WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT NORMAL OPERATING SPEED VEHICLE LOSES OIL PRESSURE CAUSING IT TO DROP TO 0 AND MESSAGE APPEARS TO STOP ENGINE. BOTH INCIDENTS ARE SAFETY HAZARDS AND CAN CAUSE SERIOUS LIFE AN DEATH INCIDENTS IF ISSUES ARE NOT ADDRESSED BY THE CORPORATION. THIS OCCUR ON INTERSTATE 66 IN WASHINGTON, DC. IMMEDIATE RECALL OF ALL VEHICLES FROM GMC NEEEDS TO BE INITIATED.

THE FUEL INLET SEAL ON THE TOP OF THE FUEL TANK HAD SEPARATED CAUSING A SMELL OF FUEL AND ALLOWING MATTER TO ENTER THE FUEL TANK FROM THE TOP...POSSIBLY CAUSING THE PREMATURE FAILING OF THE FUEL PUMP. WE UNDERSTAND GMC HAS EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON THE VEHICLE FOR THIS ISSUE TO 150,000 MILES. OUR VEHICLE HAD OVER 155,000 MILES WHEN THE PROBLEM OCCURED BUT WE NEVER RECEIVED NOTIFICATION FROM GMC OF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. HAD WE RECEIVED THIS NOTIFICATION WE WOULD HAVE TAKEN IN THE VEHICLE FOR AN IMMEDIATE REPAIR. THE FUEL PUMP FAILED AND WE HAD TO PURCHASE A NEW FUEL TANK (AS A RESULT OF THE FAULTY TOP SEAL) AND FUEL PUMP...COSTING US ALMOST $1,700. WE HAVE A COPY OF THE REPAIR BILL BUT I AM UNABLE TO SCAN AND UPLOAD IT HERE AT THIS TIME... I AM IN THE MILITARY AND WILL BE MOVING TO KOREA IN APRIL, 2016

MY CAR WILL SHUT OFF WHEN I AM EITHER TURNING OR SLOWING DOWN WITHOUT ANY WARNING, I PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL, TURN THE KEY OFF THEN ON AGAIN AND IT STARTS LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED. THE ENGINE DOESN'T SHOW ANY WARNING LIGHTS IT JUST SHUTS OFF. THIS HAS HAPPENED NOW ABOUT 6 TIMES. I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER, BUT IF I AM GIVEN AN IDEA OF WHAT TO LOOK FOR I CAN TAKE IT TO MY MECHANIC WHO IS VERY QUALIFIED AND DID REPLACE A SENSOR THAT WENT BAD. PLEASE HELP

DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON THE HIGHWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 75MPH, GAS GAUGE WENT COMPLETELY DOWN TO E WITH A FULL TANK. THE NEEDLE WAS BASICALLY READING IN THE SAME POSITION AS WHEN IT IS IN THE OFF POSITION. AFTER THAT HAPPENED THE VEHICLE SPEEDOMETER STARTED READING INCORRECT SPEEDS I WILL BE AT A DEAD STOP AND AT A STOP LIGHT AND MY SPEEDOMETER WILL BE READING 75 MPH STUCK. I KNOW THERE WAS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT IN 2007 APPROXIMATELY AND LISTED CERTAIN GM VEHICLES BUT THIS ONE WAS NOT INCLUDED. I THINK THAT GM NEEDS TO LOOK AT THIS AFFECTING OTHER MODELS AND MAKES THEY REPLACED SOME VEHICLES WITH THIS ISSUE AND THE PROBLEM LIES WITH THE STEP MOTOR IN THE CLUSTER GAUGE. IF YOU TAKE THE GM DEALERSHIP THEY WANT TO CHARGE YOU $500 DOLLARS TO REPAIR ON A ISSUE THAT IS BEING REPLACED ON OTHER MODELS. PLEASE PLEASE GET THIS TO BE RECALL THIS IS A ISSUE THAT WILL CAUSE SOMEONE TO GET HURT VERY BAD IN A ACCIDENT. *TR

