2001 Chevrolet Blazer Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Overall, many owners are quite satisfied with the 2001 Chevrolet Blazer, praising its performance, off-road capabilities, and comfortable ride. They enjoyed features like the four-wheel drive and towing ability, noting it handles well in various conditions and has a sporty look. However, some drivers faced issues with gas mileage and reliability as the vehicle aged, with common complaints about plastic interior parts and maintenance costs."
I like this vehicle a lot. The 4 wheel drive has been of great use during all this snow that we have been having this year. I have not run into anything yet that it can't pull itself through. If you need a great 4 wheel vehicle for a really good price, Chevy should do just fine.
January 8, 2014Blazers sometimes have check engine light problems that goes off for no reason. Mine hates highways. The seats are comfortable, ride is nice. Takes corners like a boss. Outruns my friend's Honda. Gas mileage is average. Has good looks, nice interior. Takes the snow pretty decent for not being too heavy and having 2WD.
February 9, 2012I love my Blazer! It is awesome! I bought it on April 16, 2009 with 114,000 miles and it now has 137,000 and have only had a problem once(fuel pump went out in Arkansas)! I have done a lot of personalizing on it:leather seat covers, wood dash kit,steering wheel cover, dash cover, new floor mats, custom headlights and front turn signals(not shown in picture), side window vents, fender vents, taillight trim, etc. My Blazer rides pretty well for an SUV, pulls up to 4000 pounds, runs strong, handles well, has pretty good acceleration, and gets decent mpg. Some things I do not like about it: no four wheel drive, 2 doors, lot of plastic(rattles on rough roads), sloped rear window(cuts into cargo space). It does not require much maintenance, just change the oil and check the fluids and such. Main cost is the fuel, it gets lower 20's on the highway and upper teens in town. Not a good city car. Likes open road! AMEN! Some things I would like to do to it in include a grill guard, running boards, rims off an upper model four door Blazer, and possibly a better quality wood dash kit. I would definetly recommend a Chevy Blazer, good build quality, reliable, powerful, and fun to drive(especially in the country). Would recommend the four door model over the two door. Rear access can be ackward and leg room is a little tight for really tall people( I am 6'2" and it is just right).Overall the Blazer is a great vehicle and I am a proud owner!

September 23, 2010The acceleration, breaking and handling were surprisingly responsive. After a few years of driving it the body began to rattle and become dislodged! The gas mileage was a joke. The maintenance was not bad on the pocket so it was not a total loss.
August 2, 2009It has a lot of power for only being a 4.3L V6. I get over 20 mpg which makes me happy, especialy when I go offroading on the weekends. Which leads me to the point of it riding fairly low. This really shows when I am going through really beat up trails.
October 23, 2008Car ran well for the first 140k, then everything started to go, but the ride is fantastic, and it eats snow for breakfast! Over the past year, I had to replace the oil pump, 3 bearings (not cheap!), and the radiator. Overall, I'm pleased.
July 7, 2008Comfortable, great looking, drives like a sport sedan, and can haul a bit of cargo/speakers when necessary....
April 27, 2008i loved my car but it was expensive regarding gas. it was a comfortable ride and i enjoyed having the freedom of 4 wheel drive. i loved the sun roof and the cd player. it was a great car for what i needed at the time. i owed it for 5 years.
January 2, 2010great offroad vehicle if you dont abuse it.
June 14, 2008I bought my Extreme in 2001 brand new, and have not had 1 major problem. So when I paid it off in 2005, there was no reason to purchase another car.After saying all the money from no car-payments, and miles of road-trips to California. I fell in love with it all over again. It was worth every penny to rebuild, and upgrade the Vortex engine. It still has the original paint job, and the interior is flawless. My Exreme looks better then it did when I bought it brand new.To all the Camero's and Mustangs lovers (which you see every 3-5 cars), Don't come close to all the looks and compliments I get everyday rolling my ride. It is the last car I will purchase in a very long time, and with less then 20,000 miles on the rebuilt engine.I have no worries what so ever it will roll another 100,000 before I put it in the garage where it will sit until the day I die. NO WAY IN HELL..THERE IS NO SALE!
