04/12/2009 THE SPEEDOMETER JUMPED TO 110 MPH WHILE ONLY DRIVING ABOUT 25 MPH. TURN THE CAR OFF AND IT STAYED AT 110. TURN ON AGAIN AND WHILE DRIVE ABOUT FORTY MPH IT SHOWS 150 ISH. CALL THE DEALER AND REPLACEMENT IS OVER $400 TO REPLACE THE PART (ASSUMING THAT THIS IS THE FIX). EXTENSIVE RESEARCH AND THE AMOUNT OF COMPLAINTS ON THIS SITE, THIS IS A RATHER LARGE PROBLEM THAT HAS EFFECTED A LARGE QUANTITY OF GM OWNERS. THIS SEEMS TO BE A DEFECTIVE PART THAT HAPPENS GENERALLY RIGHT AFTER THE WARRANTY RUNS OUT. GO FIGURE. *TR

I HAVE A 2004 GMC ENVOY THAT THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WENT BAD ON AND THE DEALER WANT $900.00 TO REPAIR. ON THE INTERNET THAT THERE ARE ALOT OF GMC SUV'S WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I, AS WELL, HAVE BEEN FIGHTING WITH GM FOR REPLACEMENT OF THE INSTRUMENT PANEL ON MY 2004 ENVOY. THE CAR HAD 48K MILES ON IT WHEN THE PROBLEM STARTED, BUT IT HAD 56K WHEN IT WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP. IT WAS REQUIRED THAT I HAVE THE PROBLEM OFFICIALLY DIAGNOSED, WHICH COST ME $85. I WAS ASSURED THAT I WOULD GET THAT AMOUNT CREDITED TOWARD THE FIX. SCHEDULED TO GET YET ANOTHER UPDATE CALL FROM GM TOMORROW. SHORTLY AFTER I PAID OUT THE $85 AND SENT THEM MY INFORMATION, I RECEIVED BOTH AN EMAIL AND A PHONE CALL SAYING "SORRY, WE CAN'T OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE". I CALLED THEM RIGHT BACK TO ESCALATE IT FURTHER. I'M PUSHING IT AS FAR AS I CAN. THE REPRESENTATIVE TOLD ME THAT THERE HAVEN'T BEEN ENOUGH COMPLAINTS WITH THE ENVOYS YET, ALTHOUGH SHE ADMITTED THAT THERE HAVE BEEN A LOT, AND BECAUSE OF THIS OBVIOUS PROBLEM, THE CASES WOULD BE HANDLED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AT THIS POINT. WHAT MORE PROOF DO WE NEED? *TR

THE SPEEDOMETER QUIT WORKING CORRECTLY, WHEN I FIRST NOTICED IT MY SPEEDOMETER SAID I WAS GOING 120MPH AND I WAS IN TOWN IN A 35MPH ZONE. I HAD MY GPS DEVICE ON AND IT SHOWED THAT I WAS ACTUALLY GOING 35MPH. AFTER STOPPING AT A STOP LIGHT THE SPEEDOMETER STATED THAT I WAS STILL TRAVELING AT A SPEED OF 75 MPH, AND THAT WAS INCORRECT BECAUSE I WAS SITTING STILL AT THE LIGHT. ALSO, AFTER TURNING OFF THE VEHICLE IT STILL REGISTERED A RATE OF SPEED OF 75 MPH. THERE ARE SOME DAYS THAT THE SPEEDOMETER WORKS FOR A WHILE AND THEN IT GOES CRAZY. ANOTHER EXAMPLE, IT SOMETIMES SHOWS THAT I AM GOING AT A RATE OF SPEED OF 0 MPH AND I KNOW THAT I AM AT LEAST GOING 55 MPH. THIS IS COMPLETELY UNSAFE. UPON CONTACTING THE GM SERVICE CENTER THEY STATED THEY THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER NEEDING REPLACED, BUT IF THAT WOULD BE THE CASE THE OTHER GAUGES WOULD NOT WORK PROPERLY. SO FAR THE ONLY THING THAT IS MESSED UP IS THE SPEEDOMETER. I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO CORRECT THE FAILURE AS THE SERVICE CENTER TOLD ME OVER THE PHONE THAT IT WOULD COST ME AROUND $300.00 OR MORE AND THEY WANT TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE INSTRUMENT PANEL, WHICH IN MY OPINION DOES NOT NEED REPLACED....ONLY THE SPEEDOMETER NEEDS REPLACED/REPAIRED. *TR

