ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM:EMISSION CONTROL:GAS RECIRCULATION VALVE (EGR VALVE)

I HAD THE EGR VALVE REPLACED BECAUSE THERE WAS PROBLEMS WITH MY VEHICLE RUNNING TERRIBLE AND KILLING IN TRAFFIC. IT WAS REPLACED FREE BECAUSE THERE WAS A BULLETIN, I REALLY WONDER IF IT WAS REPLACED ON 10/01 BECAUSE ALMOST 1 YEAR LATER 9/02 I STARTED HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS AGAIN AND IT COST ME $272 TO HAVE IT FIXED AND ONCE AGAIN AS OF 10/11/05 COMPUTER DIAGNOSTIC REVEALS THAT THE EGR IS STICKING AGAIN AND IT'S GOING TO COST $375,COULD I HAVE POSSIBLE GOTTEN A DEFECTIVE EGR ON 10/01. ALSO, I HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH MY BLAZER SHORTLY AFTER I PURCHASED IT . WHEN DRIVING ON UNEVEN SURFACE IT SOUNDS AS IF SOMETHING IS CRACKING AND TRYING TO FALL TO PIECES IN THE FRONT AND THE STEERING IS LOOSE AND PULLS TO ONE SIDE, EVEN AFTER A FRONT END ALIGNMENT AND ROTATION AND BALANCE, THE PROBLEM IS NOT CORRECTED. I ACTUALLY HAD 1 OF MANY FRONT END ALIGNMENT AND ROTATION DONE ON 10/07/05 AND MY FRONT END PROBLEM HAS GOTTEN MUCH,MUCH WORSE THAN USUALLY. I AM ALMOST SCARED TO DRIVE IT.

NHTSA complaint #10090227 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:COOLING SYSTEM

ONE OF THE OIL COOLER HOSES CAME OFF THE CRIMP CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO LOSE ALL OIL AND PRESSURE. VEHICLE SHUT DOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF A CURVE, CAUSING OWNER TO LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE (BUT LUCKILY REGAIN IT). ENGINE IS A COMPLETE LOSS AND WILL BE COSTING US THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO REPLACE. THIS REALLY SEEMS TO BE A MANUFACTURER ISSUE, AS THE CRIMP METHOD USED FOR THIS HIGH PRESSURE (AND HIGHLY IMPORTANT) HOSE IS OF A TYPE THAT DOES NOT SEEM RELIABLE. THE SHOP THAT IS HOLDING OUR CAR, PENDING OUR DECISION ON WHAT WE CAN DO ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, HAS INDICATED THEY HAVE HAD ONE OR TWO OTHER BLAZERS IN THEIR SHOP IN THE LAST YEAR WITH THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURRING - AND THAT THEY NOTED AT THE TIME THAT THE CRIMP METHOD, WITHOUT BARBS TO GIVE EXTRA GRAB TO THE HOSE - SEEMS TO BE THE CONTRIBUTING FACTOR. I WOULD REALLY LIKE TO SEE CHEVROLET TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS MANUFACTURING DEFECT - IF THE HOSE HAD BEEN ATTACHED IN A RELIABLE METHOD, THIS PROBLEM WOULD NOT HAVE OCCURRED. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS.

