2006 GMC Envoy: fuel tank sensor shows fuel then doesn't, bounces back & forth. I drive in the mountains and am now very paranoid that my car will run out of gas and leave me stranded on a mountain highway. . . . Very dangerous. Mechanic says error code is po463. I am so afraid to drive my car alone now. . . So I stop gong down & then back up the hill just in case I can put in more gasoline. My car also has a drivers' side master control window that burned. . . . Could have started a fire. When my mechanic took it apart, he showed me the burned areas,. . . Smells bad.
The left rear door latch assy broke and door could not be closed. Had to replace complete assy at a cost of $191. 79.
I am writing in regard to a full sized family vehicle that I leased in 2006. I leased a 3 row 2006 Envoy denali xl by gm. I already had a 14 year old son and did not think I was able to have more children. However, I happily discovered that my husband and I were expecting in March of 2007. The issue with my vehicle is that it does not have the latch system available in the center of the second row, which is where I believe the carseat is safest. Ironically, my husband has a 2000 GMC extended cab which has the latch system in all three seats of the 1/2 second row. I have contacted the dealership, gm directly, etc. No one has a solution to this issue. My argument is that if in a cash with the current vehicle specs, the side airbags could deploy, thus harming my daughter in the side position. However, I believe this lack of the latch system in the center is an obvious defect that should be corrected. I would appreciate any support you could provide.
