#709193July 26, 1999
FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY
MY BLAZER HAS STALLED REPEATEDLY DURING THE SIX MONTHS I HAVE OWNED IT. THERE APPEAR TO BE NO COMMONALITIES BETWEEN THE INCIDENTS. SOMETIMES IT'S IN AN INTERSECTION. AT OTHER TIMES I'M DRIVING. AT OTHER TIMES I AM SITTING IN PARK. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD, AND MY DEALERSHIP HAS STILL NOT ISOLATED THE PROBLEM, ALTHOUGH IT HAS ALREADY BEEN IN AT LEAST FOUR TIMES FOR THIS. THEY DID REPLACE A FUEL PUMP THE LAST TIME, BUT THAT APPARENTLY WASN'T THE PROBLEM.

CHILD SEAT
I HAVE AN ISSUE WITH MY NEW BLAZER, IN THAT THE OWNER'S MANUAL SAYS THAT YOU CANNOT PLACE A CHILD SAFETY SEAT IN THE CENTER BACK POSITION. HAD I KNOWN, I WOULD'VE NEVER BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE. I HAVE TRIED TO FIND OUT WHAT THE ISSUE IS AND HAVE RECEIVED NUMEROUS DIFFERENT ANSWERS FROM CHEVY'S CUSTOMER SERVICE, THE MOST OBNOXIOUS BEING THAT THE CENTER SEAT BELT ISN'T THAT STRONG SO THEY DON'T WANT KIDS TO USE IT. ADULTS CAN USE IT THOUGH BECAUSE THEY CAN BRACE THEMSELVES IF IT BREAKS. I'D LIKE TO KNOW WHY I CAN'T KEEP THE CHILD SEAT IN THE CENTER, WHY CHEVY WOULD PRODUCE A CAR THAT DOESN'T ALLOW A CHILD SAFETY SEAT TO GO IN THE SAFEST POSITION, AND WHO I CAN REPORT THEIR HORRENDOUS CUSTOMER SERVICE FOLKS TO. WOULD APPRECIATE A RESPONSE. THANKS. *AK
