2002 GMC Envoy has an ses illumination accompanied by a fuel odor, and/or a few drops of fuel on the ground when refueling the vehicle. This is caused by a fracture of a weld on the fuel tank inlet check valve (icv). The icv is located above the full fuel level. A fracture in this area may allow fuel vapors to pass through and allow droplets of fuel to accumulate on the side of the fuel tank as it passes over the fracture during refueling.
Fuel tank has leak at joint where filler pipe and tank join allowing fuel and vapors to escape. Smelled fuel inside the garage. The dealer service manager said that the weld had failed, that it is a manufacturing defect, and that they had replaced the fuel tank for 2 other Envoy for the same failure. There was no prior repair on the fuel tank or removal of the fuel tank.
