BELOW IS COPY OF LETTER GIVEN TO GM DEALERSHIP FOLLOWING THE ENGINE FAILURE AT HIGH SPEED: 10/05/2001 TO : BOB ROSS SERVICE DEPARTMENT 2002 GMC ENVOY 3,240 MILES PROBLEM: ON SUNDAY OCTOBER 4TH, MY WIFE WAS DRIVING ON 675 TO FAIRFIELD MALL FROM OUR HOME AT 6:10 PM IN THE EVENING. SHE HAD TRAVELED ABOUT 8 MILES AND WAS GOING 65 MPH IN THE MIDDLE LANE WHEN THE ENVOY SUDDENLY LURCHED AND THEN QUICKLY SLOWED WITH TOTAL LOSS OF ENGINE POWER. THE HEADLIGHTS (IT WAS DARK) WERE STILL ON AND THE CHECK ABS LIGHT CAME ON AS SHE COASTED TO THE BERM IN MODERATE TRAFFIC. AT THAT POINT THE CAR WOULD TURN OVER (BATTERY OK) WITH THE KEY BUT WOULD NOT FIRE. SHE CALLED ON-STAR AND THEY SAID IT WOULD HAVE TO BE TOWED AND CALLED DISPATCH (CASE 00244572). SHE ALSO CALLED ME SO THAT I COULD PICK HER UP. WHEN I GOT TO THE CAR, APPROXIMATELY 6:15, I TURNED OVER THE ENGINE AND IT FIRED. THE CHECK ABS LAMP WAS STILL ON. I WAITED FOR THE TOW TRUCK AND HE FOLLOWED ME TO THE BOB ROSS DEALERSHIP. AS I STARTED TO DRIVE, THE ABS LAMP WENT OUT, BUT THE CHECK ENGINE SOON LAMP CAME ON AND STAYED ON THE ENTIRE DRIVE TO THE DEALERSHIP (ABOUT 8 MILES) WHERE IT WAS PARKED AT 6:50 PM SUNDAY NIGHT. DURING THE DRIVE, IT WAS OBVIOUS THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT OF ONE OF THE LOWER RANGE GEARS (NOT SURE WHICH ONE) AND IT APPEARS THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING IN ''LIMP HOME MODE''. IT WOULD APPEAR SOME COMPUTER GLITCH HAS OCCURRED WHICH IS CRITICAL TO THE ENTIRE ENGINE CONTROL PROGRAM. I AM VERY CONCERNED IN THAT THIS VEHICLE ONLY HAS 3240 MILES AND THE TOTAL AND SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER IN MODERATE TRAFFIC AND DARKNESS COULD HAVE PLACED MY WIFE IN A PRECARIOUS POSITION AS SHE TRIED TO MOVE TO THE BERM WITH NO POWER ASSIST (STEERING OR BRAKES) AVAILABLE. PLEASE CHECK THE VEHICLE OUT CAREFULLY TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THIS UNACCEPTABLE FAILURE. JOHN PERKINS

BOTH OUTSIDE MIRRORS EMIT AN IRRATATING HIGH-PITCHED WHISTLE WHEN EXCEEDING 45 MPH. DEALER SAYS THERE IS NO REMEDY AT THIS TIME.

OUR 2002 GMC ENVOY WAS PLAGUED WITH REPEATED ELECTRICAL TYPE PROBLEMS NEARLY FROM THE BEGINNING OF OWNERSHIP IN JULY 2001. THESE PROBLEMS INCLUDE LOCKING US OUT WHILE RUNNING, MIRRORS NOT HOLDING PROGRAMMING, CD PLAYER CHANGING TRACKS DURING PLAY, DRIVER SEAT MOVING FORWARD AND CD PLAYER COMING ON WHEN VEHICLE WAS OFF AND NO KEY IN IGNITION, CD PLAYER THAT WAS ON SHUT ITSELF OFF AND THE DRIVER DOOR UNLOCKED DURING DRIVING, "EASY OUT" FEATURE OF THE DRIVER'S SEAT MOVED IT FORWARD INSTEAD OF REARWARD AS PROGRAMMED, FAN AND TEMP. SETTINGS CHANGING, DASHBOARD GAUGES NOT WORKING OR ILLUMINATING WHILE DRIVING. WE MADE REPEATED TRIPS TO A GMC DEALER WITHOUT REPAIR BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEMS. AFTER 17 MONTHS OF OWNERSHIP WE WERE NOT HAPPY AND FRUSTRATED TO HAVE AN EXPENSIVE VEHICLE WITH SO MANY PROBLEMS SO EARLY ON. OUR ONLY RECOURSE WAS TO USE THE ARBITRATION PROCESS WITH THE BBB AUTO LINE AND OUR STATE'S LEMON LAW. THE ARBITRATOR'S DECISION REQUIRED GMC TO BUY THIS VEHICLE BACK. WE ARE VERY DISSAPOINTED GMC DID NOT STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT AND CONCERNED THAT THIS VEHICLE WILL BE RE-SOLD AS IS.

