2007 Chevrolet Equinox 4-DR.

Keys constantly stuck in the ignition. The air bag always turns on and off. Now, there's gas leaking somewhere and you can smell it well after the cars off. I think it may be the fuel pump, which is very pricey. All these were recalled in the past but none of them included my car.

The contact owns a 2007 Chevrolet Equinox. The contact stated while driving at 60 MPH, The contact heard a bell noise ringing from the vehicle. The contact the vehicle was running hot so the contact pulled the vehicle over to the side of the road and open the hood and check coolant and waited a few minutes for the vehicle to cool down before restarting the vehicle and driving to their residence. The contact took the vehicle to a independent mechanic shop where they inspected the vehicle and diagnosed the failure the clips connected the fan was burnt so they replaced the part, however the failure persisted. The mechanic has replaced the thermostat the heat sensor and change out anti freeze and put a new fan motor. to fix the failure, but the failure still persisted. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 177,003.

Everytime my vehicle is exposed to water by rain or car wash. It goes into low power mode or limp mode only accelerating to like 30mph. I was told there is water getting somewhere is shouldnt causing a short. Im not the only one with this problem . Ive read on several forums.I was just on the freeway recently and it rained for about 5 minutes here in fresno California which is extremely unusual because it is still summer and the vehicle did this while i was driving. I could've caused an accident i had to pull over and stop driving. I turned off and on the car several times and the low power mode finally went away, and also the service stabilitrak system. Chevy is aware of this problem and they need to fix before somebody gets hurt

The contact owns a 2007 Chevrolet Equinox. The contact stated that at vehicle start-up, there was a strong gasoline odor inside the vehicle. The contact also stated that the vehicle would appear to lose nearly half a tank of gasoline approximately 1 to 2 hours after fill-up. The contact also stated that a friend who was also an independent mechanic had checked underneath the vehicle and discovered a small amount of gasoline that had spilled out of the fuel pump. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed her that the vehicle was not included in NHTSA campaign number: 12V459000 (Fuel System, Gasoline). The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 100,266.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE VEHICLE WAS LEAKING GASOLINE. THE CONTACT STATED NO WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A LOCAL DEALER OR INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT YET REPAIRED. THE CONTACT RELATED THE FAILURE TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 12V459000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE). THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 189,000.

THE PASSENGER AIRBAG SENSOR WAS NOT WORKING CORRECTLY. IT WOULD SOMETIMES NOT REGISTER IF SOMEONE WAS SITTING IN THE SEAT OR NOT. THEN THE SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND HAS STAYED ON. THIS MEANS THAT THE AIRBAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY IN CASE OF A CRASH. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. I LOOKED UP TO SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL ON IT. THERE ISN'T AN OPEN RECALL ON MY PARTICULAR VIN NUMBER BUT THERE IS ON SOME OF THE SAME MODEL. I HAVE SEEN MANY COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER OWNERS OF 2007 CHEVY EQUINOXES. I BELIEVE THIS IS A MANUFACTURER PROBLEM AND SHOULD HAVE A RECALL ISSUED FOR IT. THE REPAIR COST IS ABOUT $1000.

MY AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON AND STAYING ON 90% OF THE TIME AND WHEN I HAVE PASSENGER THE PASSENGER AIRBAG DOESN'T TURN ON

VEHICLE LEAKING FUEL NEAR RIGHT REAR WHEEL. FUMES IN VEHICLE

AFTER WORK STARTED TO SMELL STRONG GAS SMELL. LOOK UNDER VEHICLE AND SEEN PUDDLE OF GAS. SHOP SAYS IT A LEAK IN THE GAS PIPE AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED

ENGINE OVERHEATING "STATIONARY AND IN MOTION" SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH MOST 2006 AND ABOVE. I REPLACED THE THERMOSTAT, THE WATER PUMP, I PERFORMED A RADIATOR FLUSH, REPLACED THE ECT SENSOR, AND STILL THE CAR OVER HEATS. I DID A COMPRESSION TEST AND IT'S FINE, I CHECKED THE HEAD GASKETS AND THEY ARE FINE. THE OIL LOOKS FINE, THE RADIATOR FLUID LOOKS FINE. I WENT THROUGH A CAR WASH AFTER REPLACING THE WATER PUMP, THERMOSTAT, AND ECT SENSOR. THE CAR STILL OVER HEATS, BOTH AT IDLE AND AFTER DRIVING 2 MILES OR 10 MILES. I'VE BEEN TOLD IT'S EITHER AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE, A RADIATOR ISSUE, OR ENGINE ELECTRICAL ISSUE. I CAN NOT KEEP PUTTING MONEY INTO A CAR THAT IS ONLY WORTH $2,500. MANY OTHER PEOPLE I HAVE NOTICED POSTED THE SAME ISSUE OF OVER HEATING AND NOTHING IS BEING DONE ABOUT IT. IT SHOULD BE A CHEVY RECALL, AND REPAIRED BY THE MANUFACTURER. HERE IS AN EXAMPLE OF 1 OTHER COMPLAINT:........ON NOVEMBER 17TH THE VEHICLE STARTED TO TELL ME THAT IT WAS OVERHEATING AND TO TURN A/C OFF. A/C WAS NOT EVEN ON BECAUSE IT WAS COLD AND THE HEAT WAS BLOWING COLD AIR. THE VEHICLE THEN TOLD ME WHILE I WAS TRYING TO GET TO A SAFE LOCATION TO PULL OVER THAT THE ENGINE POWER WAS REDUCED AND THE VEHICLE STATED TO CRAWL ALONG THE ROAD. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS LOOKED AT WHERE I PULLED OVER THERE WAS MINIMAL OIL IN THE VEHICLE AND IT HAD BLOW COOLANT ALL OVER THE DRIVER SIDE WHEEL WELL FROM WHAT LOOKED LIKE THE OVERFLOW TUBE. OIL WAS PUT IN THE VEHICLE SO THAT I COULD DRIVE IT TO A SAFE LOCATION. ON NOVEMBER 18TH I WENT TO START THE VEHICLE TO GO TO WORK AND WITHOUT GOING ANY PLACE BUT SITTING IN THE DRIVEWAY IT STARTED TO TELL ME THAT THE ENGINE WAS OVERHEATING AND TO TURN A/C OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED. THE DEALERSHIP THAT I USE WORKED ON IT AND REPLACED THE TEMP CONTROL AND THERMOSTAT AND DID A COMPLETE OIL CHANGE. MANY OTHER EQUINOX OWNERS ARE HAVING SAME ISSUE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE HIS WIFE WAS DRIVING 35 MPH, THE FRONT PASSENGER'S SIDE BAGS WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. UPON INVESTIGATION, THE CONTACT ASSOCIATED THE FAILURE WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 07V344000 (AIR BAGS), HOWEVER THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER RYDELL CHEVROLET LOCATED AT 18600 DEVONSHIRE ST #1309, NORTHRIDGE, CA 91324, (866) 802-5628, WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED AND THE CONTACT INFORMED THAT THE AIR BAGS CALIBRATION SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD BEEN INFORMED OF FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 50,000. *LN*DT CONSUMER STATED FUEL PUMP WAS ALSO RECALLED AND HAD IT REPAIRED WITHOUT KNOWING IT WAS RECALLED. *JB

WE BOUGHT OUR SON THIS VEHICLE WHEN HE GOT HIS LICENSE BACK IN SEPT 2019. THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT SENSOR ISN'T WORKING CAUSING THE PASSENGER AIR BAG TO NOT BE SAFELY ENGAGED. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE A RECALL AND REPLACED IMMEDIATELY. ALSO, THERE IS HARDLY ANY HEAT COMING FROM THE BLOWERS. WE HAD IT IN MULTIPLE TIMES BUT NOONE CAN FIGURE IT OUT. WE HAVE REPLACED: HEATER CORE, WATER PUMP, THERMOSTAT, RADIATOR, RESEVOIR. ECT..FLUSHED IT A MILLION TIMES AND HAD THE HEADS PRESSURE CHECKED, NOTHING WORKED. IT GETS VERY LITTLE HEAT WHEN IDLING, AND GIVES "LUKE WARM" HEAT WHEN RPMS INCREASE WHILE DRIVING. LAST WINTER MY SON COULD HARDLY KEEP HIS WINDSHIELD DEFROSTED/DEFOGGED AND ALMOST LOST VISIBILITY WHILE DRIVING TO SCHOOL. NOT TO MENTION FREEZING TO DEATH WITH NO ADEQUATE HEAT. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE.

