On certain sport utility vehicles, a fuel filter fitting can become disconnected. If this were to occur while attempting to start the engine, a no-start condition would result and fuel would be pumped out the fuel filter onto the ground.

I just had my brakes serviced and my bushings changed, but my abs light still comes on. Also when I go to brake the car starts to shake and I'm going the speed limit.

Charcoal canister and fuel tank. In the engine the spark plugs were changed as well as the coil packs and the fuel injectors. Along with the camshaft sensor. Still getting p0455 and po0014.

While driving the vehicle a strong odor of gas entering the cabin. Fill vehicle up and large amount of gas pours on the ground from under the vehicle. Closer inspection reveals the part that attaches to the gas tank is broken off causing vapors to escape and not providing a seal to contain the smell. While driving on the interstate at normal operating speed vehicle loses oil pressure causing it to drop to 0 and message appears to stop engine. Both incidents are safety hazards and can cause serious life an death incidents if issues are not addressed by the corporation. This occur on interstate 66 in washington, dc. Immediate recall of all vehicles from gmc neeeds to be initiated.

Bulletin no.:14423 Date: november 2015 part number: 15077622 tank, fuel (18.7 Gal.) The icv is located above the full fuel level. A fractured icv could allow fuel vapors to pass through and droplets of fuel to accumulate on the side of the fuel tank as it passes over the fracture during refueling. If the icv fractures, the vehicle's service engine soon (ses) light may illuminate, and you may notice a fuel odor and/or a few drops of fuel on the ground when refueling the vehicle. This has happen to me and...

now my tank needs to be replaced. This is a known issue with gmc envoy regardless of year or how long they are in service. The company needs to be held accountable for poor quality of parts especially when it is a safety concern and hazard with fuel odor coming into the cab of the vehicle and spilling out when going up a hill. Being told to only fill my gas tank up half to three quarters full due to that part being broken is the wrong answer. In motion when I smell gas and then notice it when I fill the vehicle up and it started pouring out.
The transmission started to slip, noticed it starting to have issues getting up to proper speed without slipping and trying to stall, and was told by previous owner whom I'm purchasing it from that there is a possible issue with the transfer case as well, as it engages it's 4 wheel drive without me touching it, tried to service the transmission and put fresh fluid and a new filter in to see if it would help and now it can only go as fast as 40 to 55 before it starts to slip pretty bad. I have a baby on the way due...

in the next couple weeks and with it slipping and dropping speed it can cause me to end up getting hit and I don't want to put mine, my child, or any of my other passengers in danger.
2 Years ago the maintenance required light has been on, when checked by 2-3 mechanics they said it could be the gas cap. That didn't remedy the situation, the light stayed on, then recently the fuel gauge started dropping to empty after a little less than half a tank was used. Then filling the gas tank caused it to overflow if you fill it to full. As of today the car when shifted into reverse, something came loose inside the shifter, now it is stuck in neutral.
While driving on the street on my way home from work , I could smell gas... Got out and saw a visible leak coming from the gas tank.. I proceeded to look this problem up, and found out this is a reoccurring problem with this vehicle .
Steering wheel locks. It cannot be turned to the right as it will cause the entire care to swerve. When reversing the car turns in the opposite direction of where you are turning. I'm backing into traffic and have to manually pull the steering wheel as if there is a power steering issue. Engine light came on day after purchase indicating I need catalyst converter and sensor. No way to predict which way the car will turn. If I hit a bump the car swerves to the right causing me to swerve into next lane. In motion I am constantly swerving into danger.
The initial time (3/14) it occurred, I was out of town with my family, embarrassed to say the least. However, mainly uncomfortable, tired, and frustrated because my 87 years old dad was stranded for hours as well as my 66 years old sister who is recovering from cancer. This problem was a serious problem because of our location. We had gone to get dinner and ice cream after getting ice cream we back in the vehicle for it would not start. I called 911 no police ever showed nor would even stop to assist. After 2 1/2...

hours, we contacted a church member to find out about a mechanic in the area that could possibly come check it out. Another church member came to check it first, by now 3 hours have lapsed and the vehicle starts. After this it has happened on three (3) separate occasions with me (3/19, 3/20, & 3/21) but my mechanic said it happened with him 3 or 4 times while he was driving it to check it out and while it was sitting just running not being driven. I was on the interstate once, once driving, and once parked and it would not start. The times I was by myself once was on the interstate, another was going through an intersection, and once was in a high crime area where I felt very unsafe for my vehicle and myself. My mechanic replaced the crankshaft and camshaft sensors and the problem persists. I had a diagnostic test performed but was told the items listed on the test 'may' be the problem. I have also had a problem with it accelerating while driving as if the gas is not distributing properly. It was as if it was choking up as if there was a clog. A dangerous place to be in traffic or going across a railroad track, which it has occurred several times with me. I actually was almost rear ended on the interstate.
