2 YEARS AGO THE MAINTENANCE REQUIRED LIGHT HAS BEEN ON, WHEN CHECKED BY 2-3 MECHANICS THEY SAID IT COULD BE THE GAS CAP. THAT DIDN'T REMEDY THE SITUATION, THE LIGHT STAYED ON, THEN RECENTLY THE FUEL GAUGE STARTED DROPPING TO EMPTY AFTER A LITTLE LESS THAN HALF A TANK WAS USED. THEN FILLING THE GAS TANK CAUSED IT TO OVERFLOW IF YOU FILL IT TO FULL. AS OF TODAY THE CAR WHEN SHIFTED INTO REVERSE, SOMETHING CAME LOOSE INSIDE THE SHIFTER, NOW IT IS STUCK IN NEUTRAL.

GAS GAUGE IS NOT WORKING. AMOUNT OF GAS IN TANK UNKNOWN DUE TO THIS ERROR, NOT ONLY MAKING DRIVING UNSAFE, IT IS ALSO A MAJOR INCONVENIENCE. WE HAVE REPLACED FUEL FILTER IN GAS TANK AND PROBLEM STILL PERSISTS. NOW OUR MECHANIC HAS SUGGESTED A NEW IMSTRUMENT CLUSTER.....$500 LATER WILL IT BE FIXED?' ALL THE WHILE GMC KNOWS OF THIS PROBLEM.

MY VEHICLE WAS MAKING A JET LIKE SOUND ON START UP AND WHILE DRIVING AND EVENTUALLY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. IT ALSO WAS MAKING A CLICKING SOUND FROM THE ELECTRONIC HEATING UNIT. I TOOK IT IN TO A CERTIFIED GMC DEALER AND THEY SAID THE CLUTCH FAN NEEDED TO BE REPLACED (EXPENSIVE REPAIR). COULD NOT TELL WHERE THE CLICKING WAS COMING FROM AT THE TIME (1/6/11 CLICKING WILL NOT STOP - ENDED UP BEING A DOOR ACTUATOR). I DID SOME RESEARCH ON THESE PROBLEM AND THEY ARE VERY COMMON IN THESE VEHICLE. I CALLED GMC CUSTOMER SERVICE TO MAKE A COMPLAINT BECAUSE AT A LITTLE OVER 59000 MILES THESE PARTS SHOULD NOT HAVE GONE BAD. I WISH GMC WOULD CONSIDER A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM AS WELL AS OTHER MAJOR THINGS.

2003 GMC ENVOY WITH A LIST OF PROBLEMS **NAR**CC THE CONSUMER BEGAN TO HEAR A KNOCKING AND PINGING IN THE ENGINE ON COLD STARTS AND FELT A HESITATION WHEN THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SHIFTED INTO GEAR. AFTER MANY COMPLAINTS, IT WAS FINALLY DISCOVERED THE ENGINE KNOCK WAS DUE TO SHORTER PISTONS IN THE RE-DESIGNED ENGINE AND THE HESITATION IN THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTING REQUIRED REPROGRAMMING. THE CONSUMER WAS TOLD HE WOULD HAVE TO LIVE WITH THE ENGINE KNOCK, BECAUSE IT COULD BE MORE TROUBLE TAKING THE ENGINE APART. ON A SEPARATE OCCASION, THE ENGINE STALLED DUE TO THE BATTERY DYING. FROM APRIL 2004 TO OCTOBER 2004 THE BATTERY FAILED SEVERAL TIMES AND HAD TO BE RE-CHARGED. DURING THAT SAME TIME THE ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND EACH TIME IT HAPPENED, THE DEALER WOULD HAVE TO REPROGRAM THE ENGINE COMPUTER. THE RADIO WAS NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY WHICH PRIMARILY CONSISTED OF STATIC. THE DRIVER INFORMATION...
