2000 Chevrolet Blazer complaints

BOTH BRAKE-ABS LIGHTS COME ON INTERMITTENTLY. VEHICLE INTO DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES WITH DIFFERENT DIAGNOSIS, EVEN THOUGH, SPEED SENSOR WAS MENTIONED EACH TIME BUT NEVER REPAIRED. CURRENTLY, GM RECALL FOR SPEED SENSOR BRAKE PROBLEM DOES NOT INCLUDE 2000 CHEVY BLAZER NOR THE STATE OF MISSOURI. THIS IS STILL A ONGOING PROBLEM ON MY VEHICLE. *JB

MY VEHICLE WAS RECENTLY PURCHASED FROM A COWORKER WITH A KNOWN RECALL THAT WAS ALREADY FIXED ONCE AND NOW IS NOT FUNCTIONING AGAIN. I CALLED CHEVROLET AND THEY TOLD ME THERE IS NOT MUCH THEY COULD DO SINCE IT WAS BEYOND THE WARRANTY ,I HAD IT DIAGNOSED AT A DEALERSHIP WHICH COST ME $85.00 TO TELL ME WHAT I ALREADY KNEW BUT THEY WOULD NOT FIX IT. THIS IS FAILURE THAT IS KNOWN AND I BELIEVE WAS NOT CORRECTED THE FIRST TIME SO I SHOULD NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPAIR COSTS SINCE IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE. THE ITEM IS A 4 WAY SWITCH. *NM

ON SEPT 10 2005 I TOOK MY CAR TO HAVE A TUNE UP DONE ON IT AND THE MECHANIC TOLD MY HUSBAND THAT THE REAR END OF MY VEHICLE WAS ABOUT TO GO. I HAD JUST PURCHASED THE VEHICLE ABOUT 7 MONTHS PRIOR TO THIS HAPPENING AND I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THIS SHOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED ON A 2000 CHEV BLAZER, WITH THAT LOW OF MILEAGE. I HAD NOTIFIED THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR AND THEY IN TURN WANTED TO PUT ME INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE BUT THAT IS NOT WHAT I WANTED I HAD WANTED THEM TO FIX MY CAR THE ONE THAT THEY HAD SOLD TO ME. I WANT TO KNOW IF THERE IS ANYTHING THAT CAN BE DONE TO GET MY CAR TO RUN RIGHT, SO THAT I MAY USE IT AND NOT PAY FOR ONE TO SIT IN MY DRIVE WAY. AND I WANTED TO FIND OUT IF THIS HAPPENED TO ANY OTHER 2000 CHEV BLAZERS? SINCERELY YOURS SUSAN BURGOS. *JB

BEGAN WITH LOUD UNDERCARRIAGE NOISE WHEN SHIFTING INTO SECOND. NOW TRUCK WILL NO LONGER SHIFT INTO 2ND OR REVERSE. ONLY 39,000 ORIGINAL MILES ON THIS ONE OWNER TRUCK. NOT AN ELECTRICAL OR FLUID PROBLEM. *NM

WHILE VEHICLE WAS PARKED A FIRE STARTED IN THE TURN SIGNAL SWITCH. *AK THE CONSUMER STATED EVER SINCE THE INCIDENT HAPPENED, THE ABS AND BRAKE LIGHT STAY ON. THE DEALER STATED THERE WAS NO PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKES. *JB

DT: THERE HAS BEEN A CONSTANT PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKES SINCE CONSUMER PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. WHEN APPLYING BRAKE PRESSURE THE BRAKES CHATTER/JUMP, AND SHAKE WITHIN THE BRAKES. THE VEHICLE STOPS WHEN THIS OCCURS. THIS CAN HAPPEN AT BOTH HIGH AND LOW SPEEDS WHEN APPLYING BRAKE PRESSURE. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO A DEALER NUMEROUS TIMES FOR THIS PROBLEM. THE CONSUMER DOES NOT KNOW WHAT REPAIRS HAVE BEEN MADE, BUT DOES REMEMBER SOMETHING ABOUT CALIPERS AND CORROSION. THIS IS STILL A PROBLEM. THERE IS A RECALL ON SOME CHEVROLET VEHICLES INVOLVING THE ABS, BUT CONSUMER'S VEHICLE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL. *AK

2000 CHEVROLET BLAZER BALL JOINT BROKE ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE.***NO ANSWER REQUIRED***. *MR THE ABS LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE DASHBOARD. *JB

A RECALL ON THE MULTI-PURPOSE SWITCH WAS RECIEVED AND PART WAS REPLACED IN APRIL OF 2002. ON MONDAY AUGUST 22,2005 THE SAME SWITCH WAS REPLACED AGAIN AT MY EXPENCE.GM SHOULD CORRECT THR REAL PROBLEM AND NOT JUST THE PARTS.ALSO THE PASSANGE SEAT ADJUSTER HAS BROKEN OFF.AND IN ADDITION THE TRANSMISSION FAILED AND HAD TO BE REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY.

