2004 GMC ENVOY Electrical System Problems

The contact owns a 2004 GMC Envoy. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked and unoccupied, the contact noticed that the front passenger's door was on fire. The contact stated that he arrived home just in time and noticed the fire. The contact stated that, because it was raining, the contact's wife had powered the window up; however, the contact noticed that the window was down when the fire occurred. In addition, the contact stated that the fire was blazing, and after the fire was extinguished, the smoke was still visible. The contact extinguished the fire. The contact disconnected the battery. In addition, the contact stated that it could have been a huge fire because the fuel tank had just been refilled prior to the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 133,295.

Headlight's,taillight's,turn signals stop working whenever they want.It's pretty scary to lose your headlight's when your driving at night.There's nothing i can do about it,except to sit wherever it happend and wait for them to come back on.My wife was following me one day and told me my brakelight's and turn signal stopped working and started to work again,she said this happened a couple time's at the same red light.There a couple of thing's (electrical)inside the vehicle that don't work anymore but i really dont care about them.To get the odometer to work i have to knock pretty hard on the plastic cover that cover's the instrument cluster,sometimes it stay's on,most of the time it wont stay on.The DIC (driver control center) doesn't work anymore.I cant even get to it.The speakers on the left side of the vehicle dont work anymore.I thought i would tell you about the inside also because it could be part of the problem.All of this happened when i was driving home from my daughter's two night's ago.I bought this vehicle about three or four's year's ago,and i had no problem's with it untill the other night.The person i bought it from is a good friend of mine.He said he never had a problem with it,plus i have been in this vehicle countless times,that's why i bought it. Thank you.

FRONT PASSENGER SEAT CAUGHT ON FIRE FROM THE SEAT HEATER. THE VEHICLE PARKED AND TURNED OFF. IT WAS PARKED IN A HIGH SCHOOL PARKING LOT WHILE MY DAUGHTER WAS IN SCHOOL. WE CONTACTED GMC, BUT THEY SAID IT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. THERE WAS SOMETHING THAT WENT WRONG FOR IT TO JUST CATCH FIRE. CAN YOU HELP US IN ANYWAY AT ALL.

MY DASH PANEL GAUGES BEGAN FAILING ONE BY ONE. MY HEADLIGHTS WILL SOMETIMES NOT COME ON AFTER STARTING THE CAR WITH THE HEADLIGHT SWITCH ON AUTO. A FLICK OF THE HEADLIGHT SWITCH IN AND OFF, DOES NOT MAKE THE HEADLIGHTS COME ON. SOMETIMES THEY COME ON AFTER DRIVING AROUND, AND THEN WILL GO OFF WITHOUT TOUCHING THE SWITCH. NOW, MY SIDE BRAKELIGHTS WILL NOT OPERATE CORRECTLY WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL IS PRESSED. ONLY THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT ILLUMINATES.

I HAVE ALL MY RECEIPTS FROM PROFESSIONAL MECHANICS.ITS BEEN A BAD EXPERIENCE.I HOPE MY TRANY DOESN'T GO OUT AFTER I'M DONE FIX ALL THIS OTHER PROBLEMS. I READ AFTER SOMEONE HAD REBUILD THE TRANY 13 MONTHS LATER HE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AGAIN WITH HIS ENVOY. IT'S NOT SAFE TO OPERATE A VEHICLE WITH SO MANY ISSUES ESPECIALY WITH NO BACK LIGHTS GOING FROM GOOD TO NOT WORKING.EVERY TIME I HAVE TO BE CHECKING IF I HAVE MY REAR LIGHTS ARE WORKING OR IN FRONT AND ALSO MY FRONT LOW LIGHT I HAVE NO VISIBILITY WHAT SO EVER.THEY ARE SO DULL.

CLUSTER WANT POWER UP PROPERLY AT START UP. WARNING LIGHTS GIVE FALSE INFORMATION. AND NOW RADIO SOMETIMES WANT PLAY CORRECTLY. AC FAN WANT WORK ON ALL SPEEDS ALSO AT TIMES. I LOOKED UP RECALLS AND THERE WAS ONE 03V096000 BUT IT DID NOT COVER MY YEAR. YOU CAN GET DIFFERENT DISPLAYS GIVING BAD INFORMATION ON EVERY START UP.

VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN ON A TWO WAY HIGHWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH. VEHICLE LOST ENGINE POWER WHILE DRIVING AND THE GAS PEDAL LOST RESISTANCE AND WENT TO THE FLOOR. VEHICLE WAS STEERED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STEERED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, CHECK ENGINE AND OTHER DASH LIGHTS STARTED FLASHING CHAOTICALLY. WHITE SMOKE STARTED COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. WITHIN A SHORT TIME, WHITE SMOKE TURNED INTO BLACK SMOKE AND THEN FLAMES STARTED TO APPEARS. THE FIRE UNDER THE HOOD EVENTUALLY CONTINUED TO GROW UNTIL IT COMPLETELY BURNED THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT MOST OF THE FIRST TWO ROWS OF THE INTERIOR BEFORE THE FIREMEN ARRIVED AND WERE ABLE TO PUT OUT THE FIRE.

ONE DAY MY SUNROOF WORKED AND THE NEXT DAY IT WOULD NOT. IT WAS STUCK IN THE IN THE OPEN POSITION (NOT FULLY OPEN, BUT WHEN THE FRONT END RAISES AN INCH OR SO). I TOOK IT TO A GM CERTIFIED MECHANIC AND THEY SAID I WOULD NEED A WHOLE NEW ASSEMBLY AND QUOTED ME $2,100. THE DEALERSHIP AND GM NOTIFIED ME THAT THEY WOULD NOT HELP ME WITH THIS DEFECT AT ALL. MY CAR IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH ONLY 85,000 MILES ON IT, BUT IT IS ONLY WORTH $5,000 AND I PAID OVER $14,000 FOR IT IN 2009 WHEN I BOUGHT IT FROM A GM DEALERSHIP. I CANNOT AFFORD TO LOSE $2,100 ON THIS VEHICLE. AND THIS IS NOT THE FIRST ISSUE THAT I HAVE HAD. WHEN I DROVE IT HOME FROM THE DEALERSHIP THE WHOLE INSTRUMENT PANEL FAILED. THEY FIXED THAT. THEN A YEAR LATER, WHEN I WAS DRIVING HOME WITH MY NEW BORN, THE ENTIRE CAR SHUT DOWN WHILE IN MOTION GOING 45 MILES PER HOUR. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT IT WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE COMPUTER AND THE WARRANTY WOULD NOT COVER IT, BUT IT WOULD COVER A RESTORATION OF THE COMPUTER. THEN WHEN I WENT TO GET MY VEHICLE THE REFUSED TO LET ME TAKE IT UNTIL I PAID $200. MY VEHICLE HAS SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING SINCE THAT AND CAN BARELY MAINTAIN IDLING AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS AT TIMES. NOW BACK TO THE SUNROOF, AFTER NOT BEING ABLE TO AFFORD TO FIX IT THE MECHANIC TOOK OUT THE SUNROOF AND JUST SET IT IN THE FRAME SO AT LEAST WATER WOULD NOT GET IN WHEN IT RAINED. HOWEVER, IT IS JUST SITTING IN THERE AND CAN EASILY BE LIFTED OUT AND MAY EVEN GET BLOWN OUT ON THE FREEWAY. WHEN EXACTLY WILL THIS BECOME A SAFETY HAZARD? WHEN MY SUNROOF BLOWS OFF ON THE FREEWAY AND CAUSES A FATAL CAR ACCIDENT? OR WHEN MY CAR COMPLETELY SHUTS DOWN ON THE MIDDLE OF THE FREEWAY AND MY CHILDREN AND I GET KILLED IN A PILE UP? GM HAS BEEN CONVICTED OF NEGLECTING TO RECALL VEHICLES WITH SAFETY ISSUES RECENTLY. CLEARLY, GM REFUSES TO PROTECT ITS CUSTOMERS. PLEASE HELP PROTECT CONSUMERS AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS.

