2000 Chevrolet Blazer recalls
Exterior lighting: brake lights, switch
NHTSA campaign 08V231000 · reported May 21, 2008 · GENERAL MOTORS CORP. · 5,862 vehicles potentially affected
- The problem
- General motors is recalling 5,862 my 2000-2002 chevrolet blazer, my 2000-2001 gmc jimmy, and my 2000 oldsmobile bravada sport utility vehicles. The multifunction switch could develop an open circuit condition that results in the stop lamps and the rear hazard lamps becoming inoperative. The center high mounted stop lamp and turn signal functions are not affected.
- The risk
- The loss of stop lamps and rear hazard lamps could fail to warn a following driver that the vehicle is braking and/or is stopped and could result in a crash.
- The fix
- Dealers will replace the hazard switch carrier. The recall began on june 17, 2008. Owners may contact chevrolet at 1-800-630-2438, gmc at 1-866-996-9463, or oldsmobile at 1-800-630-6537, or through their website at <a href=http://www.gmownercenter.com>http://www.gmownercenter.com</a> . Note: this campaign is an expansion of a previous recall (please see 01v364).

Seat belts
NHTSA campaign 00V228003 · reported August 7, 2000 · GENERAL MOTORS CORP. · 156,305 vehicles potentially affected
- The problem
- Vehicle description: passenger vehicles, light duty trucks, sport utility vehicles, and mini vans equipped with trw seat belt buckle assemblies. The buckle base of these seat belt assemblies were not properly heat treated and therefore do not pass the load bearing requirement of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 209, "seat belt assemblies."
- The risk
- In the event of a vehicle crash, the occupant may not be properly restrained.
- The fix
- Dealers will inspect the vehicle's safety belt buckle assembly date codes and, if necessary, will replace any safety belt buckle assembly.
Service brakes, hydraulic: antilock/traction control/electronic limited slip
NHTSA campaign 99V220000 · reported August 11, 1999 · GENERAL MOTORS CORP. · 3,947 vehicles potentially affected
- The problem
- Vehicle description: s -trucks equipped with 2 wheel drive. These vehicles may have had the right-hand antilock brake system (ABS) module feed pipe and/or brake crossover pipe tube nuts tightened without seating the pipe-flared-ends enough to withstand normal assembly and vehicle inputs without partially unseating. This does not comply with requirements of FMVSS no. 105, "hydraulic service brake normal, emergency, and park braking performance."
- The risk
- If this occurred, the seating seal could be broken during vehicle assembly, or from early road inputs or brake fluid cycling, and a leak could occur increasing the brake stopping distance.
- The fix
- Dealers will inspect the brake pipe union for signs of brake fluid, and if necessary, install a new brake pipe union.
