The backup camera gets wet and uselessly blurry in rain. It's no a deal breaker, but noise is noise, and it is somewhat bothersome. The windshield wipers are noisier than they should be. On the plus side, the wire mesh sun screen is unbelievably effective. The sunroof is too small, and awfully noisy even at 40 mph. If it's a lawsuit you're worried about, well, I just laid out the plaintiff's wining case. Stop doing dumb things - stop trying to mommy us. There is a pressure sensor in the passenger seat ANYWAY, so when there is someone sitting there, allow the controls in the navigation system to be active. Does that sound safer? Or, we've have to enter the address into a tiny screen in our phones. So, now we have to stop on an Interstate (cars flying by at 85 mph) so we can enter an address. You can just hear the committee of lawyers deciding it's too dangerous to have these controls active while the car is moving. The instrument panel controls, and far worse, the navigation controls are NOT accessible (meaning, you can't enter an address, ask for the location of the nearest Best Buy, etc.) once the car is in Drive and moving. The Envoy had an air pump built into the car. I wish they would have spent a buck more and used real chrome on the exterior where they have used chrome looking plastic. The dealer is aware of the problem and has no solution. To be sure, this isn't a deal breaker, but it is a hassle and it will cause my tires to wear down faster. We own a 1994 Mercedes SL500 in mint condition, and I only add air once a year. Put in 35 psi (measured by a good handheld pressure and the you'll be down to 34 the next day, and down 31 or 32 pounds in 7-10 days. ![]() The 20" tires are supposed to be maintained at 35 psi, they lose pressure (all four of them) constantly, and not over months, but over days. The Cons: Unless you bought a badly designed and built car, this stuff only becomes obvious over time. The Pros: Build quality, engine and transmission are reliable and well balanced, ride, cabin comfort, seat configuration (dropping seats and re-erecting them for cargo space configuration is superbly easy), handling, super quiet cabin, predictable handling, lack of roll or sway, great towing, superb acceleration, great a/c (a must in south Florida), HUD display (it's amazing how much … we've come to love it), the lighting is great, the backup camera is superb, the lumbar support and overall seat design is as good it can be, seat belts are easy to use and comfortable, cooled seats are really great, navigation is very good. ![]()
