EGR HAS BEEN REPLACED TWICE SINCE 1999 WHEN I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE. I JUST HAD THE EGR VALVE REPLACED YESTERDAY AND TODAY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS BACK ON AND THE NASTY SMELL OF EXHAUST/FUEL IS BACK IN MY VEHICLE. I ALSO HAD THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER. REPLACED TWO WEEKS AGO. VEHICLE RUNS ROUGH AND STALLS WITHOUT NOTICE. SAFETY HAZARD! I HAVE TWO SMALL BABY'S AND FEAR FOR THEIR SAFETY BECAUSE OF BREATHING IN EXHAUST/FUEL AND VEHICLE STALLING WHENEVER. MDH IN VIRGINIA. *NLM

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
THE OIL COOLER LINE (4.3W) ON MY CHEVY S10 BLAZER CAME OUT OF THE CRIMP AND CAUSED CONSIDERABLE DAMAGE TO MY ENGINE. THE DEALER WHO SOLD AND DOES WORK ON THIS VEHICLE SAYS IT IS NOT THEIR FAULT AND THE REPAIR PRICE TAG IS QUITE A LARGE SUM! I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY AND HOW CAN CHEVY LET A "DEFECT" OF THIS MAGNITUDE GO UNNOTICED! I DO NOT FEEL IT IS MY RESPONSIBILITY TO PAY FOR THIS REPAIR!*JB

#10005850February 14, 2003
POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS WHEN WE WERE COMING TO A STOP AT A LIGHT ---- AS WE PRESSED ON THE BRAKE PEDAL THE ENGINE REVVED UP TO APPROXIMATELY 2500 RPM. THIS MADE STOPPING THE VEHICLE A LOT MORE DIFFICULT & COULD FEEL THE ANTI-LOCK BREAKS WORKING TO STOP THE CAR. LUCKILY, THERE WAS NEVER A VEHICLE IN FRONT OF US IN EACH OF THE INSTANCES ---- BUT WE'RE NOT SURE IF THIS COULD EVENTUALLY LEAD TO A FUTURE ACCIDENT. MY CONFIDENCE WITH THE DEALERSHIPS IS NOT VERY HIGH IN DIAGNOSING THIS PROBLEM IF THEY CAN'T RE-CREATE IT OR IF IT DIDN'T SENT A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CODE. THEY WOULD JUST CHARGE ME FOR THEIR DIAGNOSTIC EFFORTS. NOTE: I ALSO RECENTLY HAS HIGH REVVING PROBLEMS WITH THIS VEHICLE WITHIN THE LAST FEW MONTHS, BUT THEY WERE AT START-UP & IT SENT A TROUBLE CODE. AFTER THREE TRIPS TO THE DEALERSHIP WITH A IAC VALVE AND PCM REPLACEMENT BILL --- THEY ALLEVIATED THE PROBLEM. THIS SEEMS TO BE SOMETHING ELSE & MUCH MORE DANGEROUS. *NLM

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:COOLING SYSTEM, FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:FUEL PUMP, POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM:EMISSION CONTROL:GAS RECIRCULATION VALVE (EGR VALVE)
4 EGR VALVES (AND I HAVE GOT TO PUT THE 5TH ONE ON NOW) IN THE LAST 3 YEARS $200.00 EACH. 2 CMFI UNITS BECAUSE OF THE FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR LEAKING THE WHOLE UNIT HAS TO BE REPLACED $500.00 EACH. FUEL PUMPS $80.00 EACH TRANSMISSION HAS SLIPPED AT DIFFERENT TIMES. COOLING IS A PROBLEM IT HAS NEVER OVERHEATED BUT IT WOULD LIKE TO IN THE SUMMER. I AM A MECHANIC AND ALL OF MY CARS ARE TAKEN CARE OF TO THE SLIGHTEST DETAIL BUT IT IS NOT NORMAL TO REPLACE THIS STUFF MORE THAN A COUPLE OF TIMES IN THE LIFE OF A CAR MUCH LESS A COUPLE OF TIMES A YEAR. *JB

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:COOLING SYSTEM:HOSES/LINES/PIPING/FITTINGS
WE PURCHASED A 95 CHEVY BLAZER FROM A DEALER USED AT THE END OF OCTOBER 2002. LESS THAN 60 DAYS LATER, THE OIL COOLER LINE FELL APART AND ALL OIL DRAINED FROM THE ENGINE IN 30-60 SECONDS, CAUSING COMPLETE ENGINE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE SEIZED UP IN TRAFIC IN A DANGEROUS AREA AND THERE WAS NOT TIME TO DRIVE TO A SAFE AREA TO INSPECT THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO TOLD US THAT THIS WAS A FACTORY DEFECT AND SUGGESTED THAT WE CONTACT THE DEALER AS THE ENGINE MUST BE REPLACED. THE DEALER CONTACTED CHEVROLET WHO HAS DECLINED ALL RESPONSIBILITY AND KNOWLEDGE OF THIS PROBLEM, YET THERE ARE NUMEROUS CONSUMER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE OIL HOSE. DESPITE THE FACT THAT THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED LESS THAN 60 DAYS BEFORE, WE NOW ARE FACING A REPAIR BILL THAT IS HALF THE COST OF THE VEHICLE AND THE DEALER'S RESPONSE WAS "TOO BAD."
