Trailblazer 4WD 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 22,600 miles
I bought an 05 Trailblazer ext I have had it 9 months, I went to start it and it would not turn over nothing, it was also stuck in the park position, dealership said I had a bad battery, I had it checked through auto zone was fine, had it towed the tow truck driver got it out of park and was able to start it. The dealership proceeded to say it was the battery so they changed it. I picked it up brought it home and parked in the driveway like before. The next morning it would not start again had it towed to the dealership with it stuck in park again, they now have said that the ignition switch was bad, which would cause it not to start and be stuck in park, so I guess we will see if it is fixed or if it will go back for the third time in one week.
