2004 GMC Envoy Xuv complaints

SPEEDOMETER DON'T WORK,GAS GAUGE DON'T WORK, TRANSMISSION IS GOING OUT ETC AND I ONLY HAD THE VEHICLE FOR 9 MONTHS NOW BUT THE PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN FOR ALONG TIME. *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

MY 2004 ENVOY XUV SPEEDODOMETER STUCK AT 55MPH. I SPOKE TO DEALER TECHNICIAN AND WAS TOLD I HAD TO REPLACE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER BECAUSE OF A SMALL THING CALLED A STEPPER MOTOR. THIS SEEMS TO BE AN ON GOING PROBLEM WITH GM VEHICLES. I STRONGLY SUGGEST A SAFETY RECALL BECAUSE THIS IS FAILING ON THOUSANDS OF VEHICLES. *LN

ERRATIC SPEED ODOMETER READINGS, HAPPENS 3-4 TIMES WEEKLY. THIS HAPPENS FROM YOUR ACTUAL SPEED OF 40-60 MPH, YOU LOOK DOWN NEXT SECOND AND YOU ARE GOING 100-120 MPH PER ODOMETER. WHEN YOU COME TO A STOP IT SAYS YOUR STILL GOING 90-110 MPH, ONLY WAY TO RESET YOUR ODOMETER IS TO PULL OVER AND RESTART YOUR CAR ABOUT 50-60 TIMES UNTIL IT SAYS 0 MPH. SOMETIMES THIS WONT LAST BUT 5 MIN... THIS ALSO INCREASES YOUR CARS MILEAGE. GMC WILL NOT REPAIR THIS WITH OUT CHARGING YOU 600 DOLLARS. THIS IS NOT SAFE FOR ANYONE ON THE ROAD AND NOT FAIR TO PEOPLE OWING CARS, OR BUYING CARS TO HAVE NOT ACTUAL MILEAGE ON A CAR NOR TO BE ABLE TO DRIVE SAFELY. UPDATED IVOQ 12/03/10. *TR

THE SPEEDOMETER STICKS AND GIVES THE WRONG SPEED ABOUT 2X A MONTH, ON AVERAGE. THE DEALER WILL NOT REPLACE AND DENIES THERE IS A PROBLEM. *TR

THE SPEEDOMETER ON MY 2004 GMC ENVOY XUV INTERMITTENTLY WORKS. ROUGHLY 10% OF THE TIME, THE GAUGE WILL STOP WORKING COMPLETELY. NOW, THE RPM GAUGE HAS ALSO BEGIN ACTING ERRATICALLY. I HAVE CONTACTED GMC CUSTOMER SUPPORT, AND THEY DIRECTED ME TO THE LOCAL DEALER, WHO WILL CHARGE ME $79 SIMPLY TO "DIAGNOSE" THE PROBLEM, FOLLOWED BY A LIKELY $600 REPAIR TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE CLUSTER. A SIMPLE ONLINE SEARCH OF "2004 GMC ENVOY XUV SPEEDOMETER PROBLEMS" RETURNED 10'S OF THOUSANDS OF HITS, SO IT APPEARS THIS IS A VERY WIDESPREAD PROBLEM. AFTER CHECKING INTO THE SITUATION WITH GM DEALERS THERE IS A RECALL ON THE SIERRA'S AND YUKONS WHICH HAVE THE SAME CLUSTER AS MY VEHICLE BUT GM REFUSES TO STAND BEHIND THE DEFECT ON THE ENVOYS. PARTS HAVE NOT BEEN REPLACED YET ON MY VEHICLE HOPING THAT GM WILL WAKE UP AND REALIZE THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM ON THE ENVOYS AND THAT IT REQUIRES ATTENTION. BELOW IS JUST ONE OF MANY LINKS WHICH HIGHLIGHT THE ISSUE MANY GMC OWNERS ARE FACING: HTTP://WWW.ABOUTAUTOMOBILE.COM/COMPLAINT/2004/GMC/ENVOY/DIGITAL+INSTRUMENT+PANEL. *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

