Headlights problems of the 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer - part 1

Engine will shut off going down the road then after several minutes it will start again. Also I have had the headlights go out driving at night they will suddenly go out.

My low beam headlights suddenly stopped working. I still have high beams, marker lights, but not low beam. The vehicle was stationary at the time that I noticed the problem.

The airbag deactivated light on the dash cluster comes on and off but mostly stays on now. No codes showing the cause. While driving both low beam headlights suddenly turned off, later diagnosis showed an electrical issue that melted both low beam light connectors and wires at the bulb end, new connectors were installed. Two different times within 1yr the heater blower motor relay has gotten hot enough to melt the connector and burn out the relay, connector replaced twice and currently melting again as fan speed 1, 4, and 5 have again stopped working. Heater blower motor also replaced twice concurrent with relay.

Headlights went out driving them came back on then off again. Went to the dealer for known recall 14291 and said my specific Trailblazer is not listed for the recall. This is very dangerous as I was driving in the dark for many miles. I should be reimbursed for any fixes as gm knows there is a problem not sure why it's only to specific Trailblazers and not all from 2006-2007.

Headlight and daytime running lamps go out completely. It can happen at any time wheter it is stationary or while driving. When driving at night headlight lamps go out completely making it unsafe.

Ref:14v755000 per hte above recall, as previously submitted I had replaced the headlight bulbs at least 4 times in a 1 1/2 year period. The last time the right headlight did not illuminate I left it as is awaiting a fix. On or about the first of this month we came out of an establishment after dark and as I started to drive off it became apparent that neither low beam lights were lit. I had no choice but to drive home with high beams on, creating a safety condition for oncoming traffic as it probably blinded them. I once again installed 2 new headlight bulbs. It is apparent that gm does not consider this safety problem as being serious as they have not made a fix for it. Perhaps you should hit them with a million dollar fine to get their attention to get this safety item corrected. We are perhaps fortunate because I was the one driving and not the wife on a dark country road and it suddenly burnt out. You have now been notified twice, in the event someone becomes injured because of this deflect I of course will use these advisements to you in court proceedings.

While driving down the highway at night the headlights just went out almost went off road because it happened on a slight turn to the right. Luckily it was a median divided road and I was in the left lane so I was able to pull over and stop. They came back on after about ten minutes of sitting while looking under hood and everywhere else trying to remedy the problem.

While driving down the road after dark my low neam headlights went out. This has happened several times. I was looking for an air conditioner part online and stumbled across the recall. Recall number 14v755000. The recall was issued in November of 2014. It os now June of 2015, they have had enough time to haveremedy. Is there anything I can do to get something done with my vehicle. . . A refund?? a temporary fix?? anything at all?.

The low beam headlights would not come on. I contacted good chevy in renton, wa on Saturday 3-14-15, about getting it fixed and they said I would have to pay for it as the recall parts were not out yet. I told them I had a letter from gm that said they would replace the headlight driver module with the same as it had and when the new module comes out they would replace it for free. They insisted that I pay for diagnosis and parts and would be reimbursed at a later time when the recall was performed. I diagnosed the problem my self and purchased the headlight control module and replaced it my self. My wife drives the car to work and leaves the house at 4:30 am and she needs the headlights to work. The NHTSA campaign id number is 14v-755. Gm recall number is 14291. The letter states all this will be done free of charge.

Shortly after having the power control module replaced & reprogrammed through a certified shop, the daytime runners/low beam headlights began working/failing intermittently. We noticed the daytime runner lights would stop working/turn off and only sometimes turn back on. The low beam headlights turned off while we were driving to the store and we had to use the brights the rest of the way there and whole way back home.

The drivers side low beam headlight was not working. When my dad opened the hood there was an aroma of burning wire. My dad removed the rubber cap for the low beam headlight and found the plastic electrical connector to the low beam bulb was burnt and charred. My dad removed the connector in order to avoid a fire. I contacted gm customer service and they informed me that there was not a current recall for my VIN number and that I would have to take it to a dealer for repair. I contacted a dealer and they informed me that the repair could run hundreds of dollars and they could not confirm that the problem would not happen again.

Lights start dimming while driving. Passenger side headlight and rear lights keep burning out. Replaced headlight twice within a year plug was melted. Number 4 on the air conditioner/heater control has gone out twice. Clutch fan has been replaced 4 times in the last 3 years. Code says on high speed. Water pump has been replaced 3 times and continues to leak after a few months. All have been on highway or in city driving.

My vehicle was recalled Nov 24, 2014 for it's low beam headlights. The NHTSA recall number is 14v755. Gm still has not found a remedy to this. They make many models of vehicles, all of which have headlights, so why they have been unable to develop a solution after 17 months is very disturbing.

While driving on a freeway at night the low beam headlights suddenly went out. I was unable to get them to come on again and had to drive 15 miles in traffic with the high beam lights on. I checked the lamps, sockets, fuses and wiring. No problems were found, so I replaced the low beam headlight relay. The low beam lights continue to intermittently fail. After parking the car the headlights begin working again. The dealer and gm say there is a recall in the works for some 2006 Trailblazers, but my VIN is not included. Gm needs to expand this pending recall to cover all affected vehicles.
