“TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 GMC ENVOY DENALI. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START AND ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT WHEN THE VEHICLE WOULD START, IT WOULD CUT OFF IMMEDIATELY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BETTEN BAKER CHEVROLET BUICK GMC (14120 NORTHLAND DR, BIG RAPIDS, MI 49307 (231) 629-4340) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT AN ELECTRICAL FAILURE WAS FOUND, BUT THE DEALER DID NOT KNOW THE EXACT CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 126,000.”

“MY HUSBAND AND I WERE TRAVELING WHEN THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF WITH NO WARNING AT ALL AND ALL THE DASH BOARD LIGHTS CAME ON. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT RESTART BUT WOULD TURN. THIS HAPPENED SATURDAY 9/2/17 ON A COUNTRY HIGHWAY OUT IN NOWHERE . WE CALLED A TOW TRUCK. THANK GOD FOR CELLPHONES. ON 11/12/2016 HUB BEARINGS REPLACED. 11/15/16 MODULE AND CONNECTOR REPLACED AND FUEL LEVEL SENSORS AND RING REPLACED. THREE YEARS AGO A/C WENT OUT. REPLACED.”

“THE VEHICLE SHOWS THAT THE FUEL TANK IS ON EMPTY SHORTLY AFTER BEING FILLED UP. ALSO THE ENGINE WILL DIE AT RANDOMS TIMES DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. ALSO THE HEAD LAMPS FAIL AT RANDOM TIMES.”

“WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND OR WHILE COMING TO A STOP THE ENGINE JUST SHUTS ITSELF OFF WITHOUT WARNING. EVERYTHING IN THE INSIDE STAYS ON, BUT YOU HAVE TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND RE CRANK. THIS IS AN EXTREME SAFETY HAZARD AND NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO.”

“I AM SO SICK OF MY 06 GMC ENVOY XL. I TRULY GIVE UP. I HAD THE STABILITRAK AND REDUCED ENGINE LIGHT COME ON MY CAR FOR FIVE MONTHS. I HAVE REPLACED THE STEERING WHEEL SENSOR, THE THROTTLE BODY, AND HAD THE RELEARN THE IDLE THING DONE, TO NO AVAIL. THIS MAKES MY FOURTH TIME GOING TO THE DEALER, BECAUSE I THOUGHT THEY COULD FIX IT. I HAVE ALWAYS BOUGHT GM. IF GOD BLESSES ME WITH ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY TO BUY A CAR, IT WILL NOT BE A GM. IT THROWS MY CAR OFF. I'VE HAD TO PULL OVER AND START THE CAR OVER A THOUSAND TIMES. I'VE SEEN MANY FORUMS ONLINE ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, BUT THERE IS NO RECALL? I'VE EVEN CALLED GM. I STILL HAD TO PAY MONEY. RESETTING THE COMPUTER HAS DONE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. JUST WANTED TO RANT, BECAUSE BESIDES GIVING ME SOME OF MY MONEY BACK (TO THE TUNE OF A GRAND), WHAT CAN I DO?”