END GATE WINDOW REGULATOR FAILURE. NO REPLACEMENT PART AVAILABLE. *TR

I HAVE A 2004 ENVOY XUV WITH A CRACKED EXHAUST MANIFOLD. MY MECHANIC SAID HE HAS SEEN A LOT OF THESE ON THE 4.2 AND TELLS ME IT IS DUE TO BAD DESIGN. GMC WON'T FIX IT UNLESS I GIVE THEM ABOUT $1,000.00. EXHAUST MANIFOLDS ALMOST NEVER CRACKED IN THE PAST. PLEASE INSIST THEY HELP US LIKE WE HELPED THEM. *TR

2004 GMC ENVOY XUV: THE SPEEDOMETOR FAILED LAST YEAR, AND PROBABLY WASN'T WORKING PROPERLY BEFORE THAT. I SEE THAT A NUMBER OF OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS WITH THEIR GMC'S. *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

THE SPEEDOMETER DOES NOT REGISTER THE CORRECT SPEED. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR OVER A YEAR AND IT IS PRETTY CONSISTENT. CALLED GMC AND WAS TOLD IT WOULD BE FIXED FOR FREE BUT WHEN I WENT TO DEALERSHIP THEY SAID NO. I STILL HAVE THE PROBLEM AND BELIEVE IT SHOULD BE A RECALL. *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

WE HAVE A 2004, GMC ENVOY XUV, WHICH WE PURCHASE BRAND NEW IN 2004. SINCE LAST YEAR WINTER, I NOTICED THAT MY SPEEDOMETER WOULD GET STUCK AND RUN ERRATICALLY, WHICH I THOUGHT AT THE TIME WAS DUE TO THE COLD. OCCASIONALLY TOO, WE'D COME TO THE GARAGE TO FIND THE REAR WINDOW OPEN AND THE TAILGATE UNABLE TO OPEN. DURING THOSE TIMES, WE WERE ABLE TO BRING THE WINDOW BACK UP WITH THE BUTTON INSIDE THE VEHICLE, AS WELL AS UNLOCK THE TAILGATE BY LOCKING AND UNLOCKING THE DOORS WITH THE REMOTE. ALSO, THE TRUCK WOULD STALL DURING DRIVING, ESPECIALLY AT TURNS, BUT WOULD START AGAIN. JUST LAST WEEK, MY WIFE WAS JUST ABOUT TO LEAVE HOME LAST WEEK, WHEN SHE NOTICED THE REAR TAILGATE WINDOW HAD GONE DOWN BY ITSELF AS USUAL; FOLLOWING WHICH ALL ELECTRONIC EFFORTS TO BRING IT UP FAILED, AND THE TAILGATE OR ROOF WOULDN'T OPEN AS WELL. THEN, WE HEARD SOME HUMMING INSIDE THE TAILGATE. MY WIFE LEFT HOME ONLY TO HAVE THE TRUCK'S BATTERY FAIL AT THE LOCAL MALL. SINCE THEN, THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER HAS ALSO CONTINUOUSLY GONE HAYWIRE, WITH THE SPEEDOMETER READING ERRATICALLY AS WELL AS THE OIL PRESSURE GAUGE. THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THERE ARE NO RECALLS REGARDING ANY OF THESE MANUFACTURING DEFECTS, AND MY RESEARCH INDICATES THESE ARE PROBLEMS MOST GMC ENVOY XUV OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING, WITHOUT RECOURSE OF HAVING IT FIXED BY GM AT NO CHARGE. NOW, WE KNOW WHY THEY HAVE LOST THE MARKET SHARE TO JAPAN VEHICLES, BECAUSE OUR NEXT VEHICLE WILL NEVER BE A GM, UNLESS ALL THESE PROBLEMS ARE RECALLED AND FIXED. WE'L