WHILE DRIVING SUDDENLY STABLITRAK SERVICE LIGHT AND ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. DOOR LOCKS START UNLOCKING AND LOCKING, ALL LIGHTS START FLASHING AND CAR SLOWS DOWN. AT THE SAME TIME STEERING WHEEL BECOMES VERY TIGHT AND UNABLE TO TURN. HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING ANY SPEED. HAVE HAD MANY VISITS TO MECHANICS: ECM REPLACED AND PROGRAMMED WAS THE LAST ATTEMPT PRIOR TO THAT I HAD A NEW STARTED PUT ON. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE FOR CHEVROLET'S FROM MY RESEARCH. RECENTLY BOUGHT A USED 2014 CHEVY TRAVERSE LT AND I'M STARTED TO SEE THE SAME ISSUES AND I'VE ONLY HAD IT 1 WEEK. I'M VERY UPSET THESE MODELS AREN'T SAFE. TO MANY TIMES TO COUNT HOW MANY TIME IT'S HAPPENED MAYBE 30-40 IN 1 YEAR.

THE CAR WHEN I DRIVE OVER THE 60 MILES, MAKE AUTO BREAK BY SELF. IS REALLY SCARY.

MY CHEVY EQUINOX LT HAS THE PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT ON. IT SAYS IT NEEDS TO BE SERVICED BUT MY CAR DOESN'T FALL UNDER THE RECALL. I PURCHASED THIS CAR OFF OF SOMEONE, THERE HAS BEEN NO ACCIDENT REPORTS. IT JUST SUDDENLY STOPPED WORKING. MY CAR ONLY HAS 98,000 MILES.IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE COVERED BY CHEVY.

THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER IN MY 2007 CHEVY EQUINOX LS ALL THE GAUGES STOP WORKING THEN I'LL START WORKING AND YOU DON'T KNOW IF YOUR CAR IS OVERHEATING YOU DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH GAS YOU HAVE OR HOW FAST YOU'RE GOING THE ODOMETER STUCK AT 1:20 SOME DAYS THAT'LL WORK SOME DAYS IT DON'T AND I BELIEVE THEY HAD A RECALL ON THIS BUT ONLY SOME CARS WERE AFFECTED WHEN THEY SHOULD HAVE RECALLED ALL OF THEM AND REPLACE THE STEPPER MOTORS ON ALL 2007 EQUINOXES NOT JUST SOME I'VE BEEN DEALING WITH THIS NOW FOR TOO LONG AS THEY SAID IT WAS VERY EXPENSIVE TO GET IT REPAIRED WELL WITH ALL THE COMPLAINTS I SEEN ONLINE I FEEL THAT THEY SHOULD HAVE RECALLED IT AND FIXED ALL OF THEM THERE STILL A LOT OF 07 ON THE ROAD AND IT'S A SAFETY HAZARD MY WIFE REFUSES TO DRIVE THE CAR CUZ SHE DOESN'T KNOW HOW FAST SHE'S GOING AND I'M ABOUT TO THAT POINT NOW I DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH GAS I GOT SOMETIMES I DON'T KNOW IF THE CAR IS HOT OR IF I'M GOING TO RUN OUT OF GAS I DO USE THE TRIP FUNCTION ON EVERY TANK OF GAS I HAVE TO MY I REALLY THINK THIS NEEDS TO BE TAKING A LOOK AT AN ALL O SEVENS RECALLS ON THE STEPPER MOTORS REPLACED OR SOMEBODY GETS KILLED SOMEBODY MAY PANIC THINK THEY'RE GOING 120 OR THINK THAT THEIR CARS GOING TO STOP AND THEY COULD GET INTO SERIOUS ACCIDENT BECAUSE THE GAUGES AREN'T WORKING AND IT JUST STARTLED THEM THIS PROBLEM STARTED AFTER I PURCHASE THE VEHICLE USED AND THE GUY TOLD ME THAT HE NOTICED IT A COUPLE TIMES ON THE ODOMETER WELL IT'S SLOWLY DEVELOPED INTO ALL THE GAUGES NOW. *TR

THE CAR KEEP OVERHEATING WHEN I'M DRIVING AND AT A STAND STILL THE FAN KEEP COMING ON AND THE MECHANIC CAN NOT FIGURE OUT WHAT IS CAUSING THE PROBLEM. *TR

THE PASSENGER SEAT AIRBAG DOES NOT TURN ON WHEN A PASSENGER IS SITTING IN THE SEAT. SOMETIMES IT WILL TURN ON AND OFF WHEN SOMEONE IS SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT.

MY 2007 CHEVY EQUINOX INSTRUMENT PANEL HAS BEEN ACTING UP HERE RECENTLY AND THE SPEEDOMETER GOES TO 120MPH AND STAYS THERE. YOU CAN'T TELL HOW FAST YOU ARE GOING. THAT IS A SAFETY ISSUE. THE GAS GAUGE N TEMPERATURE GAUGE WILL GO TO THE TOP LIKE FULL OR HOT OR NOT MOVE AT ALL. COULD BURN AN ENGINE UP OR RUN OUT OF GAS. RECALL WAS DONE I HEARD BUT NOT ON ALL 2007EQUINOX VEHICLES AND IT SHOULD HAVE INCLUDED ALL. THERE ARE A LOT STILL ON THE ROAD. I AM ASKING FOR SAFETY REASONS TO INCLUDE ALL 2007 CHEVY EQUINOX VEHICLES TO BE RECALLED AND FIXED BY GM. IT IS VERY EXPENSIVE TO HAVE REPAIRED AT A SHOP OR AT THE DEALER. IF I WAS ABLE TO DO MYSELF I WOULD BUT I'M NOT A MECHANIC OR DO I KNOW ELECTRICAL SO I'M NOT DOING IT. I WANT IT DONE BY A PROFESSIONAL AND I AM PLEADING THAT ALL 07 CHEVY EQUINOX VEHICLES BE INCLUDED AND A NEW RECALL BE SENT OUT TO ALL 2007 OWNERS. THAT IS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. NOT KNOWING THE SPEED YOU ATE GOING IS UNSAFE. IT GAS BEEN GOING ON NOW SINCE DECEMBER 2019 AND NOW ITS EVERYDAY. THE GAUGES MIGHT WORK ONE DAY THEN NOT WORK FOR 3 DAYS THEN WORK AGAIN FOR ONE DAY. IT NEEDS TO RECALLED ASAP. DOESN'T MATTER IF VEHICLE IS MOVING OR PARKED. IT WILL HO UP 120MPH AND STAY THERE FOR DAYS.

