I bought this vehicle new (very expensive). I have replaced over $1000 in rear door latches, obviously a defect,they only warrant 1 yr or 20K km, what does km have to do with a latch. GM head office doesn't like to return phone calls.. I finally spoke to her again & their decision was "your on your own". I have replaced the transfer case 1 1/2 yrs ago, now I have to replace the motor in it.Stranded again when gear shifter broke (it's plastic) go figure. No speadometer for over a year now (called cluster) would cost over $1000, neither heated seats work. My list goes on. I take care of my vehicles but this is ridiculous. GM does NOT stand behind their products. I will NEVER own another one.

The SUV that literally turns into a pickup is a great idea. Being able to lay a full sheet of drywall or plywood flat in the rear cargo area is another great design. My issue with the vehicle is all the repairs that have had happen and I barely have break in mileage on the vehicle at 78,000. I've had to replace the thermostat; it's had 3 sets of tires; the front and rear sway bar links have been replaced; when I am sitting at a stop, the speedometer reads as high as 40 (this number varies at different times). Other instrument panel gauges often show the wrong information. And last but not least, I am now experiencing issues with the transmission. I've owned other GM vehicles and this has been my least favorite experience as far as repairs. I like the vehicle overall. I just don't think I should have so many repair bills for 78,000 miles. I did have to replace the transmission ($2,900). I also had to have the instrument panel overhauled ($200). In addition, the midgate window regulator had to be replaced because one day it went down and wouldn't go back up. The vehicle recently turned 95,000 miles and finally seems to be in good working order. We'll see! Recent repair (08/2020) was a cracked fuel tank. It now has 106,000 miles. Vehicle now has 111,000 and no additional repairs have been made (2/2022). This vehicle is still going. Obviously, I don't drive a lot. Current mileage is 117,350 (08/17/2023)

I really love my XUV. I went looking at the Durangos, Trailblazers and Volvos. The interiors were all cheesy. As soon as I say in the XUV I was hooked. The leather heated seats keep you warm and wrap around you. The retractable roof is a plus since I traded in my Ram for it. The V6 is powerful enough for what I need. The only negative is my own fault. I bought a black one and black is no fun to keep clean. But when its clean its the baddest looking SUV on the street.

I have owned this vehicle for 6 years now, use it to tow skidoos in the winter, hauled just about everything in the back, drywall, garden supplies, wood, fridges, an oven etc. It now has 160,000 km on it and has suffered what I would consider less than average issues. Common problems for all Envoy models are the front bearings, instrument cluster and the inline 6 has a fairly light duty exhaust manifold which in my case cracked. The good news is the parts are easy to buy aftermarket replacements and I replaced the bearings myself. I found a guy who replaced all the faulty motors in the cluster too for 200$ cash and the exhaust manifold was 1000 dollar fix. Not bad for 9 years +
Certainly not the best car i have ever owned

I have a 2004 envoy xuv v8, its now on its 3rd transmission (work done at gm) 2nd engine (from gm), the tailgate regulator has broken 3 times and been replaced because it locks us out of the trunk, the mid-gate regulator is currently broken, it has always had some mysterious shake at idle, gm told us that was just part of the car. The speedometer has been stuck at 120mph for the past year, the drivers seat (power) only works sometimes. and its only got 100k miles, it does have one of the best rides i have ever seen, and the 5.3 v8 does have great power.. I take good care of it, but since iv owned this, I can see why they stopped making them. after this, i doubt il buy another gm

Aw shucks, 98,000 miles, and I had to put brake pads on it. Other than oil changes and one set of tires, that is is for maintenance. Still like the car as new, and a pickup truck it is indeed. Tows 27' boats, hauls plywood, and 12 foot planks, Yanmar diesels, you name it. And it still looks terrific.

