NHTSA Complaint #10597251 — 2006 GMC ENVOY

ONE EVENING I WAS DRIVING ON THE MAIN HIGHWAY AND MY INSIDE LIGHTS CAME ON. I PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO CHECK THE SWITCH BUT IT WAS ON AUTO. I TURNED IT OFF BUT THE LIGHTS STAYED ON. THEY WERE STILL ON WHEN I GOT HOME AND PARKED TURNED OFF THE IGNITION THE LIGHTS WERE STILL ON. THE NEXT MORNING MY CAR COULDN'T START BECAUSE IT HAD RAN MY BATTERY DOWN. ANOTHER INCIDENT WAS MY HEADLIGHTS WENT OFF ONE NIGHT WHILE I WAS DRIVE ON THE HIGHWAY. I AM ALSO HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY GAS GAUGE. MY GAS LIGHT COMES ON LIKE I AM OUT OF GAS. THE LAST TIME I FILL MY CAR UP WITH GAS IT HESITATED. IT DIDN'T WANT TO START. THE LIGHT STAYS ON WHEN MY CAR IS FULL OF GAS. I SMELL GAS. I SAT AT THE GAS STATION FOR AN OUR BECAUSE MY CAR DIDN'T WANT TO START. THE SOUND OF MY RADIO GOES IN AND OUT. MY LIGHTS CONTINUE TO GO ON AND OFF WHEN DRIVING OR WHEN NOT DRIVING. ONE MORNING I GOT UP TO GO TO WORK, WENT TO START MY CAR AND THE HEADLIGHTS WERE ON BUT THE SWITCH WAS OFF. I COULDN'T GET THE LIGHTS TO GO OFF WHEN I GOT TO WORK. THEY STAYED ON AT LEAST FOR 4 HRS. SOMETIME THE LIGHTS DOESN'T COME ON WHEN I PUT THEM ON. I REALLY HAVE SOME WEIRD THINGS GO ON WITH MY VEHICLE. I DID GET THE MODULE CHANGED AND THEY DID SOME RE-WIRING IN THE DOOR. ONE YEAR BEFORE THE MODULE, I GOT THEM TO CHECK MY CAR FOR A SHORT AND I WAS TOLD FROM THEM THAT MY WIRES WERE OVER HEATED. I PAID ABOUT $900 TO FIX IT. I STRONGLY THINK IT IS A DETECT SOME WHERES OR SOMETHING THAT WOULD CAUSE MY WIRES TO OVER HEAT. *TR
