2004 GMC Envoy Xuv Fuel system Problems

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

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

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.

A YEAR AFTER THE PURCHASE OF MY NEW 2004 GMC ENVOY XUV MY SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND AN AUTHORIZED SERVICE TECH SAID I NEEDED A NEW GAS CAP BECAUSE OF A SMALL VAPOR LEAK. I BOUGHT THE NEW CAP AND A FEW MONTHS LATER THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND AGAIN I BOUGHT ANOTHER CAP. FROM THEN I HAD BEEN TOLD BY DIFFERENT MECHANICS THAT THE VAPOR LEAK IS COMING FROM THE NOZZLE THE CAP ATTACHES TO BUT TODAY FOR THE FIRST TIME I WAS TOLD I WOULD FAIL MY SMOG CHECK BECAUSE THE VAPOR LEAK ACCORDING TO THEIR DIAGNOSTICS WAS NOT COMING FROM THE NOZZLE, BUT SOMEWHERE ELSE NEAR THE TANK. AFTER RESEARCH ON RECALLS AND COMPLAINTS, I FOUND OUT THAT MY PROBLEM WAS SIMILAR TO OTHER COMPLAINTS, THAT BEING THE GM SERVICE BULLETIN 05-06-04-014A: INFO - DIAGNOSTIC AIDS FOR TROUBLE CODES P0440, P0455 & / OR P0442 FUEL WAS LEAKING FROM THE CRACK, AND THAT THE 2002 - 2004 ENVOY MAY HAVE ISSUES WITH A CRACK IN THE GAS TANK FILLER NECK AS WELL. I CHECKED OUT THE ASSEMBLY SYSTEM AND YEP MY FILLER TANK CONNECTION FROM HOSE TO TANK IS LOOSE AND SHOWING EVIDENCE OF GAS LEAKING DOWN THE TANK. IT WASN'T A SMALL VAPOR LEAK, IT IS A MUSHROOM CLOUD EVENT JUST WAITING TO HAPPEN TO MY BACKSIDE! THE INTERESTING PART OF THIS DISASTER IS THAT THEY DID THIS AS FAR BACK AS I COULD SEARCH, SO FAR AS EARLY AS 2001. GM HAD ADVISED THEIR MECHANICS THAT THE PROBLEM WAS RESOLVED AND REDESIGN OF THE SYSTEM WAS IN PLACE WITH WELDED UNITS ATTACHING THE COMPONENTS, RATHER THAN RUBBER BOOTING TO PLASTIC TANKS. I HAVE THE INTERNAL MEMO OF THEIR DECLARATIONS FOR THREE YEARS SO FAR. TODAY, I'M IN POSSESSION OF A LOADED BOMB AND SEE THAT TSB'S ARE ISSUED FOR YEARS THROUGH 2009. PLUS THERES A DISCREPANCY WITH SERVICE WARRANTIES OF 10 YEARS OR 120,000 MILES VS 150,000, I HAVE THOSE INTERNAL DOCUMENTS FROM GM TO THE DEALERS AS WELL. I CANT AFFORD THIS. OTHER ENVOY OWNERS I'VE TALKED TO ARE SAYING THE SAME THINGS EXACTLY. *TR

I HAD A 2004 GMC ENVOY XUV AND HAD SEVERAL THINGS GOING WRONG. THE SPEEDOMETER WAS RADICAL, SOME DAYS IT WOULD WORK AND OTHER DAYS NOT. THE BACK WINDOW OF THE VEHICLE WOULD BE DOWN FOR NO REASON AT ALL WHEN I WAS NOT EVEN IN OR NEAR THE CAR. THE ENGINE LIGHT WOULD COME ON AND GO OFF. LIKE A FOOL I JUST PURCHASED A USED 2004 GMC ENVOY XUV, ONLY OWNED IT 2 DAYS AND SMELLED GAS. LOOKED UNDER THE VEHICLE AND THE ENTIRE REAR OF THE UNDERSIDE OF IT WAS COVERED IN GASOLINE. THERE WAS A SMALL PUDDLE ON THE GARAGE FLOOR. TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER AND THEY TOOK OUT THE GAS TANK AND THERE IS A LEAK IN THE FILLER NECK. STILL WAITING TO GET THE CAR BACK, CAN'T FIND PARTS. THIS WILL BE MY LAST ENVOY. *TR

