IT STARTED WITH MY GAUGES BOUNCING ALL OVER GOING ON AND OFF , THEN IT FELT LIKE THE BRAKES WERE ON AND I HAD TO GIVE IT ALOT OF GAS TO GET GOING.NOW THE DASH WILL WORK WHEN I TURN THE KEY ON BUT AS SOON AS IT STARTS IT GOES OUT WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE OIL PRESSURE AND THE CHARGING GAUGE. THE TRANSMISSION ISNT WORKING RIGHT AT ALL AND I DONT DARE DRIVE IT ANYWHERE. THE FUSE BOX UNDER THE HOOD DOES NOT TEST RIGHT, ONLY ABOUT HALF OF IT HAS POWER AND I AM AT A LOSS THERE! THERE HAS BEEN ELECTRICAL PROBNLEMS WITH IT EVER SINCE I BOUGHT IT.

MY CUSTOMER COMPLAINED OF A TRANSMISSION FAILURE INVOLVING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO A DTC P0785. I ASKED MY CUSTOMER IF THE INVOLVED VEHICLE (2000 CHEVROLET BLAZER) HAD ANY DEALER OR AFTER MARKET ACCESSORIES INSTALLED, CUSTOMER ADAMANTLY REPLIED: NO, "BONE STOCK GM." MY CUSTOMER WAS NOT AWARE THAT THE INVOLVED VEHICLE HAD A THEFT DETERRENT SYSTEM, MANUFACTURED BY "KARR" AND DISTRIBUTED BY AUDIOVOX WITH INSTALLERS NATIONWIDE. I HAVE BEEN ACTIVELY INVOLVED WITH GM DEALERSHIPS FOR OVER FORTY YEARS AND POSSESS A WEALTH OF EXPERIENCE IN PARTS AND SERVICE EXPERIENCE. I REMOVED THE SUSPECT SECURITY SYSTEM AND REPAIRED THE DAMAGED WIRING WHICH RESULTED IN THE IMPROPER INSTALLATION. IN THE PAST WEEK I HAVE BEEN CONFRONTED WITH FOUR CUSTOMER COMPLAINTS WHICH RESULTED FROM SECURITY SYSTEMS, AFTERMARKET RADIOS AND INCLUDING AFTERMARKET HEADLAMPS. THESE AFTERMARKET COMPONENTS ARE THE DIRECT CAUSE OF SYSTEM FAILURES INVOLVING ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS, LIGHTS, AND NUMEROUS ELECTRICAL FAILURES. I SINCERELY REQUEST IMMEDIATE AND THOROUGH INVESTIGATION WHICH I REMAIN CONFIDENT WILL RESULT IN MASSIVE RECALLS OF THESE INFERIOR PRODUCTS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 CHEVROLET BLAZER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEATER AND AIR CONDITIONER FAILED TO FUNCTION. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FOUR WHEEL DRIVE WAS ACTIVATED, BUT FAILED TO ENGAGE AND THE OIL PRESSURE GAUGE DISPLAYED AN INCORRECT READING. THE ABS WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSFER CASE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000.

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

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

ALWAYS SMELL FUEL WHILE DRIVING REPLACED ALL FUEL SYSTEMS THEN ALL SENSORS NEEDED REPLACING SO I DID THAT AND NOW THERE TELLING ME I HAVE A ELECTRIC PROBLEMS SINCE BUYING THIS VEHICLE NEW I PUT OVER 6000.00 DOLLARS INTO AND I STILL HAVE ALL THE SAME PROBLEMS MOSTLY WITH THE FUEL SYSTEM I STILL SMELL ALOT OF FUEL WHEN DRIVING AND BACK FIRING AND SHUTTING OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING I HAVE ALL MY RECEIPTS FROM WORK DONE ON THE WHOLE FUEL SYSTEM AND I'VE LOOKED UP THIS KIND OF BLAZER AND EVERYONE WHO OWNED ONE HAS THE SAME PROBLEMS. *TR

