| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Gmc envoy suv (4.2) inline 6-cylinder. vehicle has stalled five times intermittently over the past six months. it stalls out when you begin to stop or start to accelerate from a stop or just while idling. luckily it hasn't been when i was trying to pass or merge in traffic. the first time was around 23,000 and the second time 23,500. the next occurrence happened while it was sitting in a parking lot idling and it died after running for 5-8 minutes. i took it to the dealer and they said it was the throttle body that needed cleaning - done. six weeks later and 1500 miles it stalled when i was trying to make a u-turn in st. petersburg and i nearly got rear ended. dealer kept it two days and did nothing since they couldn't duplicate problem and couldn't get anything from the computer. i took it back to the dealer on 7/21 for regular maintenance (oil change, fuel filter change, and a/c repair-bad clutch). the dealer said they had two computer module updates, one to fix stalls. three days later it stalled in jacksonville traffic at a stop light. i have taken it back for a fourth time to the dealer and left for a week. dealer said vehicle idling rough but computer not registering problem so nothing was done, again. i e-mailed gm and i have had no reply in two weeks. i see where a person with a v8 version is having the same problem. this is an accident waiting to happen. *jb |
