"I will never purchase another Chevy Product"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Rear Windshield Wipers don't work.

Ball Bearings went out.

Goes back and forth from 2wd to 4wd by itself.

Odometer and Gear Gages on dash don't light up anymore (once in awhile when I hit a bump just right).

Seat adjusters broken off both front seats.

CD holder on roof broken, button fell off.

Transmission Slipping.

Previously had Transmission lines replaced because they were leaking.

Customer Service (Non-Existent).

General comments?

I used to think that Chevy Products were the best in the world, but recently I've had nothing, but problems with my Blazer.

I've gotten no reply back from Chevrolet on any questions that I've submitted through their website.

I've been on a few websites regarding problems with Blazers, and it seems that many people are having the same problems that I'm having.

You are soooo correct about NOT getting any help from the Chevy Help/Service line. They have no pride or integrity. They gave me - a sorta satisfied Chevy owner times 3 - the run a round. They kept saying the dealer is the best place to solve problems blah blah. They DID NOT offer any recall info, or any special deals. They are trained to just loop everything back around to "see the dealer" or just bore you so you will go pay to fix their production problem. (Chevy should be shamed to make them fix common problems & failures like windshield wipers, ball-joints, oil lines, etc. Hey Chevy - do you even care?)

I'm not buying another GM truck. Bought my 98 blazer new. Bearings replaced at 10,000. Alternator at 15,000. The first transmission at 30,000. At 45,000 the 4wd vacuum under the battery. 60,000 power window regulator left my window down on a long trip. 65,000 power window regulator rattling (bad pop rivets). Rear passenger door hinge is bad (I'm sick of fixing things). Plastic accents all over the interior rub together and make noise all the time. Now 130,000 they put a new trans in. I've been back 5 times and its not fixed. All repairs done at the dealer.
