1995 Chevrolet Blazer LS 2WD review from North America
"Have a good nest egg (Blazer Repair Fund)"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced the transmission at 53000 miles, and of course did not have the extended warranty. Cost over 2,000.00.
Replaced the alternator at 80000 miles.
Fuel injectors started misfiring just before I got rid of it, not my problem any more.
Back hatch released while travelling down the highway at about 60mph, now it leaks.
Also had problem with the anti-lock brakes which the dealer could not detect.
General comments?
When the Blazer ran it was quick on the start, and had a quiet, smooth ride. Cruised at over 90mph like a dream.
