THERE ARE SEVERAL DIFFERENT ISSUES WITH THIS TRUCK: 1. THE WHEELS ARE MAKING A SQUEAKING NOISE WHILE DRIVING; REPLACED BRAKES, ROTORS, HAD TIRES ROTATED, BALANCED AND NEW ALIGNMENT DONE WITH NO HELP 2. BRAKES GO TO FLOOR WHILE BRAKING..THIS JUST STARTED 3. BACK WINDSHIELD WIPER MAKES A LOUD NOISE AND DOESN'T WORK...EVER! 4. SEAT CONTROL GETS STUCK AND WON'T MOVE 5. NO REVERSE LIGHT(S) AND CANNOT FIGURE OUT ISSUE 6. FINAL AND BIGGEST ISSUE IS THAT ALL THE LIGHTS (INCLUDING HEADLIGHTS) FLICKER BOTH WHILE DRIVING AND IDLING) I HAVE HAD THE ALTERNATOR TESTED AND REPLACED AS WELL AS THE BATTERY..STILL HAPPENING I BOUGHT THIS TRUCK DECEMBER 8, 2007 USED FROM A LOCAL DEALER. I PURCHASED A SMALL WARRANTY BUT ONE THAT WON'T COVER ANYTHING MENTIONED ABOVE. IF THERE ARE ANY RECALLS WILL SOMEONE PLEASE CONTACT ME! *TR

ON FRIDAY OCTOBER 20, 2006. MY SON AND 3 FRIENDS WERE LEAVING A FRIENDS HOUSE. WHEN MY SON APPLIED HIS BRAKE TO SLOW, THE BRAKES FAILED. WHEN THEY FAILED THE ENGINE REVVED COMPLETELY UP, THROTTLED OUT AND SHUT DOWN THE VEHICLE. HE OF COURSE HAD NO BRAKES, BUT NOW NO STEERING, AND THE ENGINE WAS OFF. NOT HAVING ANY CONTROL, THE VEHICLE HIT A LOOSE ROCK, SLID INTO A DITCH WHICH THEN SENT THEM INTO A SERIES OF ROLLOVERS NO LESS THAN 5 NO MORE THEN 7. THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. WHEN THEY LANDED 3 OF THE 4 DOORS WERE JAMMED SHUT. AS THEY CLIMB OUT OF THE VEHICLE, THEY NOTICED IT WAS BURNING. IT BURNED FROM BEHIND THE DASH THROUGH THE ENGINE. I HAVE PICTURES IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE. THE WORST INJURY AT THE TIME WAS MY SON'S SHOULDER, THEY WERE CONCERNED IT HAD A WORSE TEAR. NOTHING CAN BE DONE TO FIX THIS VEHICLE. I HAVE NOTIFIED CHEVY AND GM. I AM ALSO TALKING TO AN ATTORNEY NEXT WEEK. THE SERVICE BRAKE HYDRAULIC ANTILOCK RECALL HAS CAUSED ME CONCERN. WE DON'T KNOW IF IT WAS EVER TAKEN FOR IT'S REPAIR. NOW GM CAN'T EVEN FIND OR TRACE YET THE VIN NUMBER. HE HAD ONLY HAD IT 2 WEEKS WHEN WE HAD TO PUT IT IN THE SHOP BECAUSE IT HAD TO BE JUMPED TO START. THEN A WEEK AND A HALF ALMOST 2 WEEKS LATER THE BRAKES GO OUT. SOMETHING MAJOR WENT WRONG, AND HE HADN'T EVEN HAD IT 30 DAYS YET. IT COULD HAVE KILLED 4 KIDS. I WANT TO KNOW WHAT MALFUNCTIONED. *NM

PURCHASED VEHICLE 12/03 SINCE THEN HAVE REPLACED: WATER PUMP 3 TIMES, RADIATOR, THERMOSTAT, LEFT UPPER BALL JOINT, UPPER MANIFOLD GASKET, MAIN REAL SEAL. OVER THE PAST 6-8 MONTHS I HAVE NOTICED THE BRAKING ISSUE SEVERAL TIMES (MORE THAN 10.) LUCKILY NONE WERE EMERGENCY STOPS, HOWEVER WHEN BRAKING DUE TO TRAFFIC LIGHT CHANGE OR STOPPING WHILE GOING DOWNHILL, THE BRAKES "CHATTER," AN AUDIBLE WHINE IS PRODUCED, AND IT IS NECESSARY TO PUMP THE BRAKES BEFORE IT WILL REGAIN PRESSURE AND STOP. *JB

