Example complaints

Electrical system: “I own 2 Envoy's 1 is a 03 and the other one is a 05 my 03 oil pressure and tach. Gauge messes up from time to time... My 05 oil pressure and speedometer doesn't work. I called Gmc and they said to contact you... My air bag light stays on my 03, I'm guessing that means it won't work if needed.....”