2004 GMC ENVOY SUV, 45,XXX MILES. NOVEMBER 2009 ENVOY WOULD NOT HOLD CHARGE (NEW BATTERY REPLACED 7-09), JUMPED ENVOY AND WOULD LOOSE CHARGE, KEYS ALWAYS WERE LOCKED IN VEHICLE IGNITION. APRIL 2010 AGAIN, VEHICLE WOULD NOT HOLD CHARGE (SOMETHING DRAINING BATTERY - NOTHING LEFT ON). TOOK VEHICLE TO MECHANIC, NO PROBLEMS LOCATED, MECHANIC REPLACED 7-09 BATTERY (FREE), DROVE VEHICLE 4 DAYS AND DID NOT DRIVE FOR 5 DAYS - AGAIN VEHICLE WOULD NOT START (NO LIGHTS, ETC) JUMPED VEHICLE OFF. TOOK VEHICLE BACK TO MECHANIC, NOTHING INDICATED IN STARTER, ALTERNATOR, BATTERY - NOTHING WAS LEFT ON. TOOK HOME AGAIN SAME PROBLEM 4 DAYS RUNNING, 6 DAYS DID NOT DRIVE, VEHICLE WILL NOT START; HAD TO JUMP OFF AGAIN. IT IS CURRENTLY AT THE MECHANIC. IN THE MEANTIME I RESEARCHED AND FOUND GM BULLETIN 04-06-03-002 FOR "MISINDEXED IGNITION SWITCH"; NUMEROUS REPORTS ONLINE OF SAME ISSUE. CURRENTLY ENVOY IS AT MECHANIC AFTER I REPORTED GM BULLETIN. *TR

CLUSTER PANEL ON MY 2004 GMC ENVOY XUV HAS FAILED. GM STATED THEY ARE NOT AWARE OF ANY PROBLEMS WITH THIS TYPE OF CAR. INFORMATION ON THE INTERNET HAS DIFFERENT INFORMATION. I ASKED ABOUT THIS TO GM AND THEY STATED THEY ARE NOT AWARE OF ANYTHING BEING ON THE INTERNET AND CAN NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT IS ON THE INTERNET. *TR

SPEEDOMETER STOPPED WORKING CORRECTLY ON MY 2004 ENVOY, WITH ONLY 24000 MILES ON IT. I WAS ON A TRIP LAST WEEK WHICH CAUSED ME TO GET A SPEEDING TICKET BECAUSE OF THIS. ORIGINALLY IT WAS 10 MPH OFF, BUT NOW IS READING AS HIGH AS 70 MPH WHILE THE VEHICLE IS STANDING STILL. BASED ON OTHER INFO I HAD READ ON THE WEB, THIS HAS BEEN A CONSISTENT PROBLEM WITH GMC ENVOYS YET NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED BY GM AND THE COST TO REPAIR IS VERY HIGH ($500.00 +). THIS IS NOW A VARIABLE PROBLEM THAT SHOWS MY SPEED OFF AS MUCH AS 80 MPH AND COULD HAVE CAUSED ME TO BE TRAVELING AT EXCESSIVE, UNSAFE SPEEDS, IF I TRIED TO USE IT. *TR

THE SPEDOMETER WOULD STICK AT VARIOUS SPEEDS AND DROP BACK TO NORMAL WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STARTED. NOW IT PERMANTELY STUCK AT 120 MPH.

SPEEDOMETER STARTED SHOWING I WAS GOING 90-130MPH WHEN I WAS ON PROBABLY MOVING 50MPH. IT WAS ABOUT 30-50MPH OFF. WHEN CAR IS OFF SPEEDOMETER SHOWS 50MPH. FOUND OUT YOU CAN MAKE SPEEDOMETER DROP 5MPH AT A TIME IF YOU TURN THE CAR ON & OFF ABOUT 20 TIMES IT WILL EVENTUALLY GO TO ZERO MPH. AFTER A FEW DAYS IT DOES THE SAME ERRATIC BEHAVIOR. I HAVE READ OVER HUNDREDS OF POST ONLINE ABOUT THIS ON THIS MAKE AND MODEL ALONE AND THINK THIS IS A VERY BIG SAFETY CONCERN. I NEED HELP AND NEED MY CAR FIXED PLEASE HELP. *TR

2004 GMC ENVOY INSTRUMENT CLUSTER ,SPEEDOMETER STICKS AT 60 MPH,GAS GUAGE DOES NOT WORK,WARNING LIGHTS COME ON AND STAY ON UNTIL YOU STOP AND RESTART AND THEN ,MOST OF THE TIME THEY GO BACK TO NORMAL

