As I was driving my 2008 Trailblazer the steering wheel completely froze on me and I could not turn the vehicle in any direction. I ended up driving it into someones yard before I could get it stopped. After having it taken to a garage they told me my power steering lines etc were blown. They have since fixed this issue, very costly to me though, and then they informed me that while checking the vehicle out they found my transmission lines are very corroded. So that is the next issue to be fixed with this vehicle.
Power steering lines corroded and leaking at/from rubber mount on l wheel well.
Vehicles stabilitrac light comes on constantly. Repair listed for code is not the problem. Had same issue with my 2006 Trailblazer. Light comes on sporadically, even when backing out of my driveway at low rate of speed.

The accelerator pedal had to be depressed several times before the vehicle reacted. In addition, the stability traction control warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer. The technician diagnosed that the steering angle sensor had failed. The vehicle was repaired but the failure persisted. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The VIN was unavailable.

While driving at freeway speeds,front wheels went into a speed wobble,I lightly applied the brakes and it became worse. I took the Trailblazer to the michelin tire dealer and he found nothing wrong with the balance or run-out on the tires,so I then took the car to the dealership, and they could not find any problem.
