If you file a lawsuit please let me know. I have an 05 Envoy and the fuel gauge stopped working about a week ago. I received a letter from GMC stating that there was a recall on it about a year ago and not to take it to the dealer unless you currently had the issue. They are only covering the repair at 50%. It seems to me that if they knew that there was an issue before I did that they should cover it at 100%. I called the dealership and was told the repair would be about $480. That means that I pay $240 out of pocket for their faulty equipment unless it is still under warranty which it is not. How could it be I purchased the car used in 2010 and the warranty expired in 2008. My SUV only has 61,000 miles and yet they refuse to pay. I spoke to GMC customer service and they stated that the issue was only with half of the cars so only half of the costs would be covered which makes no sense. In addition my speedometer is not malfunctioning and according to several sites that I have looked at this is a wide spread issue. There was a recall but not for my model. They need to pay! This could cause accidents and other issues. What would they do if someone stalled out because they didn't know how much fuel were in the car and got into an accident? Or if I am speeding because obviously I don't know how fast I am traveling are they paying for the citations? This is ridiculous. I LOVED my vehicle up until these issues and the way that GMC treats its customers. So basically if you are able to get anywhere with the lawyer please post.

I'm ready also. I own a 2005 Envoy. I've had a gas guage repaired. Now, I'm suffering with the oil senosr issues. I've also had the issue with the fan clutch at about 40,000 miles!

I also have the same problem as you julien61, with my 2005 Envoy XL. I have seen a lot of posts about just call your dealer and they will split the cost with you or it will cost $150 to replace. Called Todd Wenzel GMC and he said $450 just for the fuel sending unit. So I am all about recovering my costs.

I am the original owner of a 2007 Envoy. I think the fuel guage went about 20 months and 50K miles ago. I currently have 145K on it and finally need to have the fuel gauge fixed since I need to pass emissions for a plate renewal. Can't get the check engine light off without fixing the fuel gauge. Maybe more is wrong there too. No help or feedback from the dealer other than pay me, pay me, pay me... Don't recall ever getting a letter about an offer for GM to pay half - not that a cowardly offer like that is sufficient to a major issue. But now even if I had such a letter I understand there were mileage limitations. The tire pressure light goes on and off whenever wet. Plus like others the front speakers work on occassion. Add me to the list of those having "fun".

my fuel gage recently stopped working , my master fuse blew the other day, the tire pressure lights go on and off whenever they want, after reading all these posts i am not looking forward to other things going wrong but it seems like they are unavoidable....great

joevegas7,
 
I'm sorry that the gauges are having some difficulties on your vehicle; have any of these issues been looked into as of yet?
 
Best,
Sarah
