2000 Chevrolet Blazer review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Front brakes locking, turned out to be a passenger side wheel bearing needed to be replaced.
No heat, water pump went and a vacuum connector under the dash.
Back brakes replaced when I bought the Blazer in August 2003, they were replaced again plus the calipers the following August because they were seizing.
The fuel gauge did not work when I got the blazer I called the dealer where I bought it from and he told me to just keep it full. thanks.
The door bushing on the driver side has dropped through.
The drive pulley had to be replaced.
The power steering pump had to be replaced.
The driver side wheel bearing decided to go two months ago.
The u-joint needed to be replaced.
The differential seal needed to be replaced.
The driver side handle on the seat came off in my hand.
And now the clunking in the front is the lower ball joints.
General comments?
This vehicle has cost me a fortune, I was looking for a reliable vehicle and ended up with this nightmare.
