The Chevrolet Blazer EV has suffered an additional setback as the model is getting recalled alongside its ICE-powered counterpart.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, a handful of 2024 Blazer, Blazer EV, Equinox, and GMC Terrain crossovers have door strikers that may well fracture. If this happens, the door could open unexpectedly.

The door strikers have been created by the Brano Group and have been not appropriately heat-treated to meet GM’s hardness specifications. As a outcome, they could potentially fail.

The problem was found following a striker on a 2024 Equinox fractured throughout a “routine side door adjustment” at the San Luis Potosi assembly plant in Mexico. This kicked off an investigation that located 3 strikers fractured throughout side door adjustment at the plant, whilst an additional fractured prior to installation.

GM is not conscious of any incidents occurring outdoors of the plant and only 265 cars are impacted by the recall. A vast majority of them are Equinoxes as only 1 Blazer and 1 Blazer EV are getting recalled.


Owners will be notified in February and they’ll be capable to take their automobile to a dealer, who will replace all 4 door strikers and attaching bolts, cost-free of charge.
