SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP, PARKING BRAKE:CONVENTIONAL, EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS, VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD WIPER/WASHER
LIGHTING-HEADLIGHTS - WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, MY HEADLIGHTS (BOTH LOW AND HIGHBEAM) WILL GO OFF ALTOGETHER A FEW SECONDS AFTER I SWITCH TO MY HIGHBEAMS. AFTER EMERGENCY STOPPING DUE TO LACK OF VISION, IT COMES BACK ON AFTER SITTING A FEW MOMENTS ONLY TO HAPPEN AGAIN AND AGAIN. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS DEFECT THAT ALMOST CAUSED A HEAD ON COLLISION AND MY FAMILY TO LOOSE OUR LIVES. 2) PARKING BRAKE - WHILE PARKED IN 4 WHEEL DRIVE, MOTOR OFF, ON A CLOSE TO FLAT SURFACE, MY BLAZER'S EMERGENCY BRAKE DISENGAGES AND MY VEHICLE HAS TO BE MOVED BACK INTO ITS PAKING PLACE. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:BATTERY - BATTERY GOES DEAD IF I LEAVE MY DOOR OPEN FOR 10 MINUTES TO SWEEP OUT THE INSIDE. EVEN AFTER FACTORY BATTERY WAS REPLACED FOR THE SAME REASON. EXHAUSTE SYSTEM: CVS VALVE REPLACED SOON AFTER DRIVING OFF THE SHOWROOM FLOOR AT DEALERSHIP. BRAKE:HYDROLIC ANTI-LOCK BRAKE ASSEMBLY: UNABLE TO STOP VEHICLE WHILE IN 4 WHEEL DRIVE CAUSING A CRASH INTO GUARDRAIL IN ORDER TO GET STOPPED. BRAKES ALSO FAIL WHEN TRYING TO COME TO A STOP AND RUNNING OVER A BUMP IN THE ROAD...CAUSES BRAKES TO MAKE A CLICKING NOISE AND LOOSE BRAKING HOLD...HAVE TO REAPPLY FOR VEHICLES BRAKES TO WORK.

#726105July 27, 2000
ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE:GASOLINE
THIS IS A COMPLAINT RELATING TO PROBABLE DESIGN DEFICIENCY AS OPPOSED TO A COMPONENT FAILURE. WHEN THE FUEL GAUGE IS IN THE RED ZONE, THE ENGINE WILL STALL WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STOPPING, TURNING OR ATTEMPTING TO GO UPHILL. THIS CAUSES SUDDEN AND UNEXPECTED LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL AND BRAKING POWER. NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THE FUEL PUMP OR TANK, OTHER THAN THE FUEL IS PERMITTED BY THE POOR DESIGN OF THE TANK TO FLOW AWAY FROM THE INTAKE TUBE WHEN THE VEHICLE IS SLOWING OR TURNING OR ORIENTED SUCH THAT THE FUEL IS CONCENTRATED IN THE FORWARD PART OF THE TANK. THE ENGINE WILL RESTART WHEN THE VEHICLE COMES TO REST AND IS ON A LEVEL OR DOWNHILL GRADE. OF COURSE, KEEPING THE TANK LESS EMPTY OBVIATES THE PROBLEM, BUT THERE SHOULD BE NO REASON NOT TO OPERATE THE VEHICLE WHEN THE GAUGE STILL REGISTERS THE PRESENCE OF FUEL. *AK