We bought our Envoy XUV new in 2003. Just when the warranty ran out, we began to have electrical problems. Can't remember what it was that was replaced but it was pricey. A year later, same exact thing. We've been able to get by, since then, by carrying a battery charger with us. If the system shuts down, we're stranded. Yesterday, the battery would not charge and we were towed to the dealer, again! We've always had Hondas and have never had any problems whatsoever. My husband was reluctant to buy a GMC product. Only reason we bought this was because of the sliding roof feature, which we've only used once or twice in 6 years. We'll stick with Hondas next time.

I got the XUV to have a new vehicle to drive to my son's college graduation in May 2004. We fell in love with it during the trip. We had 3 rather large adults for the 1000 mile trip out to the college and we all were amazingly comfortable. After 3+ years the automobile continues to please the family. I have had it back to the dealership only for the recommended service at 6000 and 12000 miles. The OnStar phone has become a necessity. Beware the phone on my OnStar uses analog technology and will need to be upgraded to digital by 2008. This "conversion" costs about $400, but gets you OnStar telephone service for 3 years, which appears to be a good deal if you are going to use it.

I have owned my XUV for nearly 2 years and I am very impressed. Very versatile vehicle. It allows me to travel comfortably, tow moderate weight trailers and boats, The conversion to Pick-up function has proved to be extremely useful. Highly recommend for any driver who needs an SUV but really wants a truck.
Most versatile vehicle I've ever owned

I flew to Alabama from South Texas to get the XUV because it had been discontinued and was hard to find. I will keep my XUV until it dies, because of how versatile it is (SUV/Pickup). Not to mention how enjoyable it is to drive. I've taken it to the Smokey Mtns, the Ozarks as well as traveled home to Wisconsin from deep South Texas without any problems. To me this is the perfect travel vehicle.
The best of both

Who doesn't wanted all. Well now you can, The luxury of an suv, smooth ride comfortable,roomy, handles more like a big car than an suv, and the versitilty of a truck. Knowing the whole time with a flip of a couple of switches, your not limited where you go based on what vehiclbe your driving. In the Xuv pick up your Tv, furniture,apliances,without any problems. True story bought washer and dryer told the guy I was in the blue suv he got a little upset and explain that they only load if it fits the vehicle. I told him it will. He mumbled thinking he would have to d-box the items and squeeze them in. When I open the roof, drop the tail gate he's words "nice, I would have never guessed that"

I love this SUV. She rides like a cadillac and handles very well on both the highway and the back road hills. Gas millage is ok I guess for a SUV but making a sacrafice for comfort is well worth it.

Have used this vehicle like a truck, hauling appliances, furniture easy with the retractable roof. Perfect for taking the dog with mid window and can rinse out the back area. Looks like a SUV and behaves like a truck. Also with sunroof open ,roof open and windows down looks like a beach mobile.

I owned a 2005 with all the bells and whistles and loved it. My son totaled it and walked away without a scratch on him. I was only able to find a 2004 to replace it that had some of the options I wanted. Would not have been satisfied with another truck style. Everything else I even remotely liked was over $50,000. One terriffic truck to own and drive. By the way the 2004 has a V8 that gets better milage then the six in the 2005.

The Envoy XUV is a Truck, SUV and Luxury car all in one. It is very dependable, but I did have a few issues that happened. The rear Gate door handle will probably give you a problem, also in winter the door will freeze up. The 4X4 service light has just came on on mine at 66,000 miles. Do not know what is wrong with it yet. It is a good truck for long trips, Vacations and picking up supplies and items. I like the style of the body, and the way it handles the road. It gets pretty good gas mileage for it's size. The V6 has plenty of power, and you feel really safe in it.
Don't buy, bad instrument cluster!

GMC has a known instrument cluster problem whereas all gauges stop working, the speedometer does not register correctly, but GM will not perform a recall even though it is a factory defect. $500 to $1000 to fix the problem out of the consumers pocket. GM should be ashamed of themselves! Never again!

