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 contact owns a 2000 Chevrolet Blazer. The vehicle was parked with the engine activated when the contact noticed that the rear tailgate window exploded. The dealer did not offer any assistance and the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. No repairs were performed. The current and the failure mileages were 169,000.
Occasionally the front wipers on my 2000 Chevy Blazer would stop working for no reason at all and eventually after a few minutes would kick back on, but as of yesterday Dec 21 2008 they will not come back on. I was informed that this is probably due to a bad wiper circuit board. This same problem occurred and had a recall for a 1997 Chevy S10 pickup. And guess what"?" they use the same part number. However Chevy will not replace the wiper circuit board on my vehicle because there was never a recall on my specific vehicle model/year. If it is the same part and I am having the same problem this should be replaced by the manufacturer. Now out of pocket I am looking at $150 or a little more depending on what parts store I can find this circuit board at. I called several dealerships and the Chevy 1-800#. to me this is unacceptable, if it is the same part number that had a problem in a previous vehicle then it should be covered under the recall notice.
The bar attached behind windows obstructs driver's view. Its a blind spot & can not see other vehicles on right hand side. Also, front of the hood is tapered down. Taking vehicle back to dealer to check.