MY 2000 BLAZER LS 2DR 4X4 HAS IPC PROBLEMS. THE IPC LIGHTS HAVE GONE OUT AND DO NOT ILLUMINATE THE GAUGES, THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD WHEN DRIVING. THE ABS AND PARKING BRAKE INDICATOR LIGHTS GO ON AND OFF. THE PARKING BRAKE STICKS AND WONT RELEASE. DUE TO THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS, RECALLS, AND SERVICE BULLETINS ISSUED ON THESE SAFETY PROBLEMS I THINK MORE SHOULD BE DONE TO HOLD THE MANUFACTURER RESPONSIBLE FOR REPAIRING THESE DEFECTS. THE FIRST 11 DIGITS OF MY VIN MATCH AT LEAST 2 OTHER VEHICLES FIRST 11 DIGITS AND YET CHEVY DOESN'T FEEL THEY SHOULD FIX THE ISSUE WITH ALL BLAZERS. I AM CONCERNED WITH THE SAFETY OF MY VEHICLE. *TR

11/18/2009: SMOKE WAS COMING FROM THE STEERING COLUMN. SPOKE WITH A FAMILY MEMBER WHO WORKS AS A TECHNICIAN FOR PEP BOYS. HE BELIEVED THE CAUSE TO BE THE MULTIFUNCTION SWITCH. 11/20/2009: BRAKE LIGHTS WOULD NOT TURN OFF EVEN WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF. THEY STAYED ON UNTIL THEY COMPLETELY DRAINED MY BATTERY. LOOKED UP RECALLS AND FOUND THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE MULTIFUNCTION SWITCH: NHTSA ACTION NUMBER: RQ08001. 11/21/2009: CALLED THE GM NUMBER LISTED ON THE NHTSA RECALL FORM TO ASK FOR ASSISTANCE WITH THE COST OF REPLACING THE PART. WAS REFUSED ASSISTANCE AND GIVEN THE FOLLOWING REASONS: MY PARTICULAR VIN WAS NOT ONE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. I DIDN'T PURCHASE MY VEHICLE FROM A GM DEALER. I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE USED (THERE WAS ONLY ONE PREVIOUS OWNER). MY VEHICLE HAS OVER 100,000 MILES ON IT. I DON'T HAVE A (PROVEN) HISTORY OF BEING A LOYAL GM OWNER. I DON'T HAVE MY REPAIRS DONE AT A GM DEALER. THE ESTIMATED COST OF THE MULTIFUNCTION SWITCH ITSELF IS $200. THAT DOES NOT INCLUDE LABOR. THE REPAIR NEEDS TO BE DONE IMMEDIATELY AS THE VEHICLE IS UNABLE TO BE DRIVEN AS IS. *TR

GO TO VEHICLE, TRY TO START, "SECURITY" LAMP BEGINS TO FLASH. NO START ISSUE. HAVE TO WAIT FOR 10 MINUTES AND TRY AGAIN, ABOUT 50% OF THE TIME IS STARTS, OTHER 50% YOU HAVE TO WAIT ANOTHER 10 MINUTES AND TRY AGAIN.... GM PASSLOCK SYSTEM ISSUE. IS IT THE IGNITION, THE BCM, THE ECM....? *TR

I HAVE A 2000 BLAZER AND I HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE FUEL GAUGE FOR THE LAST 6 MONTHS. IT FLUCTUATES BETWEEN FULL & EMPTY CONSTANTLY.

