2004 GMC ENVOY XUV Complaints

SPEEDOMETER GAGE IN INSTRUMENT CLUSTER STOPS/STICKS RANDOMLY. I NEED TO START/STOP THE IGNITION TO DECREASE THE MPH READING IN 5MPH DECREMENTS. FAULTY STEPPER MOTOR. *TR

THE "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" WARNING LIGHT HAS ILLUMINATED APPROXIMATELY FIVE OR SIX TIMES (ABOUT ONE-TWO MONTHS BETWEEN OCCURRENCES) SINCE JANUARY 2008. EVERY TIME I READ THE CODES, IT CAME UP AS P0442. *TR

I HAVE SPEEDOMETER PROBLEMS WITH MY 2004 SUV ENVOY XUV AND I AM BELIEVE THIS TO BE MORE OF A RECALL PROBLEM THAN JUST BAD LUCK AND MY HEAR SHIFT IN THE TRUCK IS GOING OUT "THE ELECTRONIC ACUTATOR," ALL OF THIS IS JUST UNREAL WITH THESE CAR AND TRUCKS HAVING THESE TYPE MALFUNCTION AND THE MAKE DOES NOT WANT TO HONOR THE REPAIRS. I HAVE NEVER IN MY MANY OF CARS ALONG WITH FAMILY MEMBER HAD AUTO REPAIR SUCH AS THIS. I CAN'T WAIT TO GOT BACK TO A FOREIGN AND I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER GMC AGAIN. GMC SAID THY WOULD GET THE DEAL TO HELP WITH HALF THE REPAIR, BUT THE DEAL HERE CHANGED NAMES AND MANAGEMENT FROM MILLSAPS TO TEEAMS AUTO. THESE CARS COST WAY TOO MUCH FOR THINGS LIKE THIS TO GO WRONG. I WANT TO VOICE MY OPINION ABOUT TO AN ORGANIZATION THAT WILL AT LEAST READ ABOUT IT. THE CONSUMER HAS TO PAY WAY TO MUCH FOR SOMETHING THEY ALREADY PAID FOR. MY TRUCK IS ROLLING MILES THAT I AM NOT REALLY DRIVING AND THIS IS SAD. I MADE THE MISTAKE OF GETTING THIS TRUCK USED AND THAT WAS A TERRIBLE MISTAKE ESPECIALLY WHEN THE MAKER DOES NOT CAR ENOUGH ABOUT THE CONSUMER TO MAKE IT RIGHT. THIS IS PROBABLY SOME OF THE PROBLEMS WITH THE ECONOMY NOW AND THAT THE LITTLE MAN HAS TO PAY THE COST BECAUSE THE MONEY MAKERS WILL NOT HONOR RIGHT WITH THE CONSUMERS, YOU CAN'T CHEAT PEOPLE AND/OR BE DISHONEST AND THINK IT WILL NOT COME BACK TO YOU. I HAVE NOT HAD PERFORMANCE FAILURE, BUT I AM CONCERN ABOUT MY SAFETY WITH SUCH PROBLEMS AS GEAR SHIFT ELECTRONIC ACTUATOR FAILING. *TR

THE SPEEDOMETER ON MY ENVOY XUV JUMPED FROM 75MPH TO 120MOH AS I SLOWED DOWN TO EXIT THE INTERSTATE. IT CONTINUED TO INCREASE, ALTHOUGH IT WAS PAST THE POINT OF REGISTERING ANY SPEED. IT HAS LOWERED SOME, BUT IS STILL ACTING ERRATICALLY. THIS VEHICLE IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD, AND I'M LOOKING AT A $500+ REPAIR. *TR

ABOUT A YEAR AGO, MY BACK WINDOW WOULD SOMETIMES JUST GO DOWN. AFTER ABOUT A MONTH THE WINDOW MOTOR STARTED RUNNING AND RUNNING TRYING TO PUT THE WINDOW UP, ALTHOUGH IT WOULDN'T GO UP. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND 700 MILES OVER THE WARRANTY...WOULDN'T COVER IT, SO $400 TO REPAIR THE REGULATOR. NOW, THE MID WINDOW IS DOWN AND WON'T WORK. THE QUOTE FOR THIS IS $500. AFTER READING OTHER COMPLAINTS ON THIS SAME ISSUE - GM SHOULD SUPPLY THE REGULATOR AT NO COST. SOME PEOPLES WINDOWS HAVE ACTUALLY EXPLODED....NOW THAT SOUNDS DANGEROUS. *TR

