EXTERIOR LIGHTING

MY HAZARDS AND BRAKE LIGHTS DON'T TURN ON.

NHTSA complaint #11208442 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING

MY 2001 BLAZER'S BRAKE LIGHTS STOPPED WORKING DURING A RECENT DRIVE, AND ANOTHER DRIVER WAS KIND ENOUGH TO POINT THIS OUT AT A STOPLIGHT. THE NEXT DAY THE BRAKE LIGHTS WORKED AGAIN, BUT REMAINED ON AFTER I SHUT OFF THE ENGINE. MY MECHANIC WAS ABLE TO DETERMINE THE PROBLEM WAS THE MULTIFUNCTION SWITCH ON THE STEERING COLUMN. THIS WAS A KNOWN ISSUE (GM RECALL NUMBER 01073) AND GM RECALLED A NUMBER OF THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL OF VEHICLES, BUT MY BLAZER'S VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE OFFICIAL RECALL.

WE OWN A 2001 BLAZER AND RECENTLY THE BRAKE LIGHTS ARE ON ALL THE TIME. ALSO, THE HAZARD LIGHTS AND TURN SIGNALS DON'T WORK. IF YOU HOLD THE HAZARD SWITCH PART WAY DOWN AND HOLD IT VERY STEADY YOU CAN GET THE BRAKE LIGHTS AND SIGNALS TO WORK. I'VE TRIED CONTACTING MY LOCAL DEALER, BUT THEY TELL ME THIS IS NOT COVERED BY ANY RECALLS. I WILL HAVE TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE MULTI FUNCTION TURN SWITCH. FROM WHAT I SEE ONLINE, IT LOOKS LIKE THE 2000 BLAZER HAS ALREADY HAD A RECALL FOR A HAZARD SWITCH PROBLEM. I WOULD BET THE 2001 MODEL IS IDENTICAL.

THE BRAKE LIGHTS IN THE BACK OF MY 01 CHEVY BLAZER GO OUT FROM TIME TO TIME. WE GOT THE RECALL INFO FROM CHEVY AND TOOK IT TO THE DEALER. CHEVY SAID THEY FIX THE PROBLEM BEFORE WE HAD THE CAR THUS THEY ARE OFF THE HOOK FOR ANY LIABILITY. WE BOUGHT THE CAR USED WITH ONLY 20,000 MILES AND THE PROBLEM STILL IS OCCURRING WITH THE CAR. THE COST TO FIX THIS PROBLEM IS CLOSE TO 1000 DOLLARS AND I FEEL THAT THE PROBLEM IS STILL OCCURRING EVEN THOUGH THE MANUFACTURER SAID THEY FIXED IT. I FEEL THAT CHEVY SHOULD STILL FIX THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE IT'S OBVIOUS IT WASN'T DONE RIGHT ON THE FIRST ATTEMPT AND MORE IMPORTANTLY IT'S A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION.

IT SCARED ME AND OF COURSE I REAPPLIED THE BRAKE QUICKLY, TO AVOID HITTING THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME, AND I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO STOP. THIS HAPPENED AGAIN A FEW WEEKS LATER AT A LARGE INTERSECTION AT A RED LIGHT. I WAS 7 MONTHS PREGNANT AT THE TIME AND WAS PRETTY SCARED. I HAVE HEARD SEVERAL OF THESE COMPLAINTS AND I KNOW THAT THE BRAKES ON EVERY YEAR BEFORE THIS WERE RECALLED. I ALSO HAD TROUBLE WITH THE BRAKE LIGHTS AND FOUR-WAYS, WHICH STOPPED WORKING. I WAS DRIVING AND THE FOUR WAYS CAME ON. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND ENDED UP HOLDING THE BUTTON DOWN WHILE I DROVE IN ORDER FOR THEM TO STOP FLASHING. SHORTLY AFTER THE TURN SIGNALS STOPPED WORKING. FINALLY, THE SPEEDOMETER TEMPORARILY STOPPED WORKING, THEN SHORTLY AFTER THAT, THE HEAT STOPPED WORKING, THE VEHICLE ONLY BLOWING COLD AIR. WE REPLACED THE THERMOSTAT BUT THE HEAT STILL WOULD NOT FUNCTION. I ENDED UP GETTING RID OF THE VEHICLE BECAUSE OF THE NUMEROUS MALFUNCTIONS.