SEE NHTSA ITEM# 623034. SECURITY LAMP ILLUMINATES WHILE DRIVING AND THEN THE ASSOCIATED "PASSLOCK" SECURITY SYSTEM EITHER STALLS OUT MY ENGINE WHILE DRIVING OR CAUSES A SHUT-DOWN OF MY VEHICLE WHEREBY THE ENGINE WILL NOT START FOR AT LEAST 10 MINUTES. THIS HAS HAPPENED LATE AT NIGHT, AT INTERSECTIONS, GAS STATIONS, ETC. THE AMOUNT OF TIMES I HAVE HAD TO WAIT FOR THIS SECURITY SYSTEM TO "RESET" HAS BECOME FRUSTRATING. I HAVE DONE EXTENSIVE RESEARCH ON THIS VIA RESPECTABLE ONLINE FORUMS, AND THERE ARE MANY OWNERS NOT JUST OF THE 2000 CHEVROLET BLAZER BUT OF A NUMBER OF VEHICLES IN THE ENTIRE GM FAMILY WHO HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM. WE ARE ALL CRYING OUT FOR A RECOGNITION OF THIS BEING A SAFETY ISSUE, NOT JUST AN ISSUE OF INCONVENIENCE. FAILURE TO START AND STALLING ARE SYMPTOMS THAT ARE ONLY GOING TO LEAD IN ONE DIRECTION. THERE ARE LITERALLY HUNDREDS OF POSTS ON THIS ISSUE IF ONE GOES TO AN ONLINE FORUM AND SEARCHES UNDER THE TERMS "SECURITY LIGHT" OR "PASSLOCK" WITHIN THE GM CONTEXT. I HAVE BEEN TO MY DEALER NUMEROUS TIMES, HAVE ATTEMPTED TO WORK WITH CHEVROLET, AND NOTHING SEEMS TO BE GETTING RESOLVED. I AM UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT A MECHANICAL SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM DOES NOT EXIST, SHORT OF DISABLING THE SYSTEM ALTOGETHER (WHICH DEALERS ARE NOT ALLOWED TO DO). I WOULD WELCOME ANY FURTHER CONTACT FROM NHTSA REGARDING THIS MATTER AND WOULD GLADLY GO TO THE EXPENSE OF PHOTOCOPYING AND SENDING THE BINDER OF MATERIALS I HAVE COLLECTED ON THIS SUBJECT. IF IT WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN PREVENTING A FUTURE INJURY OR DEATH (IF ANY HAVE NOT ALREADY OCCURRED), I AM ALL FOR IT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND EFFORTS ON BEHALF OF AUTO SAFETY. *TR

THE HANDLE THAT ALLOWS YOU TO RECLINE THE SEAT BROKE OFF FLUSHED WITH THE SEAT, THIS HAPPENED TO BOTH THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SEATS IN JUNE 2005. THE HOOD WILL NOT POP UP WHEN THE LEVER WAS PULLED UNTIL ONE BANGED ON THE GRILL OR THE HOOD IN CERTAIN SPOTS, WHICH JUST STARTED IN MARCH OF 2007. THE GAS MILEAGE DROPPED FROM 20 MPG TO 16 MPG WITHIN 6 MONTHS. THE BACK GLASS STUCK AND WAS HARD TO OPEN, STARTED IN 2006. WHEN TURNING ON THE AIR CONDITIONER (A/C ) THE CAR HAD NO POWER, I HAVE TO TURN IT OFF WHEN ACCELERATING ON THE INTERSTATE OR ON HILLS. IF THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS SET IT KICKED OFF WHEN THE A/C WAS ON. WHEN I NEEDED TO STOP QUICKLY THE BRAKES FAILED, AND FELT A GRINDING SENSATION THROUGH THE PEDAL, BUT THE MECHANIC CHANGED THE BRAKES AND CHECKED THE ROTORS, BUT HASN'T FOUND ANY PROBLEM. SUSPECTED A DEFECT SOMEWHERE IN THE BRAKE SYSTEM\ AS OF 2005. THE FAN KICKED ON ALL THE TIME, EVEN WHEN THE ENGINE WAS COLD, AND IN WINTER WHEN FIRST STARTING. ONE MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT IN MANY BLAZERS THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER BROKE OFF IN THE MUFFLER, WHICH HAD TO BE REPLACED. HAD BEEN TOLD THIS HAPPENED SO MUCH THAT MOST PEOPLE LEFT THEM OFF. TOO MANY OTHER PROBLEMS TO MENTIONED. ALSO, THE HORN WORKED ONLY WHEN IT WANTED TO, PROBLEM IN THE STEERING WHEEL. *AK

