FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
FILLED BY MY 2007 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER YESTERDAY AND THE FUEL GAUGE READS EMPTY AND THE FUEL LIGHT STAYS ON. TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT I MISSED THE WARRANTY BY 3,000 MILES AND IT WILL BE ALMOST $800 TO REPAIR. HAVE READ ONLINE THAT HUNDREDS OF CONSUMERS ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE SAME TYPE OF VEHICLE FROM 2005-2007 SO THERE IS OBVIOUSLY A DEFECT IN THE MANUFACTURE. THIS NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO AND HANDLED, IT IS OBVIOUS THE DEALER NEEDS TO RECALL THESE VEHICLES AND CORRECT THE PROBLEM. *TR

2007 TRAILBLAZER FUEL GAUGE READS EMPTY EVEN AFTER FUELING. RESEARCH SHOWS IT IS A PREVALENT FAILURE IN THIS MODEL. MONITORING THE ODOMETER IS THE ONLY WAY TO ESTIMATE REMAINING FUEL. IT CAN BE DANGEROUS NOT KNOWING CORRECT AMOUNT OF FUEL REMAINING. *KB

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
FUEL GAUGE FLUXUATES YOU NEVER KNOW HOW MUCH YOU HAVE IT WILL SHOW YOU HAVE A FULL TANK IT MAY BE HALF OR EMPTY, IT MIGHT SHOW EMPTY AND WILL FLOAT ANY PART OF THE GAUGE QUARTER OR HALF FULL. THIS COULD CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT, AT ONE TIME WE THOUGHT WE HAD A HALF TANK OF GAS AND RAN OUT OF GAS ON AN INTERSTATE FORTUNATELY WE PULLED OFF SIDE OF ROAD AND WALKED TO GET GAS WE WERE OUT OF GAS. THE ONLY WAY TO KNOW YOU HAVE GAS IS TO KEEP A CHECK WITH ODOMETER READING. THE LOW FUEL LIGHT WILL COME ON AND THEN MILES LEFT WILL COINCIDE WITH THE LOW FULL LIGHT BUT YOU MAY HAVE GAS IN THE VEHICLE. IT IS NEVER CONSISTENT. I WILL STAY AT A CERTAIN READING FOR SEVERAL MINUTES OR SO THEN YOU DON'T KNOW WHICH WAY IT WILL GO. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE. IT HAS ONLY 37,582 MILES OR SO. WE BOUGHT IT OFF A FRIEND WHEN HIS WIFE PASSED AWAY, HE BOUGHT IT NEW. *TR
