Purchased 2000 blazer 11/24/00. Many problems since. Transmission cooler line, warranty repair. Oil cooler lines, upper and lower, warranty repair. Warranty expired and they are leaking still. Problem never really fixed. Idler arm, warranty repair. Driver side recline handle driver seat fell back would not return to upright position, warranty repair. Both front wheel bearings and rotors, warranty repair. From day 1 numerous rattles and squeaks. Door panels rattle constantly. Passenger seat rattles and squeaks. Windshield wiper entire arm came off, repaired at my expense. Out of warranty, at 41,699 miles but not even (2) years old, transmission had to be rebuilt at my expense. Chevy customer service is a joke! Cost of transmission $2,442 and the cost of a two week car rental. Even when transmission line had to be repaired we had to rent a car at our expense because local dealer refused to supply a loaner. Again chevy customer service a joke! Called chevy hot line/help line and was just given the run around. I will never buy chevy american made auto again. Why is it you can buy any item at most department stores and take it back and receive satisfaction, but spend $25,000+ for a chevy product and you are screwed when you simply want the reliability and service you were promised. I tell every person I meet not to buy a chevy. Solid like a rock? What a lie!
Suspension front and rear-upper and lower ball joints(front)left and right sides idler arm and both rear leaf springs needed to be replaced. Warped rotors left and right. Left door lock cylinder fell off. Dealer replaced right rear speaker under warranty. Front seat recliner levers replaced resulting in split cost with dealer. Manufacturer rep offered labor/parts split for suspension work and brake work for $1400.00. Refused work on door lock in excess of $300.00.
While driving vehicle will go into 4 wheel drive by itself, which result in loss of control of vehicle that almost caused an accident. Please provide more details. Ts
The 2000 chevy blazer is a mechanical and saftey nightmare! This vehicle was purchased brand new/lease and I have had problems from the beginning. The exhaust has never sounded normal; it has a preignition (rattle-like) noise, and I was recently told that the catalytic converter is bad. The alternator failed at approximately 12000 miles. The hazard lights failed in april 2002, and the brake lights failed shortly after. The steering problems include: clunking when turning to the left, a shift in the front end (feels like the front pass. Side steering components are loose). The vehicle is almost impossible to control on freeway due to loose steering and inability to control on transitioning/uneven pavement. The dealer has replaced front pass-side tierod and stabilizer, and the steering wheel now has a 12-15degree, off-center, right list. Cutter cheverolet of hawaii is now having us try to reproduce the problem(s), and trying everything they can to not accept that the vehicle is, in fact, a "lemon"! What does it take to prove that a vehicle is just not a good vehicle; does my family have to get injured or die to prove there is a problem! We are a "gm-family"(entitled to gm family discounts), and this is how we get treated. . .no acceptence of responsibility or pride/honesty in their product. I will never buy another gm product; ever! The dealership, gm factory, and gmac should rightfully accept responsibility and take the vehicle back. I have better things to pay $384.00 per month! Japanese atomotive industry. . .here we come! ~ don schrader, pearl harbor, hawaii.
A mechanism within the steering column causes the vehicle to lose rear brake lights, the vehicle has been to the dealer on 3 occasions for this problem, the consumer was told by the dealer that there is a national backorder on the mechanism. Nlm hazard, turn signal and stop lamps are also inoperative. Consumer has filed a complaint with consumer protection division.
