Last summer the windows on my Trailblazer started acting up. Sometime would work, sometimes not. Seem to be affected by the weather, if it was raining. Would stop working all together if it was raining, then would start to work, when it had dried up. I received a notice on a safety recall for my vehicle, but when I called into the dealership, they said that it was not covered since I had not registered in a list of the northern states. I know for a fact that this vehicle was manufactured and driven for at least three years in one of the northern states. Why would it matter if I had registered it here or there. There is still a safety issue with the window module. The recall should follow the vehicle not the registered owner.

I have a 2006 Trailblazer and a few weeks ago my driver side control panel stopped working. Could not use my remote to open the door and was unable to put any windows down. I thought there was a short in the wires somewhere because the next day the panel worked. Now, two weeks later I stopped at the store and was getting out of the car and again I could not lock my doors using the button on the control panel. I left the door unlocked and when I came out (within minutes) my door window had gone down on its own while I was in the store. When I got into the car, my daughter and I could smell something burning. She immediately made me go to the garage and have her mechanic check it out. He was able to remove the panel and showed us where the plastic part that goes inside the handle had melted and could have caused a fire in the car. He called around to try and find a replacement part and was finally able to find one and was quoted over $300 for just the part!! then, I had to set up an appointment with the dealer to have it installed because it has to be programmed to my car and I was quoted about $103 for installation!!!! I can not believe this problem has not been listed as a recall after reading all the complaints with the same problem. I plan on getting a phone number from the dealer for the GM corporate office to file an automotive complaint tomorrow. I hope to be reimbursed for this part and the labor charge. This sounds like a serious safety issue to me and thank goodness my car did not start on fire while I was driving.

While on vacation in NY I went to move my Trailblazer to be able to pack up for the trip home and when moving it I noticed a strong smell of electrical fire and noticed smoke coming from the area around the drivers door master window switch. I quickly turned the truck off and pulled the switch plate out of the door but it was to late. The damage had already been done. The switch had shorted and melted all of the ribbon cable in the switch and rendered it inoperable. There was a slight misty rain when all of this occurred, I am just glad it happened in the driveway and not on the highway. I called and talked with Chevy and they told me there was no recall for this and there was nothing they could do to help and then stated that it was VIN specific. So which is it no recall or VIN specific?

After a recent rainstorm, windows will not work from driver side window switch. Windows will go down and come right back up. They now are working intermittently. Sometimes they will go down and not come up, or go down and come right back up. Very dangerous, especially with kids if they like to put their hands out the window while your driving and it goes up on them; it's possible they could get their hands stuck and cause serious injury.

While driving down city road, I began to smell a burnt smell. I looked to my left and saw a little wisp of smoke from my driver side power window switches. I immediately stopped, shut off vehicle, popped the hood and disconnected the power to my battery. I called a friend who is a mechanic and he took out the switch cluster. Opened the cluster and saw a burnt mark on the bottom left of circuit board. It will need to be replaced. Pictures received 06/25/12 updated 06/29/2012
