Data synced from NHTSA on May 4, 2026
The steering assist stopped working. The defrost stopped working because the ac stopped working. The temp gauge stopped working. Error code P0128. I have since found out all this is caused by a faulty temp sensor.
Took 2021 Chevy Blazer to a Chevy dealer for small leak. 25000 miles and dealer said I have a leak in the radiator and needs to be replaced. If I didn't notice the small leak the engine could overheat, and possibly start a fire.
"Driver Assisted Reduced Use Drive With Care Message" comes on when it is over 70 degrees outside. The temperature gage reads zero, A/C does not work, when the car is turned off the fan runs on high for an extended period of time. Showing code P0128 Used car purchase, came on 3 days after receiving vehicle from the dealership. Reset the code came on again 2.5 weeks later (5/3/2025) when the outside temperature was in the 70's
To whom it may concern, I own a 2021 chevrolet blazer I have been noticing a very large amount of water on the front floor boards since this discovery the windows being moist in the mornings make sence l. The windshield has been replaced several times with no obvious leaks at this location. There is no visible leaks during heavy rain or car washing, the biggest concern i have it if there's moisture I am more likely to develop electrical problems not to mention the moldy smell in the vehicle. I have done extensive research and found this to be a problem with most Chevrolet Blazer's my question is does Chevrolet have a solution to the problem that has found its way to many customers. I would believe with the number of complaints the Chevrolet engineers are working on a solution or a reason for this problem. Thank you, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
The vehicle’s brakes failed while I was driving. I was luckily able to steer the vehicle off the road narrowly avoiding hitting another car. We had the vehicle towed to a Chevy dealer and they told us the fault was due to a low voltage battery. They would also not drive the vehicle until the battery was replaced because it was giving an error message of “brake system failure”. The dealer is the only place that has inspected the vehicle at this time. The warning messages appeared at the time of failure and not before. I find this to be a manufacturing defect in need of a recall as this could have easily caused harm or loss of life.
The thermostat and the sensor for the thermostat continues to go bad
Driver steering assist reduce message in display. Upon scanning codes, error code P0128 triggered. Temperature gauge does not register on dial between C-H.
Steering Assist is Reduced came on dashboard. Check engine late came on shortly after. AC wasn't working and the temperature gauge on the dash wouldn't move. I took it into a shop where they said it was a temperature gauge that was causing all the issues and would need to be replaced. P
The contact owns a 2021 Chevrolet Blazer. The contact stated while driving 35 MPH, the ambient air temperature was stuck on negative forty. The contact replaced the sensor. The vehicle went into ICE/SNOW Mode on several occasions and was not driving as designed. The air conditioner was blowing out hot air. Additionally, the vehicle was pulling to the right while driving. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who scanned the vehicle and determined that the sensor was operating as designed. The mechanic informed the contact that there was a loss of communication. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed that the control arm needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. The dealer informed the contact that there was no recall coverage on the vehicle. The manufacturer was contacted and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline. The failure mileage was approximately 34,980.
The contact owns a 2021 Chevrolet Blazer. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, there was an abnormal roaring sound coming from the engine compartment. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who diagnosed a failure with the transmission. The contact was informed there were metal fragments inside the transmission fluid. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact was informed that the transmission needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, and a case was opened. The failure mileage was 84,000.
I just got off work, and when I start my vehicle, my infotainment screen that I use for GPS and other features that are included in the safety of the car, and the screen just says, “Update Failed, Return to Dealer.”. The service advisor at Chevy says that this happens and that there is nothing they can do besides replace the entire radio, at a cost of $2000 with Labor. I also researched the issue online and there are dedicated websites to this very issue with multiple year and models in the Chevy lineup that uses the Chevy MyLink infotainment center. Which is in every vehicle they sell. So currently I’m unable to access any radio, GPS, safety cameras around the vehicle, or any of my OnStat Emergency Services that come with the vehicle due to an update that I never asked for, or even attempted to install. And for Chevy to not replace the radio but instead recognize it’s a problem but still charging you to fix something that they know is defective.
In March after a short drive, 24 miles, the car temp was pegged at Cold. After turning off the car, the fan continued to run several minutes. After a quick internet search several posts commented on a similar issue with their vehicle. Two potential issues were identified - thermostat failure or programming issue. With less than 40,000 miles on the car, I purchased a diagnostic tool. Running the tool program two errors were identified. After resetting the sensors, the problem went away. In September, yesterday and today the problem occurred again - and the error reset fixes the issue. I believe Chevy needs to fix the issue with a recall to either update programming or replace the thermostat. [Several posts state the thermostat replacement didn't fix the issue and is very expensive.]
