2023 Chevrolet Trailblazer SUV Consumer Reviews
Pricing
Engine
Loved it when I got it about a month ago but now I’m having trouble with the engine not working right and it makes a nocking sound when I turn it on now. When I push the gas the RPM will go up to 4 or 5 but the car will move at like 2 mph. I was coming out my driveway one day and pushed the gas and it slowly started poking into the road and I pushed the pedal harder and had it all the way to the floor since a big truck was coming and when it finally caught up I drifted out the driveway because the car took off. It does not happen all the time but it is starting to become more frequent which is very dangerous. That’s my only complaints about the car. I have 3 kids. One in a booster, and infant car seat and one who is not in a booster and they all fit great.

I really want to get detailed with my review because so far my owner experience has been a love/hate relationship. I have a 2023 RS and overall it's been a good vehicle so far but I'll give a list of pros and cons. PROS: Lots of space, tons of headroom for myself in the driver seat. The passengers have tons of foot and leg space in the back and cargo room is plentiful. I do not have the panoramic sunroof. The heated seats and steering wheel have to be the hottest I have ever felt. After about 5 minutes, I have to turn them down. The touch screen is responsive and has good resolution. Apple CarPlay is wireless and connects right away when you start the car. There are plenty of USB ports, cup holders, and different little storage areas. Acceleration is decent from the 1.3L, it isn't quick but it gets the job done and I've never thought it didn't have ENOUGH power. Now the CONS... SQUEAKS AND RATTLES ARE DRIVING ME CRAZY! I understand this isn't the most expensive vehicle but goodness it rattles. I've taken almost everything out of the car, checked screws, everything and it just always rattles. You have to turn the radio up so you don't hear it. The speakers are terrible, by the way. I've blown the tweeter on the passenger side and I don't turn the volume up all the way. Safety systems are annoying and not very good. The forward emergency breaking is always flashing that stupid red light at me and beeping because it thinks I'm going to hit something when nothing is near me. Mine personally has a terrible brake feel. Sometimes it feels like I can push them to the floor and I get no braking and other times I throw myself thru the windshield because it stops so hard. That could just be a problem with mine that I need to get checked. Window on the driver side has an annoying rattle when it's rolled down half way. The touch screen is good most of the time but do have times where it glitches and or restarts. I do not have the HD camera option but the standard back up camera is USELESS. It's the lowest quality camera ever and at night, it's seriously useless. FUEL ECONOMY ---- 21.6 MPG Lifetime average ---- 30 MPG Highway ---- 14 MPG City (I do lots of idling at my job and city driving) $40 to fill from empty with gas at $3.79/gallon Listen, for $30,000 or so, it's a pretty good little SUV. I'm happy it is on a lease because I'm not sure how reliable the little 1.3L Turbo is going to be but time will tell. I think if you can deal with some of the faults, it's going to do good for a small family or couple. You can load lots of items into it, I've thrown things up on the roof racks before. It does the job and overall you'll be happy. If any problems or things change, I'll update my review.

210 miles and…
Leased this car for my daughter. With 210 miles we noticed the car making a loud, whining noise. Brought it back to the dealer. They have no idea what is wrong with the car, nor how to fix it. 9 days into owning and now we are without the car until GM engineering can inform the dealer on how to proceed. Ridiculous!
