Blazer 4WD 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • miles
After pulling into the parking lot of work, I was getting out of the vehicle and the spring that was attached to the truck door just fell off and on the ground. Now, as the time is passing the interior light doesn't work and the electrical panel on the driver's door is getting worse. I can only lock the driver's door from the outside and the alarm goes off everytime I open the door. I have to keep slamming it to make the door completely close. I haven't been to anyone yet because I believe this will be a big expense.

I am pregnant and very scared to drive this vehicle again. I was told by rick, service manager, toni hall at flow Chevrolet a year ago that this 4X2 and 4X4 wheel drive was corrected while under warranty. They refused to fix the major problem and changed out a switch. During this whole year I haven't been able to drive comfortablly. Now they have had to replace the whole front end. A brand new car now with only 39,000 miles. The noise is terrifying and I've been insulted by GM with a loyalty incentive for $700 to take off on a new vehicle. No one can asure me that I will be safe, even after they told me it was fixed a year ago. I'm scared to drive it. I will leave it at their place until they can get me a safe car to drive.

On Feb 4th, 2004 the service engine light came on so I took the Blazer to the dealership(bert greenwald) to find out what was going on. I was told that the "air line & valve air pump assembly needed to be replaced. It's now May 4th, 2004 and I am still waiting for the part to come in. Each time I inquire about it, I am told that General Motors doesnt want them to order the part until they come up with a plan to deal with this problem since it seems to be occurring very frequently. I feel that 3 months is to long to be waiting for feedback on this even though the dealership has said they not charging me to replace the part.
