JUST BOUGHT MY USED ENVOY 7MONTHS AGO AND STARTED POURING OUT POWER STEERING FLUID. GOT AN ESTIMATE FOR 4 POWER STEERING LINES AND OIL COLLER FOR A TOTAL OF $1497 + TAX. I'VE NEVER HAD A VEHICLE THAT I HAD TO ADD POWER STEER FLUID TO. SEEMS LIKE A DANGEROUS SITUATION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 GMC ENVOY. WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE HEADLIGHTS FAILED TO WORK. AFTER A FEW MINUTES, THE HEADLIGHTS AUTOMATICALLY TURNED ON AND WORKED NORMALLY. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (WILLISTON MOTORS, 1801 2ND AVE W, WILLISTON, ND 58801) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUSE BOX NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AT 888-988-7267 AND STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 8-3395918942. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 137,000.

THE LIGHT RELAY SWITCH IS BAD. AT NIGHT THE LIGHTS GO OUT AND WILL ONLY WORK IF I TURN ON THE BRIGHT LIGHTS AFTER A WHILE THEY COME BACK ON. I HAVE RECEIVED A SPECIAL RECALL NOTICE FROM GM BUT THEY SAID THAT MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT INCLUDED EVEN THOUGH THE YEAR MAKE AND MODEL IS THEY WILL ONLY FIX IF I PAY FOR IT NOT SURE WHY ALL VIN NUMBERS ARE NOT INCLUDED IN RECALL IF I'M HAVING THIS PROBLEM THE ANOTHER VIN NUMBER IS AND THEY PAY FOR FIXING IT AT 100% REGARDLESS OF THE MILEAGE. I HAD CALLED AND ASKED ABOUT THE PROBLEM WHEN IT FIRST STARTED GOING OUT THEY SAID IT WAS COST OVER $200.00 FOR THE PART. AT THAT TIME I WASN'T DRIVING AT NIGHT VERY LITTLE. BUT NOW I AM AND I NEED IT FIXED BUT THEY WILL NOT FIX IT UNDER THE SPECIAL RECALL UNLESS I PAY FOR IT. SO I'M HAVING TO DRIVE WITH MY BRIGHTS ON WHEN IT GOES OUT AND I DO NOT KNOW WHEN IT WILL GO OUT.

HEADLIGHTS CONTINUE TO GO OUT WHILE DRIVING CITY STREETS AND HIGHWAY. WINDOWS HESITATE TO GO UP AND MAKE A GRINDING NOISE. AT TIMES SMELLS LIKE SMOKE AND THEN DISSIPATES.
