What owners wrote
Driving I-85 north bound on the morning on 6/15/2015 headed to work when the rear passenger tire blew out causing my 2004 chevrolet trailblazer to cross over into another lane then back into the lane I was in, spin uncontrollable, all of a sudden the steering wheel started spinning and then the vehicle just shut down, steering wheel locks, the car comes to a stop and slams into a guard rail where I am facing south bound traffic, none of my air bags deploy, I have a neck and back injury that to this day I am still…
I have had my trail blazer for 1 yr and 1 month. In that time I have had to replace front and back pads and rotors, ball joints, catalytic (sp) converter, and now they just told me I have to replace the head gasket on the manifold. What the hell is going on with this vehicle. I no longer feel safe driving it. The other day the radio just stopped playing and then the service 4 wheel drive light came on.
