2003 Chevrolet TrailBlazer EXT LS review from North America
"I would not buy one again"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Multiple times in shop within the first year of purchase. Engine stalls at stop signs and red lights. Stalls when in reverse. Stalled once while exiting the freeway. Engine sensors (check engine light) burned out. Brand new battery faulty, needed to be replaced within 3 months of ownership. Door seals have fallen off. Hazard lights engage spontaneously as well as the blinkers.
Driver seat motor burned out.
General comments?
Would be a decent family vehicle if my Trailblazer in particular did not experience so many problems. The design is good. The cloth interior is VERY forgiving especially for those with small children. Handles well in wet weather. The trade in value is terrible.
