Fuel gauge ceases to function. Will correctly register full tank. As fuel is burned, the gauge level goes down until it reads half full, then starts going back up. When the tank is nearly empty, the gauge will read full. This is a common defect among Blazer owners, and GM acknowledges it in their service bulletins but no service solution is provided.

Fuel gage was reading full and we ran out of gas. I thought my wife had filled the car up and she thought I had. So, fortunately we were only 10-15 miles from help. We added a couple gallons of gas and filled up at the gas station. The problem hasn't been fixed yet. Gage seems to read ok till half a tank, then it seems to stay around a half a tank.

Windshield wipers lose intermittent function and stick in low speed. Usually happens in a light rainstorm. Wipers, when malfunctioning, also will stay on going at low speed even with the switch turned off. Gas gauge also is not functioning right and has a tendency to bounce from extreme to extreme without warning.

The transmission in my vehicle has a defective valve body and it caused my transmission to break, I went to the dealer when I first had the problem of a hard shift from first to second gear when the vehicle was being driven long distances. The dealer said the vehicle is shifting fine and to bring it back when it does it again. This was back on 08/19/02 and now I have a code 1870 on the computer and the transmission is shot. I found out the transmission is a 4L60E and it is very unreliable. Also I already had to change my water pump and alternator and my gas gauge does not work and there is a problem with my windshield wipers also.
