The ac completely doesn\u2019t work causing potential for sensitive, elderly, or young children and pets to overheat inside, it\u2019s significant risk of injury or death from the hot summer temperatures. The engine coolant temperature gauge is all the way down on C position which isn\u2019t registering how hot/cold the engine gets potentially causing damage to the vehicle and a total loss of the vehicle entirely due to damage from the engine overheating.  GM sent out letters to 2021 blazer owners which included a special coverage number N252508350 applying to people with this year having this problem and they have until 2036 or 150,009 mi to get the repairs made free of charge, they just bring the document with the special repair codes to the dealer and they fix it free of charge. After doing research online, this problem is affecting all years of the 2019+ blazers with the 3.6L V6 engine AND other known problems with other models and years of their other lineup of cars, it\u2019s very widespread across their platforms. So what are people supposed to do when it isn\u2019t the 2021 year? Pay an $800+ repair bill to GM when they KNOW it\u2019s more widespread than just this year/make? This is a scam. I can\u2019t even do the repair myself because I\u2019m having trouble finding the correct parts online and not only that the repair is extensive, the whole top half of the engine needs to be taken apart just to get to the thermostat, we\u2019re talking the airbox and intake manifold, all the plastic parts and shrouds and sensors covering engine, the fuel rail and injectors, pipes and clamps, engine coolant needs drained and refilled. It\u2019s a major fix. I\u2019m reporting this complaint to raise awareness and hopefully GM will do the right thing.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2019","productMake":"CHEVROLET","productModel":"BLAZER","manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC"}]}]}
