MY HAZARDS AND BRAKE LIGHTS DON'T TURN ON.
May 18, 2019
MY 2001 BLAZER'S BRAKE LIGHTS STOPPED WORKING DURING A RECENT DRIVE, AND ANOTHER DRIVER WAS KIND ENOUGH TO POINT THIS OUT AT A STOPLIGHT. THE NEXT DAY THE BRAKE LIGHTS WORKED AGAIN, BUT REMAINED ON AFTER I SHUT OFF THE ENGINE. MY MECHANIC WAS ABLE TO DETERMINE THE PROBLEM WAS THE MULTIFUNCTION SWITCH ON THE STEERING COLUMN. THIS WAS A KNOWN ISSUE (GM RECALL NUMBER 01073) AND GM RECALLED A NUMBER OF THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL OF VEHICLES, BUT MY BLAZER'S VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE OFFICIAL RECALL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 CHEVROLET BLAZER. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS BEING SERVICED BY AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR ROUTINE MAINTENANCE, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE BRAKE LIGHTS FAILED TO ILLUMINATE. THE MECHANIC DIAGNOSED THAT THE MULTI-FUNCTION SWITCH NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 01V364000 (EXTERIOR LIGHTING). THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 95,000.

2001 BLAZER FWD, ABS ACTIVATION AT LOW SPEEDS IMPEDING ALL MANUAL BRAKING FUNCTIONS. *TR

ABS SYSTEM KICKS IN AT VERY LOW SPEED AND OVERRIDES NORMAL BRAKING. *TR
Feb 09, 2010
IN THREE DIFFERENT OCCASIONS, 2 IN 06 AND 2 IN 07 THE BRAKES FAILED TO STOP IT'S AN INTERMITTENT INCIDENT. IN 06 AFTER INCIDENT, MASTER CYLINDER BRAKE WAS CHANGED (NOT KEEP OLD PART). AFTER THIRD INCIDENT, I TOOK IT TO DEALER. THEIR RESPONSE WAS NOTHING WRONG. BUT ON MY INTERVIEW WITH HEAD TECHNICIAN, MENTIONED THAT COULD BE THE ABS ACTIVATING, LIKE READING FALSE INSTRUCTIONS. WHAT COULD BE DONE, HE SAID TO CHANGE THE SENSORS BUT THERE WERE THREE ON THE CAR AND THOSE WERE EXPENSIVE AND THEN THERE ARE MORE OTHER COMPONENTS TO THE ABS THAT COULD ALSO BE THE CAUSE OF FAILURE. I STARTED TO INVESTIGATE ON THE INTERNET TO UNDERSTAND THE ABS AND THEN TO SEE IF I WAS THE ONLY ONE, AND THEN LOOKING FOR RECALLS. I CAME TO AN ARTICLE THAT DESCRIBED THE FAILURE EXACTLY AS IT HAS HAPPENED TO ME ALL THESE PAST EVENTS AND READS:...SIDEBAR: WHAT ARE THE MOST COMMON FAILURES WITH ABS THAT YOU HAVE DETECTED FROM YOUR VEHICLE INSPECTIONS? FOLCK: WELL, IN THE GENERAL MOTORS TRUCKS AND VANS, THE 4-WHEEL KELSEY-HAYES ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM. THE BRAKE PEDAL IS SUPPOSED TO JUST PULSATE A LITTLE BIT AND STAY IN POSITION, BUT SOMETIMES IT GOES TO THE FLOOR. SIDEBAR: WHAT DOES THAT INDICATE WHEN IT GOES TO THE FLOOR? FOLCK: THAT THERE IS A FAILURE IN THE ABS. THEY HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THEIR ALGORITHM, AND IT WON?T SET A FAILURE CODE IN THE KELSEY-HAYES 4-WHEEL. IN LAYMEN?S TERMS, AN ALGORITHM IS A SEQUENCE OF FUNCTIONS THE COMPUTER IS SUPPOSED TO TAKE. THERE ARE GLITCHES IN THE ALGORITHM, AND GM HAS ACKNOWLEDGED THE ALGORITHM FAILURES. (EDS. NOTE: SEE THE ARTICLE IN THE MONEY SECTION OF USA TODAY, "GM: COMPUTER GLITCH COULD AFFECT BRAKES", 05/22/98.)" ... FIRST OF ALL, MY SAFETY IS FIRST AND THE MANUFACTURER HAS TO FIX THIS PROBLEM RIGHT AWAY. I AM NOT IN THE POSITION OF SELLING THE CAR SINCE I AM STILL PAYING DEARLY FOR IT AND SECOND, I WOULD NOT LIKE TO PASS THIS PROBLEM TO SOMEONE ELSE. *TR

