“Came out of work 11:30 pm to find the drivers door window down on a rainy night. As I got close I could smell the elec./plastic fire smoke smell. My seat and floor were soaked from the rain. I could not put the window up and had to drive home wet. I had the dealer where I bought it check it out and was told the door module had melted from fire from a shot and was lucky the car did not burn. I have called Chevrolet assistance center about 5 times and was told I have to wait parts are not available.”

NHTSA complaint #10491782, filed 2013-01, 60,000 miles

“I purchased a brand new Chevrolet Trailblazer at the end of 2007. Since then, I have had multiple service issues with the car, most notably a faulty front axle that had to be replaced. In january 2009, my service 4wd light came on and I could not put my car into 4wd. I immediately took my car to the dealership, who could not find a problem and returned my car to me. A week later, I was driving my car in the snow in 4wd, getting ready to enter the highway, when the car stalled and the service 4wd light came on again. …”
