Driver lost control of the vehicle striking another and died on 12/29/14. driver was 23 years old. the airbags failed to deploy as in ignition defect switch cases which may be the case with this vehicle and should be investigated. the seatbelt was also defective and inoperable, thus not worn at the time of death.

Driver's side seat belt will not stay latched while driving. the light for seat belt appeared on the dashboard and remained on. consumer drove the vehicle to the dealer for inspection, and mechanic informed the driver that the part was not available due to a back order. *ak

I purchased my chevrolet blazer new at the end of 1999 and it has been in the shop so much i know all 15 of the mechanics by there first name. the battery has been replaced at least 3 times, the alternator has been changed 3 times, the automatic transmission has been replaces, the seat handles have been replaced more than once, the seat belts have been replaced from locking up, the front end has had work done to it and still is not fixed, the rear right speaker does not work, the fuel gauge has been replaced, the gas petal sticks i haft to clean the card at least every month, the heater core has been replaced 3 times and it still does not get hot. i was told that this was caused by the orange antifreeze and was told that chey would not warranty their 5 year antifreeze and the dealer told me that i needed a $500.00 engine flush that i could do my shelf for $10.00 but i was then told that the engine was corroded up inside and i would need a new motor and they would not pay for it even under warranty. i called gm complaint line and was told that they new of the problem and they could not offer me any help. the complaint line was a joke and a waste of my time. i will never buy another chevy this is my second vehicle. my first was a s10 and i had the same problems. *ak

Automatic transmission failure made it impossible for vehicle to go into the reverse gear. also, consumer was unable to buckle the rear seat belt because the plate got stuck in the holster, and the holster was stuck in the seat. dealership was notified of both failures, but was unable to resolve the problems. *ak

Head on collision with solid cement bridge at 40+ mph. air bags did not deploy, seat belts did not lock in place on impact nor during roll over on my 2000 chevy blazer. *jb

Seat belt retractor does not work. *la

My wife was driving down a one way and a lady blew through a stop sign out in front of my wife. my wife hit here in the middle of the ladies car at 35mph. my wife was not wearing a seat belt at the time due to the fact it had stopped working the night before. she was on her way to the dealer ship at the time of the accident. on impact the air bags did not deploy on the driver or passenger side. the doors on the vehicle locked. a person came to get my wife out of the suv but they could not due to the doors locking. i would think that in a 35mph crash that did approx. $8000 of damage that the air bag would hve gone off. i hope this can be solved. thank you.*ak

Seat belt retractor would not retract all the way when released. had part replaced with another type of seat belt due to orginial seat belt being discontinued because of some incompatibility with this seat belt and vehicle. it is very difficult to lock belt.*ak