HAD A TERRIBLY LOUD NOISE IN THE FRONT END OF OUR 2001 CHEVY BLAZER AND FOUND OUT IT WAS A FRONT WHEEL HUB AND BEARING ASSEMBLY, COST $439.81. NOW ONE YEAR LATER THE OTHER SIDE HAS GONE AND HAD TO BE REPLACED, WE HAVE ALMOST $900. INTO THIS REPAIR THAT I NOW SEE APPEARS TO BE A FREQUENT PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE. GENERAL MOTORS NEEDS TO BE ACCOUNTABLE FOR THERE PRODUCTS, EITHER ON THERE OWN OR FORCED TO DO SOME TYPE OF RECALL. WE ALSO HAD TO HAVE THE BRAKE LIGHT RECALL TAKEN CARE OF
Dec 29, 2006
MY 2001 CHEVY BLAZER HAD UNEVEN TIRE WEAR INDICATING THE NEED FOR A FRONT END ALIGNMENT. DURING THE INSPECTION I WAS INFORMED THAT THE LOWER BALL JOINTS HAD TO BE REPLACED AS WELL AS THE IDLER ARM AND SHOULD DO THE UPPER JOINTS AS WELL. I HAD NEVER HEARD OF A VEHICLE WITH 56,000 MILES NEEDING TO HAVE THIS DONE. OF COURSE, NOW I HEAR OF MANY OWNERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. THE UNEXPECTED $900 BILL WAS NOT PLEASANT! THE MECHANIC SAID IT WAS A COMMON PROBLEM THAT HE SAW WITH CHEVY PRODUCTS. DO I HAVE ANY CHANCE OF BEING COMPENSATED FOR THE LESS THAN QUALITY PARTS INSTALLED ON MY VEHICLE?

BRAKE LIGHTS FAIL TO ILLUMINATE, HAZARD FLASHER INTERMITTENTLY WORKS, TOP CENTER BRAKE LIGHT WORKS AS IT SHOULD. REPLACED THE FLASHER UNIT TO NO AVAIL. DETERMINED TO BE A DEFECTIVE TURN SIGNAL-MULTIFUNCTION SWITCH. RESEARCHED THE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS AND SAW THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM BUT ACCORDING TO THE DEALER MY VEHICLE DOES NOT FIT IT TO THE RECALL.

TRANSMISSION COOLER LINES BETWEEN THE RADIATOR AND TRANSMISSION ARE CORRODED AND PITTED. THE LINES ARE INSTALLED OVER THE EXHAUST CATALYTIC CONVERTER. THERE IS TRANSMISSION FLUID LEAKING FROM THE LINES, WHICH IS DRIPPING ONTO HOT EXHAUST COMPONENTS AND BURNING, CREATING A FIRE HAZARD. THESE LINES APPEAR TO BE STAINLESS STEEL, WHICH SHOULDN'T BE CORRODING. THE LINES SHOULD NOT BE IN SUCH CLOSE PROXIMITY TO EXHAUST COMPONENTS. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS NOT RUNNING/IN MOTION, TRANSMISSION FLUID POOLS ON THE GROUND UNDER THE VEHICLE. IN MOTION, THE FLUID IS BEING BLOWN REARWARD, COATING THE UNDERCARRIAGE AND EXHAUST.

MY FRIENDS BORROWED MY VEHICLE, A 2001 CHEVY BLAZER, AND WENT CAMPING IN THE MOUNTAINS. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AT A LOCATION THAT COULD HAVE BEEN VERY DANGEROUS DUE TO THIS FAILURE, IT WAS NEAR A CREEK BANK WITH A DROP OF APPROXIMATELY 30 FEET. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED AND PUT INTO REVERSE ALL IT WOULD DO IS COAST FORWARD WHICH COULD HAVE BEEN VERY DANGEROUS IF THEY DID NOT REACT IN TIME AS IT COULD HAVE WENT OVER A CLIFF. FORTUNATELY THEY WERE IN AN AREA WHERE THERE WAS A PAY PHONE. THEY WERE STAYING AT A STATE PARK AND THERE ARE MANY AREAS THAT ARE VERY REMOTE AND ARE SEVERAL MILES AWAY FROM PHONES OR PEOPLE. I WAS ADVISED BY AAMCO TRANSMISSION THAT THEY SEE THIS TRANSMISSION PROBLEM ON A REGULAR BASIS AND IT IS CAUSED BECAUSE THE REACTION SUN SHELL WAS MADE OF AN INFERIOR METAL AND EVEN IN REPAIR TECHNICAL BULLETINS IT SPECIFIES TO REPAIR PROBLEM BY REPLACING WITH A "MORE ROBUST HEAT TREATED REACTION SUN SHELL". WHEN THIS OCCURS, IT ALSO AFFECTS SECOND AND FOURTH GEARS. IN ORDER TO REPAIR THIS PROBLEM THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED COMPLETELY REBUILT AT A PRICE OF $2,326.38 PLUS A TOWING BILL. *NM

The contact's girlfriend owns a 2001 Chevrolet Blazer. The contact stated that fuel was leaking from the top of the fuel tank. There was an abnormal fuel odor detected. Additionally, the vehicle was slow to start. There were no warning lights illuminated. The contact called the local dealer however, the vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The contact was concerned about the fuel odor and a possible fire. The failure mileage was unknown.

