1999 Chevrolet Blazer

THE ABS SYSTEMM IS NOT WORKING AND THE IS A SHORT IN THE FRONT END,..CAUSING THE BATTERY TO DIE. AMAZINGLY AFTER THE BATTERY WAS REMOVED FROM THE VEHICLE THE LIGHTS ON THE BUMPER THAT ARE SUPPOSED TO LIGHT UP THE LICENESS PLATE WAS STILL ON. LONG WITH OTHER LIGHTS UNDER THE HOOD. HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE.,,UNLESS THERE IS AN ALTERNATE POWER SOURCE THAT I WAS NEVER MADE AWARE OF. THE IS POLICE DOCUMITATON ON THIS.

1999 CHEVROLET BLAZER WITH A V6 ENGINE HAD A PREMATURE ENGINE FAILURE AT 87K MILES. A HAIR LINE CRACK WAS DISCOVERED IN A CYLINDER USING A DYE TEST. THE MACHINIST WHO INSPECTED THE ENGINE BELIEVES IT WAS CREATED AS THE RESULT OF THE CORROSIVE ACTION OF COOLANT USED BY GM. CHEVROLET SHOWED NO INTEREST IN INSPECTING THE ENGINE. WITHOUT THE AFOREMENTIONED, I INVESTIGATED MYSELF, AND CAN ONLY CONCLUDE THAT A HEAD BOLT WAS NOT PROPERLY SEALED DURING MANUFACTURING, ALLOWING COOLANT TO PENETRATE THE BOLT AREA AROUND THE REAR CYLINDER IN QUESTION. THIS CONDITION CREATED A WEAKENING OF THE CYLINDER WALL OVER TIME CAUSING THE CATASTROPHIC FAILURE. I'VE BEEN COMMUNICATING WITH CHEVROLET FOR OVER TWO YEARS WITH NO SUCCESS.
