Consumer Description
I HAVE HAD MY 05 GMC ENVOY FOR SEVERAL MONTHS NOW AND HAVE TAKEN IT TO BE REPAIRED AT LEAST ONCE A MONTH! MY ISSUE IS WITH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND THE HEADLIGHTS AND CONSOLE "FLASHING" AT NIGHT. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TWICE AND THE FIRST TIME THEY CHECKED THE BATTERY, SOME CABLES AND GAVE IT BACK TO ME SAYING THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING. THE SECOND TIME I TOOK IT BACK ABOUT A MONTH LATER BECAUSE THE LIGHT WERE STILL FLASHING. THE DEALERSHIP HAD IT FOR 2 DAYS AND TOLD ME IT WAS MY ALTERNATOR. I DID NOT BELIEVE THEM AND DID NOT GET MY ALTERNATOR CHANGED ($675.00) AND MY CAR HAS BEEN STARTING AND RUNNING FINE. MY HEADLIGHTS STILL FLICKER, BUT THERE IS NOTHING I CAN DO ABOUT IT. I HAVE READ SEVERAL OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS AND MOST OF THEM GO THROUGH A NEW BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR AND IT STILL DOES NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. THIS IS SOMETHING GMC NEEDS TO LOOK INTO AND FIX BECAUSE IT IS A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD. *TR
