Comparison to all vehicles.  This plot shows RSC safety scores on the horizontal axis vs. the number of vehicles with each safety score (depicted by bar height and percentages at the bottom). Colors reflect vehicle safety, ranging from red (not that safe) to green (safer). For reference, a score of 0 implies a 0.15% chance of driver death (13% chance of driver injury) over 15 years, and a score of 100 reflects a 0.016% chance (1.4% chance of driver injury). The 2022 Chevrolet Blazer has a score of 86, implying a 0.034% chance of driver death (3.1% chance of injury). If equipped with optional advanced driver safety features, the chance of death falls to 0.03%, and the chance of injury falls to 2.6%.

We estimate that the 2022 Chevrolet Blazer has a vehicle lifetime fatality chance of 0.0344% and a vehicle lifetime injury chance of 3.9273%, meaning the average driver has a 0.0344% chance of dying in an accident if they drive the car under regular conditions for fifteen years, and a 3.9273% chance of being injured.

Active safety features with Chevrolet's Chevy Safety Assist can substantially reduce the risks of harm to vehicle occupants by preventing severe accidents. All trims and versions of the 2022 Chevrolet Blazer include the following active safety systems: Forward Collision Alert (FCA) and Automatic Emergency Braking with Front Pedestrian Braking. Optional safety features on the 2022 Chevrolet Blazer which we recommend include Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning and Blind Spot Monitoring.

Another vehicle feature may make a vehicle safer, even if not at the forefront of technological advances. Optional side mirror turn signals alert others of your intention to turn or switch lanes allowing them to react accordingly, which can prevent accidents caused by not seeing a vehicle in the blind spot.