FUEL GAUGE FLUCTUATES BETWEEN EMPTY AND 1/3 FULL WITHOUT WARNING. THIS HAPPENS IN PARK AND WHEN DRIVING. YOU NEVER KNOW HOW MUCH GAS YOU HAVE. I HAVE SEEN IT DROP FORM 1/4 FULL TO COMPLETELY EMPTY IN SECONDS. I HAVE RUN OUT OF GAS ON WAY TO WORK WHEN GAS GAUGE SAID 1/4 FULL WHEN I STARTED OFF TO WORK, ONLY A COUPLE OF MILES AWAY. I HAVE TOLD LOCAL CHEVY DEALER ( H & H ) ABOUT PROBLEM WHEN HAVING SERVICE BUT THEY SAID THAT WAS NOT A PROBLEM, WAS PROBABLY BECAUSE YOU WERE ON A SLOPE. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM SINCE I ORIGINALLY PURCHASED SUV NEW. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNED A 2001 CHEVROLET BLAZER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR PUMP FILLED WITH WATER AND FROZE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALERSHIP WHERE THE AIR PUMP WAS REPLACED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 40,000. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 60,000.
May 05, 2010
THE ELECTRIC SMOG PUMP ON MY 2001 CHEVY BLAZER HAD FAILED WHEN PUMP FILLED WITH WATER AND SHORTED OUT. THIS IS CAUSED DUE TO THE SHORT INTAKE HOSE TO THE PUMP. THIS IS AN APPARENT KNOWN ISSUE WITH GM, BUT THEY WILL NOT REPLACE THE PUMP. THIS ALSO CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO FAIL EMISSIONS TESTING. GM WANTED $400 FOR THE PUMP + LABOR TO REPAIR THE ISSUE. ONCE THE PART BECAME AVAILABLE FOR 3RD PARTY VENDORS, WE WERE ABLE TO REPLACE THE PUMP OURSELVES, ADDED A LONGER INTAKE HOSE, AND THE VEHICLE NOW RUNS CORRECTLY. I FEEL THAT SINCE GM IS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE AND IT ADVERSELY EFFECTS THE EMISSION CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE, THE REPAIR SHOULD BE GM'S RESPONSIBILITY. *TR

THERE IS AN ERROR CODE IN TEH COMPUTER P0410 THE SECONDARY INJECTOR NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AGAIN AND AGAIN, IT WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY THE FIRST TIME. THEN WEMOVED TO MASSACHUSETTS AND THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN WHICH I THEN GOT IT FIXED AND PAID FOR IT ON MY OWN BECAUSE IT WASN'T UNDER WARRANTY, AND THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN WITH TEH SAME CODE P0410 THE SECONDARY AIR INJECTOR. I HAVEN'T BEEN ABEL TO GET THE VEHICLE INSPECTED DUE TO TEH ERROR CODE BECUASE IT CAUSED AN EMMSISIONS FAILURE. THE SECOND TIME COST ME $400, I'VE LOOKED ON THE INTERNET ONLY TO FIND THAT MANY OTHER POEPLE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AND NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED AS OF YET. I HAVE CONTACTED CHEVROLET ABOUT THE PROBLEM, WHICH TO NO AVAIL THEY WOULD NOT COVER THE PART ORANY COST OF A NEW ONE. THE VEHICLE WAS STILL NOT INSPECTED NOR WILL EVER BE BECAUSE REPLACING THE PART APPERENTLY WASN'T THE PROBLEM. IS THERE ANYTHING THE NHTSA COULD DO IN THIS SITUATION? *AK

I OWN A 2001 CHEVY BLAZER. LOST HEAT IN JAN. 2004. TOOK IT TO DEALER. THEY FLUSHED THE SYSTEM AND REPLACED THERMOSTAT. 3 TO 4 WEEKS LATER THE SAME THING . THEY CLEANED OUT FILTER. 30 DAYS LATER IT HAPPENED AGAIN. THEY SAID THE FILTER WAS CLOGGED AGAIN. AS THE WEATHER WARMED UP I DIDN'T NEED THE HEAT. AS THE COLDER WEATHER APPROACHED AGAIN, USED THE HEAT 2 TIMES AND THE 3 RD TIME THE HEATER CORE WENT OUT COMPLETELY. WHEN I RETURNED TO THE DEALER THERE WERE ABOUT 10 OTHER BLAZERS THERE FOR THE SAME REASON. THEY SAY IT IS OUR PROBLEM NOW. NOW WITHOUT HEAT AND HAVE TO KEEP AIR CONDITIONER ON AND STILL SMELL COOLANT INSIDE THE VEHICLE. IF THERE IS THAT MANY VEHICLES WITH THE SAME PROBLEM THEN , I WOULD SAY IT WAS DEFECTIVE PARTS USED. TO REPLACE THE PART IS ALMOST $200. AND WITH LABOR OVER $600. TO HAVE TO PUT OUT THAT KIND OF MONEY ON VEHICLE THAT IS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD IS WRONG FOR CONSUMERS. TO LEAVE IT UNATTENDED COULD BE A HEALTH HAZARD, WITH COOLANT ENTERING THE INSIDE OF THE VEHICLE. *JB

ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, IN THE MORNINGS WHEN BLAZER IS COLD AND THE WEATHER IS COLD, I HAVE HEARD A RUMBLING NOISE WHEN I TURN THE STEERING WHEEL TO THE LEFT. ONCE THE VEHICLE IS WARMED UP THE NOISE GOES AWAY. THE FIRST DAY I TOOK THE THE SHOP, THE REPAIR MAN SAID IT WAS UNUSUAL BUT HE DID HEAR THE NOISE AND SAID IT SOUNDED LIKE IT WAS IN THE STEERING SHAFT. HE MADE AN APPOINTMENT FOR THE FOLLOWING DAY. WHILE CHECKING THE VEHICLE THEY DID NOT HEAR THE NOISE. A WEEK LATER, IT WAS EXTREMELY COLD AND SNOWING, THE NOISE RETURNED I STOPPED ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK AND ANOTHER MECHANIC HEARD THE NOISE, HE FELT IT WAS IN THE POWER STEERING SYSTEM AND MADE AN APPOINTMENT FOR THE FOLLOWING DAY. ON THIS APPOINTMENT, THEY COULD HEAR THE NOISE BUT " IT WAS NOT LOUD ENOUGH TO PINPOINT WHERE IT WAS COMING FROM" SO THEY RETURNED THE VEHICLE TO ME. HE MADE ARRANGEMENTS TO KEEP THE VEHICLE OVER NIGHT AND GIVE ME A RENTAL CAR. I TOLD THEM THAT THEY SHOULD CHECK IT FIRST THING IN THE MORNING AS SOON AS THEY GOT THERE. WHICH THEY DID NOT DO. THEY WAITED UNTIL I RETURNED LATER IN THE MORNING TO TEST THE VEHICLE AND IT HAD WARMED UP OUTSIDE AND COULD NOT BE HEARD. THEY CLAIM THEY HAVE CHECKED THE POWER STEERING SYSTEM AND EVERYTHING IS FINE. I AM AFRAID THAT SOMETHING MAY HAPPEN TO THE STEERING WHEEL OR INSIDE THE STEERING SYSTEM WHILE DRIVING AND I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO STEER THE VEHICLE OR COULD BE IN AN ACCIDENT AND POSSIBLE INJURE MYSELF OR SOMEONE ELSE. *LA