I BOUGHT THE 2000 BLAZER USED JUST OVER A YEAR AGO AND HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS. TO BEGIN, I REPLACED THE ALTERNATOR, FUEL PUMP, AND VIRTUALLY ALL SUSPENSION COMPONENTS IN THE FRONT END WITH JUST OVER 65,000 MILES. ON VACATION DURING ONE OF THE HOTTEST DAYS OF THE YEAR TRAVELING HOME THE BLAZER OVER HEATED AND LEFT MY FAMILY AND I STRANDED ON A MAJOR INTERSTATE WITH NO A/C FOR NEARLY AN HOUR BEFORE GETTING TOWED TO THE WORST CHEVROLET DEALER IN THE COUNTRY(RICHMOND, VA). WE WERE FORCED TO PAY FOR A NEW RADIATOR AND MISCELLANEOUS PARTS TOTALING OVER $600. THEY SAID THE COOLANT SYSTEM WAS FULL OF RUST AND THE RADIATOR WAS PLUGGED AND COULD NOT BE REUSED. NOW I'M EXPERIENCING THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON THAT WILL NOT GO OUT. AFTER NUMEROUS TRIPS TO THE DEALER THAT STARTED WITH LEAKING OIL COOLER LINES, THEY SAID THAT THE CRANK SENSOR WAS GOING BAD. I REPLACED IT, STILL THE LIGHT STAYS ON. NEXT THEY SAY THERE IS A MISFIRE IN CYLINDER 2, I REPLACE THE PLUGS, WIRES, ROTOR, AND CAP. STILL THE LIGHT STAYS ON. ALL OF THESE REPAIRS WITHIN THE FIRST 14 MONTHS OF OWNING THIS JUNK AND IT IS NOT ANYWHERE NEAR BEING PAID FOR. GM NEEDS TO FIX THESE PROBLEMS. I HAVE SPOKE WITH OTHER BLAZER OWNERS AND THEY TOO HAVE EXPERIENCED NOTHING BUT TROUBLE. AND THE BIG 3 WONDER WHY THEY ARE LOSING CUSTOMERS AND MARKET SHARE. HAVE THEY EVER HEARD OF QUALITY? LOOKS LIKE I'M GOING FOREIGN. *JB

I OWN A 2000 CHEVY BLAZER AND WHEN IT RAINS THE BRAKES GO OUT THE VEHICLE WILL NOT STOP THE PEDAL WON'T GO TO THE FLOOR AND IT WHEN YOU TRY TO PUSH THE BREAKS IT MAKES A FUNNY CLICKING KIND OF NOISE AND THE PEDAL JUST HOPS NOT LETTING YOU BREAK. THEN WHEN YOU TAKE OFF AFTER YOU STOPPED (BY THE EMERGENCY BREAK)THE BACK END SLIDES SIDEWAYS LIKE THE FRONT BREAKS ARE LOCKED UP. I ALMOST KILLED MYSELF AND MY KIDS BECAUSE I COULDN'T STOP! THAT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS! IT ONLY HAPPENS WHEN IT RAINS OR GO THROUGH WATER. OTHERS WITH THE SAME KIND OF VEHICLE SAID THE HAD THAT PROBLEM AS WELL. *NM

I PURCHASED MY 2000 BLAZER LS 2DR 4X4 WITH 58000 MILES. AT SPEEDS AROUND 65-70, IT VIBRATES PRETTY HARSHLY. I HAVE BRAND NEW TIRES, BREAKS, AND MY U-JOINTS AND BEARINGS HAVE BEEN INSPECTED AND FOUND TO BE FINE. STILL HAVE VIBRATION. I HAVE NOTICED VIA THE INTERNET THAT THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH BLAZER'S AND IT IS JUST A DEFECT IN THE WAY THE DRIVETRAIN WAS BUILT. I FEEL THAT THIS PROBLEM SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED AND REPAIRED BY GM. ALSO AT 58000 MILES I HAD TO REPLACE THE ALTERNATER. I SPOKE WITH THE PERSON WHO I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE FROM AND THEY SAID THAT THEY HAD REPLACED IT ONCE ALSO, THEREFORE THIS WOULD BE THE 3RD ALTERNATER IN UNDER 60000 MILES.

