2004 GMC ENVOY Complaints

WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET THE CAR STARTED LUGGING AND NOT DRIVING SMOOTHLY. WHEN I NEEDED TO BRAKE SHORTLY AFTER THIS HAPPENED THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR AND I HAD NO BRAKES. I PUMPED THE BRAKES AND WAS ABLE TO STOP WITHOUT HITTING ANY ONE. I CONTINUED ABOUT 5 MILES CONTINUALLY PUMPING THE BRAKES NOT KNOWING IF THEY WOULD WORK .DURING THIS TIME THE PEDAL WOULD SOMETIMES GO TO THE FLOOR AND OTHER TIMES ALMOST GO TO THE FLOOR. THEN AS SUDDENLY AS IT STARTED IT STOPPED. BRAKES WERE BACK TO NORMAL. THIS HAPPENED PREVIOUSLY AND THE GMC MECHANIC FOUND NOTHING WRONG. SO I'M PUT BACK ON THE STREET RISKING MY LIFE AND SOMEONE ELSE'S BECAUSE THE MECHANIC SAID "IT SOMETIMES HAPPENS". THAT'S NOT ACCEPTABLE!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 GMC ENVOY XL. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE TURN SIGNAL INDICATORS BECAME INOPERABLE WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 184,000.

VEHICLE MAKES LOUD TICKING NOISE WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A FULL STOP. VEHICLE ALSO SOUNDS LIKE IT HAS AN EXHAUST LEAK.

MY 2004 GMC ENVOY XL SLT IS LEAKING GAS AT THE GAS TANK AND THE FILLER HOSE GAS JUST RUNS DOWN THE TANK TO THE GROUND ITS A FIRE RISK

I WAS DOING A REAR BRAKE JOB AND SMELLED GASOLINE, SO I WENT UNDER THE VEHICLE AND OBSERVED THERE WAS A WET SPOT ON THE REAR OF THE FUEL TANK. UPON CLOSER EXAMINATION I FOUND THE INLET PART OF THE FUEL TANK WAS BROKEN AND ALLOWING FUEL TO EXIT THE TANK, CAN WE SAY FIRE RISK, SO I WENT ONLINE TO TRY TO PURCHASE A REPLACEMENT TANK AND I FOUND WHERE SEVERAL PEOPLE HAD HAD THIS SAMEPROBLEM, BUT NO RECALL IS IN PLACE ?????

HELLO, FIRST OFF, THIS IS NOT A VEHICLE ISSUE OR COMPLAINT. THIS IS AN AFTER MARKET COMPONENT ISSUE REGARDING BOSCH EVOLUTION WIPER BLADES. I PURCHASED BOSCH EVOLUTION ALL SEASON WIPERS FOR MY 2004 ENVOY FROM WOOT.COM AND INSTALLED THEM LAST SUMMER. THEY WORKED FINE UNTIL LAST MONTH WHEN WINTER WEATHER HIT HERE IN NEW YORK STATE. IN COLD WINTER CONDITIONS THREE THINGS HAVE OCCURRED: 1.THE WIPER LATCHES ARE LIFTING UP (RELEASING) ALLOWING THE WIPERS TO NO LONGER BE SECURED TO THE WIPER ARM. MY PASSENGER SIDE WIPER HAS ACTUALLY SEPARATED FROM THE WIPER ARM TWICE SO FAR, AND I HAVE HAD TO PULL OVER TO RETRIEVE THE WIPER FROM THE STREET WHILE AVOIDING TRAFFIC. 2.AND, IN COLD WINTER CONDITIONS THE WIPERS BLADES ARE TAKING A 'SET' THUS SCRAPING THE WINDOW LOUDLY IN ONE DIRECTION INSTEAD OF WIPING THE GLASS IN BOTH DIRECTIONS. 3.ALSO, THE COLD WEATHER IS MAKING THE WIPER BLADES FORM INTO A CURVED SHAPE AWAY FROM THE GLASS, INSTEAD OF BEING FLAT ON THE GLASS. THIS PREVENTS THE WIPER BLADE FROM CONTACTING MOST OF THE WINDSHIELD. I COULD NOT SEE WHERE I WAS GOING BECAUSE THE WIPERS ONLY CLEARED THE WINDOW AT THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES BECAUSE ONLY THE ENDS OF THE WIPER BLADE WERE MAKING CONTACT WITH THE WINDSHIELD. I BELIEVE THIS IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND MORE IMPORTANTLY A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. I CONTACTED BOSCH AUTOMOTIVE AND THEY REPLIED THEY ONLY HAVE A 30 DAY WARRANTY ON WIPERS AND I SHOULD CONTACT THE SELLER. BECAUSE OF BOSCH'S I DON'T CARE ATTITUDE I AM CONTACTING THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION (NHTSA) REGARDING THIS SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. SORRY TO BOTHER YOU WITH THIS ISSUE AND I LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR RESPONSE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
