The consumer has been experiencing problems with muffler. Muffler makes a loud noise. In addition, the muffler has a hole in it due to corrosion.
While traveling at 30mph the oil cooler holes came apart from the engine block, causing all the oil to leak out. Also disabled the vehicle while in traffic. Dealer has been contacted.
Auto had been running very rough using excessive fuel. Came to a stop and did not have enough compression for power brakes & steering. Check engine light came on. Went immediately to have it checked. Found egr valve inoperable. Called gm they said their was no bulletin. Found bulletin on your web site.
None
While driving 15-20 MPH the vehicle lost all braking power without any indication. Please provide further information.
While driving the braking system malfunctioned,causing extended stopping distance and brake pedal going to the floor, which almost caused an accident.also, egr valve malfunctioned.
Was going 45mph when the ABS brakes were applied, the ABS brakes failed to stop the vehicle. Quickly. Went across an intersection & was nearly hit. Vehicle finally stopped. Took to dealer & nothing wrong was found with brakes. Vehicle overheats & passenger's door does not unlock.*ak battery failed. Knocking noise comes from front end on right and left turn. Yh
Muffler rusted and leaking, exhaust system failed including catalytic converter.
Difficult with engine causing difficulty in starting, violent shaking, engine stalling which resulted in the "check engine" light coming on.
When vehicle was purchased used it did not have a gas cap causing fumes to enter the passenger compartment.
Vehicle stalls/engine quits running while driving and will not restart. Problem is intermittent. Dealers cannot correct problem.
Excessive battery use.
While driving vehicle stalls for no reason. Numerous parts have been replaced, such as fuel pump/ spark plugs/ cpi injector and egr valve, sensor, lock cylinder, battery, 3-2 shift solenoid, fuel filter, and performed fuel pressure test. Problem remains. *ak
The defective egr valve, causing the carbon to break up in valve in which it clogs the valve, causing loss of pressure, resulting in loss of braking ability. Dealer replaced egr valve. Dealer cannot determine problem.
This is a documented problem with the gmc jimmy, which is the same vehicle as the s10 blazer. Gmc has issued a technical service bulletin for the jimmy. I am once again replacing this expensive part. When the egr valve fails, the vehicle shuts down or runs roughly causing the power brakes to lose their vacuum, which in turn makes the vehicle unsafe and potentially dangerous.
When egr valve fails vehicle loses power brake capabilities. Problem occurs without warning. Cause unknown.
Engine check light came on. When taken in for the service, the mechanic stated that the egr valve was stuck. The valve was taken out, cleaned and replaced at owner's expense. A week later the light was on back again. The problem has not been corrected. The manufacturer is not willing to replaced the egr valve because the blazer is out of the warranty.
Vehicle continuously cuts off while driving, unable to determine cause.
Vehicle stopped on the highway, replace catalytic converter, before this occured, transmission replaced, ox sensor and leaking vacuum switch to blame for poor acceleration and gas mileage, also slippage and leak from transmission due to transfer case and inner seal and gasket problems, replace.
Windshield wipers stopped working.
Driving 60mph when vehicle stalled out or died. Had to take to dealer & mechanic replaced fuel pump. Problem had reoccurred since 3/6/98 when pump was replaced. Also, steering wheel would lock up. Problem happened after fuel pump was replaced.
Vehicle hesitates when merging. Fan clutch causes vehicle to hesitate & makes a lot of noise. Ongoing intermittent problem. Would periodically shift itself from 2 wheel drive to 4 wheel drive. Took to dealer & mechanic said knew about fan clutch, but unable to repair.
Whenever the brake pedal is depressed, the ABS braking system would lock up. Vehicle would continue at same rate of speed. Took to dealer & had it checked. Had egr valve replaced. Was an intermittent, random problem.
Emission control system failed. Also engine check light comes on and goes off intermittently.
E.c.v. Failed, causing loss of power brakes.
Windshield wiper/washer fails constantly.
Egr valve sticks, causing vehicle to lose braking power.
Oxygen sensor failed.
