1999 Chevrolet Blazer LS review from North America
"Never again!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
In the summer of 2002, the transmission had to be repaired. A sun-shield had broken. The cost of the repair was $2,200. The seals around the doors seem old already, causing much wind noise at higher speeds. I've noticed water drops on the driver's side door next to the window controls from time to time. This could explain why not long after I had purchased the blazer the window controls on that side started to fail. At that time the car was under warranty so it was repaired without cost to me. The brakes squeak. I was told by the dealership that this was normal.
General comments?
This was the first nice car I ever owned. I am very disappointed.
I never would have imaged having to face a repair that large on a newer vehicle. I am now seriously considering getting rid of the car. I'm concerned it will only have more problems.
