NHTSA Complaint #10592124 — 2006 GMC ENVOY

I HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE 3 TIMES -8/2012, 2/2013, 3/2014 - SO I AM ON THE 4TH IGNITION SWITCH IN THIS CAR, MILEAGE NOW APPROX 108,000. THE 4X4, STABILITRAK, ABS AND EMERGENCY BRAKE LIGHTS COME ON THEN IT BEEPS REPEATEDLY. SOMETIMES CONCURRENTLY, SOMETIMES NOT THE AIR BLOWER STOPS WORKING AS WELL. THIS 3RD TIME, AFTER THE LIGHTS HAD BEEN COMING OFF/ON FOR A FEW DAYS, TURNING THE BLOWER ON WOULD TRIGGER THE LIGHTS TO COME ON. FOR EACH OF THE 3 TIMES, THE GMC DEALER HAS RECOMMENDED REPLACEMENT OF THE IGNITION SWITCH (2X AT MY COST) ON THE MOST RECENT REPAIR A VOLTAGE SPIKE WAS ACKNOWLEDGED BUT THE OPTION TO TRACK THIS BY INSTALLING INLINE FUSES WAS NOT EVEN OFFERED UNTIL I HAD TAKEN MY ISSUE TO A HIGHER AUTHORITY. I DECLINED AS I DON'T CARE TO PUT MORE MONEY IN A CAR THAT EVEN ONE OF THE DEALERSHIPS EMPLOYEES RECOMMENDED I JUST SELL AND BUY NEW. MY CONCERN IS WHETHER THIS CAR IS A HAZARD TO ME AND OTHERS? THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID WHEN THIS OCCURS THE IGNITION IS ESSENTIALLY OFF AND THE CAR COULD STOP BUT ANOTHER PERSON TOLD ME THAT NO, IT'S ANOTHER LEG OF THE IGNITION AND ITS OKAY. I DON'T KNOW WHO TO BELIEVE. ....UPDATED 08/12/14 *BF UPDATED 11/12/2014 *JS UPDATED 8/28/2017*CN
