NHTSA Complaint #10409149 — 2003 GMC ENVOY

I OWN A 2003 GMC ENVOY. TWO YEARS AGO THE SPEEDOMETER STARTED STICKING. IT NOW DOES NOT KEEP THE SPEED AT ALL. MY RPM (WHEN IN PARK) WILL REV UP TO 2 OR 3RPM, MY GAS GAUGE HAS NOW STARTED TO SOMETIMES NOT SHOW I HAVE ANY GAS, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON ALMOST ALL THE TIME, MY AIR CONDITIONER WILL BLOW OUT THE BACK VENT AND BARELY COME OUT OF THE FRONT VENT WHEN I HAVE IT UP FULL BLAST. AND TO TOP IT OFF MY BACK BRAKE LIGHTS CONSTANTLY BURN OUT.. I HAVE READ NUMEROUS FORUMS WHERE MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING SOME OF THESE SAME ISSUES BUT NO RECALL. I DON'T UNDERSTAND THAT AT ALL. I DEFINITELY THINK THESE BAD INSTRUMENT PANELS CALL FOR A RECALL!! THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. I EVENTUALLY HAD TO CUT A HOLE IN THE PLASTIC OVER THE SPEEDOMETER AND BEFORE IT QUIT COMPLETELY WORKING WHEN WE WOULD GO ON VACATION, WE WOULD HAVE TO PULL OVER ON BUSY HIGHWAYS EVERY 20 MINUTES OR SO TO SET THE SPEEDOMETER BACK TO ZERO SO IT WOULDN'T SHOW ME GOING 120MPH. OF COURSE I CAN'T EVEN DO THAT NOW. I'M JUST AMAZED I HAVEN'T ENDED UP WITH A TICKET FOR MY SPEED OR MY RUNNING OR BRAKE LIGHTS. WE HAVE TAKEN THE ENVOY IN TO THE SHOP AND THEY TOLD US WE WOULD HAVE TO TAKE THE CAR IN TO A GM DEALER. I HAVE TO TAKE IT BACK IN THIS WEEK TO HAVE AIR WORKED ON AND WHO KNOWS HOW MUCH THAT WILL COST. I DON'T BELIEVE I SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE TO PAY OVER $500 FOR PARTS AND LABOR IN A CAR THAT IS CLEARLY DEFECTIVE AND SHOULD BE RECALLED. PLEASE HELP!! *TR
