2006 GMC Envoy Denali

GM IGNITION SWITCH PROBLEM WITH SUVS!!!!!!! WAS DRIVING ABOUT 45 MPH WITH OUR GRANDKIDS AND ALL POWER WAS LOST. NO POWER STEERING, NO BRAKES. RADIO AND ELECTRIC WINDOWS STILL WORKED AFTER STOPPING (LUCKILY SAFELY). SERVICE REPAIR REPORTED THAT IGNITION SWITCH CIRCUIT THAT CONTROLS THE ENGINE SHORTED OUT TURNING OFF ENGINE AT 45 MPH. THIS IS THE 5TH IGNITION SWITCH ON THIS VEHICLE. GM HAS A LARGER IGNITION SWITCH PROBLEM THAN THEY ARE ACKNOWLEDGING. LUCKILY WE JUST GOT OFF THE HIGHWAY GOING 70 MPH OR WE WOULD HAVE CRASHED. PLEASE RESEARCH THIS CLASS OF VEHICLE (SUVS/TRUCKS) AS I BELIEVE GM HAS A SIMILAR PROBLEM AS THE COBALTS!!!!!!! *TR

PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IN OCTOBER OF 2013 AND NOW THE DRIVERS DOOR ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS WORKS INTERMITTENTLY. I CONTACTED GMC BECAUSE THIS WAS A RECALL IN JUNE OF 2013. GMC TOLD ME THE WORK WAS ALREADY DONE SO TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM FIXED I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR IT OUT OF POCKET. THE PROBLEM I HAVE IS THEY DIDN'T FIX THE PROBLEM THEY ONLY MASKED IT WITH A CHEAP PIECE OF PLASTIC. IF A VEHICLE HAS A RECALL AND IT IS NOT FIXED CORRECTLY DOES THE COMPANY LEGALLY HAVE TO PLAY TO FIX THE PART AGAIN BECAUSE ONE OF THEIR DEALERSHIPS WAS NEGLIGENT IN FIXING THE RECALL CORRECTLY? *JS

GM HAS A RECALL OUT FOR ENVOY DENALI DRIVER DOOR PANELS SHORTING OUT CAUSING SMOKE AND POSSIBLE FIRE. THIS IS A FACT. MY DOOR DID START ON FIRE AND THANK GOD I WAS STILL IN THE STORE WHEN IT HAPPENED. BROUGHT THE TRUCK TO THE DEALER, DEALER SAYS "YES" THIS IS A RECALL ISSUE, GM HAS THE DEALER HOLD MY TRUCK FOR THREE WEEKS WHILE THEY DECIDE IF THEY ARE GOING TO PAY FOR THE REPAIRS TO THE RECALL THAT DID START ON FIRE. AFTER THREE WEEKS THE THIRD PARTY REPRESENTING GM CALLS AND SAYS "NO" GM IS REFUSING TO PAY FOR THE FIRE DAMAGE. ???? HOW DO YOU HAVE A RECALL BUT NOT COVER THE DAMAGE IF IT ENDS UP HAPPENING. SEPTEMBER 2013 ISSUE OF CONSUMER REPORTS PAGE 16 HAS THE RECALL ARTICLE. *TR

2006 ENVOY DENALI. CONSUMER WRITES STATES GAS NEEDLE STOPPED FUNCTIONING *TGW THE CONSUMER STATED THE GAS NEEDLE BEGAN TO FLUCTUATE IN THE BEGINNING AND SINCE THAT TIME, THE NEEDLE HAS BEEN STUCK ON EMPTY, AND THE ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED AS A RESULT. IN MARCH OF 2009, WHEN THE CONSUMER STARED THE VEHICLE, IT SOUNDED AS IF THERE WAS SOMETHING METAL TUMBLING AROUND UNDER THE HOOD. UPON INSPECTION OF THE VEHICLE, IT WAS DETERMINED THE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. ON JUNE 10, 2010, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START AND HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALER. AN INSPECTION REVEALED A STARTER WAS NEEDED. ALSO, AN ALIGNMENT WAS DONE AND THE REAR BRAKE LIGHT WAS REPLACED. ON JUNE 12, 2010, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT COME OUT OF PARK. AFTER 25 MINUTES AND OVER 50 ATTEMPTS, IT FINALLY CAME OUT OF PARK. THE CONSUMER DROVE TO THE DEALER, BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO FIND A PROBLEM. SEPTEMBER 2010, THE CONSUMER NOTICED THE REAR OF THE TRUCK WAS SITTING VERY LOW. THE REAR END AIR SUSPENSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE AIR CONDITION RANDOMLY WORKED. THERE WERE TIMES WHERE THE AIR WOULD JUST START BLOWING AND NO BUTTONS WERE PUSHED. ALSO, THE DEFROSTER STOPPED WORKING. THE CONSUMER CONTINUED TO EXPERIENCE PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICLE NOT COMING OUT OF PARK. *JB

FUEL GAUGE IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY ON MY VEHICLE. IT STAYS ON "E" WHEN THERE IS PLENTY OF GASOLINE IN THE CAR. THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS THAT I HAVE SEEN ON WEBSITES. OCCASIONALLY THE GAUGE WILL MOVE UP BUT THEN GO BACK TO "E". I WENT TO DEALER AND THEY SAID IT IS A BAD FUEL SENOR GAUGE WHICH IS IN THE GASOLINE TANK. SEEMS LIKE THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE AND COULD CAUSE OTHER PROBLEMS. THE FUEL GAUGE HAS BEEN LIKE THAT FOR OVER 6 MONTHS, AS THE COST WAS ASTRONOMICAL AND I BELIEVE THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL. ADDITIONALLY, RECENTLY MY OIL PRESSURE GAUGE HAS SHOWN THE MAX AMOUNT AND THEN LAST NIGHT IT WENT DOWN TO THE LOWEST AMOUNT ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. IT GOES BACK AND FORTH FROM HIGH TO LOW AND THE OIL PRESSURE LOW LIGHT COMES ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND THEN GOES OFF. IT SAYS TO STOP ENGINE. THERE DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE ANYTHING PHYSICALLY WRONG WITH MY ENGINE AND I WILL BE TAKING IT TO THE DEALER TOMORROW TO CONFIRM THAT. I BELIEVE BOTH OF THESE ISSUES ARE CAUSED BY A FAULTY INSTRUMENT PANEL OR ELECTRICAL SYSTEM INCLUDED IN GM'S MODELS. I HAVE A FAMILY MEMBER WITH AN OLDER GMC SUV WITH SIMILAR ISSUES AND THEY ALSO HAD ISSUES WITH A GMC TRUCK THEY USED TO HAVE BUT GOT RID OF IT, DUE TO THE MALFUNCTIONS. SEEMS LIKE A VERY COMMON ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE RESOLVED BY GE. *TR
