2006 GMC ENVOY Electrical System Problems

Went to drive home at night lights were working then all the sudden went out. Pulled over checked fuses n restarted auto and still no lights, the dash board lights were out as well. Safety of other drivers and my family were affected. Did have to have a friend come and get us. And went to get auto next day n still no lights. When got home checked everything agine and fuses were ok the wireing look all intact. Still no lights. Or dash lights.

WHEN I TURN ON MY RIGHT TURN SIGNAL MY HIGH BEAMS COME ON. THIS IS A NOT ONLY A SAFETY ISSUE BUT ALSO CAUSES ROAD RAGE ISSUES

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

I HAVE 2006 GMC ENVOY, WHOLE DOOR PANEL WENT OUT BEFORE RECALL, SO WE PAID $2000 AND HAD FIXED, WHEN RECALL CAME OUT, THEY REIMBURSED US. BUT BECAUSE RECALL WASN'T OUT YET I AM THINKING THEY PUT OLD PART IN, THIS WAS AROUND 2008. YOU CANNOT DRIVE A CAR SAFELY WITH NOTHING WORKING ON DRIVER DOOR, I HAVE KIDS IN BACK I NEED WINDOW LOCK, CAN'T OPEN MY DOOR OR WINDOW IF EMERGENCY HAPPENED. VERY FRUSTRATING. I GOT A LETTER IN AUGUST 2015 STATING THAT RECALL #12180 DRIVER DOOR SWITCH SHORT CIRCUIT RECALL HAD NOT BEEN DONE ON MY CAR YET. AND APPROXIMATELY A WEEK LATER IT WENT OUT, I HAD BEEN GETTING THESE CARDS BUT BECAUSE I HAD IT DONE IN 2008 I ASSUMED IT WAS FINE, BUT NOW DOING EXACT SAME THING, SO THE GMC RECALL CARD SAYS TAKE TO GARBER GMC IN GREEN COVE SPRINGS, FL AND WILL FIX FOR FREE, FIRST TIME I TOOK IT UP THERE THEY SAID PART NOT LISTED ON COMPUTER SO CAN'T DO IT CAUSE GMC WON'T PAY THEM BACK, THEN GOT SERVICE MGR INVOLVED AND HE SAID BRING IT UP AND HE WILL CHARGE ME $90 TO DIAGNOSE IT, I SAID I DON'T HAVE THAT KIND OF MONEY. HE WAIVED IT TO SEE IF IT WAS THE RECALL PART, WHEN I CALLED TO CHECK ON IT THE SERVICE MAN THAT HANDLED IT SAID IT WAS THAT PART BUT THE RECALL HAD CLOSED, MY CAR HAD TOO MANY MILES ON IT, ETC.. WHAT DOES THAT MATTER? I KNOW IT IS THE SAME PART, IT IS DOING THE SAME THING. THEN I GET FROM SERVICE MANAGER WE WILL DO FOR $500.00, WHEN FIRST TIME COST US $2000, MY HUSBAND SAID NO, WE HAVE CARD HERE SAYING THIS IS RECALL AND YOU WILL FIX FOR NO CHARGE, NOW THEY ARE SAYING IT ISN'T THAT PART, I HAVE HAD SEVERAL STORIES, BUT IF IT WAS RECALLED THEY NEED TO FIX IT. WHETHER OR NOT IT WAS DONE BEFORE THE RECALL CAME OUT. THEY PROBABLY PUT OLD PART IN THEN, BECAUSE RECALL HAD NOT BEEN PUT OUT YET. PLEASE HELP ME GET MY CAR FIXED, VERY FRUSTRATING, DANGEROUS AS WELL. THANK YOU. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

