  All down hill after this - 1996 Chevrolet Blazer
  By Kenny - February 24 - 1:39 am

  Well when I fist got it I thought oh man im in heaven. All the power I ever wanted but not too much. A good 4X4 for being so new. But just as it built up my hope it let me down time after time. So Im saying forget the bowties.

  This Blazer is OK - 1996 Chevrolet Blazer
  By stephen - November 28 - 3:08 pm

  I bought this 96 Blazer new and have found it to be very reliable. It now has 150,000 miles on it,and yes, Ive had to put some money toward repairs, but overall it has been a very good vehicle and Id buy another one in a heartbeat. It still runs great and it has never made me walk. Its very comfortable and the body is holding up nicely. Its been a great car!

  10 year slump - 1996 Chevrolet Blazer
  By jax1202 - January 22 - 5:22 pm

  Well, the Blazer is now 10 years old, I have only had it for 2 of them, but with in the last year I have had to get : All new tires ($500.00) a new radiator system ($1,400.00). I also have put in new shocks,The piece to move the seat back and forward was broke long ago, ... I need a new brake system, as well as a intake manifold gauge. The gas mileage isnt as bad as I expected for having a SUV though.

  Doomed from the factory - 1996 Chevrolet Blazer
  By bf23 - January 20 - 10:35 pm

  These Blazers have problems. Cooling problems, engine problems, 4wd problems. They are expensive to fix. Spent over 2000 dollars in 2 months on the cooling system. Almost all Blazers build up coolant sludge, and the cooling system immediatly starts to break down. Not worth it. Do yourself a favor and buy another car. The used sale price may be enticing, but the repairs are ridiculous. Its impossible to work on this car! Almost impossible to change the spark plug wires, and impossible to change the spark plugs. The drivers side has a steering rack running right by the plug, thus you cant get in there with a wrench.

  Cheap and Easy - 1996 Chevrolet Blazer
  By Jeff - August 9 - 12:46 pm

  I bought this vehicle used with 169k and have had no problems to date. I wanted a cheap SUV that was still in good condition. The body is good with no rust, the engine runs great, and the interior is still in very good condition. For $2,700, I know I got a great deal.

  Hope youre a mechanic! - 1996 Chevrolet Blazer
  By anonabombga - July 17 - 2:11 pm

  I bought this car four years ago and have had nothing but trouble. The air conditioning system is completly broken and stopped working three months after I bought it. I have replaced the radiator and thermostat twice. The brakes have always been difficult, and the transmission is slipping. The passenger seat recliner no longer works, and the rear door gets jammed all the time. It eats up gas and is constantly running hot.

  Great overall vehichle - 1996 Chevrolet Blazer
  By Frank - June 25 - 4:15 pm

  I just bought this SUV, and replaced the 4X4 buttons, the A/C controls, and the fuel pump assembly ( after 155000 miles you cant expect it to be perfect). The sound system works great, the vehicle now runs and drives great, and it looks great. Paint is still shiny after 155,000 miles and 9 years of driving. Gas mileage isnt the best, but driving an SUV, you cant expect to get 25 miles to the gallon either. I would reccomend this vehicle to a friend.

  Good drive, great looks - 1996 Chevrolet Blazer
  By ashbellini - March 28 - 6:47 pm

  We bought this car after almost a month of hunting. With two small children it was not my first choice of vehicles, but I have grown to love the roomy interior and reliability. Plus we constantly get compliments on the how nice it looks. Now that we are hunting for another car we first check out the other Blazers on the lot.
