We have classified the 72 complaints from 2005 Chevrolet TrailBlazer about VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL into the following categories.
Speedometer first showed speed of 60 when sitting still. i turned off the engine, restarting it 3 times and the speedometer reset. but a few days later it once again stuck and i had just started it. this time at 48 at all times whether the engine is on or off, idling of traveling. it continues to be stuck at 48 at all times, never decreasing or increasing.
Driving in city speedomoter quit working properly. dont know what speed is while driving car has 33000 miles, has not been driven in 3 years as it was my fathers and he no longer drives as he is 97 years old
Instrument panel cluster doesn't work and i don't even know my speed
I can't tell if my tank is full or empty
Rpm, gas, and voltage meter are not reading properly at all. everywhere u go everytime u start the truck up it does not read properly.
Car will not accelerate. revs up really high without acceleration.
The speedometer has become unreliable; it sticks / jerks while driving after which it does not display an accurate speed. i've had my speedometer read 30mph while completely stopped. it has a greater tendency to stick around 50-60mph. repeatedly starting the engine, causing the speedometer to go through its reset cycle will move the needle back to 0mph in approximately 5mph increments for every start. this only provides a bit of reliability for short trips.
The speedometer doesnt work.
The airbags will show that they're not enabled even with a passenger sitting in the seat.then it would come on as being on but no passenger in seat. a lot of sensors have popped up in the electrical panel, on top of that the car kinda shut down on me and started going 10 miles per hour, as i was going out in traffic.
The speedometer gets stuck on a speed and the only way to get it back down to 0 is by turning the engine on and off several times. this has happened to me several times in the last few months. from my research on this it appears this is happening to many many people but nothing gets done about it. it seems to me like it should be a recall to get it fixed.
The speedometer in my car started not working a week ago.. it would say i was going 70 and in reality i was only going 55. now it starts out at 110mph when i start driving....making it really difficult to know how fast/slow i am going. i have read many articles of this happening with this make and model of vehicle. *tr
Dash controls and readings all go out. speedometer does not show speed. oil pressure gauge does not read correctly. *tr
Speedometer stopped working a few times until it completely has gone dead and doesn't work at all. my trailblazer also has stalled if stopped at a red light more than once. *tr
Tl*the contact owns a 2005 chevrolet trailblazer. the contact stated that while driving at 35 mph, the accelerator pedal was released but the speed failed to decrease. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the vin was unavailable. the approximate failure mileage was 127,000. djr
We were driving at about 55 (we don't know exact speed as our control panel is not working) and the steering went out. it was hard pulling to the right and a few times we could not control it and went off the road. we had another incident like that when we were driving in the snow. when we purchased the car we had a fuel issue that covered under a recall.... now our whole panel is out. we don't know the speed we are going, the oil light and engine light are always on. we take care of our car so we know its not low on anything. *tr
