THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT CONNECTIONS LOCATED IN THE REAR TAILGATE ARE SEVERELY CORRODED AND WILL NOT LIGHT UP WHEN BRAKING. THIS CONDITION DOES NOT ALLOW PASSING OF STATE INSPECTION. THE ENTIRE BRAKE LIGHT ASSEMBLY AND WIRE HARNESS MUST TO REPLACED TO PASS STATE VEHICLE INSPECTION. THIS CONDITION IS CONTINUOUS, WHEN PARKED, WHEN DRIVING (WE FOLLOWED IT AROUND THE BLOCK TO SEE IF IT JIGGLED ON), I HAVE NOTHING TO UPLOAD BECAUSE THE BRAKE LIGHT WILL NOT LIGHT UP.

I WAS DOING A REAR BRAKE JOB AND SMELLED GASOLINE, SO I WENT UNDER THE VEHICLE AND OBSERVED THERE WAS A WET SPOT ON THE REAR OF THE FUEL TANK. UPON CLOSER EXAMINATION I FOUND THE INLET PART OF THE FUEL TANK WAS BROKEN AND ALLOWING FUEL TO EXIT THE TANK, CAN WE SAY FIRE RISK, SO I WENT ONLINE TO TRY TO PURCHASE A REPLACEMENT TANK AND I FOUND WHERE SEVERAL PEOPLE HAD HAD THIS SAMEPROBLEM, BUT NO RECALL IS IN PLACE ?????

VEHICLE HAS HAD STRONG ODOR OR RAW FUEL COMING FROM DRIVING SIDE WHEEL WELL. HAD MECHANIC CHECK THIS OUT AND I WAS TOLD THIS HAS A FUEL LEAK NEAR THE FUEL FILTER / FILLER NECK AND POSSIBLE GAS TANK ISSUE WHICH IS CLOSE TO THE EXHAUST PIPE. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE FROM GM OWNERS BUT RECALL HAS NOT BEEN ADVISED. INFORMED GM OF ISSUE ON 10/26 BUT THEY WILL NOT FIX. THIS WILL COST UPWARDS OF $1100-$1600 TO FIX. *TR

2004 ENVOY XUV, IMPECCABLY MAINTAINED, CAR WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVE WAY AND I STARTED IT TO GO TO THE STORE AND IT STARTED CHUGGING AND THEN ALMOST DIED, BUT THEN WENT BACK TO NORMAL BUT THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON AND REDUCED ENGINE POWER LIGHTS ILLUMINATED ON DASH.TURNED OFF ENGINE. RESTARTED, AND THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT WAS STILL THERE SO MY HUSBAND HOOKED UP HIS CODE READER AND IT HAD THE CODE P1680 ( THROTTLE BODY POSTIONING CENSOR.) AND THIS ISN'T THE FIRST TIME IT'S DONE IT BUT THE ENGINE LIGHT HAS ALWAYS JUST FLASHED IT WOULD NEVER STAY ON SO WE COULD READ THE CODE. BUT IN ORDER TO FIX THIS YOU HAVE TO BUY A WHOLE NEW THROTTLE BODY HOUSING BECAUSE THE CENSOR IS BUILT INTO IT. AND IT ISN'T CHEAP. AT AUTOZONE IT IS $280.00. AND YOU HAVE TO ALSO BUY A GASKET FOR IT AND NEW INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKETS BECAUSE TO REMOVE THE THROTTLE BODY HOUSING WHICH IS CONNECTED TO THE MANIFOLD YOU HAVE YO REMOVE THE MANIFOLD ALSO. HOW IN THE WORLD DOES GM EXPECT US TO BE ABLE TO FIX THIS ISSUE IF IT'S ALWAYS SO MUCH MONEY FOR PARTS FOR THESE CARS. AND I ALSO HAVE ISSUES WITH MY BACK TAILGATE AND BOTH BIG WINDOW MOTORS. I HAVE REPLACED ONE BUT STILL SAVING UP TO REPLACE THE MIDDLE ONE AND I'VE ALSO HAD ISSUES WITH MY GAS TANK WHICH IS $677.00 OR MORE AT THE DEALERS FOR A NEW GAS TANK BECAUSE U CAN'T JUST FIX THE FILLER HOSE. SUCH FAILURES WILL EVENTUALLY KILL SOMEONE. SO I THINK GMC NEEDS TO TAKE A LONGER LOOK AT THESE GMC ENVOY XUVS AND GET SOME RECALLS OUT TO FIX THESE DANGEROUS PROBLEMS. AND HONOR ALL CARS THAT COME IN NO MATTER WHAT. BECAUSE WE HAD TO FIX THE GAS TANK ISSUE OURSELVES BECAUSE WE COULD NOT AFFORD TO BUY A NEW GAS TANK.

