2002 GMC Envoy XL review from North America
"Not a reliable vehicle for such a high price tag"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Air Conditioner went out 3 times within first 3 months of owning vehicle. Was sent a safety recall notice of the windshield wipers not working properly and the opportunity for one to turn on at any time and cause a disturbance. The "automatic" sensor for heavy downpour on the windshield never worked from the beginning. Right at 45,000 miles the electronic ignition went out, left me stranded out of town.
General comments?
This vehicle is very stylish and comfortable. And even drives well. Has a great turning radius for a large vehicle. But, I am extrememly dissapointed in my first GMC SUV experience. There were so many unrelated things that went wrong, I found it very unreliable. I expected more for the money.
