2006 GMC Envoy Denali Xl Problems

THE INITIAL TIME (3/14) IT OCCURRED, I WAS OUT OF TOWN WITH MY FAMILY, EMBARRASSED TO SAY THE LEAST. HOWEVER, MAINLY UNCOMFORTABLE, TIRED, AND FRUSTRATED BECAUSE MY 87 YEARS OLD DAD WAS STRANDED FOR HOURS AS WELL AS MY 66 YEARS OLD SISTER WHO IS RECOVERING FROM CANCER. THIS PROBLEM WAS A SERIOUS PROBLEM BECAUSE OF OUR LOCATION. WE HAD GONE TO GET DINNER AND ICE CREAM AFTER GETTING ICE CREAM WE BACK IN THE VEHICLE FOR IT WOULD NOT START. I CALLED 911 NO POLICE EVER SHOWED NOR WOULD EVEN STOP TO ASSIST. AFTER 2 1/2 HOURS, WE CONTACTED A CHURCH MEMBER TO FIND OUT ABOUT A MECHANIC IN THE AREA THAT COULD POSSIBLY COME CHECK IT OUT. ANOTHER CHURCH MEMBER CAME TO CHECK IT FIRST, BY NOW 3 HOURS HAVE LAPSED AND THE VEHICLE STARTS. AFTER THIS IT HAS HAPPENED ON THREE (3) SEPARATE OCCASIONS WITH ME (3/19, 3/20, & 3/21) BUT MY MECHANIC SAID IT HAPPENED WITH HIM 3 OR 4 TIMES WHILE HE WAS DRIVING IT TO CHECK IT OUT AND WHILE IT WAS SITTING JUST RUNNING NOT BEING DRIVEN. I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE ONCE, ONCE DRIVING, AND ONCE PARKED AND IT WOULD NOT START. THE TIMES I WAS BY MYSELF ONCE WAS ON THE INTERSTATE, ANOTHER WAS GOING THROUGH AN INTERSECTION, AND ONCE WAS IN A HIGH CRIME AREA WHERE I FELT VERY UNSAFE FOR MY VEHICLE AND MYSELF. MY MECHANIC REPLACED THE CRANKSHAFT AND CAMSHAFT SENSORS AND THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. I HAD A DIAGNOSTIC TEST PERFORMED BUT WAS TOLD THE ITEMS LISTED ON THE TEST 'MAY' BE THE PROBLEM. I HAVE ALSO HAD A PROBLEM WITH IT ACCELERATING WHILE DRIVING AS IF THE GAS IS NOT DISTRIBUTING PROPERLY. IT WAS AS IF IT WAS CHOKING UP AS IF THERE WAS A CLOG. A DANGEROUS PLACE TO BE IN TRAFFIC OR GOING ACROSS A RAILROAD TRACK, WHICH IT HAS OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES WITH ME. I ACTUALLY WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED ON THE INTERSTATE.