SPEEDOMETER DOES NOT WORK AND DEALER WON'T COVER UNDER WARRANTY. SEEMS TO BE A BIG PROBLEM WITH GMC VEHICLES. *TR

FAULTY INSTRUMENT CLUSTER PER GM, SPEEDOMETER AND FUEL GAUGE ACT UP ON THEIR OWN. CANNOT RELY ON GAUGES WHILE DRIVING... *TR

THE SPEEDOMETER IN MY 2004 GMC ENVOY XUV AT UNPREDICTABLE TIMES WILL DISPLAY SPEEDS LESS THAN MY ACTUAL SPEED. THIS CREATES AN UNSAFE SITUATION WHERE I CANNOT ENSURE THAT I AM DRIVING WITHIN POSTED SPEED LIMITS. *TR

I PURCHASED A 2004 GMC ENVOY XUV PREOWNED IN 2005 STILL UNDER WARRANTY. IT BEGAN DIMMING THE LIGHTS IN THE DASH BOARD AND AT THE RADIO AREA, I TOOK IT IN TO GMC FOR SERVICE AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY DIDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH MY VEHICLE. ON ANOTHER OCCASION MY CAR WOULD GET LOUDER UNDERNEATH THE HOOD IF I SAT IDLING FOR A FEW MINUTES IN A DRIVE THROUGH FOR EXAMPLE, I TOOK IT IN ONCE AGAIN AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS NORMAL NOTHING WAS FOUND TO BE WRONG. NOW MY ODOMETER WORKS OFF AND ON AS DOES MY OIL GAUGE. NOW THAT MY WARRANTY IS OUT I WOULD HAVE TO FOOT THE BILL TO A FEW PROBLEMS THAT I HAVE POINTED OUT TO THE GMC DEALER SHIP ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION. I HAVE EVEN GONE AS FAR AS TO ASK IF THERE WERE ANY RECALLS AND WAS TOLD NO THERE WERE NOT. AT ONE POINT MY MIDDLE WINDOW FELL DOWN WHILE I WAS DRIVING I TOOK IT TO GMC TO FIND OUT THE PROBLEM AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE REGULATOR, INSURANCE DID NOT COVER THIS AND THE WARRANTY HAD RUN OUT. APPROXIMATELY 2-3 WEEKS LATER MY BACK WINDOW WOULD NOT GO UP OR DOWN THEREFORE THE TAILGATE WOULD NOT OPEN, BACK TO GMC I WENT AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE REGULATOR ONCE AGAIN, AT THIS POINT I ASKED AGAIN ABOUT RECALLS AND WHY BOTH REGULATORS WOULD GO BAD WITHIN WEEKS OF ONE ANOTHER, I WAS TOLD IT WAS A COINCIDENCE. JUST AS RECENT AS JULY 24 MY POWER LOCKS BEGAN LOCKING AND UNLOCKING ON THERE OWN EVEN WHILE I'M DRIVING DOWN THE STREET. I HAD THE BATTERY CHECKED AND IT ALL CHECKED OUT FINE. AT THIS POINT I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND GMC TO ANYONE OR BUY ANOTHER! HELP *TR

ERRATIC SPEEDOMETER ON 2004 GMC ENVOY XUV SHOWS VARIOUS SPEEDS FROM ZERO TO 120+ MPH WHILE DRIVING AT NORMAL ROAD SPEEDS. NEED TO USE TACHOMETER TO DETERMINE APPROXIMATE SPEED OF VEHICLE (2000 RPM = 65 MPH FOR THIS VEHICLE). WHEN IGNITION IS TURNED OFF THE SPEEDOMETER NEEDLE DOES NOT ALWAYS RETURN TO ZERO, THE SPEEDOMETER NEEDLE ALSO SHUTTERS A LITTLE INTERMITTENTLY WHEN REDUCING SPEED. *TR
