For a while, the owner of a troubled Chevrolet Trailblazer had to have felt like she was in a very expensive game of bingo. Every trip to a maintenance center resulted in a different problem being called out, each of them costly and ineffective.
The Facebook Reel from Chris Losser, co-owner of Bessemer Ave. Automotive Rehab in Pennsylvania, gives a breakdown of the repair steps that had been taken prior to the Chevy's arrival. First came a replacement brake caliper, hose, and pads, then there was more than $800 in dealership diagnostics, an engine-replacement recommendation, and a fresh set of ignition coils.
And none of it stopped the Trailblazer from losing power, fighting the steering wheel, and shaking down the road.
“After all of that, the problem was still there. When she brought it to us, we didn't assume anybody was right or wrong, so we just diagnosed it ourselves,” Losser said as he walks viewers through the diagnosis process in the video that has been viewed more than 418,000 times. “The unfortunate part is the customer spent well over $1,000 on diagnostics and repairs that did not solve the complaints you originally had.”
