My wife and I were just driving and suddenly the motor started stopping installing. We managed to get over toward the curb and shut the motor off and restart it. Then it ran normal. When it did stall out, and we made it to the curb, it shut itself off. That was yesterday then this morning it started to do it a little bit when we left the house.

What 2021 Chevrolet Blazer owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
The thermometer and thermometer sensor are glitching . The engine temp needle will not rise at all, the engine fan will run the whole time driving and then when it is turned off will run for 10 min . Right before this happens a notice shows the guided steering is being limited. I disconnected the battery and it reset , I drove and there were no issues , next time I started my car the engine temp needle stayed down and the van started again. This car has 36k miles on it. I just bought it 2 days before it started happening
Auto braking system went off when I was at stop light & began to move forward (was 2nd in line of cars) and I accelerated. On the roadway, there are construction 'steel plates' laying on the ground in the area that all cars must drive over (I have driven over them in my same Blazer before) because we have no choice. One I pressed on gas & began moving over those plates, the Blazer stopped itself VERY abruptly & jerked my head forward & dash said I had to press on brake let off or something in order to move again - it was all very fast & I had a line of traffic behind me at 5:15 pm on a Friday (9/5/25). I'm very luck I did not get hit from behind & car behind me paid attention! That is the 3rd time my car has stopped suddenly; 2 times before it was when going up my very steep driveway so I had no one behind me & I wasn't as shook up - Chevy needs to REALLY look at this! It is a hazzard!!
Brakes bottomed out. Message on my dash board said “Brake System Failure reduce speed to 62” and the brake went on the way to the floor.
The first incident started on 08/16/2024, 2 days after buying the vehicle used from Dealership. I started getting notifications stating "Service-Front Camera not available" and sure enough, I no longer had a front camera, which then means I no longer have front collision alerts. Then I started getting the random notifications to drive carefully because drivers assistance has been reduced, and now my vehicle's fan will randomly run for up to 30 minutes after it has been shut off and even after a less than 2 mile drive to gas station and back home, it does this. Last item is the vehicle pulls to the right, and I have not hit anything nor has it ever been in an accident prior to my purchase, and my brakes squeal horribly, which shouldn't be happening condidering I haven't even driven the vehicle 5,000 miles in the year since I bought it !
"Driver Assisted Reduced Use Drive With Care Message" comes on when it is over 70 degrees outside. The temperature gage reads zero, A/C does not work, when the car is turned off the fan runs on high for an extended period of time. Showing code P0128 Used car purchase, came on 3 days after receiving vehicle from the dealership. Reset the code came on again 2.5 weeks later (5/3/2025) when the outside temperature was in the 70's
I have made numerous complaints to Jeff Schmitt Chevy dealership Dayton, Ohio regarding parking brake being engaged upon starting vehicle even though vehicle is on flat surface. Twice now, last occurring [XXX], while gradually increasing speed to make a left hand turn the vehicle suddenly self-brakes, during acceleration, making a harsh screeching sound. I remove my foot completely from the accelerator before I accelerate again. The initial incident was reported to chevy dealership. No findings have been noted per dealership. No accidents have occurred. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
The Esc display came up then sutbality sensor show and my back wheel went right. My car flipped twice and then landed on the guardrail.
The radio and all the sound notifications such as turn signals, emergency flashers, crash avoidance, cross traffic, lane departure, and the use of the emergency OnStar system do not work. this has been addressed in GM service information #PIT5971B: Loss OF Audio and OnStar LED is Red - (Apr 3, 2023) GM appears to be addressing this as an inconvenience of not having the entertainment of the radio and not the safety features associated with it. This also includes the use of hands-free cell phone.
The contact owns a 2021 Chevrolet Blazer. The contact stated that while stopped at a railroad track, the vehicle independently stopped and went into crash mode while on the railroad tracks upon acceleration. The contact shifted the vehicle into reverse and then into park. Once the vehicle was placed into drive, the vehicle resumed normal operation. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where they replaced an unknown module and performed a software update. Despite the repair, the contact stated that the failure persisted. The contact also stated that while driving at 40 mph, the traction control warning light illuminated on the instrument panel as the steering power was reduced.

The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 4,400
