Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problems of the 2004 GMC Envoy - part 1

While driving on the street on my way home from work , I could smell gas. . . Got out and saw a visible leak coming from the gas tank. . I proceeded to look this problem up, and found out this is a reoccurring problem with this vehicle .

Had another gas tank put in after 3 breaking and leaking gas. Now it cuts in and out going down the road.

The gas tank keeps cracking causing gas to leak out. It has been in the shop twice for this and car hop only wants to continue to put a used tank on it. The shop requested a new tank be purchased and they denied to request. The first time it was in the shop they wen though three tanks then it only lasted about a month.

Leaks fuel. Common problem from what I am reading online. Was told by service tech that fuel tank needs to be replaced. Plastic tank is broken where fill hose connects to the tank inlet check valve.

Recently, when the a/c or heater is turned on, the smell of fuel comes thru the air vents. It is a strong odor which last for a few minutes to sometimes longer. I have to put the windows down in order to not get dizzy or get a headache. The vehicle be in motion or still for this to happen. Mileage is around 95,000. I've heard it's a cracked fuel line or fuel tank and read many complaints about the same; therefore, why no recall?.

My 2004 GMC Envoy xl slt is leaking gas at the gas tank and the filler hose gas just runs down the tank to the ground its a fire risk.

I was doing a rear brake job and smelled gasoline, so I went under the vehicle and observed there was a wet spot on the rear of the fuel tank. Upon closer examination I found the inlet part of the fuel tank was broken and allowing fuel to exit the tank, can we say fire risk, so I went online to try to purchase a replacement tank and I found where several people had had this sameproblem, but no recall is in place ?????.

Received a letter in November of 2015 informing me that my car (included my specific VIN number, not just make, model and year) is part of an extended 15 year/150,000 mile gm special coverage program, 14423. During the last two years, my service engine light went on and off regularly, and I had almost $5,000 of emissions work done to my car which at 12 plus years only has 73,000 plus miles on it. Back in 2012,I was unable to pass inspection on my car because my service engine light was on (02/2012) and brought my car to my mechanic. Something under my car melted (said in service receipt) and cost me $343. 00 to repair. A week later, the service engine light was on again and I took my car to kerbecks GMC in atlantic city, NJ. Service manager said my car was no longer covered, but I called gm and they said otherwise. Brought car back to dealer and after long argument, it was supposedly repaired. Receipt doesn't state cause or work done. Now I brought car back to kerbeck as the smell of gas in my car is pungent. They said my car had a crack in my fuel tank, covered under 14423 and said gm would not allow me to drive it as a fire could occur. Erbeck gave me a loaner for two weeks on 12/31/20015. Part is on backorder. Gm took my car away from me on 1/16/2016 and said they wouldn't provide me with a loaner anymore. I have been without a car since the 14th of January, live alone, and have no means of getting around. I can't afford a rental. Opened case with gm, case # 8-1759699353 with a woman named carmen who said it would take over a month at best to get the backordered part in. I need a loaner and a way to get around. The service manager bob informed me that my car was too dangerous to drive and so did gm. Why did they take my loaner away leaving me stranded alone at 62 years old. Please help me.

Fuel tank. At least three years ago, I received a recall form gm because of the fuel filler tube/fuel tank was compromised and I was being recalled for a fun tank replacement. Went to my GMC dealer (nalley of brunswick GA) who told me that fuel tanks were on national backdoor even though they had the filler tube parts, would notify me when the tanks available. I faithfully revistedthem every 6 months to be told same story, still no fuel tanks. I believe now they are hoping I just go away. In the mean time I still cannot fill up the tank without having gas fumes emanating from under the car.

Filler neck on gas tank has fractured causing gas vapors and possibly gas to escape the tank. I have been driving the vehicle with this condition present but have just received a notice from GMC indicating that they are aware of the problem but my vehicle is outside of the window they will cover for repairs.

GMC has refused to repair/replace a faulty fuel tank. Instead GMC has asked that I pay for the repair $1567. 00. Apparently, several GMC Envoy owners have complained about cracks in the fuel tank. GMC has determined unless the crack occurred within 36,000 miles of purchasing the car, it is the owners responsibility to fix the vehicle. My vehicle has been ruled unsafe to drive by a GMC technician. My children are riding in a vehicle that was faulty from the date of purchase. I am so disappointed in GMC.