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE'S BRAKE LINES WERE RUSTED. AN INDEPENDENT REPAIR SHOP DISCOVERED THE RUSTED BRAKE LINES AND SUGGESTED THE VEHICLE BE TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED SERVICE DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE SERVICE DEALER WHO DETERMINED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS LEAKING BRAKE FLUID. THE AUTO INSURER INSPECTED THE VEHICLE FOR POSSIBLE DAMAGE CAUSED BY THE TOWING COMPANY AND DETERMINED THAT THE LEAKAGE WAS DUE TO THE RUSTING. THE BRAKE LINES WERE REPLACED AND THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AFTER THE COMPLAINT WAS TAKEN.

DT: THE CONTACT OWNS A 1996 CHEVROLET BLAZER. THERE WERE PROBLEMS WITH THE ABS SYSTEM. A LOUD SQUEAKING NOISE CAME FROM THE BRAKES , AND WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS PRESSED THE NOISE BECAME LOUDER. THERE WAS EXTENDED STOPPING DISTANCE THAT WAS CAUSED BY THE ABS. ALSO, THE ABS LIGHT ILLUMINATED UNTIL THE BACK BRAKE PADS AND CYLINDERS WERE REPLACED. THIS REMEDIED THE ABS LIGHT FROM BEING ILLUMINATED, BUT THE CONSUMER WAS STILL HEARING THE LOUD SQUEAKING NOISE, AND WAS STILL HAVING EXTENDED STOPPING DISTANCES. WHILE THE BRAKES WERE BEING REPAIRED THE SECOND TIME THE BRAKE SPECIALIST REFERRED HIM TO GENERAL MOTORS FOR THE BRAKE PROBLEM. THERE IS RECALL 99I006000 SAFETY IMPROVEMENT CAMPAIGN FOR THIS YEAR, MAKE, AND MODEL OF VEHICLE, FOR THE SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC: ANTI LOCK BRAKES.

WHEN DRIVING OVER BUMPS THE ANTI LOCK BRAKES WOULD LOCK UP CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO HAVE EXTENDED STOPPING DISTANCE. *AK *SC *JB

I WAS JUST INVOLVED IN "REAR-ENDER" IN WHICH I COULD NOT GET MY BLAZER TO STOP. THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME SUDDENLY STOPPED TO TURN LEFT. THAT SEEMED OKAY BECAUSE I KNEW I HAD PLENTY OF TIME TO STOP. HOWEVER, AS I WAS APPLYING THE BRAKES, IT FELT LIKE THE ABS WAS RELEASING THE BRAKES CAUSING MY BLAZER TO ROLL RIGHT INTO THE REAR THE EXPLORER IN FRONT OF ME. THIS IS EXTREMEMLY FRUSTRATING BECAUSE I HAD MY VEHICLE IN FOR AN ABS RECALL EARLIER THIS YEAR.

BRAKE FAILURE. BRAKE WORK DONE SEVERAL TIMES INCLUDING RECALL OF ABS. WHICH IS NOT INCLUDED IN REPAIR COST. THE VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT ON JULY 9 2002. THE BRAKES FAILED WITHOUT WARNING AT SLOW SPEED ON SURFACE STREET RESULTING IN A THREE CAR COLLISION ONE VEHICLE WAS TOTALED. ACCIDENT COSTS NOT INCLUDED.

