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 wheel bearings on my 2002 2-door Chevy Blazer went at just under 54,000 miles. Both front wheel bearings had to be replaced. It was suggested that I report this because this should not happen to a vehicle with so little mileage.
Front wheel bearing failure after only 48,000 miles of normal use. Replaced bearings myself to the cost of $300. I have saved the old parts. I'll never buy another GM vehicle again!
The contact stated the front passenger wheel bearing malfunctioned, causing the steering to lock. The vehicle was towed to the dealership, who replaced the wheel bearing at contact's expense. The contact recently found that driver's side wheel bearing needed to be replaced.
