This Year's Model Updates:

For 2004, Chevrolet has dropped the high-line LTZ trim level. Power-adjustable pedals, a DVD-based navigation system, automatically locking doors and XM Satellite Radio are new features this year. The instrument panel now sports a freshened monochromatic look. The North Face Edition package gets unique 17-inch wheels, while all models get new 17-inch aluminum wheels.

Pros:
  • Strong engine performance, comfortable highway ride, extensive features list, user-friendly controls.
Cons:
  • Skittish handling around corners, numb steering, generic interior design, low-grade interior materials.

  • There are better choices - 2004 Chevrolet TrailBlazer

    Squeaks and rattles after 8000 lbs. Low residual value. Poor brakes. Poor steering. Power window and lock buttons feel sloppy, junky. Sour odor from HVAC vents due to mold in ducts.

  • Trailblazer woes - 2004 Chevrolet TrailBlazer

    This truck has been nothing but trouble. I have had it into the dealer numerous times only to drive it off the lot & find another problem. The transmission & electrical components are the main concern on this SUV.

  • Expensive Junk - 2004 Chevrolet TrailBlazer
    By -

    This SUV is overpriced, and, in my opinion, is one of the most uncomfortable vehicles I have ever been in as a passenger. The seatbelts are crap, and it takes about five minutes to get them to work properly. It is fair (in terms of comfort) when you are the driver. The interior is junk. And, it is worth about half the price I paid for it, and I got the GM discount.

  • Do not buy a trailblazer!!!! - 2004 Chevrolet TrailBlazer
    By -

    In the past year Its seen the dealers service department 5 times and today its going on 6 because the left brake light went out on a truck thats 1 year and 3 months old.We bought the truck NEW! The first 2 times were because the key would get stuck in the ignition. Then they "FIXED IT" Then it happened a 2nd time. After that the driver door handle trim was falling off. About 2 months later the rubber trim around the license plate started to go underneath the plastic part. Then recently the A/C wouldnt kick on untill I turned off the A/C and turned it back on. The dealer said something had broken inside but they were able to fix it. Well see.

  • shabby build - 2004 Chevrolet TrailBlazer
    By -

    2 Months after purchase already hearing wind noise around windows. Totaled out 9 months after purchase in major accident and no airbag deploy (front or side) which was a key buying point. Investigation by GM said airbags shouldnt have deployed, I beg to differ, motor sitting on frame after accident. I guess only a head on collision would deploy airbags.
