WITH ONLY 55,000 MILES, THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD CRACKED. SEEING ALL OF THE COMPLAINTS ONLINE AND TALKING TO MY MECHANIC, THIS SEEMS TO BE A DEFAULT PART. CHEVY SHOULD BE RECALLING THESE. MY MECHANIC HAD TO ORDER THE PART THROUGH THE DEALER AND THEY HAD THE REPLACEMENT MANIFOLD IN STOCK. EXHAUST MANIFOLDS ARE NOT NORMALLY STOCK ITEMS UNLESS THERE IS A REAL HIGH NEED TO REPLACE THEM....... *TR

2008 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER LS WITH 63,000 MILES DEVELOPED A CRACKED EXHAUST MANIFOLD. I HAVE READ SEVERAL SIMILAR INCIDENTS ONLINE. GM SHOULD LOOK INTO A RECALL. *TR

THE GM LS2 ENGINE INSTALLED IN THE TRAILBLAZER SS MODELS HAS A KNOWN OILING ISSUE WHICH CAUSES THE ENGINE TO BE STARVED FOR OIL AND THUS, SPINS A ROD BEARING. BEING THAT THE TRAILBLAZER SS IS A LIMITED PRODUCTION VEHICLE, GM HASN'T LIFTED A FINGER TO RECALL OR REPAIR THIS DESIGN FLAW. THE PROBLEM ONLY EXISTS IN THE TRAILBLAZER SS (NOT CORVETTE OR GTO TO MY KNOWLEDGE) DUE TO A PROBLEM WITH THE OIL PAN. *TR

HELLO, I'M SURE YOU'VE HEARD MANY COMPLAINTS OF CRACKED EXHAUST MANIFOLD ON GMC SUV'S. I HAVE ONE AND HAVE BEEN READING WAY TOO MANY POSTS ONLINE ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE. THIS IS CAUSED BY WHAT 2 MECHANICS SAY IS A BAD DESIGN AND CHEAP PARTS. FOR A $30+ TRUCK, THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. I HAVE A 2008 TRAILBLAZER LT, WITH 50K MILES. THE COST TO FIX IS AVERAGED AT AROUND $600-$700!!!!! MANY HAVE TO TRY AND TACKLE THIS PROJECT ON THEIR OWN SINCE THAT TYPE OF MONEY ISN'T REALLY JUST LAYING AROUND FOR MOST PEOPLE AND WHAT HAPPENS IS BROKEN BOLTS AND THEN A WHOLE SEPARATE ISSUE. ALSO BEEN PROBLEMS WITH O2 SENSORS BECAUSE OF THE LEAK, SEEMS THIS PROBLEM CAN LEAD TO MANY OTHER PROBLEMS IF NOT FIXED IMMEDIATELY. I TRULY BELIEVE THAT THIS PROBLEM IS A FACTORY/MANUFACTURER DEFECT AND SHOULD BE TAKEN CARE OF, AT NO COST TO ME OR ANYONE ELSE FOR THAT MATTER. OR I SHOULD BE REIMBURSED FOR MONEY I NEED TO SPEND TOWARD FIXING IT SINCE I CAN'T AFFORD TO NOT HAVE IT IN DRIVING CONDITION. PROMPT ACTION TO THIS COMPLAINT WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. THANK YOU. STILL A TRUE GM BELIEVER!!!! BUT COULD REALLY USE SOME HELP HERE AS MANY OTHERS DO. *TR
