- Date Of Incident: 2024-10-23

- VIN: KL79MTSL6PB
- Components: SERVICE BRAKES
- Summary: I have a 2023 trailblazer rs bought brand new. Currently has 12776 miles on it and for atleast the last 5000 miles I've noticed the breaks squeeling. Esp when I'm going slow speeds. I first thought maybe it was the weather or something. Moisture..whatever because this car is so new I just brushed it off. But it has progressively gotten worse and louder. Which is super frustrating when I'm picking my kids up in the pick up line and my car sounds 15+ years old when I'm rolling through and have to keep breaking. Squeeling in mine and everyone else's ear. I want this looked into a fixed. I had 2 kias before this that the engines blew from recalls they didn't wanna fix until it was to late. I'm a single mom who pays way to much to have a nice reliable car for there to be having issues already. I will be bringing it up to the dealership at my upcoming oil change. I refuse to be worried about the safety or reliability of this expensive new car..hauling my kids around.

- VIN: KL79MPSL5MB
- Components: POWER TRAIN
- Summary: When attempting to park the car I am able to shift into park, however, I get a message on the dashboard to “shift to park”. Dashboard also shows a “p” to reflect car is in park creating a contradiction on the dashboard of displayed items. When this occurs the car will not shut off. Dealer service has indicated this is not producing an error code, they have had many complaints, and the issue is not covered by power train warranty and part is back ordered. I am very concerned about the safety of my vehicle given the indicated failures of the shifting mechanism and Chevrolets inability to remedy the issue due to unavailable parts.

My car is now not reading my key 80% percent of the time. The vehicle turns off while driving down the road. Saying no “remote detected”. The key has been locked in the Car twice. Which should be impossible. I’ve been stranded outside of my vehicle at night in Atlanta for long periods of time. Trying to get the vehicle to unlock because it is not reading the key.

- Summary: For about a month now my vehicle is telling me to put it in park when it is already in park. Have to restart multiple times and go through all the gears put it back in park turn it off and still get the "shift to park" error. It does not happen every time I use my vehicle, but it happens so much I am unsure if it is safe to use. Even though it shows it is in park I wonder is it really? I have called the dealer where I purchased it for them to look at it and they will not even schedule an appointment because they say the parts are on back order and they have no idea when they will get them. This is the first brand new car I have purchased and after having a lot of secondhand vehicles I went back to Chevy. I am very disappointed in Chevy it only has 23000 miles on it, and they are not doing anything to fix this, I would not recommend Chevy/GMC to anyone.

The TrailBlazer is a great alternative to a crew cab pickup truck. It is a reliable off-roader, an excellent tow vehicle, and can be purchased at a reasonable price. The locking differential and skidplate are essential for any towing or off-roading activities. Although the TrailBlazer doesn't handle as well as a Highlander or Pilot, it can tow more weight and has superior truck-like capabilities. The roof rack is sturdy and functional, easily accommodating my kayak and supplies (300 lbs). The mileage is decent, averaging around 22 on the highway and 17 in town. If fuel efficiency is a concern, a crossover may be a better option. The tight turning circle makes it easier to park than my Mazda 6. Don't forget to bargain hard!

I've owned this truck since 2007, when I bought it as a birthday gift for myself. It has an impressive 198,000 miles on the clock, but it still runs like it's brand new. I've always made sure to keep up with the necessary maintenance, although I have had to replace a few things over the years, such as the batteries, fuel tank sensor (which was recalled and I got my money back), tires, water pump (twice), alternator, rear hatch shocks, and some front end parts (struts, control arms, bearings, etc.). Despite all of this, I absolutely love my truck and wouldn't trade it for anything else. Although I know that one day I'll have to replace it, I'm not looking forward to that day...