I parked on an incline using the parking brake and the vehicle could not disengage the brake
The Transmission valve control body went out while I was on the freeway.I was able to pull off to the side safely but has rendered my vehicle inoperable until I get this repaired. I have confirmed this with the dealership. This is a large enough issue with vehicles that the necessary parts are on back order. Anecdotally, the dealership told me there was a vehicle that was waiting for almost 3 months for a replacement part. For context I have regularly maintained this vehicle and just 10000 miles ago got my transmission flushed.
I got home from work, locked my car up for the night with everything working perfectly fine, then came out to leave for work the next morning to find “update failed. Return to dealer” on the infotainment screen. I did some pretty extensive research trying to find the fix, only to find that many people are having this exact same issue in the same circumstances where their vehicle was fine when it was parked, they go to get back in and nothing with the infotainment works. According to my online research, GM/Chevy is charging anywhere from $1500-2000 to fix. I contacted few different dealers to see if I would get the same price and I absolutely did. They said, “your car is no longer covered under any warranties so you will be fully responsible for the cost of the fix.” I have no sound, no GPS on my screen so now I have to use my phone for work navigation (talk about a safety hazard), my turn signal sounds don’t work, my talk to text doesn’t work, no more hands free calls. This is a huge safety issue and makes me wonder why there isn’t a recall yet. This is not normal wear and tear. This is a glitch in the GM programming that they should take responsibility for and fix before they lose a lot of business.
Vehicle is available upon request. 5/28/23 tires needed replaced, not even 30,000 miles on car. Customer was charged. 6/13/23 struts and mounts replaced at dealership 3/29/24-Revs high when barely touching pedal. Turned car off and it started back up on its own. Happens at least once a week. Dealership was unable to recreate. 4/1/24- wheel bearing replaced, customer was charged. April 2024 black metal showing through white paint. Paint was thin and fading. Dealership repainted the 2 doors that had paint issues. 12/20/24- Antifreeze level was at bottom of reservoir. Sloshing noise when driving. Was told air in hoses and will work it's way out. Was back at dealership 1/15/25, 1/24/25 & 2/5/25. Radiator fluid still dropping but even with dye test they can't figure out where it's going. Terrified it's going to effect the water pump and engine.
This is re: dash warning that came on saying "Action Required, Steering Assist is Reduced, Drive with Care" on 2021 Chevy Blazer, 28.800 miles. First happened 1/15/25 & each time car is started it is on now, plus the Check Engine light is on now. The fan of the motor runs for 5-10 minutes once car is shut off also. I have read of the power steering locking totally up on other Blazers that this has happened on, making this a very big danger and risky. I am not sure if it is power steering, electrical, or engine issue, but believe with so many reports out there and it causing a danger to people driving, GM/Chevrolet should put a recall on this and look at these before people are killed (if not already due to this). I am taking mine to Chevy dealer to have it looked at, but many people may not have that option.
While driving previous year 2024 the steering wheel became stiff and hard to turn. I was going around 60MPH and the Reduce Steering Drive with caution appear. Took it to the nearest Autzone no codes. We removed battery for 30 min and the steering wheel worked. Again changed my battery and the steering wheel will not turn. Had to disconnect for a day and the steering wheel worked. Fast forward 2025 Jan 14th driving down highway 360 going 60MPH my steering wheel message reappear. Called a dealer service they say they don't know. We had to tow it back to the house after work my OBD reader did not have any codes. Is a dangerous issue that needs to be recalled. I could of cause and accident.
I have a 2021 Chevy Blazer that has 31,0000 miles and my steering locked up. I was driving and barley got into a parking lot. Told by a certified dealer it is the power steering gear and possible the power steering module. No parts available and no ETA. This does not make sense that the steering with such low miles has gone out. I have read on the GM forum that multiple people have had this issue. I could have been killed. Why has there not been a recall on this very expensive repair?