THE GAS GAUGE HAS COMPLETELY STOPPED WORKING. IT CONSISTENTLY SHOWS AS EMPTY EVEN WHEN TANK IS FULL. *TR

THE VEHICLE WILL ABRUPTLY GO FROM 70 MPH TO 30'S (SEMI-TRAILER CLOSING IN FAST) AND I CAN'T DO A THING ABOUT IT!! SERVICE STABILITRACK HAS BEEN A THORN WHILE UNDER WARRANTY AND PERSISTS TO BE A PROBLEM NOW THAT IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY! FROM EARLY ON, <10,000 MILES AND OVER 10 TIMES SINCE, THIS VEHICLE HAD BEEN IN TO TWO DIFFERENT DEALERS AND THE PROBLEM, THOUGH INTERMITTENT, STILL EXISTS AND IS A HUGE DANGER TO ME AND MY KIDS BUT I CAN'T JUST GO BUY ANOTHER CAR OR TRADE THIS IN LIKE SOME PEOPLE (INCLUDING THE CAR DEALERSHIP MANAGERS) PORTRAY IS THE BEST OPTION WHEN I SHOULD BE ABLE TO GET GM TO FIX THE CAR OR REPLACE IT WHEN THEY CAN'T SEEM TO FIGURE OUT WHY THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. BUT THAT HASN'T BEEN THE ONLY PROBLEM: GEAR BAND BROKE TWICE ON THE TRANSMISSION, HAD TO HAVE TRANSMISSION REBUILT BECAUSE OF FAULTY RADIATOR, AND OTHER ISSUES HOWEVER NONE OF THE PROBLEMS REMOTELY COMPARE TO HAVING TAKEN IT IN FOR SERVICE BECAUSE OF THE REPEATED UNEXPLAINED DE-ACCELERATION AND LOSS OF ABILITY TO MAKE THE CAR DO ANYTHING EXCEPT PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND GIVE IT TEN MINUTES TO STOP HAVING A "TANTRUM" OF SORTS WHILE TRAFFIC WHIZZES BY AND THANKFULLY DIDN'T HIT US (YET). EXTERIOR / AESTHETICS, I LOVE THIS VEHICLE BUT POOR FUNCTION AND EVEN WORSE SERVICE OF PROBLEMS. I'VE REPORTED IT TO CORPORATE BUT THEY DON'T CARE AND DESPITE IT HAVING HAD BEEN INTO THE DEALERSHIP NUMEROUS TIMES PRIOR TO END OF WARRANTY, NOW THEY JUST WANT ME TO START PAYING THEM FOR ALL THESE FIXES THAT HAVEN'T FIXED ANYTHING. ONCE I STARTED PAYING FOR FIXES AND THEN STARTED COMPLAINING THAT THEY AREN'T COVERING WHAT THEY'VE NEVER FIXED; THE MANAGER HAD THE NERVE TO SAY HE'D PAY FOR IT OUT OF HIS OWN POCKET IF HE KNEW IT WOULD FIX IT ... HELLO... WHY SHOULD THE CONSUMER PAY FOR IT WHEN THE PROBLEM IS NEVER REALLY FIXED.

WHILE DRIVING, IN PITCH BLACK DARKNESS ON 6/10/2016 AROUND 1:00 AM, MY HEADLIGHTS SUDDENLY WENT OFF. THE ONLY WAY I COULD OBTAIN LIGHTS WAS USING THE HIGH BEAMS. LOW BEAMS DO NOT WORK AND HIGH BEAM ONLY WORKS IN MANUAL ON/OFF MODE. WE CHECKED THE LAMPS AND FUSES. ALL ARE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. I HAVE NO LIGHTS WHILE DRIVING OR IN PARK. THE SIDE VIEW MIRRORS MOVE ON THERE OWN AND AT ANY TIME, WHILE DRIVING , IN PARK AND WHEN THE CAR IS NOT RUNNING. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE THE DOOR PANEL RECALL WAS REPAIRED. THE DEALER HAS INFORMED ME THAT THERE IS NO RECALL ON THAT EITHER. LAST YEAR (2015) I HAD TO REPLACE THE AIRBAGS (SUSPENSION) ON BOTH REAR WHEELS. THE CAR WOULD DROP DOWN LOWER THAN ANY MID SIZE CAR. ONCE STARTED THE BAGS WOULD INFLATE BUT THE CAR MAY DROP AT ANY GIVE TIME WHILE DRIVING. GM DID NOT COVER THIS COST AND THE DEALER WANTED OVER $1200.00 TO REPAIR. PRIOR TO THAT THE GAS GAUGE QUIT WORKING. WHICH GM DID COVER THE REPAIR COST BUT I NEVER RECEIVED A RECALL. I JUST HAPPENED TO BE AT THE DEALER FOR THE DRIVER DOOR RECALL AND MENTIONED IT.

