We own a 2006 chevy Trailblazer and since it had about 500 miles we started running into problems. The check engine light came on. Also the brakes make a whistling noise and chevy insists that it is not the service bulletin they have posted up regarding the front axle making a whistling noise. Also, the vehicle has problems with the way it steers on turns. This car has to be defective if this many problems occurred since 500 miles. It now has 1400 miles.
