We have classified the 51 complaints from 2007 GMC Envoy about ELECTRICAL SYSTEM into the following categories.
Window power module caught fire, shut down engine, stranding us. recall replaced the module but gmc will not address the fact that the high current draw never blew a fuse first to prevent the fire and not shut down the engine. car started up and we started driving when smoke came out of door and engine stopped. calls and e-mails to gmc have not been answered other than the basic recall to replace the module then later added sealer on 2nd recall. no electrical fixes. electrical issue killed my remote engine starter but they refuse to reprogram or replace as it was an after market remote starter that came with the car..their electrical problem killed it, then they should be responsible and replace it.
I had been driving for about ten minutes when the security light on my instrument panel came on. this is the light indicating the passlock system had initiated. my steering wheel locked up so that i could not turn it at all, and the car began decelerating quickly on its own. *tt
The fuel gage stays on empty with the low fuel indicator light illuminated once you fill the vehicle to full and then the check engine light comes on, after several hours the fuel gage will move to the full mark and the check engine light may or may not go out. leaving you unsure with the amount of fuel you have in vehicle. this occurs even after shutting the vehicle off and on.
