I FIRST NOTICED THIS PROBLEM WHEN I WAS GETTING ONTO A HIGHWAY AND WHEN I LOOKED AT MY SPEEDOMETER IT REGISTERED 120MPH. I WAS JUST MERGING INTO THE LANE WITH TRAFFIC. THEN WHEN I EXITED AND WILE WAITING FOR A STOPLIGHT TO CHANGE TO GREEN, MY CAR REGISTERED 60 WHILE SITTING STILL. THIS HAD HAPPENED THE WINTER BEFORE AND THEN STOPPED. THIS TIME I HAD TO FIX IT. IT NEVER STOPPED REGISTERING MY SPEED INCORRECTLY. *TR

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
I WAS DRIVING ON A CURVY 2 LANE ROAD IN THE COUNTRY AND THE SUN WAS JUST SETTING AND I COULDN'T GET ANY LIGHTS ON MY CAR. MY LIGHTS ARE AUTOMATIC AND I JUST ASSUMED THAT I HAD BUMPED A BUTTON AND ACCIDENTALLY TURNED THEM OFF, SO I STARTED TURNING THE SWITCH TO TURN THEM ON AND IT WASN'T WORKING. I ALMOST DROVE OFF THE ROAD SEVERAL TIMES TRYING TO GET SOME LIGHT ON. I THEN HIT A SECTION WHERE TREE LINED CURVED SECTION THAT WAS PRETTY DARK. THERE HAD BEEN NO SHOULDER OR ANYWHERE TO PULL OVER THERE OR FOR SEVERAL MILES. I COULD GET BIGHTS LIGHTS, BUT NO DIM. I ENDED UP DRIVING WITH MY FOG LIGHTS, UNKNOWINGLY AT THE TIME. WE HAD JUST REPLACE THE BULBS 5 MONTHS BEFORE BUT WE TRIED NEW BULBS AND FUSES TO SEE IF THIS WOULD FIX THE PROBLEM. UNFORTUNATELY, IT DIDN'T. I HAVE NOTICED A RECALL ON LIGHTS FOR THE ENVOY YEARS 06-07 FOR WHAT SEEMS LIKE THE SAME REASON AND MINE IS AN 05. *TR

I WAS INVOLVED IN A HEAD ON COLLISION, WHERE A CAR CAME AROUND A BUS INTO MY LANE . IT WAS A CLEAR CUT CASE OF WHO WAS AT FAULT. MY CONCERN IS THAT MY AIR BAG NEVER DEPLOYED. THERE IS A DRIVER AND PASSENGER AIRBAG IN THAT MODEL. IF NOT FOR MY SEAT BELT , I WOULD HAVE GONE THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD AND THE VEHICLE WAS TOTALED FROM THE FORCE. THERE ARE PICTURES I COULD FORWARD OF THE ACCIDENT. I WANTED TO KNOW IF THERE WAS ANY THING ELSE I COULD DO TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE. THANK YOU *TR

AFTER FINISHING SHOPPING, I WENT TO MY CAR AND OPENED THE BACK DOOR TO PUT MY MERCHANDISE , AS SOON AS THE DOOR OPENED ABOUT 12 INCHES, THE GLASS BLEW UP AND SHATTERED EVERYWHERE. I'VE OWNED THIS SUV FOR 2 YEARS NOW AND NEVER HAD ANY ISSUE WITH THE BACK DOOR, IT WAS SHOCKING HOW A GLASS WOULD SHATTER LIKE THIS. IN ADDITION, IT IS VERY EXPENSIVE TO REPLACE THE GLASS ($500 AND UP). *TR