The contact owns a 2021 Chevrolet Blazer. The contact stated that upon turning off the vehicle, the fan remained engaged for approximately 10 minutes. Additionally, the contact stated that the A/C system was intermittently inoperable. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle made an abnormal sound, and the contact noticed that there was a coolant leak onto the floor of the vehicle. An unknown warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to East Houston Auto Electric, where it was diagnosed that the thermostat was stuck and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The dealer and the manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 95,000.
On [XXX], I was driving my Blazer up to our local Museum to grab some information. The Museum is about a mile and a half from my house. When I had left my house, the car was driving like normal. I pulled into a parking spot at the Museum, and I went to shut the vehicle off, and I thought maybe the check engine light had come on but wasn't completely paying attention to the dash. About 10 minutes later I went to restart the vehicle to leave and I noticed the check engine light on. Since the vehicle seemed to be driving okay I thought I could make it home and check the car's computer to see what the issue was. As I was leaving the parking lot I stopped at the end of the parking lot to look before pulling out onto the road and the Blazer said shift to neutral and restart the vehicle. When I did that the vehicle would not start. It would just crank and crank and then it would finally start for a few seconds. I was going to back my vehicle up out of the road but each time I would try the car would die. I am very thankful this did not happen on the highway or even on the freeway. A friend and myself had to push my vehicle back into a parking spot. The DTC code is a P023F. When this happens, you can't technically shift the vehicle into neutral to push it out of the way because the car has to be running to shift. I was able to force it into neutral, however. I made an appointment with Awesome Chevrolet in Chehalis WA and had to have it towed to the dealer. They stated it was the fuel pump module. I had at that time 18,388 miles on the odometer. Unfortunately, I no longer feel safe with this vehicle in case it happens again. Where I am hours from home or on a 2-lane road or freeway. The fuel pump module failure appears to be a known issue with GM vehicles. The fuel pump module was replaced and was able to be replaced under warranty. I hope that it does not happen again.

Upon driving my vehicle twice it shut off on the roadway once on an incline when a message of 2 keys detected and flashed on the dashboard prior to the vehicle shutting off. Vehicle would not restart until 15 minutes later it restarted but the dashboard kept flashing 2 keys detected. There was only one key in the vehicle at the time and the key fob has had the battery replaced upon the first incident which was on 11/14/2024 and the second incident was on 11/16/2024.
P0128, AC not working, Steering Assist Reduced, and Temp Gauge not working. Problem caused by faulty ECT wiring. First the problem is the ECT is a two wire (signal + and -) 26 gauge wire running through the ignition coil wire harness. Ignition coil signals are very high voltage and fairly fast frequency which causes a lot of EMI which is easily picked up on a 2 wire voltage based wire set. The ECT wiring should have been a twisted shielded pair if running next to Coil wiring or they could have used a single wire resistance thermistor, but they should have just routed the signal a different way to begin with. This is a design issue and it should be a recall...maybe a class action lawsuit is needed to force them to fix it correctly. The FSB (field service bulletin) fix blames loose connector terminals and it patches the computer software to not include ECT wire failures in the Steering, AC, and temp gauge inhibit logic (overtemp readings will still fail off these functions). Also the P0128 code can come back occasionally.
The brakes failed on my SUV as I was driving on a city street. Yes it is available for inspection. Losing my breaks almost caused a collision with the car in front of me but due to the distance between the cars and the low speed at the time, I was able to avoid collision and detour into a parking lot where I cruised to a stop with the help of a parking lot space concrete stop. The problem was not reproduced by me but the service center computer diagnostics confirmed break issues. The service center says that the cause was low voltage of the car battery which affected the brakes. This is a very dangerous situation if the vehicle can lose complete braking ability due to a low voltage battery. This is the reason for reporting the issue. They replace the battery and said that should fix the issue. They said the only recourse to avoid this happening again is to replace the battery around every 2 years. The issue was inspected by a service center owned by the manufacturer of my SUV. The warning lamps only occurred as the brake system failed. A message of "Brake System Failure" appeared and the "Check Engine" light came on. Within the previous week of the issue the SUV also had other electrical issues such as the Climate Control interface went out and the rear camera also went out.
Steering assist reduced message comes on and temperature guage goes down to cold not working and after you shut car off fan runs full force for 10 minutes. Shows no check engine light or no codes.
