Defect. CERTAIN POLI-AUTO COMBINATION HEADLAMP ASSEMBLIES, P/NOS. 11-728, 11-728D, 11-710, 11-419, 11-713, 11-703, 11-704, 11-708P, 11-735, 11-725, 11-726, 11-716 (P&C), 11-721-1, 11-733, 11-729, 11-730, AND 11-732, SOLD AS REPLACEMENT LAMPS FOR USE ON CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES. SOME COMBINATION LAMPS THAT ARE NOT EQUIPPED WITH AMBER SIDE REFLECTORS FAIL TO CONFORM TO FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 108, "LAMPS, REFLECTIVE DEVICES, AND ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT."

Risk. WITHOUT THE AMBER REFLECTORS, THE VEHICLE WILL BE POORLY ILLUMINATED, POSSIBLY RESULTING IN A VEHICLE CRASH WITHOUT WARNING.

Remedy. POLI-AUTO WILL NOTIFY OWNERS AND OFFER TO REPURCHASE THE HEADLAMPS AT ITS ORIGINAL PURCHASE PRICE. THE RECALL IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN DURING APRIL 2006. OWNERS MAY CONTACT POLI-AUTO AT 305-477-1356.

Defect. ON CERTAIN SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES, VIBRATION AND HEAT MAY CAUSE THE TAIL LAMP/STOP LAMP BULB TO LOOSEN IN ITS SOCKET. IF THIS OCCURS, THE BULB MAY FLICKER AND EVENTUALLY BECOME INOPERATIVE.

Risk. AN INOPERATIVE BRAKE LAMP WILL NOT CONVEY THE DRIVER'S INTENTION OF STOPPING TO DRIVERS IN FOLLOWING VEHICLES, AND AN INOPERATIVE REAR TURN SIGNAL LAMP WILL NOT CONVEY THE DRIVER'S INTENTION TO TURN TO DRIVERS IN FOLLOWING VEHICLES. BOTH OF THESE FAILURES CAN INCREASE THE RISK OF A CRASH.

Remedy. DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE TAIL LAMP/STOP LAMP ASSEMBLIES, AND IF NECESSARY, REPLACE THEM. THE RECALL BEGAN ON NOVEMBER 22, 2004. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT CHEVROLET AT 1-800-630-2438, OLDSMOBILE AT 1-800-630-6537, BUICK AT 1-866-608-8080, OR GMC AT 1-866-996-9463.

Defect. CERTAIN LIGHT DUTY PICKUP TRUCKS AND SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES FAIL TO CONFORM TO FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 209, "SEAT BELT ASSEMBLIES." ONE OF THE TWO SENSORS IN THE DRIVER'S AND FRONT PASSENGER'S SEAT BELT RETRACTORS COULD BE INOPERATIVE. THE SEAT BELT RETRACTORS WILL LOCK WHEN THE BELT WEBBING IS EXTRACTED DURING A CRASH; HOWEVER, THE MECHANISM THAT LOCKS THE SEAT BELT RETRACTOR WHEN THE VEHICLE DECELERATES QUICKLY, SUCH AS HEAVY BRAKING, MAY NOT OPERATE AS INTENDED.

Risk. IF THIS WERE TO OCCUR, THE SAFETY BELT MAY NOT RESTRAIN THE OCCUPANT AS INTENDED DURING A CRASH, AND COULD RESULT IN INJURY TO THE OCCUPANT.

Remedy. DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE DRIVER AND FRONT PASSENGER SAFETY BELT RETRACTORS, AND REPLACE THEM IF NECESSARY. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN ON JUNE 24, 2004. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT CHEVROLET AT 1-800-630-2438, GMC AT 1-866-996-9463, OR OLDSMOBILE AT 1-800-630-6537.

Defect. CERTAIN SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES HAVE WINDSHIELD WIPER SYSTEMS THAT WILL NOT TURN ON, CEASE OPERATION WHILE IN USE, FAIL TO TURN OFF/ON BY THEMSELVES (MOISTURE SENSITIVE WIPER SYSTEM), OR HAVE CONTINUOUS WINDSHIELD WASHER PUMP OPERATION BECAUSE THE PRESENCE OF WATER WITHIN THE WIPER MODULES CAN EITHER CAUSE A SHORT CIRCUIT OR CAN LEAD TO THE CORROSION OF COMPONENTS WITHIN THE MODULE.