PARKED THE VEHICLE IN A PARKING GARAGE SO I KNOW THE LIGHTS WERE WORKING WHEN WE WENT IN. AS WE WERE LEAVING APPROXIMATELY 3 HOURS LATER, THE LOW BEAMS WOULD NOT COME ON AT ALL. HAD TO RUN HIGH BEAMS; HAD SEVERAL PEOPLE LOOK AT THE FUSES, REPLACED BULBS, ETC. BUT THEY COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM. A COUPLE OF WEEKS LATER JUST BEFORE I WAS TAKING IT TO A DEALER TO LOOK AT THE PROBLEM THE LOW BEAMS BEGAN WORKING AGAIN. APPROXIMATELY TWO MONTHS LATER THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED ONLY THIS TIME I HEARD A FAINT NOISE FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND SMELLED A BURNING (SEEMED ELECTRICAL) AROMA FOR A FEW SECONDS WHEN I REALIZED THE LOW-BEAM LIGHTS WERE NOT WORKING AGAIN. AFTER A WEEK OR SO THE LIGHTS CAME BACK ON AGAIN. *TR

SPEEDOMETER ERRATIC. STAYS AT 120MPH AT ALL SPEEDS UNTIL VEHICLE IS NOT DRIVEN. DRIVEN AGAIN, DOES NOT WORK AT ALL OR IS ERRATIC SHOWING MULTIPLE SPEEDS. AS AN EXAMPLE, FREEWAY SPEED OF APPROXIMATELY 70 SPEEDOMETER WILL READ 0 AT TIMES, 40 AT TIMES OR EVEN MAY READ 120, VERY ERRATIC. *TR

Mileage: 100,000

MY SPEEDOMETER STOPPED WORKING. IT USED TO EITHER STAY ON 0 OR GO UP TO 90. I HAVE BEEN STOPPED SEVERAL TIMES FOR SPEEDING BECAUSE I CAN NOT DETERMINE MY SPEED. SINCE THAT BROKE, I HAVE ALSO LOST ALL OF MY OTHER INSTRUMENTS, INCLUDING GAS... I RAN OUT OF GAS ON ROUTE 495 IN THE MIDDLE LANE GOING ABOUT 60 MPG!!! THANKFULLY I DID NOT PANIC AND WAS ABLE TO GET MY FLASHERS ON AND MOVE INTO THE SLOW LANE AND THEN TO THE BREAK DOWN LANE. I HAVE HAD MANY PEOPLE TELL ME THIS IS A RECALL ON THE GMC PICK UP TRUCKS BUT NOT THE ENVOY!!!! DOES SOMEONE NEED TO GET KILLED IN ORDER TO HAVE THIS CORRECTED? *TR

THIS VEHICLE HAS AND HAD MAJOR ELECTRICAL ISSUES SINCE NEW. INSTRUMENT CLUSTER REPLACED AT MY EXPENSE AT 75000 MILES. NOW DOOR LOCKS INTERMITTENT. WON'T OPEN OR LOCK BY REMOTE. REAR WIPER GOES OUT WHEN DOOR LOCKS STOP. REAR DOOR LOCK OUT ALSO. CAN LOCK DOORS FROM INSIDE AND MANUALLY LOCK DRIVER DOOR BUT REAR HATCH WILL STAY UNLOCKED. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT AT A MALL OR EVEN IN MY DRIVEWAY. SOMEONE COULD ENTER MY VEHICLE AND HURT SOMEONE IN MY FAMILY WHEN LOCKS ARE OUT. IN MY DRIVEWAY THEY COULD GET ACCESS TO MY GARAGE DOOR OPENER AND ENTER MY HOUSE. I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO REMOVE MY GARAGE DOOR OPENER EVERYTIME I ENTER MY HOME. I THINK THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SECURITY ISSUE FOR MY FAMILY. I'M RETIRED AND CAN'T AFFORD THE REPAIR. I'VE SEEN THIS ALL OVER THE INTERNET BUT NO FIX FROM GM. *TR

VEHICLE IS STUCK IN PARK, ON THE DASH BOARD IT SHOW THE VEHICLE IN REVERSE. INSTRUMENT CLUSTER IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY, TACH GAUGE NOT READING CORRECTLY. TEMPERATURE GAUGE DOES NOT WORK AT ALL. FORWARD AIR VENTS DO NOT WORK ALL. *TR

STOPPED AT STREET LIKE, LIGHT WENT GREEN STARTED TO MOVE FORWARD AND CAR GOES DEAD. NO LIGHTS ON DASH, NOTHING SHOWING, JUST STOPS ABRUPTLY. AFTER A FEW MOMENTS TRIED RESTARTING CAR AND IT CAME BACK ON WITH CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. P0606 PCM FAILURE CODE DISPLAYED. COULD HAVE BEEN REAR ENDED BY SEMI TRUCK BEHIND ME OR KILLED IF I WAS TRYING TO TURN LEFT AT INTERSECTION. *TR

THE SPEEDOMETER AND TACHOMETER OF THE SUV BEGAN TO INDICATE INCORRECT READINGS. THE SPEEDOMETER WORKS FINE UNTIL WE GO ON THE HIGHWAY AND TRAVEL WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL SET BETWEEN 65-70. THEN THEY WILL READ THE INCORRECT SPEED FOR A WEEK OR SO THEN START WORKING FINE AGAIN. THE TACHOMETER NEEDLE JUST "HANGS." I TALKED TO 2 DIFFERENT REPAIR SHOPS WHO ADVISED ME THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH ENVOY'S AND TRAILBLAZERS. THE COST TO DO THIS IS OVER $500 OR MORE. IT APPEARS THAT SEVERAL OTHER 2004 GMC ENVOY OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THIS SAME PROBLEM. A RECALL SHOULD BE IN ORDER. WHEN I TALKED TO THE REPAIR SHOPS THEY SAID BEFORE THEY CAN CORRECT THE ISSUE UNDER MY EXTENDED WARRANTY IS TO SEE IT HAPPEN. EACH TIME I HAD AN APPT SET IT WOULD START WORKING BEFORE THE APPT DATE SO THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. VERY IRRITATED THAT GMC DOESN'T ADDRESS THIS NOW. *TR

Mileage: 99,000

THE IGNITION BEGAN TO STICK -- COULD NOT TURN THE KEY ALL OF THE WAY TO THE OFF POSITION. HAD TO JIGGLE IT SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE YOU COULD TURN IT SO YOU COULD TAKE THE KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION. AT THE SAME TIME, YOU COULD NOT TAKE THE CAR OUT OF THE "PARK" POSITION. THE SHIFTER WOULD STICK. NONE OF THESE HAPPENED WHEN THE CAR WAS MOVING. ONLY WHEN PARKED. ALSO, BEGINNING JAN. 1, 2014, THE REAR TAIL LIGHTS WENT OUT IN THE CAR. SEARS SAID THERE WAS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE WIRING IN THE BACK. *TR

