2007 GMC Envoy Denali Electrical Problems

Owner-reported complaints naming the electrical system, filed with NHTSA

Data refreshed

Electrical reportsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

FOR MANY, MANY, MONTHS MY LOW BEAM LIGHTS HAVE BEEN GOING OUT WHILE DRIVING. ALL OTHER LIGHTS INCLUDING THE HIGH BEAMS WILL WORK. IT IS VERY UNSAFE TO BE DRIVING AT NIGHT AND HAVE YOUR LIGHTS GO OUT. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO SEVERAL DIFFERENT AUTO SHOPS, BUT THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. I HAVE SEEN MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE, SO I KNOW IT IS THE VEHICLE. GMC NEEDS TO DO THE RIGHT THING AND FIX THIS PROBLEM. IF GMC WON'T DO IT ON THEIR OWN, THE NHTSA NEEDS TO GET INVOLVED AND GET GMC TO RECALL THESE VEHICLES AND FIX THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE.
