Hello, did GMC will do something with the fuel sensor? I have GMC envoy 2007, and fuel sensor stopped working properly. I contacted the dealer and the representative sad that fuel sensor replacements work will cost you $600. It is not fare. I found that a lot of people have the same problem, and GMC did not responded to that problem at all. One investigation already opens for this fuel sensor problem recently for trailblazer.

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 GMC envoy. The contact stated that all the windows opened and closed independently. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the door module needed to be replaced. The vehicle was serviced under NHTSA campaign number: 14v404000 (visibility); however, the failure recurred. In addition, the contact stated that the vehicle stalled without warning and, during inclement weather, the hazard lights failed to turn off.