07 EQUINOX VEHICLE WOULDN'T START, KEY STUCK IN IGNITION. TRIED WIGGLING STEERING WHEEL WHICH WAS NOT LOCKED AND WOULD NOT LOCK. THE KEY WOULD NOT COME ALL THE WAY BACK IN ORDER TO GET IT OUT. CAR WAS IN PARK AT HOME THANK GOD. TRIED EVERYTHING I KNOW EVEN LOOKED IT UP ON GOOGLE. THERE WERE SO MANY COMPLAINTS ON THIS ABOUT 07 EQUINOX KEY STUCK AND SOME VEHICLES WOULD START AND LOTS MORE WOULDNT?? WE TRIED TO DO START BUT IT DID NOT TURN OVER. WE HAD TO PUT ON A CHARGER AND MONITOR THE BATTERY TO SEE IF IT WOULD CHARGE. LATER THAT NIGHT I TOOK THE VEHICLE OFF THE CHARGER AND TRIED IT AND IT STARTED. WENT AND HAD BATTERY CHECKED AT ADVANCE AUTO AND THEY SAID BATTERY HAS NO PROBLEMS FULLY CHARGED. HOW CAN THAT BE WHAT IS CAUSING THIS. I SEEN ONLINE MANY, MANY, COMPLAINTS ON THIS EQUINOX ISSUE AND IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE. WHAT HAPPENS IF IT DECIDES TO JUST STOP WORKING ON THE INTERSTATE GOING 65-75 MPH. SOMEONE COULD GET SERIOUS INJURED KILLED IF THEY LOSE POWER ALL OF A SUDDEN. NO LIGHTS WERE LEFT ON, NOTHING WAS LEFT ON CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO DRAIN THE BATTERY ALL OF A SUDDEN. THE KEY WAS NOT LEFT IN THE VEHICLE I WENT TO START IT AND KEY STAYED STUCK IN IGNITION AND TURNED OVER BUT NOTHING NO POWER. IF YOU LOSE POWER DRIVING YOU LOSE POWER STEERING. POWER BRAKES, AND IT TAKES A WHILE TO GET VEHICLE TO A STOP. EVEN USING PARKING BRAKE WHICH MOST PEOPLE WOULD PANIC AND FORGET TO TRY N GET VEHICLE STOPPED AND CRASH INTO AND CARS OR PEDESTRIANS FOR THAT MATTER IF POWER GOES OUT WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED. THIS NEED TO BE RECALLED AND FIGURE OUT WHAT IS CAUSING THIS PROBLEM. I HAD TO RECHARGE BATTERY MYSELF. IT CHECKED OUT AS GOOD BATTERY FULLY CHARGED? NO PREVIOUS INCIDENTS ON THIS MATTER THANK GOD. SHOULD RECALL ALL 07 EQUINOX AND HAVE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM CHECKED.

STRONG GAS SMELL FROM RIGHT REAR OF VEHICLE THAT SPREADS THROUGHOUT VEHICLE BOTH PARKED AND IN MOTION

WE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS AS SO MANY EQUINOX OWNERS ARE WITH PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG SEAT SENSOR. THIS PROBLEM IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. WHY WAIT FOR MORE PEOPLE TO BE INJURED OR WORSE AND DEMAND GM ADDRESS THIS ISSUE ONCE AND FOR ALL.

2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO SERVICE AIR BAG INDICATOR LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON DASHBOARD PANEL. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE DRIVER'S SIDE AIRBAG SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL.*JS

TAKATA RECALL. ON MARCH 29TH 2015 I WAS INVOLVED IN A AUTO ACCIDENT. AS A RESULT OF THAT ACCIDENT, I SUFFERED A BROKEN WRIST, BROKEN JAW, AND THE LOSS OF MY LEFT EYE. ALL OF THESE INJURIES WERE THE RESULT OF MY VEHICLES AIRBAG SYSTEM. IN THE ACCIDENT, NONE OF MY WINDOWS WERE BROKEN, THERE WERE NO LOOSE ITEMS IN THE VEHICLE. THE ONLY THING IN THE VEHICLE THAT HIT ME WAS THE AIRBAG AND ITS IS THE ONLY THING WHICH HAD BLOOD ON IT IN THE VEHICLE. I WAS WEARING MY SEATBELT AT THE TIME OF THE ACCIDENT. I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY (ATLANTIC CITY EXPRESSWAY) WHEN A TURNPIKE COMMISSION VEHICLE MADE A U-TURN AND TURNED UP IN FRONT OF ME LEADING TO THE ACCIDENT. MY VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING ON A FLAT HIGHWAY AT NIGHT, ON A STRAIGHT SECTION OF ROAD AT THAT TIME. I WAS THEN TRAPPED INSIDE MY VEHICLE FOR AN HOUR UNTIL RESCUE WORKERS HAD TO CUT ME OUT SO THAT I COULD BE FLOWN TO THE NEAREST TRAUMA UNIT. MY YEAR VEHICLE IS ALSO THE SAME YEAR THAT ALL OTHER CHEVY VEHICLES (AVALANCHE, SILVERADO LD/HD, TAHOE, AND SUBURBON) ON THE RECALL STARTED WHICH IS 2007. MY CHEVY EQUINOX WHICH IS ALSO IN THEIR SUV / TRUCK LINEUP IS NO DIFFERENT FROM THOSE AND USED THE SAME AIRBAG, TAKATA.

PASSENGER AIR BAG SENSOR NOT WORKING CORRECTLY. SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON AND WHEN SOMEONE IS SITTING IN PASSENGER SEAT THE AIRBAG DISPLAY ON DASH WILL GO ON AND OFF. THE SENSOR DOESN'T DETECT ALL THE TIME THAT A PASSENGER IS SITTING IN THE SEAT.

PASSENGER SEAT AIRBAG SENSOR DOES NOT DETECT WHEN AN OCCUPANT IS IN THE SEAT, SO THE AIRBAG IS ALWAYS OFF. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR SEVERAL MONTHS.

PURCHASED THE CAR USED WITH 115K MILES. THE FIRST SIGN OF AN ISSUE WAS THE SOUND OF WATER RUSHING TO THE HEATER CORE (AIR). CAR STARTED OVERHEATING A FEW WEEKS LATER AS THE OUTDOORS TEMPERATURE STARTED TO CLIMB IN LATE SPRING. I STARTED TO SEE WHITE SMOKE COMING FROM THE TAIL PIPE AND WAS HAVING TO ADD COOLANT EVERY OTHER DAY. THE ISSUE STARTED TO GET WORSE SO I TOOK IT TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED A HEAD GASKET FAILURE. THE ISSUE HAPPENS MORE FREQUENTLY ON HILLS, DURING HOT WEATHER AND WHILE STOPPED AT LIGHTS OR IN TRAFFIC. I TRIED TO USE A HEAD GASKET SEALANT WHICH WORKED FOR ABOUT A MONTH AND THEN THE CAR BEGAN TO OVERHEAT AGAIN. I CHECKED OUT SEVERAL FORUMS AND FIND THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE IN THIS VEHICLE DUE TO A POOR CHOSE OF HEAD GASKET WITH SOME ANTIFREEZE/COOLANT TYPES. HEAD GASKET REPLACEMENT IS VERY EXPENSIVE AND SHOULD BE COVERED BY A RECALL. THE RADIATOR HOSES ARE OVER PRESSURIZING AND WILL CAUSE RUPTURES WHICH WILL END UP BURNING SOMEONE SEVERELY.

PURCHASED A USED 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX 6 HOURS AFTER PURCHASE, SERVICE AIRBAGS LIGHT, SERVICE T TIRE MONITOR SYSTEM AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON IN THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND GAGS GUAGE STOPPED WORKING..

THE PASSENGERS SIDE AIRBAG WILL NOT STAY ON WHEN NO MATTER WHO ON IT, DOESN'T NOT POP ANY CODES OR ANYTHING. HAVE TAKEN IT TWO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS STILL NOTHINGS SAYS IT'S WORKING FINE. WHICH IT ISN'T, NOT SAFE AT ALL

THIS VEHICLE WAS SUPPOSEDLY REPAIRED IN A PREVIOUS RECALL, HOWEVER THE ISSUE WITH THE PASSENGER SEAT AIRBAG SENSOR PERSISTS. RECENTLY IT IS INCREASINGLY DIFFICULT TO GET THE SENSOR TO WORK FOR THE FRONT SEAT PASSENGER, AND IT GOES ON AND OFF AS THE VEHICLE IS DRIVEN. EITHER THE REPAIR WAS NOT ADEQUATE TO COMPLETELY RESOLVE THE PROBLEM OR NOT ACTUALLY COMPLETED.