THE CAR WAS A PROBLEM FROM THE DAY WE PURCHASED IT. ONE WEEK INTO OWNERSHIP THE STEERING GEARBOX HAD TO BE REPLACED. 26,000 MILES LATER THE RIGHT WHEEL HUB ASSEMBLY FAILED. FAST FORWARD TO FEB 25, 2003 WHILE DRIVING HOME HER BLAZER TURNED RIGHT AND LOCK TO THE RIGHT. FROM DAY ONE WE ALWAYS HEARD A POPPING NOISE BUT THE DEALER SAID THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD FOUND. GM STATES THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WE HIRED A LAWYER. THANK YOU MYCARSTATS.COM FOR YOUR COMPLAINT BOARD. *LA

THIS PROBLEM FIRST OCCURRED AT ABOUT 4600 MILES. I TOOK THE TIRE TO HAVE IT REPAIRED AT THE TIRE SHOP I USE. THEY TOLD ME IT HAD SOME BELT SEPARATION. I THEN WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I HAD PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE MANAGER TO TAKE IT TO GOODYEAR. I TOOK IT TO GOODYEAR AND THEY TOLD ME THAT SINCE MY SPARE TIRE WAS ALREADY ON THAT I SHOULD KEEP IT ON AND THAT THE TIRE ONLY NEEDED A FLAT REPAIR. IN SEPTEMBER 2001 I STARTED TO NOTICE A SLIGHT THUMPING NOISE COMING FROM MY VEHICLE I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP IN OCTOBER 2001 THEY REPLACED A FRONT WHEEL BEARING AND THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL BUT STILL THE THUMP. THEY TOLD ME IT WAS A FLAT SPOT ON THE TIRE AND THAT I HAD TWO BAD TIRES AND NEEDED TO GO BACK TO GOODYEAR. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THAT THE OTHER TIRE WAS BAD TOO, NOT WHAT GOODYEAR TOLD ME APPROX. 8 MONTHS EARLIER. I AM BEING TOLD THESE TIRE PROBLEMS ARE CAUSED BY MY DRIVING. I KNOW THIS IS NOT THE CASE, I HAD A BLAZER 3 YRS PRIOR TO THIS ONE WITH A DIFFERENT BRAND OF TIRES AND NOT ONCE DID I HAVE ANY PROBLEMS. *AK (TIRESIZE: P235/70R15)

Aug 16, 2022
I BOUGHT MY 2001 BLAZER FOR THE SOLE PURPOSE OF HAVING A FAMILY CAR THAT WAS NOT TOO EXPENSIVE. I WANTED AN SUV SO WHEN WE HAD A CHILD I COULD PLACE THE CAR SEAT IN THE REAR CENTER POSITION- THE SAFEST POSITION IN AN EVENT OF A CRASH. MY DAUGHTER IS NOW 8 MONTHS OLD AND IN RESEARCHING CAR SEATS FOR 1 YEAR OLDS I HAVE FOUND THAT IN MY OWNER'S MANUAL IT STATES "DO NOT USE CENTER SEAT POSITIONS FOR CHILD RESTRAINTS. THE RESTRAINT WILL NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY." THAT IS ALL IT SAID. I HAVE TRIED OVER AND OVER TO GET AN ANSWER AS TO WHY THE SEAT BELT WILL NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. I DO NOT WANT TO WAIT UNTIL THE EVENT OF A CRASH TO FIND OUT. THIS ISSUE IS ONE I BELIEVE WOULD BE EXTREMELY IMPORTANT TO EVERY MOTHER OUT THERE WHO DRIVES THIS VEHICLE IF THEY KNEW WHAT THE MANUAL SAYS. WHO WOULD THINK THAT IF THERE IS A SEAT BELT IN THE REAR CENTER POSITION DESIGNED TO HOLD AN OLDER CHILD OR ADULT WOULD NOT BE FIT TO HOLD A CAR SEAT? I HAVE CALLED CHEVROLET AND THE ONLY ANSWER THEY HAD FOR ME WAS THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DESIGNED THAT WAY. THEY SAY NOT TO PUT A CHILD RESTRAINT IN THAT POSITION. BUT THE ONLY QUESTION I HAVE IS WHY AND NO ONE CAN TELL ME THE REASON. I WOULD JUST LIKE AN ANSWER OR AT LEAST THE OTHER MOTHERS OUT THERE WHO JUST WANT THE SAFEST FOR THEIR CHILD TO KNOW. MY INFANT SEAT FITS GREAT IN THE REAR CENTER POSITION, IT IS SO SNUG THAT I CAN'T BUDGE IT. BUT LIKE I SAID I DO NOT WANT TO WAIT UNTIL A CRASH TO DISCOVER A DEFECT IN THE SEAT BELT. *NM