MY DAD WAS DRIVING HIS 2003 GMC ENVOY XL HOME FROM WORK AND HE FELT A SMALL EXPLOSION AND SAW BLACK SMOKE OUT OF HIS REAR VIEW MIRROR. SO HE PULLED OVER, GOT OUT, AND THERE WERE FLAMES UNDERNEATH THE CAR. WITHIN 5-10 MINUTES THE CAR EXPLODED. A FIRE FIGHTER AND STATE TROOPER PULLED OVER TO HELP HIM, AND THEY BOTH SAID THE FIRE LOOKED LIKE IT STARTED FROM A FUEL LEAK BECAUSE THE FLAMES WERE "DRIPPING" UNDER THE CAR. AFTER RESEARCHING RECALLS AND COMPLAINTS, I AM INFURIATED THAT THERE WERE SO MANY COMPLAINTS FILED OVER THIS PROBLEM, AND EVEN AN INVESTIGATION WAS DONE, BUT IT WAS NOT CONSIDERED SERIOUS ENOUGH TO BE A RECALL. I CAN'T EVEN THINK ABOUT WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF HE HAD WAITED TO PULL OVER AT THE NEXT EXIT OR THE FIRST EXPLOSION HAD BEEN BIGGER. APPARENTLY, THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH ALMOST ALL YEARS OF THIS MODEL SINCE 2002. I HOPE NOTHING LIKE THIS, OR SOMETHING WORSE, HAPPENS TO ANYONE ELSE. *TR ..

IT'S SEEMS CRAZY TO ME THAT THIS AGENCY THAT WAS CREATED TO PROTECT CONSUMERS FROM FAULTY VEHICLES CAN LET SO MANY COMPLAINTS AGAINST THIS MANUFACTURER THAT WAS BAILED OUT BY TAXPAYERS MONEY CAN BE SO BLIND TO THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE ON GMC PART. I HAVE SPENT COUNT LESS HOURS AND WAY TOO MUCH MONEY ON THIS VEHICLE, ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT MANY OTHER CONSUMERS ARE REPORTING THE SAME PROBLEMS. I HAVE LITERALLY SAT DOWN AND CRIED VOWING NEVER TO BY ANOTHER AMERICAN MADE CAR BECAUSE THEY ARE PIECES OF JUNK (AND THAT IS PUTTING IT NICELY). I HAVE PAID TO REPLACE THE OXYGEN SENSOR AND ALL THAT GOES WITH THAT; THE CATALYST CONVERTER TWICE; THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM THROUGHOUT THE VEHICLE AND NOW MY RADIO DOESN'T WORK BECAUSE THERE IS A SHORT THAT IS DRAINING THE BATTERY WHEN THE CAR IS TURNED OFF; THE SPEED CONTROL (MPH/RPM) DOESN'T WORK AND I ONLY PRAY THAT I'M NOT SPEEDING WHILE I'M DRIVING; THE REAR WIPER BLADE WORKS WHEN IT FEELS LIKE IT; MY CAR INTERIOR CONSTANTLY SMELLS LIKE GASOLINE AND WHEN I'M FILLING UP MY TANK IT THERE IS ALWAYS SPILLAGE; MY SES LIGHT CONSTANTLY STAYS ON AND SINCE MY STATE PRACTICES EMISSION CONTROL I HOLD MY BREATH AND PRAY THAT I PASS THE TEST SO I CAN LEGALLY DRIVE MY CAR. THESE ARE JUST SOME OF THE PROBLEMS THAT I FACE WITH THIS CAR AND FRANKLY THIS YEAR I'M NOT WORKING SO COMING UP WITH THE MONEY TO PAY AGAIN TO HAVE A MECHANIC REMOVE THE SES LIGHT SO I CAN GO HAVE THE EMISSION TESTING PERFORMED IS RIDICULOUS AND DRAINING A WALLET THAT IS VERY MUCH EMPTY. MY CAR NOW HAS MORE MILEAGE & I HAVEN'T HEARD MY RADIO IN OVER 2 YEARS BECAUSE THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT IS WRONG SO THEY JUST DISCONNECTED IT. WHY HAVEN'T THE NHTSA/DOT REQUIRED GMC TO FIX WHAT THEY KNOW IS BROKEN AND A HAZARD ON THE ROADS? I WOULD STRONGLY RECOMMEND THAT THE NHTSA TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY BEFORE SOMEONE LOSES CONTROL AND PEOPLE LIVES ARE LOST. DON'T LET THIS BECOME ANOTHER TOYOTA ISSUE. *TR