EGR VALVE & OXYGEN SENSORS PROBLEM THE ABOVE MENTIONED ITEMS HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AS A PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES BY DEALER & PRIVATE MECHANICS. A SERVICE BULLETIN WAS SENT OUT IN 1997 WITH A SUMMARY THAT PROVIDES IF NOTHING ELSE A TEMPORARY FIX. I HAVE SPENT SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS FIXING THIS PROBLEM OVER THE LAST 5 YEARS AND WOULD LIKE TO HAVE SOME TYPE OF REIMBURSEMENT, PREFERABLY A RECALL TO HAVE IT FIXED PERMANENTLY. I HAVE VIEWED OTHERS COMMENTS ON THIS VEHICLE AND IT IS AN OVERALL PROBLEM. SEEMS LIKE THE MANUFACTURER IS NOT TAKING ANY RESPONSIBILITY. SINCE YOUR QUESTIONS BELOW DO NOT PRVIDE ROOM FOR EXPLANATION IN THE CRASH COLUMN, I WOULD LIKE TO REMIND EVERYONE THAT WHEN THESE VALVES GET CLOGGED UP THE VEHICLE LITERALLY SEIZES. JUST STOPS, NICE THOUGHT! MY PERSONAL MECHANIC HAS RECOMMENDED THAT WHEN THE VEHICLE STARTS CLUGGING (AS IT WILL), PRIOR TO SEIZING UP & JUST STOPPING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD, (AS IT HAS ALREADY DONE), BRING IT IN, (WE WILL CLEAN IT OUT). WHO'S FAULT WILL AN ACCIDENT BE? THAT REPAIR COULD BE TO THE TUNE OF $100.00 DEPENDING ON IF ANYTHING ELSE WAS AFFECTED BY THIS. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED, AND STILL NOTHING IS DONE ABOUT IT. CURRENTLY WE ARE A TWO CAR FAMILY WITH 2 TEENAGERS IN THE MARKET. CHEVROLET DEALERS WILL NOT BE ON MY LIST TO VISIT. FOR THIS PROBLEM YOU WOULD NEED A REACURRING INCIDENT DATE.

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM:EMISSION CONTROL:GAS RECIRCULATION VALVE (EGR VALVE)

CONSUMER STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AND WITHOUT WARNING, THE EGR VALVE FAILED, WHICH CAUSED THE BRAKES TO FAIL. DEALER NOTIFIED. *AK THE MIXING WITH THE FUEL WAS THE BIGGEST PROBLEM. (WHEN THERE WAS CARBON BUILD UP IN THE EGR VALVE, IT WOULD LEAVE IT OPEN AND CAUSED NO VACUUM HARD PEDAL AND BRAKE FAILURE. WHEN IT RAINED OR WAS COLD THE TRUCK RAN ROUGH. THE SERVICE LIGHT CAME ON WHEN THE VEHICLE HAD RUN ROUGH MORE THAN ONCE, NOISE WAS PRESENT AND THERE WAS A SMELL OF BURNT WIRES AND THE IGNITION SWITCH WAS REPLACED, THE BRAKE PEDAL SEEMED SOFT ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION AND THE MASTER CYLINDER AND OTHER BRAKE COMPONENTS WERE REPLACED TO TRY AND SOLVE THE PROBLEM, THE CD PLAYER HAD NOT WORKED SINCE THE IGNITION SWITCH WAS CHANGED, THE REAR WINDSHIELD WIPERS HAD BECOME INOPERATIVE, A NOISE WOULD OCCUR WHEN TURNING BUT WAS NOT DUPLICATED, AND THE MUFFLER TAIL PIPE HAD FALLEN OFF AND RUSTED DUE TO CARBON BUILD-UP. THE EGR VALVE WAS CLEANED BUT THE PROBLEM PERSISTED. THE MECHANIC STATED THAT IN ORDER TO PERFORM A PROPER JOB, THE EXCESSIVE CARBON BUILD UP IN THE UPPER AND LOWER INTAKE MANIFOLD WHICH EFFECTED THE EGR PENDEL, AND THE 02 SENSOR COULD CAUSE A PROBLEM WITH THE EXHAUST SYSTEM, CATALYTIC CONVERTER, FUEL PUMP, THE BRAKES, ETC. THE BRAKES SQUEAKED, THERE WERE NO DASH LIGHTS, NO AIR CONDITIONING, AND NO 4-WHEEL DRIVE. THE FUEL INJECTIONS NEEDED TO BE CHECKED, AND THERE WERE TWO RECALL STICKERS ON THE ENGINE. *SCC THE REAR WIPER MOTOR, FUEL INJECTORS AND BRAKES WERE REPLACED.

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."
