| 2002 s-10 blazer 4wd concern first let me say i have not changed the drivers door pins and bushings even through i knew they were bad. the door closes and locks on the door striker than mounts to the vehicle side post. here is what happened, which at a service center getting the transmission serviced and replacing the 4 wd drive shaft, i returned to pick my car up. the door would not close and latch, upon further investigation, the entire door striker assembly fractured the side post metal and pushed into the sidepost assembly. this prevented the door from latching. i went to a chevy dealership in gresham, oregon, we looked at the design, the door striker is only mounted to the sheetmetal with a metal backing support behind it. my question is, how did this vehicle pass any kind of side impact test with this design? the only thing keeping the door from flying open is what i described above. i am shocked that the door striker is not secured to a steel post of some kind. i'm going to take some digital pictures of the striker assembly to keep incase you are interested in looking at them. *tr | |||

| A few weeks ago driving home from work in a 2002 chevrolet blazer, and coming around corner the door hook and caused the door to open. took vehicle to dealer, and they said to take it back to the dealer (sun chevrolet), and they said it wasn't their fault because she didn't lubricate the door once a month. contacts husband welded the door hook back on, but now the door will not completely shut, causing the lights to stay on and the battery to run down. the automobile manual did not state for contact to lubricate doors once a month. the passenger side door is now doing the same thing. the back gate will not open either.*ak | |||

| Paint is peeling between at the outer edges at the license plate housing, where it comes in contact with the lift gate. gray primer is already exposed. i have inspected 2002 trail blazers and envoys throughout the state and surrounidng states and all reveal the same problem. owners need to be aware of this situation due to premature rust on the lift gate. it is sad that a brand new vehicle has a paint problem, before it is even driven from the lot and gm wants to paint the lower exterior of the lift gate and i feel the complete left gate should be stripped and refinished.*ak | |||
