2007 GMC Envoy owner complaints

There have been 3 recalls on this vehicle. The module was "fixed" but was not replaced during the first recall. I have not received any further recalls from gm for this problem. Each time I check the VIN on the computer or with the dealer, it comes up "no further recalls on this vehicle". The "fix" only lasted about 11 months!! (and that was less than 9000 miles, since I do not drive much). *js

Headlights failed causing lights to go out while driving. Only the bright lights will work. Some kind of electrical malfunction. From my research, there have been many others. *tr

I have had my envoy slt now for 2 years and since I've driven it, the check tire pressure is always on for my right rear tire always reads 0, my mirrors have a mind of there own, the heated seats don't always work and now my left directional doesn't work! Got a letter stating there was a recall on the driverside door but no parts available! Unhappy GMC envoy driver not sure its such a safe SUV. *tr

I tried to unlock my car doors with the key fob. All other doors unlocked except driver's side door. I manually unlocked it and noticed an odor that smelled "hot". I proceeded to turn on my car and try to roll the window down which suddenly would not work. The entire panel on the drivers side door would not function. I drove about .3 miles and my drivers side window started to go down and then it stopped it did this again and then the entire window went down and I heard a tiny "poof' and smoke started barreling out of the entire door panel. I immediately threw my car into park, turned it off, opened the door, jumped out and turned on the hazard lights. Called the fire department and by the time they arrived the smoke had gone away they tried to start it and it turned over very quickly,

Low beam headlights failed during driving at night nearly causing a serious accident. Many lives could be affected because of this well known design issue not being addressed by GMC. There is a GMC recall for this same problem, but my vehicle isn't included. GMC needs to re-evaluate this issue and include more vehicles. They know the problem exists and should make efforts to include all affected vehicles. *tr

Weather is in the single digits and I parked my 2007 envoy denali in my drive. I don't have a garage so it sits out in the extreme heat add cold. I thought I heard a noise outside and when I looked out my rear window was completely shattered. Nothing hit it, nobody was down our isolated lane, it just decided to fail. I looked online and there are other owners mentioning similar problems with envoys and trailblazers over the years. I have had multiple vehicles over my 54 years and I have never heard of a rear window exploding on it's own. To cut to the chase my vehicle was 9 months out of warranty, but I did get some money from the gm rep and the dealership. They told me the cost of the replacement was $850 and I was asked to chip in $200. I think this is different than tires or br

At fill up gas gauge goes to full and stays there for around 20 miles, then drops to empty and stays there. This is an ongoing problem for several weeks now. Apparently this is a known issue, with the vehicle.

I was stopped at a traffic light , I was listening to my radio . The light changed I put my foot on the gas pedal and truck didn't move.. It was then I realized the it stalled. I put in neutral and started it back up. And continued to work. After this initial time it was happening two to three a day , atleast three times a week for months.. I took it back to dealer 15 times . I have a paper trail for this. They told me they could not find anything wrong with it. I have had my vehicle for going three years and have only put 11,000 miles becauseii am afraid to drive it any long distance . I don't want to break down and be stuck alone. I have already put a complaint into gm about this and they have done nothing . It is total bull. All I want is my car fix so I can enjoy it. I am paying for a

The hidden weldment holding the rear liftgate strut broke causing the strut to become dislodged and allowing the gate to violently fall on my back, shoulders and head. While painful for me this could have catastrophic impact on a child. I took the vehicle to a gm dealer who said they couldn't repair this and suggest I talk to a body shop. *tr

Fuel sending unit is defective after 40,000 miles. Tank readings inaccurate. I live in an urban area where it is not safe to be out of fuel and broken down on side of road. Dealer admits this problem is common for gm envoy/rainer/trailblazer - numerous online forums list this as a defect - yet gm does nothing to rectify the problem. Item is out of warranty and gm won't cover it. *tr
