| While driving, several indicator lights came on in the instrument panel. (abs, seatbelt, battery primarily) these lights stay on for a while and then go off, one by one. after putting the car in park, the battery life meter dropped to zero. i turned the car off and the car would not re-start. after having it towed to a repair shop, the battery itself tested that it was good. i replaced the battery, anyway, hoping it solved the issues, but the lights on the instrument panel continue to turn on while driving. after a day or so, they turn off and then days later will come on again. i have had this car checked multiple times by two different repair shops and neither could find a solution outside of replacing the instrument panel. after searching the internet, this seems to be a known problem with this car and other gmc models have been recalled for the same problem. why hasn't the envoy been included? it's obviously a problem with this model as well. (although, other than the airbag recall, i have never received notices about any other recalls regarding my vehicle even though it appears there have been other issues). *tr | |||

| I own a 2003 gmc envoy. two years ago the speedometer started sticking. it now does not keep the speed at all. my rpm (when in park) will rev up to 2 or 3rpm, my gas gauge has now started to sometimes not show i have any gas, the check engine light is on almost all the time, my air conditioner will blow out the back vent and barely come out of the front vent when i have it up full blast. and to top it off my back brake lights constantely burn out.. i have read numerous forums where many people are having some of these same issues but no recall. i don't understand that at all. i definitely think these bad instrument panels call for a recall!! this is a safety issue. i eventually had to cut a hole in the plastic over the speedometer and before it quit completely working when we would go on vacation, we would have to pull over on busy highways every 20 minutes or so to set the speedometer back to zero so it wouldn't show me going 120mph. of course i can't even do that now. i'm just amazed i haven't ended up with a ticket for my speed or my running or brake lights. we have taken the envoy in to the shop and they told us we would have to take the car in to a gm dealer. i have to take it back in this week to have air worked on and who knows how much that will cost. i don't believe i should be responsible to pay over $500 for parts and labor in a car that is clearly defective and should be recalled. please help!! | |||

| Tl- the contact owns a 2003 gmc envoy. the contact noticed that the odometer was inoperable and she was unable to determine how fast or slow she was traveling. the dealer advised the contact to bring the vehicle in for service. the vehicle was taken to a private mechanic who was unable to duplicate the failure and advised the contact to take the vehicle to the dealer. the manufacturer was aware of the failure. no repairs were performed. the current and failure mileages were 92,000. bw | |||

| Tl* the contact owns a 2003 gmc envoy. the contact stated that the instrument panel gauges would fail sporadically or provide inaccurate readings including the speedometer and the fuel level gauge. the vehicle was neither inspected nor repaired for the failure. the failure mileage was 105,000 and the current mileage was 110,000. | |||

| Tl- the contact owns a 2003 gmc envoy. the contact stated the gauges on the dashboard are inaccurate and stop working from time to time. this causes the contact not to know how they are traveling and how much gasoline is in the vehicle. the contact had not had the vehicle inspected at the time on the complaint. the failure mileage was 105,000 and the current mileage was 110,000.rl | |||

| Tl-the contact owns a 2003 gmc envoy. the contact stated the speedometer has not worked since the vehicle was purchased, and recently the instrumental panel failed the rpm and all other indicators. the manufacturer was contacted, they will not assist with the repair, because the vehicle was out of warranty and was over the 70,000 miles the manufacturer had offered to assist with the repair. the vehicle was not repaired. the failure mileage was 66,000 and the current mileage was 120,000. li | |||

| My vehicle was making a jet like sound on start up and while driving and eventually the check engine light came on. it also was making a clicking sound from the electronic heating unit. i took it in to a certified gmc dealer and they said the clutch fan needed to be replaced (expensive repair). could not tell where the clicking was coming from at the time (1/6/11 clicking will not stop - ended up being a door actuator). i did some research on these problem and they are very common in these vehicle. i called gmc customer service to make a complaint because at a little over 59000 miles these parts should not have gone bad. i wish gmc would consider a recall on this problem as well as other major things. | |||

| I have a 2003 gmc envoy. at first my rpm needle stared to move up faster then what i was going for about a month. when i shut the engine off it sounded like it was letting out a vacuum noise. now it's been a month and a half and my mph is not working. it seems to be stuck on 80 mps while i'm setting and goes past 120 while i'm driving. also the gas gage is not working right. it doesn't register the right amount of gas that's in the tank. i hope soon there will be a recall on the electrical cluster, because each gage is going out one by one. i hope this would be a vehicle safety hazard since you need to know what speed you are going. thank you | |||

| Hi, i am driving a 2003 gmc envoy. i bought new back in 2003 within the last 2 months the tachometer and speedometer has not been working properly. i called a local dealer they told me no recalls for the 2003 gmc envoy. i checked on- line it seems its a problem with gm suv's and pick-ups .the recall is for other gm models and makes but not the gmc envoy that is not fair to me and others who own the same vehicle model as i do. could you please look into this i have noway knowing how fast i am going it could be a safety hazard. thank you. i hope you can help me and other gm gmc envoy owners. *tr | |||

| I own a 2003 gmc envoy and the speedometer acts erratically, and is never correct. i've researched it and there is not a recall on it, and from other internet users messages on sites, there are a lot of gm vehicles that are having this problem!! i don't personally have the money to get it fixed, that and i don't think it should be my problem to have to pay for it either, gm put a bad part in the vehicles so i think they should have to recall whatever is wrong with the speedometer. thank you for your time. *tr | |||