WHILE SERVICING MY VEHICLE AT AN AUTHORIZED GM DEALERSHIP, I WAS NOTIFIED OF THE RECENT RECALL REGARDING HEADLAMPS WHICH GET HOT AND CAN FAIL. IT HAS BEEN NEARLY 8 MONTHS SINCE THAT RECALL WAS ISSUED, AND YET THERE REMAINS NO IDENTIFIABLE REMEDY OR SOLUTION AS TO HOW THEY WILL RESOLVE THE ISSUE AND REPAIR / REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE COMPONENTS.. ENTITLED TO SAFE VEHICLES, I AM UNSURE AS TO HOW OR WHY GM WOULD BELIEVE THAT 8 MONTHS TO NOT EVEN HAVE ANNOUNCED A SOLUTION IS AN ABSURDITY. AT THIS POINT, THE PERIOD OF TIME IN WHICH THE MANUFACTURER HAS HAD TO DEVELOP AND IMPLEMENT A SOLUTION IS SIMPLY UNACCEPTABLE AS A CONSUMER. I AM UNDER THE BELIEF THAT THEIR SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM IS SIMPLE, THEY ARE GOING LET THE VEHICLES AGE A FEW MORE YEARS AND HOPE BY THAT TIME, ADDITIONAL VEHICLES REQUIRING REPAIR WILL NO LONGER BE ON THE ROAD AND THE ISSUE WILL MAGICALLY GO AWAY. AS OWNERS OF THIS VEHICLE, I AM ENTITLED TO THE REMEDY AS PROMISED UNDER RECALL GM 14291, AND I DO NOT THINK THAT IT IS ACCEPTABLE FOR MANUFACTURERS TO SIT ON OPEN RECALLS FOR VEHICLES CURRENTLY ON OUR ROADWAYS WHICH HAVE BEEN ALREADY BEEN IDENTIFIED AS HAVING A SAFETY DEFECT IN NEED OF DEFECT REPLACEMENT OR REPAIR.

TRIED TO TURN ON THE AIR CONDITIONING AND DISCOVERED THE FAN DID NOT WORK. AFTER QUITE A BIT OF RESEARCH AND AN EXPENSIVE DIAGNOSIS, WAS INFORMED THE BLOWER MOTOR RESISTOR WAS BURNED OUT. THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON, FREQUENT, AND EXPENSIVE PROBLEM IF DONE BY THE DEALERSHIP. THERE ARE SEVERAL POTENTIAL HAZARDS TO FAMILIES AND CHILDREN WHICH INCLUDE; THE POSSIBILITY OF FIRE CAUSED BY THE HEATED & MELTED WIRE, LOSS OF AIR CONDITIONING IN THE HEAT OF THE DAY WHICH MAY CAUSE HEAT STROKE OR WORSE, AND LOSS OF HEAT DURING THE WINTER MONTHS MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE SAFELY WITHOUT THE WINDOWS ICING OVER AND INHIBITING VISION. A RECALL IN ORDER TO REPAIR THE PROBLEMS WITH THE BLOWER MOTOR RESISTOR IS NECESSARY. MECHANIC STATES THAT BOTH CHEVROLET AND GMC MODEL VEHICLES FROM 2004 TO 2007 ARE BEING REPAIRED WITH THIS EXACT PROBLEM. HE HAS REPAIRED 5 VEHICLES THIS MONTH IN THE STATE OF ALABAMA.

WHILE DRIVING, THE FUEL GAUGE READING FLUCTUATED WHICH CAUSED DIFFICULTY IN DETERMINING THE ACTUAL FUEL TANK LEVEL. IN ADDITION, THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED CONTINUOUSLY WHENEVER THE VEHICLE WAS OPERATIVE. THERE WERE ALSO ELECTRICAL ISSUES WHICH CONTRIBUTED TO THE RADIO NOT TO FUNCTION AND THE INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER LIGHTS WOULD NOT ILLUMINATE. THE FUEL SENSOR WAS REPLACED PREVIOUSLY BY THE DEALER AND THE FAILURE RECURRED THREE YEARS LATER. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED FOR THE MOST RECENT FUEL GAUGE MALFUNCTION. THERE WERE NO REPAIRS PERFORMED IN RELATION TO THE OTHER FAILURES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE PROBLEM. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 23,000.

