| I have owned my 2005 envoy xl since june of 2006. once, i passed 36,000 miles, i started experience lots of issues with my vehicle. i started hearing a knocking noise in the rear when i would turn on the ac and the steering was off somewhat. i had the steering fixed for around $400 but the knocking was going to cost around the same amount. less then 10,000 miles later, the knocking noise is more persistent and is related to issues with the fuel pump. my gas hand will move to empty when i fill the tank up and will not move forward for days at a time. today, my kids are complaining about the ac not working in the second and third row seats. everytime i turn the corner it seems as if there is another problem with my vehicle. *tr | |||

| Power steering hose ruptured on my wife's 2005 gmc envoy thankfully just as she was entering our driveway. i feel this is a defect in the hose assembly as the vehicle only has 48,000 mi on it and in 40+ years of driving have never had this happen. if this had happened on the roadway i believe it may have caused a serious accident as it resulted in almost total loss of steering control. the dealer was excellent with the repair, but gm was unwilling to acknowledge the defect. i find it strange that the 06 mdl year had power steering hose problems and a recall but this mdl year was not included,as it burst in the exact way described in the recall. i feel this needs investigating as the vehicle was purchased june 2005 and the recall was dated oct 2005. *tr | |||
