2006 GMC ENVOY XL Fuel System Gasoline Problems

NOTICED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE FOR THE PAST WEEK HAS BEEN ACTING VERY STRANGE. I HAD A HALF TANK OF GAS AND DRIVE VERY LITTLE DAILY (MAYBE 10 MILES) AND IN 3 DAYS IT WENT FROM 1/2 TANK TO EMPTY. I ACTUALLY THOUGHT MY GAS WAS LEAKING OUT, BUT NO GAS SPOTS OR LEAKS. NOW, IT WAS ON EMPTY, LIGHT CAME ON, AND STARTED TO BING, AND THE ENGINE LIGHT IS ON ALSO. I FILLED THE CAR UP AND FUEL LIGHT IS STILL ON AND SO IS THE ENGINE LIGHT. INDICATING A PROBLEM AT THE FUEL GAGE. I LOVE THIS CAR, I HAVE NEVER LOVED A CAR MORE...BUT, NOW READING ALL THE HUGE NUMBER OF PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS...AND THE COST TO HAVE IT FIXED IS WAYYYYYYYYY MORE THAN I CAN PAY OR AFFORD. I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW I AM GOING TO PAY THE FIRST...

GAS GAUGE FAILED TO READ THE CORRECT FUEL LEVEL IN THE TANK. THANKFULLY, WE NOTICED BEFORE RUNNING OUT OF GAS ON THE HIGHWAY. FUEL GAUGE WOULD FLOAT BETWEEN 1/4 AND 3/4 TANK SO YOU COULDN'T TELL HOW MUCH GAS YOU HAD. *TR

FUEL GAUGE FLUCTUATES BETWEEN FULL AND EMPTY. GAUGE DOES NOT SHOW FUEL LEVELS. *TR

FILLED MY GAS TANK UP AND THE FUEL GAUGE WENT TO EMPTY AFTER FILLING. EVERY TIME I FILL THE TANK, IT GOES TO EMPTY AND THEN AFTER DRIVING A BIT THE GAUGE STARTS RE-REGISTERING. I HAVE NO IDEA IF IT IS ACCURATE ANYMORE. EVAPORATOR PURGE SOLENOID HAS ALSO WENT OUT CAUSING THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TO COME ON. THE LACK OF AN ACCURATE GAS GAUGE IS A SAFETY ISSUE. PLEASE RECALL THIS VEHICLE. *TR

GAS GAUGE BOUNCED AROUND INTERMITTENTLY FOR WEEKS REGARDLESS OF FUEL LEVEL. NOW IT JUST READS EMPTY. AIR COMPRESSOR HASN'T WORKED SINCE LAST NOVEMBER. FUEL PUMP WENT OUT LAST NIGHT. REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY HAS NEVER WORKED. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON. WHAT A LEMON. WILL NEVER BUY GMC EVER AGAIN. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 GMC ENVOY XL. THE CONTACTED STATED THAT AFTER REFUELING, THE FUEL GAUGE DISPLAYED AN EMPTY READING. THE FAILURE RECURRED WHENEVER THE VEHICLE WAS REFUELED. THE VEHICLE WAS NEVER TAKEN FOR FAILURE DIAGNOSTICS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 35,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 81,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 GMC ENVOY XL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER REFUELING THE FUEL TANK, THE FUEL GAUGE WOULD FLUCTUATE AND PROVIDE ERRONEOUS FUEL LEVEL READINGS. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BY AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND THEY ADVISED HIM TO REPLACE THE FUEL PUMP. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 61,240. UPDATED 12/12/11*LJ UPDATED 01/18/12

I HAVE A 2006 GMC ENVOY AND I NOTICED WHEN I FILL THE GAS TANK THE GAUGE SHOWS THAT I'M COMPLETELY EMPTY AND MY ENGINE LIGHT GOES ON. MY ALARM FOR LOW FUEL KEEPS GOING OFF. THE CAR HAS DIED IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC SEVERAL TIMES BECAUSE OF THIS. AFTER I DRIVE AND USE APPROX. 2 GALLONS OF GAS THE GAUGE RESETS. I NOTICED ON THE INTERNET THAT MANY PEOPLE BEEN HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

