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.

While opening the rear passenger door, The handle became loose and it sounded like broken glass on the inside of the door. After further inspection, the inside of the handle was completely rusted through and I had to replace the entire handle and have it re painted. I keep my car clean as a whistle. I do drive it all year, but This is a poor design flaw and should be recalled. I know I'm not the only one who has had this problem. For as much as I have spent on this awesome truck, its annoying that I had to pay nearly $300.00 for a handle.
