We have classified the 51 complaints from 2007 GMC Envoy about ELECTRICAL SYSTEM into the following categories.
I rolled my driver's window down this morning and tried to roll it back up and it acted like it didn't want to go back up. it started to go up and then it stopped after a few seconds and i tried hitting the button again and nothing happened. then i hit the button again and it started to go up but very slowly then it stopped again. i did this for a bit until the window went all the way up. this has happened a couple other times also. today was the 1st time that it really did not want to go back up. the vehicle was stopped in a parking lot at that time.
The check stabilitrak light keeps coming on causing the check engine light to come on causing envoy to loose power. while driving. second issue is the drivers door started acting up didn't want to go up and now will not do anything causing the entire system to not lock and work the mirrors or anything electrical from the door panel.
Driver's door master power window switch module was working intermittently and now is inoperable causing me to become locked out of my vehicle. there was a similar recall to the same year envoys in 2014, but when i checked the vin mine was not included in the recall, but am having the same issue

Headlights continue to go out while driving city streets and highway. windows hesitate to go up and make a grinding noise. at times smells like smoke and then dissipates.
Both headlights abruptly stopped working. low-beam headlamps and daytime running lights did not function. while researching possible causes and solutions, i discovered a gm safety recall (no. 14291) which precisely described the problem. upon presenting the vehicle for repairs, the servicing dealer indicated the recall did not cover my vehicle. given no other viable options, i approved the repair, the cost of which was $278. i contend that my vehicle should have been covered under said recall and am asking nhtsa to review this matter.
When vehicle is stationary, or in motion, the fuel gauge gives inaccurate gas reading. fuel gauge modulates from empty to full continuously. empty light comes on when gas is in car when driving. check engine light comes on when empty light comes on. it is impossible to drive this car with a peace of mind given this problem. please note that this exact problem with 2007 envoy is all over the internet. *tr
