AND ALL THE GAUGES ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL (OIL PRESSURE, SPEEDOMETER, FUEL, AND TACHOMETER HAS STOP WORKING WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY MY GOD THAT WAS SCARY. ALSO, THIS HAS DRAIN THE BATTERY HAD TO REPLACE IT THE CLUSTER INSTRUMENT PANEL IS BEING REPLACE IT IS COASTING ME $580.00. I THINK THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE DUE TO THIS CAN CAUSE TRAFFIC ACCIDENT.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT CLUSTER/PANEL
I AM A MILITARY MEMBER AND HAVE BEEN BACK AND FORTH TO IRAQ AND AFGHANISTAN, I OWN A CHEVY TRAILBLAZER 2004, THE SPEEDOMETER HAS BEEN MESSED UP FOR SEVERAL MONTHS SHOWING 30 MPH AT A STOP AND CHANGING EVERY DAY TO A NEW SPEED. IT IS A VERY STRESSFUL KNOWING THAT YOUR SPOUSE IS IN THE STATES DRIVING A UNRELIABLE VEHICLE, ON TOP OF THE STRESS FROM THE DEPLOYMENT ITSELF. TO GET THIS FIXED ITS GOING TO COST 400-600 DOLLARS WHICH SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAID BY THE VEHICLE OWNERS SINCE IT IS A LARGE COMPLAINT FOR MOST OF THE CHEVY MODELS FROM 04-06. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THE SPEEDOMETER ON MY 2004 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER GIVES THE INCORRECT SPEED MOST OF THE TIME. WHEN I COMPARE THE SPEEDOMETER READING TO MY GPS, IT WILL SOMETIMES READ ANYWHERE FROM 10 TO 40 MILES PER HOUR TOO HIGH OR TOO LOW. THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE IS ALSO MALFUNCTIONING. I HAD A SIMILAR PROBLEM WITH MY 2003 CHEVROLET SILVERADO AND THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WAS REPLACED UNDER A RECALL. AT THIS TIME, NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED BY GM FOR MY 2004 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
WHY HAS CHEVY NOT INCLUDED THE 2004 TRAILBLAZER ON THEIR RECALL LIST WHEN THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE AROUND THE COUNTRY ARE POSTING PROBLEMS WITH THEIR INSTRUMENT CLUSTERS? MY ENTIRE PANEL GOES IN AND OUT BUT MOSTLY OUT. I NEVER KNOW IF I NEED GAS OR HOW FAST I AM GOING. SOME OF THE TIME EVERY LIGHT THAT IS BUILT IN THE DASH IS ON AT THE SAME TIME. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM THAT IS OCCURRING IN MANY OF CHEVY'S OTHER VEHICLES YET THEY WILL NOT ADD THE TRAILBLAZER TO THE RECALL LIST. PLEASE HELP THE PUBLIC IN THIS VERY IMPORTANT SAFETY ISSUE. THANK YOU. *TR
