Transmission Failure
2005 Chevrolet Trailblazer (Page 2 of 2)
This problem may be covered under warranty. Ask your Chevrolet dealer.
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.

With less than 50,000 miles the transmission went out on the Trailblazer. Chevy customer services is denying any defects with the transmission and are unwilling to offer any assistance. I haven't ever hauled anything in the SUV aside from myself and an infant. This is ridiculous. I will never buy American again, let alone a Chevy. I now have to either pony up $3200 or find a new SUV.
