Chevy Blazer


Consumer Complaints & Reviews

On 1/25/12 I was in a collision with two other vehicles. I rear ended a car and pushed that car into another one. My front end was totaled and to my dismay my air bags never deployed. I own a 2004 Chevy Blazer and have been a faithful GM owner for many years before this. This occasion and occurrence, however, has made me second guess their safety.

I own a Chevy Blazer 2000. On Christmas eve 2010 without warning at 10:pm on the way home, my Blazer stopped! No warning lights, no heat indicator, nothing! It just quit. I paid $140.00 in cash to tow me home as it was the only tow truck on Christmas eve to tow me, cash in advance, dropped me off in my driveway and gone! No receipt nothing on side of truck or card. Blazer still apart new gaskets heads still off. Mechanic kicked out nonpayment of rent. Car on side of building unfinished, M.F,G.M, pack of gangsters. Won't repair or reimbursed for repair car. Over 3 millions GM drivers screwed, I hope they go belly up! I made last payment this Oct, 30 - 2011. I was told there own lawyers brought class action suite against G.M, can they do that ? Is that legal? The FIX was in?

My 2007 Chev TrailBlazer's fuel level sensor stopped working 200 miles out of warranty. The car stalled in center lane of a six-lane highway due to fuel gauge misrepresenting fuel level. The gauge jumps all over, the empty chime comes on all the time, and the engine light comes on and off. Chevy is now admitting the problem, but they will only pay for half of the repair.

I have a 2005 Chevy TrailBlazer. I'm having problems with low beam headlights shutting off. I tried driving with high beams to get home. But I was pulled over by local police for failure to dim headlights. I received a warning.

This is similar to "Eric of Pennsauken, NJ (June 2011)" complaint. The fuel gauge on my 2006 Chevy Trailblazer stopped functioning two years ago. On September 2, 2011, we received a letter from GM describing our fuel gauge issue exactly and acknowledging that numerous vehicles have been having a similar problem.

But, instead of offering to warranty the defective parts and fix the issue at no cost to the consumer, GM is only offering to pay for 50% of the cost under their warranty repair schedule if you have it repaired at a GM dealership. Estimates that we received previously to repair this issue were over $800. Fifty percent of that estimate is still a lot of money for a repair that is clearly necessary as a result of defective product sold by GM.

GM needs to do a better job standing behind their products when they are defective.

I have a 1995 Chevy S-10 Blazer 2 wheel drive. Ball joint on left side of vehicle broke while traveling at 45 mph. I skidded off the road to the shoulder. The repair shop said that both ball joints were shot and just a matter of time before the other side went. They also indicated that the S-10 series Blazers, GMC's, and the like all seem to have ball joint problems early on in their miles. Even some with ball joint problems at 9,000 mi. What's up with that. I haven't seem any recall notices for this problem?

What conerns me the most, I was driving over 65 mph several minutes earlier in heavy traffic and what the outcome might have been if the ball joint broke on the freeway.

My Chevrolet Blazer had a "special policy" recall about soldering being faulty on the windshield wiper motor. A couple of months before I received this letter from Chevrolet, I was in an accident because my wipers stopped working during a rainstorm while I was taking my daughter to school one morning. I had to pay out-of-pocket to have my vehicle repaired because I carry only liability insurance.
I believe I am entitled to a refund from Chevrolet for the amount of repair because of the problem with the manufactoring of their vehicle that caused the accident. I have all paperwork, police reports, etc that will be needed.
My 7-year-old daughter was terrorized & scared to death, no serious injury. I also had a 2-year-old in the vehicle with me. I have had serious neck & back pain since this accident...I have been under a doctor's care for my back & neck.

Vanessa should sue GM in Small Claims Court for actual damages to the vehicle and any medical bills she incurred. It's the most economical way to recover her damages.
