Overview & Reviews

This fully redesigned Trailblazer now sports a longer, wider and noticeably stiffer chassis, along with an all-new 4.2-liter inline six-cylinder engine and a more refined suspension that is light years ahead of its predecessor, the Blazer. Unique sheet metal now differentiates the Trailblazer from its GM cousins, the GMC Envoy and Oldsmobile Bravada, while a restyled interior makes better use of the additional passenger room inside.

• Class-leading engine power, forgiving ride, room for seven in the EXT version.

  I couldnt afford it. - 2002 Chevrolet TrailBlazer
  By Rhonda W - June 28 - 8:59 pm

  I loved this car. It had enough room for my family of 5 plus a little more. In December 2002, the transmission went out for the first of three times. It was under warranty the first time, but not the other two times. The rear air conditioner had problems as well. On two different occasions it had to be repaired. After the third transmission failure in August 2005, I fixed it and traded it. I miss the car, but I had spent over $4,000 in repair and maintenance costs in the 15 mos following the expiration of my warranty. I just couldnt afford it anymore.

  Few Problems - 2002 Chevrolet TrailBlazer
  By Matthew - June 19 - 2:33 pm

  Ive had my Trailblazer since March 2003. I have never had a major repair or problem with the vehicle. Handles like a car, and if you keep up with regular maintenance schedules, the car is a joy. Im pushing 100,000 miles after 4 years and the car is still running like day one. I used to own a Blazer and it rode like a rock after 6 months, but the Trailblazer has run like a car since day one and thereafter. I would highly recommend it for safety, style and dependability.

  The lemon in the bowl of fruit. - 2002 Chevrolet TrailBlazer
  By Blank - June 15 - 10:00 am

  Sharp looking vehicle; good fuel economy for an SUV; handles well; However, lots of repairs, rattles and noises. Overall, it has all of the parts of the puzzle. It just wasnt put together well. Disappointing!! Selling it ASAP.

  The Trail Blazer handles well under Colorado weather conditions. We are impressed with the SUVs pulling capabilities. The brakes, however, are a bit soft. Cheverolet should beef up the braking system in newer models.

  No Regrets - 2002 Chevrolet TrailBlazer
  By Tundraman - May 24 - 12:04 pm

  Bought the TrailBlazer 4WD LTZ brand new almost 5 years ago, trading in my 96 Grand Cherokee Limited. Fuel economy, handling, power, reliability and quality are all about the same. The Chevy has better interior space and comfort although I think the front seats could be better. I think the Chevys style, ride, stereo and other gadgets are better than the Jeeps. The only thing I miss is the sound of the V8. Chevys V6 might have plenty of power but the sound of it is almost embarrassing. The trips back to the dealer have been infrequent, just regular servicing, fixing the turn signal on the side mirror that the car wash people broke and to fix a ding in the hood.

  Good but not Great - 2002 Chevrolet TrailBlazer
  By The Mow Man - May 2 - 10:34 pm

  Like the truck, but it can be improved.The seat belt location is hard to reach, it eats headlights and tail lights. Good power, lots of room for hockey equip, dogs and kids. Nice looking. Thinking about moving to newer.

  Content with TrailBlazer LTZ - 2002 Chevrolet TrailBlazer
  By content - April 7 - 2:00 am

  My First SUV in ages... Very satisfied with this barely used [9900 miles] Loaded TrailBlazer LTZ. Ive had it one month and put 1000 miles on it so far. First roadtrip was 300 miles in a winter storm that brought 10+inches of snow so I was able to try out the AWD and 4WD options and had no troubles with either rather was surprised at how well it travelled with both. -2nd cup holder is hard to use if you have your cell phone and/or radar plugged in as the cords block its use.

  Fix the Little Things! - 2002 Chevrolet TrailBlazer
  By Fred - March 20 - 5:58 pm

  Started looking for an 02 Explorer, and then read about all the problems with them. So I switched over to the TrailBlazer. Liked almost everything I got. But a couple of little electrical issues keep this from being a great car. 1) Memory mirrors dont go where they are supposed to when preset is recalled. Dealer says it needs to be replaced, but I will just live with it. 2) OnStar system is not working. Needs to be fixed. Would have been nice to know before I signed up for the service. I think this is more a problem of the dealer not fixing a few issues before selling it, but with only 51K on it, these shouldnt be issues in the first place.

  TOO MANY TRIPS TO MECHANIC - 2002 Chevrolet TrailBlazer
  By chammond20 - March 8 - 2:00 am

  We have had our TB LT 4x4 for 2 years and we have had it in for repair at least 8 times. At least three were for recalls, two times for the rear windshield wiper, two other times because it was stalling and failed to start, and another for the driver window coming off track. Its too bad because we reallly like the style and features of the vehicle. The ride and power are great, but you shouldnt have to deal with these problems wiith a $34,000 vehicle. This could be a great vehicle once the kinks are worked out.

  Lot of Luxury...Not a lot of Price. - 2002 Chevrolet TrailBlazer
  By Steve - March 5 - 12:12 pm

  My wife insisted on getting an SUV in spite of her having a reliable 2dr car that was paid for. I shopped around for awhile and saw that the Trailblazers came at a good price. We bought used with low miles. I couldnt be happier with the car. Its got so many bells and whistles (we have the LTZ) it makes it fun to drive. Gas mileage is not the best but, its an SUV what can you do.
