Problems already

I tried filling it up today and it wont take gas, the gauge shows a 1.4 tank yet you fill it up, then click, put more in then click, put more in then click, no way does it have enough gas but it clicks like it does. Also had a dealer installed alarm and now the door rattles, not very happy about that.

maybe your gas guage is messed up and it really is on a full tank

thats what happend to my 2000 blazer
i thought i had a full tank when i bought it
drive it around and see how long it goes before it runs out of gas

before you do that though...call you cell phone company and get roadside assistance for like $3 a month....so when you run out of gas they bring you some more

Re: Problems already

Re: Problems already

I agree with rlith have had two blazers with that exact problem the sending unit was bad and had to be replaced its kinda expensive part and labor is not cheap but if its still under warranty take it to the dealer and be done with it

Re: Problems already

With the Door Rattling they probably broke one of the clips that holds it on or didn't fully clip it back in.

Re: Problems already

I dropped it off this morning, they said the fuel filler kneck needs to be replaced, its apartently bent so thats why it thinks its full all the time. They wont have the part untill Monday though.

Re: Problems already

Tell the dealership to keep the blazer until they can fix it and tell them to get you a free loaner. That's bull that it will be a week for a dealer part. Ugh.

Re: Problems already

My blazer did the same thing with only 150 or so miles on it, filler neck AND tank sensor.
From what I hear, if this happens it does it while under warranty.
