1999 Chevrolet Blazer S-10 review from North America
"Uhhhh!!! I loved it at first - but never again!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
All front upper and lower ball joints - 40 000 miles.
Universal joint.
Alignments - too many to mention.
Seat tilt arm, both sides broke off at 20,000 miles.
Defective brakes installed - squeaking sound continuously.
Heater core replaced twice within 30,000 miles apart.
Coolant gasket.
Latch on the rear tire needed to be replaced shortly after I bought it.
I have run out of room to list more!!! WOW That's NOT A GOOD SIGN!!!
General comments?
I loved my Chevy Blazer when I first had it until soooo many things went wrong - serpentine belt twice.
Coolant leaks -- too many to mention.
Heater core blew TWICE within 30,000 miles of each other.
Seat latches both broke off. Strangely enough, the passenger side first, which I NEVER USED!
When I picked up my car on delivery day... It seemed to have been put together quickly -- with the insulation hanging onto glue all over the back side compartment... there was no grease at all in the grease fittings on the front or back wheels... one month later... I needed to replace them... hummmm.
So much has gone wrong with this car, it is a shame -- it was a gift from my now deceased father... (a longtime loyal GM retiree) and I just today came home from the dealership - replacing the front wheel bearing AGAIN for the second time.!!
I GIVE up on GM!!!
