26 problems related to gasoline fuel system have been reported for the 2007 GMC Envoy. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
General motors issued a special coverage adjustment-fuel level sensor contact wear notice # 10054e to cover 100% of replacing a malfunctioning fuel gauge. My fuel gauge malfunctioned as outlined in the notice and I had my fuel gauge repaired at my own expense. When I learned of the special coverage, I completed the general motors product field acton customer reimbursement request form and sent the required copies of receipts that showed all required information to hendrick GMC via fax on 9/13 and hand delivered the same information on 10/4. I have never received my refund for the repair I paid for out of pocket. I have called and e-mailed the general manager of hendrick GMC; I have called and tried to speak to him. I called the 800 number provided in the notification to file a complaint. I have left messages for a team leader at the customer assistance center and he has not returned my calls nor are they sending me the promised refund. I believe that this special coverage adjustment is just a way for GMC to not to have to issue a recall, and they are picking and choosing who they are refunding. GMC should not be allowed to use such a dishonest ploy to avoid paying to repair a defect.
I received a letter from GMC stating that they had a known issue with the fuel sensor on my vehicle, would pay half to have it repaired. Within two weeks my fuel sensor gauge is floating from full to empty and the check engine light for emission comes on when the float starts. Why must I pay for repairs for something that is obviously defect on the vehicle if all of the other complaint are anything to go by?!.
The vehicle's fuel gauge went to full while driving down the road. It started moving all over the place and now goes to empty upon fill up at the gas station. The more you drive the more fuel it reads. The gauge floats all over the place and vehicle has now ran out of gas twice while driving down the road. Gm was contacted and explained it is a known issue and at first offered no help. Upon talking to several 'managers' they agreed to cover 50% because they know there is a problem. The cost is still over $250 for the repair. Why does the owner have to cover the cost of a known problem part? why is gm not responsible for this?.
The contact owns a 2007 GMC Envoy. The contact stated that the fuel gauge would read inaccurately, causing the fuel sensor to activate. The dealer and the manufacturer were notified of the failure and made an attempt to cover a portion of the repair costs. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 55,000 and the current mileage was 57,000.
In early August 2011, the fuel gauge began reading erratically for no apparent reason. In early September 2011, the problem caused me to run out of gas while driving. Fortunately, it did not pose a danger, but it could lead to being rear-ended--potentially a very dangerous situation! so far, we haven't fixed the problem but will closely monitor the trip odometer for now.
Fuel gauge is erratic. This appears to be a very common problem. Dealer said the fuel level sensor is defective. I have 58,000 miles on my 07 Envoy denali. Safety is a concern now that I do not know how much gas I really have.
The fuel gage stays on empty with the low fuel indicator light illuminated once you fill the vehicle to full and then the check engine light comes on, after several hours the fuel gage will move to the full mark and the check engine light may or may not go out. Leaving you unsure with the amount of fuel you have in vehicle. This occurs even after shutting the vehicle off and on.
The fuel gauge would have different readings while driving. Gm replaced the fuel level gauge at a cost of $400.
I have a 2007 GMC Envoy that the gas gauge shows that there is more gas than actually is. I have ran out of gas a couple of times.
-fuel guage was acting funny, would go from full to empty and not read the correct fuel level. - dealer stated that the guage had gone bad and it was replaced under extended warranty, cost was covered less deductable.
Gasoline gauge is not displaying accurate amount of gasoline.
The contact owns a 2007 GMC Envoy. The contact noticed that the fuel gauge displayed an inaccurate reading and she was unable to determine how much gasoline was in the vehicle. The failure began three weeks ago. The dealer was notified and informed the contact that there were no related recalls. The manufacturer was contacted and agreed to pay for the parts but not the labor. The vehicle was not repaired. The current mileages were 42,000. The failure mileages were 41,600.
Fuel gage fails intermittently, can not tell how much fuel you have left. I try not to let it go much below half full for fear of running out of gas and stalling in trafic.
The fuel gage does not register the correct amount of fuel.
The contact owns a 2007 GMC Envoy. The contact stated that the fuel gauge continued to increase and decrease displaying an inaccurate reading. When gasoline was added to its capacity the fuel gauge displayed that it was empty. The dealer stated the fuel sending unit on the vehicle failed and needed to be replaced. The contact feels that was a safety defect by the manufacturer because the vehicle has so few miles. The failure mileage was 29,000 and the current mileage was 31,000.
2007 GMC Envoy gas gauge quit working so I don't know when or how much gas I have in the car. Then other day I ran out of gas luckily I was close to home.
Fuel gauge reads incorrectly and shows incorrect amount of fuel intermittently. Very distracting and unsafe when you are not sure how much fuel you actually have. This has been a problem for some time, and the dealer has indicated it can't make a repair because general motors doesn't consider this a safety issue. This problem began in October, 2010 and continues because of the cost to make repairs. The dealer indicates a parts cost of $500 plus labor.
GMC seems to have a problem with their fuel system, I contacted them when my gas guage started acting erractily, was told to take it to dealer and pay 100. 00 for diagnosis, I said the problem is all over the internet, she said she wasnt aware. There are too many people having this problem for them to be saying they dont know it. My husband has cancer and he cannot take a chance driving this vehicle because of this problem, the only time you know it has gas in it is when you fill it up! please help us get this resolved, I have a GMC jimmy parked in the driveway that has the exact same problem!.
Fuel gage has been going off and on all year. Now is sits on empty a lot. The bell goes off to remind me it is empty often, when that is not the case. I have to use my odometer to know when to get gas. Very frustrated with GMC on this. Said sensor would cost in excess of $500 to repair. That is absolutely ridiculuous. Then I get this letter indicating that GMC is aware of the problem with the fuel gage in Envoys; and they still want me to pay $250 for half of their problem. Sounds a little one sided to me. Most companies offer to correct their mistakes at their own expense, and certainly not at the expense of the customer. Seems to me that good business practices would be the way to go. Surley to goodness the president of GMC would have the common sense to know that too many unsatisfied customers could potentially result in a signifcant drop of sales. .
Fuel gauge reading is erratic and provides false information. As of 6/1/2011, the gauge bounces back and forth while driving between fuel low and full. Being told entire sending unit requires replacement and parts/labor cost is $750.
Fuel gauge is inaccurate often reads empty when full. When fuel gauge gives false reading engine warning light comes on. Engine performance becomes erratic.
Fuel sending unit failure. Vehicle has only 42,000 miles on it. Many forums list this as a problem, so it is obviously a common defect, yet gm will not address the problem.
The fuel light (gas gauge) reads empty and the indicator light stays on constantly. The dealer says this is a common problem, but it not under recall by GMC, so the fix would be nearly $350. 00. Gm is aware this is a common problem on the 2007 Envoy.
Fuel gauge totally stopped working.
Malfunctioning gas gauge 2007 GMC Envoy car only has 20,000 miles. Has to be a defect. Contacted dealership. Sold car as is no warranty!.
Fuel gauge started not working properly. Initially it would show half full when filling up, then the gauge stopped working completely causing me to be stranded on the interstate. The cost involved to fix it at the dealership was too high so I have chosen to calculate my mileage when I fill up.
