2004 GMC Envoy Xuv

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 GMC ENCLAVE XUV. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 55 MPH, THE LOW BEAM LIGHTS FAILED TO ILLUMINATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, WHERE THE FAILURE WAS NOT DUPLICATED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE RECURRED FOUR TIMES WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS ABOUT 186,000.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD FROM WORK ALL OF A SUDDEN MY RADIO STARTS GOING UP /DOWN BY ITSELF,THEN THE NEXT DAY MY WINDOWS MADE A CLICKING NOISE NOW THEY WANT LET UP/DOWN .ALSO THE BACK TAILGATE WAS WORKING UNTIL THIS HAPPEN MY WINDOW IN BACK WANT LET UP/DOWN NOR WILL THE SUNROOF CONTROLS WANT WORK.ALL THIS HAPPEN AT ONCE !!!!!! THE FUSES WAS CHECK NOTHING FOUND. *TR

WENT TO REPLACE HEAD LIGHT BULB TO FIND OUT THAT I HAD TO REPLACE THE WIRING DO TO IT WAS MELTED. THE FILLER NECK ON THE FUEL TANK IS CRACKED, CAUSING AN EVAP LEAK IN WITCH I FOUND OUT THROUGH A GARAGE AND 5 DIFF. SALVAGE YARDS. AND LAST, 6 DIFF. TIMES WILL DRIVING I LOST POWER WILL DRIVING. I HAD TO TURN THE IGNITION OFF, WAIT ABOUT 3 SEC. BEFORE IT WOULD START AND GO. THE FIRST TIME WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION AND THE REST HAPPENED WHILE ON A REGULAR ROAD. I EXPLAINED TO MY WIFE WHAT TO DO IF THIS HAPPENS TO HER AND IT DID ONCE, THE OTHERS WHILE I WAS DRIVING. *TR

THIS VEHICLE SEEMS TO HAVE AN ELECTRICAL DRAIN OR ELECTRICAL GHOST OF SOME SORTS. THE BATTERY HAS BEEN REPLACED BY THE DEALER 4 TIME WITH THE PREVIOUS OWNER. THAT WAS THE DEALERS CURE. THEN WHEN I PURCHASED IT I REPLACED THE BATTERY.THEN IT WAS REPLACED FOR THE 6TH TIME 18 MONTHS LATER. THE REAR WINDOW ON THE TAIL GATE KEPT GOING DOWN ON IT'S OWN UNTIL THE MOTOR FLEW APART. THE WINDOW BEHIND THE REAR SEAT WENT DOWN ON IT'S OWN AND DOES NOT WORK ANYMORE. THE RETRACTABLE BACK ROOF WILL NOT ENGAGE DUE TO THE REAR WINDOW. DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE AC WILL COME ON BY ITSELF ALSO THE RADIO, THE SEAT HEATERS. NOW WHILE I'M DRIVING AT NIGHT THE HEADLIGHTS WILL GO OUT ON THEIR OWN, LUCKILY THE BRIGHT LIGHTS STILL WORK, BUT THAT'S NOT HELPING THE POOR SOUL IN FRONT OF ME. GM SAYS THAT THERE IS NO RECALL ON ANY OF THIS BUT I'M ALMOST TERRIFIED TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE OR LET ANYONE ELSE DRIVE IT AT NIGHT OR ANYTIME FOR THAT MATTER. NOT TO MENTION ANY KIND OF ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS THAT I MAY OF OVERLOOKED. *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
