What 1998 Chevrolet S/T Blazer owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
My drivers door has had the pins and bushing repaired 5 times. I own 2 chevy blazers , and have this problem with both. I was driving to work one morning , turned a curve and my door flew open. Was un able to close door, drove to work holding my door shut. I work in a metal shop, one of our welders re welded the stricker plate. This held for a month or so. It now has been repaired 3 times and is starting to be costly to my pocket. I have talked to many people who own or owned chevy blazers and this is very common. There should be some sort of improvement made to repair these. I feel like this is a safety issue. After all , my door flew open into on coming traffic.
Windshield wipes work intermittently, run and cut off with no warning or don't work at all.
