As GM Authority previously reported, certain units of the Chevy Blazer, along with several other Chevy models, were built without the Rear Park Assist feature. Now, GM Authority has learned that dealer retrofits for affected 2022 model-year Blazer units are under way.
Affected 2022 Chevy Blazer examples built without the Rear Park Assist (RPO code UD7) feature can now have a retrofit performed. Before the limited availability, this feature was optional on 2LT trim levels, and equipped as standard fare on 3LT, RS and Premier trims.
According to General Motors, this limited availability was due to the worldwide semiconductor shortage, and began affecting Blazer models from December 20th, 2021 production and onwards. Affected units were indicated as such with RPO code 00Y on the window sticker.
It’s worth noting that this constraint also affected the 2023 Chevy Blazer. However, no retrofit is offered for 2023 model-year vehicles.
It’s worth noting that there were many GM vehicles affected by this constriction, including:
- 2022 Buick Enclave
- 2023 Buick Enclave
- 2022 Cadillac XT4

As a reminder, the Chevy Blazer is offered with the turbocharged 2.0L I4 LSY gasoline engine, which is rated at 228 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, as well as the naturally aspirated 3.6L V6 LGX gasoline engine, which is rated at 308 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque. Both powerplant options are paired with the GM nine-speed automatic transmission, while FWD is standard and AWD is optional.
Under the skin, the Blazer rides on the GM C1 platform. Meanwhile, production takes place at the GM Ramos Arizpe plant in Mexico.
