ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT CLUSTER/PANEL
APPROXIMATELY 1 1/2 MONTHS AGO MY SPEEDOMETER WENT OUT ON MY GMC 2004 ENVOY. I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE PERSON HELPING ME SAID THAT THEY GET ALOT OF REPAIR REQUESTS FOR THE SPEEDOMETERS GOING OUT ON THE GMC'S. SO I STATED IF THIS IS AN OFTEN OCCURRENCE IT APPEARS TO ME THAT IT SHOULD BE A NATIONAL RECALL BEING THAT THIS SEEMS TO OCCUR ALOT. WHEN I GOT HOME I WENT ON LINE TO PULL THE REVIEWS AND TO SEE WHAT OTHERS WERE TALKING ABOUT. THAT IS WHEN I NOTICED THAT A I WAS NOT THE ONLY CUSTOMER WITH THIS PROBLEM. ALSO, WHEN I WENT ONTO MY IPHONE APPLICATION TO SEE IF I COULD FIND ANYTHING THAT COULD ASSIST ME BEING THAT I WAS GOING OUT OF TOWN I FOUND AN APPLICATION AND ONE OF THE PEOPLE POSTING A REVIEW WAS A GUY WHO WAS OUT OF TOWN AND HIS SPEEDOMETER WENT OUT AND HE TOO WAS ABLE TO FIND THE SAME SPEEDOMETER THAT I HAD TO USE IN ORDER FOR HIM TO GET BACK TO WHERE HE WAS GOING. AS A CUSTOMER I FEEL THAT IF THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT IS OCCURRING AT THE 35,000-45,000 MARK OF THESE VEHICLES THEN IT SHOULD BE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE MANUFACTURER TO MAKE GOOD ON THIS MALFUNCTION. MY CAR IS NOT QUITE 5 YEARS AND I ONLY HAVE APPROXIMATELY 42,500 MILES ON MY TRUCK. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT CLUSTER/PANEL
SPEEDOMETER STARTED STICKING, WHEN TURNED OFF AND BACK ON WOULD CORRECT THIS FOR A SHORT TIME. AFTER A WHILE SPEEDOMETER SHOWED I WAS GOING 90 MPH. SINCE THIS, MY SPEEDOMETER COMPLETELY STOPPED. (ALTHOUGH,YESTERDAY WHEN I LOOKED AT MY SPEEDOMETER IT DID SHOW 50 MPH THEN WENT BACK TO ZERO) I WAS ALSO TOLD THIS WAS A FAULTY STEPPER MOTOR. I DON'T FEEL THAT I SHOULD PAY $250 TO HAVE A $25 MOTOR INSTALLED WHEN THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A MANUFACTURING DEFECT. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 GMC ENVOY. WHILE DRVING 20 MPH THE SPEEDOMETER STOPPED WORKING. THE DEALER STATED THAT THEY ASSUMED IT WAS A PART OF THE MANUFACTURERS RECALL AND REPAIRED THE VEHICLE. THE DEALER CONFIRMED AFTER THE REPAIRS WERE MADE THAT THE VEHCLE WAS NOT WITHIN THE RECALL VIN RANGE. THE DEALER HAS BILLED THE CONTACT FOR THE REPAIRS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 52,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 55,000.

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I OWN A 2003 GMC ENVOY XLT SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT IS ON RETURNED THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THIS IS A CRACKED FUEL TANK. DEALER SHOWED ME WHERE THE FUEL WAS LEAKING IT WAS LEAKING ON A WELD THAT ATTACHES THE FILLER HOSE TO THE FUEL TANK. THIS CERTAINLY ISN'T A WEARABLE PART AND IT DOESN'T RECEIVE MUCH CORROSION DUE TO BEING A FLORIDA CAR. THERE ARE MANY FORUMS ON THE INTERNET AND MANY VEHICLE OWNERS THAT HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. I WOULD THINK THAT A FUEL LEAK MAY LEAD TO EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS SITUATION FOR ALL MOTOR VEHICLE OWNERS. I UNDERSTAND AN INVESTIGATION HAS BEEN RAISED AND CLOSED. IT IS UNFAIR THAT GM MANUFACTURES A FUEL TANK THAT COULD BE A RISK TO ITS CONSUMERS. THIS CASE NEEDS TO BE REVISITED AND REOPENED. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
SMELL OF GAS INSIDE OF VEHICLE, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON AND NOTICE OF GAS ON GARAGE FLOOR. TOOK VEHICLE TO A MECHANIC AND FOUND OUT THAT THE GAS TANK WAS LEAKING AROUND THE NECK OF THE TANK WHERE THE REFILL HOSE CONNECTS. FOUND OUT THAT CHEVROLET AND GMC HAD A SPECIAL COVERAGE ADJUSTMENT # 07099A ON THIS PROBLEM. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND I WAS TOLD THAT MY VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED ON THIS SCA BECAUSE OF THE VIN NUMBER. I CALLED GMC CUSTOMER SERVICE ON RECALLS AND I WAS TOLD THE SAME THING. THE DEALER AGREED TO PAY 2/3'S OF THE BILL AND I WILL HAVE TO PAY 1/3 OF IT. ON THE SCA SHEET IT LIST THE FOLLOWING FOR MY VEHICLE. THE LAST 8 DIGITS OF THE VIN STARTING WITH 46100001 TO 46116824. MY VEHICLE IS LEAKING SO BADLY THAT I CAN SMELL GAS INSIDE OF THE VEHICLE ALL THE TIME. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. ALSO I PARK MY VEHICLE IN MY GARAGE ALL THE TIME AND THIS IS DANGEROUS. I THINK THAT ALL OF THE 2002 TO 2004 CHEVROLET TRAIL BLAZERS AND GMC ENVOYS WILL HAVE THIS PROBLEM WITH THE LEAKING GAS TANKS. THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE DESIGN OF THE TANK. I WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE TECH AT THE DEALER THAT THEY USE TO HAVE A LOT OF PROBLEMS WITH THE GAS TANKS. HE SAID THAT SINCE THEY HAVE CHANGED THE TANKS OUT ON THE COVERED VEHICLES THAT THEY HAVE HAD NONE OF THE VEHICLES BACK IN WITH LEAKING GAS TANKS. THIS IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED. SOME PEOPLE WOULD NOT NOTICE THIS PROBLEM AND IF THEY HAVE AN ACCIDENT THIS COULD CAUSE MORE INJURIES AND POSSIBLE DEATHS. THIS COULD ALSO CAUSE AN EXPLOSION AROUND SPARKS OR STATIC IN SOMEONE'S GARAGE. *TR