CONSUMER STATES THAT WHEN STARTING UP THE VEHICLE AND NO WARNING THE BATTERY WILL BE DEAD AND THE BRAKE LIGHTS WILL NOT WORK. DEALER NOTIFIED TS

HORN IS NOT RECEIVING ELECTRICITY, FUSES ARE OKAY. NLM

THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START AT FIRST ATTEMPT. BUT WHEN THE CONSUMER PUT THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL AND PUT KEY IN IGNITION AGAIN IT STARTED RIGHT UP. THEN THE CONSUMER NOTICED THAT THE RADIO WAS FLASHING NUMBERS AND WORDS AND THEN FADED OUT AND STOPPED WORKING. THE CONSUMER STATED THAT ALL THESE FAILURES WERE DUE TO ELECTRICAL FAILURE AND WANTS INVESTIGATION ON THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. *YH

THE 2000 CHEVY BLAZER IS A MECHANICAL AND SAFTEY NIGHTMARE! THIS VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED BRAND NEW/LEASE AND I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS FROM THE BEGINNING. THE EXHAUST HAS NEVER SOUNDED NORMAL; IT HAS A PREIGNITION (RATTLE-LIKE) NOISE, AND I WAS RECENTLY TOLD THAT THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER IS BAD. THE ALTERNATOR FAILED AT APPROXIMATELY 12000 MILES. THE HAZARD LIGHTS FAILED IN APRIL 2002, AND THE BRAKE LIGHTS FAILED SHORTLY AFTER. THE STEERING PROBLEMS INCLUDE: CLUNKING WHEN TURNING TO THE LEFT, A SHIFT IN THE FRONT END (FEELS LIKE THE FRONT PASS. SIDE STEERING COMPONENTS ARE LOOSE). THE VEHICLE IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO CONTROL ON FREEWAY DUE TO LOOSE STEERING AND INABILITY TO CONTROL ON TRANSITIONING/UNEVEN PAVEMENT. THE DEALER HAS REPLACED FRONT PASS-SIDE TIEROD AND STABILIZER, AND THE STEERING WHEEL NOW HAS A 12-15DEGREE, OFF-CENTER, RIGHT LIST. CUTTER CHEVEROLET OF HAWAII IS NOW HAVING US TRY TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM(S), AND TRYING EVERYTHING THEY CAN TO NOT ACCEPT THAT THE VEHICLE IS, IN FACT, A "LEMON"! WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO PROVE THAT A VEHICLE IS JUST NOT A GOOD VEHICLE; DOES MY FAMILY HAVE TO GET INJURED OR DIE TO PROVE THERE IS A PROBLEM! WE ARE A "GM-FAMILY"(ENTITLED TO GM FAMILY DISCOUNTS), AND THIS IS HOW WE GET TREATED. . .NO ACCEPTENCE OF RESPONSIBILITY OR PRIDE/HONESTY IN THEIR PRODUCT. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER GM PRODUCT; EVER! THE DEALERSHIP, GM FACTORY, AND GMAC SHOULD RIGHTFULLY ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY AND TAKE THE VEHICLE BACK. I HAVE BETTER THINGS TO PAY $384.00 PER MONTH! JAPANESE ATOMOTIVE INDUSTRY. . .HERE WE COME! ~ DON SCHRADER, PEARL HARBOR, HAWAII. *AK
