Blazer seeping oil from oil pan, will not fix only if I pay 75% due to 90 day warranty, and told if they would fix it I would only create more problems, it was also told by dealer and Chevy that it is normal for year and mileage, I don't think so with 47,000 miles, when I owned a 97 Chevy with 97,000 miles, no leaks but salesman knew of it 3 weeks after purchase when 30 day bumper to bumper existed, was at dealership July 6, 2006 for all items but Chevy nor dealership documented it or the grease fittings, lube, check fluid levels like was suppose to do, salesman checked fluids for me after they neglected to do their job.. so Chevy says can't go by salesman because he no longer works there, seeping oil from oil pan is not normal, I didn't receive a odometer paper on it or my trade in.. I feel they are doing me wrong and Chevy is backing them up, I even gave salesman number and told them I have a note pad here of all that was to be done with pages after on note pad written on after that day and they won't listen. They never gave me correct mileage on it when I purchased the vehicle.

Never took in for rear wiper. Started leaking oil, so took to dealer here in roosevelt 21, Dec. Started to provo Jan. 10, cruise control went off, speedometer would not work, this caused the car to not shift. Pulled off road as car stops, turned car back on, turned around to return home.
