    My vehicle was diagnosed with a faulty thermostat, specifically that the thermostat was sticking and needs replaced. My vehicle is at approximately 59,150 miles as of 12/27/2023. Prior to the diagnosis of the faulty thermostat, I intermittently received a warning message "Steering assist reduced - drive with caution", the thermostatic fan would run at full speed, and the P0128 check engine code was illuminated. These symptoms began approximately at the beginning of December 2023. The problem was confirmed by a certified GM dealership service department.

    When the vehicle is in park and you try to turn it off with the start/stop button an on dash error code of ‘Shift to Park’ appears even though the vehicle is clearly in park. You are not able to turn the vehicle off. This currently is forcing me to restart the engine, put my car in reverse, shift back in drive, try re-parking and turning it off again, repeating the process until it eventually turns off. I do not know if my car is truly in gear or not. I’m afraid that it might cause a dangerous situation. GM has already identified this recall for other VINs of 2019 Chevy Blazers I believe it should be extended to additional VINs.

    I recently stopped at a local store and put the car in park. A message appeared on the dash Shift to Park. I was not able to turn the car off and I had to move the gear shift back and forth until the message went off. I couldn't lock the car correctly by moving away from it. I used the key fob to eventually lock the the car. My concern is that if my wife is driving, she may not be able to lock or move the vehicle. This seems very unsafe. Should this be brought to the attention of the local Chevrolet dealer?

The contact stated that the "Shift to Park" message was displayed while the vehicle was in park(P). The contact repeatedly struck the back of the gear shifter while in park(P) to correct the failure. The gear shifter had been replaced on four separate occasions.

  • 12/02/2023· POWER TRAIN,LANE DEPARTURE

    I took my vehicle to the dealership for the recommended oil change on 09/15/2023. I am extremely good about keeping up on the routine maintenance. Upon arrival, the technician asked if I knew that my check engine light was on. I stated no, it was not on during my drive in and has not been on previously whatsoever. I scheduled a diagnostic for 09/20/2023 and brought it back to the dealership with 68,191 being the mileage. It was determined that my thermostat needs to be replaced. I then began receiving the message Steering Assist is Reduced" which is very unsettling. I am finding that a lot of newer model 2019+ Chevy Blazer owners are struggling with the exact same temperature issue, even those with way fewer mileage than mine for example a person who just had 25K on theirs. This needs to be taken more seriously / addressed further by the manufacturer.

  • 11/12/2021· TIRES

    I purchased this vehicle on June 26, 2020. When the vehicle was serviced on May 13, 2021 it had 8,366 miles on it and the tread wear was recorded at 6/32". In late June/early July 2021, I noticed the rear end of the vehicle seemed to slide around corners which lead me to research on the internet the Michelin tires that were on the vehicle. I found a GM Service Bulletin 19-NA-078 dated January 2020 that found issues with these tires. The vehicle's alignment was fixed and that problem seemed to go away. The vehicle was serviced on October 29, 2021 and I was told new tires were needed before winter driving. The tread measurement was 5/32". I told the service department that I wanted to talk to Michelin about this because I felt their tires should last longer. On October 29, the vehicle had 13,332 miles on it. I spoke to a Michelin representative on Monday, November 8th after scanning and emailing in the service records from October 29th showing the tread measurement to be 5/32". The Michelin representative acknowledged that they did have the service records and the only thing needed was a phone call from Bergstrom - Middleton WI, an authorized Michelin dealer. Bergstrom was confident additional information would be needed on the tires and asked that I schedule an appointment to come back in with the vehicle. I did that today. Today I was told by Bergstrom that nothing could be done because the tires were at 5/32". The current mileage on my vehicle is less than 14,000 miles and all 4 of these tires need to be replaced. It appears from what I could find on the internet, a "safe tire" is one that has at least 6/32" tire tread so these tires, which I might add should not have worn out at 14,000 miles, are no longer safe. What boggles my mind is that this has been a known issue with these tires since January 2020, before I even purchased the vehicle. I feel mislead and given the run-around by GM and Michelin. Consumer stated Michelin has agreed to cover 70% of new tires. Consumer would like to close the case.

    When I placed my car in park, I received a SHIFT TO PARK warning. I was unable to shut the car off. I had to return home because I was unable to leave my car. Upon returning home, I was still unable to turn off my car. I had to keep restarting, going in reverse, back in drive, then to park. Kept receiving the message for over an hour. I was trapped in my car, unable to turn it off or lock it. Took it to dealership and they are aware of the problem, but no recall has been issued. How can this be legal?? I had to repair the car due to the fact that I felt unsafe to go any where. My bumper to bumper expired in 2022 and this is not covered on the 6 year warranty. My car only has 37,196 miles. Is there anything you can do? Also if a recall is issued, will I be notified?

    My 2019 Blazer gave a Steering Assist warning on 2 Nov 2024. I was aware of a recall for other Blazers but for some reason my VIN was not among those recalled. I took it to the dealership on 6 Nov 2024. The dealership has determined that the issue is indeed the same issue with those other Blazers that have been recalled but refuses to include my car in the recall because the VIN number wasn't originally among that recall. I was told that the car needed anew temperature gage and that they would have to order it, however, the component was available outside of the dealership. I paid for the diagnostics and the part, being told that the light(s) would stay on, I would still be able to drive it and that I would receive a call when the part came in. It is my understanding that the steering assist reduced can affect the power steering and essentially revert back to manual power steering, potentially causing a loss of control while driving and increasing the risk of accidents. There were no warnings of the steering failure assist warning. It just appeared on Nov 2, 2024 at 1130am. About 1240pm I noticed that the temp gage was inop and the check engine light was now illuminated. I contend that because GM has already identified the thermostat issue serious enough to do a recall, then all Blazers with that recall issue, VIN number aside, should be given the same consideration and not have to pay for something that GM has already taken responsibility for. The dealership however does not agree for the simple fact that the VIN was not identified in the original recall.

