Consumer Description

2002 TRAILBLAZER ACTED LIKE TRANSMISSION GOING OUT, TOOK TO DEALER THEY UPGRADED COMPUTER. FRONT RIGHT LOW BEAM WIRED BURNED AND MELTED, TOOK TO DEALER THEY WANTED TO CHARGE 250.00 PLUS LABOR FOR LIGHT ASSEMBLY WHEN ALL IT NEEDED WAS A PIGGY PLUG, BOUGHT PLUG AT NAPA AND FIXED MYSELF. NEVER HAVE HAD TWO BACK LIGHTS WORKING AT SAME TIME... CANT TAKE TO DEALER TO GET THE RECALL WORK BECAUSE IT SEEMS THAT THESE VEHICLES ARE USING A "WEAK" OIL PUMP AND MY TRAILBLAZER HAS BEEN IN SHOP FOR LAST MONTH OR MORE WAITING TO BE FIXED. THE WEAK OIL PUMP CAUSED DAMAGE TO ROD BEARINGS, MAIN BEARINGS, AND CRANKSHAFT. GM SAYS OUT OF WARRANTY AND MY CUSTOMER SERVICE SPECIALIST SAID "I'M SORRY" ABOUT 10 TIMES BUT SHE WAS STILL CLOSING MY FOLDER AND MARKING DISSATISFIED. SHE CAN'T HELP ME BECAUSE I'M OUT OF WARRANTY. I HATE THIS VEHICLE. I HAVE FOUND QUITE A FEW RECALLS BUT CAN'T DO MOST BECAUSE ITS IN THE SHOP. I NEVER GOT ANY RECALL NOTICES.*AK
