1999 Chevrolet Blazer

THIS JUST STARTED ONE DAY WHEN WE WERE COMING BACK INTO TOWN. THE CAR HAS NEVER BEEN CRASHED. IF YOU DRIVE AROUND TOWN I DRIVES FINE BUT ONCE YOU ACCELERATE ABOVE 55 MPH SOMETHING CAUSES THE TRANSMISSION TO SLIP FROM 1ST TO 2ND GEAR. AFTER ABOUT AN HOUR THE TRANSMISSION WILL WORK FINE. I KNOW ANOTHER PERSON WHOSE CHEVY BLAZER DID THE SAME THING. *TR

THE MULTIFUNCTION SWITCH IS NOT WORKING CORRECTLY ON MY VEHICLE. OUT OF THE BLUE I STARTED HEARING THE BLINKER INDICATOR NOISE WITHOUT ACTUALLY USING MY BLINKERS. THE NOISE AND THE BLINKER WORK TOGETHER WHEN THEY SHOULD, BUT NOW THE NOISE COMES ON RANDOMLY REGARDLESS OF THE ACTUAL SIGNAL. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE ENGINE IS ON AND WHEN JUST THE ACCESSORY SWITCH IS ENGAGED, GOING STRAIGHT, TURNING, FORWARD, BACKWARD, NEUTRAL...AT ALL TIMES. THE BLINKING LAST ANYWHERE FROM A SINGLE CLICK TO A MINUTE STRAIGHT. MY MECHANIC REPLACE THE RELAY AND I HAVE CHECKED ALL MY FUSES, THE PROBLEM HAS REMAINED. THE ONLY OPTION LEFT IS TO REPLACE/REPAIR THE SWITCH WHICH MY MECHANIC HAS QUOTED AT ABOUT $400, WHICH IS WHAT IT APPEAR OTHERS HAVE PAID. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR ABOUT TWO WEEKS NOW. THIS WAS A RECALLED ITEM ON OTHER VEHICLES AT THIS TIME BY THIS MANUFACTURER BUT NOT MY SPECIFIC YEAR/MODEL. *TR

THERE IS A CONSTANT BLINKING NOISE COMING FROM MY GLOVE BOX. WHEN PRESSING ON THE BREAK IT QUITS. BY LOOKING UP INFORMATION ON THE INTERNET I FOUND OUT IT IS THE MULTIFUNCTION SWITCH. THERE WERE RECALLS ON OTHER YEARS BUT NOT 1999 BLAZERS. ITS VERY EXPENSIVE TO FIX. THERE WAS ONE ON 1998 BLAZERS I BELIEVE. I HAVE A 99 CHEVY BLAZER. HAS HAPPENED SINCE I BOUGHT IT. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 CHEVROLET BLAZER. THE CONTACT TOOK HER VEHICLE TO THE DEALER BECAUSE SHE HEARD A LOUD NOISE COMING FROM THE WHEELS. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE TWO FRONT TIRE HUBS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. SEVERAL DAYS LATER, WHILE ATTEMPTING TO PARK THE VEHICLE INTO A PARKING SPACE, THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE TIRE SPONTANEOUSLY DETACHED FROM THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE ALMOST CAUSED A CRASH. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALER AND THEY SPECULATED THAT THE HUBS WERE DEFECTIVE. THE DEALER REPAIRED THE HUBS. THE CONTACT HAS ALL OF THE DOCUMENTS PERTAINING TO THE REPAIRS MADE TO THE VEHICLE. SHE ALSO HAS POSSESSION OF THE FAILED COMPONENT. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 81,200.
