2002 Chevrolet TrailBlazer review from North America
"A purchasing mistake"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Shortly after we purchased our used Trailblazer, the fan clutch went, an $800 expense.
Then last month (July 2007), the fuel sending unit went, which cost us $1,000.00. This was a bargain as the dealership wanted $1,250.00. I understand the NHTSA has investigated this problem, and there is a possible recall.
General comments?
After reading all the other reviews, I worry that this vehicle will be a bottomless pit for repairs, and wonder if I should sell it.
The vehicle rides quite nicely, and we happy with it otherwise.
