2000 Chevrolet Blazer — reported problems

What owners report: issue areas

Owner complaints are classified by the system they concern: 880 classifications in all. One complaint can concern several systems, so these add up to more than the number of complaints.

• Suspension113 (12.8%)Official recall records for this system: 5, covering model years 1995–1998.
• Lights97 (11.0%)Official recall records for this system: 8, covering model years 1995–2021.
• Powertrain (transmission & drivetrain)88 (10.0%)Official recall records for this system: 6, covering model years 2019–2023.

• Brakes78 (8.9%)Official recall records for this system: 10, covering model years 1995–2000.
• Electrical system55 (6.3%)Official recall records for this system: 4, covering model years 1997–2002.

Other / uncategorized: 15 classifications (1.7%) were not assigned to a specific system by the source. They are counted but not treated as an issue area.

These are counts of records held by CarFaultIQ, not a failure rate. More records can simply mean more vehicles were sold or more owners reported. No vehicles-in-service figure exists in this data, so no reliability or risk score can be derived from it.

What the records are about, by source

Each source is kept separate: owner complaints, recalls, manufacturer communications and investigations are different kinds of record and are never added together. All model years.

• Owner complaints (12,586 records, model years 1995–2026) are most frequently classified under: brakes, visibility (glass, wipers, mirrors) and powertrain (transmission & drivetrain).
• Safety recalls (88 records, model years 1995–2025) are most frequently classified under: lights, brakes and suspension.
• Transport Canada recalls (52 records, model years 1995–2023) are most frequently classified under: seat belts, brakes and electrical system.
• Manufacturer communications (9,179 records, model years 1995–2026) are most frequently classified under: equipment & accessories, electrical system and engine.

"Most frequently classified under" reports how the records are filed by the source. It is not a finding about causes, and a record can be filed under more than one system. Read the individual records

Mileage reported when the issue occurred

• 273reports included a mileage
• 76,644average of those mileages

This is the mileage owners recorded at the time they reported, not an expected failure mileage and not a prediction for any individual vehicle. The lowest and highest figures on record are not shown: they are unverified odometer entries that include zeros and implausibly high readings, so they would not describe a real range. A median is not shown either, because the stored figures are group totals and a median cannot be recovered from them.

Counts are not adjusted for how many vehicles were sold in each year, so a taller year is not necessarily a worse year.

• P0442 in 5 records
• P0300 in 1 record
• P0410 in 1 record
