problem #2

Jan 272012

Envoy 6-cyl

  • 94,000 miles
At approximately 8 am Friday January 27th I opened the back hatch of my GMC Envoy. Approximately 4-6 inches pulling it down to shut it the entire window shattered all over me, the ground and inside my car. I called my insurance, paid the deductible to have it replaced, it was fixed and then today January 28th, one day after having it replaced I was closing the door again and at approximately the same point in closing it completely shattered again. This is twice in two days. I was told the first time it probably had to do with the weather but the weather was warmer today than yesterday and several forums have shown this problem occurring in all weather conditions. This seems to be a vehicle issue vs a weather issue.

problem #1

Envoy 4WD 6-cyl

  • 72,000 miles
The wipers were the first to go. That needed a control module. The touch pads for the tail gate were next. First the drop down then the swing. Then the right side passenger door inside handle stopped working. Then the left side rear door outside handle doesn't work. Then the four wheel drive doesn't work. Then the fuel gauge doesn't work. Now the passenger's window doesn't open. 5th speed on the heater stopped working. What is the matter with GMC? that is a high end vehicle and as such should not be plagued with such problems.
