My vehicle was sitting in the drive way and a loud shattering noise was heard from the house and went outside to look at what it was and noticed that my back window of my vehicle was in a million pieces on the ground and all over my vehicle and in my car seats for my children. The blower motor for the front control quite working a week ago and the right back door will not latch.
Front air bag did not deploy,driving in snow slid an hit a tree was driving on a highway.
While opening my tailgate window to unload groceries, the glass exploded and shattered into tiny pieces. Other than a few scratches, I had no injuries despite glass raining down on me. I've read multiple accounts of this happening to other Envoy owners. GMC needs to do something about this before someone is seriously injured!.
I went inside wal-mart for maybe 1/2 hour and when I came out the window was busted out. We thought some punk smashed the window so we called the police. They watched the video of the parking lot and they said that there was no one by the car when it happened. I don't see how it can just "magically" smash into thousands of pieces with no one around but after reading through other complaints I can see that I'm not alone. Of the 202 complaints on here there are 10 (this makes 11) incidences where this has happened and GMC is not recalling them? I just don't understand. It is going to cost me $500. 00 for a brand new window and it is a week and a half before christmas. We tried to find one in the junkyards but they cost almost as much as a new one. I am so frustrated right now.
I have a 2003 GMC Envoy xl and have problems with the ignition switch being lose and not shutting off all the way when the key is out and just the other morning I went to go to work and my car would not start due to the ignition being stuck in the on position after I had parked my car and took the key out, I am now afraid that while I am driving the ignition switch is going to be bumped into the off position and cause me to crash.
Need to know if the recall of the gas tank applies to my Envoy.
I was opening the rear window to retrieve belongings when the window exploded glass fragments all over me as well as the inside and outside the vehicle. Fortunately, no one was hurt. This is very dangerous!.
Right rear door lock is broke will not shut or lock we were at the store and when we went back to the vehicle went to shut the door and the latch will not catch and shut the door.
The key fob, used to unlock the car, will not unlock the driver side door. I can hear a clicking noise like the latch is trying to disengage, but it will not. The remedy for this is to leave the window open in order to press the unlock button inside the car or to wait and continuously press the unlock button the key fob (the latch inside the door will eventually unlock the car).
Following an independence day baseball game and fireworks display, I went to the parking lot to load my family and some personal belongings. I opened the rear hatch and felt a slight baulking on the right side. In the next fraction of a second a shot gun sound went off and the window exploded in my face raining heavy glass into the back of the car and the parking lot. Miraculously, I received only a minor cut across my eyebrow, but a large chunk was cut out of the thumb of my right hand for which I had to go to urgent care and may have to consult with a plastic surgeon as it heals/ scars in order to retain flexibility in my thumb.
Opened up side rear window and fell out luckily I was parked and just getting ready to leave.
I bought the vehicle in March of 2012. The passenger seat belt will not work and I use them for car seats now which places my lil ones at risk since they may not be properly fastened in because this seat belt should function. Also my back hatchback door doesn't latch properly unless I slam it down hard. If I don't gate ajar light comes on and I hear it loose. The latch system has fallen apart due to the slamming. Window part also does this so I don't use it. I can't believe there are no recalls to fix these safety hazards.
The car dies for no reason it has been doing this since the first day I got the car the car also functions like it has hydrolics for a while it will be low to the ground while I'm driving it then out of no where it would raise up I had to get the suspension done when I got it because it was old and also the key gets stuck in the ignition also if I press the unlock button it will turn on the heat this car has been a headache.
Air bag light is on. Can not open rear passenger door from inside all 4 cigerett lights have stopped working. Drivers window sticks going up and down.