2004 GMC ENVOY. SUDDEN MOMENTARY ENGINE SURGE. OCCURRED AT LOW SPEED WITH FOOT ON BRAKE PEDAL. SIX OCCURRENCES , FOUR WITHIN LAST FEW MONTHS. GM DEALER CHECKED SAID ALL SYSTEMS WERE OK, GM CORPORATE NOTIFIED SAID NO HISTORY THIS TYPE OF FAILURE. WHEN SURGE HAPPENED QUICK SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL PREVENTED DAMAGE. ENGINE SURGE LASTED ONLY A FEW SECONDS AND THEN RETURNED TO NORMAL. SINCE PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT GM OFFERS NO HELP OTHER THAN BRING IT BACK TO DEALER FOR RECHECK. *TR

CAR LURCHED FORWARD AND ENGINE SPEEDED UP WHEN PULLING INTO MY DRIVEWAY AT HOME. MOST OF MY DASHBOARD GAUGES HAVE BEEN FAILING OVER THE LAST YEAR INCLUDING THE SPEEDOMETER. I WAS USING THE CRUISE CONTROL PRIOR TO THE EVENT. I THINK IT MAY BE RELATED TO THE COMPUTER. I WAS ABLE TO STOP THE CAR BY TURNING OFF THE ENGINE. THE BRAKES WOULD NOT STOP THE CAR. THE DEALER HAS ADVISE ME THAT THEY KNOW ABOUT THE INSTRUMENT PANEL FAILING BUT NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED. *TR

2004 GMC ENVOY XUV W/76K MILES; SPEEDOMETER IS ERRATIC. SHOWS NO SPEEDS SOMETIMES OR SHOWS SLOW SPEED SOMETIMES OR SHOWS EXCESSIVE SPEED SOMETIMES. DEALER INDICATED GMC YUKONS, FULL SIZE GMC PICKUP AND CADILLAC SUV'S WERE RECALLED FOR DEFECTIVE SPEEDOMETERS.. DEALER STATED NOT ENOUGH REPORTED SPEEDOMETER PROBLEMS WITH ENVOY XUV'S TO WARRANT A SAFETY RECALL. HOW MANY DEFECTIVE SPEEDOMETERS ARE REQUIRED TO WARRANT A SAFETY RECALL? *TR

SPEEDOMETER STUCK AT 120 MPH EVEN SITTING STILL AND TURNED OFF. STARTED A MONTH AGO AND CONTINUALLY GOT WORSE. NOW IT WON'T MOVE AT ALL. VERY DANGEROUS. *TR

SPEEDOMETER FAILED AT 44,000 MILES. GAS GAUGE MISREADS. INSTRUMENT CLUSTER IS BEING REPLACE BY GMC ON OTHER MODELS WITH THE SAME CLUSTER BUT THEY DECIDED NOT TO REPLACE THE ENVOYS CLUSTER. GMC KNOWS THAT THEY HAVE CLUSTERS THAT FAIL AND HAVE EVEN BEEN MONETARY REIMBURSEMENT BY OTHER COMPANIES TO REPLACE BUT STILL DO NOT REPLACE FOR THE ENVOYS. *TR

TOOK VEHICLE IN FOR INSPECTION AND CHECK ENGINE SOON LIGHT WAS ON. A CODE P0455 WAS FOUND WHICH MEANS A LARGE GAS LEAK. IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE GAS LEAK FROM THE GAS TANK SEAL WHERE THE FILLER NECK HOSE ATTACHES. REPAIR IS REPLACE FUEL TANK AS THE FILLER NECK IS BUILT INTO THE GAS TANK. *TR

