2000 CHEVROLET BLAZER Complaints

MY BLINKERS STARTED BLINKING REAL FAST AND I COULDN'T FIGURE OUT WHY. I ASKED MY BROTHER AND HE TOLD ME I HAD A LIGHT OUT SOMEWHERE, SO HE HELPED ME LOCATE IT. IT WAS MY BLINKER ON THE DRIVER SIDE BACK. I REPLACED IT AND A FEW MONTHS LATER IT HAPPENED AGAIN. I REPLACED IT AGAIN. ALL THIS HAPPENED IN 2013. IN THE SUMMER OF 2014 IT HAPPENED AGAIN WITH THE SAME LIGHT. I REPLACED IT AGAIN. I WAS WATCHING GOOD MORNING AMERICA THIS MORNING AND SEEN WHERE THEY WERE INVESTIGATING SAFE CARS AT USED CAR DEALERS. IT GAVE A WEB SITE TO LOOK AND SEE IF YOUR VEHICLE HAS ANY RECALLS. I LOOKED AND IT SHOWED MINE HAD 4. I CALLED THE NUMBER IT GAVE AND THE LADY TOLD ME MINE HAD NONE WITH THE VIN # I GAVE HER. WHY THEN AM I HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THIS ONE LIGHT? *TR

I WAS DRIVING YESTERDAY WHEN I SMELLED SOMETHING BURNING. I LOOKED AND NOTICED MY REAR WINDOW WAS GLOWING ORANGE AND THEN THE REAR WINDOW EXPLODED! *TR

EVER SINCE I OWN THIS VEHICLE, THE IGNITION SWITCH DOES NOT LOCK. THEREFORE IT IS POSSIBLE TO LEAVE THE TRUCK AND NOT KNOW THE IGNITION SWITCH IS STILL IN THE ON POSITION. ALSO, THE GAS GAUGE BOUNCES ALL OVER THE PLACE AND I HAVE TO USE THE TRIP TO KNOW WHEN I NEED GAS. THIS HAS ALSO BEEN A PROBLEM SINCE I OWN THE TRUCK. OCCASIONALLY, THE LOW FUEL LIGHT COMES ON (I KNOW I HAVE FUEL) AND THE TRUCK STARTS ACTING LIKE IT'S LOW ON GAS. *TR

HAD A FRONT END COLLISION. THE FRONT END WAS DESTROYED. NO AIR BAGS WENT OFF. BOTH VEHICLES CAME OFF A RED LIGHT, ALL VEHICLES STOPPED SUDDENLY AND MY TEUCK REAR ENDED A TOYOTA PICKUP. *TR

GAS GAGE BOUNCES AROUND AND FUEL LIGHT COMES ON EVEN WHEN I KNOW THE CAR HAS A FULL TANK. I HAVE TO TRACK MILEAGE EVERY TIME I PUT GAS IN THE CAR. I ALSO HAVE A PROBLEM WITH FUEL PUMP NOT GETTING POWER AND R I HAVE REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP 3 TIMES AND IT WILL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM DAYS TO WKS AFTER REPLACING THE FUEL PUMP. I HAVE SEARCHED ON GOOGLE AND THEIR ARE MANY PEOPLE HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO 3 DIFFERENT SHOPS AND NO ONE CAN FIGURE IT OUT I AM VERY FRUSTRATED. THEIR IS CODE THAT SHOWS UP WHEN TESTED. THE CAR HAS BROKE DOWN MANY TIMES WITH MY DAUGHTER IN IT. I NEVER KNOW IF I TURN THE CAR OFF IF IT WILL START BACK UP. AT TIMES IN THE MORNING IT WONT START AT ALL AND MY DAUGHTER IS LATE TO SCHOOL DUE TO THE CAR NOT STARTING AND HAVING TO FIND HER A RIDE. FOR THE PAST 4 DAYS THE CAR WILL NOT START AT ALL. THEIR IS NO POWER GETTING TO THE FUEL PUMP. I AM SO FRUSTRATED!! *JS

I'VE OWNED THIS VEHICLE FOR ONE YEAR. I AM HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE BRAKE LIGHT CONSTANTLY COMING ON, EVEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD IT COMES ON. HAD THE BRAKES REPLACED AND FLUID IS GOOD BUT IT CONSTANTLY COMES ON. AT THE SAME TIME I HAD MY MECHANIC LOOK BECAUSE ON OCCASION WHEN IT'S PUT INTO PARK, IT SHUTS ITSELF OFF. *TR

