I fear this will leave me stranded and my only course of action will be to rip the door off in anger. Many others are experiencing this issue. Chevy needs to address this.”Owner report · Unknown Or Other · Mar 2026
“Driver Information Centre (DIC) and Infotainment go dark. This has happened twice now over the last 2 months. While driving suddenly the infotainment goes blank and loses the radio and then the DIC follows by going blank (dark). So I was left with no speed indication. The car drives normally during that time. After 30 seconds to a minute the screens come back on as if it rebooted while driving.”Owner report · Electrical System · Mar 2026
“On February 4, 2026, my wife drove to the bank, a trip of about 10 to 15 minutes, and turned off the car at the ATM. When she tried to leave, the vehicle wouldn't start.

It is currently at a Chevrolet dealership for diagnosis.”Owner report · Electrical System,Engine · Feb 2026
“Radiator leak from the bottom left corner (driver side). Slow leak over time, no visible damage (per the service department), likely a manufacturing issue. Entire radiator required replacement.”Owner report · Engine · Jan 2026
“I recently purchased this EV Blazer and one day I went to charge it at a fast charging station. It would not charge and so I got it to the Chevy dealership in Yakima, WA. They told me that the battery itself had been physically damaged due to the location of the battery and it not being protected. I have no recollection of ever hitting anything and there was no visible or damage to any other part of the Blazer. It seem to me that the location of the battery and it being unprotected is a major design flaw.”Owner report · Fuel/Propulsion System · Jan 2026
