2006 GMC ENVOY Complaints

I HAVE HAD MY GMC ENVOY INTO THE DEALERSHIP ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS FOR A NOISE COMING FROM THE REAR. I'VE BEEN TOLD THAT IT IS JUST A FLAW IN THE DESIGN BUT IT IS A VERY ANNOYING FLAW. THE NOISE IS A CONSTANT SQUEAL THAT ONLY GOES AWAY IF I TAKE THE VEHICLE OUT OF OVERDRIVE. THE DEALERSHIP SAID FROM ME NOT TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE IN OVERDRIVE BECAUSE THERE WASN'T ANYTHING THEY COULD DO TO FIX IT. AS TIME GOES ON, THE NOISE SEEMS TO BE GETTING LOUDER. *TR

2006 GMC ENVOY DENALI PURCHASED. BEGINNING AT ABOUT 10,000 MILES THE TRANSMISSION WOULD SHIFT ABRUPTLY INTO 1ST GEAR AFTER THE CAR HAD STOPPED MOVING. THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN EVERY TIME BUT DOES HAPPEN OFTEN AND WHEN IT DOES IT FEELS AS IF THE CAR HAS BEEN HIT FROM BEHIND. DEALER HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM BUT STATES THAT OTHER OWNERS HAVE REPORTED THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

BACK WINDOW ON MY 2006 GMC ENVOY EXPLODED WHEN THE TAILGATE WAS CLOSED. GLASS WAS NOT PREVIOUSLY DAMAGED IN ANY WAY. HINGES HAD JUST THE DAY BEFORE BEGUN MAKING A NOISE WHEN TAILGATE WAS OPENED AND CLOSED. MY HUSBAND'S HAND WAS CUT. GLASS FLEW 20 FT. OUT OF GARAGE WHERE CAR WAS PARKED. NOISE OF EXPLOSION WAS LIKE A LIGHTENING STRIKE OR GUNSHOT. *TR

AFTER FILLING THE FUEL TANK IT REFUSED TO READ FULL - STAYED ON EMPTY AND NOW THE GAUGE DOES UP AND DOWN AT WILL. ALSO THE SMELL OF GAS IS COMING THROUGH THE AIR CONDITIONER. *TR

FUEL GAUGE BOUNCES AROUND EVEN WHEN FULL WITH GAS. WHEN FILLED,THE GAUGE NEEDLE GETS BURIED AT EMPTY WITH LIGHT AND SOUND DINGING. THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. *TR

FAILURE OF THE FUEL SENDING UNIT ON MY 2006 GMC ENVOY AND OTHERS GMC ENVOYS AND CHEVY TRAILBLAZERS. A FLOOD OF INFORMATION IS AVAILABLE REGARDING THIS PROBLEM ON THE INTERNET. MOST CAN NOT UNDERSTAND THE LACK OF A RECALL TO FIX THIS SITUATION. SITUATION: ERRATIC OR EMPTY GAS GAUGE READING EVEN WHEN THE TANK IS FULL. A FULL TANK READS EMPTY RIGHT OUT OF THE GAS STATION. THE GAUGE MOVES UP AND DOWN WITH NO RELIABILITY. THE READING IS FLUCTUATING THE ENTIRE TIME SPENT DRIVING WHEN NOT READING EMPTY. THE PROBLEM OCCURRED WITHIN A MONTH OF THE WARRANTY EXPIRING. *TR

PURCHASED VEHICLE IN FEB 2008, GAS GAUGE FLUCTUATIONS BEGAN IN JUNE 2008. NOW SHOWS EMPTY ALL THE TIME, LIGHT AND WARNING BELLS GO OFF WITH EACH START AND FILL UP. RAN OUT OF GAS ON MARCH 25TH, WAS UNABLE TO FILL TANK COMPLETELY AND STILL SHOWED EMPTY. *TR

THE FUEL GAUGE DOES NOT WORK IN MY 2006 GMC ENVOY. ONE DAY I FILLED THIS VEHICLE UP AND THE GAS GAUGE REMAINED ON EMPTY AND FOR A MONTH IT WOULD READ NORMAL SOMETIMES, BUT NOW IT STAYS ON EMPTY THIS HAS OCCURRED WITHIN THE LAST THREE MONTHS. I TOOK THIS CAR TO A GMC DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT THE PROBLEM WAS THE FUEL GAUGE SENSOR,I HAVE 52,000 MILES ON THIS VEHICLE AND IT'S NOT UNDER WARRANTY, SO THIS PROBLEM STILL REMAINS. *TR

2006 ENVOY ONLY HAS 50,000 MILES AND THE FLYWHEEL IS GOING BAD WHICH MAY LEAD TO FUTURE PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSMISSION THERE IS ALSO A FUEL GAUGE PROBLEM WHERE I FILL UP THE CAR COMPLETELY AND IT STILL READS EMPTY. TO REPLACE THIS WOULD BE $800 DOLLARS!!! I HAVE FOUND OTHER WEBSITES WHERE OTHER PEOPLE WHO OWN THIS CAR ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL!!!!!!! THIS IS RIDICULOUS. THANK YOU FOR LISTENING. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 GMC ENVOY XL. UPON REVIEW ON THE INTERNET, THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THEIR FUEL GAUGE INDICATORS. THIS APPEARS TO BE A CONSISTENT PROBLEM, AND IT COSTS APPROXIMATELY $500 TO REPAIR. MOST COMPLAINTS ARE HAPPENING AROUND 45-50 THOUSAND MILES... *TR