ERRATIC SPEEDOMETER OPERATION, WE TOOK IT IN TO IN TO BE CHECKED AND THEY SAID IT NEEDED A NEW CLUSTER, ALSO WHILE IT WAS THERE I HAD THEM CHECK THE 4WD SERVICE LIGHT WHICH CAME ON ERRATICALLY AND THEY SAID IT ALSO NEEDED A NEW MODULE. THIS IS FOR A 2004 GMC ENVOY WITH 64,984 MILES. NO EXTENDED WARRANTY SO WE HAD TO PAY FOR THE ALL THE WORK DONE. THE DAY I HAD IT CHECKED OUT THE SERVICE REP DID SAY THERE WERE PROBLEMS WITH A CERTAIN YEAR AND IF WE HAD THE RIGHT YEAR AND VEHICLE AND IF IT WAS UNDER 70,000 MILES THEY WOULD REPLACE IT FOR FREE. WHEN WE CAME BACK A COUPLE DAYS LATER TO HAVE THE WORK DONE HE SAID AFTER I ASKED HIM IT WAS FOR A SILVERADO NOT SURE IF HE SAID 2003 OR 2004 BUT NOT FOR OUR VEHICLE..... I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED AFTER 40 YEARS OF BUYING GM VEHICLES THAT GM DIDN'T TAKE CARE OR HELP TAKE CARE OF THE COST OF THESE PROBLEMS. *TR

APPROXIMATELY 1 1/2 MONTHS AGO MY SPEEDOMETER WENT OUT ON MY GMC 2004 ENVOY. I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE PERSON HELPING ME SAID THAT THEY GET ALOT OF REPAIR REQUESTS FOR THE SPEEDOMETERS GOING OUT ON THE GMC'S. SO I STATED IF THIS IS AN OFTEN OCCURRENCE IT APPEARS TO ME THAT IT SHOULD BE A NATIONAL RECALL BEING THAT THIS SEEMS TO OCCUR ALOT. WHEN I GOT HOME I WENT ON LINE TO PULL THE REVIEWS AND TO SEE WHAT OTHERS WERE TALKING ABOUT. THAT IS WHEN I NOTICED THAT A I WAS NOT THE ONLY CUSTOMER WITH THIS PROBLEM. ALSO, WHEN I WENT ONTO MY IPHONE APPLICATION TO SEE IF I COULD FIND ANYTHING THAT COULD ASSIST ME BEING THAT I WAS GOING OUT OF TOWN I FOUND AN APPLICATION AND ONE OF THE PEOPLE POSTING A REVIEW WAS A GUY WHO WAS OUT OF TOWN AND HIS SPEEDOMETER WENT OUT AND HE TOO WAS ABLE TO FIND THE SAME SPEEDOMETER THAT I HAD TO USE IN ORDER FOR HIM TO GET BACK TO WHERE HE WAS GOING. AS A CUSTOMER I FEEL THAT IF THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT IS OCCURRING AT THE 35,000-45,000 MARK OF THESE VEHICLES THEN IT SHOULD BE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE MANUFACTURER TO MAKE GOOD ON THIS MALFUNCTION. MY CAR IS NOT QUITE 5 YEARS AND I ONLY HAVE APPROXIMATELY 42,500 MILES ON MY TRUCK. *TR
SPEEDOMETER QUICK WORKING. DEALER DIAGNOSED INSTRUMENT CLUSTER FAILURE. REPAIR ESTIMATE FOR PARTS AND LABOR IN EXCESS OF $600. POTENTIAL LOSS OF ALL GAUGES WHILE DRIVING PRIOR TO REPAIR. *TR
OUR VEHICLE HAS A SPEEDOMETER THAT INTERMITTENTLY READS MANY MPH OVER THE ACTUAL SPEED. THE INTERNET FORUM THAT REFERRED US HERE HAS MANY PEOPLE WITH THE SAME TROUBLE. THE DEALER DOES NOT HAVE OUR MAKE OF VEHICLE ON THE LETTER THAT COVERS THIS ISSUES ON MANY OTHER MAKES. *TR
Official recalls
104V527000 · Exterior Lighting:brake Lights
Nov 1, 2004
ON CERTAIN SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES, VIBRATION AND HEAT MAY CAUSE THE TAIL LAMP/STOP LAMP BULB TO LOOSEN IN ITS SOCKET. IF THIS OCCURS, THE BULB MAY FLICKER AND EVENTUALLY BECOME INOPERATIVE.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: AN INOPERATIVE BRAKE LAMP WILL NOT CONVEY THE DRIVER'S INTENTION OF STOPPING TO DRIVERS IN FOLLOWING VEHICLES, AND AN INOPERATIVE REAR TURN SIGNAL LAMP WILL NOT CONVEY THE DRIVER'S INTENTION TO TURN TO DRIVERS IN FOLLOWING VEHICLES. BOTH OF THESE FAILURES CAN INCREASE THE RISK OF A CRASH.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE TAIL LAMP/STOP LAMP ASSEMBLIES, AND IF NECESSARY, REPLACE THEM. THE RECALL BEGAN ON NOVEMBER 22, 2004. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT CHEVROLET AT 1-800-630-2438, OLDSMOBILE AT 1-800-630-6537, BUICK AT 1-866-608-8080, OR GMC AT 1-866-996-9463.

