I was driving on the freeway and my panoramic moonroof literally exploded from the inside out. It sounded like a gunshot almost. Then the glass shattered. I am glad that the screen was closed otherwise all the glass would have gotten in my car.

The brakes squeal and squeak when in reverse and applying the brake when going forward at low speed. I have been told there is a GM service bulletin that says this is normal for the brakes to make this very loud noise. I have not seen this bulletin and have not been able to find the bulletin online. At any rate this is not normal for a car with 7600 miles to have brakes that squeal all the time. I have taken this to two different dealers and get the same answer but I do not believe it is proper to make a customer deal with this when they spend close to 30k on a car and you will not fix it because it does not cause a safety issue. Bumper-to-bumper warranty coverage should mean just that.

Was in the middle of a 3 car collision. After about 5 min engine started smoking and a fire started. Fire slowly escalated and fully engulfed the entire car.

Cutter Chevrolet in Honolulu had a recall on my vehicle for a jack unable to support the vehicle. I had the appointment to address the recall. Their solution was to remove the jack without a replacement. Now I no longer have a jack. It will now cost me to have someone else to change a wheel that I can do myself. I have a spare tire with no jack in my new vehicle

On June 10, 2021 I was driving home at a speed of approx 65 miles an hour from the grocery store on Interstate 255 when all my side airbags suddenly exploded. My 2021 Chevy Trailblazer RS was 3 months old and had 3500 miles on the car. After exiting the vehicle, I found the rear passenger tire was flat. Upon changing the tire, we discovered that the wheel had split apart. There is no damage to the body or underneath the vehicle. There was no large potholes or debris anywhere in the area. Upon starting the investigation with GM regarding the incident, they reported that the air bags acted as they should and they would not take liability. When both myself and the service manager of the dealership questioned why the report had not one single mention of the tire/wheel which caused the deployment of the airbags in the entire investigative report, we were both told "the airbags acted as they should" and the decision was final. The service manager was in shock and has stated repeatedly that based on the facts gathered and condition of the tire/wheel, there was some sort of defect in the wheel which caused it to explode. There is absolutely no evidence to make him think that I hit anything or caused the incident. GM will not discuss the case any further and told me to turn it over to my insurance. The fact that they did not investigate the cause (the exploding of a wheel for no apparent reason) makes me believe they are trying to cover up a potential issue that could impact the safety of other 2021 Trailblazer owners. The air bag replacements are on backorder and are predicted to take months. I am currently without a vehicle.

Within 3 months of owning the vehicle I started to hear a crackling sound coming from the passenger speaker in the door. At first it was loud and I thought someone hit me. It did it several times and then stopped. It has happened about a dozen times since I have owned the vehicle. When I took it in for my oil change I told them and they could not replicate it so they didn't know what it was and didn't see anything. It actually just happened again yesterday so when I take it in again I will tell them about this. We thought maybe it was only when it rained but that is not the case, it just happens and I can't think of anything that is consistent when it does. It comes out loud and scares me every time. I just want this fixed, I have only owned my car for 1 year now and like everything but this.
