1995 Chevrolet Blazer review from North America
"Good when it runs, too expensive to keep when it doesn't"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Bad O2 sensor X 2, bad gas tank pump, bad transmission, faulty transmission seals, bad CV joints on front end, loses wheel alignment easily, lost 4-wheel drive capability, A/C motor died, bad alternator, battery drain, bad body joint welds.
General comments?
I would advise against anyone getting this model of Blazer or any other GM car. This is the most troublesome and most expensive car that I've ever owned. This car has put me in so much debt that it's not even funny.
If you have the money and the time to put into a Blazer, then this truck is for you. I've just recently donated my to charity due to the transmission needing repair.
After twelve years of headaches, I am done. Good riddance!
My new car is Japanese and will be from now on, until GM can show that they can make a car that's worth a damn anymore.