IN THE PROCESS OF MAKING A LEFT TURN, (DEAD END - NO ONCOMING TRAFFIC) THE VEHICLE FAILED TO GET UP TO SPEED AFTER DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR IN ORDER TO MAKE THE TURN. A WARNING LIGHT CAME ON THAT HAD NEVER BEEN SEEN BEFORE; IT WAS THE "REDUCED ENGINE POWER" LIGHT ALONG WITH THE "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" LIGHT. THE WAY WAS CLEAR TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN REVERSE AND BACK INTO A GAS STATION. A PRAYER WAS SAID BEFORE CONTINUING ON TO THE DESTINATION AT HAND WITH A TRIP TO THE DEALERSHIP IN THE AM. THE VEHICLE WAS TESTED AT THE DEALERSHIP WITH THE "FOUND CODE" P1680..GAS PEDAL SHORTING OUT. PEDAL WAS REPLACED, RETESTED, AND APPROVED WITHOUT A RECURRENCE OF THE CODE. TWO MONTHS HAVE PASSED WITHOUT A RECURRENCE SO FAR. THE TOTAL COST WAS $191.85. THANK GOD IT DIDN'T COST A LIFE! THE OLD PART IS AVAILABLE; TELEFLEX 15187573 G03302 2 360-133143 PASSED MADE IN MEXICO 400421 COULD NOT ALLOW THIS TO HAPPEN AGAIN OR TO OTHERS; REPAIRED IMMEDIATELY DUE TO DANGEROUS TO FATAL CONSEQUENCES IF TURNING LEFT IN FRONT OF AN ONCOMING SEMI. THIS COMPLAINT IS TO INFORM OTHERS OF A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS SITUATION REGARDING THEIR GAS PEDAL. *TR

THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 GMC ENVOY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SPEEDOMETER SUDDENLY STOPPED WORKING. CONTACTED DEALER ABOUT ISSUE AND TOLD INSTRUMENT CLUSTER NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE DEALER ALSO STATED THAT THEY WOULD NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPAIRS. THROUGH ONLINE RESEARCH, THE CONTACT DISCOVERED THAT NUMEROUS PEOPLE WERE EXPERIENCING THE SAME FAILURE AND GM SEPT 2007 TSB 07187 INCLUDED ENVOY BUT LATEST REVISIONS B & C AT DEALERS DOES NOT INCLUDE ENVOY. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT YET BEEN REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE CONTACT BELIEVES THAT THE FAILURE WAS DUE TO A MANUFACTURER DEFECT AND A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED. THE VEHICLE HAS ONLY 20,000 MILES AND SEE THIS LACK OF GMC OWNING UP TO ITS ISSUE IS A HUGE SAFETY PROBLEM. *TR

ERRATIC SPEEDOMETER OPERATION. SHOWS VARIOUS SPEEDS WHEN STOPPED. INACCURATE WHEN UNDERWAY. WILL SHOW UP TO 110 MPH DRIVING IN THE CITY. DEALER SAYS INSTRUMENT PANEL NEEDS TO BE REPAIRED AT COST OF OVER $400. SAME PROBLEMS ON FULL SIZE GM TRUCKS. FULL SIZE TRUCKS ARE BEING COVERED UNDER SERVICE BULLETIN #07187A, B, & NOW C. SPEEDOMETER REPAIR SHOP SAYS STEPPER MOTORS ARE BAD. SAME PART NUMBER AND REPAIR AS ON FULL SIZE TRUCKS. GM HAS EXCLUDED ENVOY AND TRAILBLAZER FROM THIS REPAIR COVERAGE. *TR

REAR AIR BAGS LEAK DOWN AND THEN AT RANDOM PUMP BACK UP. TOOK IT MOORE BUICK FOR REPAIR AND, ONCE AGAIN, THEY REPLACED AN EXPENSIVE PART AND THIS A.M. THE AIR BAGS HAD LEAKED DOWN AGAIN. THIS IS THE LAST VEHICLE I WILL BUY FROM MOORE BUICK AND/OR GMC. *TR

SPEEDOMETER DEFECT - KNOWN ISSUE BUT NO RECALL; CAN'T TELL HOW FAST OR SLOW I'M GOING, AFTER READING FORUMS, NOT SURE IF OTHER DASHBOARD PROBLEMS - HARD TO DRIVE SAFELY WHEN TRYING NOT TO WATCH THE DASH TO SEE IF SOMETHING OTHER THAN SPEEDOMETER INDICATES A PROBLEM. DISTRACTION TO THE POINT OF BEING DANGEROUS - ESPECIALLY AROUND THIS AREA. WHAT ABOUT SCHOOL ZONES? *TR

