Disappointed in the Reliablility

We purchased our Envoy XL SLT approximately 2 months ago after much research into 7-passenger SUVs. Although we love the comfort, styling, and features of this vehicle, we have been very disappointed in its reliability. We have had it in for service 4 times in two months. The problems have involved the fuel line and fuel system (2 separate repairs), the solenoid, and the wiper mechanism (replaced wiper module after wipers and windshield wash squirters would not turn off). Needless to say, at this price and with a brand-new vehicle, we have been more than disappointed.

This vehicle is sooooo nice. Just about every feature you can think of is laid out in a consistant, sophisticated manner. I am very tall and the XL has great headroom. With the regular Envoy, my sightline had me looking into the bottom part of the visor. The XL is taller, even with the Sunroof. The back seats are incredibly easy to get things in and out of. The 3rd row has more room that most Standard SUV's 1st row. Very excited to have this loaded XL. Have the Black SLT with moon roof, chrome wheels, and Dealer installed DVD. Pleasantly Surprised that I average about 15mpg. Thought it would be more like 12.

I just bought an Envoy XL with 1SK last week, much to the horror of my import- loving friends and family. So far, I can't find any faults with it. Very powerful engine - accelerates smoothly, handles and drives like a car, with the capacity and towing capability of a true SUV. The only thing better in the Acura MDX is the navigation capability. The Honda Pilot will be similar but lower priced (before greedy dealers start marking up over MSRP). The Toyota Sequoia is a little more spacious but to get it similarly equipped will cost almost $8K more, and you lose about 4 MPG. Other 7-seater SUVs: Ford Explorer and Dodge Durango - their designs seem dated in comparison to the Envoy.

We purchased the Envoy XL with the 1SJ package. The ride in the Envoy XL is incredible. Bumps, train tracks are non existant. I am more than pleased with the comfort of all the seats. My kids love the DVD player. Callers on the cell phone have to ask if I'm driving because they don't hear any road noise. I'd tested the Explorer, Durango, Trailblazer and Highlander they don't compare to the XL. The best feature according to my wife is that it still fits in the garage. After all the research and time spent testing I know that we made the best choice.

I recently went on vacation and all that was available was a Chevy blazer, UGH. You forget how good you have it! Seating is so comfortable, truly drives and handles like a cadillac. I have found NOTHING I would change!
