REAR HATCH STRUTS ON 2003 GMC ENVOY FAILED WITHOUT WARNING. DOOR COULD HAVE FALLEN AND INJURED FAMILY MEMBERS. IT IS TOO HEAVY TO LIFT. DEALER SAID PART WAS ON 7 DAY BACKORDER. *JB

THIS WAS ORIGINALLY SUBMITTED ON 10/14/2003, BUT BECAUSE I DON'T SEE IT ON THE NHTSA WEB SITE, I AM RESUBMITTING: THE LIFTGATE WINDOW OF 2003 GMC ENVOY XL EXPLODED/SHATTERED WHEN I TRIED TO OPEN IT BEYOND THE FIRST FEW INCHES. A SHOWER OF GLASS RESULTED IN A SEVERE FACIAL LACERATION TO MY 4-YEAR OLD DAUGHTER. THERE IS NO WARNING WHATSOEVER ON THE WINDOW OR IN THE VEHICLE OPERATING GUIDE REGARDING SUCH A DANGER. THIS DEFECT IS A MAJOR DANGER THAT COULD HAVE RESULTED IN EVEN GREATER PHYSICAL INJURY AND HAS LEFT A SCAR ON MY DAUGHTER'S FACE. *LA

I WAS IN A CENTER FRONTAL IMPACT ACCIDENT AT 35-40 MPH WITH A VEHICLE THAT PULLED IN FRONT OF ME (T-BONE ACCIDENT) AND MY AIRBAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. *AK

I HAD LOST 3 CENTER PIECES THAT COVERS THE LUDE BOLTS. I SPOKE THE COMPANY ABOUT THE ABOVE AND THEY STATED THEY HADN'T HAD ANY ONE TO COMPLAIN. BUT AFTER GREAT EFFORT IT WAS RESOLVED WITH ME BEING REIMBURSED WITH THE 1 I HAD PURCHASED AND THEY REPLACED THE OTHER 2. I HAD SPOKEN WITH 2 OF MY CO-WORKERS AND THEY HAD A SIMILAR COMPLAINT, BUT DID NOT PURSUE IT. NOW MY CRUISE CONTROL HAS GONE OUT AND MAY VECHILE ONLY HAVE 16,000 MILES ON IT AND I HAVEN'T USE D IT. THE WAY I FOUND OUT IT WAS NOT WORKING WAS WE WERE TAKING A TRIP AND THE CRUISE WOULD NOT WORK. I NOW HAVE TO TAKE IT IN FOR REPAIR AND I AM DREADING IT WILL BE A ORDEAL. SINCE I HAVE TO TAKE IT IN TO THE CHEVROLET PLACE INSTEAD OF THE DEALERSHIP I PURCHASED IT FROM BECAUSE OF THE POOR SERVICE.*AK

VEHICLE WAS DESIGNED WITH THE COOLANT LINES NEXT TO THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER. THE FUEL LINE RUPTURED IN SEVERAL PLACES AND SPRAYED COOLANT ON THE UNDER CARRIAGE OF THE VEHICLE ,AND THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER. *AK
