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.

rear window hinge released/unbound from window

Insurance will not cover it because it's manufacturer default or poor engineering. tried to have repaired at That in IF. Idaho. They used their best bond to reattach hinge to window. Last less than 1 wk. Looks like New window with factory hinges installed will be around $1800. Plusses replacement / repairs of overhead Cowling!

THIS SHOULD BE A FACTORY RECALL. POOR ENGINEERING, FAILURE IS BROUGHT ON BY CONSTANT PRESSURES APPLIED TO HINGES!!!
