Used 2003 Chevrolet Trailblazer Consumer Reviews
Why did I trade my SUV?
I bought the Trailblazer because it is a great looking SUV. However, I have had several electrical problems. The rear brake lights went our 6 times. The dealer changed the module 3 times before they were fixed. The "Check Engine" light came has come on 3 times. The driver's side mirror never returns to the proper position. The driver's heated seat module had to be replaced. The rear window washer hose has developed a kink in it. The rear seats are very uncomfortable and the driver's seat lacks support. The vehicle has deprieciated much faster than I thought was possible. My three previous SUVs were only in the shop for warranty work once, to repair a fog light that had burned out.
watch your front bumpers!
I love my 2003 Trailblazer, but I just discovered that my front bumper, just below my grill, is buckled..not bad enough for someone who isn't looking for it to see, but I noticed. I had heard that some dealerships had some come back for this problem, mainly due to the heat, so I checked mine and sure enough it was there. I took it to the dealership today and there is nothing that can be done. I was told that it probably would not get worse. I called Chevrolet customer service just to voice my concern. Just for your info!

THE 2003 ARE BETTER THAN THEN 2002
I LIVE IN UPPER NORTHERN WISCONSIN, AND I HAVE DRIVEN A LOT OF SUV'S AND TRUCKS IN MY TIME. I'VE OWN GMC, CHEVY'S & FORDS. I LOVE MY 2003 TRAILBLAZER. I KNOW THEY HAD ALOT OF PROBELMS WITH THE 2002, BUT MY 2003, I HAVED NO TROUBLE WITH IT EXCEPT FOR A RATTLE THAT I HAD FIXED. THE 2003 HANDLE GREAT. I LOVE DRIVING IN THE SNOW WITH MY TRAILBLAZER. THE ONLY PROBELM I GOT WITH THIS VEHICLE IS THAT THE RESALE VALUE IS CRAP. BUT YOU GET THAT WHEN YOU BUY AMERICAN. MY RECOMMENDATION FOR ANYONE LOOKING TO BUY A SUV. BUY THE 2003 TRAILBLAZER, NOT THE 2002
Traulblazer
No problems as of yet. Great performance and ride is great. Always had a Dodge before but Durango way too expensive and a gas hog. Comfort is important to me ( 6'4" 300lbs) and this sure beats the Explorer that I tried. Gas mileage is very reasonable and I love the power. LOve the standard towing package that comes already with the vehicle. Interior finish is a little tacky but I can live with it. Love the style.
SUV with an edge
After one year with my Trailblazer. I still look outside and admire its styling. When this SUV came out in 2002. It looked like a vehicle that was capable off road as well as a sporty cruiser around town. My family of 4 fits well in the Blazer. But, for me its a family vehicle that looks youthful and sport.