I HAD MY REAR BRAKES REPLACED AND THEN A WEEK LATER THE SERVICE STABILITRAK LIGHT CAME ON. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP I GOT MY BRAKES REPLACED AT AND THE LIGHT WENT OFF AND THEY DIDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. THE LIGHT WENT OFF AND ON INTERMITTENTLY FOR WEEKS AND THEN FINALLY TURNED OFF. NEXT I STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS GETTING THE KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION AFTER TURNING THE CAR OFF. I WOULD HAVE TO TURN THE CAR BACK ON, PUT MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE, AND TURN IT OFF AGAIN TO GET THE KEY OUT SOMETIMES SEVERAL TIMES IN A ROW. NOW I DROVE MY CAR AND PARKED AND EVERYTHING WAS FINE AND THEN I TURNED IT ON A FEW HOURS LATER AND THE POWER STEERING FAILED. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAY THE POWER STEERING CONTROL MODULE IS BAD AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. MY ISSUES ARE THE EXACT SAME AS MANY OTHER DRIVERS HAVE NOTED AND MY CAR IS NOT PART OF A RECALL, BUT THE POWER STEERING SUDDENLY FAILING WITH NO WARNING LIGHT MONTHS AFTER THE DEALERSHIP SAID IT WAS FINE AND REPLACED BRAKES SEEMS ODD. THERE IS OBVIOUSLY A DEFECT TO THE POWER STEERING IN THE EQUINOX THAT'S LEADING TO ERRATIC WARNING LIGHTS, KEY REMOVAL DIFFICULTIES, AND POWER STEERING SUDDENLY GOING OUT. CHEVY NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING!

KEY GETS STUCK IN IGNITION , CURRENT AND ONGOING PROBLEM. INITIALLY DEALERS INSTRUCTIONS WHERE TO KEEP ALL OTHER KEYS OFF CHAINS WHICH WORKED FOR YEARS BUT NO LONGER WORKS RELIABLY

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED. IN ADDITION, THE STABILITRAK CONTROL AND CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE INTERMITTENT ELECTRONIC DISCONNECTION WAS IN THE STEERING COLUMN AND THE STEERING COLUMN NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THERE WERE NO WARRANTIES OR RECALLS ON THE VEHICLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 115,000.

I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S A TAKATA INFLATOR, BUT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE 2007 CHEVY EQUINOX, BUT, FOR SOME REASON THE RECALL DID NOT HAVE MY WIFE'S CAR'S VIN # REGARDING THIS RECALL. SO, HER CAR DID NOT RECEIVE A RECALL NOTICE! WHAT I'M UPSET ABOUT IS, THAT SHE HAS LOW MILEAGE ON HER CAR, AND HAD THE SAME PROBLEM, JUST RECENTLY, AND IT'S THE SAME MODEL AND YEAR, REGARDING THE RECALL, THAT DID NOT INVOLVE HER CAR! I WAS TOLD BY GM, THAT BECAUSE HER VIN # WAS NOT "IN" THE RECALL, THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THAT THEY COULD DO, BUT IF I WANTED TO, BECAUSE IT'S A SAFETY PROBLEM, THAT I COULD CONTACT YOU! AND "THEN" IF YOU TOLD THEM THAT IT WAS A SAFETY PROBLEM, WHICH IT IS, THAT YOU COULD THEN, GET IN TOUCH WITH GM, AND THEY WOULD TAKE CARE OF IT! SO, WHAT CAN BE DONE, THIS SHOULDN'T BE LIKE THIS!!! PLEASE HELP US TAKE CARE OF THIS SAFETY PROBLEM ON MY WIFE'S 2007 CHEVY EQUINOX IF YOU WOULD PLEASE! REGARDING THE NOTE BELOW, MY WIFE WAS SIMPLY DRIVING, AND THE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON, AND THAT WAS IT. WHEN I GOT IN TOUCH WITH GM, THEY DID TELL ME THAT THERE "WAS" A RECALL ON THIS, BUT BECAUSE MY WIFE'S EQUINOX DID NOT FALL INTO THEIR RECALL VIN #, THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THAT THEY COULD DO! IF IT WAS A DIFFERENT MODEL, YEAR, ETC. THEN I COULD UNDERSTAND OF COURSE, BUT NOT WHEN IT'S THE SAME CAR, AND MODEL, THAT THEY RECALLED!!! THANK YOU FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE, IN ANY WAY! *TR

THIS VEHICLE IS ONE OF SEVERAL THAT HAVE BEEN REPORTED TO HAVE PROBLEMS WITH WHEEL SPEED AND PSI SENSORS, WHICH THEN CAUSES THE TRACTION CONTROL TO BELIEVE COMPUTER WISE IT HAS NO TRACTION, THEREFORE THE LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON AND THE COMPUTER SOMETIMES SHUT THE TRACTION CONTROL OFF WHEN IT NEEDS TO BE ON. IT ALSO HAS AIRBAG TROUBLE WITH THE PASSENGER SEAT, ALSO LIKE THE RECALL. HOWEVER, DESPITE THE FACT 2007'S WERE ISSUED THIS RECALL, IT'S SAYING MY 'VIN' DOES APPLY TO THESE RECALLS. FIND THAT HARD TO BELIEVE WHEN THESE THINGS ARE MESSED UP. JUST WANT GM MOTORS TO AWKNOWLEDGE IT'S POSSIBLE THAT THIS VEHICLE WAS MISMANUFACTURED.

GASOLINE LEAK/FIRE HAZARD, CHARACTERISTIC OF THE 2012 RECALL OF EXACT MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR FOR SPECIFIC VEHICLES SOLD OR REGISTERED IN CERTAIN STATES. MY VEHICLE IS EXPERIENCING SAME EXACT ISSUE AS PRECIOUS RECALL WITH GASOLINE ODOR/LEAK.

PASSENGER SEAT AIR BAG SENSOR IS DEFECTIVE. THEY WANT OVER $1,000 TO FIX IT. LOOKING ONLINE THERE ARE MANY CUSTOMER COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS ISSUE AND SOME RECALLS BUT SAYS MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT ONE IN THE RECALL. WAS COMING ON AND OFF...NOW OFF ALL THE TIME! I HAVE PAID TO FIX LEAK FROM SUNROOF THAT IS ALSO A COMMON ISSUE....RECALL DID FIX FAULTY FUEL LEAK. HELP PLEASE!

MY DAUGHTERS 2007 EQUINOX , HAS THE WELL KNOWN, PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG SENSOR FAILURE PROBLEM. IN.CASE OF AN ACCIDENT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY. THIS IS AN $800 +/- FIX. SEVERAL THOUSAND EQUINOX, TORRENT, SATURN AND OTHER GM CARS BUILT ON THIS PLATFORM ARE AFFECTED. SEVERAL MODEL YEARS SUFFER FROM THIS AILMENT. "FAILURE OF THE AIR BAG TO DEPLOY CAN RESULT IN INCREASED INJURIES OR DEATH." THE SATURN SKY AND PONTIAC SOLSTICE HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM AND IT WAS CORRECTED RECENTLY UNDER RECALL. IT IS MY OPINION THAT THESE VEHICLES SHOULD BE RECALLED AND THIS PROBLEM CORRECTED.

POWER STEERING QUIT WORKING

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT FUMES WERE EMERGING FROM THE DASHBOARD AREA OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT HAD TO OPEN THE WINDOWS TO AIR OUT THE VEHICLE CABIN. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DEACON JONES AUTO GROUP (1115 NORTH BRIGHT LEAF BLVD, SMITHFIELD, NC 27577) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE HEAD GASKET AND HEATER CORE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 212,998.

