Vehicle will stall and /or die when coming to complete stops, turning corners, and idling. Replaced ecg valve twice problem still there. The stalling and dying seem to get worse when gas tank is below 1/4. Started rough when running bad I am now on my 3rd starter in 8 months. The first problem was 4 days after I had owned the vehicle. Died on corner and would not start. Ecg valve changed and computer read no other problems.

Vehicle had a no start condition. Mechanic thought issue was the fuel pump and replaced it. Vehicle started, but about 2 weeks later vehicle stalled out in the middle of traffic. Consumer notified chevy and was told there was a special recall on the cmfi unit, but vehicle was over the mileage to qualify. It seemed that the problem resulted from the fuel used in california. Consumer was never made aware of special recall. California owners should be made aware of the problem.

Cfi injector unit has gone bad twice, at 58800 miles and again 18 months later, chevy dealer admits is a common problem. Can only get replacement part from gm at $500 a piece. Part leaks fuel and engine will not start. Why hasn't this been a recall? It is a very profitable situation for chevrolet. *jb ******dimsii ivoq entry posted after 12/12/02 cut-over to artemis****739786***

You have numerous complaints on the 1995 chevrolet blazer...then why doesnt something be done about this vehicle....? I have been stranded 4 times with my children in the car....3 for the egr valve.. And now it just cranks and wont start....I have had this car for 14 months and this first started in june 1999 3 months after purchasing this car......look at all the complaints......a mechanic stated the egr valve is at a 45degree angle and should be at 90 degree angle so it does not clog.....I am in the process of filing a lawsuit against chevrolet on this vehicle and everyone else should do the same.......it is just an overpriced piece of crap........1 that you cannot count on taking you to town... Which is bad......

Vehicle won't start up and their is a smell of gas within the vehicle due to the central port injector that went out within the vehicle.

There is an anti-freeze leak. Also, freeze plugs on engine block had to be replaced, battery died out/vehicle wouldn't start, and egr valve had to be replaced. Dealer says they can't find anything wrong. Problems started with the egr valve. *ak

Have had major engine problems since first year of ownership. Had to replace battery 3 times (first time within first year), have been stranded because of a "no-start" problem 6 times since purchase, dealer and two other mechanics cannot find cause, brakes have a very poor performance and must be replaced frequently, fuel pump replaced, ignition replaced, now the engine has "blown" all on a vehicle that has been properly maintained and not abused. This is the most unreliable, costly, stress-cuasing vehicle I have ever owned and I would like chevrolet to take some responsibility for a very poorly built (lemon) car.
