1997 CHEVROLET BLAZER Fuel System, Gasoline Problems

FUEL PUMP ALWAYS READS FULL. I RAN OUT OF GAS YESTERDAY, AND THAT IS ENOUGH. I KNOW OF TWO OTHER BLAZERS AT MY WORK THAT ARE DOING THE SAME THING. TIME FOR THE SENDING UNIT TO BE RECALLED. *NM

OWNING THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN A NIGHTMARE AND A FINANCIAL DRAIN. WINDSHIELD WIPERS WORKED WHEN THEY CHOSE, REPLACED WIPER MOTOR DUE TO DEFECTIVE PART. UPPER AND LOWER BALL JOINTS ALL HAD TO BE REPLACED. WHEEL BEARINGS HAD TO BE REPLACED. A/C STOPPED WORKING, HAD IT LOOKED AT AND RECHARGED AND IT STILL DOESN'T WORK. FUEL GAGE DIDN'T WORK, REPLACED FUEL SENSOR AND SENDING UNIT. REAR WIPER QUIT WORKING, REPLACED REAR WIPER MOTOR, A FEW DAYS LATER IT DOES NOT WORK AGAIN. REPLACED WATER PUMP, HAVE REPLACED ABS ONLY TO GET A RECALL AFTER THE FACT WITH NO REIMBURSEMENT. WEARS THROUGH BRAKE PADS ENTIRELY TOO FAST. REPLACED ALTERNATOR AND BATTERY TWICE. REAR HATCH DOES NOT UNLOCK WITH KEY. HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM THEY MIGHT AS WELL NOT EXIST. WATER LEAKS INTO INTERIOR ON DRIVERS SIDE DUE TO A BAD SEAL. IDLER ARM NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. GAS PEDAL STICKS. NOW HEATER FAN WORKS SOMETIMES. READING THROUGH THE COMPLAINTS WE ARE ALL EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEMS AND NOTHING IS BEING DONE ABOUT IT. RECALLS ISSUED ON SOME VEHICLES BUT NOT ALL? NOW I HEAR GM PUT A BAD INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET ON THESE AS WELL AS SEVERAL OTHER CARS (1997) AND DID NOT ISSUE A RECALL BECAUSE IT IS NOT A SAFETY MATTER! THIS CAUSES ANTIFREEZE TO LEAK INTO THE ENGINE AND ULTIMATELY ENDS IN A REPAIR OF AT LEAST 1500.00. AFTER MY EXPERIENCE WITH THIS VEHICLE I WILL BE PURCHASING SOON AND IT MOST LIKELY WILL NOT BE GM. SAD SINCE MY DAD WORKED FOR THEM FOR 30 YEARS. THEY SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR PUTTING A BAD PRODUCT ON THE MARKET AND LEAVING US TO DRY. *NM

DT: THE CONTACT OWNS A 1997 CHEVROLET S10 BLAZER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ORIGINAL COMPUTER TO THE VEHICLE MALFUNCTIONED AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE CONSUMER REPLACED THE COMPUTER, BUT THIS DID NOT REMEDY THE PROBLEM. A CERTIFIED TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THERE WAS GASOLINE THAT WENT INTO THE COMPUTER UNDERNEATH THE HOOD THROUGH THE WIRING HARNESS. THE DETERMINATION OF THE GASOLINE LEAKAGE HAS NOT BEEN DECIDED. THE CONSUMER CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER, AND THEY WOULD FILE AND CLAIM AND POSSIBLY REVIEW IT, AND REFERRED THE CONSUMER TO CONTACT NHTSA. *AK

AFTER THE IGNITION SWITCH WENT OUT(12-5-04) -THE FUEL PUMP WENT OUT AND HAD TO BE REPAIRED. AS YOU TRY TO DRIVE OFF THE CAR WOULD DIE OUT YOU WOULD HAVE TO TRY TO CRANK IT AGAIN-MASH THE PEDDLE IT TO THE FLOOR AND IT WOULD RUN A FEW FEET AND DIE AGAIN. CAR HAD TO BE TOWED(6-12-05)... CAR STARTS BUT IT MAKES A NOISE WHEN RUNNING. *NM

