Warranty

Derek1989 · 11-24-2008, 03:14 PM

I just went and test drove the blazer I was looking at and got the scoop on the warranty. The warranty is a 2 year, unlimited kilometer warranty. It covers the engine, transmission, front and rear ends and the transfer case. It is mostly "All lubricated parts". Is the warranty worth getting, or is it pretty restricted? It also covers all seals and gasgets (which I have alot of trouble with so I think I should probably get it). The truck is in amazing shape, I don't think it would give me much trouble for 2 years but it never hurts to be safe.

what year?

Derek1989 · 11-24-2008, 03:19 PM

It's a 2000 blazer with 138 000 km (or about 83 000 miles)

get the warrenty, you'll be replacing u-joints, oil pan gaskets and oil cooler lines soon if it's anything like my sister's blazer.

Derek1989 · 11-24-2008, 03:23 PM

Yeah my father said the U-joints went in his blazer as well. The gaskets just went in my car and the repair cost was ridiculous. Are the U-joints covered under the warranty? (I'm not much of a mechanic)

sounds like a powertrain warrenty from what you described, so yeah, should be.

Derek1989 · 11-24-2008, 03:25 PM

Yeah it is a powertrain. Thanks for the advice. If I can get the cash by this weekend I'm buying the truck on saturday.

Get it maybe this could be the best truck you ever had. Run a Car-fax on it first see what repairs have been done & if it has been in a crash they should tell before you buy it.

ya I will get a history report done
