Air condition blower motor caught fire in dash and burnt the vehicle

- Orlando, FL, USA

My vehicle just suddenly stopped dead, in the road after leaving my residence and all control was lost. Unable to put transmission in neutral to push vehicle off road. I had it repaired by a trained mechanic and was told it was a faulty ignition. I had the faulty ignition replaced and the vehicle was operational again along with the worry of this happening again.

We have a 2008 Envoy. We bought it brand new in 2008. The ignition switch has quit us 5 times. We usually have some warning. The first 3 times, the check engine light came on but I could eventually start the car and drive it to a mechanic to be checked out. The 4th time we were heading out of town, check engine light came on, my husband pulled over to side of the road and car quit. Would not start, had to tow it to mechanic. This last time, no warning, just quit as I was driving home. I was able to get it started after sitting in the middle of the street for 30 minutes or so, drove it home, quit again and had to tow it to mechanic. I am afraid to take it out on the highway by myself. Afraid this vehicle could cause a wreak, and possible kill or injure us or others. There aren't very many miles on it, so it is not a worn out vehicle.

The contact owns a 2008 GMC Envoy. The contact stated that there was a random electrical short and the low beams failed to illuminate. The vehicle was taken to a mechanic who changed the low beams, relay, switch and checked the fuses, but the low beams continued to randomly short without warning. The contact was unable to prevent the random failure. The manufacturer provided no solution. The failure mileage was not available.

Campaign id 14V-755. My VIN does not fall under this campaign or GM recall. I am having this exact same issue with the low beams shutting off at night and has happened twice. Vehicle was in motion.

There are times when I don't know if my vehicle will start. I put the key in and sometimes it starts right up and other times, I have to keep turning and turning and wait until it will catch on. There were times where I had wait up to an hour for my car to start. I never know when because I don't have an indicator when the vehicle will decide to start. There have been times when it would work fine for one month with no incident, then it will not switch on. Seems like when I take it to the shop, that is when the car decides to act right. And the service stabilitrac light has been on since I purchased the vehicle only to find out that I need a rack and pinion. I really think the ignition switch should be recalled. I contacted the dealer and they informed me that my vehicle was not on the recall list. Updated 09/15/15

On or about Dec 17, 2014, we were leaving a school function around 7 pm. The low beam lights went out unsuspecting; we only had access to high beam lights. We stopped several times to check connections but no result. We also turned the vehicle off/on to try and reset but no result. Have not had another occurrence. We learned via news that a recall has been issued for this problem on 2006-2009 GMC Envoy. Colonial auto center GMC dealer (charlottesville) is advising there is no recall...they were called on 01/21/15. Also, a "service stibi control" message always appears. It has been checked by a couple dealers. Colonial changes a booster and message continues to come on...

Driving along street and all engine lights went out and engine stopped. Lost power steering and had to fight to get over to side of street and safety. This has happened 3 times since the first time each time the ignition switch required replacement.

Engine stalled when making a turn. Lost all powder the dash panel had no light lit up.I had no power steering and no power brakes. Was able to control due to low speed. Turned key off and the it restarted when key turned back on. On March 19, 2014 took it to benntt Chevrolet burick for check. They found faulty ignition switch and it for $259.88. The 2008 Envoy were not on the recall list and someone should check all 2008 Envoy still on the road.

Driving on highway in rush hour traffic @ approximately 55mph. Suddenly noted loss of power without warning, with no check engine lights on ( until managed to get car to side of highway and put in park, then multiple icons lighting up). Had towed to dealership, they almost immediately told me a faulty ignition switch was the most probable cause. Of note, car went on to have ignition switch needing replaced @ 74,218 miles. This time I was again driving on the interstate at approximately 65mph, but this time suddenly felt car losing power, and no check engine light once again. I managed to get to berm, put in park, with multiple icons then lighting up, as if "shorting out". shut ignition off, took multiple attempts to restart, had towed. -at 105,162 miles, again replacement of same part, after having fully lost power without any warning this time, though this time occurred while going down my driveway. ******* note, I do not have a "heavy" key ring nor was there jarring from rough roads on any of these 3 occasions.

Our SUV has been in the shop so many times for stability trac control electrical window switch, two steering columns out side temp reading, new shock, new converters.

Speedometer has weird sounds like birds flapping wings. The speedometer has been replaced three times. GM usa claims that it is a defect that they cannot repair. The Envoy is still under warranty. Really isn't acceptable. Makes one wonder if the readings on mileage, and speed are accurate.

I purchased a 2008 Envoy denali 7/08 during the middle of November while drive the temp gage drop to the lowest point and started cutting off hesitating to start. I then contact on-star they stated it was the cooling system and should be taken to the dealer on 10/19/09 I went and was told it was the temp senor which was replace that Tuesday. Thursday the same issue Accord again I notified on-star they stated this time it was the transmission Friday I went to the deal to be told they could not work on the car until Monday. As I ws speaking to a tech they stated it sounds like the trans and the mgr approached and stated I am handling this and directed me toward the desk and stated he had a rental for me and arranged a ride for me. I truly believe there is something wrong with this car and to make this worse my navigation system has failed me twice as well.