Check engine light came on, took my truck to the mechanic to have it checked and testing showd codes of fuel evap leak. I had to get this fixed as I was due to get my registration renewed. Got the vehicle back went for emmisions test and the"check engine light" popped up again just as emmission test was being done!!!. I could not believe it! so not only did I incur cost of mechanic but the vehicle failed the emissions test. The tech at the emissions center said the codes showed "fuel evap leak" detected. , while driving home from the emmisions test I smelled a strong gas odor, pulled into my garage and looked under the vehicle and it was not leaking however my whole garage stunck of gas. My garage is attached to my house, let the dog out and the dog even sneazed!. . . . Being a weekend and my only way of transporation I drove the car as little as possible. Monday took the car back to the shop and the tech noticed the strong odor , later the technician called me to tell me that the lines to fuel tank and the fuel tank needed to be replaced as they were leaking but only when the vehicle was mobile!!!!!. He also told me that the vehicle was a fire hazzard and I could not drive the vehicle. Now what! I had to get this fixed as I need the vehicle to get to work. The additional cost was $960 not to mention the extention I had to pay the dmv to extend my renewl registration. Had the vehicle back a week now, no more gas smell but lord and behold the "check engine light" just popped up again! this vehicle only has 103k and very well taken care of. . The mechanic says the code is still reading "fuel evap leak" . Somebody please help. !!!!!!! it seems as tho I am not the only Envoy owner with this problem!!!!!! I loved this vehicle but totally discusted and disapointed in GMC.

Special coverage adjustment fuel tank inlet check valve fracture #07099a. Issued August 24, 2007. My 2004 GMC Envoy is now experiencing this problem. I was never notified of this as gm claims they did not know I was the owner of this car. I bought it used in 2005. I was told by a mechanic when I took it in to check out the problem that I should not fill the gas tank full as it could cause gas leakage. I am also facing an expensive bill to get this fixed. A recall was never issued and it appears this is a life safety issue. I would appreciate your attention in this matter.

The gas tank has a lose connector that leaks and allows fumes to escape.

Went to replace head light bulb to find out that I had to replace the wiring do to it was melted. The filler neck on the fuel tank is cracked, causing an evap leak in witch I found out through a garage and 5 diff. Salvage yards. And last, 6 diff. Times will driving I lost power will driving. I had to turn the ignition off, wait about 3 sec. Before it would start and go. The first time was in the middle of an intersection and the rest happened while on a regular road. I explained to my wife what to do if this happens to her and it did once, the others while I was driving.

The fuel tank neck where the fuel goes into the vehicle then down to the gas tank is cracked which is causing a gas leak & vapors.

2004 GMC Envoy, well maintained at 158,000 miles began to emit an odor of gasoline. At first it was only slightly noticeable, but overtime it's become very noticeable. Interior and exterior of the car smells like gasoline. No gasoline is leaked, only fumes are emitted. Took it to a local repair shop and they state that there is a crack on the inlet of the fuel tank. Repair shop stated my model is not covered by the recall issued for Envoy xl of the same year, but stated it is exactly the same issue and that I should file a complaint here. Estimate cost of repair $1000+.

I have a 2004 GMC Envoy 4. 2 that has been smelling of gas for a couple of years. My service light comes on. There is a crack in my fuel tank and gas literally leaks out of the tank and runs onto the ground, if I fill my tank up all the way. Originally, the recall didn't include 2004's, but now it says: "the expanded policy covers my 2002-2004 trailblazer ext, GMC Envoy xl, and GMC Envoy xuv vehicles". How do I go about getting this fuel tank replaced for free under the recall? I did not receive a recall letter in the mail, and when I put my VIN# in the search, it says there are no open recalls, but my vehicle obviously falls into the expanded recall policy. My vehichle info: VIN: 1gket16sx46102506 year: 2004 make: GMC model: Envoy xl 370 NHTSA action number : pe07014nhtsa recall campaign number : n/a.

When in traffic traveling across states on highway at 55-65 mph left lane(scary) I ran out of gas when the gauge showed 1/4 of a tank now when tank is full it read 1/2 and at times the gauge floats around full to empty when driving some time it reads empty when I put 10 gallons in was told a bad fuel sender in tank I read other reports that g m recall will only pay half the cost to repair??.

Check engine light diagnosed as dtc code p0442 (evap leak). Smoke test revealed crack in fuel tank assembly where filler neck hose meets the fuel tank. GMC issued a bulletin no. : 05-06-04-014a on March 21, 2005 regarding the above referenced dtc code and its possible connection to a fracture in the fuel tank, but has not issued a recall or other remedy for this defect. Vehicle is unsafe due to fuel tank fracture. In addition, vehicle cannot be registered because it cannot pass smog test with check engine light on. Cost for repair is $1,300-$1,500.

There is a strong gasoline smell inside and outside the vehicle. The check engine light is on and the code is indicating some type of vapor/emissions problem. I took the vehicle to 2 different mechanics and they both found that the fuel tank filler area has a vapor and liquid leak. There is a TSB issued by GMC that covers this situation but they will only honor it on vehicles prior to 2004.
