I was on my way to work at an ongoing traffic on the intersate and my 2007 Trailblazer security and engine lights came on. It started to slow down and the engine completely shuts off. This is a known issue and happens multiple times before, I took it to the dealership service department they said they fixed it and I was charged almost $300 dollars unfortunately it did not fix. This is the worst vehicle I've ever had quality of the vehicle is suck. I will never buy Chevrolet again!!!!.
Vehicle stalls and shuts down everyday. Sometimes just stalls then accelerates, sometimes shuts off and I can switch to neutral and restart while coasting. Other times I get shutdown warning light and engine will not restart. I have to coast to the shoulder and wait. Engine will then struggle to restart and engine shakes violently. I wait a few minutes and it will start and run fine, sometime with check engine light on, sometimes not. Rpm gauge works sometimes, sometimes not. At time there has been no response when turning key to start. On going issue!! crankshaft position sensor has been replaced 3 times, and issue still persist. Major safety issue!!.
My key will not come out of the ignition causing me to leave the keys in there.
My son in law was driving the car with my permission and while making a left turn the vehicle stalled; there was no steering or brakes. The steering wheel locked up during the turn and caused the vehicle to continue turning on it's own and I proceeded to hit a pole. The radio and lights were still on during this time, however, the engine shut off.
All of the lines on my vehicle (fuel, brake, power steering) have really bad rust corrosion. These will have to be replaced before there is a serious failure. The truck is only a 2007 and the lines look like it's a 1987.
The fuel gauage says full for a couple weeks then goes to empty with the light coming on even if I put a gallon of gas in it . It goes right back to full and stays there the steering also feels like any day something is going to happen to it and its making a loud screching sound thought it might be power steering the fluid is full.

I was starting to go up a hill at a speed of 56 mph and I swearved to miss a couple of skunks when the steering locked on the truck and I went into the ditch to the left and then rolled the truck three times. When the vechile was purchased in Nov 2010 I noticed the srs light was on and the dash light and his response was to bring it back for service after I made a pament, during the accident the airbags did not deploy and the towing company who came to get the truck they had to cut the battery out because they couldn't get the steering to unlock.
2007 trail blazer. When cruising at highway speeds the front end starts to shake violently and will coninue until the vehicle is brought to a stop. Then it will not do it again for as many as several hundred miles.
Usually when you are driving at highway speeds 55mph - 60 mph after approximately 15 minutes the steering wheel and whole front end start shaking really bad. It will last until you stop and then it will not do it again for 3 or 4 days and then it will do it again. If you try to brake during this occurrences the whole vehicle shakes even worse. Brought back to dealer (2) twice they could not verify problem.