THE VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH ABS. ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO STOP THE VEHICLE THE WHEELS LOCKED AND THE VEHICLE WENT INTO A SKID. THE SKID (SLID) IS A SAFETY ISSUE SINCE IT CAUSES A REDUCTION IN STEERING CONTROL WHICH COULD RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT. *TT

THE CONSUMER STATES THAT HE SUFFERED LOSS OF BRAKING AFTER THE ABS WAS FIXED ON RECALL DUE TO THE DEALER USING DEFECTIVE PARTS. EVERY LIGHT ON THE VEHICLE WENT OUT WHILE THE CONSUMER WAS DRIVING, CONSUMER BELIEVES THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT IMPROPERLY INSTALLED THE WIRES WHILE PERFORMING THE RECALL. *YH

CONSUMER HAD AN ACCIDENT, THERE WERE TWO INJURIES. *AK CONSUMER STATES REAR AXLE SEAL IS LEAKY, WHEN STOPPING VEHICLE OR SLOWING, THE BRAKE PEDAL GIVES WAY, AIR BAG FAILED. *YD

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND APPLYING THE BRAKES THE VEHICLE STARTED SHAKING OUT OF CONTROL. NLM

THE ABS BRAKE SYSTEM HAD FAILED WITHOUT ANY WARNINIG OR INDECATION, I HAD MY MECHANIC CHECK THE SYSTEM OUT AND HE FOUN THA THE ABS PUMP WAS MALFUNCTIONING. BUT IT DID NOT PRODUCE A FAULT CODE TO THE COMPUTER NOR DID THE DASH LIGHT COME ON. HE ALSO CHECKED WITH OTHER MECKANIC IN THE AREA AND THEY ALSO HAVE HAD THE SAME REPORTS FROM THEIR CUSTOMERS ABOUT THE BRAKES FAILING. THE QUICK FIX IS TO DISABLE THE ABS SYSTEM AND RUN THE BRAKES IN THE MANUAL MODE. THERE SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH (96-97 ) SYSTEMS. THE REPAIR COST FOR ABS RANGE FROM 900.00 TO 1500.00 DOLLLARS TO FIX. AT THAT PRICE THERE PROBABLY A LOT OF PEOPLE RIDING AROUNRD WITH THE ABS SYSTEM DESABLED. I THINK THIS SHOULD HAVE A TOP PRIORITY TO BE CHECKED OUT. HAD I NEEDED THE BRAKES IN A REAL EMERGENCY OR PANIC STOP I DON'T THINK I WOULD BE WRITING THIS LETTER. THANK YOU FOR YOR TIME IN THIS MATTER JOHN T NUTTALL 24 B STREET LOWELL,MA. 01851. *AK

WHILE TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY VEHICLE ACCELERATED WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING, DEALERSHIP IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM.*AK. CONSUMER STATED WHEN SHE TOOK HER FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR TO SLOW THE VEHICLE DOWN, THE VEHICLE STAYED AT THE SAME SPEED, CONSUMER TRIED DOWNSHIFTING AND PUMPING THE BRAKES, SHE HAD TO SLAM ON THE BRAKES AND USE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO SLOW THE VEHICLE DOWN ENOUGH TO GET OFF OF THE FREEWAY, CONSUMER STATED THE DEALER REPLACED THE ACCELERATOR CABLE, BRAKES, SHOES, CALIPERS AND ROTORS.*JB

MANY PROBLEMS ARE CONTINUING. CURRENTLY, THE FRONT SUSPENSION NEEDS REPAIRED, THE BRAKES WERE REPLACED AT 18000 AND ARE NOW GONE AGAIN, THE REAR SEALS ARE LEAKING DAMAGING THE REAR BRAKES, THE DRIVE LIGHTS STILL FLASH INTERMITTENTLY, A SMELL OF GASOLINE IS IN THE VEHICLE AFTER REFUELING, THE ENGINE PINGS NO MATTER WHAT FUEL IS USED. NOTHING THE DEALER HAS DONE HAS SOLVED THE MULTITUDE OF PROBLEMS. SEAT BELT PROBLEMS ON PASSENGER SIDE, INTERIOR TRIM FELL OFF, ON AND ON.