DT: THREE YEARS AGO THE PROBLEM BEGAN. THE OWNER PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE STREET AND WHEN THE HAZARD LIGHTS WERE TURNED OFF THEN BRAKES WENT OFF AS WELL AND WOULD NOT COME BACK ON. THE MAIN TAIL LIGHTS AND BRAKE LIGHTS DID NOT WORK ANYMORE. THERE WAS A RECALL AND THE OWNER DID NOT RECEIVE THE RECALL NOTICE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE AND THE HAZARD LIGHT SWITCH WAS REPLACED. THE NEXT TIME THE HAZARD LIGHTS WERE USED, THE BRAKE LIGHTS STOPPED WORKING AGAIN. THIS HAPPENED ABOUT TEN MONTHS AFTER THE FIRST FAILURE. THEN THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER, THEY WERE WILLING TO REPAIR THE HAZARD LIGHTS AT A COST OF $500. THERE SEEMED TO BE NO INDICATION FROM THE DEALERSHIP AS TO WHY THESE HAZARDS LIGHTS KEPT FAILING. THE DEALERSHIP HAS BEEN CONTACTED BY THE OWNER AT LEAST 7 TIMES IN LAST MONTH AND A HALF. THE OWNER ATTEMPTED TO WORK IT OUT WITH GM 10 TIMES IN THE LAST MONTH AND A HALF. *AK *SC

THE DRIVER'S SEAT BACK ADJUSTMENT LEVER BROKE OFF AT THE ROD CONNECTING IT. , NO ADJUSTING COULD BE DONE. THE PART WAS REPAIRED, AND A NEW HANDLE HAD TO BE ORDERED, BECAUSE CHEVROLET DECIDEDR ROD, MADE OUT OF A HEAVIER METAL, WHICH WOULDN'T FIT THE OLD LEVER. THE RESULTING CHARGES WERE $76.35 FOR THE RECLINER, $8.37 FOR THE HANDLE, AND $86.40 FOR LABOR. THERE ARE JUST OVER 59,000 MI. ON THIS 2000 BLAZER.*AK

DT: THE BALL JOINTS ON DRIVERS SIDE BROKE SENT HEAD ON AUGUST 13, 2005. CONTACTED THE DEALER, THEY WERE OF NO HELP. CONTACTED GMC, THEY TOOK A COMPLAINT. DID NOT HEAR ANY TYPE OF NOISE OR ANY TYPE OF WARNING. THIS SEEMED TO BE A PROBLEM ON THE 4X4 VEHICLES. *AK

T-BONE COLLISION, APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH. FRONT END OF VEHICLE BADLY DAMAGED. NO AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. *NM

ON THE WAY BACK FROM A WEEKEND CAMPING TRIP WE STOPPED FOR LUNCH. WHEN WE RETURNED TO THE VEHICLE TO LEAVE THERE WAS A GRINDING NOISE AND THEN A WHIRLING NOISE AND THE REVERSE GEAR WENT OUT ON THE TRANSMISSION. WHEN WE GOT HOME AND I CALLED AROUND I FOUND THAT THIS WAS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE. *NM

PROBLEM WITH THE DEX-COOL SYSTEM IN MY 2000 CHEV BLAZER---HEATER WENT OUT JULY 2004, WAS UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY AND HEATER CORE REPLACED, RADIATOR WAS FLUSHED AT THE SAME TIME. ONE YEAR LATER VEHICLE OVER-HEATING AGAIN, NO LONGER UNDER EXT WARRANTY...PAID $212 FOR THE FLUSH TODAY AND FILED COMPLAINT W/ GM DUE TO THE OBVIOUS PROBLEM WHICH THEY DENY WITH DEX-COOL ( 8 STATES HAVE CLASS-ACTION SUITS). WAS TOLD BY GM REP THAT THE COOLANT SYSTEM IS A MAINTAINENCE ITEM AND THEY COULD NOT ASSIST OR ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY IN THE REAPAIR COST. SPOKE WITH THE GM DEALERSHIP WHO ARGUED MY CASE, ASKED WHAT MAINTAINENCE REQUIRED ON MY PART, SINCE THE DEX-COOL MAINT SCHEDULE IS 155K MILES, MAINT FREE---MY VEHICLE HAS 70K MILES AND SECOND FLUSH IN 12 MO PERIOD. WAS TOLD BY DEALERSHIP THAT NOTHING I COULD REALLY DO TO MAINTAIN, JUST KEEP CHECK ON COOLANT LEVEL EVERY OIL CHANGE, AND SYSTEM COULD FAIL AGAIN AT ANY TIME--NO GUARANTEEE AND THE DEALERSHIP ALSO ARGUED WITH GM REP---THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH DEX-COOL ANTIFREEZE.......I PAID THE COST, BUT AFTER PURCHASING GM PRODUCTS FOR THE PAST 30 YEARS, IF I AM FACED WITH ADDITIONAL COST OF AN APPARENT DEFECT BY THE MANUFACTURER...I WILL GO TO ANOTHER MAKE OF CAR---THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME

1. CHEVY BLAZER - SHIFTS HARD FROM 1ST TO 2ND 2. REVERSE QUIT WORKING 3. NOT REPAIRED YET, NEEDS NEW TRANSMISSION

POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUE REGARDING THE CHEVROLET S10'S AND THE CHEVROLET S10 BLAZERS.*MR THE CONSUMER HAD TO HAVE THE BALL JOINTS ON HER 2000 CHEVROLET BLAZER REPLACED PREMATURELY AT 73000 MILES. *NM

THE FUEL GUAGE IN MY 2000 CHEVY BLAZER STOPPED WORKING CAUSING ME TO RUN OUT OF FUEL WITH MY 4 YEAR OLD SON IN THE VEHICLE. I ALSO HAD A 1996 CHEVY BLAZER AND THE FUEL GUAGE STOPPED WORKING (MY FATHER NOW OWNS THIS VEHICLE). I CONTACTED CHEVROLET AND THEY CLAIMED THAT THEY HAVE NO REPORTS OF FUEL GUAGES THAT STOP WORKING. A VERY CLOSE FRIEND OF MINE WHO WORKED FOR CHEVROLET FOR 20 YEARS TOLD ME THAT THIS IS NOT TRUE. APPARENTLY THE FINGERS ON THE SENDING UNIT WERE FALLING OFF CAUSING THE GUAGE TO NOT WORK.

DT: CONTACT STATES THE FUEL GAUGE IS NOT CONSISTENT IN THE READINGS. IT DOES NOT MEASURE THE GASOLINE CORRECTLY. A MECHANIC STATED THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITHIN THE ELECTRONIC WIRING THAT DEALS WITH THE COMPUTER TO THE FUEL GAUGE. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN SERVICED FOR THIS PROBLEM.*AK

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.

I NOTCED SEVERAL TIMES WHEN I WOULD STOP THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD JUIMP FORWARD AND NOT COMPLETELY STOP. I WAS GOING TO THE GARAGE TO SEE MY MECHANIC. MY FAMILY AND I WERE ALMOST HIT BROADSIDE WHEN I TRIED TO STOP AT A RED LIGHT. WHEN I PUT ON THE BRAKES I SLOWED DOWN BUT WHEN I GOT UNDER 10MPH THE VEHICLE STARTED TO JUMP. THE VEHICLE FINALLY SPOPPED AFTER I WAS THROUGH THE INTERSECTION. THE MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT THE FRONT WHEEL BEARINGS WERE WORN. HE SAID THAT THE SENSORS FOR THE ABS SYSTEM WERE IN THE BEARINGS. SO WHEN I TRIED TO STOP THE ABS SYSTEM KICKED IN. THAT IS WHY I COULDN'T STOP ! THIS WAS A VERY FRIGHTENING EXPERIENCE FOR ME AND MY FAMILY. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN! THE MECHANIC REPLACED THE FRONT WHEEL BEARINGS AND THE VEHICLE SEEMS OK NOW. I AM CONCERNED THAT THIS WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. THE VEHICLE IS ONLY 5 YRS OLD.

DT: EVERY SINCE THE CONSUMER PURCHASED THE BLAZER IN 2003 THE LOWER BALL JOINTS HAD TO REPLACED FOUR TIMES. THE CONSUMER WAS THE ONLY OPERATOR OF THE VEHICLE AND SHE ONLY DROVE THE VEHICLE TO WORK. THE CURRENT MILEAGE IS 170,000. THE LOWER BALL JOINT HAS HAD TO BEEN REPLACED EVERY SIX MONTHS. *JB

THE GAS GAUGE FLUCTUATES FROM E - F WHEN MY TANK IS ONLY HALF FULL. THE ONLY WAY I KNOW HOW FAR I CAN DRIVE IS TO ZERO OUT THE TRIP ODOMETER WHEN I FILL THE GAS TANK. THIS VEHICLE HAD HAS APPROXIMATELY 55K MILES ON IT - TOO FEW FOR THIS KIND OF PROBLEM.