The Radiator has a crack in the upper left front of the core causing the fluid to leak and lose pressure causing the engine to overheat. This is a manufacture defect that has not been addressed as of 10/16/2024. The leak was discovered by a certified GM mechanic at a dealership when doing routine maintenance and inspection. The vehicle has never had any indication or advisory light that would alert the operator. As the engine overheats it can cause many of the other components of the vehicle to disable, including but not limited to the ADAS systems as well as power steering and/or collision safety components. This is a manufactures defect with the aluminum radiator that needs to be addressed immediately. Given the information from multiple GM dealerships the amount of newer low mileage Blazers that have been confronted with this problem is unprecedented. This not only creates a danger for the passengers of the vehicle but also every other vehicle on the road.
The first incident started on 08/16/2024, 2 days after buying the vehicle used from Dealership. I started getting notifications stating "Service-Front Camera not available" and sure enough, I no longer had a front camera, which then means I no longer have front collision alerts. Then I started getting the random notifications to drive carefully because drivers assistance has been reduced, and now my vehicle's fan will randomly run for up to 30 minutes after it has been shut off and even after a less than 2 mile drive to gas station and back home, it does this. Last item is the vehicle pulls to the right, and I have not hit anything nor has it ever been in an accident prior to my purchase, and my brakes squeal horribly, which shouldn't be happening condidering I haven't even driven the vehicle 5,000 miles in the year since I bought it !
Leaking coolant from bad radiator “just out of warranty”. Roughly $2000 repair estimate
Instrument cluster completely blacked out, providing no information on vehicle speed or status of operation. Operation of a vehicle without instrumentation would seem to be a safety risk. Chevy dealer diagnosed problem as IPC error U0155, installed updated software to correct the problem. The repair was not covered by the extended warranty I purchased through General Motors when I bought the car. I think a defect such as this should be the manufacturers responsibility, I believe GM has a service bulletin out for this problem covering several models of their vehicles. This should be upgraded to a recall.
Power Liftgate randomly opens when driving or parked. Even when the power switch is turned to off the liftgate will unlock randomly either parked or driving. I have contacted the dealer and GM no recall currently exists. Dealer recommended replacing the latch mechanism which I have ordered to replace myself.
I have a 2021 Chevy Blazer which has had to have two radiators replaced with less than 50,000 miles on the vehicle. The first time was in March of 2023. I took my vehicle in for an oil change and the technician told me the radiator was cracked and all of the coolant was drained from the vehicle. It must have just run out because I regularly check my fluids and the vehicle was not overheating prior to the appointment. The vehicle had about 32k miles on it, so the radiator was covered under warranty. Now in April of 2024 with 49k miles, I take my vehicle in for another oil change and the radiator is cracked, again, with coolant leaking. The technician told me two things that are concerning about this. 1.) This is a known issue on the Blazers that they’ve done multiple repairs on. 2.) There is a piece of plastic under the radiator that catches the coolant when it leaks, making it hard to notice an issue because the coolant doesn’t pool on the ground underneath. My service advisor went to bat for me against GM, who partially paid for the second radiator. This brought my installation cost to $235, even though it was no longer under warranty. Radiators cracking is a serious safety issue because if the driver doesn’t notice the engine overheating, it could cause a vehicle fire putting the occupants and surrounding environment in danger. There are no warning lights on the vehicle to tell you if there is low coolant, other than noticing the temperature gauge when it is too late. I don’t know if GM didn’t install rubber bushings to absorb the impact of bumps on the road, or if it needs some rubber washers on the bolts, but something is missing. Online forums will confirm that this is an ongoing issue for owners of the Chevy Blazer
I have made numerous complaints to Jeff Schmitt Chevy dealership Dayton, Ohio regarding parking brake being engaged upon starting vehicle even though vehicle is on flat surface. Twice now, last occurring [XXX], while gradually increasing speed to make a left hand turn the vehicle suddenly self-brakes, during acceleration, making a harsh screeching sound. I remove my foot completely from the accelerator before I accelerate again. The initial incident was reported to chevy dealership. No findings have been noted per dealership. No accidents have occurred. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
The failing component is the ESC/power steering. It is available for inspection. It is currently at Bayway Chevrolet in Pearland, Texas. My safety and the safety of others is at risk when the power steering fails not allowing me to turn out of the way from road hazards or even make legal turns. This could result in an auto accident causing bodily injury or death to me or other drivers. Yes, a service shop in Alvin was able to see/reproduce the errors. No, however the vehicle is currently in the shop being looked at by service techs. There were no warning lights, messages, or other indications prior to [XXX] around 2pm EST, when this happened. The vehicle was driven home from work that evening. The vehicle was not driven all day [XXX]. Today, [XXX], I drove the vehicle to the service shop in Alvin, Texas to replace the battery. Around 10:45am EST, the errors/messages came on. I drove back to the battery shop in Alvin and they ran the codes. This is where they were able to feel the steering tighten up. I drove the vehicle to Bayway Chevrolet for repairs. Once I receive an estimate or repair invoice, I would be happy to send that over.

