2000 Chevrolet Blazer Brakes Problems

“I have replaced the hub assembly, idler arm, & wheel bearings on both driver & passenger side of my vehicle. When I drive over 45 MPH my car makes an awful sound & no matter what I change or have fixed the parking brake/ABS lights stay on. I've had many mechanics look at & say they've fixed the issue but none have actually fixed it. I was driving 70mph on the highway & my brakes felt as if they were locking up.”

“I've owned this vehicle for one year. I am having trouble with the brake light constantly coming on, even driving down the road it comes on. Had the brakes replaced and fluid is good but it constantly comes on. At the same time I had my mechanic look because on occasion when it's put into park, it shuts itself off.”

“The ABS gradually came on. When applying the brakes, the wheels lock up and the Blazer skids about a foot. I have had numerous near accidents because of the ABS. I took the Blazer into the Chevrolet dealership and they ran the VIN. I was told that there are no recalls for my Blazer. However, according to the NHTSA website, there are two recalls (00v055000 & 99v220000). I would like to know whether or not there are any recalls.”

“The anti lock brakes failed to stop my 2000 Blazer in time to avoid hitting a deer. I contacted GM and they told me there was nothing they could do for me, there had been no recall on the 2000 Blazer like there was on other models of SUV's of the same year. I had the problem repaired on my own. It is my belief that there should be a recall on this SUV to prevent anyone from being injured or killed due to brake failing. There was $3200.00 damage on my Blazer and it cost $192.00 to have the problem repaired.”

“My 2000 Blazer ls 2dr 4x4 has ipc problems. The ipc lights have gone out and do not illuminate the gauges, this is a safety hazard when driving. The ABS and parking brake indicator lights go on and off. The parking brake sticks and wont release. Due to the number of complaints, recalls, and service bulletins issued on these safety problems I think more should be done to hold the manufacturer responsible for repairing these defects. The first 11 digits of my VIN match at least 2 other vehicles first 11 digits and yet chevy doesn't feel they should fix the issue with all blazers. …”