2006 GMC ENVOY DENALI. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO DROPPED VALVE. *LD *JS

TAKATA RECALL I HAVE HAD TO MAKE MANY REPAIRS ON THIS VEHICLE. HOWEVER, NOW THE LIFTERS IN THE ENGINE COLLAPSED. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS ABOUT 87,000 MILES ON IT. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. THERE HAVE BEEN MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS VEHICLE AND THE LIFTERS COLLAPSING. WE ARE A ONE INCOME FAMILY AND THE REPAIRS TO THIS VEHICLE ARE ASTRONOMICAL. WELL OVER 3500.00 DOLLARS. THIS VEHICLE IS NOT DRIVABLE AND HAS BEEN SITTING FOR A YEAR NOW AT MY MECHANICS. THE VEHICLE IS OF NO USE TO ME AND HAS BECOME A HUGE PAPER WEIGHT NOW. THE WORST PART IS I STILL OWE ON THE VEHICLE TOO. GM NEEDS TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AND DO A RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE FOR THE AFM LIFTERS, OR PAY FOR THE REPAIRS TO THIS VEHICLE. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER GM PRODUCT AGAIN. OWN UP TO YOUR MISTAKES AND TAKE ACCOUNTABILITY FOR THIS PROBLEM. I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE THIS HAS HAPPENED TO. VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THIS VEHICLE THAT IS SUPPOSE TO BE AMERICAN MADE!!!!!!! THEN YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY PEOPLE ARE BUYING MORE FOREIGN MADE CARS. THEY SEEM TO BE MORE RELIABLE THAN THE GM PRODUCTS.

THIS MORNING, MY WIFE WAS PARKING AT ONE OF OUR KID'S SCHOOLS WHEN THE TRANSMISSION SYSTEM FAILED TO RESPOND. SHE ATTEMPTED TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK, BUT IT WOULD NOT INITIALLY. ONCE THE SHIFTER WOULD MOVE FORWARD, THE VEHICLE DIED, AND CONTINUED TO ROLL FORWARD EVEN THOUGH THE SHIFTER WAS POSITIONED AS IF IN PARK. SHE HAD THE PRESENCE OF MIND TO LET IT ROLL UNTIL STRIKING THE PARKING SPOT CEMENT BUMPER. SHE REMOVED THE KEY FROM THE IGNITION, THEN ATTEMPTED TO RESTART THE VEHICLE WITH NO SUCCESS AND THE SHIFTER BUTTON WOULD NOT DEPRESS. SHE PANICKED BECAUSE OF LOOSING CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE WITH SO MANY SMALL KIDS AROUND AND CALLED ME. I LEFT WORK, AND UPON ARRIVAL ATTEMPTED TO TROUBLESHOOT WHAT CAUSED THE INCIDENT. I STARTED AT THE SHIFTER, SO I LOOSENED ALL THE COVERS AROUND IT, IN CASE THERE WAS SOMETHING BINDING THE SHIFTER. I ACTUALLY DID FIND SEVERAL SMALL ITEMS THAT HAD FALLEN IN THE COMPARTMENT THROUGH THE FRONT EDGE OF THE CENTER CONSOLE COVER ASSEMBLY. REMOVING THESE ITEMS STILL DID NOT ALLOW RESTARTING OF THE VEHICLE. I THEN LOOKED UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE, AND DISCOVERED THAT THE LINKAGE FROM THE SHIFTER TO THE TRANSMISSION HAD SEPARATED. I MANIPULATED THE INPUT LEVER AT THE TRANSMISSION WITH MY HAND AND NOTICED THAT IT HAD MOVEMENT IN BOTH DIRECTIONS, WHICH MEANT THE TRANSMISSION WAS ACTUALLY NOT IN PARK. AFTER POSITIONING THE INPUT LEVER AT THE TRANSMISSION TO PARK, THE VEHICLE DID START. I SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF AND RECONNECTED THE SEPARATED LINKAGE. I WAS SHOCKED TO SEE THAT THE PIECE THAT MAINTAINS SUCH AN IMPORTANT LINKAGE CONNECTED APPEARS TO BE MADE FROM A PLASTIC. TO ME THIS IS A MAJOR ISSUE THAT CAN CAUSE SOMEONE TO POTENTIALLY HAVE A VEHICLE STUCK IN A MOVEMENT CAUSING GEAR, AND DUE TO A LINKAGE SEPARATION HAVE NO WAY TO PROPERLY TURN THE VEHICLE OFF (UNTIL IT RUNS OUT OF GAS), TO MADE FROM PLASTIC. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 GMC ENVOY DENALI XL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE OVER 40 MPH. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE ENGINE AND THE LOW FUEL WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED ALTHOUGH THE FUEL LEVEL WAS AT MAX. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE THROTTLE BODY AND FUEL PUMP NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.

