I bought my 2003 Chevy Blazer, 2 years ago part of the GM Certified Used Vechicle Program. There is not much that did go wrong with compared to the others, but it is a newer vehicle.
But here is what I done:
-Had to replaced the gas cap. I believe the orginal one was swap with another during the transition from the first owner to me.
-Had to replace (2) O2 sensors, due to the check engine light being on and off. Any check engine light must be taken care of or it will haunt you when it comes to our state emission testing requirements.

-Got my radiator flushed, this year. After hearing about GM''s class action lawsuit with Dexcool. I decided not to wait around on that one.
-After over a year with starter problems, not being able to locate the problem, the starter got replaced. Being over 5 years old, and starting to act up over a 1 1/2 ago, for those who argue over OEM vs. aftermarket parts, I will give a thumbs up on aftermarket if my starter is problem free for over 4 years.
-I have a noise once a while when I get an increase in rpm''s and wet weather that going to need to be figured out.
-An oil leak in my front defferentioal will need to be fix sometime.

Otherwise its a good vehicle.

has anyone had trouble with the hose located behind the a/c pump that comes out of the intake manifold runs along the top then down the back of the motor my wife has a 99 v-6 that is leaking antifreeze out of this hose but it looks like a hydraulic hose fitting that goes into the intake

Sounds like you are describing the EGR supply tube which has nothing to do with antifreeze. If you would need help diagnosing your problem, please post a new thread in the 2nd Gen Tech section.

2000 2 door zr2

passenger seat handle
oil lines to filter (actually such a common problem their usually not covered under warranties)
button on talegate for glass has to be pushed like 8 times before it works
hood popper cable snapped but didnt have any sticking out to grab so i had to cut a hole in my grill to open it and just pulled the cable out of the sleeve and tied it in a loop and now it sticks out of my grill but im in the process of putting on locking hood pins
water leaking inside somewhere so the carpet under the back seat was always wet so it stunk
driverside window motor and power seat motors stopped working but they did spend about 6 hours under water
plastic tail gate panel screws the ones on the sides by the hinges broke the corners off the panel along with all of the ones at the salvage yards too
mirror switch half works same with the ones at the yards
spare tire holder dinted the body since the tire weighs so much
a/c leak
heater core filled with rust
bolts for seats and seat belts will NOT come out i actually melted the end of a tungsten bit on one after i broke about 5 bits and a stripped screw puller

other then that stuff you cant stop it from running they can take a beating and still drive
