Cpsc#i1290600a. 2007 GMC Envoy. Consumer stated the fuel gauge has been sporadically working. The consumer stated after she filled the tank, it would go empty, then back to full. On one occasion, as she was driving on the freeway, the vehicle started to slow down. The gas gauge read full, but apparently, the vehicle was out of gas.
Nearly 2 months ago I noticed the gas gauge in my vehicle going haywire. I will fill the tank, and within a mile or 2, the gauge will drop to e, and the light will come on, bell will sound, etc. It may or may not adjust while driving. This happens constantly, the gauge is showing 1/2 full, then empty, then 1/4 full. At any given time, I have no way of knowing how much fuel is in my tank. I am deathly afraid that I will run out while driving with my children on the interstate. I have researched the problem a little on the internet, and found many, many others with this problem. I firmly believe this should be a recall issue.
The fuel indicator gauges from full to empty within seconds even though the tank has been filled completely. The gage remains on empty with the 'low fuel' indicator warning light on for the length of the trip.
I filled my gas tank up, but when I start my vehicle it reads empty with the low fuel light on. The check engine light has also illuminated as well.
The vehicle shows a service engine light. The gas gauge fluxuates from no fuel to full tank randomly. During a single visit the vehicle shows a low fuel light and then the guage goes up to full and back. This has been happening for 2 months. The service center can not reproduce the problem because the tank is full at dealership. They want to do unrelated service to justify their time. I have paid for the extended warranty.
Car showed half tank of gas but cut off and wouldnt start. After being told it may be gas I put gas in car and it started. I filled my gas tank up 2 days later then cranked up and the car still showed empty with gas light on.
Erratic fuel gauge behavior 2007 GMC Envoy. Gauge works correctly from 1/2 tank to full tank only - immediately drops to empty after going below 1/2 tank. Shows correct level when first being started up - then immediately sinks to empty upon driving.
Fuel gage reads empty but tank full. Fuel tank says there is gas but ran out of gas. . . Tank empty.
I have a 2007 GMC Envoy and the fuel sending unit is malfunctioning. Yesterday I had to walk to a gas station because I ran out of gas even though the gas guage still read a quarter tank. I am not the only one having this problem after doing a search on the internet.
I have a full tank of gas, but gauge shows empty, and never goes above 1/8 of a tank. "low fuel" warning light on constantly.
Tl- the contact owns a 2007 GMC Envoy. The contact stated the fuel gauge does not read properly. The contact stated the gauge will read empty or half full even when the tank has been filled. The contact also stated gauge will read that there is more than a half tank or that it is near full when almost empty. The contact made an appointment to have the vehicle inspected. The failure mileage was unknown, but the current mileage was 50,000. Rl.
Fuel gauge registers empty even after filling tank.
The fuel guage does not work properly. The tank can be full of gas, but the gauge will show that the tank is empty.
Went to fill my gas tank on my 2007 GMC Envoy and topped it off. Went I went into the car the fuel gauge was going up and down and then went to empty and the low fuel message and service engine light came on. I took it in and was told 871. 00 to repair which I didnt have. When I took it in for my inspection this year, my mechanic told me he has replaced so many of these already. I recieved a letter today by GMC that they will pay for half if I take it to a GMC dealer. I dont think this is fair. They can put parts in that will fail then make us come to their dealerships to pay upwards of 100. 00 an hour to repair.
The fuel gauge frequently stops working or gives incorrect readings while driving. Initially this only occured when the fuel tank was above 3/4 full but has since started happening regardles of fuel level in the tank. The gauge no longer provides accurate fuel level readings at any level. Due to the fact that my vehicle is no longer covered by the manufacturers warranty I have not pursued a repair. The repair is very expensive based on the many complaints I've found on the internet regarding this problem.
The gas gauge on my 2007 Envoy has been acting very erratic lately. Each time I fill my gas tank, the gauge remains at empty for maybe a day or so. Eventually it goes from empty to full and back to empty several more times. Sooner or later it will remain in the full position and seems to act normally. I have also noticed my service engine light coming on for a day or two and finally goes out. That seems to happen after I fill my gas tank. Nobody at the dealership seems to be aware of any problems with the fuel gauge in the Envoy. But after reading a few of the complaints to this website, I realize there is a problem that general motors does not want to address.
GMC Envoy fuel gauge goes to empty at approximately a half-full tank. It happens every time it falls to a half tank. I have to reset the odometer, so I know when I am truly getting near empty. This started around the beginning of August. I've called gm & they want me to pay $100 to diagnose the problem when googling the problem there are many Envoys & trailblazer posts with the same issue. I have an appointment for diagnosis.
Faulty fuel gauge. Gauge will go to full then back to empty and stay at empty just after filling tank. Sometimes will go back over to full. Problem also causing obd to turn on check engine light. I have run out of fuel and have had vehicle come to stop in traffic. No warning of low fuel because of bad sensor. As per gm tech I spoke to, every GMC SUV has the same problem.
