AIR BAGS
WHILE PROCEEDING TO TAKE A LEFT TURN AFTER COMING TO A STOP AT A T INTERSECTION BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAGS DEPLOYED ON THEIR OWN. THIS SCARED MY WIFE TO DEATH! IT CAUSED HER TO BUMP THE CURB WITH ONE IF THE TIRES ONLY, NO ACCIDENT. THANKFULLY SHE WAS OFF WORK AND THE KIDS WERE ALREADY AT SCHOOL AND NOT WITH HER AT THE TIME! I CALLED GM IMMEDIATELY AND REPORTED THIS. AN INVESTIGATION WAS CONDUCTED AND LASTED ABOUT 2 MONTHS. I WAS INFORMED THAT THE FINDINGS WERE CONFIDENTIAL AND THAT THEY WOULD NOT BE REPAIRING MY VEHICLE! YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME. MY WIFE SUFFERED A MINOR HEAD INJURY, SCARE OF HER LIFE NOT TO MENTION WE WERE NOT PROVIDED WITH A RENTAL, COMMUNICATIONS WERE POOR AT BEST WITH OUR CAR WORKER AT GM. SHE WAS EVEN OUT SICK FOR A WEEK, IT TOOK ME 4 DAYS FOR SOMEONE TO FINALLY TELL ME THAT. THE ENVOY IS A 2005 AND WAS BOUGHT NEW AND HAS BEEN WITH OUR FAMILY EVER SINCE. LOW MILEAGE JUST TURNING 100K. VERY WELL CARED FOR. I AM FLOORED THAT GM IS NOT REPAIRING OUR BABY! I HAVE SEEN MANY REPORTS OF THE SAME ONLINE. I TRULY FEEL GM IS DECEIVING THE PUBLIC TO A BIGGER PROBLEM. HENCE THE REASON THEY STATED THE FINDINGS ARE CONFIDENTIAL. I JUST WANTED OUR BABY REPAIRED.

SERVICE BRAKES, ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
I JUST HAD MY BRAKES SERVICED AND MY BUSHINGS CHANGED, BUT MY ABS LIGHT STILL COMES ON. ALSO WHEN I GO TO BRAKE THE CAR STARTS TO SHAKE AND I'M GOING THE SPEED LIMIT. THE ENGINE HAS A ROUGH IDLE, AND SHUTS OFF WHEN AT A COMPLETE STOP AND WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. I'VE HAD MANY THINGS REPLACED ON THE VEHICLE, SUCH AS PURGE VALVE, GAS CAP. CHARCOAL CANISTER AND FUEL TANK. IN THE ENGINE THE SPARK PLUGS WERE CHANGED AS WELL AS THE COIL PACKS AND THE FUEL INJECTORS. ALONG WITH THE CAMSHAFT SENSOR. STILL GETTING P0455 AND PO0014. WON'T PASS SMOG CAN'T REGISTER VEHICLE, BUT MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION. 2004 GMC ENVOY XUV SLT 4DR 2WD

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I HAVE A 2006 GMC ENVOY DENALI THAT CAUGHT FIRE THIS MORNING, IT WAS AN ELECTRICAL FIRE, CAUSED IN THE HVAC BLOWER CIRCUIT, THE CIRCUIT FUSE DID NOT BLOW, THE CABIN FILLED WITH SMOKE, AND AN OPEN FLAME WAS CREATED. I MANAGED TO PUT THE FIRE OUT, HOWEVER SOMEONE ELSE IN THIS SITUATION MIGHT NOT HAVE EVEN BEEN ABLE TO PULL OFF A BUSY HIGHWAY, LET ALONE EXTINGUISH THE FIRE AS IT WAS UNDER THE DASH BEHIND THE GLOVEBOX. THE SYMPTOMS BEFORE THE FIRE WERE AS FOLLOWS: 1)A FAINT BURNING ELECTRICS SMELL (ELECTRICAL SMOKE IS VERY DISTINCTIVE) 2)BLOWER QUIT RUNNING(WITHIN 30 SECONDS OF SMELL) 3)CABIN FILLED WITH SMOKE (WITHIN 1 MINUTE OF SMELL) TO THE POINT I COULD NOT SEE OUT THE WINDSHIELD 4)OPEN FLAME WAS PRESENT UNDER DASH (WITHIN 2 MINUTES OF SMELL) THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, 50MPH, HEATING SYSTEM WAS RUNNING, OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE 5* FAHRENHEIT. THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON FAILURE POINT AS THERE ARE MULTIPLE REPAIR KITS AVAILABLE WITH NEW WIRING CONNECTORS TO REPLACE DAMAGED ONES WHEN REPLACING SPEED RESISTOR THERE WERE NO PREVIOUS ISSUES WITH THE HVAC BLOWER MOTOR SYSTEM

