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.

Several problems w/ my 2005 chevy trailblazer!!! a/c compressor out, fuel gauge out, fuel sending unit out, speedometer not working, pulley system had to be replaced. All these problems seem to be VERY common on chevy trailblazer there should be several recalls on this awful vehicle, wish I would have researched way more before buying.