THE WORK WAS DONE AT GOOD CHEVROLET IN RENTON, WA THE SEAT BELT SIMPLY STOPPED LATCHING SHORTLY AFTER MY VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BY GM........ OBVIOUSLY CHEVROLET DID NOT COMPLETELY FIX ALL REPAIRS COVERED BY THE WARRANTY. I NEED GM TO ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY FOR EXPENSES FOR THE SEAT BELT, BECAUSE I'M DISABLED AND ON SOCIAL SECURITY AND COULD NEVER AFFORD TO HAVE A SEAT BELT REPAIRED. I HAD TO COORDINATE WITH MY DEALERSHIP FOR SEVERAL WEEKS BEFORE REPAIRS COULD BEGIN...THIS ATE UP TIME THAT COULD HAVE BEEN USEFUL FOR FIXING THE SEAT BELT THE WARRANTY REPAIRS WERE DONE AT GOOD CHEVROLET IN RENTON. THE SEAT BELT COULD HAVE BEEN REPAIRED AT THE SAME TIME I HAVEN'T HAD ANY OTHER REPAIRS DONE OUTSIDE THE WARRANTY. ALL REPAIRS TO DATE WERE COVERED BY THE WARRANTY............. IF THE SEAT BELT HAD JUST WENT DEFECTIVE TWO OR THREE MONTHS AGO IT WOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED..............OR IF I HADN'T BEEN MADE TO WAIT FOR APPROVAL FOR REPAIRS FROM THE DEALERSHIP IF IT WEREN'T SOMETHING IMPORTANT AND SAFETY RELATED I WOULDN'T ASK FOR HELP!!!! PLEASE........ IF IT WERE SOMETHING MUNDANE LIKE THE POWER WINDOWS STOPPED WORKING OR THE STEREO WENT HAYWIRE, BUT THE SEAT BELT IS SOMETHING I CAN'T JUST DO WITHOUT!!!! *JB SENT : FRIDAY, AUGUST 4, 2006 9:33 PM TO : [email protected] CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP SPECIALIST: SUZANNE BRAWN THIS OFFICE GATHERS INFORMATION AND BASED ON THAT INFORMATION DETERMINES THE BEST METHOD OF HANDLING. AGAIN, I HAVE REVIEWED YOUR FILE 1-399386265 AND I SUPPORT THE DECISION THAT HAS BEEN PREVIOUSLY STATED TO YOU. I APOLOGIZE THAT THIS DECISION WAS NOT IN ACCORDANCE WITH YOUR WISHES.

ON THREE DIFFERENT OCCASIONS MY 2001 CHEVROLET BLAZER HAS NEARLY CAUSED ME TO HAVE A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT. TWICE WHILE JUST DRIVING ALONG AT A NORMAL RATE, THE MOTOR SPED UP TO PROBABLY 70 OR 80 MPH CREATING A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. IT WAS VERY LUCKY THAT THERE WAS NOTHING IN FRONT OF ME. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING DEFECT WITH THIS VEHICLE. THE SERVICE MANAGER STATES THAT THIS A VERY DANGEROUS DEFECT IN MY CAR. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT AS EACH TIME THEY SAY IT IS REPAIRED, IT HAS HAPPENED ONCE AGAIN. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SITUATION WHICH COULD EASILY LEAD TO A DREADFUL ACCIDENT AND LOSS OF LIFE. IT IS MY OPINION THAT GENERAL MOTORS SHOULD OFFER ME A NEW VEHICLE IN PLACE OF THE VERY DANGEROUS ONE I NOW OWN. I COULD NOT, IN GOOD FAITH, CONSIDER SELLING IT KNOWING HOW DANGEROUS IT IS. FORTUNATELY THERE HAS NOT BEEN AN ACCIDENT WITH IT, BUT I FEEL THAT IT COULD EASILY HAPPEN. ON ALL THREE OCCASIONS, MY DEALER, BUZZ CHEW, SOUTHAMPTON, NY HAS BEEN APPRISED OF THIS DEFECT AND ATTEMPTED TO FIX IT, BUT IT IS ONLY A TEMPORARY FIX. IT IS ALSO A KNOW FACT THAT OTHER VEHICLES OF THE SAME MAKE HAVE HAD THE SAME ONGOING DEFECT. *JB

ON JANUARY 14, 2005 I TOOK THE VEHICLE IN FOR ITS STATE INSPECTION IN NC AND FOUND OUT THAT THE LEFT WHEEL HUB WAS SO LOOSE THAT THE WHOLE WHEEL WAS ABOUT TO COME OFF. THE ODOMETER READ 68267. TODAY (8/13/2005) MY WIFE CAME HOME FROM CHURCH AND TOLD ME THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE BLAZER. THE ABS LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. I WAS CURIOUS SO I JACKED UP THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE AND COME TO FIND OUT THE RIGHT WHEEL IS ABOUT TO COME OFF. THE HUB IS THAT LOOSE.