Mileage: 200,000

AROUND AUGUST 2012, THE SPEEDOMETER AND TACHOMETER OF THE SUV BEGAN TO INDICATE INCORRECT READINGS. THE SPEEDOMETER GOES WEEKS WORKING FINE, THEN WILL READ THE INCORRECT SPEED FOR MONTHS. THE TACHOMETER NEEDLE JUST "HANGS." THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO STATED THAT THE DASH CLUSTER WOULD NEED TO BE CHANGED AT A COST OF AT LEAST $600, POSSIBLY MORE. THE DASHBOARD CLUSTER WAS NOT CHANGED. IT APPEARS THAT SEVERAL OTHER 2004 GMC ENVOY OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THIS SAME PROBLEM. A RECALL SHOULD BE IN ORDER. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 GMC ENVOY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SPEEDOMETER FAILED TO FUNCTION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A PRIVATE MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS FOUND THAT THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED ABOUT THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

I HAVE BEEN HAVING AN INTERMITTENT ISSUE WITH MY SPEEDOMETER NOT SHOWING THE CORRECT SPEED FOR THE PAST COUPLE OF YEARS AND HAS BEEN GETTING WORSE FOR QUITE SOME TIME. IT HAS NOW REACHED A POINT TO WHERE THE SPEEDOMETER DOES NOT WORK, OIL PRESSURE GAUGE DOES NOT WORK, ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ONE AND THE TACH ONLY WORKS ONCE IN A WHILE. I ACTUALLY KNOW THREE PEOPLE WITHIN THE MY PLACE OF EMPLOYMENT THAT HAVE THE SAME VEHICLE RANGING FROM A 2003 TO A 2005 THAT HAVE THE EXACT SAME ISSUES WITH THEIR INSTRUMENT PANELS. OF COURSE, THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THAT THERE IS NO RECALL RELATED TO THIS ISSUE BUT THEY WOULD BE HAPPY TO REPLACE THE IP (ALMOST $700) TO SEE IF THAT CORRECTS THE ISSUE. I ALSO KNOW OF A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT WEBSITES WHERE YOU CAN SEND THE PANEL OFF AND THEY WILL REPLACE ALL OF THE BULBS AND MOTORS FOR LESS $100. IT IS A SHAME THAT GM WOULD CHARGE OVER 7 TIMES THAT AMOUNT FOR AN ISSUE THAT IS THIS WIDE SPREAD. I HAVE DRIVEN GM MODEL CARS FOR OVER 20 YEARS AND THE ENGINES SEEM TO BE GOOD BUT THE INTERIOR ISSUES ARE AT A POINT THAT I AM TIRED OF DEALING WITH THEM. I GUESS THAT IT IS TIME TO LOOK TO TAKE ME BUSINESS TO A DIFFERENT CAR MANUFACTURER AND THAT IS A SHAME. *TR

Mileage: 160,000

THE INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER ON MY GMC ENVOY 2004 IS DEFECTIVE AS IT IS ON A MULTITUDE OF OTHER GM MODELS BETWEEN 2003 AND 2005. ONE OF THE CONSEQUENCES IS THAT THE SPEEDOMETER WILL NOT WORK OR WILL REPORT A FAULTY READING WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE. THIS IS AN UNSAFE DRIVING CONDITION AND FOR SOME REASON GM HAS NOT YET ISSUED A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM FOR GMC ENVOYS OF THE YEAR 2004 EVEN THOUGH OTHER YEARS OF THIS MODEL AND OTHER MODELS OF GM VEHICLES HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE. PLEASE HELP GM DO THE RIGHT THING BY IT'S ENVOY OWNERS. WE HAVE CERTAINLY BAILED THEM OUT ENOUGH. THERE IS ANOTHER POTENTIALLY DEADLY CONSEQUENCE OF THIS ISSUE. IF ONE WERE TO BE DRIVING THE VEHICLE AT 60MPH USING CRUISE CONTROL AND THE SPEEDOMETER WERE TO ALL OF A SUDDEN PEG ITSELF TO 20MPH, THERE WOULD BE A SUDDEN AND ABRUPT ACCELERATION AS THE COMPUTER IN THE CAR ATTEMPTED TO REGAIN 60MPH EVEN THOUGH THE VEHICLE WAS ALREADY AT THAT SPEED. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND ATTENTION TO THIS DANGEROUS SPEED CONTROL ISSUE.. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I HAVE HAD AN OVERWHELMING SMELL OF GASOLINE FOR WEEKS AND MY SPEEDOMETER WAS ONLY WORKING INTERMITTENTLY. I TOOK MY CAR TO AN AUTO STORE AND HAD THEM PUT IT ON THE COMPUTER THE CODE READ SMALL EVAP LEAK SO I BOUGHT A NEW GAS CAP TO ATTEMPT TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. THAT DIDN'T WORK SO I TOOK MY CAR TO THE MECHANIC FOR IT TO BE CHECKED OUT AS MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME BACK ON. ON THE FIRST VISIT HE SCANNED THE COMPUTER AND CODES READ PO 442 & 445 ? SMALL/LARGE EMISSION LEAK, HE CHECKED ALL COMPONENTS AND COULD FIND NOTHING. I TOOK MY CAR BACK AS THE SPEEDOMETER ISSUE WAS GETTING WORSE AND THE GAS SMELL WAS STILL PRESENT THE SAME CODE CAME UP FOR THE EMISSION/EVAP LEAK AND STILL NOTHING FOR THE SPEEDOMETER ISSUE. HE THEN DID A SMOKE TEST AND FOUND THAT THERE WAS A CRACK IN THE FILLER NECK OF THE PLASTIC GAS TANK THAT CANNOT BE REPAIRED AND MUST BE REPLACED. HE REPLACED THE SPEEDOMETER SENDER WHICH STILL DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE. AFTER MUCH RESEARCH I HAVE FOUND BOTH OF THESE ISSUES TO BE A SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH OTHER ENVOY OWNERS. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL ON THESE PARTS AND WHY GMC IS LEAVING THE COST OF REPAIRS UP TO THE OWNERS. THESE ARE MANUFACTURE??S DEFECTS. THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE A REPUTABLE COMPANY. I HAVE CALLED INTO GMC SUPPORT AND THEY AS WELL AS STAFF AT A GMC DEALERSHIP STATED THAT THIS WAS THE SAME ISSUE AS WAS STATED IN A RECALL BUT MY VIN NUMBER WASN'T INCLUDED SO NO FINANCIAL HELP WAS GIVEN. $1,215.29 LATER I HAVE A NEW GAS TANK AND MY SPEEDOMETER STILL DOES NOT WORK. THIS IS RIDICULOUS... TAKE OWNERSHIP FOR YOUR PRODUCT MALFUNCTIONS!!! HOW MANY COMPLAINTS DOES THERE NEED TO BE BEFORE A RECALL IS ISSUED ON THESE VEHICLE ISSUES? *TR

I HAVE BEEN READING MANY OF THESE POST. I CAN'T BELIEVE ALL OF THE THINGS THAT HAVE ALSO HAPPENED TO MY ENVOY. I HAVE HAD MY BACK WINDOW BLOW OUT WHILE DRIVING, THANK GOD THAT BOTH OF MY KIDS THAT WERE IN THE BACK SEAT WERE NOT HURT, THEY WERE JUST SCARED AND STILL ASK IF IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. I ALSO RECENTLY JUST HAD TO HAVE A PIECE ON THE GAS LINE FIXED WHICH WAS ALMOST $900.00 MONEY THAT I DIDN'T HAVE AND HAD TO BORROW. I AM STILL PAYING IT BACK. NOW AS FOR LAST NIGHT MY LOW BEAMS ARE NOT WORKING, I BOUGHT NEW BULBS AND THAT DIDN'T WORK, SO IT IS BACK TO THE MECHANIC. OH AND I HAVE A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT THAT GOES ON AND OFF. THEY REALLY NEED TO GET ON ALL OF THESE THINGS. IT WOULD BE NICE TO HAVE THE CAR WORKING THE WAY IT SHOULD BE. I MAY JUST PRINT THESE THINGS UP AND BRING TO THE GMC SHOP AND SEE WHAT THE CAN DO ABOUT IT. I MEAN I REALLY TO LOVE MY SUV BUT THIS IS CRAZY. I AM NOW KIND OF SCARED TO HAVE MY KIDS IN THE CAR. *TR

