NHTSA 5-Star Safety Rating
On the 2024 Chevrolet Blazer, the most common complaint pattern centers on the automatic emergency braking system, which accounts for roughly a quarter of all owner reports. Owners frequently describe the system activating unexpectedly at low speeds, often in parking lots or light traffic, with no visible obstacle present. The braking response is described as sudden and forceful. The electrical system is the next most-reported area, with owners describing the instrument cluster and infotainment screen going dark while driving, sometimes simultaneously, before rebooting on their own after about 30 to 60 seconds. A smaller but notable group of service brake complaints also appears in the data. Separately, a few owners mention the charge port door motor failing to respond reliably, leaving them unable to open the port to charge the vehicle.

By System
The 2024 Chevrolet Blazer has 5 recalls, the most serious affecting EV models: a front lower control arm can fracture and cause sudden loss of steering control, and rear electric motor wiring can short and cut drive power without warning.
The parking brake wiring harness on EV models can corrode or become damaged, causing the parking brake to engage unexpectedly while driving or fail to hold the vehicle when parked, creating a rollaway risk. It is worth noting that a prior repair attempt for this issue did not fully resolve the problem for some vehicles. On the structural side, door strikers across both standard and EV trims can fracture and allow a door to swing open while the vehicle is moving.