I HAVE A 2004 GMC ENVOY IN WHICH THE SPEEDOMETER HAS STOPPED WORKING. I RESEARCHED THIS ON THE INTERNET AND IT IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE. I ALMOST CAUSED A WRECK BECAUSE THE SPEEDOMETER SAID I WAS GOING FASTER THAN I REALLY WAS AND THE CARS BEHIND ME ALMOST RAN INTO ME. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT I FEEL SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED. COULD YOU PLEASE ASSIST W ANY RECALL MEASURES. IT COSTS OVER 500.00 TO REPLACE THIS. *TR

RECEIVED A SPECIAL CASE 07076 LETTER FROM GMC. TOOK 2004 GMC LETTER INDICATED IF YOU WERE NOT SEEING SYMPTOMS YOU ARE NOT TO TAKE IT TO DEALER. I ALREADY HAVE REGULAR MAINTENANCE SERVICE SCHEDULED AND BROUGHT THIS SC07076 LETTER TO DEALER TO INQUIRE ABOUT CASE. DEALER SERVICE ADVISOR RECOMMENDED TO HAVE THIS SC07076 SERVICE PERFORMED AS PREVENTIVELY MAINTENANCE EVENTHOUGH THE VEHICLE WAS NOT EXHIBITING THESE SYMPTOMS. THE SERVICE WAS PERFORMED AND IMMEDIATELY THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SHOW SYMPTOMS IN THE EXACT NATURE THAT WAS DESCRIBED IN THE SC07076 LETTER, FUEL FUMES, FUEL LEAK WHEN FILLING, SES LIGHT ON... TOOK VEHICLE BACK AND DEALER INDICATED THAT THEY WILL NOT PERFORM FREE SERVICE EVENTHOUGH IT SHOULD STILL BE COVERED UNDER STIPULATIONS OF SC07076 LETTER AS WELL AS THEIR WARRANTY POLICY. CURRENTLY THIS IS A HEALTH AND SAFETY ISSUES SINCE MY CHILDREN AND I GET HEADACHES FROM GAS FUMES WHEN NEEDING TO USE THE VEHICLE AS FEAR FOR OUR SAFETY SINCE FUEL LEAKS FROM GAS TANK NOW. I AM TRYING TO PREVENT ANY INJURY OR DEATH, MINE, A PASSENGER OR NEAR BY PERSON. APPARENTLY GMC AND DEALER ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEMS BUT NOW IGNORE THE SITUATION DUE TO THEIR CURRENT FINANCIAL SITUATION. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 GMC ENVOY I6 THAT I PURCHASED IN MARCH 2005. NOVEMBER OF 2006 WE REPLACED THE FUEL SENSOR THAT IS UNDER WARRANTY DUE TO WHEN I WOULD FILL UP THE GAS TANK THE GAUGE WOULD GO TO EMPTY AND WOULD EVENTUALLY MAKE IT TO FULL AFTER ABOUT 100 MILES DRIVEN. NOW A YEAR AND A HALF LATER THE SAME THING IS HAPPENING AND THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP HAS CONFIRMED IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND WOULD COST AROUND $1100 TO FIX THE ISSUE THAT SHOULD HAVE ALREADY OF BEEN FIXED THE FIRST TIME I TOOK IT IN. *TR

THERE WAS NO WARNING AT ALL THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM OR WAS GOING TO BE A PROBLEM ,IT JUST BROKE..DEALER SAYS NEED NEW TRANSMISSION.. APPARENTLY GM HAS A SUN GEAR ISSUE WITH THIS TYPE OF TRANSMISSION.. *TR