I AM HAVING A PROBLEM WITH MY GAS GAUGE. AFTER FILLING UP MY VEHICLE WITH FUEL, THE GAS GAUGE STAYED ON EMPTY AND THE LOW FUEL LIGHT STAYED ON. SOMETIMES THE GAS GAUGE WOULD GO UP A LITTLE BIT AND THE LOW FUEL LIGHT WILL GO OUT BUT NORMALLY IT STAYS CLOSE TO EMPTY WITH THE LOW FUEL INDICATOR ON WHETHER THE CARS FUEL TANK IS FULL OR HALF EMPTY. I HEARD ON THE NEWS THAT NHTSA WAS LOOKING INTO THE GM SUV'S HAVING GAS GAUGE PROBLEMS 2 DAYS AFTER I FIRST STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS. GOOD TIMING. I TOOK MY CAR TO A REPAIR FACILITY AND THEY SAID IT IS A BAD SENSOR IN THE GAS TANK. THEY CHARGED ME $90 JUST TO DO THE DIAGNOSTIC ON THE PROBLEM AND IT WOULD COST $600 TO REPLACE THE SENSOR BECAUSE THEY WOULD HAVE TO PULL THE GAS TANK OFF THE CAR....

FUEL SYSTEM/GAS GAUGE SENSOR FAILED WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE IS ONGOING, AS A RESULT I HAVE RUN OUT OF GAS 3 TIMES WITH MY SMALL CHILDREN...ONCE IN THE LEFT LANE OF A VERY BUSY ROAD WHERE I WAS ALMOST REAR-ENDED SEVERAL TIMES (SPEED LIMIT ON ROAD WAS 55 MPH). THERE IS NO WARNING WHEN YOU ARE GETTING READY TO RUN OUT OF GAS I.E. THE LOW GAS LIGHT IS ON CONSTANTLY AND THE REMINDER SIGNAL DOES NOT GO OFF. I TRY TO GAUGE WHEN I NEED TO GET GAS BASED ON MILES I HAVE DRIVEN BUT MILEAGE VARIES DEPENDING ON THE TYPE OF DRIVING THAT YOU ARE DOING SO THE NUMBER OF MILES YOU GET PER GALLON CAN VARY GREATLY. ALL 3 TIMES THAT I HAVE RUN OUT OF GAS I WAS ON MY WAY TO GET GAS. I HAVE NOT REPLACED THIS PART BECAUSE IT IS A...

AFTER FILLING THE VEHICLE TANK WITH GASOLINE, I STARTED THE VEHICLE AND THE GAS GAGE IMMEDIATELY WENT TO EMPTY AND THE ALARM SOUNDED. THE GAGE RECOVERED AFTER THE LEVEL DROPPED TO ABOUT 1/3 AND OPERATED CORRECTLY FOR THE REST OF THE TANK. THEN THE GAGE BECAME MORE ERRATIC AND HAS NO INDICATION OF THE AMOUNT IN THE TANK. I UNDERSTAND THAT THIS HAS BEEN A COMMON ISSUE WITH THE 2006 ENVOY AND IS VERY EXPENSIVE TO REPAIR AS THEY MUST REPLACE THE FUEL PUMP AND SENDING UNIT IN THE TANK.

FUEL LEVEL ERRATIC THEN WAS ON EMPTY REPLACED SENSOR -OUT OF WARRANTY. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 GMC ENVOY XL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE WAS INOPERABLE AND SHE WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE HOW MUCH GAS WAS ACTUALLY IN THE VEHICLE CAUSING HER TO RUN OUT OF GAS INTERMITTENTLY. THE DEALER INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN ANY RECALLS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND NO REPAIRS WERE PERFORMED. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 95,100 AND THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 94,000.

OUR FUEL GAUGE ON OUR 2006 GMC ENVOY XL STOPPED WORKING A FEW MONTHS AGO. THE GAUGE WILL FLUCTUATE BETWEEN EMPTY AND A FULL TANK. THE ESTIMATED REPAIR COST IS OVER $850. *TR

GAS GAUGE DOES NOT FUNCTION CORRECTLY. *TR

FUEL GAUGE IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY, IT WILL CONTINOUSLY MOVE FROM EMPTY TO FULL. ** 2ND COMPLAINT- I HAVE HAD THE ENGINE REBUILT BECAUSE OF" INTAKE MANIFOLD ASSEMBLY FAILURE" THE PART # IS GM 12571609 AND HAS FAILED TWICE. THE LAST REPAIR WAS 4-29-2011 THE FIRST REPAIR WAS 9-15-2010 SAME PART SAME PROBLEM. THIS REPAIR COST WAS $3500.00