(2003 GMC ENVOY XL) I HAVE RECENTLY FOUND THAT MY WIFE AND KIDS HAVE BEEN RIDING AROUND IN A VEHICLE THAT WAS AN EXPLOSION WAITING TO HAPPEN. GENERAL MOTORS HAS EXTENDED THEIR WARRANTY ON FUEL TANK ISSUES 3 TIMES BECAUSE OF A FLAWED DESIGN. I HAD NO KNOWLEDGE OF THIS BEFORE PURCHASING, AS I BELIEVE I AM THE SECOND OWNER OF THIS VEHICLE. I HAVE SINCE SEEN THAT THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO YOUR ATTENTION BUT NOT TO THE MAGNITUDE TO WHICH IT IS OCCURRING. I WONDER IF SOMEONE HAS TO DIE A FIERY DEATH BEFORE THIS ISSUE IS ADDRESSED SERIOUSLY ? I HAVE COMPILED MANY ACCOUNTS OF CUSTOMERS COMPLAINING OF THIS ISSUE AND HAVE RECORDS TO SHARE. I HAVE CONTACTED GM CUSTOMER SUPPORT, ONLY TO BE PUT ON HOLD FOR A TOTAL OF 153 MINUTES IN THE REALM OF 4 CALLS WITH NO RESOLUTION. THIS ENGINEERING FAILURE CONSIST OF GREAT NUMBERS STILL ON THE ROAD. UNLUCKY ONES LIKE MYSELF WILL NOT HAVE ANY KNOWLEDGE OF THIS UNTIL TOTAL FAILURE OCCURS AND AT THAT TIME GM'S POOR DESIGN BECOMES THE BURDEN OF THE CURRENT OWNER. I NEED HELP UNDERSTANDING HOW SUCH A SAFETY RISK CAN BE SWEPT UNDER THE RUG WITH 493,579 OF THESE VEHICLES BEING SOLD. I HAVE FOUND THAT THE DESIGN WAS SO BAD THAT AFTERMARKET SUPPLIERS DO NOT EVEN OFFER THIS TANK. THE ONLY PLACE TO GET ONE IS FROM GM DEALER AT A PRICE OF $650.00, WHICH IS EXORBITANT FOR A PIECE OF PLASTIC. I NEED HELP WITH THIS MATTER BUT IT'S NOT JUST ABOUT ME, YOUR ACTIONS COULD SAVE SOMEONE'S LIVES ! *TR

I HAVE A 2003 GMC ENVOY. FROM THE BEGINNING I'VE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE ELECTRICAL WORKING PROPERLY (REARVIEW MIRRORS, SEAT CONTROLS, ETC). ALSO, MY FUEL INDICATOR AND SPEEDOMETER BOTH WENT OUT AT THE SAME TIME. I BELIEVE GMC SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE DEFAULT AND REQUEST A RECALL. I HAVE READ NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS DEALING WITH THE VERY SAME ISSUES ON MODELS FROM 2003 THRU 2011. *TR

