problem #1

Sep 222004

Trailblazer 4WD 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 6,000 miles
The vehicle was 2 months old. It has not even had so much as an oil change or a flat tire. While driving the vehicle, the tie rod broke and forced me into a tree. I was going approximately 5-10 miles per hour. I was injured. GM is saying that the tie rod broke when I hit the tree, however the state trooper at the scene documented that the tie rod definately broke before hand and caused the accident. There are scrape marks in the roadway showing the tire dragging me to the tree. To date GM will not acknowledge a problem. If I had been going faster I could have been killed.