EVENFLO EXPRESS VISION/ CHASE TRADITIONS FORWARD FACING BOOSTER WITH 5-PT HARNESS. THE PROBLEM OCCURS EVERY TIME MY CHILD HAS BEEN STRAPPED INTO THE SEAT,. THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE RIGHT SHOULDER STRAP IS OVERLAPPED ON ITSELF TO SECURE IT AT A PERMANENT LENGTH (MAKING TWO STRAPS ON THE R SHOULDER) AND ALLOW FOR THE PLACEMENT OF THE HARNESS ADJUSTED., THE ONE STRAP THAT IS NOT SECURED BY THE CHEST CLIP EASILY SLIDES ON AND OFF OF THE CHILDREN'S SHOULDER.. I HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING TO GET THIS TO WORK BUT WHEN SHE MOVES JUST A LITTLE BIT IT FALLS RIGHT OFF OF HER SHOULDER. I HAVE TIGHTENED IT AS TIGHT AS I CAN AND IT STILL SEEMS TO FALL RIGHT OFF. I HAVE ALSO HAD IT INSTALLED WHEN I BOUGHT IT AND THEY HAD A HARD TIME EVEN GETTING IT ON AND STAYING IN PLACE. THEY THOUGHT IT WAS WEIRD. I DO WORRY THIS IS NOT SAFE FOR ANYCHILD, PLEASE FIX THIS ISSUE WITH A NEW HARNESS PLEASE. TIGHTEN IT FROM THE FRONT BOTTOM WOULD BE SO MUCH EASIER. I I BOUGHT THIS BOOSTER CHILD RESTRAINT ON SEPTEMBER 14,2013 FROM AN AGENCY HERE IN KLAMATH FALLS OREGON.THANK YOU.... THE MODEL NUMBER OF MY SEAT IS 32921122 AND THE MANUFACTURE DATE IS 06/03/2011.

FORTUNATELY, I HAD JUST GOTTEN OFF THE FREEWAY AND WAS LOOKING FOR AN ADDRESS AT A SLOW SPEED. ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR LURCHED; I HAD NO STEERING; I LOST ALL ELECTRICAL CONTROL; THE CAR GROUND TO A HALT; SMOKE CAME OUT FROM UNDER THE HOOD. I AND A FRIEND GOT OUT OF THE CAR. FORTUITOUSLY, FIRE TRUCKS APPEARED. IT TURNED OUT THEY WERE RETURNING FROM ANOTHER INCIDENT AS I COULD NOT BELIEVE THE IMMEDIACY OF THEIR RESPONSE. THEY TOOK OVER PREVENTING FURTHER AGGRAVATION OF THIS SITUATION. THE BATTERY WAS BOILING. ALL THE ELECTRICAL WIRE HARNESSES WERE MELTED. THE UPPER SUSPENSION CONTROL ARM WAS BROKEN. THE FIREMEN'S OBSERVATION WAS, IF I HAD BEEN GOING ANY FASTER, THE CAR COULD HAVE FLIPPED. AFTER BEING TOWED TO A NEARBY MECHANIC, I LEARNED THE UPPER CONTROL ARM HAD BROKEN. IT IMPAILED THE STARTER WHICH SHORTED. THAT MELTED THE WIRING HARNESSES TO AND FROM THE BATTERY, AS WELL AS BEING THE CAUSE OF THE BATTERY BOILING. THE KEY ISSUE IS THAT GENERAL MOTORS WOULD BUILD A VEHICLE WHERE THE UPPER CONTROL ARM IS SO FLIMSY IT WOULD BREAK. I HAVE READ OTHER INCIDENTS OF THE SAME THING WITH THE CHEVROLET BLAZER WHERE, FOR EXAMPLE, A PERSON WAS GOING 30MPH, THE CAR FLIPPED, AND THE PERSON WAS KNOCKED UNCONSCIOUS. A REPEATED CORPORATE FAILURE OF THIS NATURE SHOULD HAVE CONSEQUENCES. *TR

NOISE FROM ENGINE. DIAGNOSED AS BALL JOINTS NEED REPLACING OR WHEELS WILL FALL OFF. REPLACED UPPER AND LOWER BALL JOINTS AND IDLER ARM FOR ABOUT 1200.00. NOW(JUNE 19, 2012) AT 100,000 MILES, SAME NOISE COMING FROM ENGINE COMPARTMENT. LOOKS LIKE ANOTHER BALL JOINT REPLACEMENT. *JS

2000 CHEVROLET BLAZER 4X4, WAS PARKED FOR THREE WEEKS IN A DRIVEWAY OF A HOUSE DURING VACATION TRIP. UPON DRIVING THE VEHICLE UPON VACATION RETURN IT WAS FOUND THAT THE FIRESTONE FIREHAWK 500 235/70R15 RIGHT FRONT TIRE HAD BELT SEPARATION CAUSING MAJOR VIBRATION, STEERING DIFFICULTY AND REQUIRED TIRE REPLACEMENT. THREE OTHER FIRESTONE FIREHAWK 500 TIRES ON THE VEHICLE DO NOT INDICATE ANY DEFECT UPON VISUAL INSPECTION. FIRESTONE RECOMMENDS REPLACEMENT OF ALL TIRES DUE TO AGE, DOT 3303. TREAD REMAINING ON TIRES IS 3/32" OR MORE. *TR
