1997 Chevrolet Blazer LS review from North America
"Good, solid SUV and was sorry to see it go"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
A set of O2 sensors needed replacement at 60k miles.
4WD electronic cable needed replacing when battery case split and spilled acid on the cable.
General comments?
Bought car off-lease and it ran great with no problems until O2 sensors died. Then ran fine until traded in for minivan. Slow off the start, but picked up after that. Handled like an SUV, so you drive it like an SUV. Great in the snow and towed my F150 home when it broke down in the snow.
No complaints except the sensors shouldn't have died.
