2000 CHEVROLET BLAZER Complaints

ON FIVE SEPARATE OCCASIONS THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED. THE DRIVER WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. *JB THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN WITHOUT ANY WARNING AT ANY SPEED AND WHILE IDLING IN PARK, THE ENGINE RESTARTED. THE PROBLEM COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE GAS FILTER, IGNITION WIRING, AND THE FUEL PUMP WAS REPLACED BUT THE VEHICLE WAS STILL EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. *SC *JB

FUEL GAUGE FAILS TO FUNCTION PROPERLY. TRUCK HAS NO GAS, YET GAUGE SHOWS OVER A QUARTER TANK. SOMETIMES GAUGE FLUCTUATES FROM FULL TO EMPTY RANDOMLY WITHOUT REASON AFTER BELOW HALF A TANK. HAVE RUN OUT OF GAS SEVERAL TIMES ON HIGHWAY. THIS SEEMS TO BE A SERIOUS ISSUE AND COSTLY REPAIR. I KNOW PLENTY OF OTHERS WITH SAME PROBLEM AS WELL AS SEEING NUMEROUS POSTINGS. *LA

FUEL GAUGE DOES NOT READ ACCURATELY. WHEN I FILL THE TANK THE GAUGE GOES TO FULL. IT SEEM TO READ ACCURATELY UNTIL GETTING TO HALF TANK. AT THAT TIME IT REMAINS RIGHT AT HALF FULL NO MATTER HOW MUCH FURTHER I DRIVE. I HAVE NOTICED SEVERAL OTHER IDENTICAL COMPLAINTS WITH THE SAME VEHICLE. RUNNING OUT OF GAS IS A VERY UNSAFE POSSIBILITY! THE REPAIR FOR THE SENDING UNIT WAS QUOTED TO ME $750 WHICH IS OUTRAGEOUS FOR SOMETHING THAT IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND SHOULD BE RECALLED. *LA

WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH CONSUMER SMELLED SMOKE COMING FROM THE VENTS. CONSUMER PULLED OVER, AND TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF. CONSUMER LIFTED UP THE HOOD, AND THE HOOD RELEASE LEVER DID NOT OPEN. CONSUMER CALLED FOR ROAD SIDE ASSISTANCE. CONSUMER HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION. *AK
