Owner-reported complaints filed with NHTSA, grouped by component

Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

What this page shows

Everything below is an owner-reported complaint submitted to NHTSA about the 2007 Chevrolet Blazer, grouped by the component NHTSA recorded on the report. These are not confirmed defects, and they are not recalls. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a category with more reports in it is not evidence that a part is defective.

Complaints are reports submitted by owners and drivers to NHTSA. They are not verified and do not establish that a defect exists.

HEADLIGHTS STOP WORKING SEVERAL TIMES WITH NO WARNING. DRIVERS SIDE POWER WINDOW HAS BEEN REPLACED 3 TIMES. ON THE HIGHWAY .IT IS VERY SCARY WHEN YOU LIGHTS QUIT WORKING. YOU HAVE TO TURN ON BRIGHTS TO BE ABLE TO SEE.

NHTSA ID 11110041 · filed Jul 7, 2018

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT SIMULTANEOUSLY WHILE I WAS DRIVING AT NIGHT. I PROCEEDED TO THE AUTO PARTS STORE, BOUGHT NEW BULBS AND CHANGED THEM OUT BUT THEY STILL DID NOT COME ON. ALL OTHER LIGHTS ARE WORKING INCLUDING THE HIGH BEAMS. I SEE THERE ARE RECALLS FOR THE SAME PROBLEM LISTED ONLINE FOR 2007 TB'S BUT WHEN I CHECKED WITH GM/BUICK I WAS INFORMED THAT MY VIN WAS NOT LISTED IN THE RECALL DUE TO IT NOT BEING ON THE PRODUCTION LINE AT A CERTAIN PLANT. YET WITH FURTHER RESEARCH THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER TB OWNERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE AS THE RECALLED VIN'S WHICH SHOULD SHOW THIS IS A PARTS ISSUE. I WAS REFERRED TO THE DEALERSHIP BY GM/BUICK A DIAGNOSTIC OF WHICH I WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR BECAUSE MY VEHICLE WAS ON A DIFFERENT PRODUCTION LINE FOR A PART THAT CLEARLY APPEARS TO BE DEFECTIVE! *TR
