I DISCOVERED A LEAK FROM THE TRUCK AND NOTICED THE REAR HATCH OF THE TRUCK WAS COVERED BY AN OILY SUBSTANCE, WHEN I PARKED THE CAR MY GARAGE FILLED WITH SMOKE. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE SERVICE STATION I ALWAYS USE FOR MY BLAZER (NOT THE DEALER). AS SOON AS THEY LOOKED AT THE BLAZER THEY SAID I WAS VERY LUCKY I DIDN'T HAVE A FIRE, IT WAS TRANSMISSION FLUID THAT LEAKED FROM A DEFECTIVE TRANSMISSION FLUID LINE. THE CONNECTOR FROM THE TRANSMISSION TO THE TRANSMISSION LINE WAS DEFECTIVE. SINCE THE BLAZER IS 1700 MILES OVER WARRANTY, CHEVY WOULD NOT GIVE ME ANY SATISFACTION. THE SERVICE STATION SAID THE BLAZER WAS NOT DRIVABLE AND VERY DANGEROUS. I HAVE HAD THE BLAZER REPAIRED AND FOR A SIMPLE CONNECTOR (BECAUSE OF WHERE THE CONNECTION IS) IS WAS $237.00 TO REPAIR.*AK

VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: LIGHT DUTY PICKUP TRUCKS AND SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES. THESE VEHICLES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FMVSS NO. 108, "LAMPS, REFLECTIVE DEVICES, AND ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT." THE DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS BUILT WITH A CANDELA VALUE GREATER THAN 3,000 CANNOT BE MOUNTED HIGHER THAN 864MM ABOVE THE ROAD SURFACE.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: THESE VEHICLES DO NOT COMPLY WITH REQUIREMENTS OF FMVSS NO. 108.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSTALL A REVISED WIRING HARNESS THAT CHANGES THE DRL'S FROM HIGH BEAM TO LOW BEAM DRL'S, AND INSTALL NEW LONG-LIFE LOW BEAM BULBS.
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: MULTI-PURPOSE PASSENGER VEHICLE EQUIPPED WITH 4-WHEEL DRIVE OR ALL-WHEEL-DRIVE. ONE OR BOTH OF THE ATTACHING NUTS FOR THE RIGHT-HAND LOWER CONTROL ARM ARE UNDER TORQUED. THIS CAN ALLOW THE ATTACHMENT BOLT TO LOOSEN AND SUBSEQUENT BREAK RESULTING IN SEPARATION OF THE LOWER CONTROL ARM FROM THE FRAME.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: THIS CONDITION CAN RESULT IN A LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT AND RETIGHTEN THE RIGHT-HAND LOWER CONTROL ARM NUTS TO THE PROPER TORQUE SPECIFICATION.
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: LIGHT DUTY PICKUP TRUCKS AND MULTI-PURPOSE PASSENGER VEHICLES. A FATIGUE FRACTURE OF THE REAR AXLE RIGHT-HAND BRAKE PIPE CAN OCCUR CAUSING A SLOW BRAKE FLUID LEAK RESULTING IN A SOFT BRAKE PEDAL. IF THE BRAKE PIPE BREAKS, THE DRIVER WOULD EXPERIENCE A SUDDEN DROP IN THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL BRAKE LIGHT WOULD ILLUMINATE, AND THERE WOULD BE A LOSS OF REAR BRAKE PERFORMANCE.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: PARTIAL LOSS OF BRAKING AT A TIME WHEN MINIMUM STOPPING DISTANCE WAS REQUIRED COULD RESULT IN A VEHICLE CRASH.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT AND REPLACE THE BRAKE PIPE.
