Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE CONSOLE LATCH MECHANISM.

I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF A 2000 GMC JIMMY ENVOY. I SMELLED BURNING PLASTIC AS I WAS DRIVING AND WAS TOLD BY ANOTHER MOTORIST THAT I HAD NO BRAKE LIGHTS. THE LIGHTS CAME ON AND STAYED ON AND THEN THEY WOULD NOT WORK. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A LOCAL REPAIR SHOP TO REPLACE THE TURN SIGNAL & HAZARD WARNING SWITCH. THIS CORRECTED THE BRAKE LIGHT PROBLEM. AFTER READING ABOUT THE REASON FOR THE RECALL OF THESE SWITCHES, I DISASSEMBLED THE OLD SWITCH ONLY TO FIND THAT IT ALSO HAD BRASS CONTACTS FOR THE HAZARD WARNING LAMPS. THIS WAS SUPPOSEDLY REPLACED IN 2003 BY A DEALER. REPLACING IT WITH THE SAME PART THAT WAS RECALLED! *TR

ALSO IN LOGGING ON I'VE LISTED MY VIN # WITH THE 17 CHARACTERS. THE SIGHT LISTED THAT I WAS GIVING AN INVALID # OF LESS THAN 17 BUT, IN FACT I LISTED EXACTLY THE 17. MR
CONSUMER STATES THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE ON STAR SYSTEM IN THE VEHICLE AND WHAT GMC IS DOING REPLACING THE ON STAR SYSTEM AND IN THE PROCESS IS DISABLEING THE SYSTEM. WHAT GMC IS NOT DOING IS INFORMING THE CONSUMERS WITH THIS PROBLEM SO IF THE CONSUMER EVER NEEDS HELP THE ON STAR SYSTEM WILL NOT WORK UNTIL IT IS ACTIVATED. NLM
