2 Air Bag On-off Switch problem of the 2007 Chevrolet Trailblazer

Failure Date: 07/08/2013

I can smell as if something burning, on different occasion. The headlights would ramdomly shut off, while driving. I would switch to high beam in order to see. The back hatch window, locks when it wants to. The airbag indacator lights come on and stay on awhile. The vehicle will stall and then accelerate at times. The tire pressure lights, does not come on when pressure is low. The check engine light comes on, and stay on awhile, and then goes off, and comes back on. The climate control heater system blows cold air. At one time the key would not come out of the ignition. Had to continue to giggle the key to get it out of ignition. Noticed my headlights did not come on when I used the remote entry to unlock or lock the door. The windows stall when going up or down. I have contacted gm , but they are telling me that my make,model and year are not part of the current recall. And that the letter they sent me, was to purchase warrenty for the vehicle. I feel that this vehicle is not safe due to this electrical problems.

4 Air Bag On-off Switch problem of the 2002 Chevrolet Trailblazer

Failure Date: 12/01/2002

Gm ignition switch recall needs to be expanded. My mother purchased a 2002 Chevrolet Trailblazer new. Approximately 5,000 miles into ownership, the car would "drop" various electrical components while driving down the road. For instance, while driving, the engine would continue to run, but the wipers would stop working, hvac would turn off, air bag and abs warning lights would illuminate, etc. Dealer had no idea how to fix. Eventually they replaced the ignition switch and the problem was solved. To my knowledge, gm never issued a recall, but I'm sure the issue is not isolated. These switches were unreliable across several vehicle lines, please investigate gmt 360 platform well.