I PURCHASED A 2004 GMC ENVOY XUV AND HAVE SEVERAL SIGNIFICANT PROBLEMS WITH THIS VEHICLE. AFTER RESEARCHING IT SEEM OTHERS HAVE HAD THE SAME TROUBLES. SINCE WE OWNED THE VEHICLE, THE REAR WINDOW IS FOUND DOWN AND NOONE WAS EVEN IN/NEAR THE VEHICLE. IT CONTINUES TO WORK BUT STILL WILL GO DOWN BY ITSELF. A YEAR AGO I HAD TO REPLACE THE FUEL TANK, THIS WAS RIGHT AFTER WE TOOK IT IN FOR INSPECTION ON A RECALL OF SMELLING GAS FUMES WHILE DRIVING AND POSSIBLE CORROSION IN FUEL LINES. OF COURSE THE FUEL LINES WERE NOT CORRODED SO WE WERE TOLD. I FOOTED THE BILL $800+ TO GET A NEW FUEL TANK ,AS NECK ON TANK WAS CRACKED AND WAS TOLD THAT THIS IS WHY WE SMELLED GAS. LUCKILY, I WENT TO MY GARAGE AND SAVED SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS FROM THE DEALERS COST TO REPAIR. LAST WEEKEND 9/10/10 MY FAMILY WAS DRIVING TO TOWN AND THE MIDDLE WINDOW UNEXPECTEDLY DROPPED AND NOW DOES NOT WORK. I RESEARCHED AN IT SEEMS TO BE A REGULATOR ISSUE AND WILL COST AROUND $500, WOW! OVER THE LAST TWO WEEKS THERE IS A RATTLE WHEN WE TURN ON OUR AC. AGAIN AFTER WE WERE IN FOR SERVICE AS WE HAD THE AC CHARGED AT THE START OF SUMMER. I CAN SEE WHERE I HAVE THE SAME TROUBLES AS A LOT OF OTHERS AND FEEL, THE SAME AS THEY DO, LEFT HOLDING THE BAG BY GMC AND NO WAY OUT BUT, TO LOOK FOR A NEW/USED VEHICLE AND GET RID OF THIS VEHICLE. *TR

I HAVE A 2004 SUV XLT. I BOUGHT MY CAR WITH 400 MILES ON IT. I HAD THE GAS TANK REPLACED EARLY ON. WENT BACK TO GMC B/C THEY HAD NOT INSTALLED IT PROPERLY. I'VE HAD BOTH FRONT AND REAR SWAY BARS REPLACED AND BOTH KNOCK SENSORS REPLACED. MY MIDDLE WINDOW DECIDED TO QUIT WORKING AND I HAVEN'T GOTTEN IT FIXED BECAUSE THE GUYS AT THE GMC SERVICE CENTER SAID THEY COULDN'T IMAGINE WHAT IT COULD BE AND THEY WOULD HAVE TO CHARGE ME $100 FOR A DIAGNOSIS!! MY RADIO/CD PLAYER IS ONLY HALF LIT UP AND STOPS WORKING WHEN IT GETS TOO HOT FROM PLAYING A CD... I AM CURRENTLY HAVING ISSUES WITH THE FAN CLUTCH, THERMOSTAT AND A LEAK IN MY FRONT DIFFERENTIAL. MEANWHILE THE GUYS AT THE DEALERSHIP WANTED TO CHARGE ME $1,500 TO REPLACE MY KNOCK SENSORS AGAIN AND DIDN'T EVEN FIND THE LEAK WHEN THEY WERE "DIAGNOSING" MY ISSUE. I TRULY DO LOVE MY CAR, BUT I AM SUPER MAD ABOUT THE MIDDLE WINDOW AND SUPER MAD ABOUT ALL OF THESE ISSUES. I TAKE CARE OF MY CAR AND DO ALL OF THE ROUTINE MAINTENANCES. I THINK I KNOW WHY IT WAS ONLY ON THE MARKET FOR TWO YEARS. PLEASE HELP US GET OUR MIDDLE WINDOWS FIXED. I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING TO CAUSE IT TO STOP WORKING. *TR