THE SPEEDOMETER BEGINS TO GIVE FAULTY READINGS. AT FIRST IT WAS REPORTING APPROXIMATELY 20 MILES PER HOUR UNDER ACTUAL SPEED. THIS ALMOST CAUSED A CRASH DUE TO EXCESSIVE UNKNOWN SPEED. IN THE LAST FEW DAYS THE SPEEDOMETER STARTS AT 60 MPH AND IS OFF BY APPROXIMATELY THE SAME AMOUNT SO WHEN TRAVELING 50 MPH THE SPEEDOMETER READS 110 MPH.

STARTING SHORTLY AFTER ENVOY WAS BOUGHT I NOTICED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE WOULD SHOW QUARTER TANK ONE, THEN AFTER SHUTTING OFF AND STARTING AGAIN IT WAS OUT OF FUEL AND THE LIGHT WAS ON. IN JULY 2011 THE OIL PRESSURE GAUGE WENT HIGH AND IT IS NOW PEGGED AND DOESN'T RESET. I ASKED DEALER ABOUT IT AND THERE WAS AN OUTRAGEOUS PRICE JUST TO DIAGNOSE. JAN 2012 AND NOW SPEEDOMETER GAUGE DOES NOT RESET, IT IS STUCK AT 30 MPH AND GOES UP TO 85-90 WHEN DRIVING. AFTER RESEARCHING TODAY I SEE A SERVICE BULLETIN ABOUT THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER, I NEVER RECEIVED THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER LETTER FROM GM, BECAUSE ENVOY WASN'T INCLUDED, BUT IT IS THE SAME ISSUES AS OTHER VEHICLE ON THE SERVICE BULLETIN. PLEASE HOLD GM RESPONSIBLE FOR THESE DEFECTS. *TR

SOON AFTER, ALL INSTRUMENTS IN THE PANEL SUCCESSIVE FAILED - INCLUDING FUEL GAUGE, TACHOMETER, OIL PRESSURE, AND BATTERY LEVEL...

THE PROBLEM FROM WHAT I CAN TELL FROM RESEARCHING IS THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND I HAVE FOUND MANY FORUMS ON THE NET THAT PEOPLE ARE STATING THE SAME ISSUES I AM HAVING. THE SPEEDOMETER GETS STUCK ANYWHERE FROM 0-120 MPH AND THOUGH I HAVE NOTICED THAT NO FIRES OR DEATHS HAVE OCCURRED IS THIS WHAT THE NHTSA WAITING FOR? SOMEONE TO DIE FROM THIS HAPPENING? ALSO, THE TACHOMETER, OIL PRESSURE GAUGE, AND VOLTAGE INDICATOR HAVE RECENTLY BEEN HAVING ISSUES AS WELL. THE ISSUE WITH THIS IS OBVIOUSLY NOT KNOWING HOW FAST YOU ARE TRAVELING (IE M.P.H.). I AM BEING TOLD THIS WILL BE A $450 FIX WHEN IN FACT WITH AS MANY PEOPLE AS I AM READING ARE HAVING THESE SAME ISSUES IT SEEMS THAT GMC SHOULD BE MADE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM THEMSELVES. IS IT BECAUSE THE GOVERNMENT HAS SO MUCH INVESTED IN GMC THAT THE PROBLEM IS NOT BEING RESOLVED? HOW MANY PEOPLE NEED TO FILE A COMPLAINT BEFORE THE NHTSA WILL REACT? DO I NEED TO START POSTING TO ALL THE FORUMS I ENCOUNTER AND GET PEOPLE TO SIGN UP? IF I AM THE 55TH PERSON WITH JUST THE '04 GMC ENVOY COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS ISSUE THEN ALL THE OTHER YEARS AND MODELS OF GM AND CHEVY FROM '02 THROUGH AT LEAST '06 MUST FILING COMPLAINTS, TOO. IN TOTAL THERE MUST BE ENOUGH TO AT LEAST LOOK INTO THE MATTER SO WHY ARE YOU STALLING? A PERSON NOT KNOWING HOW FAST THEY ARE DRIVING MUST BE A SAFETY ISSUE ESPECIALLY THROUGH SCHOOL ZONES AND RESIDENTIAL AREAS WOULD YOU NOT AGREE? FOR US THE ISSUE STARTED ABOUT A YEAR-AND-A-HALF AGO AND SEEMS TO BE GETTING WORSE BY THE WEEK. WE MAY GO A DAY WITHOUT ANY INCIDENT THEN IT STARTS HAPPENING ALL OVER AGAIN; IT USE TO BE THAT IS WOULD START ONLY ON THE FREEWAY BUT NOW IT HAPPENS EVEN AROUND TOWN. I WILL WAIT FOR A RESPONSE FROM THE NHTSA BEFORE GETTING THIS REPAIRED, BUT I THOUGHT I WOULD HAVE RECEIVED SOMETHING ABOUT THIS BY NOW BEING THAT I HAVE BEEN SEEING INFO ON THE NET ABOUT IT FOR SOME TIME NOW, BUT I FIGURE I NEED TO GET INVOLVED BEFORE ANYTHING IS GOING TO CHANGE. PLEASE RESPOND IMMEDIATELY. *TR

THE TEMP GAUGE DOES NOT READ CORRECTLY WHEN THE ENGINE IS RUNNING IN THE CORRECT TEMP RANGE. THE TEMP NEEDLE IS EITHER IN THE OVERHEATING POSITION (RED AREA) OR TOTALLY PAST THE MAX TEMP ON THE GAUGE, ALMOST SPINNING LIKE A COMPASS. BECAUSE OF THIS FALSE READING I PULLED MY VEHICLE OVER ON THE SHOULDER OF THE INTERSTATE, THINKING THE ENGINE NEEDED TO COOL DOWN. THIS WAS DURING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC, AND COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT ON THE HIGHWAY. A SEARCH ON THE INTERNET SHOWS OTHERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. GMC REFUSES TO REPLACE OR FIX THE GAUGE IF VEHICLE MILEAGE IS OVER 70,000. GAUGES , OIL,WATER TEMP, ETC, ARE IN VEHICLES TO ASSIST THE DRIVER WITH THEIR DRIVING AND FOR SAFETY REASONS AND SHOULD LAST A LOT MORE THAN 6 YEARS. PULLING OVER ON A HIGHWAY SHOULD ONLY BE DONE FOR AN EMERGENCY, NOT BECAUSE OF A FALSE READING, AND MAY IN THE FUTURE, IF IT HAS NOT ALREADY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. *TR

DURING NORMAL HIGHWAY DRIVING, THE INSTRUMENTATION PANEL NEEDLE GAUGES BEGAN TO MALFUNCTION. THE SPEEDOMETER INITIALLY REGISTERED SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER THAN ACTUAL SPEEDS (REGISTERED 110+ MPH WHEN TRAVELING AT ~65 MPH) AND THEN STUCK AT 15 MPH REGARDLESS OF ACTUAL SPEED OR WHEN AT A COMPLETE STOP. THE TACHOMETER ALSO BEGAN TO REGISTER HIGHER THAN ACTUAL RPM, SHOWING 6,000+ RPM EVEN WHEN THE VEHICLES ENGINE WAS RETURNED TO IDLE OR TURNED OFF.

