VISIBILITY:POWER WINDOW DEVICES AND CONTROLS

The protective coating may not eliminate the risk that the circuit board could short and result in a fire, even while the vehicle is unattended.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS

Headlamps that do not illuminate reduce the driver's ability to see the roadway and reduce the vehicle's visibility to oncoming vehicles, both of which increase the risk of a vehicle crash.

A short in the circuit board could lead to a fire, increasing the risk of personal injury. A fire could occur even while the vehicle is not in use. As a precaution, owners are advised to park outside until the remedy has been made.

This page is about a model, not a car

Two 2006 GMC ENVOY XLs can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it. Scanning the VIN adds the decode, the crash tests, the fuel economy and the complaints matched to that exact engine, trim and assembly plant.
