Headlight's,taillight's,turn signals stop working whenever they want.It's pretty scary to lose your headlight's when your driving at night.There's nothing i can do about it,except to sit wherever it happend and wait for them to come back on.My wife was following me one day and told me my brakelight's and turn signal stopped working and started to work again,she said this happened a couple time's at the same red light.There a couple of thing's (electrical)inside the vehicle that don't work anymore but i really dont care about them.To get the odometer to work i have to knock pretty hard on the plastic cover that cover's the instrument cluster,sometimes it stay's on,most of the time it wont stay on.The DIC (driver control center) doesn't work anymore.I cant even get to it.The speakers on the left side of the vehicle dont work anymore.I thought i would tell you about the inside also because it could be part of the problem.All of this happened when i was driving home from my daughter's two night's ago.I bought this vehicle about three or four's year's ago,and i had no problem's with it untill the other night.The person i bought it from is a good friend of mine.He said he never had a problem with it,plus i have been in this vehicle countless times,that's why i bought it. Thank you.

I WAS DRIVING IN THE CITY AT NIGHT TIME AND MY LOW BEAM LIGHTS QUIT WORKING. I DID NOT NOTICE IT RIGHT AWAY BECAUSE OF THE STREET LIGHTS. THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT AND PUT MY HUSBAND, DAUGHTER AND MYSELF AT RISK.

REAR AIR COMPRESSOR BAGS ARE FAULTY....FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND THIS IS HAPPENING TO MANY GMC ENVOYS AND NEED TO BE RECALLED!!! *TR

SPARE TIRE RELEASE MECHANISM DYSFUNCTIONAL. I WAS UNABLE TO CHANGE TO CHANGE A FLAT WHILE ON THE SIDE OF A VERY BUSY HIGHWAY. HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO A AUTOMOTIVE TIRE AND REPAIR BUSINESS, AND THEY COULD NOT REMOVE THE SPARE EITHER. I SEARCHED ONLINE AND THERE ARE A NUMBER OF SIMILAR REPORTS/COMPLAINTS CONCERNING GMC TRUCKS AND SUVS, AT LEAST 2002-2012 MODELS. MINE IS A 2004 ENVOY. E.G. HTTP://WWW.CARPROBLEMZOO.COM/GMC/ENVOY/SPARE-TIRE-PROBLEMS.PHP THIS DESIGN FAILURE COULD LEAD TO SIGNIFICANT INJURY OR ADVERSE HEALTH IMPACTS (EXPOSURE, HYPOTHERMIA, ETC.) ESPECIALLY TO ELDERLY OR INABILITY TO CHANGE A FLAT WHILE IN REMOTE TERRAIN, OR AREAS WITHOUT CELL PHONE SERVICE. THERE IS NO SAFETY RELEASE BACKUP THAT WOULD ALSO BYPASSING THE DEFECTIVE TIRE RELEASE MECHANISM.

THE TRANSMISSION STARTED TO SLIP, NOTICED IT STARTING TO HAVE ISSUES GETTING UP TO PROPER SPEED WITHOUT SLIPPING AND TRYING TO STALL, AND WAS TOLD BY PREVIOUS OWNER WHOM I'M PURCHASING IT FROM THAT THERE IS A POSSIBLE ISSUE WITH THE TRANSFER CASE AS WELL, AS IT ENGAGES IT'S 4 WHEEL DRIVE WITHOUT ME TOUCHING IT, TRIED TO SERVICE THE TRANSMISSION AND PUT FRESH FLUID AND A NEW FILTER IN TO SEE IF IT WOULD HELP AND NOW IT CAN ONLY GO AS FAST AS 40 TO 55 BEFORE IT STARTS TO SLIP PRETTY BAD. I HAVE A BABY ON THE WAY DUE IN THE NEXT COUPLE WEEKS AND WITH IT SLIPPING AND DROPPING SPEED IT CAN CAUSE ME TO END UP GETTING HIT AND I DON'T WANT TO PUT MINE, MY CHILD, OR ANY OF MY OTHER PASSENGERS IN DANGER.

WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND THE REPAIR SAFETY AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AND IS STILL ON

WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT BOTH LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS GO OUT COMPLETELY WITHOUT WARNING. VEHICLE TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEED AND HAS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING IN CITY AS WELL. HIGHBEAM HEADLIGHTS WORK WHEN SWITCHED ON AFTER LOW BEAM STOP WORKING. CANNOT LEAGALLY DRIVE WITH HIGHBEAMS ON ALWAYS. MY ENVOY IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND IS DEALER SERVICED EVEN THOUGH IT HAS HIGH MILEAGE. THERE WAS A RECALL FOR 2006 AND UP FOR THIS TYPE ISSUE, WHY WAS THE 2004 MODEL YEAR NOT LOOKED AT? THERE ARE OTHERS THAT HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE WITH LOWBEAM HEADLIGHTS. FUSEBOX UNDERHOOD IS LABELED TO CONFUSE OWNER AND RELAYS NOT DESCRIBED WELL IN OWNERS MANUAL. THERE IS NO RELAY LISTED FOR LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS. HEADLIGHT DRIVER MODULE IS A KNOW FAILURE COMPONENT. GM ALSO CHANGED ONSTAR TO DIGITAL SYSTEM LEAVING GM CARS LIKE MINE WITH ANALOG ONSTAR UNSERVICABLE AND REQUIRES EXPENSIVE UPGRADE. HEADLIGHTS GOING DARK WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT IS A DANGER AND VEHICLE SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO FALL UNDER RECALL FOR 2006 MODELS AS WELL. SLIGHT ACCIDENT, RAN OFF ROAD INTO DITCH AND CAUSED LIGHT DAMAGE. VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO BE DRIVEN, BUT NEEDED SOME REPAIR.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE STREET ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK , I COULD SMELL GAS... GOT OUT AND SAW A VISIBLE LEAK COMING FROM THE GAS TANK.. I PROCEEDED TO LOOK THIS PROBLEM UP, AND FOUND OUT THIS IS A REOCCURRING PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE .

MY DASH PANEL GAUGES BEGAN FAILING ONE BY ONE. MY HEADLIGHTS WILL SOMETIMES NOT COME ON AFTER STARTING THE CAR WITH THE HEADLIGHT SWITCH ON AUTO. A FLICK OF THE HEADLIGHT SWITCH IN AND OFF, DOES NOT MAKE THE HEADLIGHTS COME ON. SOMETIMES THEY COME ON AFTER DRIVING AROUND, AND THEN WILL GO OFF WITHOUT TOUCHING THE SWITCH. NOW, MY SIDE BRAKELIGHTS WILL NOT OPERATE CORRECTLY WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL IS PRESSED. ONLY THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT ILLUMINATES.

THE SEAT BELT WAS ALWAYS ON SO I HAVE TO REPLACE THE BOTH IMPACTOR SENSOR.

BACK WINDOW SPONTANEOUSLY BUST. 2 TIMES IT AS HAPPEN LESS THEN 1YEAR APART ON MY THIRD WINDOW IT BLEW UP IN MY WIFE'S FACE THE SECOND TIME