IN APPROXIMATELY, JULY, 2000, (UNFORTUNATELY, I CANNOT REMEMBER THE EXACT DATE) THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON ON THE SAID VEHICLE. I CHECKED THE WEBSITES FOR BOTH CHEVROLET AND NHTSA TO SEE IF ANY RECALLS HAD BEEN CALLED. ON THE WEBSITE IT STATED THAT THERE HAD BEEN FOR 1991-1996. WHEN I CONTACTED CHEVROLET VIA TELEPHONE, THEY DENIED THAT THIS INFORMATION WAS ON THEIR WEBSITE AND STATED THAT IT WAS ONLY UP TO THE YEAR 1995. THEY STATED THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO HAVE A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF COMPLAINTS BEFORE A RECALL COULD BE MADE ON A CERTAIN VEHICLE YEAR. I STATED MY FRUSTRATION WITH THE REPRESENATIVE AND TOLD HER THAT I WOULD MAKE EVERY ATTEMPT TO RECEIVE WHAT I FELT I WAS DUE. AFTER SEVERAL CALLS AND HEADACHES, THEY FINALLY SENT A RECALL NOTICE. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO GIBSON CHEVROLET IN SOUTH HOLLAND, ILLINOIS WHO REPLACED A SWITCH AND SAID THEY WERE DONE. WHEN I BEGAN TO LEAVE, I NOTICED THAT THE ANTI-LOCK LIGHT WAS STILL ON. I WENT BACK INTO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND TOLD THEM THAT THE LIGHT WAS STILL ON AND THE GENTLEMAN STATED THAT WHAT THEY HAD REPAIRED WOULD NOT PREVENT THE LIGHT FROM BEING ON. AFTER SEVERAL CONVERSATIONAL CIRCLES, I QUESTIONED WHETHER OR NOT THE VEHICLES ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM WAS OPERATIONAL AND I WAS TOLD "NO" " WE COULD RUN A DIAGNOSTIC CHECK , BUT YOU WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR IT." NOW, IT WAS AROUND THE SAME TIME THAT I REPORTED THAT MY LIGHT HAD COME ON WHEN THE BRAKING SYSTEM FAILED. IN ADDITION TO THAT I HAD APPROXIMATELY 7 BRAKE PAD CHANGES IN A PERIOD OF 16 MONTHS AT A LOCAL REPAIR SHOP. MY CONCERN IS THAT IF THE LIGHT CAME ON AT THE TIME RECALLS WERE BEING MADE, WHY DOES THIS VEHICLE NOT QUALIFY FOR NOT ONLY THE SWITCH TO BE REPAIRED BUT FOR THE ENTIRE SYSTEM. AT THIS TIME, I AM EXTREMELY CONCERNED THAT SINCE THE ANTI-LOCKS ARE NON-FUNCTIONAL AND THE PADS CONTINUE TO WEAR, THAT I MAY BE IN DANGER. THEY SHOW MINIMAL CONCERN TO THE WELFARE OF THEIR CLIENTS. I FEEL ROBBED AS WELL AS CHEATED. PLEASE HELP ME.*AK

RECALL WORK (99I-006 & 99V-193) WAS DENIED TO CUSTOMER FOR SEVERAL MONTHS, DURING THE WAITING PERIOD THE BRAKES FAILED RESULTING IN REAR END COLLISION. *CJ

ABOUT 1/4 TO 1/2 OF ONE SIDE OF ONE OF THE FRONT ROTOR SURFACES WAS PARTIALLY CORRODED AWAY. IN MY OPINION THIS WOULD HAVE SERIOUSLY AFFECTED BRAKING IN AN EMERGRNCY STOP. PHOTOGRAPHS OF THE ROTOR AND THE ROTOR ITSELF ARE AVAILBLE FOR INSPECTION. *AK

