Selected complaints filed with NHTSA by 1995 Chevrolet Blazer owners, lightly cleaned up (personal details are redacted by NHTSA).
We have been told by a number of repair shops that the frame is cracked and that the crack is the result of poor/defective workmanship by the manufacturer. The repairs have been estimated at or above $2500. Additionally, we have been told that we are lucky the crack in the frame was caught in the repair shop because the crack could have LED to a serious accident.
Fuse blew & was replaced. Fuse box sparked & sunvisor on the driver side with a vanity mirror started smoking near the hinge. Wires melted down & the sunvisor was disconnected. Malfunction occurred in hinge of sunvisor, wire cut in hinge and exposed to metal causing shortage and meltdown of wiring. Dealer to notify manufacturer on possible replacement.

The door hinges on s-10 blazers appear to be sagging.the paint around the hinge is cracking due to the stress. I have a few friends the are getting theirs fixed and was curiousto find out if there has been a campaign for correction.
Door locks have been replaced on 3 of the 4 doors because the locks jam and the door will not open with the key, remote or master control switch. The back left door is the only door where the lock has not jammed.
