Why Chevrolet Blazer Drivers Choose Scott's Auto
Whether your Blazer is a vintage K5 or a brand-new crossover, you want a shop that can handle both — and won't pad the bill. At Scott's, the mechanic who diagnoses your Blazer does the repair, and you get a written estimate before any work begins. No service-advisor layer, no dealer hourly rate.
Old Trucks and New Crossovers Both
Few shops are comfortable with a carbureted K5 and a modern Blazer crossover. We've worked on the whole range and bring the right approach to each.
Body-on-Frame Suspension Experience
Older Blazers ride on truck suspension that takes a beating on Utah roads and trails. Shocks, struts, and front-end work are routine jobs for us.
Honest Assessment on Older 4x4s
If your K5 or S-10 Blazer needs more than it's worth, we'll tell you. If it's a solid truck that just needs a refresh, we'll tell you that too — no pressure.
Free Diagnosis on Every Blazer
We road test, scan for codes, and inspect your Blazer before recommending anything. You know the problem and the price before we start. No diagnostic fee.
When to Bring Your Chevrolet Blazer In
When a Blazer comes into our South Salt Lake shop, we road test it, scan for stored codes if the light is on, and inspect the cooling system, brakes, and suspension before recommending work. The issues below are the ones we see most across Blazer generations. If yours shows any of them, bring it in — the diagnosis is free.
Overheating — Cooling System Wear
Older Blazers with the 4.3L V6 and full-size V8s wear out water pumps, thermostats, and hoses with age and Utah heat. A climbing temperature gauge, coolant smell, or low coolant all point to the cooling system. We pressure-test it and replace the failed part before an overheat causes damage.
Learn more →Brake Wear and Grinding
Blazers are heavy vehicles, and the brakes do real work — especially on a crossover used for canyon trips or an older truck hauling gear. Pulsation, grinding, or longer stops all mean it's time. We inspect pads, rotors, and calipers and replace what's worn.
Learn more →Worn Shocks and Struts — Rough, Bouncy Ride
A Blazer that bounces over bumps, wallows in corners, or nose-dives under braking has tired dampers. Utah's rough roads and trails wear suspension faster. We inspect the full suspension and replace shocks or struts with the correct parts for your Blazer.
Learn more →Loud or Leaking Exhaust
Blazer exhaust systems take road salt, trail scrapes, and heat cycling. A new drone or rasp usually points to a cracked weld, failed gasket, or rusted-through section. We locate the leak and repair or replace only the affected part.
Learn more →Check Engine Light
Higher-mileage Blazers set O2 sensor, emissions, and catalyst-efficiency codes as parts age. We scan for codes, confirm the actual cause, and fix what needs fixing — not just clear the light so it returns next week.
Learn more →CV Axle Clicking on Front-Drive Crossovers
The modern Blazer crossover can develop a rhythmic clicking when turning — a worn CV joint. The boot cracks, grease escapes, and grit wears the joint. We replace the complete axle shaft for a more durable repair than a boot-only fix.

Utah's temperature swings, mountain roads, and high altitude put unique demands on your vehicle. Here's what we've learned from years of servicing Chevrolet Blazers in the Salt Lake Valley.
Older Blazers ride on truck suspension that takes a beating on Utah's rough roads and trails — have us inspect shocks, struts, and front-end components yearly so a small wear issue doesn't become a handling problem.
Utah road salt is hard on Blazer exhaust systems and brake lines. Rinse the underbody at a self-serve bay through the winter, and have us inspect the exhaust and brake hardware each spring.
Salt Lake's summer heat and altitude stress cooling systems on V6 and V8 Blazers. Before towing season or a hot canyon drive, have us check the water pump, hoses, and coolant condition so it doesn't overheat in slow traffic.