I was driving on the highway when my car started operating like it was in neutral. RPMs was high but the car started to stall and slow down and because of it I had to immediately pull over. The car would not go into gear. I attempted to put it in drive ajd press the acceleration pedal but it just revved. Same with putting it in reverse. It's a safety concern because my car could not maintain highway speed and abruptly went stagnant. I had the vehicle towed to dealer and they replaced the entire transmission system. The car always had a shudder feel to it when accelerating from 0 onwards to 40 mph.The day this occurred there was no blatant warning signs.
The contact owns a 2021 Chevrolet Blazer. The contact stated that the check engine warning light was illuminated. The contact was unable to use the electrical features in the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed that the purge pump needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and opened a case. The approximate failure mileage was 36,000.
The Esc display came up then sutbality sensor show and my back wheel went right. My car flipped twice and then landed on the guardrail.
The contact owned a 2021 Chevrolet Blazer. The contact stated while driving 69-70 MPH, the steering wheel strongly pulled to the left side and into the roadway median. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact stated that the vehicle hit the median and bounced, facing incoming traffic. The contact slammed on the brakes and shifted into park (P). The air bags deployed. The contact was able to exit the vehicle with the assistance of bystanders. Emergency services arrived at the scene but the contact was not transported to the hospital at the time. The contact later received medical assistance and was informed she had sustained soreness on the neck, shoulders and bruises all over the body. Additionally, the contact was advised she had sustained post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to a tow lot, where it was totaled. The dealer was not notified of the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and a case was opened. The failure mileage was approximately 24,000.
While driving on the highway at speeds above 60 MPH, the engine shut off. There was a slight shuttering immediately prior, but no other indication. I had to pull over, across three lanes of traffic, during rush hour, in a fairly heavy rain and became a disabled vehicle on the shoulder. After being towed to the dealer, it was determined that the fuel pump was faulty. The vehicle had 4,954 miles on it so there was no reason for this part to have failed so early.
Tires - purchased vehicle from car dealership two weeks ago. Drivers side rear tire low. Aired up was low again next day. Blow out On freeway tires are unsafe. Per Discount Tire said tire could not be repaired . all four tired unsafe, tread issue. Replaced two rear tires. Unknown when light came on. Tire size 265/45r21 dot A3LMWD 30
Receiving 3 different errors on dash display. 1) Action Required- No Remote Detected 2) Action Required- No Remote Detected Press Brake to Restart 3) No Remote Key Wa Detected Place Key In Transmitter Pocket Then Start Your Vehicle. All of these errors are intermittent and have appeared with using 2 different Remotes. Batteries have been replaced also. This in itself is not so much a safety hazard (annoying), but what is intermittently happening is the car shuts down while in drive and in reverse. So far it has not shut down on the freeway but has shut down while on City streets. We have taken it to 2 different GM Dealers a total of 7 times in the last 3 months(currently at the dealer now). Each time the dealer is saying they cannot duplicate the errors. We get it back and within 1 (usually the same day)day it is right back with the errors. Clearly these errors are a nuisance and dangerous if the vehicle shuts down. I have additional service documents and photos and videos but due to the maximum I can provide they are not uploaded.
The radio and all the sound notifications such as turn signals, emergency flashers, crash avoidance, cross traffic, lane departure, and the use of the emergency OnStar system do not work. this has been addressed in GM service information #PIT5971B: Loss OF Audio and OnStar LED is Red - (Apr 3, 2023) GM appears to be addressing this as an inconvenience of not having the entertainment of the radio and not the safety features associated with it. This also includes the use of hands-free cell phone.
