Transmission Failure problems of the 2000 Chevrolet Trailblazer

Two problems related to transmission failure have been reported for the 2000 Chevrolet Trailblazer. The most recently reported issues are listed below.

1 Transmission Failure problem

Failure Date: 01/22/2007

2000 chevy Trailblazer had transmission failure with only 71,000 miles. Dealer claimed that it was a "natural thing" for these transmissions to fail. Gm customer service refused to assist even though hundreds of these type complaints have been filed. An immediate recall should be imposed on Chevrolet for distributing faulty transmissions that fail even before maintenance is due. I would not be surprised to see a class action lawsuit over this due to the high number of transmission failures. Someone will eventually get severely hurt or even killed because there is no warning before the transmission breaks.

2 Transmission Failure problem

Failure Date: 04/15/2004

At approx. 50,000 miles I had total transmission failure in my 2000 Chevrolet Trailblazer. This vehicle was used under normal conditions. The result was a replacement of the transmission (gm rebuild) installed at a dealer for cost of approx. $1800. 00 which was unacceptable that I had to pay anything in my opinion, even though the vehicle was out of warranty. I have spoken with other owners who experienced the same issue.
