The power is great.
Spacious and strong vehicle, but does not live up to American standard.
Obvious defects that could have been avoided, and could have been pointed out by a five year old.
Cons: How would you improve 2006 Chevrolet TrailBlazer?
Recall, Recall, and Recall... Should repair what they over looked in production.
Fuel Gauge failure, Gas Cap flap fell into tank (is that my fault), don't think so!
Dashboard, Radio, Steering wheel lights out or very dim.
Plastic around seats falling off.
Pulleys squeaking ALWAYS!

Too expensive to fix everything that needs fixing. Too many features that require dealership intervention. Just waiting for the next issue to arise to see how much it will cost me.

2006 Chevrolet TrailBlazer Review:
I have been a new-Chevy buyer for past 40+ years, but problems with this TB have me looking at other brands. Picked TB because of size and power train but others in this class are now looking more reliable. This 2006 TB LT V8 has had nuisance items wrong since new.

2006 Chevrolet TrailBlazer Review:
Bought my 06 TB in 07 with 24,000 miles. Nothing but problems mechanically. Had the gas gage replaced 3 times, both window/lock motors, had a new trans at 66,000 miles, vacuum leak, 4wd issues, idle air control valve, voltage regulator, and on and on and on.
Will never buy another TrailBlazer, thank god for the extended warranty.

Chevy needs to recall the vehicle because I am not the only one having problems with the gas gage not working, the warning lights come on all the time.
2006 Chevrolet TrailBlazer Review:
Recall the problems with this vehicle. Chevy needs to stand up for its vehicles and make sure they work properly, and fix what doesn't, like the fuel gauge and warning lights.