The breaks make a squealing noise all the time which is concerning. I was told by Beaver Chevrolet that this is normal as the breaks were changed in newer car models. They have made a squealing noise ever since I bought the car brand new. I took the car into Beaver Chevrolet approximately 4 months ago and was told that they were unable to replace the breaks because they "weren't squealing bad enough". They did spray my breaks down, however they told me that once I hit 36,000 miles if the issue was still occuring (which it will be) that I would have to pay to have the breaks sprayed. The issue persisted and the spray they used only lasted a few days. Typically breaks should not squeal unless they have gone bad, which isn't the case here. I find this issue to be a safety hazard as how are customers supposed to know when their breaks actually do go bad if they squeal all the time. The issue was reproduced, but it is unclear what their standard is for determining the actual noise to breaking ratio.
On Friday, April 28, 2023, at about 11:30 am, my car, died as I was driving it out of the grocery store parking lot; luckily, it didn’t happen as I was crossing the busy highway. I attempted several times to restart it, with no luck. There were no warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of this problem. The vehicle was in the middle of an aisle, blocking the aisle and many cars in parking spots, so I managed to get it into neutral and it backed around into parking spaces where the left rear quarter stopped against the front tire of a Ford F-350. I was actually thankful for the truck as I had no steering or brakes, and I was on a slight hill heading towards the road. I had it towed to the dealership, which was unable to tell me what the problem was before I obtained a ride home at 3:30 pm and that they would call me when they had it figured out. When I returned home, my husband had searched the internet for recalls for the car and was unable to locate any. I called the service department the next day, Saturday April 29, and was told that the problem was the fuel pump control module, which was under warranty, and it could be 3 months before it was fixed as they didn’t have one, and there was a large backorder. The fuel pump module was recalled on other GM vehicles GM #N212382040 and NHTSA campaign #21V739000, and there was another recall by GM on February 6, 2023 Recall #N222372310 that did NOT include the Chevy Blazer.
The contact owns a 2021 Chevrolet Blazer equipped with Continental Tires, Tire Line: Crosscontact LX Sport, Tire Size: 235/65/R18, DOT: (Unavailable). The contact stated that while driving at various speeds and driving over snow covered roads, the rear end was swaying. The tires were wearing from the inside out. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer where it was diagnosed that the tires needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was notified about the failure and offered to assist with the repair. The approximate failure mileage was 14,000.

The contact was informed that the VIN was not included in NHTSA Campaign Number: 20T018000 (Tires). The tires were not replaced. The manufacturer was contacted and confirmed that the tires were not included in the recall. The contact was advised to contact the NHTSA hotline to file a complaint. The failure mileage was 20,000.
I went out to start my car and the light said that it was not reading the key fob because of low battery. I went and got the other key fob which had never been used and had the same result. The car was towed by Chevrolet to the dealer and it has been there for over 3 weeks. They found that it wasn't a faulty key fob but it was the receiver that gets the signal and allows the door locks to open and the engine to start. I tried moving the shift lever, stepping on the brakes, trying the remote start on the key fob and nothing would start the car nor would it lock/unlock the doors. It just kept giving me the notice that it couldn't read the key fob. I called ONSTAR and tried the actions they told me but that did not work either and they said to contact my selling dealer. ONSTAR contacted the Chevy warranty number for a tow truck but at 9PM it was too late for them to make a service call. What if I was out in a parking lot or in a remote area and experienced the same problem with no assistance. I have been trying to find out what the dealer is doing to repair my vehicle but I have to call the GM complaint line in order for them to try and contact the dealer about my car. They finally gave me a rental vehicle since the vehicle is less than 1 year old and only has about 6,000 miles on it.
Odometer Fraud. The contact purchased a 2021 Chevrolet Blazer. It was discovered that there was a mileage discrepancy. The vehicle was a dealer sale. At the time of purchase, the vehicle mileage was 9,967, and at the time of registration, it was discovered that the mileage was approximately 38,000.
The contact owns a 2021 Chevrolet Blazer. The contact stated that while driving approximately 10 MPH and attempting to make a left turn, the vehicle stalled. The contact depressed the accelerator pedal aggressively several times to get the vehicle to start moving again. The failure reoccurred while the contact’s daughter was driving and attempting to make a left turn at a green light when the vehicle stalled. The contact stated that the failure persisted while driving and attempting to turn to the left. The failure occurred intermittently. The contact stated that only the rear tires would move. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer who was unable to find the cause of the failure. The dealer was not able to duplicate the failure. The failure persisted. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and opened a case. The approximate failure mileage was 28,000.
