I HAVE A 2007 GMC ENVOY SLT WITH 49,000 MILES, STILL OWE $6000 AND FUEL GAUGE READS CONSTANT EMPTY. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT TO CHANGE A FUEL LEVEL SENSOR, THAT THE GAS TANK WOULD HAVE TO BE DROPPED AND SENSOR REPLACED @ $91.00 PER HOUR PLUS PARTS.

I LOOKED ONLINE AND THERE ARE OTHER OWNERS MENTIONING SIMILAR PROBLEMS WITH ENVOYS AND TRAILBLAZERS OVER THE YEARS.
