I have had numerous problems with my 2000 Chevy Blazer ls 4X4. Under warranty the dealer replaced the oil lines by the oil filter, whole seat mechanism, driver side window motor, rear shock. They also fixed my hood rattle after 5 visits to the dealer and I told them what was wrong the first time it went in. Since then at 40,000 miles the driver side wheel bearing went out and had it replaced and at the same time had the fuel pump replaced since that went out also. At 50,000 miles the same one went out again and had it replaced. Now at 68,000 miles the passenger side wheel bearing is bad. Also on my first wheel bearing replacement, they told me the ball joints were very loose and should think about replacing those also. These things should never be going wrong with such low miles. From what I am reading on the web and hearing from the dealers, this is a very frequent problem that Chevy will not recall and take responsibility. I sure am happy that I haven't had a wheel fall off and kill someone yet.