I WAS PULLING UP TO PARK IN A PARKING LOT.I HAD TOTAL BRAKE FAILURE. THE ELECTRONIC SAFETY FEATURES FAILED- AND THERE WAS NO STOPPING THE ENVOY. I SLID UP THE CURB AND INTO THE BUILDING. THE MECHANIC THAT REPAIRED THE ENVOY HAS A WRITTEN REPORT OF THE SAFETY SYSTEMS GETTING STUCK HALF OPENED AND THE BRAKE LINES BRAKING AND THERE WASN'T ANY FLUID IN SYSTEM. *TR

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS AND DAYLIGHT DRIVING LIGHTS SHUT DOWN AFTER A FEW MINUTES. LIGHTS WILL COME ON AFTER ENGINE COOLS DOWN BUT NOT BEFORE. CANNOT DRIVE AFTER DARK. HIGH BEAMS CONTINUE TO OPERATE.

LAST NIGHT I NOTICED AT A STOP LIGHT THAT I DID NOT HAVE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ON. VERY DISCONCERTING. AFTER I MADE MY TURN TO EXIT THE BUSY STREET, THE HEADLIGHTS DID COME BACK ON. AFTER RESEARCHING THE ISSUE, IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH GM. IN FACT, MANY CARS WERE SELECTIVELY RECALLED ON THIS ISSUE. MINE WAS NOT. GRANTED, MY CAR IS 11 YEARS OLD WITH 157,000 MILES, I STILL BELIEVE GM AT SOME POINT SHOULD HAVE WARNED ME OF THIS SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS ISSUE. IT APPEARS I CAN EASILY FIX IT MYSELF WITH A $27 "MODULE" FROM AUTOZONE. NO ISSUES ON THE REPAIR AND PART. I JUST THINK HIGHLY IRRESPONSIBLE OF GM TO NOT NOTIFY ME OF THE POTENTIAL ISSUE. SHAME ON GM.

WHILE DRIVING OUR 2006 GMC ENVOY DENALI ON A PAVED ROAD IN THE MORNING OF MAY 29TH, THE READ WINDOW EXPLODED IN TINY PIECES. NO ONE WAS LOCATED IN THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE AT THE TIME AND NO VEHICLES WERE ON THE ROAD AT THE TIME. THE MORNING TEMP. WAS AROUND 35 DEGREES. SIMILAR INCIDENTS HAVE BEEN REPORTED OF THE REAR WINDOW EXPLODING. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 GMC ENVOY DENALI. THE CONTACT STATED THAT IN OCTOBER 2009, HE NOTICED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE WOULD "FLUTTER" AND REGISTER THAT IT WAS EMPTY WHEN HE ADDED GASOLINE TO THE FUEL TANK. AFTER CONSUMING FIVE TO SEVEN GALLONS OF FUEL, THE FUEL GAUGE WOULD BEGIN WORKING NORMAL UNTIL THE IT WAS TIME TO ADD THE MAXIMUM AMOUNT OF FUEL IN THE TANK. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ALSO ILLUMINATED AND THE HEATER WOULD BLOW COLD AIR ON THE DRIVER SIDE AND HOT AIR ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE SENDING UNIT IN THE FUEL TANK WAS REPLACED AND THE HEATER WAS REPROGRAMMED; HOWEVER, THE HEATER STILL DID NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 40,000. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 46,000.

I WAS PULLING UP TO PARK IN A PARKING LOT.I HAD TOTAL BRAKE FAILURE. THE ELECTRONIC SAFETY FEATURES FAILED- AND THERE WAS NO STOPPING THE ENVOY. I SLID UP THE CURB AND INTO THE BUILDING.

