MY 2006 ENVOY DENALI'S LOW BEAM LIGHTS ARE CUTTING OUT ON ME AT NIGHT. I'VE READ SEVERAL CASES ON THE INTERNET THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS. I'M CONCERNED THAT THIS SITUATION MAY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AT NIGHT UNEXPECTANY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 GMC ENVOY. WHEN THE CONTACT TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE AND REMOVED THE KEY FROM THE IGNITION SWITCH, THE PASSENGER SIDE REARVIEW MIRROR WOULD GO UP AND DOWN, THE FRONT DRIVER'S SEAT MOVED BACK INDEPENDENTLY, AND ALL THE INSTRUMENT PANEL INDICATORS REMAINED ILLUMINATED. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT HAD TO USE THE DIMMER SWITCH TO TURN DOWN THE INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTING. THE CONTACT CALLED BECKER BUICK GMC AT (509) 455-3550 (LOCATED AT 636 E SPRAGUE AVE, SPOKANE, WA 99202) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 104,000.

THE CAR WAS ON A RECALL BACK IN 2016. LETTER TOLD ME TO WAIT BECAUSE THE PART WAS BEING MADE AND WHEN IT BECAME AVAILABLE I WOULD BE NOTIFIED TO TAKE IT TO A GMC DEALER TO HAVE IT INSTALLED FREE OF CHARGE. THE HEADLIGHTS WOULD AND DASH LIGHTS WOULD DIM, GET BRIGHT OR GO OFF COMPLETELY JUST PRIOR TO THE PART BECOMING AVAILABLE. I TOOK IT IN ON JAN 12, 2017 TO HAVE THE RECALLED PART REPLACED. ON DEC 16, 2017 I HAD IT BACK TO THE DEALER FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. THEY SAID THEY WOULD HAVE TO DO A DIAGNOSTIC ($90.00). I CALLED GMC IN JAN 2018 AND TALKED WITH A SERVICE REPRESENATIVE AND HE REFUSED TO HELP ME IN ANY WAY. TOLD ME MY CAR IS 12 YEARS OLD (71,807 MILES ON IT CURRENTLY) AND I WAS ON MY OWN. EVEN ME EXPLAINING TO HIM THAT THE HEADLIGHTS ARE DOING THE SAME PROBLEM BEFORE THE HDM MODULE WAS REPLACED ON THE RECALL. THAT WENT IN ONE EAR AND OUT THE OTHER. HE BASICALLY TOLD ME TO HAVE A GOOD REST OF THE DAY. I CONTINUE TO HAVE THE PROBLEM AND DO NOT DRIVE THE CAR AT NIGHT, SO I AM STRANDED IN DOING EVENING GATHERINGS OR FESTIVITIES WITH FAMILY OR FRIENDS. IT WOULDN'T BE UNUSUAL FOR THE PART THEY REPLACED TO BECOME FAULTY SINCE THEY JUST HAD IT MADE FOR THE RECALL. THOUGH HE REALLY DIDN'T SEEM TO CARE ABOUT MY ISSUE AT ALL. THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND HEADLIGHTS ARE ON WHEN THE PROBLEM HAPPENS.

I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE WITH NEW TIRES ON IT. EXCESSIVE TIRE WEAR WAS STARTING ON THE DRIVERS SIDE TIRE BEFORE THE YEAR MARK OF ME PURCHASING IT. THERE WAS NO RECALLS OPEN ON THAT TIME THAT WE COULD FIND. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE FOG LIGHTS ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. IT HAD ELECTRICAL SHORT THAT NO ONE SEEMED TO FIND AND THERE WAS NO WAY TO LOCATE WITHOUT EXPENSIVE DIAGNOSTIC TIME. WHEN I WENT TO THE DEALER ABOUT RECALLS THEY INFORMED ME THE ONLY OPEN WAS A WINDOW SWITCH. AFTER A FRONT END ACCIDENT AT 30 MPH THE TIRE BLEW OUT ON THE DRIVERS SIDE ON IMPACT. I WAS INFORMED IN MY ESTIMATE THAT THERE WAS A OPEN RECALL WHICH COULD LEAD TO INCORRECT RIM SELECTION / TIRES FOR THE CAR CAUSING AIR LEAKAGE AND POSSIBLE ACCIDENT. IF I HAD KNOWN THIS BEFORE HAND MAYBE THIS COULD HAVE BEEN PREVENTED!

INVESTIGATION # DP10001: THE PETITIONER ALLEGES THAT THE FUEL TANK LEVEL SENSOR IS DEFECTIVE AND COULD RESULT IN A SUBJECT VEHICLE RUNNING OUT OF FUEL, STALL, AND BEING REAR ENDED BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. ODI WILL EVALUATE THE PETITION FOR A GRANT OR DENY DECISION. GM WILL FIX TILL 2016 MY 2006 ENVOY HAS ONLY 75,000 MILES ON IT