4RQ17002 · Loss Of Headlights
Opened Apr 24, 2017 · Closed Mar 29, 2021
Status: closed (inferred from source dates) · Exterior Lighting:headlights
The subject vehicles are model year (MY) 2002-2009 Chevrolet Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, 2004-2007 Buick Rainier, 2003-2008 Isuzu Ascender, 2005-2009 Saab 9-7X, 2002-2004 Oldsmobile Bravada, 2003-2006 Chevrolet SSR, 2005-2009 Buick Lacrosse, and 2006-2008 Pontiac Grand Prix. This scope includes the Trailblazer/Envoy variants: 2002-2006 Envoy XL/Trailblazer EXT and 2004-2005 Envoy XUV. The original scope of this investigation was expanded to include all vehicles equipped with the subject Headlight Driver Module (HDM). The focus of the investigation was to determine whether actions performed by General Motors adequately addressed any unreasonable risk to motor vehicle safety in the subject vehicles concerning the headlights and the HDM that controls them.Under normal electrical load and environmental conditions, the HDM can overheat inside the Underhood Electrical Center (UEC). This can cause the module to fail and result in a simultaneous loss of both low beam headlights and both daytime running lights (DRLs), often with no warning or prior detectability to the driver. This failure can be intermittent or permanent. No other exterior lights are affected. High beams, turn signals, brake lights, and reverse lights are still operational.General Motors addressed this issue with 2 recalls (14V755 & 15V519) and a special coverage program (N172091910). In view of the recalls and special coverage program implemented by GM and the vehicle high beams continuing to operate, ODI has tentatively concluded that the actions taken by GM mitigate any unreasonable risk to safety posed by HDM failure in the subject vehicles.Accordingly, the investigation is closed. The closing of this investigation does not constitute a finding by NHTSA that a safety-related defect does not exist. The agency reserves the right to take additional action if warranted by new circumstances.The ODI reports cited above are available for review online at NHTSA.gov under the identification numbers in the attached document.

DURING THE COURSE OF THIS EA INVESTIGATION, ODI OBSERVED THAT THE MAJORITY OF THE COMPLAINTS (88%) AND WARRANTY CLAIMS (94%) WERE REPORTED FOR VEHICLES THAT ARE REGISTERED FOR USE IN THE SALT BELT REGION OF THE US.THIS AREA INCLUDES 20 STATES IN THE NORTHEAST, MID ATLANTIC AND THE MIDWEST REGIONS AND THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA.CONSUMERS IN THE SALT BELT REGION REPORTED TO ODI THAT THEY COULD SMELL FUEL VAPORS IN THEIR VEHICLES WHILE DRIVING.UPON FURTHER EXAMINATION OF THEIR VEHICLES, THEY DISCOVERED THAT FUEL VAPORS WERE COMING OUT OF THE TOP OF THE FUEL TANK. THIS CONDITION IS CAUSED BY CORROSION OF THE RETURN AND SENDER LINES OF THE FUEL PUMP MODULE.WATER AND ROAD SALT COLLECT ON TOP OF THE FUEL PUMP LEADING TO SMALL PINHOLES APPEARING ON THE FUEL LINES.FUEL MAY LEAK AND COLLECT ON TOP OF THE MODULE AND/OR SPILL ONTO THE GROUND.THE DATA EVALUATED UNDER THIS INVESTIGATION REFLECT A RELATIVELY LOW FREQUENCY OF OCCURRENCE THAT LARGELY ARISES IN SALT BELT STATES.GM HAS EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON THE SUBJECT COMPONENT TO TEN YEARS OR 120,000 MILES.FURTHER USE OF AGENCY RESOURCES DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE WARRANTED AT THIS TIME; ACCORDINGLY, THIS INVESTIGATION IS CLOSED.THE CLOSING OF THIS INVESTIGATION DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A FINDING BY NHTSA THAT NO SAFETY-RELATED DEFECT EXISTS.THE AGENCY RESERVES THE RIGHT TO TAKE FURTHER ACTION IF WARRANTED BY THE CIRCUMSTANCES.FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION SELECT DOCUMENT SEARCH.
