Have a 2008 trailblazer which based on my research uses the same unit. Have not had this problem and I do not find a listing of known problems but I do find others that have had the unit wear out with some getting swipes in one direction only and other not at all. Being that they use multiple suppliers for the same part, I wonder if one built it cheaper than another and as such you have units that all passed initial inspection and testing but over the long haul one last longer than another. I bet you can find a reasonable priced unit on one of the GM parts web sites and replace it yourself back to like new.

Not only that but it is amazing how many people want to blame the current folks in charge for this on another persons watch. Instead, pull in the forced out old executives and hold their feet to the fire for their greed and poor accountability. Do not burn the current people who are working hard to go in the right direction.

Waste of time, this pretty much goes down the path of total gov control of what you do, when you do it and how you do it and allows people who are reckless and do not bother to take the time to maintain and repair their auto's to blame someone else for their stupidity. In other words this legislation is the continuation of going down the road of truly building a new cast system of have and have not's and blaming everyone else for a person not taking the responsibility of doing their maintenance and repairing normal wear and tear items. At this rate I could see auto makers building cars that last 100K miles and then saying you have to turn it back in for destruction and you really never own the auto.

Probably burned cause we know how those California freakin greenies love to covert everything. Probably had one of those wonderful Electric conversions as to why this ended up in Chevy rather than GMC. Took the heart out of the Professional grade and left it Electric grade Chevy!

Lets see if we have a million of these turbo's on the road after 100K miles. I wonder if this is a way to get auto's to the crusher faster to drive more consumption by selling a 100K car and then toss it.

Yawn, Put the new Corvette V8 or the TT V6 into a mid size truck and call it Syclone. That would be bad ass. Full size trucks are for work, not impressed with the peeps that lower them, bag them and pretty much destroy the truck from the usefulness of what it is intended for.

This could have some very cool implications for Chevy and other divisions if GM does this right with useing them to built limited production runs yearly of select elite performance auto's. From Cars to Trucks even CUV/SUV's.

WOW Did not know Ocn was so short he needed a booster seat to see over the dashboard!

WOW First impressions are Clean and a soft spot for their attempt. After looking at the photo's at the link, I would not touch it as that is a rust bucket about to die. Amazing it is that clean inside. I figure the dealership or the original owner before trading it in cleaned it up to get best trade in value. The rust and cracks make me think it will just vaporize on impact with a Detroit pot hole.

Yahoo, reprinted a story by "The Street" that covers the top 10 WORST auto's ever in the world. Seems 8 of the top 10 are right here in the US. Look at the 10 and tell me if you agree. They start by saying #10 is the 1979 Oldmobile Station wagon Diesel and end with the #1 worst Pontiac Aztek. The pictures are in the order of the story. Their justification is interesting. Some of it I do feel is personal experiance versus actual fact, but each person is entitled to their opinion. http://autos.yahoo.com/news/10-worst-cars-of-all-time-revisited-012257791.html;_ylt=Al5rVgaNjh2_MKSMECEr4nImhvZ_;_ylc=X3oDMTduaWFhdTdlBF9TAzIxNDY4NjI2MzAEYWN0A3RpdGxlBGN0A3NsaWRlc2hvdyAoZW1iZWRkZWQpBGVkAzEEaW50bAN1cwRpdGMDMARscG9zAzIEbWNvZGUDQWdCVExiWVFBRjBXRUFCY1FCQUFTVnNRQUFLRwRtaWQDdGQEbXBvcwMxBHBrZwNpZC0zNDY3ODE0BHBrZ3QDMQRwb3MDMwRzZWMDdGQtZmVhBHNsawMxMCB3b3JzdCBjYXJzIGV2ZXIgbWFkZQR0YXIDaHR0cDovL2F1dG9zLnlhaG9vLmNvbQR0ZXN0AwR2ZXJzaW9uA2xlZ28Ed29lAzIzOTc0MjY-;_ylg=X3oDMTE5bXFkMXMyBGludGwDdXMEbGFuZwNlbi11cwRwc3RhaWQDBHBzdGNhdAMEcHQDcG1o

SWEET Pic's of this ride.

My world travel especially in Europe has shown me that the S Class is a heavily used Taxi of nothing special porportions. SMK you have been drinking way too much MB Coolaid. MB Auto's are Over rated, Over priced and just plain boring.

YAWNNNNNNNNN While I am sure they will be good engines, Sewing machines these be, I will stick with my trusty V8 as history has shown little engines in bigger heavier auto's has early death.

Very Cool, I think AWD Hybrid is the way to go to get all the power that is possible down to the ground. Safer rides with better efficiency. I like it.

This. Would like to add that maybe the Omega sedan should not be named LTS but instead get a 'real' name. Escalade and the Omega woulg get 'real' names, the others would stick to 3-letter names (though I personally might favour a 4 letter naming for the crossovers - ATS-X and CTS-X) I totally agree with this, use X to refer to AWD Crossovers and then keep the name for Escalade and the Omega.

Non existent butts, the 2x2 body that French believe is the ultimate model. Real Curves ROCK! Be them on Men or Woman!
