2000 Chevrolet Blazer 4x4 4.3 from North America
Summary:
Runs OK, but the little stuff makes me want to buy something else next time
Faults:
Mirror motor bad.
Power window driver side fails at times.
Left side wheel bearing.
Oxygen sensor bad.
Fuel leveling sensor bad.
Universal joint bad.
Door bushings bad.
Required complete back brake rebuild at 80000.
Passenger seat doesn't lock in place, so when accelerating or braking, hang on.
General Comments:
Engine always runs good.
Brace yourself after 80000.
Door problem is a quality issue.
I had almost all of the most common problems.
Back windshield wiper doesn't even touch the window. Keeps the air in front of the wiper dry however.
Power mirrors only work in one direction, so I have to get out of the car and push them over manually, and then use the motor to adjust.
Annoying when trying to order fast food and the window does not roll down.
Because of the door bushings, the car leaks when it rains.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? No

The passenger seat should be required to be fixed by the NHTSA. With seatbelts, they require manufacturers to fix sometimes even in circumstances beyond the normal warranty. A seat that could eject a passenger into the dash or even through the windshield during hard braking seems like Chevy would cover that. For the back window wiper, it sounds like the wrong sized wiper was installed on there.
