Truck was a little over its warranty at 36,000 miles. Contacted Chevrolet dealer and was told that the current problem was "common" with Blazer. The dealer said I should have bought the extended warranty. Now I'm looking at a charge of $540 on a new vehicle because I didn't buy the 50,000 mile warranty. Does this sound like good coustomer treatment? - "screwed".

To whom it may concern, I'm very upset and dissatisfied first of all the first day I purchased the 2001 Chevrolet Blazer I had it not even a week and people where noticing the drivers side must have been damaged at the factory, so I brought it back and phillips Chevrolet was shocked to see this also, and I am leasing this vehicle and definitely was going get blamed for something that was defected from the start.they where great the exchanged the vehicle for me and this is a lemon also I am very upset at the fact that this is 4times now that my fuel injectors have messed up and I have taken this vehicle 2 times to O'conner Chevrolet where they have replaced one and cleaned them both times.so then it happens for a third time so I take it to phillips where I bought it thinking the will take beeter care of there vehicle, they cleah 3 injectors 3 times they said and reset the codes, and told me to use shell gas so I did this and now exactly a month later my engine service light came on again3/29/02.now im very upset to where I dont even want this vehicle. Also the multi-function switch has been replaced.so now you tell me should I be happy I dont think so.icant afford to keep taking off from my job for this inconvience.what a joke.

The theft-deterrent alarm goes off for no reason when parked and locked up. The oil pressure gauge moves eratically, dome lights and floor lights come on by themself and sometime stay on for a long time and sometime consistantly flash off and on, radio shuts off when turn engine off(not suppose to), and check engine light came on for a few days then just went off. The dealer replaced the BCM #9385236 but vehicle is still not fixed after several visits back to dealer.
