THE SPEEDOMETER STOPPED WORKING AND READS 120 MILES AN HOUR NO MATTER HOW FAST I'M TRAVELING. I CURRENTLY USE MY GPS TO WATCH MY SPEED. THIS IS UNSAFE AND THIS IS A ON-GOING COMPLIANT FOR MANY CONSUMERS. GM SHOULD BE AWARE OF THIS DANGEROUS AND IRRESPONSIBLE ASSEMBLE OF THIS VEHICLE. *TR

FILLED UP GAS TANK TO FULL, WHEN PULLING OUT OF GAS STATION, FUEL LIGHT CAME ON AND GAS GAUGE SHOWED IT WAS EMPTY. AFTER DRIVING FOR A SHORT WHILE GAUGE STARTED TO GO TO FULL. THIS HAPPENS EVERYTIME I FILL UP FOR GAS. *TR

GMC ENVOY SHUT DOWN COMPLETELY, WITH OUT WARNING, ON THE EXPRESS WAY. AUTO REPAIR DIAGNOSED THE CAUSE AS A "FAULTY" IGNITION. IGNITION WAS REPLACED. ANOTHER COMPLAINT HAS BEEN SUBMITTED FOR THE SAME VEHICLE. TWO YEARS LATER, THE IGNITION SWITCH WAS REPLACED, DUE TO THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

GMC ENVOY SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING. ALL POWER LOST. VEHICLE CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP JUST A FEW FEET BEFORE AN INTERSECTION. DEALER REPLACED IGNITION SWITCH, DUE TO "MULTIPLE CODES STORED IN THE ECM." IRONICALLY, ALMOST 2 YEARS PRIOR, SAME ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLE HAPPENED ON THE EXPRESS WAY. WE WERE LUCKY TO BE ABLE TO GET TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD BEFORE THE VEHICLE CAME TO A STOP. IGNITION SWITCH WAS REPLACED DURING THAT INCIDENT AS WELL. TWO IGNITION SWITCHES HAVE BEEN REPLACED IN THE SAME VEHICLE OVER THE COURSE OF 2 YEARS. I'M SURPRISED THAT THIS VEHICLE ISN'T PART OF THE GM IGNITION RECALL! *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 GMC ENVOY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING WITH THE HEAD LIGHTS ACTIVATED, BOTH LIGHTS WOULD INTERMITTENTLY BECOME DIMMER AND THEN INCREASE BRIGHTNESS. THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT THE DEFECT WAS REPEATED EACH TIME THE HEAD LIGHTS WERE TURNED ON. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND NO SOLUTION WAS OFFERED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 11,000.

THE FIRST DAY WE HAD THE TRUCK THE SPEEDOMETER DISPLAYED THE WRONG SPEED AND HAS BEEN THAT WAY. IT WORKS OCCASIONALLY. THEN A WEEK LATER THE LOW BEAM HEAD LIGHTS WENT OUT WHILE DRIVING. THEY CAME BACK ON AFTER A FEW MINS. THIS HAPPENED AGAIN A FEW DAYS AGO. THE FUEL GAGE IS IN ACCURATE AS WELL. I TOOK IT TO A SHOP AND THEY SAID THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER NEEDS TO BE REPLACED BUT FOUND NO ISSUES WITH THE HEAD LIGHTS BUT THERE IS DEFINITELY AN ISSUE WITH THE HEADLIGHTS AND THAT IS VERY DANGEROUS. *TR