THE INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER ON MY GMC ENVOY 2004 IS DEFECTIVE AS IT IS ON A MULTITUDE OF OTHER GM MODELS BETWEEN 2003 AND 2005. ONE OF THE CONSEQUENCES IS THAT THE SPEEDOMETER WILL NOT WORK OR WILL REPORT A FAULTY READING WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE. THIS IS AN UNSAFE DRIVING CONDITION AND FOR SOME REASON GM HAS NOT YET ISSUED A RECALL ON THIS IPC PROBLEM FOR GMC ENVOYS OF THE YEAR 2004 EVEN THOUGH OTHER YEARS OF THIS MODEL AND OTHER MODELS OF GM VEHICLES HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE. PLEASE HELP GM DO THE RIGHT THING BY IT'S ENVOY OWNERS. WE HAVE CERTAINLY BAILED THEM OUT ENOUGH. THERE IS ANOTHER POTENTIALLY DEADLY CONSEQUENCE OF THIS ISSUE. IF ONE WERE TO BE DRIVING THE VEHICLE AT 60MPH USING CRUISE CONTROL AND THE SPEEDOMETER WERE TO ALL OF A SUDDEN PEG ITSELF TO 20MPH, THERE WOULD BE A SUDDEN AND ABRUPT ACCELERATION AS THE COMPUTER IN THE CAR ATTEMPTED TO REGAIN 60MPH EVEN THOUGH THE VEHICLE WAS ALREADY AT THAT SPEED.

THAT IS A UNSAFE THING TO DO ON SIDE OF HWY SHOULD NOT TAKE 45 MIN TO GET SPARE DOWN. HEADLIGHTS DIM AND BRIGHTEN GETS DIM ENOUGH THAT MAKES HARD TO SEE. *TR

MY 2004 GMC ENVOY HAS DEVELOPED AN ERRATIC SPEEDOMETER. THE SPEEDOMETER REFLECTS INACCURATE SPEEDS CAUSING AN UNSAFE DRIVING CONDITION. I CONTACTED MY LOCAL GMC DEALER WHO RESEARCHED TO FIND NO RECALL CONCERNING THIS PROBLEM I THEN SUBMITTED MY COMPLAINT TO THE BBB HOTLINE AND WAS REBUFFED THEIR ALSO. I HAVE CONSEQUENTLY DONE ADDITIONAL RESEARCH AND HAVE FOUND THAT GM HAS ISSUED A SPECIAL COVERAGE ADJUSTMENT BULLETIN FOR 2003-2004 CADILLAC ESCALADE, CHEVROLET AVALANCHE, SILVERADO, SUBURBAN AND TAHOE, GMC SIERRA AND YUKONS. THE SPEEDOMETER UNIT IN THESE MODELS ARE VERY SIMILAR IN BOTH APPEARANCE AND ARE MANUFACTURED BY THE SAME SUPPLIER GM USES. THE ADJUST BULLETIN IS #07187 DATED SEPTEMBER 28,2007 AND COVERS THE CONDITION FOR A PERIOD OF 7 YEARS OR 70,000 MILES REGARDLESS OF OWNERSHIP. AFTER VISITING MANY GMC AND CHEVROLET CHAT ROOMS IT IS READILY APPARENT THAT THIS PROBLEM IS VERY COMMON AND WILL EVENTUALLY RESULT IN A FATAL ACCIDENT. I AM REQUESTING THAT THE NHTSA FORMALLY INVESTIGATE THIS PROBLEM BEFORE THIS HAPPENS. *TR

PROBLEM STARTED OUT AS ERRATIC READING WITH SPEEDOMETER. AFTER APPROX. 5 DAYS SPEEDO FINALLY WOULDN'T REGISTER AT ALL TOOK VEHICLE TO AUTHORIZED DEALER TO BE REPAIRED - $555.00 CHARGE TO REPLACE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND REPROGRAM. CALLED GM FOR FINANCIAL HELP AS I NOTICED THERE WERE ALOT OF FAILURES WITH GMC SUV'S AND PICK-UP TRUCKS. GM WOULD NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THERE WAS A PROBLEM WHICH I FEEL IS TOTALLY DISINGENUOUS. SPEEDOMETER IS NECESSARY TO BE WORKING AS A SAFETY ISSUE. BECAUSE I WAS OUT OF STATE AT THE TIME OF PART BREAKDOWN I FELT I HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO HAVE PROBLEM FIXED BEFORE MY RETURN TRIP HOME (1250 MILES). JUDGING HOW MANY OTHER ENVOYS HAVE HAD SAME PROBLEM, I FEEL GM IS DODGING THEIR RESPONSIBILITY I NOTICED THAT THERE HAS BEEN CLASS-ACTIONS AGAINST THEM FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

Mileage: 60,724

THE TACHOMETER WOULD QUIT WORKING BUT IT HAPPENED ONLY A COUPLE OF TIMES IN JAN 2008 & AGAIN IN JUNE 2008 AND WHEN WE TURNED THE CAR OFF AND STARTED IT THE NEXT TIME IT SEEMED TO BE FINE AS IF IT NEEDED RESET. IN JAN OF 2009 THE SPEEDOMETER BEGAN TO FAIL AT FIRST OCCASIONALLY THEN ALL THE TIME AT THE SAME TIME THE TACHOMETER SPORADICALLY FAILED. SO WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND HAD THEM REPLACE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER IN THE DASH (THEY KEPT THE OLD PART) AND GM REFUSED TO HELP WITH THE PROBLEM SITTING THE MILEAGE ON THE VEHICLE AT THE TIME OF THE REPAIR. *TR

Mileage: 88,000

THE SPEEDOMETER HAS A MALFUNCTION THAT WILL MAKE THE SPEEDOMETER READ VERY ERRATIC, AT A STEADY SPEED THE SPEEDOMETER HAS BEEN ALL THE WAY OVER TO THE 120 MPH AND ON OTHER DAYS IT WILL STAY A ZERO. THIS PROBLEM OCCURS FREQUENTLY, NOT EVERYDAY BUT I WOULD SAY ATLEAST ONCE EVERY 2 WEEKS. I BELIEVE THERE COULD BE GRAVE CONSEQUENCES., YOU HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA HOW FAST OR SLOW YOU ARE ACTUALLY GOING, ESPECIALLY IF THERE ARE NO CARS TRAVELING THE SAME DIRECTION AS YOU. I WILL ATTEMPT TO REPAIR THIS ITEM MYSELF SINCE THE DEALER SAYS IT CAN COST $300-$700 TO FIX. *TR

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. SPEED ODOMETER AND TACH NOT ACCURATE. I HAVE HAD 2 SPEEDING TICKETS BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW HOW FAST I AM GOING. NOT SURE OF THE DATE IT FIRST HAPPENED BUT IT IS GETTING WORSE. GM DEALER IN MY AREA WAS RUDE TO MY WIFE AND SAID THEY WILL NOT COVER IT. *TR

