Consumer Description

I OWN A 2002 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER AND RECENTLY EXPERIENCED LOUD, ROARING NOISE FROM ENGINE COUPLED WITH REDUCED POWER AND VERY POOR GAS MILEAGE. TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A DEALER AND CONFIRMED THE FAN CLUTCH HAD FAILED. DEALER QUOTE WAS $637.50 TO REPAIR. I ULTIMATELY PURCHASED THE PART ONLINE AND HAD IT INSTALLED BY A LOCAL MECHANIC AND SAVED MYSELF AROUND $260. VEHICLE RUNS FINE NOW. I CANNOT BELIEVE GM HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE. A SIMPLE INTERNET SEARCH WILL RETURN HUNDREDS OF POSTS RELATED TO THE FAN CLUTCH FAILURE. VERY DISAPPOINTING. *NM
