vehicle, and the same thing happened to them not once BUT twice in one month!! A friend also has the same kind except a 2003, and the same thing is wrong with his...talk about JUNKS!!!!

I check all pertinent fuses but none were faulty. Checked to determine if another fuse was associated with the overall problem, everything checked out. I had a similar problem with an 98 Grand Prix whereby the blower only worked at the 5th position.

This is only beginning of problems. We had it fixed at the Chevy dealer we bought it from was under warranty. It was a resistor. Haven't had any more problems

My 2005 Trailblazer has been breaking down since I bought it. Replaced ac system 600.00.
Gas gauge stopped working, haven't got it fixed yet and my paint job is rusting even though my car is always in the garage and is washed and waxed regularly.

The blower motor has an intermittent problem...and dash lights (brake, abs, 4-wheel drive trouble) all come on. We took it in to the dealership. They replaced a wire harness, and charged over $400. Oh...and kept it for 4 days, but 2 days later the problem was back. I can't afford to take it in again for a temporary fix. The said they would fix it if we brought it back, but that there would be additional charges. I do not have any confidence that they can fix it, and I don't want to waste my money. So, I will be looking for another solution.

My AC blower motor went out, dealer told me i had to replace the motor. I paid $500 to do so. a week later the motor stopped again and this time i was told the resister/harness was bad and it need to be replaced. I wonder if the motor was ever bad ...

My blower stopped working on speed 5. We just ran it on 1 through 4 until it finally quit working at all. I got online and found the information on this website about a resistor and harness that seemed to fail frequently. Today, I took out the glove box and the blower and found the assembly directly behind the glove box. I bought a new resistor for 30 dollars at Auto Zone and tomorrow I am getting the harness. I think it will only cost me about $50 to fix this myself.
