2000 Chevrolet Blazer LT review from North America
"Check the car's history"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
At 103000:
Oil cooler lines (130)
FR & FL axle seals (210)
Transmission drain (80)
Total cost: 320
At 104000:
Fuel pump (300)
Spark Plugs (30)
And one other thing I cannot remember.
Total Cost: 351 (when brought it in for these repairs, the mechanic said there was something wrong with the valve, and they are needing to keep it over night. Said it wouldn't cost me anything.. I sure hope so..)
There is also something weird about the AC; after running a while it doesn't blow out air, and I can still hear a fan is working..
Total spent on car and repairs: 6172
Total spent on repairs alone: 672 (In a month and a half!)
Not to mention 14 MPG!
General comments?
I bought my car about a month and a half ago, I searched for the best price on a used Blazer with the lowest miles. I found one going for 5,500 with 102900 on it. I thought I had found a good deal; it drove pretty good when I first drove it, and I knew there might be some things that would need to be done to the vehicle before I bought it, but I thought once things were fixed, then I wouldn't have to worry about it because I baby my vehicles.
So I traded in my lil old 97 Toyota Tercel (I miss it dearly!). I ended up paying with the trade in a total of 4,600. I loved the SUV feeling, I loved the way it drove, I loved the way it looked and how I looked driving it! But with love comes heart ache...
Maybe the worst investment in my history. It's like the smokiest hot dame that you ever saw and fell in love with, stole all your money and left you for some CEO of Chevy... #@$&*!