STARTED SMELLING GAS, STARTED DRIPPING FUEL. AFTER INVESTIGATING THE FUEL LINES COMING OUT OF THE FUEL PUMP WERE SEVERELY CORRODED AT THE TOP OF THE GAS TANK. DRIPPING GAS COULD HAVE CAUGHT FIRE. LEARNED THERE WAS A TSB ON THIS AND EXTENDED WARRENTY DUE TO CORROSION OF FUEL LINES. THE WARRENTY WAS FOR 10 YEARS OR 150K. THE VEHICLE IS NOW 11 YEARS OLD. I HAVE LIVED IN THE SAME HOUSE FOR EIGHT YEARS AND NEVER RECEIVED A RECALL OR TSB NOTICE FROM GMC. OVER 800$ FOR A NEW FUEL PUMP AND TO DROP GAS TANK FOR REPAIRS. WHILE THE VEHICLE IS A 2004 IT ONLY HAS 67K ON IT.

ABOUT 9-10 MONTHS AGO STARTED NOTICING A FUEL SMELL AROUND BACK OF TRUCK. REPLACED GAS CAP, BUT THE ODOR CONTINUED. INQUIRED AT LOCAL DEALER, BUT WAS TOLD THEY COULD NOT DETERMINE THE CAUSE. TRIED A LOCAL MECHANIC THAT I HAD USED BEFORE, BUT AT THAT TIME, THEY CLAIMED THEY FOUND NO CAUSE EITHER. ON MY THIRD TRIP TO LOCAL MECHANIC, WAS INFORMED THAT THERE IS A CRACK IN MY FILLER/GAS TANK CAUSING THE SMELL. FINALLY THEY FOUND THE CAUSE ONLY TO INFORM ME THAT NOW MY TRUCK IS BEYOND THE MILEAGE AND/OR DATE OF THE 'RECALL' THAT I WAS NEVER INFORMED ABOUT BY GMC ABOUT MY GAS TANK, AND IT WILL ONLY COST "ABOUT" $1200 TO REPLACE MY GAS TANK. I'VE RESIDED IN THE SAME HOME WELL LONGER THAN I'VE OWNED MY TRUCK, SO MY HOME ADDRESS, PHONE NUMBER AND EMAIL ARE ALL STILL THE SAME AS THEY WERE THEN, AND HAD NO NOTIFICATION THAT THEIR WAS ANY TYPE OF RECALL ON MY TRUCK. HAVE TRIED EMAILING AND SNAIL MAILING GMC ON MANY NUMEROUS OCCASIONS TO SEE IF I COULD GET ANY HELP WITH THE UNKNOWN OF RECALL, BUT HAVE YET TO RECEIVE ANY ANSWER WHAT'S SO EVER FROM THEM AT ALL. OBVIOUSLY, IF I HAD THE DISPOSABLE INCOME, I WOULD NOT BE PURSUING ANOTHER SOLUTION, BUT LIKE MANY, I CONTINUE TO LIVE PAYCHECK TO PAYCHECK AND MY TRUCK IS THE MAIN LIFELINE TO MAINTAIN WHAT LITTLE I CAN PROVIDE. IF YOU COULD PASS ALONG ANY INFORMATION ABOUT POSSIBLE RECALL ASSISTANCE I CAN RECEIVE, IT WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. THANK YOU *TR

MY AIRBAG LIGHT REMAINS ON, INDICATING THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM. THE DEALER CLAIMS THAT THE BAG WILL EITHER NOT DEPLOY, OR SUDDENLY DEPLOY FOR NO REASON UNLESS I REPLACE IT. I WAS TOLD THIS WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALLS...BUT IT IS CLEARLY A SAFETY ISSUE. I DON'T FEEL THAT I SHOULD PAY FOR THE REPLACEMENT.

