| Electronic Stability Control problems |
Brake lights stopped working; the light bulbs work, but when you push in the breaks neither back brake lights come on. The only working break light is the middle top one. This is very dangerous.
SUV dies and won't start back until it cools down. I was traveling 55 mph on a five lane highway and the vehicle just died. I had the vehicle towed to the local dealer and it couldn't be diagnosed.
Stalling out in intersection,fuel gage and speed odometer ,air bags defaulting,shacking in front end , when driving. Verry dangerous.
I had trouble with the gauge that shows overheating. I took the car in to put in a thermostat thinking it was the problem,but when I took it in they said that my cluster was bad and the gauges were messed up. I paid $392. 00 for the cluster and $100. 00 for labor. I bought this vehicle used with 119,000 miles on it on 6/20/2011 and on 2/23/2013 I had the cluster replaced with mileage of 132,356. I put on new brakes at this time since the had a habit of grabbing and making me slide and jerk to a stop. The only problem I have now is the the door locks mess up once in awhile but other than that I take my Envoy in every 4000 miles for an oil change and a check up it is now 12/15/2015 and I only have 142,000 miles on it and it is still running ok. I keep checking once a month for recalls on my vehicle sometimes a dome light will come on . But not often. My Envoy has not rust and the interior is in as good as it was when I purchased it from the previous owner which is in excellent condition.