PASSENGER AIRBAG SENSOR DOES NOT REGISTER WITH AIRBAG CONTROL MODULE. BROUGHT IT TO CHEVY FOR REPAIR. 600 BUCKS LATER AND A NEW SENSOR, AIRBAG STILL ISN'T RESPONDING. CHEVY TELLS ME I NEED A NEW AIRBAG CONTROL MODULE FOR 700 BUCKS, HAD ALREADY SPENT 1300 ON THAT VISIT. AIRBAG DOES NOT REGISTER PASSENGER, COMPUTER WILL NOT RESET AND SYNC WITH CONTROL MODULE. THIS SHOULDN'T REQUIRE THE ENTIRE MODULE TO BE REPLACED, NOR SHOULD I HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS SINCE THIS I'VE HEARD/READ NUMEROUS CASES ALL DEALING WITH THIS ISSUE ON THE SAME MODEL AND APPARENTLY GM REFUSES TO RECALL (ASIDE FROM THE AIRBAG REPROGRAM WHEN IT FIRST RELEASED) HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM A DEALER, WHO SAID THEY FIXED IT BEFORE I PICKED IT UP. DOES WORK INTERMITTENTLY, WHEN A LARGER PERSON SITS THERE, AIR BAG DOES REGISTER.

EVEN THOUGH MY VIN DOES NOT COME UP AS HAVING AN ISSUE WITH THE PASSENGER AIR BAG DETECTOR IN MY SEAT, IT DOES NOT DETECT WHEN SOMEONE IS SITTING IN THE SEAT AND WILL NOT COME ON.

THE VEHICLE HAS STABLE TRACK LINK ERROR AND WILL NOT GO AWAY! PARTS HAVE BEEN REPLACED, BOTH AFTERMARKET AND SWAPPED FOR GENUINE GM AND STILL THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT IS ON. THE FUEL GAUGE DOESN'T WORK PROPERLY AND WILL JUST AT RANDOM SHOW OVER THE FULL MARK OR UNDER THE EMPTY MARK WHEN I HAVE PURCHASED FUEL ON THE SAME DAY. THE THROTTLE BODY HAD TO BE REPLACED AT 45,000 MILES WHEN THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOST POWER AND JUST SAT ON A BUSY ROAD.

THE LOCAL DEALER (JD BYRIDER, 20941 EUCLID AVE, EUCLID OH) AND THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE, BUT NO ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 95,000.

MY PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG DOES NOT TELL WHEN SOMEBODY SITTING THERE SO IF I HAVE AN ACCIDENT THE AIRBAG WILL NOT GO OFF I DON'T THINK THE SENSOR IS WORKING IT HAS BEEN REPLACED ONCE ALREADY. MY KEY GETS STUCK IN THE IGNITION I HAVE TO WAIT FOR IT TO CLICK TO GET IT OUT OF THE IGNITION

"TAKATA RECALL" STABILITY TRACTION CONTROL INDICATOR LIGHTS. NO WARNING FOR BRAKE PROBLEM. THE BRAKES LOCKED UP AND WOULDN'T STOP OR SLOW THE CAR BEFORE ENTERING A CURVE ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY.

AS MANY OTHERS, I NOW HAVE A LEAKING FUEL SENDING UNIT ON OUR 2007 CHEVY EQUINOX. MANY PEOPLE HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM AND CHEVY CHOOSES NOT TO ADDRESS IT FOR US BY ISSUING A RECALL. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS RUNNING THE FUEL SYSTEM IS PRESSURIZED WHICH CAUSES FUEL TO SPRAY OUT OF A FAULTY JOINT WHICH IS MADE OF PLASTIC THAT CRACKS, THE FUEL THEN DRIPS DOWN FROM THE TANK AS IT PLEASES AROUND THE EXHAUST AND ON TO THE FLOOR.

CAR SLOWS DOWN , BRAKES LOCK UP AND GET REAL HARD, CAR WANT MOVE. TRY TO PUT IT IN DRIVE, BRAKES TO HARD , WANT MOVE AT ALL. LET IT SET FOR 35 MIN. THEN CAR WILL MOVE. VERY DANGEROUS, WHEN CAR SLOW DOWN AND JUST STOP, SOMEONE ALMOST HIT ME

I PURCHASED A 2007 CHEVY EQUINOX FROM A PRIVATE PARTY BACK IN JANUARY BUT DUE TO A MIX-UP WITH THE TITLE AND THE PREVIOUS OWNER I COULD NOT TITLE THE CAR AND START DRIVING IT UNTIL MARCH. I'VE NOTICED LATELY A STRONG SMELL OF GAS AND A VERY LOUD CLUNKING NOISE FROM THE DRIVER SIDE FRONT WHEEL. I TOOK IT TO A LOCAL SHOP IN MY TOWN AND WAS TOLD I HAD A GAS LEAK AT THE TOP OF THE TANK AND THAT THE SWAY BAR LINKAGE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED . IN DOING MY RESEARCH I FOUND THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE FUEL LEAK ON THE 2007 EQUINOXES AND THAT MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE SWAY BAR LINKAGE GOING BAD AND THE SERVICE STABLE TRACK LIGHT CONSTANTLY STAYING ON. I ALSO HAVE THE PROBLEM STATING ALL WHEEL DRIVE OFF FLASHING ON MY SCREEN. I FOUND THAT MANY PEOPLE PUT THEIR VIN NUMBERS IN THE SEARCH WINDOW AND FOUND THEIRS NOT TO BE PART OF THE RECALL BUT I'M WONDERING WHY IF MORE THAN JUST THE PREVIOUS RECALLED VEHICLES ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE WOULDN'T THEY WANT ANOTHER RECALL ISSUED FOR THE ONES THAT HAVEN'T BEEN REPAIRED. I JUST TOOK IT TO A GM DEALER TODAY IN MY HOMETOWN AND THEY WANT OVER $1,400 TO FIX JUST THE FUEL LEAKAGE PROBLEM I NEED TO KNOW WHAT GM IS GOING TO DO ABOUT IT. I DON'T HAVE 1400 EXTRA DOLLARS TO FIX THIS GAS LEAK AND I'M SCARED TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE FOR FEAR OF IT STARTING ON FIRE.

CAR SMELLS OF GASOLINE AND HAS TROUBLE STARTING ON THE FIRST ATTEMPT. CAR WILL START ON SECOND ATTEMPT BUT HAS A VERY STRONG GAS ODOR. AFTER TAKING IT TO A LOCAL MECHANIC, THE CAR WAS DIAGNOSED AS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND IS CONFIRMED TO BE LEAKING GASOLINE. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS EXACT MAKE AND MODEL BUT IS LISTED AS ONLY IMPACTING CERTAIN STATES (ARIZONA, CALIFORNIA, NEVADA, TEXAS) BUT I'M IN NEW JERSEY AND HAVE SEEN IT ALSO REPORTED IN OHIO, SOUTH CAROLINA AND NEW YORK. THIS RECALL NEEDS TO BE EXPANDED AND CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS!!!

AT 100,000 MILES, THE PASSENGER AIRBAG SENSOR FAILED AND CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO INDICATE THAT THE AIRBAG WAS NOT ACTIVE, EVEN WHEN A PASSENGER WAS IN THE FRONT, PASSENGER SEAT. I TOOK IT TO THE AUTHORIZED DEALER AND REFERENCED # 07V344000 RECALL BUT WAS TOLD THAT MY VIN DID NOT FALL WITHIN THE RECALL, DESPITE THE SIMILARITY OF THE ISSUES INVOLVED.

