TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 CHEVROLET S/T BLAZER EQUIPPED WITH GOODYEAR WRANGLER 105S TIRES, SIZE: P235/75R15. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS BEING WASHED, THE CONTACT NOTICED A LOT OF CRACKS ON THE SIDEWALLS OF ALL FOUR TIRES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 141,000 AND THE TIRE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 10,000.
BRAKE FAILURE DUE TO CORROSION OF BRAKE LINES. HAD TO REPLACE CALIPERS DUE TO PISTON FREEZING FROM CORROSION, AS WELL AS REPLACING ALL BRAKE LINES AFTER BRAKE PETAL TRAVELING ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WHEN APPLIED. LINE WAS LEAKING ABOVE DRIVERS SIDE REAR WHEEL. WORK COMPLETED AT CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP. *TR
FUEL PUMP FOR 1999 CHEVY S-BLAZER 4 DR. MODEL. PUMP HAS BEEN REPLACED 4 TIMES WITHIN 8 MOS. FIRST LASTED 7 MOS. SECOND LASTED 4 DAYS, THIRD LASTED 2 WEEKS, SO FAR. WIRING HARNESS HAS BEEN REPLACED AS RECOMMENDED. UPON REPLACEMENT OF THIRD PUMP A NEW RELAY WAS INSTALLED AT THE RECOMMENDATION OF AUTO PARTS STORE. SECOND PUMP REPLACEMENT PRODUCED A TROUBLE CODE (CHECK ENGINE LIGHT) FOR EVAPORATIVE EMISSIONS, WHICH WENT AWAY WITH THE INSTALLATION OF THIRD PUMP. PARTS RETAILER IS STARTING TO GET HESITANT ABOUT REPLACING THIS PART, BUT HAS BEEN AS HELPFUL AS POSSIBLE. I THINK THEY ARE MORE EMBARRASSED ABOUT THIS THAN ANYTHING. PUMP WILL LOSE THE NECESSARY AMOUNT OF PRESSURE THAT THIS APPLICATION REQUIRES. COLD STARTS ARE FINE, BUT ONCE RUNNING AT NORMAL OPERATING TEMP. THE PUMP WILL NOT DELIVER ADEQUATE PRESSURE UNTIL ENGINE WILL EVENTUALLY STALL AND WILL NOT RESTART UNTIL TOTALLY COOLED. ORIGINAL PUMP QUIT ALTOGETHER AT 97,000 MILES, VEHICLE NOW HAS 104,000 MILES AND EACH REPLACEMENT PUMP HAS HAD SAME SYMPTOMS. *TR
THE MULTI-FUNCTION TURN SIGNAL SWITCH IS DEFECTIVE AND CAUSES AN AUDIBLE CLICKING NOISE FROM THE DASH. THIS ALSO RESULTS IN THE EXTERIOR TURN SIGNAL LAMPS TO INTERMITTENTLY NOT FUNCTION, DEPENDING ON TEMPERATURE. THE ISSUE IS MORE PREVALENT IN COOLER, COLDER WEATHER. *JB
5 of 5 complaints, reproduced as filed.
No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