| Within the last 4 or 5 months, the speedometer on our 2003 envoy will display erratic and incorrect speeds. when the vehicle is first started up the speedometer seems to register correctly. after 20 minutes or more the needle will begin to stick or stutter. within 30 minutes the speedometer will register 90 mph with an actual road speed of 60 to 65 mph. today it eventually pegged the needle at 120 mph+. at a complete stop, with the engine off and key out of the switch, the speedometer registered 60 mph. we are making contact with our local gmc dealer to see what repairs will be involved. based on several internet forum sites and chat boards, this is not an uncommon problem. it also appears that gm has not issued a recall for this problem. they evidently do not see this as a safety problem or potential safety problem. our envoy has less than 67,000 miles on the odometer. *tr | |||

| Motors that run the guages in my 2003 gmc envoy have failed. these control the fuel, amp, temp guages. this is a known issue for the motors and other guage clusters that use them in other gm vehicles are currently recalled for the same issue. i have not corrected the issue and still have the defective parts. *tr | |||
| 01/02/2009 | 60000 | 1 | |
| Noticed periodic instrument cluster failure/accuracy problems. speedometer will sometimes work or work erratically so i have no idea how fast i am going. i researched on the web and found this is very typical for this model. i called my dealership and was told that they will only repair (no cost) the gmc pickups and not my suv model even though they have same problem with the same part. this presents a very dangerous condition regardless of what vehicle this is in. winter driving conditions in mn require diligence in speed and braking, this is a huge and dangerous problem for gmc and they are just ignoring certain models for warranty repair and forcing the consumer to spend $500.00 (est.) to fix there problem! *tr | |||

| Tl*the contact owns a 2003 gmc envoy. the contact noticed that the speedometer in his vehicle would register higher speeds than what was actually being driven. while driving approximately 70 mph with the cruise control activated, the speedometer went all the way past the highest speed indicator after driving for 30 minutes. when the contact parked the vehicle, the speedometer displayed 70 mph. the dealer and manufacturer have not been notified. the vin was unknown. the current mileage was approximately 81,000 and failure mileage was approximately 79,000. | |||

| Malfunctioning of instrument cluster as described by the dealership. speedometer displays inaccurate speed, other readings on panel flip-flop also. advised by the service advisor that this was a noted defect with gmc and they had already started repairing larger gmc's and should get around to mine later in 2008. yesterday, gmc informed me of a special policy issued for the problem, but only for sierras and yukons (7yrs 70,00 miles). gmc told me they were never notified of the problem with the envoy's. i only have 56,000 miles on this car (first owner). now the a/c has gone of by itself twice this month and the preset stations have vanished. *tr | |||

| Tl*the contact owns a 2003 gmc envoy. while driving 30 mph, the speedometer displayed inaccurate readings. the contact could not determine how fast he was traveling. all the gauges on the instrument panel were also malfunctioning. the failures have been repaired. the current mileage was 100,000 and failure mileage was 64,000. | |||
| 09/20/2007 | 100000 | ||
| Tl*the contact owns a 2003 gmc envoy. while driving at any speed, the speedometer would constantly move up and down and display inaccurate speeds. when the vehicle is turned off, the speedometer would stay anywhere between 30-40 mph. the vehicle was previously serviced by the dealer, but it has not recently been diagnosed. the current mileage was 173,607 and failure mileage was 100,000. | |||

| Speedometer does not work anymore. i can be sitting at a stop light and the speedo will be pegged at 120mph. or when driving it wont move at all. sometimes...i'll start the car, and the speed will be sitting at 40 mph. has been happening off and on since november 2007. the dealership & customer assistance (800-462-8782) will not help me. they tell me i have to buy a whole new instrument cluster ($475+) to resolve my problem. this is a very common issue with the full size vehicles (2003 and up). gm has issued special coverage adjustment #07187 ( 9/28/2007) to replace , free of charge, this bad cluster but wont fix the same problem in their smaller suvs. *tr | |||

| Purchased a 2003 envoy xl on 27 dec 02 - since that time it has been to the garage two times - no clamp on one end of the power steering line (luckily it blew off while still in our drive way - god help us if it had let loose at high speed on a crowded highway) second time was for a bad cam sensor. and we haven't made the first payment yet. first cass number from gmc is s1-68773551 - second case number i don't have yet as i just reported it this morning. needless to say that my wife and i have no trust in this car now - what else will go wrong next. | |||

| 2003 gmc envoy with a list of problems **nar**cc the consumer began to hear a knocking and pinging in the engine on cold starts and felt a hesitation when the automatic transmission shifted into gear. after many complaints, it was finally discovered the engine knock was due to shorter pistons in the re-designed engine and the hesitation in the transmission shifting required reprogramming. the consumer was told he would have to live with the engine knock, because it could be more trouble taking the engine apart. on a separate occasion, the engine stalled due to the battery dying. from april 2004 to october 2004 the battery failed several times and had to be re-charged. during that same time the engine light illuminated and each time it happened, the dealer would have to reprogram the engine computer. the radio was not functioning properly which primarily consisted of static. the driver information center control knobs as well as the radio knobs wore out. the front center console was loose. it was discovered that the engine light was coming on because the third stop light that's on the top of the liftgate malfunctioned. there was a short circuit in the stop light. the cooling fan broke, the brakes and the left front head lamp had to be replaced. the rear tail lights, directional and signal lights have been replaced several times. the lug nut broke while a replacement tire was being mounted on the vehicle. the front stabilizer linkage was replaced. the gas tank had to be replaced along with the fuel lines and a seal on the tank due to a leak. the seat belt was designed poorly and the belt cuts into the consumers neck. the drivers side door didn't close properly, the windshield wipers were replaced within the first 2 years. *jb | |||