APPROXIMATELY ONE YEAR AGO, THE FUEL GAUGE STARTED READING INACCURATELY AND SHOWING EITHER A FULL TANK OR AN EMPTY TANK. FINALLY IT JUST WENT TO THE EMPTY SIDE OF THE GAUGE. I USED THE ODOMETER TO ESTIMATE GAS USAGE AND NEVER LET IT GO OVER 300 MILES W/O A FILL UP. WHEN I TOOK IT IN FOR SERVICE, THE REPAIR SHOP DROPPED THE FUEL TANK AND REPLACED THE FUEL SENDING UNIT, THE BILL WAS APPROXIMATELY $400.00. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 GMC ENVOY XL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE WOULD READ EMPTY WHEN SHE REFUELED THE FUEL TANK TO CAPACITY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO DIAGNOSED A FAULTY FUEL GAUGE AND ADVISED THAT THE FUEL SYSTEM WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED AND THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 25,000 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 36,000. UPDATED 07/26/11 *BF UPDATED 08/03/11

AFTER EXITING INTERSTATE AND PULLING INTO PARKING LOT OF OUR CHILD CARE PROVIDER, CAR RAN OUT OF GAS AND CAME TO A STOP. FUEL GAUGE INDICATED THAT THERE WAS APPROX 1/4 TANK OF GAS. WALKED TO GAS STATION WITH MY TWO CHILDREN TO BUY A GAS CAN AND FILL TANK UP. GAS GAUGE HAS CONTINUED TO BE INACCURATE. WHEN GAS TANK IS FULL, THE "LOW GAS LIGHT" TURNS ON. AFTER DRIVING APPROX 50 MILES, LIGHT GOES OFF AND GAUGE INDICATED CAR HAS APPROX 3/4 TANK, ALTHOUGH THE GAS GAUGE FLUCTUATES BETWEEN 3/4 TANK FULL AND 1/4 TANK FULL. WE NOW HAVE TO SET THE "TRIP" BUTTON TO 0 EVERY TIME WE FILL THE ENVOY WITH A FULL TANK OF GAS AND WE REFILL WHEN MILAGE IS AT APPROX 250 MILES. THERE HAVE BEEN TIMES THAT WE HAVE ADDED 23 GALLONS OF GAS (ALMOST A COMPLETELY EMPTY TANK) AND GAS GAUGE...

THE GAS GAUGE IS READING EMPTY ALTHOUGH JUST FILLED WITH GAS. IT STARTED FLUCTUATING BUT NOW IT JUST REMAINS ON EMPTY DESPITE GAS TANK BEING FULL. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME, I HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. THE FIRST TIME IT WAS CHANGED FREE OF CHANGE BECAUSE CAR WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. THERE IS SOMETHING OBVIOUSLY DEFECTIVE WITH THE GAS GAUGE OF THIS CAR AND IT IS CERTAINLY A SAFETY HAZARD OF NOT KNOWING WHEN YOU NEED TO REFILL, VEHICLE STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD WITH MY THREE LITTLE CHILDREN IN IT AND COSTLY REPAIRS. GMC MUST BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIS DEFECT AND A RECALL SHOULD BE DONE IMMEDIATELY. *TR

FUEL GAUGE STARTED ACTING UP AND GOING FROM FULL TO EMPTY. WITHIN DAYS IT COMPLETELY QUIT WORKING AND NOW SHOWS EMPTY WHEN FULL. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ALSO CAME ON. *TR

SUMMARY: I REQUEST THAT NHTSA OPEN AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE PERFORMANCE/RELIABILITY OF THE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR INSTALLED IN MODEL YEAR 2006 GMC ENVOY XL VEHICLES. THE FUEL TANK LEVEL SENSOR IS DEFECTIVE AND COULD RESULT IN VEHICLE RUNNING OUT OF FUEL, STALL, AND BEING REAR ENDED BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. THIS ALMOST HAPPENED TO ME ON NEW JERSEY TURNPIKE. I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT I STILL HAD A FEW GALLONS LEFT AFTER NUMEROUS TIMES THE FUEL LIGHT CAME ON AND OFF AND THEN GOING BACK TO 1/4 FULL. *TR

