problem #1

May 032004

Envoy 4WD 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 75,000 miles
On Monday, 5/3/04, my son backed our 1998 GMC Envoy out of his garage. The left front end dropped to the ground. According to GMC dealer, the ball joint and cv joints failed. Dealer advised us recall had been issued for GMC jimmys up to 1996 year, but nothing for 1998. Had my son been driving on the highway, serious injury or worse could have resulted.
