CarComplaints.com Notes: The Trailblazer emerged from an "upscale trim line" of the Blazer, but there's nothing upscale about its transmission problems or its wonky, unpredictable headlights.

About These NHTSA Complaints:
This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
While driving 40 mph steering pulley failed. Vehicle lost power. Dealership was notified, but did not resolve the problem. The vehicle switches itself into 4-wheel drive while the manual switch is in 2-wheel drive. The taillights failed. At new computer had to be installed. The rack and pinion needs to be replaced.
Whining heard from engine area after warm up. Heard from 2000 RPM and up during acceleration. After reaching desired speed (city, highway, or rural) and maintaining steady speed noise goes away. Sounds like a imminent steering rack failure as dealer has changed P/S pump, changed fluid, and flushed lines trying to correct problem to no avail. Happens upon every start and accelerate.
