2005 GMC ENVOY Complaints

THE REAR WINDOW TO OUR 2005 GMC ENVOY XL SHATTERED WHEN WE ATTEMPTED TO CLOSE THE REAR HATCH. THE WINDOW WAS FROZEN FROM THE COLD WEATHER AND WHEN IT FLEXED, IT SHATTERED EVERYWHERE.

LIGHTS GO OFF AND WON'T COME BACK ON FOR 2 HOURS. YOU CAN SMELL SOMETHING BURNING BUT CANNOT FIND WHERE IT IS COMING FROM. I HAVE REPLACED ALL BULBS 3 TIMES. AND NOTHING CHANGES.

I HAD TROUBLE WITH THE GAUGE THAT SHOWS OVERHEATING.I TOOK THE CAR IN TO PUT IN A THERMOSTAT THINKING IT WAS THE PROBLEM,BUT WHEN I TOOK IT IN THEY SAID THAT MY CLUSTER WAS BAD AND THE GAUGES WERE MESSED UP.I PAID $392.00 FOR THE CLUSTER AND $100.00 FOR LABOR.I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE USED WITH 119,000 MILES ON IT ON 6/20/2011 AND ON 2/23/2013 I HAD THE CLUSTER REPLACED WITH MILEAGE OF 132,356. I PUT ON NEW BRAKES AT THIS TIME SINCE THE HAD A HABIT OF GRABBING AND MAKING ME SLIDE AND JERK TO A STOP.THE ONLY PROBLEM I HAVE NOW IS THE THE DOOR LOCKS MESS UP ONCE IN AWHILE BUT OTHER THAN THAT I TAKE MY ENVOY IN EVERY 4000 MILES FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND A CHECK UP IT IS NOW 12/15/2015 AND I ONLY HAVE 142,000 MILES ON IT AND IT IS STILL RUNNING OK.I KEEP CHECKING ONCE A MONTH FOR RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE SOMETIMES A DOME LIGHT WILL COME ON .BUT NOT OFTEN.MY ENVOY HAS NOT RUST AND THE INTERIOR IS IN AS GOOD AS IT WAS WHEN I PURCHASED IT FROM THE PREVIOUS OWNER WHICH IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION

I HAVE NOW EXPERIENCED MY 2005 GMC ENVOY STALLING WHILE DRIVING SLOWLY. ALL OF A SUDDEN, IT WILL JUST STOP GOING AND THE LIGHTS ON THE DASH FLASH ON. LUCKILY, WHEN I TURN THE KEY, IT STARTS RIGHT BACK UP. GOING TO CALL MECHANIC AND SEE IF HE CAN FIGURE IT OUT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 GMC ENVOY XL 370. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND THE ENGINE STALLED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 GMC ENVOY. WHILE DRIVING, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE HEADLIGHT FLICKERED AND FAILED.

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 133,000.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AFTER DARK AND MY LOW BEAMS COMPLETELY WENT OUT. I COULD ONLY GET MY HIGH BEAMS TO WORK. CURRENTLY ONLY ONE LOW BEAM IS WORKING AND THE OTHER WILL NOT WORK EVEN AFTER CHANGING THE BULB OR THE FUSE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN ESPECIALLY HAVING A YOUNG CHILD. IT WAS VERY SCARY GOING DOWN THE ROAD AT NIGHT AND HAVE YOUR LIGHTS COMPLETELY JUST GO OUT. I HAVE NOTICED THAT THERE ARE ISSUES WITH 06-07 ENVOYS BUT I WANTED GM TO BE MADE AWARE THAT 2005 MODELS HAVE BEEN AFFECTED AS WELL.
