FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER
OUR 2005 ENVOY HAD A GAS GAUGE MALFUNCTION AROUND 2 TO 3 YEARS AFTER WE BOUGHT IT AS BRAND NEW. GOOD THING IT WAS STILL COVERED BY OUR INSURANCE BUT AFTER A YEAR AND A HALF, THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURRED, AND IT WAS NOT COVERED BY THE INSURANCE ANYMORE SINCE IT'S ALREADY PASS 3 YEARS. HAVING IT FIXED IS QUITE COSTLY. I JUST RECENTLY FOUND OUT THAT THERE WERE 285 PEOPLE WHO COMPLAINED ON THE SAME PROBLEM. I DO HOPE THAT GMC WILL DO A RECALL ON 2005 GMC ENVOYS. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 GMC ENVOY. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH WHEN THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS THE FOURTH OCCURRENCE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AFTER EACH FAILURE AND THE DEALER FIRST DIAGNOSED THAT THE COMPUTER SYSTEM WAS DEFECTIVE AND WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE SECOND TIME, THE DEALER REPLACED THE IGNITION COIL AND THE THIRD RECURRENCE OF THE FAILURE, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS REPLACED. EACH OF THE REMEDIES ADMINISTERED FAILED TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED BACK TO THE DEALER WHO WAS NOT ABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED WHO FILED A REPORT AND STATED THAT THEY WOULD CONTACT HIM AT A LATER DATE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 79,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 82,000.

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
THOUGH I HAD 1/4 TANK OF GAS IN MY CAR, I PUT IN 13.5 GALLONS OF FUEL. WHEN I TURNED ON THE ENGINE, INSTEAD OF THE GAS GAUGE SHOWING FULL, THE INDICATOR DROPPED DOWN TO EMPTY AND THE "LOW FUEL" LIGHTS WENT ON. THIS CONTINUED WITH THE INDICATOR SHOWING 1/4 FULL, EMPTY, FULL, EMPTY UNTIL SEVERAL DAYS LATER, WHEN IT SETTLED AT 3/4 FULL. EVERY TIME I HAVE ADDED FUEL TO THE GAS TANK, THE SAME THING HAPPENS. I HAVE BEEN FORCED TO WRITE DOWN MY MILAGE AND KEEP TRACK OF HOW FAR I HAVE DRIVEN IN ORDER TO ESTIMATE WHEN I NEED FUEL. I CANNOT TRUST WHAT THE GAUGE READS.

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE, EQUIPMENT
FAULTY FUEL GAUGE SENSOR, AS WELL AS A FAULTY INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE FUEL GAUGE INDICATES THERE IS NO FUEL WHEN I HAVE JUST FILLED UP MY 2006 GMC ENVOY. STARTED WITH FILLING UP MY SUV AND AFTER I GOT GAS, THE GAUGE DROPPED TO EMPTY WITH THE BELL CHIMING LOW FUEL. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON CONSTANTLY EVEN AFTER HAVING THE CAR SERVICED. IT GOES OFF INTERMITTENTLY. DEFINITELY DANGEROUS AS YOU DO NOT KNOW WHEN YOU WILL RUN OUT OF GAS, ESPECIALLY WITH TRAVELING WITH YOUNG CHILDREN. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I OWN A 2006 ENVOY. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL INCIDENTS OF MY VEHICLE SHUTTING DOWN WHILE DRIVING. EACH TIME THE ROAD SERVICE INDICATED THAT MY VEHICLE WAS OUT OF FUEL EVEN THOUGH THE FUEL GAUGE READ I HAD MORE THAN A SUFFICIENT AMOUNT. EVEN AFTER THEY PUT FUEL IN MY VEHICLE IT WOULDN'T START WITHOUT A BOOST. THIS HAPPENED TWICE WHEN I WAS ON THE FREEWAY WHICH IS VERY DANGEROUS. DUE TO MY FINANCIAL SITUATION I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO GET THIS PROBLEM FIXED. *TR
