This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
I filled the gas tank with gas, and when I was driving, I got this smell of gasoline. And when I got out to check the vehicle, I saw that the inlet check valve (icv) was fractured. And it was leaking gasoline.and 2 or 3 days after I had the check engine light on, with the code P0442.
Noticed strong fuel odor coming from vehicle. Upon diagnosis at third party service provider, was informed of leak at fuel tank. Known issue per GM bulletin 07076, but was informed by GM that vehicle mileage exceeds coverage parameters per GM ref#[xxx]. information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
The contact owns a 2003 GMC Envoy. The contact stated while exiting the vehicle he noticed the smell of fuel being emitted. Upon inspection it was found that fuel was leaking from the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was found that the gas tank had failed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted about the issue. The failure mileage was 133,120 and the current mileage was 133,465. The VIN was not available.
The car starting leaking gas and I was afraid it would start a fire. I found out that the gas tank filler neck was cracked. Replacement cost was $1,220.68. GMC said that this was not a recall item for my car but there were recalls for the same problem for the Envoy XL.
I have a 03 Envoy sxl that smelled like gas, the dealer stated there was a crack in the hose. I had that replaced and now it leaks gas going downhill. As I saw others are having the same issues and most if not all that has SUV's have children. If the same model part was recalled on the trailblazer why not Envoy's? GMC should recall all cars that has the model number to fix the problem before they go up in flames with our children.
