MY TRUCK HAS NOT FAILED BUT SINCE I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE IT HAS ONCE IN A WHILE STARTED WITH WHAT SEEMS LIKE A STARTER DRAG, IT WILL NOT DO IT ALL THE TIME AND THERE IS NO SET TIME? I HAVE HAD IT BACK TO THE DEALER TWICE AND BOTH TIMES THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG. I HAVE TRIED IT AFTER LETTING THE VEHICLE FOR VARIOUS TIMES.....5 MINS.,ALL NIGHT ,ETC.

THIS VEHICLE HAS AN ON/OFF SWITCH. AFTER ACTIVATING THE SWITCH IT CAUSED AN PROBLEM WITH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, THE HORN WENT OUT. ALSO, CREATED PROBLEMS WITH THE COOLING SYSTEM. THE KILL SWITCH IS WORKING IMPROPERLY. DEALER HAS BEEN CONTACTED. *AK

THE GAS PEDAL ON THIS VEHICLE IS EXTREMELY LOW, CAUSING THE SHORTER DRIVERS TO HAVE TO PULL SEAT ALL THE WAY FORWARD. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE I AM DRIVING 5 INCHES FROM THE STEERING WHEEL. I HAVE NOTICED THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THE BLAZER AS MY MOTHER OWNS ONE AND WE HAVE RENTED SEVERAL OTHERS, AND ALL THE GAS PEDALS ARE ABOUT 4 INCHES LOWER THAN THE BRAKE PEDAL. THIS IS ALSO ANNOYING AND CAUSES ADDITIONAL SAFETY CONCERNS BECAUSE MY FOOT FREQUENTLY GETS CAUGHT ON THE BRAKE PEDAL WHEN I SHIFT MY FOOT OVER (BECAUSE THE BRAKE PEDAL IS MUCH HIGHER), CAUSING MY STOPPING TIMES TO BE LONGER THAN IS SAFE.

LOOSING TOO MUCH ENGINE OIL. ONE DAY, WHILE DRIVING TO WORKPLACE, NOTICED UNUSUAL NOISE IN THE ENGINE. UPON ARRIVAL AT DESTINATION, FOUND OUT THAT OIL LEVEL DID REGITER AT DIPSTICK.

ALSO, WHEN CONTROL IS IN PASSENGER FLOOR POSITION AND TEMP CONTROL IN BLUE OR COLD AIR AREA, HOT AIR STILL BLOWS. CANNOT GET OUTSIDE FRESH AIR IN INTERIOR WITHOUT GETTING HOT AIR. ONLY WAY TO COOL OFF CABIN IS TO RUN AIR CONDITIONING. SUSPECT THAT AIR BLOWER DUCT RELAY,ACTUATOR, OR VENT DOOR IS NOT BEING REGULATED PROPERLY TO CHANNEL THE AIR IN PROPER MANNER. TAKEN TO DEALER AND THEY ARE CHECKING.

THIS VEHICLE PULLS TO THE RIGHT AND WANDERS. IT HAS HAD A FRONTEND ALLIGNMENT 3 TIMES, TIRES ROTATED, THE GEARBOX HAS BEEN ADJUSTED AND REPLACED. THE DEALER WHICH IS WOKING ON IT (SEBERGER CHEVROLET IN CENTRALIA IL). THEY SAY THAT THEY HAVE 4 OR 5 LIKE THIS AND NO ONE KNOWS HOW TO CORRECT IT NOT EVEN CHEVROLET. WITHIN 3000 MILES THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP 4 TIMES. I KNOW LONGER FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE AND KNOW NO ONE WILL DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. CHEVROLET KEEPS GIVING THE DEALER THE RUNAROUND KEEPING ME WAITING WITH A VEHICLE THAT, TO ME IS UNSAFE.

STEERING PULL TO THE RIGHT. GOT IT REPAIR BUT I THINK IT'LL HAPPEN AGAIN. 3RD DOOR HANDLE BROKE OFF.. LOOK LIKE THEY WERE MADE VERY CHEAP AND I THINK IT 'LL BROKE AGIAN. THEY SHOULD USE METAL TO MAKE DOOR HANDLES.
