General Motors, LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2023 Cadillac XT6, GMC Acadia, Chevrolet Blazer, Traverse, and 2022-2023 Cadillac XT5 vehicles. The transmission may have been built with an incorrect sun gear, which can result in the driver-side half-shaft disengaging from the transmission.

Reliability verdict for the 2023 Chevrolet Blazer
The 2023 Chevrolet Blazer posts an 85/100 reliability score, placing it above the segment average and indicating solid overall dependability. The recall count is limited, which supports a lower-than-typical exposure to factory-corrected defects for this model year.
Complaint activity is present but not diffuse across every major system. Reports cluster most in the powertrain, with smaller secondary groupings in brakes and the engine, followed by exterior lighting and forward collision avoidance. That pattern points to a few repeat areas driving most owner friction rather than a broad, vehicle-wide reliability shortfall. As the final year of its generation, the data reads as stable rather than volatile.
Overall risk level: low to moderate, with attention centered on a handful of systems rather than widespread reliability weakness.