GAUGE DOES NOT WORK ENGINE GAS LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON. GAS CAP INDICATOR IS ON AND OFF. CHANGED ON 3RD GAS CAP. *TR

FUEL METER REPEATEDLY INCORRECT ON 2006 GMC ENVOY. AFTER FILLING THE CAR, THE FUEL LIGHT WILL ILLUMINATE AND THE GAS METER WILL READ EMPTY. DRIVING WILL CAUSE THE GAS METER TO BOUNCE BETWEEN 0 - FULL SPORADICALLY - SOMETIMES STOPPING IN THE MIDDLE, AT 1/4, 3/4, 1/2 TANK. ALWAYS INCORRECT. VERY DANGEROUS. NO IDEA WHERE MY FUEL LEVEL IS AT ANY TIME. *TR

OWN A 2006 GMC ENVOY WITH 40,000 MILES .THE SENDING UNIT IN FUEL TANK IS FAULTY. WHEN YOU FILL THE TANK IT WILL SAY FULL AND THEN IT WILL READ EMPTY. IT GOES UP AND DOWN BUT IT USUALLY READS EMPTY AND IS NEVER CORRECT. *TR

2006 GMC ENVOY XL GAS GAUGE READS EMPTY AFTER FILLING, THEN SLOWLY MOVES UP AFTER DRIVING BUT WILL CONTINUE TO LOSE PRESSURE UNTIL IT READS EMPTY AND THE LIGHT IS ON, THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. *TR

I OWN A 2006 GMC ENVOY XL. APPROXIMATELY 1 MONTH AGO, THE FUEL GAUGE STARTED SHOWING EMPTY WHEN THERE WAS A FULL TANK OF GAS. IT WOULD RESET TO THE ACTUAL READING WHEN I WOULD TURN THE VEHICLE OFF AND TURN IT BACK ON. IT WOULD STAY ON THE ACTUAL READING AND THEN A MINUTE LATER THE DIAL WOULD GO DOWN TO EMPTY. I'VE BEEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE LIKE THIS FOR A MONTH. NOW THE FUEL GAUGE WILL NOT FUNCTION AT ALL. IT SHOWS EMPTY ALL THE TIME EVEN WHEN THERE IS A FULL TANK OF GAS. I HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH GAS IS IN MY TANK AND IT IS VERY FRUSTRATING. I HAVE TO DO QUITE A BIT OF TRAVELING DUE TO MY NATURE OF EMPLOYMENT AND FIND IT DANGEROUS TO DRIVE WITH THIS TYPE OF DEFECT. CURRENTLY, I HAVE 81,000 MILES AND THE WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED. AFTER...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 GMC ENVOY. THE CONTACT STATED THE VEHICLE STALLED DUE TO LACK OF GASOLINE FUEL DESPITE THAT THE FUEL LEVEL GAUGE INDICATED THAT THERE WAS FUEL IN THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE NEEDLE WOULD FLUCTUATE BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN FUEL LEVELS. THE CONTACT BELIEVED THERE TO BE A PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL PUMP. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INSPECTED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 45,000. UPDTATED 2/17/11 *CN UPDATED 02/23/11

FUEL TANK GAUGE SENSOR DOESN'T WORK PROPERLY. THIS DEFECT COULD RESULT IN SOMEONE RUNNING OUT OF GAS AND BEING STRANDED OR MAY EVEN CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO STALL OR NOT START AT ALL. *TR

2006 GMC ENVOY XL - FUEL GAGE NOT FUNCTIONING OCCASIONALLY READS EMPTY WITH SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT ON EVEN AFTER FILLING UP. APPEARS COMMON ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL. VEHICLE RUNNING OUT OF FUEL WITHOUT WARNING CAN LEAD TO SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES ESPECIALLY ON HIGHWAY. WITH NUMEROUS FILED COMPLAINTS, UNFAVORABLE BLOGS DOCUMENTING THE ISSUE AND GM DEALERS / SERVICE WELL AWARE OF THE PROBLEM IT IS TIME FOR A REPAIR OF THIS MANUFACTURER'S PROBLEM. *TR

