2002 Chevrolet Blazer Complaints

THE INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET IS LEAKING THE INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET WAS LEAKING ON MY CHEVROLET SILVERADO LAST YEAR I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY 4 ASE CERTIFIED MECHANICS THAT CHEVROLETS HAVE EXTREMELY TOO MANY INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET LEAKING PROBLEMS BECAUSE OF THE DEXRON ANTIFREEZE AND THE GASKETS THEY USED. *TR

THE FUEL GAUGE SENSOR SYSTEM BECOMES FAULTY AFTER 74,000 MILES. MINE STARTED AT APPROX. 90,000 MILES. I HAVE LEARNED ONLINE THIS HAS HAPPENED TO MANY 2002 BLAZER OWNERS & GM WILL NOT ADDRESS THE ISSUE. BECAUSE OF THIS THE CARS WILL NOT PASS EMISSIONS DUE TO A DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE & COSTS OVER $1,000 TO REPAIR ON A 12 YEAR OLD VEHICLE EVEN THOUGHT IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE ACTUAL EMISSION OUTPUT. IT IS ONE THING TO HAVE PARTS BREAK DOWN WITH AGE AND QUITE ANOTHER TO HAVE THE SAME PART BECOME FAULTY ON A LARGE SCALE. I CANNOT RENEW MY PLATES DUE TO THE EMISSION FAILURE AND CANNOT AFFORD TO FIX A GAGE FOR A $1,000. GM NEEDS TO RECALL THE VEHICLES AND ADMIT THEIR FAULT USING A CHEAP FAULTY PART TO SAVE $$. I KNOW THIS MAY NOT BE A "SAFETY" CONCERN PER SAY BUT GM ADVISED ME TO MAKE A COMPLAINT WITH NHTSA. MY VEHICLE IS MY LIVELY HOOD & I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO. *TR
