2000 CHEVROLET BLAZER Complaints

HEADLIGHTS FLICKER - FASTER THAN YOU CAN BLINK AN EYE--WILL THE LIGHTS STAY OFF SOMETIME? A DISASTER AT NIGHT.*AK

THE ADJUSTABLE PEDESTAL ON THE SEAT BASE OCCASIONALLY COLLAPSES WHEN IT IS SUBJECTED TO HIGH TEMPERATURES. *MR INCLUDING THE INTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE IN THE SUMMERTIME. THE PLASTIC WOULD BECOME VERY PLIABLE ALSO WHEN PRESSING THE BASE INTO THE SEAT DURING INSTALLATION, THE ADJUSTMENT NOTCHES SLIPPED. *SCC

SEAT ADJUSTMENT HANDLE BROKE OFF DRIVER'S SEAT. THIS IS A VERY EXPENSIVE REPAIR, AND HAVE FOUND OUT THAT THERE A ALOT OF THESE BREAKING. I THINK CHEVROLET SHOULD MAKE THIS INTO A RECALL SO THEIR CUSTOMERS DO NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR THEIR MISTAKES. NONE IS PERFECT, BUT AT LEAST THEY COULD MAKE THE EFFORT TO FIX THEM, AND NOT MAKE THE CUSTOMER DO SO.*AK

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WAS LEAKING OIL. DEALER DETERMINED THAT THE LEAK WAS UNUSUAL, AND HAD TO TAKE TRANSMISSION APART TO FIND THE CAUSE OF THE LEAK. *AK

THE PASSENGER SIDE SEAT WILL NOT LOCK INTO PLACE, CAUSING THE SEAT TO SLIDE FORWARD WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN OPERATION. THE PASSENGER SEAT LEVER ALSO BROKE OFF WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ADJUST THE RECLINE POSITION OF THE SEAT BACK. DEALER IS REPAIRING BOTH PROBLEMS WITH A COST OF OVER $600.00. *LA

WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONSUMER MANAGED TO PULL OVER. HAD TAKEN VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP, BUT PROBLEM HAD NOT BEEN RESOLVED. *AK LAST SPRING THE VEHICLE'S IGNITION WOULD CUT OUT WHILE IN MOTION AND WOULD SOMETIME DROP OUT OF THE CRUISE CONTROL. THE VEHICLE STALLED IN REVERSE, THE ENGINE WIRING WAS REPLACED, THE CRUISE CONTROL WOULD SHUT OFF AT TIMES, THE IGNITION SWTCH SHORTED OUT. ANOTHER ADDRESS FOR THE CONSUMER IS: 2829, RUE SANS FAMILLE, ZIP-27607. *SCC

THE FUEL PUMP,LINE AND TANK ARE FAULTY AT 35000 MILES. I BOUGHT IT AS A USED CAR FROM SANTA ANA HYUNDAI WHO AGREED TO FIX THE FUEL PUMP BUT DID NOT. THE TRANSMISSION IS NOT CHANGING GEARS PROPERLY, IT WOULD NOT START WHEN I TURNED IT OFF TO GET GAS ON 9-26-03, THE LEFT FRONT END IS POPPING WITH A LOUD NOISE,THE BRAKES ARE NOT ANTILOCK BRAKES,IT FEELS AS IF I AM HITTING METAL WHEN I STOP HARD,THE PANEL LIGHTS WOULD FLICKER, LIGHTS ON DASH BOARD WHEN FLASH WHEN I HAD SEATBELT ON. I HAD A CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP FIX THE MINOR THINGS. THE BATTERY CABLE WAS LOOSE AND THEY OILED THE JOINTS TO STOP THE SQUEAK. THE DEALER REFUSED TO FIX THE FUEL PUMP WHICH IS UNSAFE AND DEMAND I PAY HIM MONEY THAT IS ALREADY ABOVE THE PRICE OF THIS CAR. I AM PAYING $14,000 PLUS FOR A 2000 CHEVROLET BLAZER WITH A FAULTY FUEL PUMP.THE DOOR ENTRY WILL NOT PROPERLY TAKE IN THE KEY TO OPEN THE DOOR.THE GAUGE METERS WERE DANCING BACK AND FORTH AND NOT PROPERLY READING THE FUEL.IT WAS A RENTAL CAR BEFORE I BOUGHT IT SO I HAD NO REAL HISTORY OF RECALLS OR MECHANICAL REPORTS. *LA

WHEEL BEARINGS WEAR OUT PREMATURELY. PARTS HAVE BEEN REPLACED THREE TIMES WITHIN ONE YEAR. *AK

WHILE DRIVING, THE TRANSMISSION FAILED WITHOUT WARNING. THE DEALER WAS NOTIFIED. *AK THE CONSUMER WAS STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN ON A SIDE ROAD, WAITED FOR TRAFFIC TO CLEAR AND AS HE MADE THE LEFT TURN ONTO THE HIGHWAY, A POP SOUND WAS HEARD AND THE LOST POWER. THE VEHICLE MOVED FORWARD IN A JERKING MOTION. THEN THE CONSUMER CONTINUED TO DRIVE IN LOW GEAR SLOWLY AND COULD NOT GET OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY IN REVERSE. *SCC *JB

SEAT HANDLES ARE BROKEN AGAIN. RESULTING A RECLINING DRIVER SEAT. SEAT HANDLES BROKE UNDER WARRANTY AND WAS REPLACED, SO THIS IS THE SECOND TIME ON MY BLAZER, 2000 MODEL. GM NEEDS TO REDESIGN THESE HANDLES BECAUSE SOMEONE COULD GET INTO A ACCIDENT. *JB