THE SPEEDOMETER WILL NOT REGISTER THE CORRECT SPEED INTERMITTENTLY. *TR

I PURCHASED MY 2004 ENVOY XUV NEW. I LOVE IT, BUT THE SPEEDOMETER HAS BEEN GETTING PROGRESSIVELY WORSE. I GUESS I'VE BEEN ONE OF THE LUCKY ONES. THE BRAKES ARE FINE AND EVERYTHING ELSE SEEM TO BE OK SO FAR. I CURRENTLY HAVE 89,000 MILES ON IT AND THE FREQUENCY OF THE SPEEDO ACTING UP ARE GETTING MORE COMMON. I REMEMBER THE FIRST TIME WAS LATE IN '07. THE SPEEDO JUST KEPT CLIMBING HIGHER AND HIGHER TILL IT WAS PINNED. AND STAYED THERE FOR A DAY OR TWO. IT WOULD READ 120 MPH PARKED IN THE GARAGE. I BROUGHT IT IN AND THE DEALER JUST ROLLED THEIR EYES AND SAID THEY COULD ORDER ANOTHER DASH BOARD FOR AROUND $500.00, BUT I OPTED NOT TO FIX IT AT THAT TIME. THE DEALER TOLD ME IT WAS A COMMON THING WITH THE ENVOY, BUT GM HAS NO RECALLS ON IT. IT HAD SEEMED FINE FOR A WHILE. THEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN A FEW TIMES IN '08. NOW IT'S ONLY MARCH OF '09 AND IT HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST ONCE EVERY TWO WEEKS. IT IS CLEARLY OUT OF WARRANTY BUT BEING A SAFETY ITEM SUCH AS A INSTRUMENT CLUSTER ONE WOULD THINK IT WOULD BE A RECALL ITEM. THIS APPEARS TO BE A NATION WIDE ISSUE AND GM AND THE DOT / NHTSA DO NOT RECOGNIZE IT? I LIKE THE VEHICLE, I AM HAPPY WITH IT OTHERWISE. JUST DISAPPOINTED AND FRUSTRATED WITH THE NHTSA AND GM. *TR

THE SPEEDOMETER STOPPED WORKING PROPERLY. IT WOULD REGISTER AT ALL KINDS OF SPEED. THEN IT WILL STICK BELOW 120MPH. THIS IS AN EVERYDAY OCCURRENCE. IT IS NOW TO THE POINT THAT THE ODOMETER IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. I HAVE HAD AN ESTIMATE DRAWN UP TO REPAIR/REPLACE AND IT WAS OVER 600 DOLLARS. I FEEL THAT WITH ALL OF THE OTHER COMPLAINTS LISTED ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE, GM SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL AND COVER THE COST FOR REPAIR, SINCE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON A 5-6 HOUR TRIP, THE SPEEDOMETER BEGAN MALFUNCTIONING ABOUT 1/2 WAY THROUGH THE TRIP. WE HAD TO USE THE SPEEDOMETER ON THE TOMTOM TO DETERMINE OUR CORRECT SPEED SINCE THE SPEEDOMETER WAS READING 5-10 OVER THE SPEED LIMIT. AFTER THE VEHICLE SAT FOR THE NIGHT, IT STARTED WORKING AGAIN...BUT ONLY TO STOP AGAIN 1/2 WAY THROUGH OUR TRIP BACK HOME. I HAVE NOTICED THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO THE SPEEDOMETER ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION AND REFUSE TO PAY THE OUTRAGEOUS AMOUNT TO REPAIR IT. I THINK THIS IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT AND SHOULD BE TAKEN CARE OF BY THEM. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 GMC ENVOY XUV. THE CONTACT CANNOT DETERMINE HOW FAST SHE IS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. THE SPEEDOMETER DOES NOT WORK CORRECTLY WHEN THERE IS A HALF A TANK OR LESS OF FUEL IN THE VEHICLE. GMC STATED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL FOR HER VEHICLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000. UPDATED 3/19/09 *CN UPDATED 03/23/09.*JB

THE SPEEDOMETER NEEDLE FLUTTERED AND THEN STUCK BETWEEN 100-120 MPH. IT IS UNCLEAR IF THERE IS ANY CURRENT SERVICE BULLETIN (E.G., #07187A (INCLUDES ENVOY) AND #07187B (DOES NOT INCLUDE ENVOY), OR #040845010) WHICH COVERS THIS DEFECT WHICH, ACCORDING TO VARIOUS CHAT SITES, HAS OCCURRED IN OTHER VEHICLES. IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE. WE ARE AWAITING A REPLACEMENT PART WHICH WILL BE AT OUR EXPENSE. REPLACEMENT COSTS VARY BE GEOGRAPHIC LOCATION. *TR