HAD FRONT PASSENGER SIDE WHEEL HUB (WHEEL BEARING) ASSEMBLY REPLACED IN OCTOBER 2004. IN MARCH 2005 SAME WHEEL BEARING FAILED WHICH NEEDED REPLACED AGAIN. NOW ON THE DRIVER SIDE THE WHEEL BEARING IS MAKING NOISE. I LOOKED INTO THIS AND ALOT OF PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES AND WHEEL BEARINGS. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE AS THE WHEEL BEARING HOLDS ON THE FRONT WHEEL THUS COULD CAUSE WHEEL TO FALL OFF WHILE DRIVING.

2000 CHEVROLET BLAZER HAD BALL JOINTS REPLACED.*MR *JB

2000 CHEVROLET BLAZER S10, 80000 MILES. WITHOUT WARNING UPPER BALL JOINT ON DRIVERS SIDE FRONT GAVE OUT. CAUSED EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO SUSPENSION, ABS, AXEL AND MORE.

IN A 2000 CHEVROLET BLAZER, 40000 MILES. 4 WHEEL DRIVE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL ACTUATOR FAILED TO ENGAGE AND WAS LOCKED IN 4 LOW GEARING. UPON INSPECTION IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE ACTUATOR HAD CORRODED TO THE POINT THAT IT NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE QUOTE FROM THE DEALER WAS OVER $500 FOR REPLACEMENT PART.

I JUST PURCHASED A 2000 BLAZER ZR2, WHEN THE GAS GAUGE HITS 3/4 TANK, THE GAUGE WILL BOUNCE BACK AND FORTH FROM EMPTY TO FULL. I NEVER KNOW HOW MUCH GAS I REALLY HAVE, WHICH COULD CAUSE A REAL SAFETY ISSUE TO MYSELF, LET ALONE THE HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS IT WOULD TAKE TO REPLACE THE FAULY SENSOR. I'VE FOUND THAT LOTS OF GM CONSUMERS ALSO HAVE THIS PROBLEM, WHICH I FEEL GM SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR REPLACEMENT. MY VEHICLE ONLY HAS 56000 MILES.*AK

SMOKE AND RADIATOR FUMES POURING FROM THE DEFROST AND AIR CONDITIONER VENTS.SO MUCH CONDENSATION ON WINDSHIELD MAKES VISIBILITY DIFFICULT. BREATHING RADIATOR FUMES AND FLUID POSING SERIOUS HEALTH RISK TO MY CHILDREN. SON HAD BEEN SPITTING UP BLOOD AND COMPLAINING OF HAVING DIFFICULTY WITH BREATHING BEFORE WE COULD DETERMINE IT WAS FROM THE VEHICLE ALSO CAUSES THROAT IRRITATION. THERE ARE NO INDICATOR LIGHTS ON AND THE VEHICLE WAS JUST PURCHASED ON 1/3/2005 WITH 100603 MILES.

THE TAIL LIGHTS WORK INTERMITTENTLY. PLEASE PROVIDE MORE INFORMATION. *JB

WHILE DRIVING, THE CRANK SHAFT POSITION SENOR FAILED WHICH CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO HESITATE, BUCK BACK AND FORTH AND NEARLY STOP. *BF THE CONSUMER STATED THAT THE DANGEROUS FRONT END SUSPENSION DEFECTS WHICH FAILED INCLUDED A SECOND FRONT AXLE TUBE, FRONT AXLE BEARING FAILURE BOTH TIRE ROD ENDS FRONT DRIVE SHAFT.

