#767150September 13, 2002
POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WHEN I HEARD A LOUD POP. FOUND OUT THE TRANSMISSION HAD GONE FOR REVERSE, SECOND AND THIRD GEARS. THE CLUTCHES (AUTOMATIC) HAD BEEN REPLACED IN OCTOBER 2001 AND NOW THEY HAD BLOWN. MECHANIC SAID THIS WAS A COMMON ISSUE AMONG NEW BLAZERS. GM AT FIRST INDICATED THEY WOULD CONSIDER HELPING OUT IF THE DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AND THEN CHANGED STORIES TO SAY THAT THEY WOULDN'T DO ANYTHING UNTIL THE DEALERSHIP FIXED THE PROBLEM AND THEN THEY WOULD CONSIDER IT; HOWEVER, IT WASN'T LIKELY. IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THE TRANSMISSION SHOULDN'T HAVE TWO IDENTICAL MAJOR ISSUES WITHIN 15,000 MILES OF EACH OTHER. UNFORTUNATELY, THE FIRST REPAIR WAS ONLY UNDER WARRANTY FOR 12 MONTHS/12,000 MILES. GM NEEDS TO STEP UP TO THE PLATE.