I HAVE A 2003 GMC ENVOY THAT HAS THE FUEL GAUGE ISSUE AS WELL. FOR YEARS I ALWAYS HAVE TO MAKE SURE I HAVE GAS IN THE TANK BECAUSE I REALLY NEVER KNOW HOW MUCH GAS A HAVE. I CAN BUT $30 OR $40 IN GAS IN MY TANK AND MY GAUGE WILL READ WHATEVER IT WANTS. IT HAS SHOWN THAT I HAVE GAS AND I HAVE RAN OUT TWICE WHILE DRIVING. IT IS SCARY WITH TWO CHILDREN IN THE CAR. I'VE SEEN THAT THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM IN OTHER ENVOYS PARTICULARLY 2005 AND UP, BUT ALSO SEE THERE ARE INTERNET POSTS ON COMPLAINTS REGARDING 2003 MODELS AS WELL. *TR

THIS IS IN ADDITION TO A PREVIOUS COMPLAINT (TCN: DBN20-8138 REFERS. YESTERDAY MY WIFE WAS DRIVING MY '03 GMC ENVOY WHEN IT STOPPED AT ONE OF THE BUSIEST INTERSECTIONS IN TOWN. GAS GAUGE REGISTERED 1/4 FUEL. AFTER PUSHING IT TO A PARKING LOT AND ATTEMPTING TO START THE ENGINE, IT STARTED TO FLUTTER AND STOP, THEN NOTHING. THINKING IT WAS THE BATTERY, HAD IT RECHARGED AND REINSTALLED, SAME SYMPTOMS. THOUGHT OF OTHER OWNERS OF '03 ENVOYS HAVING PROBS WITH FUEL GAUGE, DECIDED TO PUT MORE FUEL WHICH I WAS ABLE TO START THE ENGINE AND DRIVE IT TO MY RESIDENCE. THE FUEL GAUGE IS A PROBLEM IN ADDITION TO THE RPM GAUGE AS PREVIOUSLY SUBMITTED. THERE ARE MANY ENVOY OWNERS EXPERIENCING THESE SAME PROBLEMS WITH ADDITIONAL ONES AS SEE ON EDMUNDS ENVOY FORUM. THIS COULD POSE AS A SAFETY HAZARD, ESPECIALLY IF MY WIFE WAS TURNING INTO TRAFFIC AND IT SUDDENLY DIED ON HER, REAR-END COLLISION WOULD HAVE BEEN POSSIBLE. *TR

I HAVE A 2003 GMC ENVOY THAT STARTED SMELLING LIKE GAS. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY STATED THE FILLER TUBE AND FUEL ASSEMBLY WAS UNDER WARRANTY. HOWEVER THE COSTLY FUEL TANK WAS NOT. HOW CAN YOU HAVE AN ITEM DIRECTLY RELATED TO CORROSION THAT CAUSED THE TANK PROBLEM IN THE FIRST PLACE NOT BE REIMBURSABLE. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED IN GM TO ALLOW CUSTOMERS TO RIDE AROUND WITH SUCH A DANGEROUS VEHICLE. SAFETY IN NOT IMPORTANT TO THEM. *TR

I HAVE A 2003 GMC ENVOY AND THERE IS A GAS LEAK. I BOUGHT IT IN OCTOBER 2006. IN 2007, I TOOK IT TO A GMC DEALERSHIP FOR THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, THEY SAID THAT IT WAS PROBABLY CAUSED BY MY NOT TIGHTENING THE GAS CAP. SINCE THEN, I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH PUMPING GAS INTO TANK, PROBLEMS WITH A GAS SMELL WHEN THE TANK IS FILLED OR IF I GO OVER A BUMP. NOW, THERE IS REDUCED POWER. HUSBAND SAYS IT IS ON FUEL FILLER NECK. ON SEVERAL WEB PAGES, IT SAYS THERE WAS A RECALL ONLY I AM UNABLE TO FIND ANY INFORMATION ON IT.
