Problems with 2004 Chevrolet TrailBlazer FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER

Tl* the contact owns a 2004 chevrolet trailblazer. while driving 45 mph, the contact detected a fuel odor coming through the vents. the contact mentioned that the check engine indicator illuminated prior to the failure. the contact also stated that the instrument panel did not illuminate and the speedometer did not operate. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where the contact was informed that the fuel pressure regulator needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the dealer and manufacturer were not made aware of the failures. the failure mileage was 153,000.

Fuel gauge has been fluctuating wildly for a couple of months, generally reading empty (even after fill up) but occasionally full (when a fill up is needed). dealer said fuel gauge sensor was bad & that it would be approx $900 to fix. looking into the problem online i see there are thousands of people with the same problem. *js

2004 chevy trailblazer fuel gauge not working it goes around in circles does not measure fuel and has caused vehicle to run out of gas, the gauge started measuring incorrectly, then moving from full to empty going in circles now its stuck arrow pointing downward, my family and i were lucky that the vehicle behind us was not speeding or else he would have slammed into the back of our suv and caused a serious accident. *kb

Instrument panel failure, ran out of gas on a busy four lane highway during morning rush hour. i was in the left hand lane and was unable to move to the shoulder. i now became a major traffic problem until some nice citizen helped me push the truck out of harms way, having to stop both lanes of traffic so i could cross. had i a working gas gauge i feel this would not have happened, none of the instruments in the vehicle work, chevy has recalled other models of this year with the same problems,but not the trailblazer. why? *kb

2004 chevy trailblazer 4wd fuel gauge not accurate, going from f-e while driving after filling with gas. from online research this is the fuel sender problem that is a wide problem from all trailblazers. *tr

My 2004 chevrolet trailblazer developed a leaking fuel tank and i keep getting "service engine" lights. i understand there have been many complaints however gm has not called for a recall. this is a serious safety hazard and appears to be a common problem. reference complaint #05012. *tr

I own a 2004 chevy trailblazer and the speedometer has progressively gotten to the point of being completely inoperable. the first time i noticed the speedometer read 120 mph when i was driving on the highway were the speed limit was 55 mph and i was driving with the flow of the traffic. i turned the car off and the speedometer still read 50mph. as of a month ago my fuel, oil, battery, and temp gauge are all inop; the needles never move. with this my battery, seatbelt, abs, and parking park stay illuminated. this is a safety concern because i never know how fast i'm going, how much fuel i have, if my car is running hot, i have no warning indication of anything going on with my vehicle. *tr

The gas hand and the tachometer are not accurately calculating. the gas hand is halfway between the e and the f (at the 6 on a clock) when the tank is full and various times of the day, it moves all over the dial. *tr

Bought a 2004 chevy trailblazer and fuel gauge is not working on it. quit right after we bought it. we had also bought a 2000 chevy silverado in 2004 fuel gauge went out on it, it has the electronic sensor/sending unit built onto the fuel pump. fuel pump works great just the sensor is broke. what is with these on the chevrolets. i have heard of others with same issue on their chevrolets. *tr

Daily failure of seedometer on my 2004 chevrolet trailblazer. this was in addition to failure of the fuel gauge. the speedometer problem was inconsistent and made me question the actual speed at every moment and made me measure based on other traffic. it is a very distracting way to drive with all gauges moving at times and then returning to a fixed setting. i had the clusterboard replaced by the dealer who claimed this was not a common problem. instrument panels on 3 year old cars do not fail unless there is a manufacturing problem. please prevent accidents in the future this is not a safe way to operate a vehicle. *tr

I bought a chevy trailblazer in march of 2004, brand new. in november 2004 i smelled a strong odor of gas fumes and took it to the dealership for repairs, they fixed the gas odor, but it did occur to me that my trailblazer may have been causing the severe headaches i had been having since march of 2004. my headaches did decrease in frequency then cease after i quit driving the trailblazer. my husband then started driving the trailblazer. after some discussion about the possibility of carbon monoxide poisoning, he was tested and the lab results did confirm that he was toxic. my trailblazer now sits in the driveway and i keep making payments on a vehicle that poisoned me and my family. general motors has been notified and they do not care. please, please help me with this situation.
