This piece of crap vehicle in which the entire instrument cluster has completely failed starting with the fuel gauge. This failure then LED to the failure of all the gauges minus as of right now the speedometer. The tac works when it wants to. Gmc now has went back and wants to "fix" the sending unit only to the gas tank (gee....thanks for the rush gm considering this is a 2005 vehicle and the year is now 2013...and people have been complaining for darn close to 10 years about them now!! Nice job stepping up!!).....thus correcting the gas gauge ..we hope (which I have been told will probably last for approximately 1 year...if we are lucky....oh joy for us!!!) yea...thanks gm...I now know I will have 3/4 of a tank of gas when my freakin vehicle overheats on the side of the roadway since the rest of the gauges do not work because you people will not back your g.d. Products. Maybe if we are lucky enough it will overheat and melt to the ground and we will be rid of this piece of crap. No wonder everyone is going to foreign cars...why buy these piece of [xxx]. I will never own another gmc as long as I breath air as soon as I am able to either sell, trade or hopefully someone will come and steal it.

The cluster doesn't work or works when it wants to. I have had this problem for 3 to 4 years the speedometer works when it wants to but for the most part it doesn't. The gas gauge always reads empty and the oil pressure reads above 80. They sent me a letter yesterday to say they are now fixing the fuel gauge if you have less then 120,000 miles but I have more then that now if they would have fixed the problem years ago when they knew about it I would have been ok. They still are not fixing the speedometer and I think that is more of a safety issue then the gas gauge.

Fuel gauge sensor 2005 envoy xl denali. 70153 miles. After fueling the vehicle fuel gauge registers empty until about an eighth of a tank has been used then the fuel gauge works just fine. Have to disconnect the positive battery terminal for appx. Ten minutes to get the service engine light to stop illuminating. Occurs everytime I fill the vehicle. It causes an inaccurate fuel reading. Turning in to dealer tomorrow 06-19-2013 for repairs. Code produced p0463.

I filled my tank at a gas station and when leaving the "check engine" light came on and the fuel gauge dropped down to "e" and low fuel light came on. After 10-15 seconds the fuel gauge went all the way to "full". A few minutes later it did the same thing again, and has continued.

We started noticing after a fill up at the gas station the gas gauge still showed empty. The gauge took over an hour of driving to move up to full. In the middle of the week last week the vehicle ran out of gas and stalled. We added half a tank, but the gauge still showed empty the next few times it was driven somewhere. Last weekend I filled up again and the gauge showed empty still with warning indicator on. Again it took over an hour of driving for the gauge to register the tank even 3/4 full.

Air conditioner quit working on level 5, would work on level 1-4, level 5 would keep turning off. Shortly after this within the same day I could smell something burning coming through the air vents. Mechanics noted and showed me that the resistor plugs on the back had burned and melted together, that's what was causing the burning smell. Needed a new resistor, pig tail, and blower. Also my fuel gauge and RPM are broke, have not been working for the past 3 years.

Fuel gauge does not work. I will fill up the tank and turn on the car and it reads low fuel and the indicator light comes on. Then I can be driving and it will jump up to past 1/4 tank then slowly go down to e and read low fuel.

Faulty fuel gauge went out again for the second time. First time it happen the vehicle was under warranty. This time it is not covered. We have taken this truck to the shop twice to work on the dash board instrument cluster.(oil, battery , fuel).

My fuel gauge stopped working in my 2005 envoy at approximately 40,000 miles. The fuel gauge indicates that the car is out of fuel after fill the tank full. I have noticed numerous complaints about this problem and have also received a letter from gm stating that they are aware of the problem and will cover up to 50% of repair as my warrant has expired. The problem with only covering 50% is paying with for my half of the repair. I have been unable to come up with approximately the $200 for the repair therefore unable to have it repaired. I spoke with gm customer service and they informed me that was my option. When I asked why there has not been a recall on the problem they informed me that I should contact the federal safety agency. My concern is that I live in a state with cold weather that requires that car to warm up prior to driving. So I was keeping track of my mileage knowing when I needed to fill up with gas. Although, this will not be accurate in winter and afraid that my spouse (primary driver of this vehicle) will get stranded on the road. I hope if/when this happens it is not during a snow storm where an auto accident will then become likely. When talking to gm along with the fuel sensor I expresses concerns about other issues that I have been having. For example, my license plate light stopped working, changed the bulb and checked the fuses and still does not work; along with heat issues and was informed to take in for diagnosis.
