1. my drivers side window and door lock is shorted out and wont operate at all. While driving causing the window to remain down during a rain storm and impeding my visibility. I see they have recalls on other years for this exact same problem. 2. my seat belt cathes really tight and wont release casusing me pain. 3. my headlights regular beams keep coming loose and blowing out.ive had to fix this three times and I have only owned the vehicle for a week. Twice during driving at night once I am not sure when it blew. 4. the front suspension is having problems and I believe may be a recall issue. It makes loud noise like its cracking or breaking, while driving.

#1. on 2 occasions last week, my Trailblazer suddenly lost most of its power, and the engine light reduced engine power came on! I pulled over, cut the car off, then restarted it, and was able to drive home. #2. the seat belts on the front passenger and rear right sides lock up tightly the moment you buckle up. It locks up so tightly that you cannot move if you wanted. These problems showed while driving on miami streets. #3. on 2 or 3 occasions a strong smell of gasoline came into the car while driving. The smell seemed to be coming from inside the back of the car, but I was unable to locate any gasoline back there. On another occasion, I smelled gas outside in the area of gas tank.

Since I've owned this vehicle "new", I've replaced the drive lights three times for burned cables also, the passenger side seatbelts locks while in motion. My local dealer informed me that, that was typical of the passenger safety device.....as a passenger, once you set down and put the seatbelt on, it locks, holding you too tight, and virtually choking the passenger!! all other seatbelts works fine. And still functions the same to this day.

The 2nd row center seat belt retract has locked into place the seat belt is fully reeled in and will not unlock. I researched this for the last 24 hours and come to find out hundreds of people are having the same issue with the middle seat in 2nd row not just the front passenger of Chevy Trailblazers 2002-2004 that was recalled previously. Either way this is a massive safety issue! seat belts are meant to last 30+ year before they even show any kind of wear and tear, not 11 years. Please issue the recall so we can safely strap our children into the back seat and not have to worry if the seat belt is going to maintain its function or not. Our children's lives are at stake here.

Passenger seat belt mechanism locks during normal driving conditions. I brought this to 2 different dealers on 1/25/06 and 1/13/07. Both dealers could not recreate the problem. I called Chevrolet customer service which acknowledged a seatbelt recall on 02 Trailblazers but claimed it does not cover my VIN. Chevy needs to extends this recall before serious injury occurs.

- Wayne, NJ, USA

We have not had any injuries, yet. The passenger seat belt locks up and will not release unless you take the seat belt off. I have contacted the Chevy recall #, but they did not resolve the issue. I did take the vehicle to the dealer when issued the recall, but they did nothing. I do have dated document that states the seat belt retractor needs to be replaced, but they would not replace it under the recall.

I have owned my Chevy Trailblazer since October 16, 2004. I am the second owner of the vehicle. I purchased this vehicle 6 months after a safety recall was issued on the seat belts on the driver and passenger sides of the vehicle. I have recently had a problem with the driver side seat belt it has extracted and will not retract. I took it to crystal Chevrolet in crystal river Florida for them to try and determine the problem. They have determined that it is the mechanisms inside the seat belt retractor. They told me that the system showed that the recall had already been done on this vehicle based on my VIN number. I was told that there was nothing that they would do for me unless I wanted to pay them $325 to repair it. I don't feel that this should be an expense I should incur due to the fact that the recall clearly states that when sent in for the recall it would only be replaced if necessary. I feel that at that time there may have not been a problem with it therefore it wouldn't have been replaced and now that I am having problems with I am told that it can't be repaired due to me not being the 1st owner and that it was already brought in to GM for this problem. This is clearly a safety issue that should be definitely taken care of on the behalf of GM. There is no proof that this vehicles problem was actually replaced at the time of the recall.

Consumer has problems with right front seat belt locking up. The problem has been happening since consumer bought the car. Consumer attempted to fix it 2 times. If consumer moves forward even an inch it locks up. Consumer has to unlatch seat belt to keep the seat belt from retracking.

It appears the truck is suffering from a major computer defect. With all fuses in tact, many functions no longer work (remote access, radio functions after ignition turn off, automatic volume increase on radio when accelerating). Additionally, the 4X4 torque converter switch does not light up and appears to be nonfunctional, the airconditioning quits and after alleged repair, stays on all the time regardless if set to air or vent, the rear hatch is defective and can't be opened, the tail lights have burnt out three times and two headlighrs have burnt out.

I have had numerous of problems with my 2002 Trailblazer. I have had to replace my rear tail light housing 3 times in the last year. I have also had to replace the clutch fan 3 times within 3 months. My hood keeps squeaking and has to be readjusted every other month. My instrument panel has gone out twice. The alarm also works when it wants to and the passenger side seat belt always locks up. On 6/13/03 it left finally left me stranded on the side of the road on the way to California. I live in Arizona and was traveling with my wife, mother-in-law and our 3 year old daughter. I had to pay for a rental car and had to submit to GM to reimburse me for the rental car. By reading all the complaints on these 2002 Trailblazers I think we should all get together and do a class act law suit towards GM. E-mail me with your thoughts. Jorgutierr5@aol.com.
