KEEPS FALLING OFF. have taken to dealership SEVERAL TIMES! Now they are saying that I need to contact my auto insurance provider to put in claims.

I purchased my envoy from a used car lot with no warning lights and no apparent safety concerns about 2 yrs ago other then what appeared to be a replaced front bumper cover and the vehicle was repainted the same color white, since then the brakes have intermittently not disengaged on one side or the other I believe it's the front brakes and seems to be worse after a longer drives and after bleeding the system the pedal would be firm and next day spongy feeling and going down rather far. Air bags did not deploy apon impact. It is available for inspiration although I am attempting to repair it after my accident the brakes are still as they were. I have tried both on as well as performance pads and rotors booster check valve and fluid replacement with no change. I was coming back from my daughter's dentist appointment it is 20 minutes away the roads were very slick with snow and sleet, I got off the hwy and coming through town I braked to slow from 45 to 35mph before crossing the intersection when I let off the brake the left side stayed engaged enough to cause the vehicle to pull to the left and I couldn't steer straight because of the snow and was forced to hit 2 traffic light posts in the center median. Usually on dry roads I can tap the pedal and keep it straight until the brakes released. I first noticed it changing pads when I 1st purchased it that the front tires spin harder while jaked up and when it continued I figured it was alignment or steering components worn but even after parts replaced a 2 alignments nothing changed, after my last alignment the technician said the brakes need to be bled and I told him the issue he was unsure the cause. I did not have any air bags deploy in this accident and the sensors were clearly effected as the bumper caved in the center. The vehicle also has had uneven ride height due to independent sensors in the rear. The vehicle now has a service airbag and service brakes light. Other owners have similar issues with their envoys

WHILE PROCEEDING TO TAKE A LEFT TURN AFTER COMING TO A STOP AT A T INTERSECTION BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAGS DEPLOYED ON THEIR OWN. THIS SCARED MY WIFE TO DEATH! IT CAUSED HER TO BUMP THE CURB WITH ONE IF THE TIRES ONLY, NO ACCIDENT. THANKFULLY SHE WAS OFF WORK AND THE KIDS WERE ALREADY AT SCHOOL AND NOT WITH HER AT THE TIME! I CALLED GM IMMEDIATELY AND REPORTED THIS. AN INVESTIGATION WAS CONDUCTED AND LASTED ABOUT 2 MONTHS. I WAS INFORMED THAT THE FINDINGS WERE CONFIDENTIAL AND THAT THEY WOULD NOT BE REPAIRING MY VEHICLE! YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME. MY WIFE SUFFERED A MINOR HEAD INJURY, SCARE OF HER LIFE NOT TO MENTION WE WERE NOT PROVIDED WITH A RENTAL, COMMUNICATIONS WERE POOR AT BEST WITH OUR CAR WORKER AT GM. SHE WAS EVEN OUT SICK FOR A WEEK, IT TOOK ME 4 DAYS FOR SOMEONE TO FINALLY TELL ME THAT. THE ENVOY IS A 2005 AND WAS BOUGHT NEW AND HAS BEEN WITH OUR FAMILY EVER SINCE. LOW MILEAGE JUST TURNING 100K. VERY WELL CARED FOR. I AM FLOORED THAT GM IS NOT REPAIRING OUR BABY! I HAVE SEEN MANY REPORTS OF THE SAME ONLINE. I TRULY FEEL GM IS DECEIVING THE PUBLIC TO A BIGGER PROBLEM. HENCE THE REASON THEY STATED THE FINDINGS ARE CONFIDENTIAL. I JUST WANTED OUR BABY REPAIRED.

MY VEHICLE WHEN PURCHASED WAS ALTERED FROM CLOTH SEATS TO LEATHER BY THE DEALERSHIP WHERE PURCHASED. 3 DAYS AGO MY CAR IS SIGNALING ME TO SERVICE AIRBAG WHILE DRIVING THE CAR OR IN IDLE. SO I IMMEDIATELY TOOK IT TO A CERTIFIED MECHANIC AT MEINEKE AND WAS TOLD THAT THIS IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT AND THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS ON MY YEAR, MAKE & MODEL SUV. I CALLED GM ON 11/29/2019 AND WAS TOLD BY A SUPERVISOR NAMED ANGEL THERE HAS BEEN NO RECALLS BY THEIR MANUFACTURER AND THERE IS NOTHING MORE SHE CAN DO ABOUT THE MATTER. I CANNOT DRIVE MY CAR LIKE THIS KNOWING THIS CAN BE POTENTIALLY HARMFUL AND HAZARDOUS.

MY LIFE HAS COMPLETELY CHANGED AND I'M LOSING MY FAMILY BC OF A ACCIDENT

TAKATA RECALL, EARLY MORNING, MY POWER STEERING STOPPED WORKING, SO I FILLED IT AND IT STARTED WORKING AGAIN, AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN A BUSY ROAD TURNING ONTO MY OWN STREET, THE POWER STEERING AND BRAKES FAILED RESULTING IN ME CRASHING INTO A POLE, AND THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AND THE SEATBELT DID NOT LOCK, SO I FLEW INTO THE STEERING WHEEL, BREAKING MY HAND. THE DAMAGE WAS SO SEVERE IT WAS CONSIDERED TOTALED.
