Consumer Description

BACK IN 8/04 TOOK CAR TO DEALER BECAUSE BLAZER WOULDN'T START ALL THE TIME,NO IDIOT LIGHTS,JUST CRANK. DEALER INSTALLED STARTER RELAY SWITCH AND ADVISE TO GET NEW KEY, NOT REAL FIX,MAYBE IGNITION SWITCH NEEDS TO BE REPLACE, MAYBE KEY WILL HELP. PROBLEMS CONTINUES IMMEDIATELY, TRY NEW KEY, PROBLEMS THE SAME BUT IN 11/05 IT IS HAPPENING MORE FREQUENT THEN ON 12/02/05 WON'T START AT ALL. TOW TO DEALER, TELLS ME I NEED NEW IGNITION SWITCH,TELL OK DO IT. NEXT DAY I GO TO PICK UP AND CAR NOT READY,DIFFERENT PROBLEM, WE FOUND WIRING HARNESS MELTED. WIRING HARNESS IS FOR WIPERS AND IGNITION. BACK IN 02/04 HAD WIPER BOARD REPLACE BECAUSE OF SHORT. BOARD WAS REPLACED BECAUSE I GOT A LETTER FROM GENERAL MOTORS STATING BAD WIPER BOARD,SAFETY ISSUE,REPLACE FOR FREE. SO DEALER HAS CHARGED ME FOR A STARTER RELAY AND WIRING HARNESS WHEN I THINK IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN WIPER BOARD ISSUE THAT GM ADMITS TO. DEALER HAS CHARGED OVER $600.00 AND I DON'T KNOW IF CAR WILL BURN IN FUTURE. *NM
