Shortly after I purchased a 2004 chevy trailblazer I began to have problems with a loud vibration from the undercarriage. It has been to the shop numerous times but is still not fixed. Recently the vehicle began stalling out at any given time. Dealer could not replicate. Still does it!!! Around the same time my transmission would slip. Dealer could not replicate. Still does it!!! Now I am feeling a lot of vibration in the steering wheel when I turn.
