The rear brake lights are out as well as the passenger side fog light. I need to confirm that this is an electrical problem, I have met 2 additional owners of gmc envoys that are experiencing the same problems.

Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 26 of 26, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Tl*the contact owns a 2002 gmc envoy. The brake light in the rear window feels out of position and this occurred often on this year, make, and model vehicle. The manufacturer stated that this was not a major issue. The safety risk was evident when the contact failed to pass inspection due to the broken brake light. The current mileage was 95,000 and the failure mileage was 85,000.
Tl*the contact owns a 2002 gmc envoy. The contact stated that while driving the vehicle it will randomly jump from 2 wheel drive to 4 wheel drive without warning causing the car to become idle and you must turn the car off completely. She took the vehicle into a local mechanic where he replaced the brakes and checked the wheels and stated that there was nothing wrong with the vehicle. She is also experiencing problems with the front passenger seat belt it locks when fastened. She took the car to the dealer and they informed her that it was no longer covered under warranty and any repairs made would be at the owner's expense. The vehicle is also experiencing exterior light failure, both headlights burned out within weeks apart and they were replaced at owner's expense. The failure mileage was 38,000. The current mileage was 86,000 (sc) updated 06/25/08. *cn the consumer also stated when driving past 70 MPH, the vehicle would shake. The windshield wipers were replaced. The consumer stated the motor failed. Updated 06/25/08
Drivers side brake light continues to loosen or burn out. We have replaced multiple times within the last year and within a month the light does not work again. There was a similar recall, 04v527000, on xl models, but gmc states this did not affect my model. The recall should be opened again and be extended to all envoy, as I see many on the road with the left brake/tail light out.
I own a 2002 gmc envoy and brake lights just quit I checked bulbs,fuses and changed brake switch they still do not work.
Dt: the third brake light burned out, a recall was issued on tail light but not on the third brake light although it seemed to be related. The consumer can not pass inspection without it.
Consumer was unable to have the repairs on the brake light recall done since the parts have not been made available to the dealers in the consumer's area.
Recall campaign 04v525000 concerning brake lamp failure. Consumer unable to get the dealer to honor manufactuerer's recall notice due to no part being available. Manufacturer was notified, and informed the consumer that the parts were on national back order.
Reference recall 04087 - I have been trying to get my 2002 envoy gmc recall since december. All I get is the parts are back ordered and to call back. Now I get a notice from gmc that I have not had this completed. To date I have called 3 times with no result. Still back order parts.
While driving 73 MPH with cruise control on headlights will shut off. Consumer was able to restart the vehicle and corrected the problem. Dealership was notified.
The low beam head light on the driver side would go out intermittently while driving at night. The problem was caused by the plug melting and causing the builb to go out. Vehicle was taken to the dealer. The dealer informed consumer that the headlight unit needed to be replaced instead of the plug.
Taillight bulb holder is failing. Have been through three. When a parts man at kelly chevrolet was asked about this, his response was buy them in bulk????? Called gmc customer service. Was told I would have to pay for a diagnosis(file # 1-270417936) I notice alot of envoys on the road with brakelights out. I think it warrants a redesign and recall.
After reading the following article, I check and my rear break light bulb driver side was burned out. Please, move forward with this recall!! I have a 2002 envoy slt that is at 40k miles. Also, my rear driver's side electric window mechanism unexpectedly broke. Some cable inside. The dealer wants to charge $500 to replace the whole assembly. Can you say highway robbery? Like mileage has anything to do with window usage. Http://ap.tbo.com/ap/breaking/mgbhyys0sxd.html.
All these problems come and go, somtimes depending on the outside temperature. Some of it got fixed and came back again. The major problems are that the vehicle shuts down without any warning - no engine no electric nothing-, so its even not possible to call on star! The other thing is that the transmission start to shift gears while driving on a leveled raod at consistant speed. All this items got fixed and come back after a while. Dt
The fog lights need to be turned at night to have traffic coming from the sides see you and for you to see what is in the path of your car.the daler says thay are ok but agres he uses his fog lights on his gm car also.
Power steering rack failed at highway speeds, making it difficult to steer vehicle. Dealer has inspected vehicle and determined that steering rack would need to be replaced.*ak there was a loud noise due to no fluid in the power steering reservoir. Rear differential leaks. Driver side front and rear doors rattle and flew over large bumps. Interior courtesy lights do not come on when passenger side door is open.