The contact owns a 2007 GMC Envoy. After filling the fuel tank, the contact noticed fifteen minutes later that the fuel gauge was still on empty. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealership where the contact was informed that the fuel sending unit needed to be replaced. The vehicle had not been repaired at the time of the complaint. The failure mileage was approximately 44,000. The current mileage was approximately 46,000.
After purchasing a supposed "certified pre owned" GMC 2007 Envoy, the gas gauge has gone bad which is causing the check engine light to remain on less than 1 yr after purchase. This problem is causing an automatic failure in NY dmv vehicle yearly inspection. After taking this to a private mechanic and plugging in the obd,he informed me that this has become a major issue. The fuel sending unit has to be replaced. The cost of replacement is outrageous for a vehicle I have owned for less than 1 yr. This has caused me to run out of fuel several times due to not knowing how much fuel is left in the tank. Once was on a major interstate in NY. Please help myself as well as the many other people I have read about on the internet who are forced to make these costly repairs due to gm negligence just to be able to have the vehicle legally on the road. This is a safety issue that could kill someone on a major highway if they were unable to get to a shoulder or off the highway quickly and safely.
I have a 2007 GMC Envoy slt with 49,000 miles, still owe $6000 and fuel gauge reads constant empty. I have been told that to change a fuel level sensor, that the gas tank would have to be dropped and sensor replaced @ $91. 00 per hour plus parts. I feel this to be a safety issue because I travel to alot of unknown locations including high crime areas of baltimore city to complete real estate appraisals. I have actually witness drug deals take place less than 100 feet from my vehicle. If I run out of gas in one of these undesirable locations death is not out of the question, at a minimum there would certainly be robbery and assault. What I don't understand is why after several 100 reports of this same issue why GMC will not help with the expense of repairing this issue or recall the vehicle for this very common expensive issue. Please help!.
Hello, did GMC will do something with the fuel sensor? I have GMC Envoy 2007, and fuel sensor stopped working properly. I contacted the dealer and the representative sad that fuel sensor replacements work will cost you $600. It is not fare. I found that a lot of people have the same problem, and GMC did not responded to that problem at all. One investigation already opens for this fuel sensor problem recently for trailblazer. I was driving on I-95 and my car started to send message 'fuel level is low' and fuel gage show 'empty tank', but I have a full tank of gas! I made an emergency stop on I-95, which creates a back up traffic and not safety driving conditions for other drivers. Right now I driving with that problem and let me tell you, it is nightmare. ¿fuel level low signal disturbing operation of the car, you have to press controls button on steering wheel and always check how many miles you drove already, but if mileage counter will be working or you forget to reset, you can stop immediately on highway and create badly accident.
At 38,000 miles on the my SUV my gauge stoped working, and ran out of gas two times. I'v had to keep an eye on how many mile I drive and fill it up every 250-300 miles. Also I'v noticed that sometimes my brake pedel stalls for a quick second. I love my vehicle but very disappointment in the problem it has in its early years and to find out the there are hunders if not thousands of people that have this same problem and gm wont issue a recall on there vehicls. It is very unsafe to dive not knowing how muck gas you still have in the tank.
Fuel sending unit is defective after 40,000 miles. Tank readings inaccurate. I live in an urban area where it is not safe to be out of fuel and broken down on side of road. Dealer admits this problem is common for gm Envoy/rainer/trailblazer - numerous online forums list this as a defect - yet gm does nothing to rectify the problem. Item is out of warranty and gm won't cover it.
I was so happy to read online that the national highway traffic safety administration is finally checking into the problem with the fuel guages on 2007 GMC Envoys. I started to have a problem just before my Envoy was 3 years old and about to go out of warranty. The first time that I had a problem it stalled when I stopped at a light after exiting I-95. The next day it stalled when I was coming off of I-95. I took it to the dealer and they said that the throttle mechanism needed to be cleaned. Had the service done and it still was stalling. Took it back to the dealer and they kept it for 3 days and said that because they could not find a code there was nothing they could do and it would be too costly for them to investigate further. The car continues to stall out just when my gas tank is getting low (1/4 of a tank or less). It seems to be okay when it is running at a high speed but when I slow down on an exit or come to a stop it stalls. Sometimes the engine will rev and then catch and sometimes it will stall out. Sometimes it just quietly quits --- nothing shows up on the dash - no lights or guages show anything. I have noticed that my miles remaining is usually much lower after it stalls than before. I have filed a complaint with gm and I was made to feel like I was a fool. They insisted that there was nothing wrong and that they had no complaints. The dealer also treated me the same way. I have considered getting rid of the car but I basically like it and work around the problem by not letting the gas tank go below 1/4. I hope that your organization will be able to do something to help. It really is a very dangerous situation and could certainly result in a rear end collision. Plus I paid a lot of money and have a right to expect that when there is something wrong with a GMC product GMC would know how to fix it. .