I BEGAN EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS WITH THE INSTRUMENT PANEL ON MY 2004 GMC ENVOY A FEW MONTHS AGO. THE ENTIRE PANEL WOULD GO OUT AND ALL THE GAUGES BOTTOMED OUT. I COULD NOT TELL MY SPEED, GAS LEVEL, RPMS, ETC. THE PANEL WOULD STAY OUT FOR A FEW DAYS THEN RETURN TO NORMAL. ALSO ON OCCASION THE SPEEDOMETER WOULD STICK AT 60 MPH AND ONLY CORRECT ITSELF IF I PULLED OVER AND TURNED THE TRUCK OFF THEN BACK ON. FINALLY, ABOUT TWO WEEKS AGO THE ENTIRE INSTRUMENT PANEL WENT OUT AND HAS NEVER COME BACK ON. I HAVE DROPPED IT OFF AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE AND AM AWAITING THEIR RESPONSE. THIS PROBLEM HAS CAUSED ME TO RUN OUT OF GAS TWICE BECAUSE I WAS UNABLE TO JUDGE MY FUEL LEVEL. LUCKILY BOTH TIMES I WAS IN AN AREA WITH EASY ACCESS TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD. I CURRENTLY HAVE APPROXIMATELY 55,000 MILES ON MY TRUCK. (I CAN'T BE SURE OF THIS, HOWEVER, SINCE THE ODOMETER IS A PART OF THE PANEL THAT IS OUT.) THIS IS A SERIOUS AND, ACCORDING TO MY RESEARCH, RECURRING PROBLEM THE GMC SHOULD BE FORCED TO CORRECT AND PAY FOR. *TR

WAS ABLE TO GET IT DOWN TO ZERO IN 5MPH INCREMENTS BY STARTING AND SHUTTING DOWN THE ENGINE, BUT THEN AFTER DRIVING IT WOULD STICK AT 40 AND UP. THOUGHT IT WAS STRANGE THAT MY OTHER 2004 CHEVY TRUCK RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER FOR THE EXACT PROBLEM MY GMC WAS HAVING. HAD TO PAY OUT OF POCKET TO REPLACE DASH BOARD CLUSTER(OVER $500.00).

GOING THROUGH TOWN, IT SHOWS 120 MPH AT MOST TIMES. WENT TO GM DEALER, PUT NEW SENSOR ON IT, DID NOT FIX PROBLEM. NOW HAVE ORDERED A NEW CLUSTER. NOT SURE IF ANY OF THE OTHER GAUGES WORK CORRECTLY. THIS IS GOING TO COST OVER $450.00 AND FROM WHAT I HAVE READ, HUNDREDS OF THIS YEAR ENVOY HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM. OUR PART WAS BACKORDERED, SO THAT MEANS THERE IS A HIGH VOLUME REQUESTING THIS SAME PART. IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLED A LONG TIME AGO!!! *TR

THE HEADLIGHTS AND DASHLIGHTS FLICKER FROM BRIGHT TO DIM WHILE DRIVING AND WHEN BRAKING.

I HAVE A 2004 GMC ENVOY. THE SPEEDOMETER AND INSTRUMENT DISPLAY CONSOLE WENT BAD ON IT YESTERDAY (01/28/08) RANDOMLY. GMC ACKNOWLEDGES THIS PROBLEM WITH A RECALL WITH OTHER GMC SUV'S, BUT NOT THE ENVOY'S.

ON 11/01/07 I NOTICED THE SPEEDOMETER ACTING ERRATIC; IT WOULD STAY ON 10 TO 20 MPH. WHEN I KNEW I WAS GOING FASTER. AT OTHER TIMES IT WOULD CREEP UP TO 75 OR 80 MPH. AND NOT GO DOWN WHEN I SLOW DOWN. OCCASIONALLY IT WOULD WORK FINE. THIS WENT ON ABOUT 3 WEEKS AND I THOUGHT IT MIGHT CORRECT ITSELF. IT FINALLY STOPPED WORKING ALTOGETHER COMING TO REST ABOVE 120 MPH. ON 12/07/07 I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID THEY WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE THE WHOLE INTERMENT PANEL AT A COST OF AROUND $470.00. THEY ALSO SAID IF I DIDN'T HAVE OVER 60,000 MILES ON MY CAR IT WOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY. I HAD 62,492 MILES ON THE DAY I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER. *TR

1. I PURCHASED A 2004 ENVOY. THE DEALER I PURCHASED IT FROM HAD IT UNDER WARRANTY. 2 WEEKS AFTER I PURCHASED, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WERE COMING ON AND OFF, THE AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCKS STARTED TO LOCK BY THEMSELVES SIMULTANEOUSLY. NON STOP. IT SCARES MY CHILDREN, AS WELL AS I, BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S GOING TO SPARK A FIRE OR WHAT. SOMETIMES IT DOES IT MORE THAN OTHERS, FOR EXAMPLE, WHEN IT RAINS, BUT IT ONLY DOES IT WHEN I ROLL THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW UP. EVEN IF ITS NOT DOWN AND I ROLL IT UP IT DOES IT. AS WELL AS IF I HIT A SMALL POT HOLE AND SOMETIMES IT JUST DOES IT ON ITS ON. I'VE TAKEN IT TO A GMC DEALER 4 OR MORE TIMES AND THEY CAN'T FIND THE PROBLEM ANY WHERE. SO, NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO FIX THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE NO ONE CAN FIND A SOLUTION. I PARK MY $18,000 VEHICLE NEXT TO THE ROAD IN CASE IT DOES SPARK A FIRE.

I JUST BOUGHT A USED 04 GMC ENVOY WITH 30,000 MILES ON IT. NOW ABOUT A MONTH AFTER I BOUGHT IT I'M HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE SPEEDOMETER. SOMETIMES IT WORKS SOMETIMES IT DOESN'T. WHEN IT DOES NOT WORK IT READS TO HIGH OR TWO LOW. I CAN BE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT 65 AND IT WILL DROP BELOW 0. OR I CAN BE STOPPED AT A LIGHT AND IT SHOWS 40. A QUICK SEARCH ON THE WEB SHOWS THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I FEEL GM AND GMC SHOULD HAVE TO DO A RECALL ON THIS AS IT COULD BE A LIFE AND SAFETY ITEM. FOR EXAMPLE ONE COULD SLOW TO THE RECOMMEND SPEED FOR A CURVE OR A TURN. IF THE SPEEDOMETER IS READING TWO LOW THEN THE PERSON WOULD BE TRAVELING TWO FAST FOR THE TURN. I SEE ALSO WHERE A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT IS IN THE WORKS ON THIS. *TR

ON-GOING ISSUES WITH MY 2004 GMC ENVOY SINCE PURCHASE. LEAVE HOME, TRAVEL TO DESTINATION, USUALLY A SHORT DISTANCE, WHEN TRYING TO RESTART VEHICLE ALL DASH LIGHTS COME ON, RADIO WORKS, WINDOWS WORK, ETC., TURN THE KEY TO START AND NOTHING HAPPENS, NO ATTEMPT AT STARTING WHAT-SO-EVER. MAKES NO DIFFERENCE WITH TEMPERATURE, TIME OF DAY, RAIN/SHINE, ETC. OFTEN IF YOU LEAVE THE VEHICLE TO SIT FOR AN HOUR, IT WILL RESTART, SOMETIMES SOONER, SOMETIMES NOT AT ALL. FIRST INCIDENT HAPPENED WHEN WE HAD 308 KM ON THE VEHICLE, NOW WE HAVE 68,000 KM AND PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. THEY HAVE CHANGED THE IGNITION SWITCH NUMEROUS TIMES, REPROGRAMMED THE SETTINGS FOR INTERNATIONAL VS DOMESTIC IN REGARDS TO THE APPARENT SECURITY SYSTEM THAT I HAVE, WHICH WE DISCOVERED HAS NEVER WORKED EITHER. NUMEROUS ISSUES WITH THE ABS COMING ON WITH DRY PAVEMENT. WATER IN REAR BACKUP LIGHTS, THEY WERE DRAINED AND RE-SEALED. RUST ON ALL INTERIOR DOOR PANELS, BACK DOOR AND HOOD WHERE JOINTS MEET, REPAIRED. WATER ON THE FLOOR AT THE DOOR WHEN IT RAINS, FIXED SEAL AT DOOR. DRIVERS SIDE DOOR LOCKED WHEN YOU LEFT THE VEHICLE WITHOUT LOCKING IT MYSELF, REPROGRAMMED.

