Chevy Blazer Reviews

I purchased a 2025 Chevy Blazer 2.0L turbo in May '25. It had 5,000 dealer miles, so it was used. I had my free oil change at 8,000 miles. About 3,600 miles and 4 months later, I checked the oil to find it was down exactly one quart. Bear in mind, I returned from the dealer and checked their work. The oil level was spot on. About 1,500 miles later, I checked again and found I was an additional 1/3rd quart down. In about 5,200 miles, I lost 1 1/3rd quarts. The dealer told me losing a quart every 2,000 miles is an acceptable GM standard! Unacceptable! Otherwise, I like the car. I doubt this engine will have longevity.

I bought a brand new 2023 Chevy Blazer, and have had nothing but issues with the "emission system" aka - automatic start for two years. Ironically, that was the #1 item on my wish list when buying a new vehicle. It works in the summer, but NEVER in the winter when it's really cold (I live in MN) and never when it's wet. The whole point of auto-start is warming your vehicle up when it's freezing here in MN! It's been back to the dealer so many times I have lost count, because every time this happens the engine light goes on and has to be re-set. Every. Single. Time! I was told that Chevy "knows it's an issue but doesn't have a fix because not enough people have complained." So that's really helpful - I will never buy another Chevy, and am looking to get rid of this one before this winter is over! I am beyond frustrated and at my wits' end. Don't buy this vehicle if you want the auto start to work!

I purchased a 2024 Chevy Blazer RS in May. I had it for 1 week when the transmission went out. GM refused to replace the transmission they would only rebuild it. Denied any kind of extended warranty. Just wanted to add reward points to my account. When the complaint was escalated to management the manager I spoke with was rude and acted as if he didn't care of my concerns. I will never buy a gm product again.

Recently I bought a brand new 2020 Blazer. Against better judgement. I only had a few hours to come up with a ride. I gave my original ride to my stepdaughter. I don't mind that. The only car that I've ever owned where it's been in the shop multiple times a courtesy vehicle issued to me twice. Totally waste of money. I honestly wish they would give me my money back so I could have got the vehicle that I should have got in the first place. Oh well lesson learned. I can't wait for the time when I get to get rid of it.

I owned my 03 Chevrolet Blazer for 10 years. I Loved it. Regret ever letting it go. Every vehicle I've owned since had just been problem after problem. In the 10 years I owned my blazer I only had minimal wear and tear fixes, changed the fuel pump once which was my own fault for adding a strange fuel additive. And a mass airflow sensor that got too dirty and quit. As far as safety goes, I've never felt safer in a vehicle. Well built heavy duty steel not that flimsy fiberglass on the newer vehicles. I did get into an accident head on with the blazer only at about 20 km but the newer Rav 4 had to be towed away it had so much damage. My blazer had a small dent in the bumper.

I love my Blazer. It has a tight turning radius, so it's easy to turn around. It has a great ride and is decent on fuel. Plus it's sooooo goood looking. I won't buy anything but a Chevy or a GMC.

I have several vehicles and have still own 4 gm products. The trailblazer only has 60,000 + miles, but I have had no real issues. I've towed a 3,500 lb boat hundreds of miles and other trailers numerous times with no issues. I bought this SUV in November 2001 (obviously one of the first in production) and still do have low mileage so my opinion may change over time since the resale is low and I really like this vehicle. I will probably keep it for years. I guess mine isn't a lemon.

At 70,000 miles my Chevy Trailblazer's cluster died! Speedometer and oil gauge either spin out of control or shows nothing when car is running. With all the past recalls for certain Chevy clusters I cannot understand how the blazer was omitted from this recall!!

I have kept my truck for 16 years and just spend $460 on tires and another $500 on other parts. The truck has 115k miles. I like how the truck rides and is quiet, that is true with almost all GM vehicles. The truck/SUV does require a bit of maintenance, ball joints, front end parts, radiator, emission system fan, I could go on and on. Overall it is not that bad to work on, and parts and videos on the web are easy to find. However if you have an older model and pay full price to have it fixed it will cost a lot. The aftermarket parts seem to work OK and you can save quite a bit. I just replace the encoder motor for the 4wd and it cost me 3 hours and $140. The dealer would do it in 1.5 hours and it would cost $900 with $100 diagnostics and a $600 part.

I have a 2007 Chevy trailblazer. Starting from a month after ownership I noticed a kick when my suv shifted from 1st to 2nd gear. I brought it into the dealership and would get turned away multiple times with excuses as to why it would do that. After about 1 1/2 years of bringing it in and them never even checking it out... they finally did and had to replace the transmission.
