I AM SO SICK OF MY 06 GMC ENVOY XL. I TRULY GIVE UP. I HAD THE STABILITRAK AND REDUCED ENGINE LIGHT COME ON MY CAR FOR FIVE MONTHS. I HAVE REPLACED THE STEERING WHEEL SENSOR, THE THROTTLE BODY, AND HAD THE RELEARN THE IDLE THING DONE, TO NO AVAIL. THIS MAKES MY FOURTH TIME GOING TO THE DEALER, BECAUSE I THOUGHT THEY COULD FIX IT. I HAVE ALWAYS BOUGHT GM. IF GOD BLESSES ME WITH ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY TO BUY A CAR, IT WILL NOT BE A GM. IT THROWS MY CAR OFF. I'VE HAD TO PULL OVER AND START THE CAR OVER A THOUSAND TIMES. I'VE SEEN MANY FORUMS ONLINE ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, BUT THERE IS NO RECALL? I'VE EVEN CALLED GM. I STILL HAD TO PAY MONEY. RESETTING THE COMPUTER HAS DONE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. JUST WANTED TO RANT, BECAUSE BESIDES GIVING ME SOME OF MY MONEY BACK (TO THE TUNE OF A GRAND), WHAT CAN I DO?
