Opps We Made A Mistake

Lots of Power, great acceleration, good turning. Have not used 4x4 yet. GM should provide compass on all the TrailBlazer mirrors, not just LT. Rear area is large, spare tire is under second seat. Mats are useless. Paint chipped in first week. Driver's side mirror on visor HAS NO COVER ON IT. Be careful, it is disorienting. Have contacted GM twice and dealer, no help. Have never seen a car with the mirror uncovered whether foreign or domestic. Is a safety hazard.

I really enjoy driving it when it is not having problems. It is a company car that gets every dealership recommended service and oil changes at 3K miles; however, there have been several recalls, transmission failure at 38K miles, 4wd went out, electrical issues that impacted tail light, air conditioning and rear wiper, horrible noise when turning sharply in 4wd that had to be fixed, parking break stopped working. Though I enjoy driving it, I am reluctant to buy another one for fear of spending several times a year at the dealership.

Overall I love this vehicle... except for the build quality... I had to have the engine replaced at 9500 miles... dealer said there was a gouge in the 5th piston sleeve... plus there have been some other smaller things... "other than that Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?" it has run great since the replacement though...

It is a nice truck , The new 4.2 Inline 6 delivers plenty of power, It has a very smooth ride , Truck handles great in the snow . A lot of SUV for the money !! Highly recommended , It's not up to Toyota or Honda quality yet but GM has seem to come a long way !!

Vibration @ ~60mph

Like others, I also have the vibration that occurs around 60mph that can be felt through the accelerator pedal. I brought it in this morning and the service dept. called GM Tech Service. The service consultant told me that GM was aware of this and that it had something to do with the firing impulses. I didn't get into the details. Bottom line, the service dept. couldn't do anything right now but said that hopefully in the near future GM will have a fix.
