THE UPPER BALL JOINT FAILED WHILE I WAS TURNING IN TO MY DRIVEWAY. THE FRONT WHEEL THEN FOLDED UNDER MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE. IF I HAD BEEN TRAVELING ON AN INTERSTATE, SURELY I WOULD HAVE LOST CONTROL AND POSSIBLY WOULD HAVE "ROLLED" THE VEHICLE SEVERAL TIMES. THIS PROBLEM WAS IDENTIFIED UNDER A NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID #95V080000. WHEN I CALLED THE CHEVROLET HOTLINE (1 800 222 1020) I WAS TOLD THAT MY VIN WAS NOT COVERED BY THIS RECALL. I WAS GIVEN A REQUEST #C02430111. I BELIEVE THIS RECALL SHOULD BE EXPANDED TO COVER ALL BLAZERS, ESPECIALLY SINCE MY REPAIR BILL FOR THIS IS ALMOST THE SAME WORDING AS WAS USED IN THE CAMPAIGN NUMBER PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED. *AK

VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: CERTAIN 4-WHEEL DRIVE PICKUP TRUCKS AND SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH ABS (ANTILOCK BRAKING SYSTEM) MANUFACTURED FROM SEPTEMBER 1989 THROUGH AUGUST 1996. UNDER CERTAIN DRIVING CONDITIONS THE SWITCH WHICH SIGNALS THE ABS SYSTEM WHETHER THE VEHICLE IS IN 2-WHEEL OR 4-WHEEL DRIVE CAN MALFUNCTION CAUSING INCREASED STOPPING DISTANCES DURING ABS STOPS WHILE IN THE TWO-WHEEL DRIVE MODE.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: IF THIS OCCURRED AT A TIME WHEN MINIMUM STOPPING DISTANCE WAS REQUIRED, A VEHICLE CRASH COULD OCCUR WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE OR REPAIR THE 4-WHEEL/2-WHEEL DRIVE SWITCH.
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: LIGHT DUTY PICKUP TRUCKS AND SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES, 2 AND 4-WHEEL DRIVE. SOLDER JOINTS NEAR THE WIRING HARNESS CONNECTOR CAN CRACK CAUSING THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS TO WORK INTERMITTENTLY.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: THIS CONDITION CAN RESULT IN INOPERATIVE WIPERS, REDUCING A DRIVER'S VISIBILITY, AND INCREASING THE RISK OF A VEHICLE CRASH.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE WIPER MOTOR CIRCUIT BOARD AND COVER.
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: 4-DOOR, 4-WHEEL DRIVE AND ALL-WHEEL DRIVE MULTI-PURPOSE PASSENGER VEHICLES. DURING DEVELOPMENT TESTING, THE PROP SHAFT CONTACTED THE INBOARD SIDE OF THE FUEL TANK ALLOWING FUEL LEAKAGE. THIS LEAKAGE WAS IN EXCESS OF THE AMOUNT PERMITTED BY FMVSS 301, "FUEL SYSTEM INTEGRITY."
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: IF AN IGNITION SOURCE IS PRESENT, AND THERE IS A FUEL LEAK, A FIRE COULD OCCUR.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSTALL ADDITIONAL SHIELDING OF THE FUEL TANK. THIS WILL BE ADDED WITHOUT REMOVING OR DISASSEMBLING THE FUEL SYSTEM.
FAN BLADE RIVET BREAKAGE CAN OCCUR CAUSING THE FAN BLADE TO SEPARATE FROM THE SPIDER.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: IF THIS OCCURRED WHILE THE HOOD WAS OPEN, A PERSON WORKING UNDER THE HOOD OF THE VEHICLE OR IN THE VICINITY OF THE VEHICLE COULD BE STRUCK BY THE FAN BLADE AND INJURED.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT AND REPLACE, IF NECESSARY, THE FAN WITH A NEWER FAN HAVING THICKER-HEADED RIVETS.
THE BRAKE PEDAL PIVOT BOLT WAS STARTED IN THE WELD NUT, BUT WAS NOT TORQUED CORRECTLY CAUSING THE BOLT TO DISENGAGE FROM THE WELD NUT.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: THIS CONDITION CAN RESULT IN A TOTAL LOSS OF BRAKINGCAPABILITY.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT FOR HAND-STARTED BRAKE PEDAL BOLTS AND TORQUE THEM TO CORRECT SPECIFICATIONS.