STRUCTURE:BODY
THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR HAS NO POWER. THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR WILL NOT OPEN OR UNLOCK. THE REAR DRIVER SIDE DOOR WILL NOT LATCH AND STAY SHUT. THIS ALL HAPPENED WHEN I WAS GETTING MY KIDS IN THE CAR AND NOW I CAN'T USE THE CAR BECAUSE MY KIDS COULD FALL OUT. IN THE OTHER VEHICLES IT WAS THE FAULTY LATCH. THIS HAPPENED TO OTHER VEHICLES OF THE SAME YEAR AND MODEL. NUMBER 05V494000.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
WHEN TRAILER IS CONNECTED TO THE 7 WAY TO BOX TRAILER CONNECTION TRAILER TAIL LAMPS DO NOT LIGHT CORRECTLY. BRAKE AND LEFT TURN SIGNAL LAMPS WORK PROPERLY. THE RIGHT TURN TRAILER LAMP IS PARTIALLY LIT WHEN TURN SIGNAL IS NOT ENGAGED. WHEN RIGHT TURN SIGNAL IS ENGAGED THE LEFT AND RIGHT TURN SIGNALS START FLASHING, BRAKE LIGHTS WORK NORMAL. THIS TURN SIGNAL ISSUE APPLY ONLY WHEN TRAILER ELECTRIC CIRCUIT IS PLUNGED IN TO THE TRAILER CIRCUIT. MY UNDERSTANDING THERE WAS A RECALL REGARDING THE FLASHER UNIT FOR THE 2003 ENVOY VEHICLE TURN SIGNALS. IT APPEARS THE TRAILER CIRCUIT HAS A SIMILAR ISSUE. BOTH THE VEHICLE AND TRAILER WORK OFF THE SAME FLASHER MODULE. SEE RECALL 05V198000. I PLAN TO REPLACE THE FLASHER UNIT TO CORRECT THIS DEFECT. IF YOU NEVER TOWED A TRAILER THIS ISSUE WOULD NOT BE DISCOVERED. WHEN TOWING A TRAILER DRIVER COULD BECOME CONFUSED WHEN YOUR MAKING A RIGHT TURN. THIS POTENTIALLY COULD RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT. THE TRAILER USED WAS A 5X10 FOOT SINGLE AXLE BOX TRAILER WITH FOUR WIRE ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT. I HAD NO ISSUES WHEN TOWED WITH A DIFFERENT MAKE OF TRUCK. I DID REPLACED BOTH TRAILER TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY AND ISSUE DID NOT CHANGE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I ROLLED MY DRIVER'S WINDOW DOWN THIS MORNING AND TRIED TO ROLL IT BACK UP AND IT ACTED LIKE IT DIDN'T WANT TO GO BACK UP. IT STARTED TO GO UP AND THEN IT STOPPED AFTER A FEW SECONDS AND I TRIED HITTING THE BUTTON AGAIN AND NOTHING HAPPENED. THEN I HIT THE BUTTON AGAIN AND IT STARTED TO GO UP BUT VERY SLOWLY THEN IT STOPPED AGAIN. I DID THIS FOR A BIT UNTIL THE WINDOW WENT ALL THE WAY UP. THIS HAS HAPPENED A COUPLE OTHER TIMES ALSO. TODAY WAS THE 1ST TIME THAT IT REALLY DID NOT WANT TO GO BACK UP. THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED IN A PARKING LOT AT THAT TIME.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE A STRONG ODOR OF GAS ENTERING THE CABIN. FILL VEHICLE UP AND LARGE AMOUNT OF GAS POURS ON THE GROUND FROM UNDER THE VEHICLE. CLOSER INSPECTION REVEALS THE PART THAT ATTACHES TO THE GAS TANK IS BROKEN OFF CAUSING VAPORS TO ESCAPE AND NOT PROVIDING A SEAL TO CONTAIN THE SMELL. WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT NORMAL OPERATING SPEED VEHICLE LOSES OIL PRESSURE CAUSING IT TO DROP TO 0 AND MESSAGE APPEARS TO STOP ENGINE. BOTH INCIDENTS ARE SAFETY HAZARDS AND CAN CAUSE SERIOUS LIFE AN DEATH INCIDENTS IF ISSUES ARE NOT ADDRESSED BY THE CORPORATION. THIS OCCUR ON INTERSTATE 66 IN WASHINGTON, DC. IMMEDIATE RECALL OF ALL VEHICLES FROM GMC NEEEDS TO BE INITIATED.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
BULLETIN NO.:14423 DATE: NOVEMBER 2015 PART NUMBER: 15077622 TANK, FUEL (18.7 GAL.) THE ICV IS LOCATED ABOVE THE FULL FUEL LEVEL. A FRACTURED ICV COULD ALLOW FUEL VAPORS TO PASS THROUGH AND DROPLETS OF FUEL TO ACCUMULATE ON THE SIDE OF THE FUEL TANK AS IT PASSES OVER THE FRACTURE DURING REFUELING. IF THE ICV FRACTURES, THE VEHICLE'S SERVICE ENGINE SOON (SES) LIGHT MAY ILLUMINATE, AND YOU MAY NOTICE A FUEL ODOR AND/OR A FEW DROPS OF FUEL ON THE GROUND WHEN REFUELING THE VEHICLE. THIS HAS HAPPEN TO ME AND NOW MY TANK NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH GMC ENVOY REGARDLESS OF YEAR OR HOW LONG THEY ARE IN SERVICE. THE COMPANY NEEDS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR POOR QUALITY OF PARTS ESPECIALLY WHEN IT IS A SAFETY CONCERN AND HAZARD WITH FUEL ODOR COMING INTO THE CAB OF THE VEHICLE AND SPILLING OUT WHEN GOING UP A HILL. BEING TOLD TO ONLY FILL MY GAS TANK UP HALF TO THREE QUARTERS FULL DUE TO THAT PART BEING BROKEN IS THE WRONG ANSWER. IN MOTION WHEN I SMELL GAS AND THEN NOTICE IT WHEN I FILL THE VEHICLE UP AND IT STARTED POURING OUT.
