ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I AM EXPERIENCING ALL ISSUES IDENTIFIED WITH RECALL DUE TO DOOR SWITCH SENSOR BEING DEFECTIVE. INTERMITTENT WORKING OF DOOR LOCKS NOT LOCKING OR LOCKING AND WON'T UNLOCK . WINDOWS WON'T WORK SOMETIMES, AND SOMETIMES THEY WILL . LIGHTS WON'T SHUT OFF IN INTERIOR, OR WON'T GO ON . DELAY FEATURE WHERE RADIO , AND OTHER FEATURES STAY ON AFTER TURNING IGNITION OFF , AND STILL IN VEHICLE WON'T WORK , AND SOMETIMES DO WORK . THESE THINGS HAPPEN WHEN VEHICLE IS EITHER MOVING, OR NOT MOVING IN PARK . THEY HAPPEN BOTH CITY DRIVING, AND HIGHWAY AS WELL. ALL OF THESE CRAZY ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS BEGAN SEVERAL MONTHS AGO, AND WHEN IN THE VEHICLE AND I AM IN PARK, AND SHUT OFF IGNITION, AND THE DOORS WON'T UNLOCK, THE KEY FOB WON'T WORK TO UNLOCK DOORS EITHER, AND I AM TRAPPED INSIDE VEHICLE UNTIL SOMEONE IS CLOSE ENOUGH TO HEAR ME YELLING FOR HELP, AND CAN HAND THEM MY KEYS OUT OF SUNROOF IN ORDER TO PUT IT INTO LOCK ON THE DOOR AND MANUALLY UNLOCK THE DOOR. I ABSOLUTELY MUST HAVE THIS FIXED BECAUSE NOBODY NEAR MY RESIDENCE TO EITHER LET ME OUT OF VEHICLE, OR TO CALL . CLOSEST PERSON I CAN CALL IS OVER AN HOUR AWAY . I AM ON DISABILITY OF 720.00 A MONTH AND CAN'T AFFORD THIS REPAIR .

SERVICE BRAKES, VISIBILITY/WIPER
THE ABS LIGHT HAS COME ON AND THEN IT WOULD WORK SOMETIMES AND NOT OTHER TIMES. NOW IT NEVER WORKS. NOW THAT ITS WINTER I'M SLIDING AT STOP SIGNS THAT AREN'T EVEN THAT SLIPPERY. THE ACTUATORS IN THE HEATING AND COOLING ARE NOT WORKING PROPERLY. ALL SUMMER I HAD HEAT BLOWING ALL THE TIME AND SUDDENLY THERE WOULD BE NOTHING. NOW IT'S COLD AIR ALL THE TIME. MAKES MY WINDOWS FOG UP AND NOT DEFROST. I HAVE DONE THE RESET PROCEDURE AND HEAR THINGS MOVING BUT IT DOESN'T FIX IT. THE BLOWER IN THE BALL SEAT AND THIRD ROW IS HIT OR MISS FOR EVEN WORKING AT ALL.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I HAVE A 2006 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER WITH ONLY A LITTLE OVER 80,000 MILES ON IT. I HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH THE STABILITRAK SYSTEM. I WILL GET READ OUTS ABOUT THE STABILITRAK NEEDS TO BE SERVICED OR THE STABILITRAK HAS KICKED IN WHEN IT HASN'T. THE STABILITRAK WILL TRY TO IN GAUGE FOR NO APPARENT REASON WHEN APPLING THE BRAKES. IT HAPPENS WHEN I AM BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY, COMING TO A STOP OR JUST APPLYING THE BRAKES TO SLOW DOWN. IT HAPPENS ON ALL TYPE OF ROAD SURFACES. THIS HAPPENS WHEN IT IS BRIGHT AND SUNNY OUTSIDE, ON DRY ROADS, HIGHWAYS, STREETS, DIRT ROADS AND DAY OR NIGHT. IT DOES IT AT FAST SPEEDS AND VERY LOW SPEEDS. IT MAKES A STRANGE NOISE WHEN THIS HAPPENS HOWEVER THE STABILITRAK DOESN'T FULLY IN GAUGE. THE REPAIR SHOP LOOKED AT IT AND TOLD ME THAT THEY THINK THE COMPUTER MODAL IS NOT COMMUNICATING WITH THE STABILITRAK SYSTEM. THIS STARTED A FEW WEEKS AGO. SO I'M NOT SURE HOW THIS WILL AFFECT THE BRAKES WHEN DRIVING ON THE SNOW AND ICY ROADS. I HAVE SEEN OTHER COMPLAINTS ON THE SAME TYPE OF ISSUES.