I HAVE HAD 2 PROBLEMS WITH THIS VEHICLE. THE FIRST ONE WAS AT 28000 MILES, ABOUT 3 WEEKS AFTER I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE. THE RESISTOR FOR THE HEAT/AC FAN CAUGHT FIRE WHILE I WAS DRIVING AT ABOUT 5 MPH IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. THE FIRE WENT OUT ON IT'S OWN BY THE TIME I HAD ROOM TO PULL OVER (ABOUT 15-20 SECONDS). I WAS UNABLE TO GET THE PART REPLACED RIGHT AWAY SO I HAD TO DRIVE AROUND IN COLD AND ICY CONDITIONS WITHOUT EVEN BEING ABLE TO RUN THE DEFROSTER. THE SECOND PROBLEM WAS THAT AT ABOUT 32000 MILES MY GAS GAUGE BROKE. I HAD JUST FILLED THE TANK AND WAS DRIVING AT ABOUT 65 ON THE HIGHWAY. THE GAS GAUGE NEEDLE DROPPED TO EMPTY AND STAYED THERE. I MADE SURE THAT I WAS NOT LEAKING GASOLINE AND CONTINUED ON MY WAY. IT WORKED INTERMITTENTLY FOR A WHILE BUT IS NOW COMPLETELY BROKEN. WHEN I FILL UP MY TANK THE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON FOR THE FIRST 25-100 MILES AND THE GAUGE READS EMPTY WITH THE FUEL LIGHT ON. I AM UNCOMFORTABLE WITH USING THE 4WD OR TOWING VERY MUCH BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH I KEEP TRACK OF MILES DRIVEN THESE THINGS EAT UP MORE FUEL. I DON'T WANT TO RUN OUT OF GAS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. I HAVE NOT GOTTEN IT FIXED BECAUSE OF THE REPAIR COST.

Mileage: 28,000

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.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 GMC ENVOY. THE CONTACT STATED THE AIR CONDITIONER WAS ACTIVATED AND THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL BURNING ODOR.

DRIVING WHEN THREE LIGHTS SHOWED UP ON INSTRUMENT PANEL STABILITRAK, CHECK ENGINE AND REDUCED ENGINE POWER LIGHT CAME ON THE ENVOY COMPLETELY TURNED IT SELF OFF. I WAITED A FEW MINUTES THEN STARTED THE CAR. IT STARTED THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS THE ONLY LIGHT ON. I GOT HOME AND RESTARTED CAR ALL LIGHTS DISAPPEARED. NEXT DAY DRIVING THE SAME THING HAPPEN. THREE MORE TIMES ON THE WAY TO MECHANIC THE ENVOY TURNED ITSELF OFF. FIND OUT THE PROGRAMMABLE CONTROL MODULE PCM WAS DEFECTIVE. THIS CAR WAS PURCHASED AS A CERTIFIED USED VEHICLE 07/08. I THEN FIND OUT THE PART IS READILY AVAILABLE AND NOT A SPECIAL ORDER. THEY REFURBISH THIS PART WITH A ONE YEAR WARRANTY. I CAN NOT BELIEVE THAT GMC WOULD ENGINEER A CAR TO ENTIRELY SHUT DOWN WHEN DRIVING THIS COULD HAVE BEEN VERY DANGEROUS HAD I BEEN ON THE FREEWAY GOING 65 MPH, ALSO THAT THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN AS IT IS NOT A WEAR AND TEAR ISSUE. THE CODES THAT SHOWED UP WERE APPARENTLY NOT COVERED BY GMC. WITH THIS PART BEING READILY AVAILABLE I MUST NOT BE THE ONLY ONE WHO HAS HAD THIS HAPPEN. THIS WAS A COSTLY REPAIR, AND I FEEL THAT SOMEONE SHOULD LOOK TO SEE IF THIS HAS HAPPEN TO OTHERS, BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR KILLED. *TR