I BOUGHT MY RIG UNDER A YEAR AGO AND HAVE BEEN HAVEING PROBLEMS WITH THE TRASMISSION,I HAVE RUN OUT OF GAS MANY TIMES BECAUSE IT DOESN'T REGISTER,MY AIR CONDITIONER DOESN'T WORK RIGHT,MY BRAKES HAVE LOCKED UP A FEW TIMES AND WHEN I TURN A CORNER IT SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING CRAHING UNDER MY RIG.I HAVE HAD NOTHING DONE YET BECAUSE IT IS GOING TO COST ME A WHOLE LOT TO HAVE ALL THIS REPLACED.MY STEREO WENT DEAD ABOUT A WEEK AFTER I GOT IT ALSO.I THOUGHT I WAS BUYING A GOOD RIG BUT,NOW I AM FINDING OUT DIFFERENT AND I PAID GOOD MONEY FOR AND AM STILL PAYING FOR IT.I HAVE REPLACED THE HEATER CORE IT WENT OUT 3 WEEKS AFTER I GOT IT,THE WINDOW WENT OUT A FEW DAY'S AFTER I GOT IT AND FORD BARELY REPLACED THAT FOR ME.*AK

BALL JOINT UPPER CONTROL ARM BROKE AS I WAS DRIVING TODAY. SINCE I PURCHASED THIS 1997 BLAZER I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS-THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS FAIL,THE WATER PUMP HAS BEEN REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP HAS ALSO BEEN REPLACED. THIS VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 60,000 MILES. I JUST FOUND OUT THAT MOST OF THESE PROBLEM HAVE BEEN RECALLED I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED.

FUEL GAUGE NOT WORKING PROPERLY, NEVER GO UNDER ONE HALF TANK READING. I TALKED TO TWO OTHER OWNER OF THE SAME MAKE & MODEL, AND THEY SAID THEY HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM.

PRIMARY: ELECTRICAL FAILURES! IGNITION SWITCH; MULTIPLE ELECTRICAL FAILURES WITH INTERIOR LIGHTS FOR WHICH NO ONE CAN FIGURE OUT WHAT IS HAPPENING; CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS COME ON SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE EVEN AFTER DEALER WORKED ON IT; VEHICLE STALLING OUT WHILE DRIVING ALMOST CAUSED ACCIDENT; ALTERNATOR REPLACEMENT; MULTIPLE BATTERIES -DRAIN FOR UNIDENTIFIED REASON; FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM AND PUMP; UNEXPLAINED NOISES IN THE FRONT END; FRONT BALL JOINTS LOOSE FOR WHICH THE DEALERSHIP WOULD NOT REPLACE WHEN I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE BECAUSE THEY SAID IT WAS WITHIN FACTORY LIMITS EVEN THOUGH MY MECHANIC SAID THAT THEY WERE NOT; AT THIS POINT I HAVE BECOME AFRAID TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE DUE TO THE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS AND STALLING BUT FEEL THAT I HAVE NO CHOICE BECAUSE THE COSTS TO MAINTAIN THE VEHICLE IS THAT OF THE PAYMENTS AND SOMETIMES MORE AND I CANNOT AFFORD THE REQUIRED MONEY DOWN TO REPLACE IT. BOTTOM LINE -I AM GETTING RID OF IT AS SOON AS I CAN SINCE I HAVE SPOKEN TO OTHER OWNERS WHO HAVE HAD SIMILAR RECURRENT PROBLEMS. I NEED A RELIABLE VEHICLE. THIS IS NOT ONE AND FROM WHAT I HAVE SEEN AND DEALT WITH -1997 CHEVY BLAZERS ARE NOT. THE RULE OUT THERE IS YOU EITHER HAVE A GOOD ONE OR A BAD ONE AND I CANNOT AFFORD ON MANY FRONTS THE ONE I HAVE. AT LEAST CHEVY SHOULD OWN UP TO THE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS PARTICULARLY SINCE IT IS TIED TO A MOVING VEHICLE STALLING OUT AND PUTTING PEOPLES LIVES AT RISK. I WILL NOT OWN ANOTHER CHEVY ONCE I CAN GET RID OF THIS ONE. THE INCIDENT DATE REFERS TO THE PERIOD STARTING WITH THE ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT FAILURES. *LA
