Dealer stated on 9/26/200 that fuel pump was faulty. Replaced this...auto still did not work. Dealer stated maybe a faulty fuel pump was sent, ordered a 2nd, put this one in. Again, auto did not run. After the 1st one was installed, vehicle was released to me, 1.5 hours later, I was again stranded. Dealership said it was a cpi, something within the fuel injector system. That was replaced. It wasn't the problem. They finally stated it was 3 injectors within this unit. Those were replaced and my vehicle returned to me. Auto was in the shop from 9/26/2000 until 10/10/2000. On 10/12/2000, on route 33 westbound, my accerlerator stuck, my brakes did not work, vehicle was doing 95 MPH. I gained control of vehicle and got it stopped. It was towed from logan, ohio to columbus where I leased it from. As of right now, it's driveable, but not fixed. The dealership did secure the cruise control cable away from accerlerator so that I could drive it. I had to pay for a rental from 9/26/2000-10/10/2000. They refused to give me a loner car or rental from them. I am still afraid to drive this, I've had too much bad luck the last few weeks with it. I'm fighting with gm to be reimbursed for the rental, total amount is $533. I would like to get out of this lease, have my lease transferred to something else. As far as I know, there are no recalls on the 1999 chevrolet blazers, but I would like to know if there is any. It just seems its falling apart on me!!

The vehicle has a low idle which causis it to vibrate. Manufacturer has been notified.