ALL 4 FRONT & REAR ROTORS RUSTED OUT CAUSING THE REPLACEMENT OF ALL FRONT & REAR BRAKE PADS & ROTORS TO BE REPLACED.FOR ALL 4 ROTORS TO RUST OUT AT THE SAME TIME AND AT SUCH LOW MILEAGE REQUIRES ME TO COMPLAIN. IT WAS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN. I COMPLAINED TO THE CHEVY DIVISION WITH NO RESULTS. I WAS TOLD IT WAS NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR, WHICH I THINK IS REDICULOUS. I OWNED CHEVIES MOST OF MY LIFE AND I NEVER HAD A PROBLEM LIKE THIS. I COULD SEE ONE OR TWO ROTORS GOING BAD BUT NOT 4 AT THE SAME TIME.ESPECIALLY RUSTING OUT.

THE PARKING BRAKE ON MY 2001 BLAZER DOES NOT WORK WHEN THE VEHICLE IS PARKED "NOSE-UP" ON AN INCLINE. (VEHICLE HAS REAR DISC BRAKES WITH A SMALL DRUM/SHOE PARKING BRAKE.) THE DEALER TOLD ME THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE PARKING BRAKE, I.E. IT IS NOT SUPPOSSED TO HOLD THE VEHICLE IN THIS POSITION, PARKING BRAKE WILL ONLY HOLD THE VEHICLE IN THE "NOSE-DOWN" POSITION ON AN INCLINE. THE DEALER TOLD ME IT WOULD BE A WASTE OF MONEY TO HAVE THEM DISASSEMBLE AND INSPECT THE PARKING BRAKE COMPONENTS. GM CUSTOMER SERVICE REFUSED TO PROVIDE A CLEAR ANSWER TO MY INQUIRIES AND KEEPS REFERING ME BACK TO THE DEALER. GM CUSTOMER SERVICE REFUSES TO COMMUNICATE WITH ME FURTHER ON THIS ISSUE. GM CUSTOMER SERVICE REFUSES TO PUT THEIR PRIOR RESPONSES AND REFUSALS IN WRITING, ON LETTERHEAD. IN SHORT, GM KNOWS THIS IS A DANGEROUS DESIGN DEFECT THAT WILL COST THEM A LOT OF MONEY TO CORRECT.

VERY LITTLE CHANCE THAT I OWN TWO OF THE SAME VEHICLES FIVE YEARS APART AND SAME DEFECT HAPPENS TO BOTH. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED BEFORE ACCIDENTS OCCUR BECAUSE THE VEHICLE BEHIND DIDN'T SEE VEHICLE IN FRONT STOP. I AM NOT ONLY CONCERNED ABOUT MY FAMILY BEING SAFE BUT FOR THE SAFETY OF OTHERS! WHY WOULD THE DEALER SERVICE SHOP TELL ME THAT THE PART WILL HAVE TO BE ORDERED AND THERE IS A NATIONAL BACK ORDER ON THAT PART BUT TO CONTINUE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE? I HAVE CONTACTED GM.

WITHOUT ANY WARNING THE ABS ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE WENT OUT ON MY 2001, S-10 BLAZER. THE MALFUNCTION CAUSED WHAT IS KNOWN AS "PUMP RUN ON". THIS MEANS THAT THE ABS PUMP RUNS CONSTANTLY AND HAS TO BE REPLACED. REMOVING 2 FUSES DISABLES THE PUMP BUT DOES NOT TURN OFF THE ABS WARNING LIGHT ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE CAN BE DRIVEN BUT ONLY HAS POWER BRAKES AND WILL NOT PASS A SAFETY INSPECTION. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE ON GM VEHICLES. ESPECIALLY TRUCKS AND SUV'S. THE DEALERSHIPS WANT @ $700 TO REPAIR THIS ISSUE. THE PART CAN BE REMOVED AND SENT OFF TO SEVERAL PLACES THAT WILL REBUILD THE PRODUCT FOR @ $150. SHOULDN'T GM DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE FAULTY COMPONENTS THAT THEY USE ON THEIR VEHICLES. IE: GET THE PART FROM ANOTHER MANUFACTURER OR MAKE THE MANUFACTURER RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR PRODUCT. IT SEEMS THAT GM AND THE MANUFACTURER MAKE OUT LIKE BANDITS ON THIS DEAL. MY VEHICLE ONLY HAS 70,000 MILES ON IT AND IS WELL TAKEN CARE OF. THIS PART SHOULD NOT HAVE FAILED IN SUCH A SHORT BIT OF TIME.

BRAKE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WHILE STOPPING, MY WIFE WAS ALMOST HIT BY A BUS. THE DEALER HAS BEEN TRYING TO IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM, AN HAS THUS FAR REPLACED THE MASTER CYLINDER. THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS INTERMITTENTLY, AND CAUSING THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE PUMP TO CYCLE (LOCKING THE BRAKES) ALLEVIATES THE LOW OR FADING PEDAL FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. THIS PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE RELATED TO THE ABS PUMP AND/OR THE COMPUTER CONTROLLING IT. I AM VERY EXPERIENCED IN DIAGNOSTICS AND REBUILDING AUTOMOBILES, AND HAVE SEEN THIS OCCUR ON OTHER MAKES AND MODELS (USUALLY A FAILURE OF THE ABS PUMP). MY CAR WILL BE BACK AT THE DEALER AGAIN ON TUESDAY APRIL 14TH FOR THIS ON GOING FAILURE OF THIS POORLY DESIGNED ABS. MAYBE MY GOVERNMENT WILL DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS WHEN THE BRAKES ON THIS VEHICLE KILL SOME INNOCENT CITIZEN OR GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEE DRIVING ONE OF THESE CARS. *JB

