I just had a run in with a dealership regarding the struts/shocks on my 02' Trailblazer. The problem is that Struts are covered under the Major Guard Warranty but Shocks are not. I have a blown left front Strut/Shock and when I had the dealer look at it he told me that it was covered and that the part would be in the next day and he would fix it. They called me back the next day and told me that the part was not covered under my warranty because it is classified as a shock. I said, "I thought you told me it was a blown strut." He replied, "It is a modified shock that just looks like a strut and it is over $400 to fix it." I was thrown. My questions is this, Do 2002 Chevy trailblazer's have Struts or Shocks. I told the dealer that it was basically a $400 dollar question because if it is a strut I'm not paying.
Thanks
