This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The right rear and both front brake flex lines failed on two separate occasions. The consumer reported the problem to the Chevrolet headquarters and was told there was no recall or warranty for the failure.
Acceleration pedal hard to push, acts like it sticks. The dealership cleaned the throttle body, they said that there was carbon build up which caused the sticking. This is the second time I had this cleaned. When I asked the dealer, he said this was very common with the 4.3 V6 engines. Dealer recommended adding fuel injector cleaner to stop the build up of carbon. I had been doing that. Seems like it lessened the build up but did not prevent it. I suppose this is going to be normal maintenance, similar to an oil change. I have had other Blazer and have never had this problem, it would be nice if the manufacturer could resolve the problem.
Acceleration pedal hard to push acts like it sticks. Throttle body was carbonated up. Dealership cleaned throttle body and sticking stopped. The sticking usually occurred at start up but it also happened if you removed your foot from the gas pedal during driving to slow down and then reapplied your foot to accelerate. I put up with this for about two months before I had it serviced.
