When vehicle is stationary, or in motion, the fuel gauge gives inaccurate gas reading. Fuel gauge modulates from empty to full continuously. Empty light comes on when gas is in car when driving. Check engine light comes on when empty light comes on. It is impossible to drive this car with a peace of mind given this problem. Please note that this exact problem with 2007 envoy is all over the internet.

My fuel gage suddenly stopped working on my 2007 gmc envoy. It read that I had 1/4 tank left, so headed to the gas station on a city street. I turned the envoy off, for about a 15 minute stop, and when I turned it back on, the gage said it was empty. I filled the tank, and it still said it was empty, and the light is on. About 25 miles later, the gage popped up to 1/4 tank , but quickly dropped back down to read as empty again. The light stays on now. All other gauges on the dashboard work properly. The check engine light also came on, and is still on. I made sure my gas cap was on properly, and it was. I just purchased this vehicle on 12-30-15, so I do not know if there were any previous issues . My 2007 envoy had 61,061 miles on it when this occurred, on 3-4-16.

Vehicles fuel gauge will constantly read anywhere from e to full, especially after fill up. Never know exactly what amount of fuel is in vehicle. Have to keep trip meter cleared at each fill up to make an accurate guess at how many miles I have left in the tank. Sometimes the check engine light will also come on at same time as the gauge fluctuates constantly.

I was at a stop light and when I pressed on the gas the vehicle stalled. I had to have a tow truck come and give me gas to get me started. This is ridiculous. Now I have a check engine light on because of the stalling cause gunk to get in certain engine parts. I am extremely upset and do not think it is fair that the driver has to pay for 50%. Gmc should pay for 100%. Period.

I have a 2007 gmc envoy. The fuel gauge reads normal after a fill up and then soon drops to empty. It does not give an accurate reading of fuel in the tank and the low fuel light is usually on. The check engine light is also on. It seems that this is the most common complaint among envoy owners with the federal safety agency (note there are 5 other name plates under which this vehicle was sold). I have called gmc and they claim no knowledge of the problem. They offered to help me contact a dealer, but were unable to reach one. I called the selling dealer on my own. The service adviser seemed to know what I was talking about but was non-committal. The defect started after the warranty period expired due to time, but not mileage. Finally I have always considered this an annoyance but I recently changed my opinion on that. My wife, who drives my kids around, pointed out that if she runs too long without topping off or if unknown to her, her fuel mileage declines she very well could run out of gas and be hit by a vehicle behind her. There would be no warning to her or to the vehicles behind her ie no brake lights to warn that she is stopping. Of course there would also be a loss of steering and brakes. In my mind this is a serious safety concern and it should be investigated. If gm is unwilling to fix the problem and the federal safety agency rules that they should not have to, at a minimum they should be required to notify owners of the need to fix the issue and the safety reasons why.

Went to fill my gas tank on my 2007 gmc envoy and topped it off. Went I went into the car the fuel gauge was going up and down and then went to empty and the low fuel message and service engine light came on. I took it in and was told 871.00 to repair which I didn't have. When I took it in for my inspection this year, my mechanic told me he has replaced so many of these already. I received a letter today by gmc that they will pay for half if I take it to a gmc dealer. I don't think this is fair. They can put parts in that will fail then make us come to their dealerships to pay upwards of 100.00 an hour to repair.