Vehicle year: 2006
My parents purchased a 2006 4WD LS Trailblazer from a used car lot in 2007/2008 when it had about 20K-30K miles on it. We have owned the vehicle since 2010 and it has been a great SUV for us. As someone who had never owned an SUV before, it took me a little while to get used to the low gas mileage, but it has been a lifesaver during heavy snow and icy conditions in Pennsylvania. The vehicle is about to hit 200,000 miles and I am hoping to keep it for at least another 20K miles, unless there is a costly major repair needed. I have replaced the engine belt at 187K miles, the front struts, all 4 rotors recently, and the belt tensioner twice (which was only a $15 part). The O2 sensor has been replaced once and I am currently ordering a thermostat for the engine (and a rear tail-light, as my wife backed into a car yesterday while out shopping). The Inline 6 engine is highly rated and I have never had any issues with it. Although the rear struts need to be replaced, the vehicle still passes state inspection and each time the mechanics mention how great of condition it is in. My only complaints with this vehicle are that the interior looks cheap on our LS model. The dash is made of hard plastic and the rear speakers have been out for over a year. Overall, I love this vehicle and would consider buying another one even though they are pretty old. If you ever have any problems with this vehicle, there is a fantastic website forum called TrailVoy.com with tons of discussions for any problem you could have with this vehicle and helpful tips on DIY fixes, or advice on paying for repairs.

What a great ride! It's so smooth and effortless on the highway, even when hauling a full load with the V-6 engine. Plus, it comfortably seats six large men. While the DVD player may cause some restricted visibility, the rear views handle the blind spots well. I especially love how the radio volume gently increases with the interior db level. And let's not forget the theater seating - it's fantastic!

I picked up my Trailblazer on August 8, 2020 and I am so impressed with the style, handling and features on this car! The RS series with Bose Stereo and glass moon roof are just amazing, and there are too many functions to mention. Plus, the gas mileage is great - I'm averaging 28 mpg around town, and 38 on the highway!
Are you having problems with your Chevrolet Trailblazer?
Dimitri Reilly 2025-02-17
Vehicle year: 2003
This SUV is one of the most comfortable rides I've experienced. It handles very well, although the 4WD may not be sufficient in extreme conditions. If you plan to push it to its limits, it's best to opt for the locking rear differential. While the interior may be a bit drab, the large controls are very user-friendly, and the numerous rear storage compartments are quite useful. Although the workmanship of the vehicle is only okay, it's still a great choice. However, after only 4 years of ownership, I've noticed that the door moldings are working their way loose, and rust is developing from the inside-out along the bottoms of the doors. The taillight lenses and license plate lights also let in far too much moisture. Overall, I would still recommend this SUV for its comfort and user-friendly features.

Hi there! I hope you're doing well. I wanted to share a story with you about my SUV. My husband bought it brand new for me back in 2005, and it's been a great car overall. However, a couple of years after we got it, we had some issues with the mile reader and the gas gauge. Unfortunately, the cost to repair these issues was quite high, so I've been driving the SUV based on mileage instead. I reached out to Chevrolet for help, but unfortunately, they couldn't cover the repairs due to the warranty being expired. However, just recently, I received a letter from Chevrolet offering to cover 50% of the cost to repair the gas gauge. While I'm still frustrated about the transmission going bad, I'm grateful for this offer and will definitely consider it. Thanks for listening to my story!

I hope you're doing well! I just wanted to share my experience with my truck. I bought it almost brand new in 2006, but unfortunately, within 2 months the struts went out. Then, the radiator had some issues, and to top it all off, I had to get a new motor in 2009. I was quite surprised by all these problems, and I couldn't help but wonder how one truck could have so many issues. I've heard that some people are really happy with this truck, but I just haven't had the same luck. Thanks for listening!

I purchased my Trailblazer in October of 2022. Unfortunately, I have had some issues with the car and it has spent a significant amount of time in the dealership for repairs. The brakes have been a particular concern as the car has stopped unexpectedly, even at high speeds. This has been a dangerous situation and despite the dealership's efforts, they have not been able to fix the problem. After seeking legal advice, GM has acknowledged that the car falls under the Lemon Law. While this has been a frustrating experience and has cost me thousands of dollars, I am hopeful that the situation will be resolved soon.

I purchased my TB brand new with only 21 miles on the odometer. Despite encountering some issues with the computer system and a strange noise coming from the wheels when reversing, I was able to get these problems resolved by the dealership. Although the trade-in value of the car was not as high as I had hoped, I still believe that the TB is a reliable vehicle that can provide a great driving experience. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a dependable car.
