1999 Chevrolet Blazer LS review from North America
"Junk!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
WHERE do I get replacement front hub bearings?? I read in several postings that they bought bearings and replaced the two sealed ones themselves...
BUT I cannot find any... HiLo and Autozone says not available... the 4 wheel version is, but they don't fit on the 2WD model..
Gawd I hate my Blazer... Hub bearings, seat recliner handles, washer motor, the AC clutch (rattles like crazy when engaged... if it was the other way around, I wouldn't mind!), now I hear a slight whine when accelerating in 2nd gear, and the heater has quit putting HOT air out (kinda lukewarm... I had the cooling system flushed a while back to get rid of the gurgling noise)...
General comments?
See above...