At 40,000 miles my my gas gauge quit working and went I went to the dealer he said it's not a warranty and it would cost me over $600.00 to repair. Then, a week later, my control for my fan went out on the 5th speed and a week later the 4 speed went out. again the dealer seem to very surprised and said wow this never happens either and for 500.00 they could fix the switch. What I find amazing is my wife's van made by Chevrolet has the exact same problem. GMC have to be aware of this problem but they don't care and people wonder why imports are doing well. We also have a 94 Honda in our family with 200,000 miles and we've done nothing except oil changes and tires.

We have used this vehicle constantly since purchase. It has been used for trips and pulling our trailer. It is not quite 7 months and we have over 18,000 miles on it. It has not failed us once! The far back area is used for our 4 dogs. With the window separating it from the seating area the flying fur is no longer a problem. To clean it you just need a hose. What a pleasure this vehicle is. The best ever!!!!!

Rides like a dream. Looks exceptional, performs like a top of the line SUV should. Handles great in bad weather. OnStar gives me an added feeling of security, knowing that my wife and children are safe @ all times and just a push button away from help, allows me to rest easy. Sheer comfort! A joy to drive and plenty of room for all of us and our things. Towing capabilities are huge. I tow a 22 foot fishing boat with no trouble. The sliding rear roof feature has come in handy for my wife a couple times already. Bringing home large trees and shrubs for the garden, and I used it to bring home a new refrigerator. The only knock I could give, the gas mileage could be better.

We were going to buy a Nissan Murano but after test driving the XUV we went with it. The best thing about this vehicle is the retractable roof and it offers a SMOOTH ride, something we didn't expect. This vehicle compared to the Murano wins hands down. The price is pretty reasonable for this vehicle. The blind spots is what keeps this vehicle from being perfect. Its very hard to see out the back and even harder to see small cars but even with this flaw its still a great vehicle.

Cluster issues just like everyone else, midgate window shattered after discovering it wouldnt go up or down rear window motor litterally fell apart just like everyone elses, bought used old man driven and winterproofed every year so it shouldnt continuously have these issues 🤬 parts are rare to find now and dealership charges an arm and a leg for them IF they even have them. 100% do not reccomend.

I bought this truck because I own a couple of properties and I have to occasionally lug around doors and things. So this truck isnt my everyday car but I love driving it. It is so comfy and I love the design with the fold down seats and the roll off roof. I already moved a huge cabinet and it was perfect for the job! Its also a great "dog" truck. I have 3 dogs and love to take them for drives. I havent rinsed out the back cargo area yet but I was told that was an option. You can't fit seven people but when do you drive 7 people around? Its great for people who want the utility of a pickup truck but want the "wholeness" of an SUV. I love it!

We've owned our XUV for over a year now and still love it. It gets great gas mileage (20+mpg) for its size. The versitility of the back end is great. Our dog rides back there most of the time and we don't have to worry about her muddy feet. The only problem we had was a high pitched whine in the passenger side speaker. They replaced the battery cable and that fixed it.

I bought my car last October and loved it until a month after having it I was in the shop with windshield wipers not working and other electrical problems. It is now one years old with 12000 miles on it and it has been in the shop 9 times. Check engine light keeps coming on, keeps stalling, and has had many parts replaced, such as egnishion, flush of fluids, they had to take apart my transmission, the brakes keep jumping, sometimes things work sometimes they don't. I love the look of the SUV but that is it! Too many problems for a Brand New SUV.

This vehicle rides like a luxury car but hauls better than a pickup, with the ability to haul an enclosed load or an open, tall load...true versatility. The durability of the rear bumper cover is questionable, and useful life of all the motors/switches used to power the retractable roof and cargo-area windows is yet to be determined. Only time will tell, but if the watertightness of the roof seals and the overall quietness of the passenger cabin are any indications, GMC has delivered a real winner! If your kids are grown and you don't need to haul the entire soccer team to practice and a five- passenger capability is sufficient, then this SUV is for you!

