The vehicle was a nice black color and was definitely a reliable automobile. Not only this, but it was particularly cheap for a mid-sized SUV and gas mileage, while a little rough, was affordable for a high school/college age student trying to make ends meet. Overall, the car lasted four years in my car with a multitude of repairs--most of which are expected from an old car like the breaks, tires, spark plugs, etc.

It was the former owner who is responsible. The 2nd time it was driven, there was a blow out. This caused the axil to bend. It had to be replaced. Had to put new tires on the blazer after being told they were in good shape. All speakers but one were blown. It overheated. It makes loud notice when driving. You hear all road noise. It is not safe on the highway or interstate. Only good for driving very local. It has just been a money pit. The air conditioning doesn't work. The price to replace that is around $300 just for the part. That does not include the labor for the work. Unfortunately, the former owner was a smoker and you can still smell a faint smoke odor.