I HAVE EXPERIENCED FAILURE OF BOTH FRONT HUBS, I CAN UNDERSTAND ONE BUT AMAZING THAT IT WOULD HAPPEN TO BOTH. THE FIRESTONE WHERE I GO TO DID NOT DETECT A PROBLEM A MONTH BEFORE AND CONSIDERED IT STRANGE THAT BOTH WENT OUT AT THE SAME TIME. *JB

WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH THE CONSUMER WAS INVOLVED IN FRONTAL COLLISION. UPON IMPACT, THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE DRIVER SUSTAINED MAJOR NECK,BACK , AND HIP INJURIES. THE VEHICLE WAS TOTALED. *AK (SEE ALSO ODI REF. NO. 10106755 - SAME VEHICLE) *MJJ *TC

FRONT DOOR HINGES ON 2000 S-10 BLAZER HAVE ROTTED. DRIVER HINGE IN 2002, NOW PASSENGER HINGE (BOTH FRONT DOORS) IN JANUARY OF 05. DOOR HINGES BOTH NEEDED REPLACEMENT WHICH SEEMS EXTREMELY ODD ON FAIRLY NEW VEHICLE. RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET SHOWS THAT MANY PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AND PROBABLY JUST DON'T KNOW WHERE TO REPORT IT SIMULATANEOUSLY. IT'S FAILURE RESULTS IN THE INABILITY TO CLOSE THE DOORS, WHICH, DEPENDING ON WHEN THEY BREAK (I.E. WHEN CLOSING DOOR, HITTING A BUMP IN ROAD - WHICH COULD CAUSE CLOSED DOOR TO UNLATCH FROM POST, FLINGING DOOR OPEN WHILE DRIVING). I REALLY STRONGLY SUGGEST THIS BE LOOKED AT. IT APPEARS THAT THE WHEEL WELLS ALLOW ROAD SPRAY AND MOISTURE TO BE THROWN DIRECTLY INTO THE DOOR PANEL WELL WHERE THE HINGE IS LOCATED AND IS CAUSING THE ROT. LOOKS LIKE A MAJOR MANUFACTURING DEFECT TO NOT SEAL THE DOOR HINGE AREA FROM THE WHEEL SPRAY AND DEBRIS THROW-BACK ZONE.*AK

MY BLAZER NOW HAS 56,000 MILES ON IT. I HAVE DISCOVERED THAT IT IS IN NEED OF FRONT END REPAIR - SPECIFICALLY THE BALL JOINTS ARE BADLY WORN, THE BOOTS ON THE FROND AXLE HAVE A BAD CRACK ON THE RIGHT SIDE, AND THERE IS SIGNIFICANT IDLER WEAR. IN DOING RESEARCH, I HAVE DISCOVERED THAT NUMEROUS BLAZER OWNERS HAVE EXPERIENCED SIMILAR PROBLEMS. I FEEL THIS IS A DESIGN DEFECT. I HAVE ALSO HAD TWO OTHER ISSUES THAT I AM NOW DISCOVERING ARE COMMON PROBLEMS WITH A GREAT NUMBER OF BLAZERS. BOTH FRONT RECLINING SEAT HANDLES HAVE BROKEN OFF. I AM ALSO EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS WITH THE DOORS SEEMING TO NOT ALIGN PROPERLY - AS IF THE WELDS OR HINGES ARE FAILING. THESE HAVE ALSO BEEN MENTIONED REPEATEDLY IN YOUR COMPLAIN AREA FOR THIS MODEL. I HAVE NOT GOTTEN THESE ITEMS REPAIRED AS OF THIS DATE. THE BLAZER IS NOW PARKED UNTIL I CAN AFFORD TO GET IT FIXED. *NM

THE TRUCK SLID ON A PATCH OF ICE 100 YARDS AFTER MERGING ONTO THE INNER STATE. THIS RESULTED IN THE CONSUMER LOSING CONTROL OF THE TRUCK. THE TRUCK FRONT DRIVER SIDE IMPACTED A CONCRETE BRIDGE; THEN SWUNG AROUND;THE REAR DRIVER SIDE HIT THE BRIDGE; THIS THREW THE TRUCK INTO THE RIGHT HAND LANE, INTO THE GUARD RAIL , IMPACTING THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE; THEN THE TRUCK BOUNCED TO THE LEFT HAND LANE AND IMPACTED THE GUARD RAIL HEAD ON. NONE OF THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED UPON IMPACT. THE DRIVER SUSTAINED SEVERE INJURIES TO THEIR NECK, BACK, AND LEFT SHOULDER. *NM

I WAS DRIVING TO TEXAS OVER CHRISTMAS AND AFTER I STOPPED IN COLORADO AND GOT FUEL BY THE TIME I REACHED WICHITA KANSAS IS WHEN THE FUEL GAUGE STARTED TO STAY AT FULL WHEN I KNEW IT WAS ALMOST EMPTY. THE GAUGE BOUNCES AROUND WHEN IT IS IN PARK OR NEUTRAL. I TRAVEL A LOT AND IT MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT TO JUDGE JUST HOW FAR I CAN DRIVE BEFORE I HAVE TO REFUEL. NO REPAIRS HAVE BEEN MADE AS OF YET. *NM