THIS BLAZER HAS OFFERED NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS. WE HAVE REPLACED THE ALTERNATOR, BRAKE PADS THREE TIMES, THE BATTERY THREE TIMES, THE AIR CONDITIONER WENT OUT IN JULY, 1999, AND EVEN AFTER HAVING IT REPAIRED TWICE, IT STILL DOESN'T WORK. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR BECAUSE OF A "GURGLING" NOISE, BUT THEY COULDN'T FIND WHAT WAS CAUSING IT, (IT WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY AT THAT TIME). NOW GAS FUMES FLOOD INTO THE VEHICLE AT VARIOUS TIMES, AFTER FILLING UP, AND EVEN WHILE DRIVING. THEY CLAIM THAT A $1,000.00 VALVE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED, BUT I SURE WISH THEY HAD KNOWN THAT WHILE THE WARRANTY WAS STILL GOOD! THE WIPERS WORK SOMETIMES, THE BRAKES ALLOW ME TO SLIDE TO A STOP ANY TIME THERE IS MOISTURE, THE LEFT RADIO SPEAKERS ONLY WORK SOMETIMES, DOME LIGHT COVER FALLS OFF, HOOD WON'T OPEN WITHOUT FORCE, PWR. WINDOWS ONLY WORK WHEN THEY WANT TO, LOCKS STOPPED WORKING BEFORE WARRANTY EXPIRED, AND THEY "FIXED" THEM, BUT THEY STILL DIDN'T WORK. IS THERE ANY WAY THEY WILL TAKE THIS LOUSY EXCUSE FOR A VEHICLE BACK? I CAN'T AFFORD TO DRIVE MY CHILDREN AROUND IN SOMETHING THAT OFFERS THE POSSIBILITY OF EXPLOSION DUE TO GAS LEAKAGE, NOT TO MENTION THAT THE SMELL AND FUMES MAKE US ALL NAUTIOUS. I WONDER HOW MANY MORE PROBLEMS WE WILL HAVE WITH IT, THE TRANSMISSION NOW SEEMS TO BE SLIPPING. PLEASE HELP!!*AK

THREE ACCIDENTS HAVE OCCURRED IN WHICH BRAKING WAS A FACTOR. ONE CRASH INVOLVED A SLOW-SPEED, REAR-END COLLISION WHERE THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED, THE ANTI-LOCK SYSTEM WAS ACTIVATED BUT THE STOPPING DISTANCE WAS EXTENSIVE. THE SECOND CRASH INVOLVED WET, SLICK PAVEMENT AND WHEN BRAKES WERE APPLIED, THE ANTI-LOCKS ACTIVATED, INABILITY TO STEER AND A SPINOUT OCCURRED. IN THE THIRD ACCIDENT, PAVEMENT WAS WET, SLUSHY IN AREAS. AT AN APPROXIMATE SPEED OF 25 MPH, BRAKES WERE APPLIED AT A YIELD INTERSECTION. THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES ACTIVATED, THE ABILITY TO STEER THE VEHICLE WAS LOST AND STOPPING DISTANCE WAS EXCESSIVE, CAUSING A CRASH WITH A VEHICLE IN THE INTERSECTION. IN THE THIRD CRASH (3-05-99), THIS INABILITY TO STOP/STEER WAS REPORTED IN WRITING TO OUR INSURANCE CARRIER (USAA) AND ALSO TO THE GM BODYSHOP WHO REPAIRED THE VEHICLE. A VERBAL COMPLAINT WAS MADE TO NICK HOPSON AT AUDETTE CADILLAC ABOUT THE BRAKES AND A REQUEST TO "CHECK THE BRAKES" WAS MADE. THE RESPONSE WAS THAT IF THERE HAD BEEN ANY PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKES THE VEHICLE'S ONBOARD COMPUTER WOULD HAVE NOTIFIED THE DRIVER AND THERE WAS NOTHING TO INDICATE A PROBLEM WITH THEM. OVER THE COURSE OF THESE INCIDENTS, THE PERSONAL DISTRESS AND EXPENSE HAS BEEN EXCRUTIATING. WE HAVE NOT BEEN FORMALLY NOTIFIED OF THE RECALL AS YET AND ARE EXTREMELY CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THIS VEHICLE.

BRAKES ON THIS VEHICLE HAVE BEEN QUESTIONABLE SINCE I PURCHASED IT. I REPORTED THE PROBLEM TO THE DEALER TWO DAYS AFTER PURCHASE AND WAS TOLD THAT WAS JUST THE WAY THE BRAKES WERE. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL INSTANCES WHERE THE ABS HAVE EITHER LOCKED UP OR FAILED TO WORK AT ALL. THE ABS WILL ENGAGE ON DRY ROADS AT SLOW SPEEDS. BRAKES WILL FADE WHEN COMING TO A SLOW STOP. TRAVEL ON BRAKES PEDAL IS SUCH THAT WHEN THE VEHICLE IS AT A STOP, YOU CAN NOT FIT ANYTHING UNDER THE PEDAL, IT IS ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. I WAS ALSO TOLD, THIS IS JUST THE WAY THE TRUCK IS. BRAKES HAD TO BE REPLACED AT 17,000 MILES, AND WAS TOLD BY GM THAT THEY KNOW THERE IS A BRAKE PROBLEM, BUT IT IS A QUALITY ISSUE, NOT A SAFETY ISSUE AND WARRANTY WOULD ONLY COVER IT UP TO 15,000 MILES. IF I HAD BOUGHT A JIMMY, THE WARRANTY WOULD HAVE COVERED THE BRAKES UP TO 20,000. IS THIS BECAUSE I DIDN'T PAY ENOUGH FOR THE BLAZER? MY SAFETY IS NOT AS IMPORTANT AS THOSE PEOPLE THAT PAID MORE FOR THEIR VEHICLE? I DON'T TEND TO AGREE WITH THAT LINE OF THINKING. *AK

