FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
2005 GMC ENVOY THE FUEL GAGE READS "LOW FUEL" EVEN WHEN THE TANK IS FULL. I AM A MOTHER OF FOUR. I AM CONSTANTLY ON THE ROAD WITH MY CHILDREN. I AM VERY AFRAID OF RUNNING OUT OF GAS WHILE DRIVING THROUGH AN INTERSECTION OR BEING STRANDED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WITH MY CHILDREN. I CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY FOR SOMEONE TO 'FIGURE OUT' WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. I FEEL GMC SHOULD FIGURE IT OUT AND FIX IT. I KNOW I AM NOT THE ONLY PERSON WITH THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE DONE LOTS OF RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET AND I HAVE TALKED TO MANY OTHER ENVOY OWNERS IN MY TOWN WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
THE GAS GAUGE ON MY 2007 ENVOY HAS BEEN ACTING VERY ERRATIC LATELY. EACH TIME I FILL MY GAS TANK, THE GAUGE REMAINS AT EMPTY FOR MAYBE A DAY OR SO. EVENTUALLY IT GOES FROM EMPTY TO FULL AND BACK TO EMPTY SEVERAL MORE TIMES. SOONER OR LATER IT WILL REMAIN IN THE FULL POSITION AND SEEMS TO ACT NORMALLY. I HAVE ALSO NOTICED MY SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON FOR A DAY OR TWO AND FINALLY GOES OUT. THAT SEEMS TO HAPPEN AFTER I FILL MY GAS TANK. NOBODY AT THE DEALERSHIP SEEMS TO BE AWARE OF ANY PROBLEMS WITH THE FUEL GAUGE IN THE ENVOY. BUT AFTER READING A FEW OF THE COMPLAINTS TO THIS WEBSITE, I REALIZE THERE IS A PROBLEM THAT GENERAL MOTORS DOES NOT WANT TO ADDRESS. *TR

2002 GMC ENVOY - CONTINUE TO EXPERIENCE FUEL SMELL CONDITION. HAD VEHICLE SERVICED IN 2009 FOR THIS ISSUE. DEALER REPAIRED PER RECALL, NEVER NOTIFIED OF THIS ISSUE, A FUEL FILLER NECK ISSUE THAT ALLOWED VAPORS TO ESCAPE. PROBLEM HAS RESURFACED AND IT IS SUSPECT THAT ISSUE IS FUEL TANK RELATED. ISSUE IS DIFFICULT TO IDENTIFY WITHOUT SIZABLE EXPENSE. NOT SURE NOW IS ISSUE IS REPEAT OF REPAIRED CONDITION OR FUEL TANK PROBLEM. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE WITH WARNING ABOUT FUEL VAPORS AND CONCERN ABOUT FIRE AND EXPLOSIONS IN AROUND GAS STATIONS YET THIS KNOW CONDITION IS ALLOWED TO EXIST ON THESE GM VEHICLES WITHOUT A SAFETY RECALL. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 ENVOY DENALI WITH 53000 MILES, ABOUT 4 WEEKS AGO, I WAS FILING UP WITH GAS, I ALWAYS FILL UP AT 1/2 TANK SINCE I PURCHASED IT IN 06. AFTER FILLING THE GAS GAGE WENT TO EMPTY, AND THEN WOULD GO TO FULL, THEN BACK TO EMPTY. IT DID THIS FOR ABOUT 5 MIN AND THEN WENT TO EMPTY. NOW THE GAGE DO NOT READ CORRECTLY AT ALL, I USE THE TRIP TO KEEP TRACK OF MY MILEAGE AS THE REMAINING MILES FUEL GAGE DOES NOT REGISTER EITHER..... *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
DRIVING AT NORMAL HIGHWAY SPEED, THE FUEL GAUGE WOULD REGISTER FULL, THEN WOULD REGISTER EMPTY, THE LOW FUEL WARNING LIGHT WOULD ILLUMINATE, AND THE FUEL GAUGE WOULD NOT WORK AGAIN. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD COME ON AND WHEN I TOOK THE CAR TO A MECHANIC, I WAS INFORMED THAT I HAD A BAD FUEL SENSOR. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND URGE THE SAFETY ADMINISTRATION TO FORCE GM TO ISSUE A RECALL. THE SAFETY FACTOR, IS RUNNING OUT OF FUEL WITH NO WARNING ON A STREET OR HIGHWAY AND NO SAFE WAY TO PULL OFF THE ROADWAY OUT OF HARMS WAY.

THE GAS GAUGE ON MY 2006 ENVOY STARTING ACTING CRAZY GOING FROM EMPTY TO FULL AND MOSTLY STAYING ON EMPTY ALL THE TIME. THIS HAS BEEN A COMMAND PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL AND OTHER GM VEHICLES AND SHOULD BE RECALLED. I HAVEN'T BEEN LEFT ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD OR REARENDED YET FROM RUNNING OUT OF GAS, BUT IT'S CERTAINLY A CONCERN. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
MY VEHICLE WAS MAKING A JET LIKE SOUND ON START UP AND WHILE DRIVING AND EVENTUALLY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. IT ALSO WAS MAKING A CLICKING SOUND FROM THE ELECTRONIC HEATING UNIT. I TOOK IT IN TO A CERTIFIED GMC DEALER AND THEY SAID THE CLUTCH FAN NEEDED TO BE REPLACED (EXPENSIVE REPAIR). COULD NOT TELL WHERE THE CLICKING WAS COMING FROM AT THE TIME (1/6/11 CLICKING WILL NOT STOP - ENDED UP BEING A DOOR ACTUATOR). I DID SOME RESEARCH ON THESE PROBLEM AND THEY ARE VERY COMMON IN THESE VEHICLE. I CALLED GMC CUSTOMER SERVICE TO MAKE A COMPLAINT BECAUSE AT A LITTLE OVER 59000 MILES THESE PARTS SHOULD NOT HAVE GONE BAD. I WISH GMC WOULD CONSIDER A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM AS WELL AS OTHER MAJOR THINGS.