SPEEDOMETER STARTED STICKING, WHEN TURNED OFF AND BACK ON WOULD CORRECT THIS FOR A SHORT TIME. AFTER A WHILE SPEEDOMETER SHOWED I WAS GOING 90 MPH. SINCE THIS, MY SPEEDOMETER COMPLETELY STOPPED. (ALTHOUGH,YESTERDAY WHEN I LOOKED AT MY SPEEDOMETER IT DID SHOW 50 MPH THEN WENT BACK TO ZERO) I WAS ALSO TOLD THIS WAS A FAULTY STEPPER MOTOR. I DON'T FEEL THAT I SHOULD PAY $250 TO HAVE A $25 MOTOR INSTALLED WHEN THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A MANUFACTURING DEFECT. *TR

THE DROP GATE ACTUATOR STOPPED WORKING. THE GATE WONT OPEN. *TR

THE GEARS IN THE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL GOT DAMAGED AT 41,000 MILES. HAD TO REPLACE THE GEARS. *TR

THE SPEEDOMETER NEEDLE BROKE AND GAVE WRONG READING. HAD TO REPLACE IP CLUSTER. *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 COUL

I HAVE SPEEDOMETER PROBLEMS WITH MY 2004 SUV ENVOY XUV AND I AM BELIEVE THIS TO BE MORE OF A RECALL PROBLEM THAN JUST BAD LUCK AND MY HEAR SHIFT IN THE TRUCK IS GOING OUT "THE ELECTRONIC ACUTATOR," ALL OF THIS IS JUST UNREAL WITH THESE CAR AND TRUCKS HAVING THESE TYPE MALFUNCTION AND THE MAKE DOES NOT WANT TO HONOR THE REPAIRS. I HAVE NEVER IN MY MANY OF CARS ALONG WITH FAMILY MEMBER HAD AUTO REPAIR SUCH AS THIS. I CAN'T WAIT TO GOT BACK TO A FOREIGN AND I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER GMC AGAIN. GMC SAID THY WOULD GET THE DEAL TO HELP WITH HALF THE REPAIR, BUT THE DEAL HERE CHANGED NAMES AND MANAGEMENT FROM MILLSAPS TO TEEAMS AUTO. THESE CARS COST WAY TOO MUCH FOR THINGS LIKE THIS TO GO WRONG. I WANT TO VOICE MY OPINION ABOUT TO AN ORGANIZATION THAT WILL AT LEAST READ ABOUT IT. THE CONSUMER HAS TO PAY WAY TO MUCH FOR SOMETHING THEY ALREADY PAID FOR. MY TRUCK IS ROLLING MILES THAT I AM NOT REALLY DRIVING AND THIS IS SAD. I MADE THE MISTAKE OF GETTING THIS TRUCK USED AND THAT WAS A TERRIBLE MISTAKE ESPECIALLY WHEN THE MAKER DOES NOT CAR ENOUGH ABOUT THE CONSUMER TO MAKE IT RIGHT. THIS IS PROBABLY SOME OF THE PROBLEMS WITH THE ECONOMY NOW AND THAT THE LITTLE MAN HAS TO PAY THE COST BECAUSE THE MONEY MAKERS WILL NOT HONOR RIGHT WITH THE CONSUMERS, YOU CAN'T CHEAT PEOPLE AND/OR BE DISHONEST AND THINK IT WILL NOT COME BACK TO YOU. I HAVE NOT HAD PERFORMANCE FAILURE, BUT I AM CONCERN ABOUT MY SAFETY WITH SUCH PROBLEMS AS GEAR SHIFT ELECTRONIC ACTUATOR FAILING. *TR

THE SPEEDOMETER ON MY ENVOY XUV JUMPED FROM 75MPH TO 120MOH AS I SLOWED DOWN TO EXIT THE INTERSTATE. IT CONTINUED TO INCREASE, ALTHOUGH IT WAS PAST THE POINT OF REGISTERING ANY SPEED. IT HAS LOWERED SOME, BUT IS STILL ACTING ERRATICALLY. THIS VEHICLE IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD, AND I'M LOOKING AT A $500+ REPAIR. *TR