THE GAS PEDAL HANGS UP ON THE FLOOR CARPET (THE WEAR STRIP INTEGRATED INTO THE CARPET THAT IS UNDER THE GAS PEDAL AND WRAPS UP ALONG THE SIDE OF THE TRANSMISSION TUNNEL) WHEN THE GAS PEDAL IS PRESSED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. THE SHAFT THAT THE GAS PEDAL IS ATTACHED TO HAS PART OF IT STICKING OUT PAST THE GAS PEDAL AND HAS A SHARP EDGE THAT SNAGS THE EDGE OF THE WEAR STRIP. THE CARPET IS NOT WORN, IT IS IN GREAT SHAPE, AND IS ONLY GETTING DAMAGED WHEN THE GAS PEDAL SNAGS THE CARPET WEAR STRIP. IT HAS HAPPENED ABOUT A DOZEN TIMES IN THE PAST 5 YEARS. I CONTACTED CHEVROLET DEALER AND THEY NEVER GOT BACK TO ME FIVE YEARS AGO. IN APRIL 2010, IT HAPPENED ON A CITY STREET WHEN I HIT THE GAS TO TAKE EVASIVE ACTION TO GET AWAY FROM ANOTHER CAR THAT ALMOST HIT ME IN THE SIDE AND THE GAS PEDAL STUCK AND I ALMOST HIT ANOTHER CAR AND A BUILDING. I CONTACTED THE CHEVROLET DEALER IN SALLISAW OKLAHOMA, AND THEY REFERRED ME TO THE CHEVROLET HOT-LINE FOR COMPLAINTS.

I WAS IN A DRIVE THROUGH WHICH LOOPED AROUND THE BUILDING. I APPLIED THE BRAKE TO STOP AT THE WINDOW AND COULD FEEL THE ABS ENGAGE AND THE VEHICLE DID NOT WANT TO STOP. IT SCARED ME AND OF COURSE I REAPPLIED THE BRAKE QUICKLY, TO AVOID HITTING THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME, AND I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO STOP. THIS HAPPENED AGAIN A FEW WEEKS LATER AT A LARGE INTERSECTION AT A RED LIGHT. I WAS 7 MONTHS PREGNANT AT THE TIME AND WAS PRETTY SCARED. I HAVE HEARD SEVERAL OF THESE COMPLAINTS AND I KNOW THAT THE BRAKES ON EVERY YEAR BEFORE THIS WERE RECALLED. I ALSO HAD TROUBLE WITH THE BRAKE LIGHTS AND FOUR-WAYS, WHICH STOPPED WORKING. I WAS DRIVING AND THE FOUR WAYS CAME ON. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND ENDED UP HOLDING THE BUTTON DOWN WHILE I DROVE IN ORDER FOR THEM TO STOP FLASHING. SHORTLY AFTER THE TURN SIGNALS STOPPED WORKING. FINALLY, THE SPEEDOMETER TEMPORARILY STOPPED WORKING, THEN SHORTLY AFTER THAT, THE HEAT STOPPED WORKING, THE VEHICLE ONLY BLOWING COLD AIR. WE REPLACED THE THERMOSTAT BUT THE HEAT STILL WOULD NOT FUNCTION. I ENDED UP GETTING RID OF THE VEHICLE BECAUSE OF THE NUMEROUS MALFUNCTIONS. *JB

SINCE I BOUGHT MY 2001 CHEVY BLAZER, I'VE HAD TO REPLACE BALL JOINTS EVERYTIME I HAVE A FRONT END ALIGNMENT. THIS YEAR I'VE REPLACED 3 WHEEL BEARINGS, FUEL PUMP, AND I JUST LOST MY TRANSMISSION. I'VE HAD THE LIGHT RECALL FIXED. MY SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON, BUT YOU CANNOT PUT A COMPUTER TO IT BECAUSE IT DOESN'T WORK. MY ABS LIGHT COMES AND GOES. WHATS NEXT? *NM

