2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer Lighting Problems

The headlamps have quit working when driving at night but will come back on later. This has happened several times. I found GM recall number 14291 that is supposed to include 2006 Chevy Trailblazers and pertains to this problem. The local dealership told us that our vehicle has a vin number that is not covered. It would seem that all model 2006 Chevy Trailblazers would use the same HDM modules in them when they were built. Is ours covered?

Just need a recall sheet for shipping vehicle.

LOW BEAMS SOMETIMES FLICKER ON AND OFF AND THEN AT NIGHT WHILE IM DRIVING THEY WILL JUST GO OUT AND STAY OUT.

While driving both low beam headlights turned off. This has now happened on more than one occasion.

Low beam headlights stop working, when driving at night. This problem is happening frequently.

WHILE DRIVING ON SEVERAL OCCATIONS DURING THE DAY OR NIGHT. THE FRONT DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS AND OR THE FRONT HEADLAMPS JUST SHUT OFF. THIS HAS HAPPENED DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND JUST SITTING AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT. VERY DANGEROUS AT NIGHT!!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS AT A STAND STILL WHEN SHE NOTICED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS WERE NOT FUNCTIONING AS DESIGNED. THE CONTACT STATED HER HUSBAND REPLACED BOTH LOW BEAM BULBS. THE CONTACT STATED SHE CONTINUED TO EXPERIENCE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE THE DRIVER HEADLIGHT MODULE WAS REPLACED. THE CONTACT CALLED HERITAGE CHEVROLET BUICK OWINGS MILLS LOCATED AT 11234 REISTERSTOWN RD, OWINGS MILLS, MD 21117, (866) 730-3826, AND THE DEALER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD BEEN INFORMED OF FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 208,863.

MY LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS SUDDENLY STOPPED WORKING. I STILL HAVE HIGH BEAMS, MARKER LIGHTS, BUT NOT LOW BEAM. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AT THE TIME THAT I NOTICED THE PROBLEM.

DAYLIGHT/HEADLIGHTS SOMETIMES DO NOT TURN ON UPON STARTING TRUCK AND ALSO HAVE SHUT OFF SEVEN DIFFERENT TIMES WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT FORCING ME TO DRIVE WITH FOG LIGHTS AND HIGH BEAMS ON ENDANGERING NOT ONLY THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC, BUT MY FAMILY WHICH INCLUDES A 5 AND 9 YEAR OLD CHILD. AS STATED IN THE RECALL AND WHICH IS THE EXACT ACTION OCCURRING NOT EVERY TIME BUT (7 TIMES)1 TIME ALONE IS ENOUGH TO BE A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN TO ME AND MY FAMILY, THE HEADLAMP DRIVER MODULE (HDM) MAY OVERHEAT AND FAIL, CAUSING THE HEADLAMPS AND DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS TO NOT ILLUMINATE.THIS IS THE RECALL ON THIS ISSUE CURRENTLY WHICH 2006-2007 CHEVY TRAILBLAZERS, YET HENDRICKS CHEVY SAYS THAT MY VEHICLE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE ESPECIALLY WHEN MY FAMILY?S SAFETY AND LIVES ARE SERIOUSLY IN DANGER EVERY TIME WE TRAVEL OR DRIVE AT NIGHT DUE TO THE RECURRING ISSUE OF THE LIGHTS NOT BEING RELIABLE AT ALL TIMES OF TURNING ON DUE TO AN OVERHEATING ISSUE, THAT ONCE AGAIN IS OCCURRING IN THESE MODELS YET MY VIN IS NOT A PART OF THE RECALL. THE MOST RECENT OCCURRENCE OF THIS ISSUE WAS ON JULY 12, 2019! PLEASE ADDRESS THIS ISSUE TO HAVE OTHER VIN NUMBERS APART OF THIS RECALL WITH WHOM EVER NECESSARY SO MY FAMILY?S SAFETY AS WELL AS OTHER DRIVER?S SAFETY ARE NOT AT RISK EVERY TIME WE GET INTO OUR 2006 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER! AGAIN THE MAIN ISSUE AT HAND IS HEADLAMPS THAT DO NOT ILLUMINATE REDUCE THE DRIVER'S ABILITY TO SEE THE ROADWAY AND REDUCE THE VEHICLE'S VISIBILITY TO ONCOMING VEHICLES, BOTH OF WHICH INCREASE THE RISK OF A VEHICLE CRASH. REGARDS, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