THE CAR BEGAN TO SMELL OF GAS AFTER RUNNING AND STARTED TO CUT OUT. TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC AND THEY REPORT A CRACK IN THE FUEL PUMP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHILE PULLING OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY, THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT HAD TO APPLY EXTREME FORCE TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. THE VEHICLE WAS UNABLE TO BE DRIVEN DUE TO THE FAILURE AND WAS TOWED TO FINDLAY CHEVROLET BUICK GMC (2565 LAUGHLIN VIEW DR, BULLHEAD CITY, AZ 86429, (928) 754-3400) FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING AND REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT SHOWS NOT ON ALL THE TIME-WITH OR WITHOUT PASSENGER IN SEAT. MESSAGE TO SERVICE AIRBAGS ON ALL THE TIME. NOW SEATBELT LIGHT IS FLASHING EVEN WHEN IN USE. SERVICE STABILTRACK LIGHT COMES ON AND OFF. READING ALL THE OTHER COMMENTS I SEE THIS IS A COMMON COMPLAINT. RECENTLY HAD MY CAR IN TO REPLACE FUEL PUMP THAT WAS A RECALL FOR OTHERS BUT A "SPECIAL REPAIR" FOR MY CAR. TOLD DEALER ABOUT PROBLEMS WITH AIRBAG AND STABILITRAK AND WAS TOLD IT WOULD COST ABOUT $150.00 EACH TO DO THE DIAGNOSTIC TESTS. WHAT IS IT GOING TO TAKE FOR THESE PROBLEMS TO BECOME RECALLS FOR ALL THE AFFECTED CARS?

THE FRONT SEAT PASSENGER AIR BAG WILL NOT COME ON WHEN SOMEONE SITS IN THE SEAT. I GET A SERVICE AIR BAG SYSTEM ON THE DRIVER INFO CENTER. TOOK TO DEALER WAS TOLD COMPUTER SHOWS CODES B0081 AND B0074. WAS TOLD PASSENGER PRESENCE SYSTEM, NAMELY THE SEAT SENSOR WAS BAD AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. REPAIR ESTIMATED AT $1100.00. THIS IS A COMMON COMPLAINT IN GM VEHICLES. THE VEHICLE IS DESIGNED TO HAVE THE AIRBAG DEPLOY DURING A COLLISION CONSIDERING THE USE OF SAFETY BELTS AND DEFORMATION OF THE VEHICLE'S STRUCTURE. SERVICE AIR BAG SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT COMES ON AND STAYS ON WHEN EVER THE IGNITION IS TURNED TO THE ON POSITION. IT DOES NOT MATTER IF ANYONE OR ANYTHING IS IN/ON THE SEAT, OR IF VEHICLE IS STANDING STILL OR IN MOTION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE VEHICLE STARTED TO OVERHEAT. THE VEHICLE WAS PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED BEFORE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THERE WAS A BLOWN HEAD GASKET. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 96,000.

WHEN ADULT PASSENGER SITTING IN RIGHT FRONT PASSENGER SEAT, THE AIR BAG LIGHT DOESNT TURN ON.

AT A HUNDRED THOUSAND MILES MY CAR DECIDES TO HAVE NO HEAT SO TAKE IT TO A MECHANIC AND HE TELLS ME IT'S A BLOWN HEAD GASKET 2500 TO FIX I BOUGHT THIS CAR BRAND NEW IN 2007 KEPT UP WITH ALL THE MECHANICAL ISSUES OIL CHANGES THE CAR HAS BEEN GOOD OTHER THAN THIS THIS SEEMS TO BE THE PROBLEM WITH THESE EQUINOXES AS I READ ALL THE REVIEWS

VEHICLE HEATS UP AND CAUSES WATER HOSES TO OVER HEAT AND BUST UP. THIS CAN CAUSE A SERIOUS BURN INJURY. APPARENTLY THIS IS A PROBLEM CAUSES BECAUSE OF THE HEAD GASKETS THAT WERE USED.THE GASKETS GET DAMAGED AND START CAUSING THE LINES TO FILL UP WITH AIR CAUSING ALOT OF PRESSURE TO.MOTOR AND THEN OVER HEATS.ALL THE LINES THAT BRING WATER TO THE MOTER BUSTED AND VEHICLE WASNT EVEN SHOWING TO BE HOT. VEHICLE STILL WORKS BUT CANT BE USED BECAUSE IT OVERHEATS. LINES WERE REPLACED TWICE BUT WILL BUST IF TRUCK IS TURNED ON . HAVE READ ONLINE THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO SEVEREL OWNERS BUT NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE. HAVE ALSO XONTACTED CHEVROLET BUT THEY SAID THEY CANT DO ANYTHING YET. WE WERE ON EXPRESSWAY GOING HOME

HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?TIME_CONTINUE=10&V=GDJL1_ROFHE PLEASE WATCH THE YOUTUBE LINK ABOVE TO CLEARLY SEE WHAT HAPPENED. I WAS DRIVING ON A ROAD WITH A 40 MPH SPEED LIMIT. FORTUNATELY NOBODY WAS IN FRONT OF ME FOR QUITE A WHILE BECAUSE THIS VERY EASILY COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A VERY DANGEROUS ACCIDENT. I WAS BEHIND A CAR GOING UNDER THE SPEED LIMIT SO I CHANGED LANES AND SAW THAT A CAR NOW BEHIND ME IN THE LANE I HAD MOVED INTO WAS DRIVING FAST SO I FLOORED MY ACCELERATOR TO MATCH SPEED AND AVOID CUTTING THEM OFF. AT THE POINT WHEN I BACKED OFF THE GAS I NOTICED THE PEDAL WAS STUCK FLOORED AND I WAS ACCELERATING ALARMINGLY FAST. ONLY BY PUMPING THE BREAKS REPEATEDLY AND KICKING THE GAS PEDAL DID I KNOCK IT LOOSE. THE INCIDENT PROBABLY LASTED 2-5 SECONDS AND I PROBABLY REACHED 50-55 MPH. IT WAS VERY FORTUNATE THAT NOBODY WAS AHEAD OF ME FOR A GOOD WAYS BUT IT WAS REALLY TERRIFYING. IF I HAD BEEN APPROACHING AN INTERSECTION OR RED LIGHT OR CROSSWALK OR JUST TRAFFIC UP AHEAD THIS COULD HAVE RESULTED IN AN ACCIDENT. I CHECKED FOR OBSTRUCTIONS AND THERE WASN'T ANY JUNK DOWN AROUND THE GAS PEDAL. I STARTED TO THINK ABOUT MY FLOOR MAT AND REMEMBERED THAT I HAD REPLACED IT RECENTLY WITH A THICK RUBBER GOODYEAR MAT. THE BOTTOM OF THE MAT READS "DRIVER SIDE," "50-1000210," AND "JH 1700 K443. PHOTOS ATTACHED BELOW. THE BOTTOM OF THE GAS PEDAL HAD BECOME CAUGHT IN A GROOVE IN THE FLOOR MAT AND STUCK PRESSED ALL THE WAY DOWN. PHOTOS OF THE DOCUMENTATION ON THE FLOOR MAT ATTACHED BELOW.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL FUEL ODOR COMING FROM THE VEHICLE.

MY KEY WILL NOT GO INTO THE OFF POSITION ON THE IGNITION TO REMOVE IT I HALF TO WAIT UNTIL I HEAR A CLICKIN NOISE BEFORE IT WILL GO TO OFF AN ABLE TO REMOVE ALSO I WAS DRIVING DOWN HILL AN MY CAR SHUT IT SELF OFF I HAD NO POWER OR COULDN'T STEER MY BRAKES WAS STIFF I GOT IT TO STOP AN MY CAR HAD SHUT OFF ON ME WHILE I WAS DRIVING DOWN HILL

I ALMOST GOT KILLED WHEN POWER STEERING STOPPED WORKING ALL OF A SUDDEN. NO WARNING AT ALL. I WAS ON MY WAY HOME FROM SHOPPING. GOOD THING THIS HAPPENED TO ME AND NOT MY WIFE SHE WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO CONTROL THE EQUINOX.

AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON ALL OF THE TIME. I TOOK IT TO RK CHEVY WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED FROM TO HAVE THE FUEL PUMP REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY AND THEY DID NOTHING ABOUT AIR BAG LIGHT AND SAID DO NOT WORRY ABOUT IT.

1. THE AIRBAG SENSORY ON THE PASSENGER SIDE GOES ON AND OFF DEPENDING HOW THE PERSON IS SEATED OR HOW MUCH THE PERSON WEIGHS. 2. THE DEFROSTING/HEATING MECHANISM DOESN'T PRODUCE WARM ENOUGH AIR TO CLEAR THE WINDOWS FOR CLEAR VISIBILITY..

GOOD MORNING, I AM WRITING FROM GUATEMALA CITY, GUATEMALA C.A. I BOUGHT, FROM THE LOCAL DEALER, COFIO STAHL, THE EQUINOX 2007 ON JUNE 2007. APPROXIMATELY 5 YEARS AGO MY VEHICLE SHOWED AN AIRBAG SYSTEM ' PASSENGER SENSING PROBLEM, WHICH WAS OVERLOOKED BY THE DEALER, EVEN THOUGH THEY HAD MY CAR ON THEIR WORKSHOPS AT LEAST TWICE A YEAR SINCE 2008 FOR MAINTENANCE AND OIL CHANGE. RECENTLY I FOUND ON THE WEB THE FMVSS NONCOMPLIANCE RECALL, BULLETIN 07174 DATED AUGUST 2007, WHICH CLEARLY INDICATES THAT THE PROBLEM OF MY VEHICLE IS DUE TO A GM SAFETY RECALL. HAVING HANDED THE BULLETIN TO THE LOCAL GM DEALER, THEY RELUCTANTLY PERFORMED THE SERVICE PROCEDURE AS INDICATED, HOWEVER THE PROBLEM WAS NOT SOLVED AND THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO PURSUE WITH THE SOLUTION AT NO CHARGE, NEITHER WILL THEY RECEIVE MY CAR AS PARTIAL PAYMENT FOR ANOTHER VEHICLE. I TOOK THE LIBERTY OF WRITING TO YOU IN THE HOPE TO FIND A SOLUTION, SINCE NOW I AM STUCK WITH A CAR THAT THE DEALER WOULD NOT RECEIVE AND I CANNOT SELL IF THE PROBLEM IS NOT SOLVED. THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR REPLY

THERE SEEMS TO BE A LEAK IN THE FUEL LINE. THERE IS A SMELL OF GAS INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE WHEN STATIONARY AND WHILE DRIVING, WHICH BEGAN IN APPROXIMATELY MARCH 2017.

LESS THAN 4,000 MILES DRIVEN AFTER I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AS IT WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT OF 2ND GEAR. THE HEATER CORE ALSO EXPLODED ON THE WAY TO THE DEALERSHIP TO ASSESS THE TRANSMISSION ISSUES. AROUND 20-25,000 MILES AFTER PURCHASE THE ENGINE COOLANT TEMP GAUGE STOPPED REPORTING TEMPERATURES CORRECTLY AND WOULD REDLINE EVEN IF THE CAR WAS OFF FOR OVER 2 DAYS IT WOULD START UP WAY ABOVE THE NORMAL OPERATING TEMPERATURE. THE FUEL GUAGE NO LONGER CORRECTLY INDICATES HOW MUCH GAS IS LEFT IN THE TANK AND WILL NOT MOVE OFF OF EMPTY EVEN AFTER PUMPING 13 GALLONS INTO THE TANK. VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AT A RED LIGHT WHEN HEATER CORE BLEW OUT. VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN DURING TRANSMISSION, TEMPERATURE, AND GAS GAUGE FAILURES.

BRAKE PEDAL KICKS BACK WHEN SLOWING DOWN TO BREAK AT SLOWER SPEEDS. ABS SEEMS TO NOT BE WORKING PROPERLY WHEN DRIVING AT SLOWER SPEED (5-10MPH) AND BREAK PEDAL DOES NOT GO DOWN/PRESS DOWN WHEN BREAKING. BREAKS SQUEAL WHEN STARTING TO DRIVE

INACTIVE AIR BAGS. LIGHTS CONTINUALLY STAY ON THAT AIR BAGS ARE NOT WORKING. IS THIS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT?

"TAKATA RECALL" MY POWER STEERING QUIT UNTIL I STOPPED AND TURNED THE ENGINE OF AND STARTED IT AGAIN. VERY SCARY THING. MY CAR ONLY HAS 45000 MILES ON IT.

OUR 2007 CHEVY EQUINOX FUEL PUMP RETURN STARTED LEAKING FUEL ON THE TOP OF THE FUEL PUMP CAUSING FUEL TO LEAK ON THE GROUND AND RELEASES STRONG GAS FUMES WHILE PARKED IN OUR GARAGE. THIS VEHICLE IS UNDER CURRENT SAFETY RECALL IN OTHER STATES BUT NOT IN INDIANA. WHY ARE ONLY SOME STATES UNDER RECALL BUT NOT INDIANA?

I STARTED SMELLING GAS ODOR WHEN EXITING THE VEHICLE , I CHECKED AROUND THE VEHICLE DID NOT SEE ANY GAS SPILLING ANYWHERE, CHECKED UNDER THE VEHICLE NOTICED THE FUEL TANK WAS WET ON THE BACKSIDE , THE GAS IS COMING FROM THE TOP OF THE FUEL TANK..I NOTICED THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS MODEL VEHICLE AND CHECKED AND SAID THAT MY VEHICLE WAS NOT UNDER THE RECALL...WHY? IT SOUNDS LIKE THE SAME THING EVERYONE ELSE IS HAVING THE SAME THING HAPPEN AND THE RECALL IS FIXING THE PROBLEM..

MY CAR JUST RECENTLY STARTED TO SMELL LIKE GAS. AT FIRST, IT WAS A FAINT SMELL. NOW IT IS STRONGER. I CAN STILL DRIVE THE VEHICLE BUT I FEEL AS IF IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD. I HAVE TWO SMALL CHILDREN THAT RIDE IN THIS VEHICLE. MY GAS METER STILL WORKS AND MY RANGE IS ACCURATE BUT THE GAS SMELL IS BECOMING VERY OVERWHELMING.

I HAVE HAD A 2005 AND A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX BOTH WERE IN ACCIDENTS AND THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY . THE 2005 WAS A REAR END CRASH THE CAR THAT HIT ME WAS TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH. THE SECOND ACCIDENT WAS A FRONTAL CRASH I SWERVED TO MISS HITTING A DOG AND CHILDREN GOING ON THE ROAD. THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP AND HIT A TREE. I HAVE HAD 3 EQUINOX ALL HAVE IGNITION SWITCH PROBLEMS. THE ONE I HAVE NOW HAS MAJOR TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS.IT HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP NOW FOR 8 WEEKS.

TRANSMISSION WENT BAD AT 100 THOUSAND MILES BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR 8 WEEKS NOW.SHOP MANAGER SAYS THEY ARE HAVING A HARD TIME FINDING PARTS FOR THE TRANSMISSION.