GAS GUAGE READS EMPTY, EVEN AFTER FILLING TANK. IT SOMETIMES FLUCTUATES, BUT RETURNS TO EMPTY WITH THE WARNING LIGHT ON AND ALARM SOUNDING. THIS IS A 2006 ENVOY XL WITH 50,000 MILES. I AM GREATLY CONCERNED ABOUT THE VEHICLE RUNNING OUT OF GAS AND BEING SUBSEQUENTLY IMPACTED FROM THE REAR, ESPECIALLY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. I HAVE READ OVER 400 COMPLAINTS ONLINE, AFFECTING MANY VEHICLE YEARS AND MODELS. WHEN WILL ACTION BE TAKEN TO RECALL AND REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE UNITS? AFTER BAILING OUT GM WITH TAXPAYER DOLLARS, I WOULD EXPECT THAT GM WOULD FOLLOW THE CORRECT ETHICAL COURSE AND BOTH REDESIGN AND REPLACE THE UNIT IN ALL THE VEHICLE YEARS AFFECTED; I BELIEVE AN EXISTING COMPLAINT ALREADY EXISTS, COMPLAINT(DP10001)

FILLED UP 06 GMC ENVOY WITH GASOLINE AND GAS GAUGE NEVER MADE IT TO THE FILL LINE. NOW THE ENGINE LIGHT IS ON AND THE GAS GAUGE READS EMPTY AND THE GAS LIGHT IS NOW ON.VERY CONCERNED WITH THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS ON THIS SITE AND NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE BY GMC. ALL I DRIVE IS GMC VEHICLES AND GMC SHOULD DO THE RIGHT THING FOR ITS LOYAL CUSTOMERS. *TR

FAULTY FUEL TANK SENSOR IN MY 2006 GMC ENVOY. FILLED MY TRUCK UP ONLY FOR THE GAS GAUGE TO READ EMPTY. THEN MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON! TOOK IT TO THE MECHANIC WHO TOLD ME THE FUEL TANK SENSOR FAILED AND HE NOTED IT A COMMON PROBLEM IN THE ENVOY. ITS COSTING ME 800.00 TO FIX THIS. I HAVE DONE SOME WEB RESEARCH AND IT INDEED LOOKS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM, I FIND THIS VERY DISTURBING. *TR

THE FUEL TANK LEVEL SENSOR IS DEFECTIVE. THIS MAY RESULT IN VEHICLE RUNNING OUT OF FUEL,STALL, BEING REAR ENDED OR STRANDED IN HARSH WINTER CONDITIONS. *TR

2006 GMC ENVOY XL --SAME PROBLEM HERE. IT STARTED ACTING UP JUST AFTER THE WARRANTY RAN OUT (JUST UNDER 40,000 MILES)! CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON BECAUSE OF THE SENSOR AND WILL NOT PASS INSPECTION BECAUSE THE LIGHT IS "ON" FILL UP TANK WRITE DOWN MILEAGE IS GETTING OLD. TIME FOR OUR STIMULUS FROM GM! DO THE RIGHT THING AND RECALL THE DEFECTIVE SENSORS. FUEL GAUGE ALWAYS READS EMPTY NOW --COULD RUN OUT OF GAS WITHOUT KNOWLEDGE ANYTIME/ANYWHERE. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 ENVOY XL THAT HAS A FAULTY GAS GAUGE. IT SHOWS EMPTY MOST OF THE TIME. I HAVE CONTACTED ONSTAR AND LET THEM RUN A DIAGNOSTIC OF THE SITUATION. THEY TELL ME THAT THE COMPUTER WILL SENSE A LOW OR EMPTY FUEL TANK AND SHUT THE ENGINE DOWN AS TO NOT HARM THE ENGINE. I HAVE READ A LOT OF BLOGS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM ON A LOT OF ENVOYS AND HAVE SEEN NO RECALLS ON IT. CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN TO ME WHY NOT ? I DON'T WANT A $500 BILL TO FIX THEIR PROBLEM OF A LOT OF ENVOYS. I GUESS THEY ARE WAITING TILL SOME ONE GETS KILLED TO DO THAT. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 GMC ENVOY. THE GAS GAUGE HAS BEEN STICKING AND NOT SHOWING CORRECT GAS READING. VERY FRUSTRATING AND AFTER RESEARCH IT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM. TOO EXPENSIVE TO FIX.