BREAK LIGHTS ARE NOT LIGHTING UP BUT LIGHT BLUBS ARE GOOD SOMETHING TO DO WITH WIRING WITH BREAK LIGHTS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS FLICKERED WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT AND WERE A SAFETY HAZARD. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HENDRICKS CHEVROLET (1620 MONTGOMERY HWY, HOOVER, AL 35216, (205) 545-8072) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT NEW HEADLIGHTS NEEDED TO BE INSTALLED. THE DEALER CLAIMED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 88,445. THE VIN WAS INVALID.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH, THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT. THE CONTACT CONTINUED DRIVING WITH THE HIGH BEAM HEADLIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO VAN CHEVROLET (8585 E FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT BLVD, SCOTTSDALE, AZ 85260) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE HEADLAMP MODULE SENSOR WAS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND STATED THAT THE VIN WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V519000 (EXTERIOR LIGHTING). THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 87,232.

HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT DRIVING THEM CAME BACK ON THEN OFF AGAIN. WENT TO THE DEALER FOR KNOWN RECALL 14291 AND SAID MY SPECIFIC TRAILBLAZER IS NOT LISTED FOR THE RECALL. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AS I WAS DRIVING IN THE DARK FOR MANY MILES. I SHOULD BE REIMBURSED FOR ANY FIXES AS GM KNOWS THERE IS A PROBLEM NOT SURE WHY IT'S ONLY TO SPECIFIC TRAILBLAZERS AND NOT ALL FROM 2006-2007

MY LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS WON'T COME ON. I'VE REPLACED THE RELAY SWITCH, FUSE ONCE ALREADY. FINE FOR A SHORT TIME NOW THEY'RE NOT WORKING AGAIN.

HEADLIGHT AND DAYTIME RUNNING LAMPS GO OUT COMPLETELY. IT CAN HAPPEN AT ANY TIME WHETER IT IS STATIONARY OR WHILE DRIVING. WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT HEADLIGHT LAMPS GO OUT COMPLETELY MAKING IT UNSAFE.

MY PASSENGER SIDE LIGHT HAS NOT BEEN WORKING DUE TO THE WIRING MELTING AND NOT BEING ABLE TO GET THIS FIXED. THIS PROBLEM SHOULD NOT HAPPEN

LEFT TURN SIGNAL IS INTERMITTENT. WHILE SWITCHING LANES OR IN NEED TO SWITCH LANES THE LEFT TURN SIGNAL MIGHT TURN ON THEN COMPLETELY STOP OR WON'T TURN ON AT ALL. THE RIGHT TURN SIGNAL WORKS ALL THE TIME. THE LEFT TURN SIGNAL WILL WORK FINE, THEN OUT OF NO WHERE WILL STOP WORKING, THEN WILL START WORKING FINE. IT DOES THIS WHETHER THE CAR IS MOVING OR STATIONARY, ON THE HIGHWAY, STREETS, OR IN MY GARAGE. THE SAFETY CONCERN IS WHEN I NEED TO TURN IT SEEMS LIKE I'VE CHANGED MY MIND AND MIGHT CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS STOPPED WORKING. THE CONTACT HAD TO MANEUVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO A COMPLETE STOP. THE HEADLIGHTS ILLUMINATED AGAIN AFTER APPROXIMATELY FOUR MINUTES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 125,000.

THE LOW BEAM LIGHTS FLICKER AND THE GO OUT WHEN DRIVING. THIS IS CAUSED WHEN THE #46 HDM RELAY/MODULE OVERHEATS. OTHER TRAILBLAZERS HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THE SAME ISSUE BUT NOT MINE. THE IS A MAJOR KNOWN SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE NOT WORKING PROPERLY. SOMETIMES THE HEADLIGHTS WORK BUT OTHER TIMES THEY TURN OFF. THE HIGH BEAMS AND MARKER LIGHTS ARE NOT AFFECTED. THIS ALSO APPLIES TO THE DAYTIME RUNNING LAMPS AND OCCURS IN MOTION OR AT A STOP.
