2004 GMC ENVOY Complaints

2004 GMC ENVOY XL SPEEDOMETER AND TACHOMETER NO LONGER FUNCTION.... THIS HAPPEN ABOUT 1 YEAR AGO AND IT CONTINUES TO THIS DAY... I AM READING ONLINE THAT THERE ARE OTHER SIMILAR ISSUES WITH THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. IN MY OPINION THIS IS WITHOUT A DOUBT A SAFETY RELATED ISSUE.... I SHOULD BE TRAVELING 35 MILES AN HOUR AND THE CAR REGISTERS 75 MPH. ITS NEVER CORRECT AND THE TACH JUST STOPPED WORKING. *TR

WHILE DRIVING INTERSTATE 80 IN NEBRASKA DURING THE MONTH OF DECEMBER 2009, THE SPEEDOMETER ON MY 2004 GMC ENVOY GOT STUCK ON 70 MPH. I HAD NO IDEA HOW FAST I WAS GOING AND IT WAS VERY DANGEROUS DRIVING WHILE NOT KNOWING HOW FAST I WAS GOING IN CONSTRUCTION ZONES AND THE ROADS WERE VERY SNOW AND ICE PACKED. SINCE DECEMBER, I HAVE PURCHASED A GPS WITH A SPEEDOMETER. I DO NOT WANT TO PAY TO GET THIS FIXED BECAUSE I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND GM SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL. THERE ARE TIMES THE SPEEDOMETER WILL WORK, THEN FOR NO APPARENT REASON WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY IT WILL GET STUCK. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 GMC ENVOY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR HATCH OPENS BY ITSELF WITHOUT WARNING. ON JUNE 3, 2008 THE CONTACT HAD THE REAR END GATE CONTROLLER, THE LOWER END GATE HATCH ACCELERATOR AND THE LEFT UPPER HATCH ACCELERATOR REPAIRED, AND THE FAILURE HAD RETURNED. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE PARTS HAD BROKEN AGAIN. THE CONTACT FEELS THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE ITEMS FALL OUT OF THE VEHICLE ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN THE HATCH OPENS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE 50 AND THE FAILURE 72000.

I HEARD A CLICKING NOISE FROM UNDER THE HOOD AND AFTER PULLING OFF THE COVER PLATE FOR THE ENGINE EXHAUST MANIFOLD I SAW THE MANIFOLD WAS CRACKED. AT IDLE SPEED FUMES GET INSIDE VEHICLE. REPAIR HAS NOT BEEN MADE SO OLD PART IS AVAILABLE. UPON RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET THERE ARE NUMEROUS OTHER COMPLAINTS OF THIS PROBLEM. I SENT AN E-MAIL TO GM AND SOMEONE CALLED AND SAID THEY NEED MORE PEOPLE TO REPORT IT TO GET SOMETHING DONE. I BELIEVE IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE OF THE FUMES AND POSSIBLE FIRE HAZARD. *TR

SPEEDOMETER SAYS I AM GOING 70 - 110 WHEN I AM DRIVING 30 ISH AND SOMETIMES GOES TO ZERO. WHEN I AM STOPPED, IT WILL SHOW THAT I AM GOING SPEEDS (VARIOUS). MY LIGHTS ON DASHBOARD DIMS ONCE IN AWHILE. *TR

INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER ISSUES IN 2004 GMC ENVOY,. HEADLIGHTS AND INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTS FLICKER DIM TO BRIGHT. OCCURS WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD VERY SPORADIC. DIAGNOSTIC STATED FAULTY INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER. ISSUE IF NOT FIXED, THE VEHICLE COULD STALL WHEN DRIVING AND LOSE POWER. MINE HAS STARTED LOOSING POWER AND STALLING. FAULTY SPEEDOMETER INACCURATE, WILL GO PAST 120MPH OR STAY ON ZERO, WHY NO RECALL ON THESE ITEMS GM IS AWARE OF THIS BUT AS OF TODAY NO ACTION HAS BEEN TAKEN. *TR

2004 ENVOY GMC XL HAVING THE PO442 CODE COME UP WITH SIGNS OF GAS LEAKING, SMELLS LIKE GAS AND EVAP SYSTEM SEEMS TO NOT BE WORKING. THE GMC DIAGNOSTIC COMES UP WITH EVAP SMALL LEAK DETECTED. VERY SIMILAR TO THE PROBLEMS ON THE 2002-2003 ENVOY XL. *TR

DASH GAUGES/ FIRST THE OIL LEVEL GAUGE DIED, THEN THE SPEEDOMETER STARTED ACTING UP, IT WILL SAY YOUR GOING 200 MPH, WHEN YOUR STANDING STILL...THEN THE SPEAKERS AND THE RADIO STARTED ACTING UP, WORK, DON'T WORK...REALLY CONCERNED ABOUT SPEEDOMETER, AND IF OTHER GAUGES WILL FOLLOW SUIT. *TR
