Over all my 02 TB ltz 4wd has been a very good to me. Has towed trailer & not missed a beat. Shes needed parts replaced under hood but At 265,000 miles she still starts right up. Right now she sits & dont know why? Driving 65 on highway it felt like I went into neutral. No lights, codes, noises, no warning at all. Got towed home & there she sits!

The trailblazer is an outstanding vehicle. With the inline 6-cylinder instead of the usual V6, you get more torque for hauling than usual. Plenty of cargo space to begin with, but also has fold down seats for more. Though no longer in production, there is a wealth of aftermarket parts available for customization. Low-end torque is an issue with the I6, but mid-to-high RPMs let out plenty. Braking is good and despite its size, this baby turns on a dime, making tight parking lots a breeze. Having owned this truck for almost 5 years now and being over 8 years old, I have never had to make any serious, expensive repairs until just recently when the ball joints on my front suspension went bad, severely throwing off my alignment and requiring immediate replacement. Other than that, the most common problem I've read about with this truck the fan clutch giving out, one of the few and most common issue that is complained about in the Trailvoy (Trailblazer/Envoy - built on the same platform with the same engine) community. A pretty simple and relatively inexpensive repair, with a new fan clutch running you about $200 at your local parts store like AutoZone. The appearance is great in my opinion. Not too big and bulky like other larger SUVs and plenty of aftermarket parts available for the expansive imagination. Manufacturer states 14/20 MPG, but with a K&N air filter and removed resonator, I do about 16/22. Not fantastic, but it in the end, it's still an SUV. All-in-all, I enjoy driving my Trailblazer. It has plenty of power, superb handling for an SUV, and a large following in the TrailVoy community that earns it a memorable and dependable reputation.

I've learned that I will never again buy the first year's model of any vehicle. Shop visits have included: 5 recall repairs on various parts. Bulb replacements: 2 headlight, 2 brake light, 1 3rd brake light unit, 2 taillight. Humming sound in instrument cluster that they've never been able to fix. Replaced the battery at 55k miles. New tires at 60k. Not bad, I'm told. Paint has held up well considering the vehicle isn't garaged and we're in SoCal. I did have the Maxx Guard applied when I purchased the vehicle. Love the LOOKS of this SUV which is why I bought it in the first place. It's a tough looking SUV, especially with running boards, dark glass, 17" rims and rainguards. I wish the shifter was on the steering wheel, freeing up some space between the front seats. I have leather seats - my son hates the cold seats in the 'winter' - the front seats have heaters - they should offer heated rear seats. Only other change would be an electric rear window rather than hatch style. My dogs don't get much air when they're in the back. Can't say for sure if I'd buy another Trailblazer, but it's been ok.

stylish suv with all creature comforts you need for short and long trips. I've owned this car for several years and with 117,000 miles it still runs good. this suv could take the place of a pick-up.I plan on driving this car for another 100,000 miles

runs great, would recommend, mine has high miles over 200k but works likes a clock, 4 wheel drive is wonders in the winter weather, Michelin tires are quiet, smooth and look great, go test drive one today, too bad GM discontinued it, but there are plenty around to buy