I CHOSE A CHEVY BLAZER BECAUSE I KNOW THAT CHEVY IS KNOWN FOR THE QUALITY OF THEIR TRUCKS. UNFORTUNATELY I COULDN'T BE ANY MORE DISAPPOINTED WITH MY PURCHASE AND ALSO WITH MY DEALER. EVER SINCE I OWNED MY 1996 CHEVY BLAZER I'VE HAD PROBLEMS WITH IT AND THE DEALERSHIP HAS CONTINUED TO TAKE ADVANTAGE AS ME AS A CUSTOMER. I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW UNPROFESSIONAL A DEALERSHIP CAN BE AND ALSO HOW A NEW VEHICLE CAN BE SO UNRELIABLE. THE 4TH DAY I HAD THIS TRUCK 4 -WHEEL DRIVE WENT OUT, I TOOK IT TO WILLIAM CHEVROLET AND THEY TOOK 2 WEEKS TO FIX IT, NOT ONLY THAT, BUT THEY TOLD ME TO RENT A CAR KNOWING THAT I WAS UNDER 25, INSTEAD OF LENDING ME A REPLACEMENT CAR. IN LAST 3 YEARS THE BRAKES HAVE GONE OUT ON ME 8 TIMES, AND THE DEALERSHIP WOULDN'T ONCE COVER IT. MY WIPER MOTOR WENT OUT JUST BEFORE THE WIPER PIECE RECALL WENT OUT, I PAID FOR THEM TO FIX IT, AND GIVE ME A NEW MOTOR. BUT THEN, WHEN I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP WITH THE RECALL THEY WOULDN'T REIMBURSE ME FOR THE MOTOR JUST THE PIECE. I DON'T UNDERSTAND IF THAT PIECE CAUSED MY WIPER MOTOR TO GO OUT THAT WHY DO I HAVE TO PAY FOR IT? MY HEATER IS NOW NOT WORKING TO IT'S FULLEST AND IT'S THE MIDDLE OF WINTER. WE JUST GOT 21 INCHES OF SNOW AND MY 4 WHEEL DRIVE IS NOT WORKING AGAIN. I WAS UNAWARE THAT MY 4 WHEEL DRIVE WAS NOT WORKING 2 DAYS AGO, I TURNED ONTO INDIANAPOLIS BLVD, AND MY BLAZER DID A 360 IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY INTERSECTION, ALMOST CAUSING A 4 CAR ACCIDENT. AFTER THAT I CHECKED TO SEE IF MY FRONT WHEEL WERE MOVING, AND OFCOURSE THEY WEREN'T, THEREFORE I ONLY HAVE REAR WHEEL DRIVE ON A $25,000 4X4. THE LAST 2 DAYS HAVE BEEN HELL, FIRST I COULD NOT GET MY TRUCK OUT OF ITS PARKING SPOT AFTER I'D SHOVELED FOR AN HOUR, AFTER I FINALLY GOT IT OUT, IT GOT STUCK IN THE SNOW ABOUT 7 TIMES, WHILE 1989 ESCORTS ARE DRIVING AROUND EFFORTLESSLY. IT'S SO RIDICULOUS, I HAVE TO BE AFRAID TO TAKE MY TRUCK AROUND THE BLOCK BECAUSE IT GETS STUCK IN AN INCH OF SNOW. I'M SITTING HERE NOW BECAUSE MY VEHICLE CAN'T GET ME TO WORK.
