What this page shows
Everything below is an owner-reported complaint submitted to NHTSA about the 2002 GMC Envoy Xl 370, grouped by the component NHTSA recorded on the report. These are not confirmed defects, and they are not recalls. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a category with more reports in it is not evidence that a part is defective.
Complaints are reports submitted by owners and drivers to NHTSA. They are not verified and do not establish that a defect exists.

SUN SHELL REPLACEMENT ON 2002 ENVOY XL. WE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THIS DEFECTIVE COMPONENT. I WORKED FOR GM AND HAD NO PROBLEMS HAVING THIS DEFECTIVE COMPONENT REPLACED AT 100% DEALER CHARGE. WE PAID $0.000 (NOTHING) GM KNEW THEY HAD PROBLEMS AND DIDN'T' CORRECT THE PROBLEM. OURS FAILED 20 MINUTES AFTER HAVING A TRANSMISSION FLUSH/SERVICE WITH ONLY 35K MILES ON OUR 2002 VEHICLE. I WOULD FIGHT WITH THE DEALER. THERE ARE SERVICE BULLETINS OUT THERE REGARDING THE FAILURE AND REPLACEMENT OF THIS COMPONENT. OURS FAILED WHEN MY SPOUSE TRIED TO ENGAGE THE GEAR INTO REVERSE. GOOD THING THIS DIDN'T' HAPPEN IN AN EMERGENCY SITUATION WHERE SHE NEEDED TO GET OUT OF A BAD SITUATION QUICKLY. THE LOCAL DEALER PAID FOR OUR THIS SHOULD BE THE SAME FOR ALL DEALERS ACROSS THE NATION AS LONG AS IT'S AN APPLE TO APPLE COMPARISON. OWNERS IN ONE STATE SHOULD BE AFFORDED THE SAME REPLACEMENT POLICY AND PRICING AS OWNERS IN OTHER STATES. THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALERS SHOULD TREAT EVERYONE FAIRLY. *JB
Too few reports in this category for a page of its own — they appear in the full complaint list.
Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
