This is a very nice SUV to drive, very smooth, great views, turning radius is long but you can live with it. I drive 50 miles one way to work and am always very comfortable. Wish gas mileage was a little better however, but you take the good with the so-so. I would recommend this vehicle to anyone in the market for a midsize SUV
Not worth the work

I have loved this car, but I do not have the time nor wish to spend the amount of time necessary in up keeping this car. The older it gets, the more the little things keep adding up. From the AC to the fan to the hatch hydraulics to the windshield wipers to the driver door panel to the sun roof to the electric shorting in general...... the list goes on and on. I have always felt pretty safe driving it, unless the battery dies or the fuel pump fails. You need AAA with this car.

I bought my 2006 Trailblazer brand new in 2006. I usually trade-in cars after five to seven years but this vehicle has been so reliable I plan to keep it beyond 13 years. I have the LS so nothing too fancy. My only complaint is the fuel sensor went out at 80K miles so I use the trip odometer to fill up every 250 miles. I hear this is a common and irritating problem that GM refuses to deal with. I have 120k miles on it now. Regular maintenance, one water pump and that's about it. Original brakes and my mechanic says I've still got 10% left. Mine is starting to rust - MN winters - so I need to take care of that but plan to keep the vehicle as long as it keeps running strong. November 2019 - the vehicle continues to perform well with few issues. I am not happy about the amount of rust the vehicle has for being garaged 100% of the time. A friend has a Lexus SUV one year older than mine and over 150,000 miles with zero rust. His sits outside more than mine.

Yesterday after my vehicle had been parked it would not go into gear. You could feel the gear shift slipping, not engaging in any position. Checked/full of transmission fluid. Only has 36,000miles. A gentleman asked if he could help, said he worked for a chevy dealer, said the belt slips off of the gear shift and this is a very common thing. Also said that chevy dealer would tell you you needed a new belt, but that it can be put right back on, as a matter of fact he did it right in the parking lot with a pair of scissors. Has anyone had this issue with this vehicle. Otherwise we are very satisfied with our TB, no issues other than this
Love my TrailBlazer

I had a 2002 TrailBlazer and loved it. I was very pleased with everything about it. The handling, gas mileage, etc. I traded it in for a 2006. It had more options on it. Sunroof, six disc player, power driver seat. I'm still getting great gas mileage. It was even a little cheaper than my 2002. For the price, you can get a lot for your money. I will buy another one if I decide I want a new SUV!
