Engine, check gadges light appears, SUV stalls, radio lights and steering lights keeps failing. I have taken my 04 envoyxl into the dealership over 7 times for the same problem in which they have not yet been able to fix/resolve. My envoyxl check engine and check gadges lights keep popping on and the vehicle continues to cut off/stall the dealership has not yet fixed the problem, I have taken the SUV in over 6 times for this problem. From 2004 until now 2007 the problem continues. The lights on the dash board keeps going out. They have replaced the lights at least 2 or 3 times but they keep going out. These lights are on the radio part, the buttons which operate the radio and switches the station. The panels seems to get very hot. The lights are currently out now after being replaced 3 times and now the vehicle is out of warranty. The paint on the SUV is very dull and the leather on the 2nd row seat is cracking, completely worn and very cheap. I complained to the dealership 1 year after I purchased the vehicle that the leather is worn out too fast, nothing was done about the 2nd row leather seats. The paint on the exterior is dull and spotty, I complained to the dealership before the 36,000 mile warranty expired and nothing was done about the paint either. This SUV is a lemon, it continues to cut off although many attempts has been made to repair the problem, I think they should buy this vehicle back since it can't be fixed. There is a defect in the electrical system since these lights on the instrument panel continues to wear out very fast and the radio had to be replaced already but the lights continues to blow out on the instrument panel and the steering wheel which also controls the radio and other components.

While driving down the highway, my gmc envoy xl shuddered then stalled. The ses light and reduced power light came on causing an extreme safety hazard as we were on a highway (speed limit 65 MPH). The dealer, regal automotive in lakeland stated that the computer that controls the drive train lost contact with the vehicle. They informed us that this is a common problem with the envoy and that they have a service bulletin for a program update. However, no recall have been issued.

My 2004 gmc envoy xuv (v6) has an engine problem. It has stalled on 3 occassions. We told the dealer service department about the incident and they did a diagnostic test on it. They said the computer on the envoy didn't have a record of the incident. On the 1st incident it happened when pulling out of a parking spot. The 2nd time was after reversing out of a driveway and then driving forward out of the driveway. The 3rd time was attempting to drive forward after waiting for the garage door to open.