VEHICLE WILL NOT ACCELERATE OR SHIFT PROPERLY WHEN DRIVING WITH FAULT. FAN CLUTCH REPLACED, COMPUTER PROGRAMMING CHANGED WITH NO SUCCESS OF FIXING PROBLEM. GMC REFUSES TO BUY BACK VEHICLE. DEALERSHIP INDICATES THIS PROBLEM IS OCCURRING ON ALL 2002 GMC ENVOY'S AT VARYING LEVELS MINE BEING WORSE CASE. VEHICLE IS UNSAFE FOR USE IN ANY TRAFFIC SITUATION AS THE PROBLEM MANIFEST ITSELF RAPIDLY WITH SEVERE LOSS OF ENGINE POWER, LOUD NOISES FROM ENGINE AND POOR SHIFTING AND ACCELERATION.*AK

APPEARS THAT VEHICLE MANUFACTURER HAS OPTED TO NOT INSTALL ALL REAR SEAT BOTTOM LATCHES ON THE REAR PASSENGER SEATING. THIS IS BEING REPORTED BY SEVERAL VEHICLE OWNERS OF THE 2002 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER/GMC ENVOY LINE. IN THE EVENT OF A COLLISION, HAVING ONLY ONE LATCH ON THE LARGER SPLIT SEAT MAY CAUSE THE THE SEAT TO BE JARRED LOOSE WHICH IN TURN COULD POTENTIALLY RESULT IN PASSENGER INJURY. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW HOW MANY OTHER OWNERS HAVE REPORTED THIS, AND IF THERE'S PLANS BY GM TO CORRECT THIS SITUATION.

AUTOMATIC MIRRORS WILL NOT MAINTAIN POSITION/MOVE ON THEIR OWN. *AK

PASSENGERS SIDE FRONT AND REAR RESTRAINTS LOCK INADVERTENTLY, DEALER HAS REPAIRED RESTRAINTS TWICE. MANUFACTURER HAS BEEN NOTIFIED.*AK THE DEALER ADDED 6 INCH EXTENSIONS TO THE FRONT AND REAR BELTS, SINCE THEN THE FRONT BELT HAS LOCKED UP TWICE FOR NO REASON. *SLC

WHILE WAITING AT A STOP LIGHT FUEL TANK LOST ALL IT'S FUEL DUE TO A HOSE SEPARATING FROM THE TANK.

WHEN THE CAR HAD 4500 MILES, THE ENGINE STOPPED RUNNING WHEN I WAS DRIVING AT 40 MPH -- THERE WERE NO WARNING SIGNS OR OTHER PROBLEMS BEFOREHAND. THE CAR WOULD NOT RESTART IMMEDIATELY - NOTHING HAPPENED WHEN I TURNED THE KEY -- THEN, AFTER 45 MINUTES IT STARTED BUT THE ENGINE WAS VERY NOISY AND POWER TO ACCELERATE WAS VERY POOR. THE DEALER FIXED THE NOISY ENGINE BY RECALIBRATING THE PCM BUT THEY SAID NO FAULT CODES WERE REGISTERED IN THE CAR'S COMPUTER SO THEY CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHY THE CAR STALLED. I ADVISED THEM ABOUT NHTSA RECALL CAMPAIGN # 02V121000 FUEL:FUEL FILTER LINE WHERE THE SYMPTOMS WERE VERY SIMILAR TO MINE. THEY SAID THERE WAS NO GM RECALL AND THERE WAS NO PROBLEM WITH MY FUEL FILTER FITTING. THE STALL OCCURED ON 5/14/02 AND I HAVE DRIVEN 600 MILES SINCE THEN WITHOUT INCIDENT. I CALLED THE GMC # LISTED IN THE RECALL NOTICE ON 5/24/02 AND THEY SAID NO RECALLS APPLIED TO MY CAR (WHICH WAS MFG'D IN 9/01) AND THEY HAD NO KNOWLEDGE OF THE NHTSA RECALL CAMPAIGN # 02V121000. I'M CONCERNED THAT WHATEVER CAUSED MY CAR TO STALL WHILE DRIVING WILL REOCCUR AND IT IS DANGEROUS TRYING TO PULL OVER ACROSS TRAFFIC LANES TO THE SHOULDER WITHOUT ENGINE POWER OR POWER STEERING.*AK

WHEN ATTEMPTING TO FILL THE FUEL TANK, GASOLINE WILL SPILL OUT THE TOP OF THE TANK (NOT THE FILLER HOSE) AND ONTO THE GROUND. RATHER THAN RETURN UP THE HOSE AND INDICATE TO THE PUMP THAT THE TANK IS FULL, THE GASOLINE GOES EVERYWHERE. IF YOU JUST ADD GAS BUT DO NOT FILL THE TANK, THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN.*AK
