1 Power Door Locks Not Working problem of the 2007 Chevrolet Trailblazer

Failure Date: 08/05/2014

I had the recall for the door window master control taken care of about 9 months- 1 year ago. Today, the window or door lock did not work on the driver's side. When I attempted to try the power mirror adjust, the window went down and smoke came from the door panel. I contacted gm and they told me it was pretty much tough luck because they already took care of the recall. I was told that I could take it to a gm dealer to have it fixed but I would have to pay for it. Really? I'm guessing the module was bad and corroded when I took it in for the recall. The recall states that if the window works, seal the problem area and send them on their way. At the time of the recall, the window and other components did work but now the original problem is showing up. I was not allowed to watch recall work being done but obviously this problem resulted from liquid leaking in at one time and causing damage. It just took for today to show up and cause a problem. My interior stinks of burnt plastic. My window is partially down and can not be adjusted. I've read online forums consisting of the same symptoms that I experienced today with my Trailblazer. If this was just a random problem or something caused from my use or negligence, I would man up and take care of this on my own. . . But it's not. Gm used a band aid to take care of this problem and somebody will end up getting hurt or burned yet. I have a prosthetic leg and what if the door locks were locked shut and the thing started on fire? gm listened as I bitched about it but didn't have much to offer for a solution. I will take it to a local Chevrolet dealer for their "diagnosis" on a faulty switch and workmanship. It will be interesting to hear what they have to say. I'm very disappointed in what happened today and the stench in my vehicle. I don't want anybody to get hurt but that seems to be the way anything gets solved.