MY SPEEDOMETER HAS STOPPED WORKING. THE GAS GAUGE SAYS EMPTY WHEN I HAVE JUST FUELED THE CAR TO FULL. THE CAR WILL SURGE FORWARD WHEN I AM BACKING OUT OF THE DRIVE WAY AND PUTTING CAR IN DRIVE. I HAVE TO IMMEDIATELY PRESS ON THE BRAKE AND RETURN THE CAR TO NEUTRAL POSITION TO STOP FROM RUNNING INTO PARKED CARS OR THE CURB. TONIGHT WE WERE LEAVING THE PARK AND BOTH HEADLIGHTS ( LOW BEAM) ARE NOT WORKING. ALL OTHER LIGHTS AND FLASHERS ON THE CAR WORK. THE INTERIOR LIGHT ON THE LEFT HALF OF THE A/C CONTROLLER DOES NOT WORK.THE MOTOR IN THE REAR WINDOW WENT OUT. THE DEALERSHIP CHARGED ME $ 1000 TO REPLACE THE MOTOR AND THEN THEY ADVISED ME THAT THE MIDDLE WINDOW MOTOR WAS BAD AND THAT WOULD BE AN ADDITIONAL $600 TO REPAIR. I ONLY COULD AFFORD THE BACK WINDOW MOTOR. THIS CAR IS MY ONLY MODE OF TRANSPORTATION AND I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT GM HAS NPT PLACED A RECALL ON ALL OF THESE ISSUES. *TR

SMELL OF GAS INSIDE OF VEHICLE, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON AND NOTICE OF GAS ON GARAGE FLOOR. TOOK VEHICLE TO A MECHANIC AND FOUND OUT THAT THE GAS TANK WAS LEAKING AROUND THE NECK OF THE TANK WHERE THE REFILL HOSE CONNECTS. FOUND OUT THAT CHEVROLET AND GMC HAD A SPECIAL COVERAGE ADJUSTMENT # 07099A ON THIS PROBLEM. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND I WAS TOLD THAT MY VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED ON THIS SCA BECAUSE OF THE VIN NUMBER. I CALLED GMC CUSTOMER SERVICE ON RECALLS AND I WAS TOLD THE SAME THING. THE DEALER AGREED TO PAY 2/3'S OF THE BILL AND I WILL HAVE TO PAY 1/3 OF IT. ON THE SCA SHEET IT LIST THE FOLLOWING FOR MY VEHICLE. THE LAST 8 DIGITS OF THE VIN STARTING WITH 46100001 TO 46116824. MY VEHICLE IS LEAKING SO BADLY THAT I CAN SMELL GAS INSIDE OF THE VEHICLE ALL THE TIME. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. ALSO I PARK MY VEHICLE IN MY GARAGE ALL THE TIME AND THIS IS DANGEROUS. I THINK THAT ALL OF THE 2002 TO 2004 CHEVROLET TRAIL BLAZERS AND GMC ENVOYS WILL HAVE THIS PROBLEM WITH THE LEAKING GAS TANKS. THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE DESIGN OF THE TANK. I WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE TECH AT THE DEALER THAT THEY USE TO HAVE A LOT OF PROBLEMS WITH THE GAS TANKS. HE SAID THAT SINCE THEY HAVE CHANGED THE TANKS OUT ON THE COVERED VEHICLES THAT THEY HAVE HAD NONE OF THE VEHICLES BACK IN WITH LEAKING GAS TANKS. THIS IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED. SOME PEOPLE WOULD NOT NOTICE THIS PROBLEM AND IF THEY HAVE AN ACCIDENT THIS COULD CAUSE MORE INJURIES AND POSSIBLE DEATHS. THIS COULD ALSO CAUSE AN EXPLOSION AROUND SPARKS OR STATIC IN SOMEONE'S GARAGE. *TR