    I leased this car October 2019 and I had to tow the car to the dealership on December 12, 2019 for an electrical issue, as the car would not start. In June 2023 with 35,700 miles, I was driving the car when an error messages flashed on the dashboard. First message was to put the car in shift/neutral and immediately I was unable to move the shifter, the break got hard under my foot and the car "STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD". Then it kept flashing the following messages "SERVICE ESC" and "INFORMATION - ALL WHEEL DRIVE OFF" and the starter light remained "GREEN". I towed the car to the dealership, however, it took them a week to check the car and as a result the battery died and they missed the "Error Messages and CODES". Without the accurate codes, I was told I had to replace the battery and starter. When I picked up the car the air condition wasn't working, so I had to replace the compressor!!! I was very afraid to drive the car and I had it parked at home for some time. My husband and friends kept encouraging me to drive it etc. Eventually, I gave in and I started to drive the car, but still stressed and afraid and praying the car will not shut off again. The trauma of the car stopping so suddenly in the middle of the road and there was nothing I could have done - is very SCARY. I am just thankful that I was not on a highway when this happened - I could have been killed. However, I decided to drive the car and I now have 38,119 miles on the car. I had to take it to the dealership again on October 24, 2023, as when I park the car, although the shifter is in Park, the dashboard is telling me to put in in park and the Starter button will not turn off. I was advised by the dealership that I need to change the "Shifter Assembly" No one can tell me why the car stopped while driving in the middle of the road and I do not feel safe in this car anymore. I am just changing all the parts in this car one by one!!!

    Hi My wife arrived home from work and put the truck in park. A message came up on the instrument panel saying shift to park and would not let her shut the vehicle off. I went out could not figure out what was going on because the truck was clearly in park. After moving the gear shift around the message went away and I was able to shut off the truck. A couple of days later when she got to work, it did it again. Moving the gear shift around turned it off. I took the truck to the dealer 10/18/23 and inquired about a recall for this because so many people are having the same issue, on several GM makes. No recall and I had to pay close to $572.99 for them to replace the gear shift assembly. We just bought the truck in Feb of 23 and paid cash. $30.000. At time of purchase the truck had 21000 miles.

    Initially received Stabilitrak dash warning when brakes were applied for longer than 30 seconds (ie., stop light) for several days with no SEL. Then, while driving along a secondary highway at approximately 60mph, all dash lights lit up, power steering failed, power brake assist failed, and vehicle started stumbling. Pulled to side of road and vehicle shut off. Performed restart and was able to complete drive home (approx 3 miles). Upon arrival and shutting off vehicle, all dash lights illuminated then shut off. Vehicle would not start after (no click, no turnover, indicating failed battery). Attempted to charge/maintain battery but battery charger indicated sulfated battery. Multimeter showd 7.5V. Replaced battery and car started normally but all computer functions were reset to factory defaults. The failure of the power steering and brakes due to a faulty battery is an extreme safety issue. The fact that the battery is only 3 years old and internally corroded to the point it can't be charged is both disappointing and an additional safety hazard.

    Here are the problems I've been facing: 1. Shift to Park Error: My Blazer often displays a "Shift to Park" message, even when the vehicle is already in the park position. This happens randomly and has no discernible pattern. As a result, the vehicle won't turn off, and I'm forced to repeatedly shift back and forth and apply excessive force to engage the park mode. 2. Steering Assist Reduced Message and Cold Temperature Gauge: Another recurring issue is the appearance of a "Steering Assist Reduced" message. At the same time, the temperature gauge gets stuck at the cold position, and the check engine light remains on. This seems to be a common problem among Blazer owners and requires immediate attention through a recall. 3. Fuel-Related Acceleration Problem: I've noticed a fuel-related problem that affects acceleration. The vehicle experiences sudden slowdowns, with the RPMs dropping, even when I maintain a steady throttle position. Then, out of nowhere, the Blazer regains speed and accelerates. This unpredictable behavior is dangerous and needs to be addressed immediately. 4. Random Loss of Power Steering and Power Brakes: On several occasions, my Blazer has lost power steering and power brakes without any warning. It's incredibly unnerving and puts both the driver and others on the road at risk. It's important to note that my Blazer is well-maintained and has less than 60,000 miles on it. These issues should not be happening under these circumstances. I strongly believe that these problems require the attention of the manufacturer, and I urge them to initiate recalls to rectify these safety concerns.

    When placing the vehicle in the park position and attempting to shut the vehicle off with the push button my DIC flashes a message stating to 'shift vehicle into park'. I have to move the shifter from park to another gear several times in order to keep this from appearing and allowing me to turn my vehicle off. I can take up to 5-6 times before I can get the vehicle to allow me to turn it off. I'm not really sure if it is or isn't in park even when I do this at that point. I have had this happen on multiple occasions over multiple months.
