2003 GMC ENVOY XL Fuelpropulsion System Problems

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE A STRONG ODOR OF GAS ENTERING THE CABIN. FILL VEHICLE UP AND LARGE AMOUNT OF GAS POURS ON THE GROUND FROM UNDER THE VEHICLE. CLOSER INSPECTION REVEALS THE PART THAT ATTACHES TO THE GAS TANK IS BROKEN OFF CAUSING VAPORS TO ESCAPE AND NOT PROVIDING A SEAL TO CONTAIN THE SMELL. WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT NORMAL OPERATING SPEED VEHICLE LOSES OIL PRESSURE CAUSING IT TO DROP TO 0 AND MESSAGE APPEARS TO STOP ENGINE. BOTH INCIDENTS ARE SAFETY HAZARDS AND CAN CAUSE SERIOUS LIFE AN DEATH INCIDENTS IF ISSUES ARE NOT ADDRESSED BY THE CORPORATION. THIS OCCUR ON INTERSTATE 66 IN WASHINGTON, DC. IMMEDIATE RECALL OF ALL VEHICLES FROM GMC NEEEDS TO BE INITIATED.

WHEN IN PARK POSITION HEAVY GAS FUMES COMING FROM A LEAK AT THE TOP OF THE TANK. YOU CAN VISUALLY SEE THE GAS STAINS ON THE SIDES AND BOTTOM OF TANK.WHEN ROLLING TO A STOP THE FUMES RETURN.I'M GETTING HEADACHES AND BURNING OF MY EYES AND THROAT.I CHECKED MY VIN FOR RECALLS, THE PARTS INVOLVED ARE #14423C FUEL TANK INLET CHECK VALVE FRACTURE,AND #07076A FUEL TANK MODULAR RESERVOIR ASSEMBLY CORROSION #12166 FUEL FILLER NECK..I'M AFRAID EVERY TIME I DRIVE IT THAT I COULD BE BODILY HARMED AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT, A SPARK,SOMEONE FLICKING A CIGARETTE,A ACCIDENT, ANYTHING THAT WOULD TRIGGER A SPARK.

THE FUEL INLET SEAL ON THE TOP OF THE FUEL TANK HAD SEPARATED CAUSING A SMELL OF FUEL AND ALLOWING MATTER TO ENTER THE FUEL TANK FROM THE TOP...POSSIBLY CAUSING THE PREMATURE FAILING OF THE FUEL PUMP. WE UNDERSTAND GMC HAS EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON THE VEHICLE FOR THIS ISSUE TO 150,000 MILES. OUR VEHICLE HAD OVER 155,000 MILES WHEN THE PROBLEM OCCURED BUT WE NEVER RECEIVED NOTIFICATION FROM GMC OF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. HAD WE RECEIVED THIS NOTIFICATION WE WOULD HAVE TAKEN IN THE VEHICLE FOR AN IMMEDIATE REPAIR. THE FUEL PUMP FAILED AND WE HAD TO PURCHASE A NEW FUEL TANK (AS A RESULT OF THE FAULTY TOP SEAL) AND FUEL PUMP...COSTING US ALMOST $1,700. WE HAVE A COPY OF THE REPAIR BILL BUT I AM UNABLE TO SCAN AND UPLOAD IT HERE AT THIS TIME... I AM IN THE MILITARY AND WILL BE MOVING TO KOREA IN...

I HAD BEEN DRIVING AND PULLED INTO A FAST FOOD RESTAURANT AND WHEN I GOT OUT OF MY VEHICLE I NOTICED THE SMELL OF GASOLINE BEING CLOSE TO A GAS STATION I THOUGHT NOTHING OF IT WHEN GETTING BACK IN MY VEHICLE AFTER RETRIEVING MY FOOD I NOW SMELLED THE GASOLINE INSIDE MY VEHICLE STILL THOUGHT NOTHING THAT MAYBE THE FUMES WERE JUST LINGERING UNTIL THE NEXT DAY WHEN THE SMELL WAS STRONGER SO STRONG THAT MY CHILD WITH ASTHMA IMMEDIATELY HAD TO GET OUT OF THE VEHICLE SO BEING CAUTIOUS AS ANYONE I HAD MY HUSBAND TAKE A LOOK HE SMELLED THE GASOLINE BUT COULDN'T FIND A LEAK SO HE TOOK IT TO OUR LOCAL MECHANIC WHO THEN DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AND REMOVED THE TANK AND REPLACED IT WITH A USED TANK AND WHATEVER PART WAS NEEDED TO FIX THE ISSUE SO SINCE THEN I HAVE NOT SMELLED ANYMORE...

MY CAR WILL SHUT OFF WHEN I AM EITHER TURNING OR SLOWING DOWN WITHOUT ANY WARNING, I PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL, TURN THE KEY OFF THEN ON AGAIN AND IT STARTS LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED. THE ENGINE DOESN'T SHOW ANY WARNING LIGHTS IT JUST SHUTS OFF. THIS HAS HAPPENED NOW ABOUT 6 TIMES. I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER, BUT IF I AM GIVEN AN IDEA OF WHAT TO LOOK FOR I CAN TAKE IT TO MY MECHANIC WHO IS VERY QUALIFIED AND DID REPLACE A SENSOR THAT WENT BAD. PLEASE HELP

MECHANIC SAID FUEL RAIL RUPTURED DUE TO A FAULTY FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR AND LEAKED GASOLINE IN ENGINE COMPARTMENT THAT COULD HAVE CAUSED A FIRE INJURING OCCUPANTS. REPAIRS COST 1400DOLLARS

CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHY THIS IS NOT A RECALL IF SO MANY SUV'S HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

IT'S SEEMS CRAZY TO ME THAT THIS AGENCY THAT WAS CREATED TO PROTECT CONSUMERS FROM FAULTY VEHICLES CAN LET SO MANY COMPLAINTS AGAINST THIS MANUFACTURER THAT WAS BAILED OUT BY TAXPAYERS MONEY CAN BE SO BLIND TO THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE ON GMC PART. I HAVE SPENT COUNT LESS HOURS AND WAY TOO MUCH MONEY ON THIS VEHICLE, ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT MANY OTHER CONSUMERS ARE REPORTING THE SAME PROBLEMS. I HAVE LITERALLY SAT DOWN AND CRIED VOWING NEVER TO BY ANOTHER AMERICAN MADE CAR BECAUSE THEY ARE PIECES OF JUNK (AND THAT IS PUTTING IT NICELY). I HAVE PAID TO REPLACE THE OXYGEN SENSOR AND ALL THAT GOES WITH THAT; THE CATALYST CONVERTER TWICE; THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM THROUGHOUT THE VEHICLE AND NOW MY RADIO DOESN'T WORK BECAUSE THERE IS A SHORT THAT IS DRAINING THE BATTERY WHEN THE CAR IS TURNED OFF; THE SPEED CONTROL (MPH/RPM) DOESN'T WORK AND...
