I think it certainly could. Don't let the insurance company off the hook! Get it to a shop for a written verification of the problem, then go after the ins. company.
Have the FAN CLUTCH checked. they are a common failure. Get a AC DELCO or the part from the dealer. Why was the radiator replaced? Heater work OK? A/C works OK?
There many things that can turn off the CC, intermittent or poorly adjusted brake light switch, faulty vehicle speed sensor (VSS), faulty wheel sensor, intermittent fault code set by computer. A real time scan of the computer would have to be done to isolate the cause.
The 2004 Envoy has a problem with the transmission failing. It could be an electronics problem, but it sounds as though there is no pressure in the transmisssion, perhaps a bad pump.
Replace wiper motor to correct problem,removing fuse will cause other problems as there are other devices run by one fuse.You could unplug wiper motor if acessable.
With the limited information you provided, it would be a good idea to bring your Envoy to a transmission shop for analysis. Most general repair shops and even many dealers do not do this work because it is so specialized. Bringing it directly to a transmission shop yourself will save the "mark up" charged by general repair shops.
You can expect problems with the transmission if you do not have it serviced regularly. Problems can be intensified if you pull a trailer, drive in hot, dusty areas, or do a lot of stop and go driving and do not perform the scheduled maintenance.
Sometimes, low fluid level can be a source of the problem and other times a change of fluid can solve the problem - but not as often as one would hope. Check the fluid level on the dipstick. Add enough fluid to bring it to the correct level. The fluid should be pinkish/red in color, but will likely be darker if it has been in for a long time. Regardless of color, the fluid should not smell burnt. An improperly shifting / slipping transmission coupled with burnt smelling fluid is an indicator of a potential expensive transmission rebuild on the horizon.
