2002 Chevrolet TrailBlazer LTZ review from North America
"Buy one"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Just a summary in particular order:
Taillights didn't work (recall)
Front-end squeak (currently fixing for the 3rd time)
Rattle in passenger door
Rear A/C fan went bad
Rear wiper arm went bad
Rear main seal leaked, causing transmission slip
New tires (old ones were weathered and Michelin paid 55% toward new)
Lighter socket wouldn't work
New front wiper motor.
General comments?
Mostly minor problems, the squeak is very annoying since they've fixed it so many times.
Otherwise love the truck. Decent gas mileage especially for an SUV, awesome options come with the LTZ model, very good power, sharp looking, decent resale for an American car.