Ride is very comfortable, handles pot holes well. Very well appointed/ loaded vehicle, all the creature comforts you will ever want or need. With sunroof, midgate window, backdoor window & roof open, it feels like a pseudo convertible. Trunk door is ingeneuous. An engineering masterpiece. The flexibility is fantastic. The shape is similar to an ACURA MDX (at quick glance) which is a simple & pleasing shape. Very balanced in terms of its masculinity and feminine design appeal/ image. Nice color selection. Since it's still winter here in NY, We have not tried washing the trunk yet.

I purchased my XUV in March 2004 and I have not been disappointed as of yet. GMC did a great job on designing this SUV (XUV). The roof retracts flawlessly. The ride is cushiony; handles bumps and potholes like the more expensive vehicles. My truck has the 1SB package (Onstar, built-in phone, heated mirrors, etc.)but even without all that the vehicle would be an excellent choice, because it comes standard with goodies. I have not regretted my decision in the least. The midglass that separates the cargo area is a wonderful addition. All I can say is, get it before GMC realizes the goldmine that they have and raises the price.
OK vehicle, but would not buy again.

We bought the XUV because it was very unique and fit our needs at the time. It was great at first, but over the past few years has had many issues. The midgate glass window shattered when raising it one time. The reargate window motor has broken twice in the past 3 years and gets stuck down (and then you can't open the rear door.) The rear door "sensor" has malfunctioned a few times where it takes me about 5 minutes of messing around with it to get the door open. And the instrument cluster is bad (according to the dealership). My speedometer and oil pressure gauges don't work. Currently debating whether to spend $1000 to get it "fixed" or buy a different vehicle.

So sum it up, I love this vehicle. I have had it for a few weeks and everyone wants to see it. I traded in a Durango for one and I'm not looking back. Great utility. I am able to haul everything I need. There are a few things I mis from my Durango. Cup holders suck, too small. Speakers is lower model suck. Biggest problem I have with the vehicle is getting the wife not to take it.

This truck drives like a luxury car. The 5300 Vortec V8 engine gets me into freeway traffic easily. I love the retractable roof and the power midgate. It's a manual fold-down, but it has a piece of glass in it - like those in a limo - best thing for pet owners. I'm REALLY satisfied with the customer service I'm getting from GMC and the dealership. They have gone out of their way to help me with after- purchase issues. I would buy another GMC product in a heartbeat.
Nice trade off from a truck

My experience with Envoy XUV has been nothing but positive from what use I have for it. Its V8 power is untouchable for a vehicle of it class. If GM continue with this pattern of car design and build the upside looks very good. Also you should include the V8 in your lineup of XUV to comment on in the next segment.

I purchased the ENVOY XUV 2WD SLE in April. BRAVO to GMC for coming up with a truck/suv design that is bar none. My husband and I had been looking for a vehicle that would serve our need to have the functionality of a truck and a suv for years.

i did not find the handling spongy at all, it handle very well yes the cross winds did effect it a little to be expected since it is large. the ride was just excellant. everything inside was easy for myself and passenger to find and use. i had enormous power with the v8, also had good gas milage considering the the weight and size about 20 mph to gal. highway. the capabilites of this vehicle are great i can seat 5 very comfortable great leg and head room. stereo and speakers very good, standard 1sb interior.load leveling supension was great too. it was and is fun to drive. want lugage room this xuv has it and a lot more.

We had a Safari van that we traded in for this vehicle. Children have grown up and we wanted to have a fun vehicle to drive. This is it. Drives like a cadillac, yet capable to haul and tow like our pickup, truly awesome..........Thank you G.M. for a great design.
Dogs love XUV's!!

Truly a unique design that could have been done a long time ago. Thanks GM for having the guts to bring a truck like this to market. So far it has execeeded my expectations. The doors close with a solid thunk, the engine is silent at idle (next to silent at crusing speed), and the engineering is first rate.

Outstanding ride quality unless you'll be off road, in which event it might feel too soft. Excellent fit and finish, and great useability with rear roof retraction. Everything you want a truck for (I traded an 02' Ranger XLT) and everything you want an SUV for (Use to own Suburbans and Explorers), both in the same vehicle.
