Nipper the first really nice Suv I bought the CEO was the Trailblazer in LTZ full regalia format.
Had the straight six, good power, fast and handled like a top.
Thats the good news, a year and a half later we sold it at a loss, more quality control problems than any manufacturere had a right to. Electronics components one after another crapping out or intermittent screw ups. Windshield wipers would come on, go off, come on go off etc. Four wheel drive was controlled with some type of electronic engagement device that died the two times she ever tried to put it in four wheel drive due to slippery hill situation, twice a window fell down into the door, and half a dozen other things that my memory will not let me re-live.
Now I thought I had a lemeon but research on the web showed that we were not the only ones with these exact same issues. As a matter of fact I did that research cause the GM dealer was not going to stand behind the four wheel drive problem telling my wife that that electronic part was not covered under their warranty.
I showed up with the print outs from all the consumer complaints at the dealership and started telling everybody in their showroom what was happenening and raising my voice about the dealerships service and the quality of their product at which time they promptly informed me that it would be fixed. It was and it died again a few months later. Again I was told there was only a 90 day warranty on the part and it was going to cost me $750 for the repair and I came loaded for bear, walked right into there mega million dollar showroom and asked the GM if he remembered me. The vehicle was fixed.
We traded it in at a loss and was glad to be rid of it. Never by a GM again is what my wife told me.
So, if you want to know any experience with them that is all I got.