I WAS AGAIN STOPPED ON 7/4/2007 FOR SPEEDING.

UPON ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE, ALL THE DASH BOARD WARNING LIGHTS AND TURN SIGNAL INDICATORS CAME ON AND STAYED ON. ALL THE GAUGES STARTED ACTING ERRATICALLY AND ALL THE NEEDLE INDICATORS STARTED JUMPING AT RANDOM. WHEN I TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE AND TRIED TO START THE VEHICLE AGAIN, THE VEHICLE STARTED WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS. THE VERY NEXT TIME I TRIED TO START THE VEHICLE; IT DID THE VERY SAME THING AS MENTIONED ABOVE (GAUGES ACTING ERRATICALLY, ETC.). I ATTEMPTED TO START THE VEHICLE SEVERAL MORE TIME EACH TIME WITH THE SAME RESULT. FINALLY THE VEHICLE STARTED AND NO FURTHER PROBLEMS WERE EXPERIENCED. I DROVE THE VEHICLE FOR APPROXIMATELY 1200 MILE OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS. YESTERDAY, I WAS DRIVING HOME AT A SPEED OF APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH WHEN THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT WARNING QUIT. I COASTED TO A SAFE SPOT ON THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD. I TRIED MULTIPLE TIMES TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. EACH TIME THE VEHICLE EXHIBITED THE SAME SYMPTOMS AS MENTIONED ABOVE E.G. GAUGES ACTING ERRATICALLY. AFTER ABOUT 5 MIN. THE VEHICLE STARTED NORMALLY AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE HOME. IN MY DRIVEWAY I ATTEMPTED TO START THE VEHICLE SEVERAL TIME. EACH TIME THE VEHICLE EXHIBITED THE SAME SYMPTOMS AS MENTIONED ABOVE E.G. GAUGES ACTING ERRATICALLY. UPON CONSULTING WITH A LOCAL MECHANIC AND A LOCAL DEALER, I WAS INFORMED THE PROBLEM WAS MOST LIKELY A BAD IGNITION SWITCH. THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY HAVING THE SWITCH REPLACED. *JB

I PURCHASED A 2004 GMC ENVOY WITH APPROXIMATELY 50000 MILES ON IT IN MAY OF 2006. ABOUT 4 MONTHS LATER, THE SPEEDOMETER STARTED ACTING SLIGHTLY ERRATIC, REPORTING SPEEDS VARYING BY 10-20 MPH (I.E. ON THE HIGHWAY, KEEPING UP WITH TRAFFIC AT 65 MPH, THE SPEEDOMETER WOULD REPORT 45 MPH OR SOMETIMES 80 MPH. OVER THE PAST FEW WEEKS, THE PROBLEM HAS GOTTEN MUCH WORSE, WITH THE SPEEDOMETER REPORTING 120 MPH AT HIGHWAYS SPEEDS, AND 50 MPH AT A STOP, SOMETIMES NOT REGISTERING ANY SPEED AT ALL (O MPH). THE CRUISE CONTROL HAS ALSO STOPPED WORKING, WHICH I AM ASSUMING IS RELATED TO THE SPEEDOMETER MALFUNCTION. I SEARCHED ONLINE, AND APPARENTLY THERE ARE MANY OTHER GMC OWNERS WITH THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM. PLEASE SEE LINK BELOW: HTTP://WWW.TOPIX.NET/FORUM/AUTOS/CHEVROLET-TAHOE/T2BGKBGI55EKNU77C/P1 THIS IS THE FIRST GMC CAR I HAVE PURCHASED AND I AM DISSATISFIED WITH THIS SAFETY ISSUE. I AM A PRETTY GOOD GUESS AT HOW FAST I AM GOING, HOWEVER WITHOUT AN ACCURATE SPEEDOMETER I FEEL I AM TAKING UNNECESSARY CHANCES. AS A REALTOR, I OFTEN HAVE CLIENTS IN MY VEHICLE AND I AM CONCERNED FOR THEIR SAFETY AS WELL. I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH GMC, BUT I WAS REFERRED TO THE DEALER AS THERE ARE NO CURRENT RECALLS FOR THIS PROBLEM. THE DEALER SAYS THAT THIS IS A $500 FIX, AND I AM CONCERNED AS THIS APPEARS TO BE A MANUFACTURER DEFECT, BASED ON THE NUMBER OF OTHER CONSUMERS WITH THIS SAME ISSUE. I NEVER EXPECTED TO HAVE AN ISSUE THIS PROBLEMATIC WITH A VEHICLE 2 YEARS OLD. I HOPE THAT BY REPORTING THIS ISSUE, THE NHTSA WILL BE ABLE TO HELP ME AND THE OTHER HUNDREDS OR THOUSANDS OF CONSUMERS WITH THIS SAFETY ISSUE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING HEADLIGHTS, INTERIOR LIGHTS, LIGHTING IN THE DASH, AND OTHER LIGHTING FLICKER WHILE DRIVING. IT APPEARS TO BE HAPPENING MORE AND MORE. THE LIGHTS BECOME VERY DIM AND THEN GET BRIGHT AGAIN IN A MATTER OF A FEW SECONDS. THIS IS GETTING TO BE DANGEROUS AS PEOPLE TEND TO PULL OVER IN FRONT OF ME AND SOMETIMES TRAFFIC IN GOING IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION COMING TOWARDS ME WILL PULL OF THE ROAD ALL THINKING THAT I AM FLASHING THEM EITHER DUE TO AN EMERGENCY OR JUST SOME WILD DRIVER BEHIND THE WHEEL. I HAD TAKEN MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALER BUT HE STATES HE CAN NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. OF COURSE HE ALSO STATED THEY TOOK IT FOR A RIDE BUT IT DOES NOT HAPPEN FOR THEM. I GUESS NOT, IT IS HARD TO SEE LIGHTS FLICKERING IN THE SUNSHINE. *NM

THE BLOWER MOTOR ON OUR 2004 GMC ENVOY QUIT WORKING AND UPON TAKING IT TO THE DEALER TO REPAIR, THE DEALER INDICATED THAT THE BLOWER MOTOR RESISTOR AND THE WIRING HARNESS THAT PLUGS INTO THE RESISTOR HAD MELTED TOGETHER. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ORDER THE TWO PARTS (RESISTOR AND WIRING HARNESS), IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE WIRING HARNESS IS ON NATIONWIDE BACKORDER. THE SERVICE MANAGER ALSO INDICATED THAT HE HAS 5 OTHERS ON BACKORDER. FROM THAT COMMENT, HE INDICATED THAT THERE IS A MAJOR ISSUE WITH THE WIRING HARNESS AND RESISTOR MELTING TOGETHER ON A NATIONAL BASIS. THE FACT THAT THE HEAT WAS SO GREAT TO MELT THESE TWO COMPONENTS TOGETHER CLEARLY INDICATES A POSSIBLE FIRE AND SAFETY HAZARD. I BELIEVE IT'S SOMETHING THAT SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED AND A RECALL ISSUED. *JB