Risk. DEPENDING ON THE OCCURRENCE AND WEATHER SITUATION, DRIVER VISIBILITY COULD BE REDUCED, WHICH COULD RESULT IN A CRASH.

Remedy. DEALERS WILL COVER THE WINDSHIELD WIPER MODULE VENT HOLE WITH A PATCH. ALSO, THE WIPER MOTOR, CIRCUIT BOARD, AND ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR WILL BE INSPECTED TO SIGNS OF WATER INTRUSION AND/OR CORROSION AND BE REPLACED AS REQUIRED. THE RECALL BEGAN JULY 6, 2004.

I was driving on the highway going 65mph which is the legal speed limit. I got cut off by a driver and light tapped my brakes to slow the vehicle down. When I did so the vehicle then swerved to the left and started drifting sideways directly to a wall. I went head on with the wall. Then I bounced back across all lanes of traffic again still sideways and drifting hitting another wall. Which is where the vehicle ended at the stopping point of the accident. No airbags deployed in the accident. The driver behind me who witness the crash stated that the vehicle started to loose traction before I hit my brakes and me hitting my brakes caused the vehicle to them loose full control. I was in the process of buying this vehicle from Gresham Ford in Oregon. I was told the vehicle was 100% road safe and passed safety inspections. Which is false.

The car rmp goes high when accelerating it's a common problem with the cooling fan which the company is aware of it but aren't held reliable!

B LAZER HESITATES WHEN DRIVING AND NOTICE A GAS SMELL WHEN I TURN ON BLAZER AT THE BEGINNING AND I NOTICED A LEAK INSIDE BUT WAS NOT SURE WHERE ITS COMING FROM. I CONTACTED CHEVORLET DEALER ON POSSIBLE RECALL THEY STATED ITS NOT ON THERE SYSTEM AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR DIAGNOSE AND BECAUSE OF THE MILEAGE MAYBE THEY MAY NOT BE ABLE TO FIX THIS. WHY WOULD I HAVE TO PAY FOR DIAGNOSE IF ITS SOMETHING ON THEIR END AND ITS ONLINE AS A RECALL ON BLAZERS.

I HAVE AN INTERMITTENT INSTRUMENT GAGE FAILURE, THIS CAUSES THE GAGE CLUSTER TO GO OUT AND UNABLE TO READ VITAL ENGINE OPERATING SPECIFICATIONS. THIS INCLUDES ALL GAUGES EXCEPT FOR SPEEDOMETER FOR NOW. THIS TYPICAL CLEARS UP WITHIN 5 MINS AND SOONER IF YOU PULL CAR OVER AND RESTART VEHICLE. THIS CAN HAPPEN AT ANYTIME AND INCLUDES THE LIGHTING UP OF THE FOLLOWING LIGHTS ABS,BRAKE,SECURITY,SEATBELT,SRS AND ALL THE OTHER DASHBOARD LIGHTS. THIS HAPPENS AT DIFFERENT DATES AND TIMES.

I PULLED INTO MY GARAGE AND SHUT MY TRUCK OFF BUT MY DOORS WOULDN'T UNLOCK. THEN IT STARTED MAKING FUNNY TICKING SOUNDS AND ALL MY LIGHTS INSIDE STARTED FLICKING AND MY WINDOWS ALL ROLLED UP AND WOULDN'T GO BACK DOWN SO I COULD GET OUT. AFTER ABOUT 20 MINUTES OR SO I TURNED IT BACK ON AND WAS FINALLY ABLE TO GET MY DOOR UNLOCKED TO GET OUT. NOW WHEN I TOUCH ANYTHING MY OTHER WINDOWS GO UP AND MY SEAT STARTS TO MOVE ON ITS OWN. MY DRIVER'S WINDOW IS STUCK UP AND WON'T COME BACK DOWN. I HAVE 5 KIDS AND CAN NOT CHANCE SOMETHING HAPPENING AND US NOT BEING ABLE TO GET OUT SAFELY.
