Used 2003 GMC Envoy Consumer Reviews
Envoy
In the 5 months I have owned this vehicle I have had to have it serviced 13 times, only once has been for an oil change. The other 12 have been service problems. I am currently still having problems with the A/C, the 4WD, and the transmission. The overall design of the vehicle is wonderful, but not worth the hassle of continual maintenance.
Love it!
Have had no problems with this SUV. Only returned to dealer because of a recall notice. Mileage is what I expected. Traded in an Olds that left me stranded twice-I am thrilled. I have had this Envoy for 6 months without a care.

love it
I have always owned cars, this is my first SUV. I have always liked the look of the envoy, and like the GMC brand. This truck is smooth, has lots of pep, and is very comfortable. Also built very well. I love how it handles. Sure, it's not the handling like I'm used to (Dodge Avenger my most recent car) but for an SUV it is excellent.
Great comfort and towering views
I'm pleased with the ride and control I have at all speeds. I bought a base model and it is very confortable. Only issue is base radio is not that good and my transmission has to be adjusted. I would recommend upgrading the radio for better sound on base.
03 Envoy
I really enjoy driving this Envoy. It looks great and has a Cady ride. I do agree the it is a bit "tippy" feeling when cornering hard but it is a SUV after all. The I-6 power is great and doesn't have a soft spot. The 4WD system is easy to get to when needed.
Disappointed Buyer
I purchased the it to replace my Isuzu Trooper. I have had 4 Isuzus over the last 8 years with 1 warranty service. This is the replacement for the Trooper. This Envoy has had the A/C repaired 4 times, the power mirrors actuators replaced and the O2 sensor replaced. I have also had problems with the automatic wipers and the memory for the radio and seats. All this with less than 16,000 miles.
Good so far!
Priced well among same size competitors. Engine is very reactive which is always nice. Fuel capacity is poor as usual. Never understood why they make a car that gets poor gas milage with a 16 gallon gas tank! Interior: Good, only one mistake. For such a roomy interior, they cheaped out on the technology for cup holders. There are 2 cup holders, one undersized jammed in between the console and the shifter, the other behind the shirfter....in the way of the arm rest. other than that, good!

Excellent power, no problems since delivery.
New Envoy
Have only had it for 12 days, however, it is the best constructed USA built vehicle I have owned, Build quality rivals Nissan, Infinity and Toyota all of which we own.(which really surprises me). Purchased this on over a 4Runner, because for $3000 less we got the same features, more horsepower and onlt 7 ft lbs less tourque and fuel consumtion is less than Toyota and does not require premium fuel.
Great Truck when it's not Broken
Love everything about this truck. Comfort, features, ride, power all good. Problem is it's broken more than it runs. Dash died. Key won't come out of ignition. Heat died. 4x4 transfer case died. Ignition system failed. Now having tranny problems and dealer says sorry you can take a loss and trade it in or deal with the loss of time every month when it breaks. 35K and this is not acceptable! Would buy another if someone could convince me all the bugs were fixed but haven't found that person yet - looks like time to find a new brand and dealer.
