Four problems related to equipment have been reported for the 2000 Chevrolet Blazer. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
I have replaced the hub assembly, idler arm, & wheel bearings on both driver & passenger side of my vehicle. When I drive over 45 mph my car makes an awful sound & no matter what I change or have fixed the parking brake/abs lights stay on. Ive had many mechanics look at & say they've fixed the issue but none have actually fixed it. I was driving 70mph on the highway & my brakes felt as if they were locking up.
Driver may have swerved to avoid an animal (deer) on dark country road. Vehicle rolled over ejecting the driver. Death was instant. The drivers door came off hinges and locks. See photos. Airbag did not deploy. No other vehicle involved.
Driver lost control of the vehicle striking another and died on 12/29/14. Driver was 23 years old. The airbags failed to deploy as in ignition defect switch cases which may be the case with this vehicle and should be investigated. The seatbelt was also defective and inoperable, thus not worn at the time of death.
1. Secundairy airpump 2. Multifunction switch (initial recall never rec'd, only reimbursed for $218).