THE ENGINE STALLS PERIODICALLY. GMC SAID THEY DO NOT KNOW WHY. THE GAS GAUGE AND ODOMETER DO NOT WORK PROPERLY. WHEN I BROUGHT MY VEHICLE INTO NORTH COUNTY GMC DEALERSHIP IN SAN DIEGO FOR REPAIRS I MENTIONED MY GAS GAUGE DID NOT WORK ALONG WITH MANY OF THE OTHER ISSUES. AFTER THEY REPAIRED THE ODOMETER BY REPLACING THE CLUSTER, THE GAS GAUGE STILL DID NOT WORK. EVERY SINGLE TIME THESE PROBLEMS HAPPEN I AM FORCED TO PAY A $100 SERVICE CHARGE JUST SO THEY CAN LOOK AT IT AND BECAUSE I AM IN SALES, I AM ALSO FORCED TO GET A RENTAL CAR. AFTER ALL THIS, I AM STILL QUITE DISPLEASED WITH GMC. I HATE TO SAY IT BUT THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE THE BEST AMERICAN CAR ??PROFESSIONAL GRADE?? AND IF THIS IS TRUE I WILL NEVER BUY AN AMERICAN VEHICLE AGAIN. GMC SAID THEY WOULD BE CHECKING ON ALL THESE PROBLEMS AND EVERY SINGLE TIME I PICKED MY ENVOY UP AFTER THEY SUPPOSEDLY FIXED THE PROBLEMS, I FOUND SEVERAL ISSUES STILL UNRESOLVED. THEY SUGGEST I NEED TO SET ANOTHER MEETING TO BRING MY ENVOY IN AND OF COURSE WILL COST ANOTHER $100. *NM

FIRST OF ALL MY ODOMETER GAUGE STOPPED OPERATING. IT REMAINED ON ZERO MILES WHILE I WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE SINCE NOVEMBER 2005. THE WHOLE DASHBOARD CLUSTER HAD TO BE REINSTALLED. SECONDLY; THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT BEGAN POPPING ON AND THE ENVOY WAS DRIVING ROUGH. I FOUND OUT FROM A GM DEALER THAT THE CLUTCH FAN FROZE WHICH CAUSED THE WATER PUMP TO BREAK AND THE RADIATOR TO OVER HEAT BURST THE RADIATOR HOSE AND SPEW OUT AND LEAK ALL OF THE WATER AND RADIATOR FLUID FROM THE RADIATOR. THE ENVOY IS NOW NOT DRIVABLE. I HAVE ONLY HAD THIS 2004 ENVOY SINCE NOVEMBER OF 2003. *NM

HEADLIGHTS, DRIVING LIGHTS AND ALL INTERIOR LIGHTING DIM AND FLICKER APPROX EVERY 30 SECONDS. HAS BEEN THIS WAY FOR OVER 10 DAYS, DEALER CANNOT DIAGNOSE PROBLEM UNTIL THE "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" LIGHT COMES ON, WHICH IT HASN'T. IT IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT WITH DIM, FLASHING, HEADLIGHTS, AND IS CONFUSING TO OTHER DRIVERS. ALSO, A FAN CAN BE HEARD BLOWING OFF & ON APPROX ONCE EVERY MINUTE, AND THIS IS WITH THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY TURNED OFF AND THE KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION. THIS IS CONSTANT, I'M CONCERNED THE BATTERY WILL BE DEAD AND THE CAR WON'T START, OR THAT THE LIGHTS WILL COMPLETELY GO OUT WHILE I AM DRIVING AT NIGHT. REAR PASSENGER DOOR LOCKS SUDDENLY STOPPED WORKING WITH THE REMOTE AND THE DOOR UNLOCK SWITCH ON THE DRIVER'S DOOR. I HAVE TO CLIMB OVER THE FRONT SEAT INTO THE BACK TO PHYSICALLY UNLOCK THE DOOR TO REMOVE MY CHILDREN FROM THE CAR. *NM

2004 GMC ENVOY DEVELOPED THE FOLLOWING PROBLEMS: VEHICLE STALLED, TURN SIGNALS STOPPED WORKING, BLOWER FAN STOPPED WORKING, AND THE SRS LIGHT REMAINS LIT.*MR THE TURN SIGANLS STOPPED WORKING DUE TO A SHORT IN THE FLASHER. THE POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE WAS REPLACED DUE TO THE SES LIGHT ILUMINATING. THE BLOWER MOTOR FAN FAILED 4 TIMES DUE TO A SHORT IN THE WIRES AND CONTROL HEAD. THE VEHICLE OVERHEATED, BUT THE PROBLEM COULD NOT BE DIAGNOSED. THE LCD DISPLAYS, KNOBS BECOME EXTREMLY HOT AFTER HOURS OF DRIVING. *JB

THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START, DUE TO AN OPEN IGNITION SWITCH. *BP THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO HAVE THE SAME ISSUE OF AN OPEN IGNITION SWITCH. THE CONSUMER REQUESTED THAT THE MANUFACTURER REPLACE THE VEHICLE. *SC *TC *JB

I OWN A 2004 ENVOY. I HAD TAKEN THE VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE PREVIOUSLY FOR ELECTRICAL ISSUES. THE HEADLIGHT AND INTERIOR LIGHTS WOULD CONSTANTLY FLICKER AS YOU DROVE. THE DRIVERS DOOR ALSO LOCKED ITSELF WHEN EXITING THE VEHICLE. THE PROBLEMS WERE INTERMITTENT, HAPPENING ABOUT 3 TO 4 TIMES A MONTH. SINCE THE PROBLEMS PERSISTED, I AGAIN TOOK THE VEHICLE FOR SERVICE. ANOTHER ELECTRICAL PROBLEM HAD ARISEN ALSO. THE HORN, AT TIMES, WOULD NOT WORK. AGAIN THIS WAS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM. THE DEALER SAID THEY COULD NOT LOCATE THE PROBLEM UNLESS IT WAS OCCURRING WHEN THEY HAD THEY WERE CHECKING IT. I CALLED GM CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE TO FILE A COMPLAINT. THEY THEN TALKED WITH THE DEALER. THE CAR WAS KEPT FOR SEVERAL MORE DAYS AND RETURNED WITH THE DIAGNOSIS THAT THE PROBLEM COULD NOT BE LOCATED SINCE IT WAS NOT OCCURRING WHEN THEY HAD THE VEHICLE. THEY DID NOTE THAT THE HORN HAD QUIT WORKING AND THEN STARTED WORKING AGAIN WHILE THEY HAD THE VEHICLE BUT WERE STILL UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE AND CORRECT. I CONTACTED GM CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE AND WAS INFORMED THEM I CONSIDERED THESE PROBLEMS A SAFETY ISSUE, SINCE I WAS UNSURE IF THE FLICKERING CONDITION IN THE LIGHTS MIGHT CAUSE THEM TO GO OUT WHILE DRIVING, AND THE FACT THE HORN MAY OR MAY NOT WORK WHEN NEEDED. I WAS INFORMED THERE WAS NOTHING ELSE THEY COULD DO UNLESS THE PROBLEM BECAME CONSISTENT. *JB

WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED CHECK ENGINE LIGHT APPEARED ON THE DASHBOARD AND REMAINEDED ON. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION, AND MECHANIC DETERMINED THAT THE COMPUTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED, AND REPLACED IT. HOWEVER, THE PROBLEM RECURRED. *AK