AFTER REFUELING THE VEHICLE, A STRONG ODOR OF GASOLINE WAS PRESENT AND THE "SERVICE VEHICLE SOON" LIGHT WAS LIT. USING THE ON-STAR VEHICLE DIAGNOSTIC SERVICE, THE DIAGNOSTIC CODE INDICATED A FUEL SYSTEM LEAK OR LOOSE GAS CAP. HOWEVER, UPON INSPECTING THE VEHICLE IT WAS FOUND THAT THE FUEL TANK INLET CHECK VALVE, WHICH IS PART OF THE FUEL TANK, WAS FRACTURED AND LEAKING FUEL. IN CHECKING WITH GMC, THERE WAS AN EXISTING NHTSA ACTION NUMBER: PE07014 CONCERNING THIS DEFECT FOR MY MAKE/MODEL/YEAR VEHICLE. A GMC SPECIAL COVERAGE POLICY EXTENSION (07099A) WAS ALSO IN EFFECT SINCE 2007 FOR 10 YEARS OR 150,000 MILES TO EFFECTIVELY REPAIR THIS KNOWN FUEL TANK DEFECT. THIS REPAIR INVOLVES A COMPLETE REPLACEMENT OF THE FUEL TANK. HOWEVER, GMC REFUSED TO REPLACE THE FUEL TANK AND COVER THE COST OF REPAIR BECAUSE MY VIN NUMBER WAS NOT IN THE LISTED RANGE. IN TRYING TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE IT WAS FOUND THAT THESE FUEL TANKS ARE ON BACKORDER FROM GM AS I SUSPECT MANY GMC ENVOY OWNERS ARE NOW BECOMING AWARE OF THIS SERIOUS DEFECT AND WERE NOT INFORMED AT THE INITIAL RECALL BECAUSE LIKE MY VEHICLE, THEY WERE NOT ON THE VIN NUMBER COVERAGE LIST. OBVIOUSLY THE GM VIN NUMBER RANGE FOR THIS DEFECT IS INCORRECT AND SHOULD BE EXPANDED TO COVER ALL KNOWN 2002-2004 ENVOY, ENVOY XL AND ENVOY XUV MODEL VEHICLES. THE COST OF REPAIR WAS OVER $1400. GMC IS THE ONLY SOURCE FOR THIS FUEL TANK AS THERE ARE NO OTHER OEM VENDORS. THIS IS A DANGEROUS DEFECT OF WHICH I BELIEVE MANY GMC ENVOY OWNERS ARE NOT AWARE OF AND CAN LEAD TO EXPLOSION AND SERIOUS INJURY IF LEFT UNDETECTED. GMC NEEDS TO RE-EVALUATE THE VIN NUMBER RANGES AND NOTIFY ALL MAKE/MODEL/YEAR OWNERS IMMEDIATELY TO CHECK FOR FUEL TANK LEAKAGE AND IF NECESSARY, COVER THE COST OF REPLACEMENT AND REPAIR. I HAVE SAVED THE FUEL TANK AND REPAIR RECEIPTS AND CAN SUPPLY PICTURES OF THE DEFECT IF REQUIRED/REQUESTED.

FIRST NOTICED REDUCED RADIO VOLUME AS IF SPEAKERS WERE NOT COMPLETELY CONNECTED. THEY RADIO WOULD WORK CORRECTLY FROM TIME TO TIME. SERVICE DEPT SAID IT WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE ENTIRE DASH SYSTEM. THEN NOTICED REAR DOOR/TAILGATE WOULD NOT OPEN AS A DOOR, NEXT THE TAILGATE STOPPED FUNCTIONING ALL TOGETHER; THIS MAKES THE REAR PART OF THE XUV USELESS AND DANGEROUS. DEALER STATED THAT IS ELECTRONIC AND THAT ALL TAILGATE/REAR DOOR HINGES RUSTED DUE TO WATER COMING IN WHERE REAR WINDOW IS/ ESTIMATE IS OVER $650.00 AND IT WOULD HAPPEN AGAIN!!! NEXT THE DRIVER'S DOOR WILL NOT UNLOCK EXCEPT BY MANUAL UNLOCKING FROM INSIDE AND SOMETIME THE KEY WILL NOT UNLOCK TO DRIVER'S DOOR. KEY FOB WILL NOT WORK ON DRIVER'S DOOR, TAILGATE/REAR DOOR; HOWEVER, KEY FOB WORKS ON PASSENGER DOORS. DEALER STATED THAT THE TAILGATE/REAR DOOR ISSUE HAS A HISTORY OF THIS HAPPENING SO WHY ISN'T THERE A RECALL???? WHEN WILL GMC MAKE THIS RIGHT??? *TR

WE BOUGHT NEW A 2004 GMC XUV. FROM THE BEGINNING WE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE IGNITION SWITCH. THE CAR WOULD TURN OFF WHILE DRIVING. ALSO, WHEN PARKED THE IGNITION SWITCH WOULD NOT COMPLETELY TURN OFF. THE DASH LIGHTS WOULD REMAIN ON IF YOU DO NOT WIGGLE THE IGNITION SWITCH. WHEN A FEW DAYS YOU COME BACK THE BATTERY WOULD BE DEAD. THE DEALER WOULD NOT FIX IT. PROBLEM STILL EXIST. WE KEEP A BATTERY JUMPER IN THE CAR SINCE NEW SO WE ARE NOT LEFT STRANDED. THE REAR AND MIDDLE WINDOW HAVE FAILED FOUR TIMES. WHEN THIS HAPPENS YOU CANNOT OPEN THE BACK GATE OR OPEN THE ROOF WHICH I FEEL IS DANGEROUS. YOU CANNOT GET IN OR OUT FOR THERE IS NO RELEASE. FIXED FOUR TIMES AND THE WINDOW WENT DOWN AGAIN AT 74,000 MILES AND GATE IS LOCK AGAIN. IT HAS BEEN REPAIRED BY THE DEALER AND PRIVATE MECHANICS BUT, THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. WE NOW HAVE A SPEEDOMETER AND GAUGES THAT ARE NOT ACCURATE. GAUGE LIGHTS COME ON THEN GO OFF ERRATICALLY. AT THE SAME TIME OUR AIR CONDITIONER BLOWS ONLY ON OUR FEET. THE MECHANICS SAY THE ENTIRE CONTROL PANEL NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. FIVE MONTHS LATER THE AIR CONDITIONER WORKS AGAIN. THIS WILL PROBABLY BE OUR LAST GM CAR. *TR
