| Called the dealer they reported that the engine is out of the car and they said that the problem is that two of the Main Bolts broke. Did not give me a solution when that is happening. The guy on the phone said that there will be no "extra" warranty when they but the engine back toghether. Also the guy said that they have to wait for word from chevrolet on how to remove the broken bolts to drill them out or another method. Of course I get a call AFTER the rental agency at the dealer has closed so I have to wait until monday to get a rental. Anyone elses main bolts break? | |
| I'd like to hear from anyone who previously drove the last generation Explorer ('95-'01). Is your Envoy/Trailblazer/Bravada a significant improvement over the Ex? Is there anything about the Ex you liked better than the comparable feature/behavior of the GM SUV? | |
| The Envoy XUV is a 5 passanger vehicle. | |

| When I was a GM service mgr. if we did warranty work, it was covered for the remainder of the normal warranty period or 1 year and 12k which ever was longer. | |

| Just had the shift interlock override recall done, the lever under the console/shift lever that allows you to unlock the shifter manually, has been removed. Also you get an update to the owners manual saying you have the ability to start in 2cnd gear for better bite on slippery surfaces, I wonder if this was always the case and we didn't know or this a later PCM reprogram, but it works!! | |

I had a 95 and 98 Exploder. Now have an '02 Envoy. No comparison. Only thing I can think of that I probably liked better in the Exploders were the seats. GM is light years ahead of Ford. Even the new ones are not impressive. However, it does seem like there is a lot more to go wrong with GM. Coming up on 15K and still no problems. Great truck and still feels like new. |

Mine's always done that. You put it in 2 it starts off in 2nd. Looking at my manual the shift lock release instructions are on one of the same pages as the shift position functions and details. Maybe they replace the page to delete the shift lock release part and add more info about it starting in 2nd? So I guess they don't give you a new way to get it out of park if the power fails? |

| I have a 02 Envoy SLT, build date Oct.01. recenty I told the dealer there is a intermitent noise coming from the front end, sounding like bushing noise when I brake. It also did it while turning once that I could here. I told them it was not a braking noise, def. bushings. They proceded to machine the rotors without my permission. 2 days later the noise is back again. Reported angrily to the dealer not the brakes. Now I am going to have them check to see if they can be machined agained, otherwise they will be replacing them at their expense. Any ideas anybody, and does anyone know the web site to find out TSB's I cannot seen to find it anymore. Much appreciated.......Elliot | |

"The Envoy XUV is a 5 passanger vehicle." And the wheelbase is the same as the XL - 129". |
