2000 Chevrolet Blazer LT review from North America
"Chevy can do much better then this poorly designed SUV"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
At 60,000 miles my gas gauge stopped working. I found this out by running out of gas in the middle of no where. The reason being the Fuel pump has a bad sensor and needs to be replaced. $900 Later it works.
At 66,000 miles the turning signal relay always "ticks". The lights don't turn on outside, or in the dash, but it continuously ticks. Very annoying!
At 90,000 miles the transmission started to "slip". It's an automatic, but when you push the pedal in to pass or go up hill the engine speed rises and your speed goes down. Transmission rebuilt and 3000 miles later it's doing it again. I think I'm just going to take it in to trade it before I start loosing parts on the road while I'm driving.
General comments?
This truck has a lot of nice functions inside. Everything from heated seats to automatic dimming Mirrors. I love the way the truck drives on the road. I also love Chevrolet vehicles. My hats off to Chevrolet for discontinuing their poor model of a truck/SUV. I look forward to purchasing other models of Chevrolet in the future.
