| I just bought a '02 Trailblazer Lt and have started hearing some disturbing things about the new I6 engine. I have heard of the engines quitting due to a cylinder sleeve disintegrating. If anyone else has heard of or had this problem please let me know.
Thanks,
A very concerned owner |

I have heard Chevy had a problem with a certain run of engines - they wont release the VIN #'s for obvious reasons. I understand the engine blocks were made somewhere else and are cracking? $10000 Cdn repair. I want to buy but im worried.

i work at a dealership and i've seen 1 or 2 with cracked blocks with very low miles. i'm not so sure about any of GM's gen III or their new frames (i've also seen cracked frames on trucks used for plowing.) if you have a half ton extended cab it's not recommended to plow with it. personally i think i'd wait a few more production years to let GM get some more bugs worked out of their new truck line.

I have an '02 trailblazer and have had several engine problems, ie. bucckibg, very rough idle, unable to start at times. the last time the dealer claimed it was bad gas and charged me about $400. for repairs including new sensor-anybody out there with similar problems?