MY WIFE AND I BOUGHT OUR '01 CHEVY BLAZER USED IN 04/05. FROM THE START WE HAD A HARD TIME GETTING IT TO ENGAGE/DISENGAGE 4WD. THIS LAST WINTER MY WIFE, THE PRIMARY DRIVER, COMPLAINED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD NO POWER WHILE COMING HOME ONE NIGHT AND THE WEEKNIGHTS FOLLOWING FOR A WEEK. I CHECKED IN THE MORNINGS IT WAS FINE. PRETTY SOON WE BOTH STARTED NOTICING THE GAS GAUGE BOUNCING AROUND LIKE IT WAS DANCING. MY WIFE THINKING SHE WAS RUNNING OUT OF GAS WOULD PULL INTO THE FIRST GAS STATION. SHE WOULD FILL UP AND LEAVE THE STATION ONLY TO HAVE IT HAPPEN AGAIN AFTER PULLING AWAY FROM THE PUMP. ONE MONTH LATER, HER AND OUR 3 SMALL CHILDREN GOT STRANDED WHEN THEY WENT IN TO CONVENIENCE STORE. A MINUTE LATER THE BLAZER HAD DIED AND THE KEY IN THE ON POSITION. REPLACED THE FUEL FILTER AND THEN THE FUEL PUMP ($350 JUST FOR THE PUMP!!!) THE HEATING ELEMENT IN THE PUMP HAD FRIED IT. 04/06 THE ABS FAILED AND SHE ALMOST HIT A PEDESTRIAN. 2 WEEKS LATER WE START HEARING THIS POPPING NOISE WHEN SLOWING/STOPPING AND ACCELERATING. 05/06 THE BATTERY DIED ON HER WITH NO WARNING. TRIED JUMPING IT AND IT WOULDN'T HOLD A CHARGE. GOT THAT REPLACED. THEN IN 08/06 WE DIDN'T DRIVE IT BECAUSE THE PLATES HAD EXPIRED AND WE COULDN'T AFFORD TO REPLACE THEM YET. FINALLY I DROVE IT ON 08/13/06 FOR 1 MLE TO THE STORE AND ON MY WAY BACK WHILE STOPPING AT THE STOP SIGN 2 BLKS FROM MY HOUSE, I HEARD THIS LOUD CLUNK NOISE AND THEN THE VEHICLE STARTED WHINNING. NOW THE THING WON'T MOVE. IT STARTS AND WHINES, BUT WON'T MOVE. TRANSMISSION IS SHOT AND IS GOING TO COST $1600 TO REPLACE WITH ME DOING THE WORK. AND SO NOW, LIKE 90% OF THE COUNTRY, I AM MAKING A VERY HIGH CAR PAYMENT EXCEPT MINE IS ON A CAR THAT I CAN NOT DRIVE. THIS AND OTHER WEB SITES ABOUT VEHICLE RECALLS PROVE THAT THERE ARE SOME SERIOUS ISSUES WITH THESE VEHICLES AND NOTHING IS BEING DONE ABOUT IT. WHAT NEEDS TO HAPPEN IS FOR SOME ONE TO DIE B/C OF THESE DEFECTS AND THEN U WILL BE SCRAMBLING TO CORRECT THE PROBLEMS. THIS IS RIDICULOUS.*NM

I WAS TOLD BY RICK, SERVICE MANAGER, TONI HALL AT FLOW CHEVROLET A YEAR AGO THAT THIS 4X2 AND 4X4 WHEEL DRIVE WAS CORRECTED WHILE UNDER WARRANTY. THEY REFUSED TO FIX THE MAJOR PROBLEM AND CHANGED OUT A SWITCH. DURING THIS WHOLE YEAR I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO DRIVE COMFORTABLLY. NOW THEY HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE WHOLE FRONT END. A BRAND NEW CAR NOW WITH ONLY 39,000 MILES. THE NOISE IS TERRIFYING AND I'VE BEEN INSULTED BY GM WITH A LOYALTY INCENTIVE FOR $700 TO TAKE OFF ON A NEW VEHICLE. NO ONE CAN ASURE ME THAT I WILL BE SAFE, EVEN AFTER THEY TOLD ME IT WAS FIXED A YEAR AGO. I'M SCARED TO DRIVE IT. I WILL LEAVE IT AT THEIR PLACE UNTIL THEY CAN GET ME A SAFE CAR TO DRIVE.*AK

ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS AND DOOR PROBLEMS - I BOUGHT MY BLAZER WHEN IT WAS 2 YEARS OLD WITH 8300 MILES ON IT. WITH ABOUT 13000 MILES ON IT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT STAY RUNNING AND THE BATTERY GAUGE WAS UNDER 9. I GOT THE VEHICLE STARTED AND DROVE TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY REPLACED THE ALTERNATOR. THEY WOULD NOT COVER A LOANER OR RENTAL SINCE I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP. IF I WOULD HAVE HAD IT TOWED THEY WOULD HAVE COVERED A RENTAL. 2 WEEKS LATER SAME PROBLEM REPEATED. BROUGHT IT BACK TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY FOUND THE GROUND WIRE OFF THE ALTERNATOR WAS NOT PROPERLY TIGHTENED TO THE ENGINE BLOCK. AGAIN THEY WOULD NOT COVER A RENTAL CAR SINCE THE CAR WAS DRIVEABLE. THAT FIXED THE PROBLEM. WITH ABOUT 17000 MILES ON IT AND 2 1/2 YEARS OLD NOTICED RATTLING NOISE COMING FROM DRIVERS SIDE FRONT. NOTICED THAT THE DRIVERS SIDE FRONT DOOR WAS SAGGING. BROUGHT VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP AND AGAIN THEY WOULD NOT PAY FOR A RENTAL OR LOANER. PROBLEM DIAGNOSED AS DOOR NEEDING NEW BUSHING AND CENTER PINS FOR THE HINGES. THEY HAD TO ORDER THE PARTS AND I HAD TO BRING VEHICLE BACK. AGAIN THEY WOULD NOT PAY FOR A RENTAL OR GIVE ME A LOANER. I HAD A 1/2 HOUR DISCUSSION WITH SERVICE DIRECTOR FOR THE DEALERSHIP AND FINALLY GAVE ME A LOANER. I CALLED CHEVY ABOUT THE PROBLEM WITH THE DOORS AND THEY DON'T FIND THAT OUT OF THE ORDINARY FOR THE VEHICLE TO NEED NEW PINS AND BUSHINGS WITH ONLY 17500 MILES ON IT. THE 3/36000 WARRANTY IS UP IN TWO MONTHS AND I WILL BE GETTING RID OF THE VEHICLE BEFORE THE WARRANTY IS UP BEFORE SOMETHING ELSE BREAKS ON IT. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER GM VEHICLE!!*AK