ON MAY 10, 2011 THE REAR SPOILER (WITH THIRD BRAKE LIGHT) FLEW OFF THE BACK OF MY 2006 GMC ENVOY DENALI XL SHORTLY AFTER ENTERING THE HIGHWAY. LUCKY FOR ME IT WAS CRUSHED BY A PASSING TRACTOR TRAILER INSTEAD OF HITTING SOMEONE'S WINDSHIELD. GMC SAID THAT SINCE MY SUV WAS 6 YEARS OLD AND OVER 100K MILES I "SHOULD EXPECT " THESE KIND OF PROBLEMS. ON JULY 24, 2011 SHORTLY AFTER ENTERING THE HIGHWAY THE ENTIRE LIFTGATE WINDOW PULLED AWAY FROM THE VEHICLE. I AM ABOUT TO OPEN ANOTHER COMPLAINT WITH GMC, BUT EXPECT LITTLE HELP FROM THEM. APPARENTLY THE WINDOW AND SPOILER ARE BOTH ATTACHED WITH DOUBLE SIDED TAPE ON THIS MODEL YEAR.A DEFINITE DESIGN FLAW. IT IN MY OPINION IS A HAZARD TO ANYONE DRIVING BEHIND ONE OF THESE VEHICLES AND SHOULD BE RECALLED AND THE WINDOWS AND SPOILERS "BOLTED" INTO PLACE. *TR

WE OWN A 2006 GMC ENVOY DENALI XL WE NOTICE THAT THE VEHICLE'S REAR SUSPENSION AIR RIDE AIR BAGS WERE DEFLATING.KNOW IT GOT WORST ,THEY DEFLATE WHILE DRIVING, ONCE THEY DEFLATE COMPLETELY WHILE DRIVING IT MAKES IT VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE BECAUSE ALL THE WEIGHT SITS ON THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE,WHITCH MAKES THE FRONT VERY LIGHT AND THE VEHICLE TRENDS TO GLYED SIDE TO SIDE .JUST LAST NITE COMMING BACK FROM DINNER THE BAGS DEFLATED WHILE DRIVING AT 65 MPH ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE BECAUSE IT STATED GLYDING SIDE TO SIDE.IS ANYBODY OUT THERE WITH SAME VEHICLE AND SIMILAR ISSUE?

MY WIFE WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT LAST NIGHT IN WHICH THE VEHICLE, A 2006 GMC ENVOY DENALI WAS TOTALED, BUT NEITHER AIR BAD DEPLOYED. *TR

I AM WRITING IN REGARD TO A FULL SIZED FAMILY VEHICLE THAT I LEASED IN 2006. I LEASED A 3 ROW 2006 ENVOY DENALI XL BY GM. I ALREADY HAD A 14 YEAR OLD SON AND DID NOT THINK I WAS ABLE TO HAVE MORE CHILDREN. HOWEVER, I HAPPILY DISCOVERED THAT MY HUSBAND AND I WERE EXPECTING IN MARCH OF 2007. THE ISSUE WITH MY VEHICLE IS THAT IT DOES NOT HAVE THE LATCH SYSTEM AVAILABLE IN THE CENTER OF THE SECOND ROW, WHICH IS WHERE I BELIEVE THE CARSEAT IS SAFEST. IRONICALLY, MY HUSBAND HAS A 2000 GMC EXTENDED CAB WHICH HAS THE LATCH SYSTEM IN ALL THREE SEATS OF THE 1/2 SECOND ROW. I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP, GM DIRECTLY, ETC. NO ONE HAS A SOLUTION TO THIS ISSUE. MY ARGUMENT IS THAT IF IN A CASH WITH THE CURRENT VEHICLE SPECS, THE SIDE AIRBAGS COULD DEPLOY, THUS HARMING MY DAUGHTER IN THE SIDE POSITION. HOWEVER, I BELIEVE THIS LACK OF THE LATCH SYSTEM IN THE CENTER IS AN OBVIOUS DEFECT THAT SHOULD BE CORRECTED. I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY SUPPORT YOU COULD PROVIDE. *TR