I WENT TO GOOGLE AND LOOKED UP THE RECALLS FOR MY VEHICLE. AND THOSE 2 RECALLS LISTED AT THE TOP ARE 2 OF THE PROBLEMS IM HAVING WITH MY EQUINOX. I CALLED CHEVY CORPORATE AND THEY TOLD ME MY VEHICLE VIN NUMBER IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. IF MY VEHICLE IS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS AS THE ONE WITH THE RECALL, THEY SHOULD EXPAND THE RECALL TO COVER THE REST OF THE VEHICLES AFFECTED.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND THE MY CAR HAS NO RECALL, IT IS A 2007 CHEVY EQUINOX, AND IT LOOKS TO ME THAT THERE ARE 4 RECALLS FOR 2007 CHEVY EQUINOX. MY CAR HAS A SERVICE AIRBAG MESSAGE THAT COMES UP, AND IT HAS FAILED SAFETY DUE TO THIS MESSAGE. I AM READING THE RECALL, AND IT STATES THAT IT NEEDS TO REPROGRAM THE SEAT'S ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT. I BROUGHT TO A SHOP, AND THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT THE MECHANIC SAID. THAT I WOULD NEED TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER TO HAVE THE AIRBAG COMPUTER REPROGRAMMED. I NEED THIS DONE WITH NO EXPENSE TO ME.

THE VEHICLE HAS STABLE TRACK LINK ERROR AND WILL NOT GO AWAY, ALSO THE FUEL GUAGE DOESN'T WORK PROPERLY. THE AIRBAG IS NOT WORKING TO PROTECT MY PASSENGERS IN THE FRONT SEAT.

TRACTION CONTROL ANTILOCK BRAKES SELF APPLY OFTEN EVEN IN HEAVY TRAFFIC.

NO BULLETINS FOUND, SYSTEM WORKING AS DESIGNED. THEN AGAIN 9/28/11 WE TOOK IT IN AGAIN AND COMPLAINED THE SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON INTERMITTENTLY. THEY REPLACED THE PPS MODULE. WE HAD TO PAY LABOR AND FACTORY WARRANTY DEDUCTIBLE. I SEE BY YOU RECALL PAGE THERE WAS A RECALL #07V344000 ON THE PASSENGER SENSOR AND OR CALIBRATION. IF THERE WAS A RECALL WHY WERE WE CHARGED TO REPLACE A DEFAULT BY THE MAKER? NOW HERE WE ARE IN DEC 2016 AND NOW WE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AGAIN.

THE PASSENGER SEAT AIR BAG SENSOR FAILED AND TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM THE ENTIRE SEAT CUSHION AND ELECTRONIC MODULE HAS TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS AN OVER $800 REPAIR AND MY DAUGHTER CANT AFFORD TO HAVE IT FIXED. ACCORDING TO THE DEALER TECH THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM ON SEVERAL THOUSAND EQUINOX, TORRENT AND SATURN ION VEHICLES.

PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG WORKED INTERMITTENTLY WHILE PASSENGER WAS SEATED IN SEAT. SOMETIMES ON WHEN NO ONE SEATED AND OFF WHEN SOMEONE SEATED. NOW CHECK/SERVICE AIRBAGS LIGHTS ARE ON AND PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG STAYS OFF WHEN SOMEONE SEATED. I AM NOT SURE IF ANY OF THE AIRBAGS AT THIS POINT WILL WORK BECAUSE ALL AIRBAG LIGHTS ARE ON.

I BOUGHT A USED 2007EQUINOX LAST YEAR (MAY 2015) I KEPT SMELLING GAS AND IT WAS GETTING WORSE, DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT THE RECALL, TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC WHICH COST ME $965.00 TO REPLACE. IF THIS VEHICLE WENT THROUGH THE RECALL AND A FUEL PUMP WAS REPLACED, SHOULD IT HAVE BEEN LEAKING AGAIN AFTER 4 YEARS. IT WOULD HESITATE ON STARTING AND DRIVING AND PARKING THE GAS FUMES WERE SO BAD, I KNEW I HAD A LEAK SOMEWHERE, IT WAS LEAKING IN MOTION AND WHEN STATIONARY, WHEN I WOULD PARK IT AND WALK ABOUT THE PARK, THE GAS FUMES WERE THE WORST THERE, STILL COULD SMELL THE GAS IN MY CAR AND OUTSIDE BY THE DRIVERS SIDE AND PASSENGER SIDE DOORS.

FUEL LEAKING FROM THE RETURN PORT ON THE FUEL PUMP.

FUEL SENSOR LEVEL IS READING ERRATIC AFTER I PUT GAS IN MY VEHICLE. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND THE FUEL GAUGE GOES FROM FULL TO EMPTY BACK TO FULL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, THE STABILITRAK, TRACTION CONTROL, AND ENGINE WARNING INDICATORS REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE PERFORMED AS IF THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WERE ENGAGED. THE VEHICLE WAS DIAGNOSED; HOWEVER, THE DETAILS WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 73,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR RANDOMLY ILLUMINATED.

THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 151,000.

WHEN I HAVE A PASSENGER IN THE SEAT THE AIRBAG NEVER COMES ON AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON AND TELLS ME IT NEEDS SERVICE. ALSO ALL MY GAUGES ARE ALL OUT OF WACK NOT SURE IF IT IS A RECALL OR NOT ONCE I HIT 100,000 MILES ALL THESE THINGS CAME ABOUT. ALSO THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE FUEL SYSTEM AND AT THE TIME I DID NOT HAVE A PROBLEM AS OF YET, ON 9/29/15 I THEN SMELLED THE GAS AND CALLED MK SMITH CHEVROLET TO SEE IF THERE WERE ANY RECALLS ON THIS AND THEY TOLD ME NO, SO I DID TAKE IT SOMEWHERE ELSE TO BE FIXED DUE TO IT BEING CHEAPER FOR ME AND GOT IT FIXED AND PAID $633.60. I HAVE DOCUMENT FOR THAT. NOW MY KEY IN THE IGNITION DOES NOT COME OUT AND I HEAR A CLICKING NOISE BY THE IGNITION I'M NOT SURE IF THAT AS WELL IS A RECALL ON THE EQUINOX 2007. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF ANY OF THESE PROBLEMS ARE RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE. I JUST HAVE READ ALL THESE OTHER COMPLAINTS ON THE SAME ISSUES ON THE EQUINOX 2007.

NOTICED THE SMELL OF GAS COMING FROM MY CAR. ALSO TROUBLE STARTING. CHECKED GAS CAP AND WAS FINE. DROVE AROUND THE REST OF THE DAY STILL VERY STRONG GAS SMELL AND ISSUES WHEN STARTING THE CAR. GOT HOME AND LOOKED UP INFO AND SEE THAT THERE ARE SEVERAL ISSUES. BUT OF COURSE MY VEHICLE IS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST. THERE WAS AN OBVIOUS PROBLEM BUT ONLY CERTAIN VEHICLES WERE RECALLED NOW MINE IS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. SAFELY RISK AND NOT A CHEAP FIX.

FUEL LEAK FROM THE TANK

ANYTIME A PASSENGER IS IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT THE AIRBAG DOES NOT TURN ON. THE AIRBAG OFF LIGHT REMAINS ILLUMINATED.

THE SPEEDOMETER ON MY 2007 CHEVY EQUINOX STARTED GOING CRAZY. I'M DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT 30 MPH BUT THE SPEEDOMETER SAYS I'M DOING 60 MPH. WHEN I'M ON THE HIGHWAY DOING 55 MPH, IT BOUNCES BETWEEN 90 TO 120 MPH. I'VE EVEN BEEN PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY DOING 120 MPH. SOMETHING IS SERIOUSLY WRONG. I'VE FOUND OUT ABOUT NUMEROUS OTHER COMPLAINTS WITH OTHER CHEVY'S DOING THE SAME THING BUT CHEVY DOESN'T WANT TO INCLUDE THE EQUINOX. I WANT TO KNOW WHAT MY NEXT STEP IS GOING TO BE.

I GOT THIS CAR FROM FREDERI K AUTO CENTER IN MARCH. EVER SINCE THEN I HAD PROBLEMS. I TOLD THEM I LET THEM. KNKW ABOUT THEM AND THEY ALWAYS SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH IT. THE ONE TIME THEY WERE SUPOOSE TO FIX SOMETHING THEY HAD THE CAR FOR TWO DAYS AND RHEY PUT TAPE ALL OVER THE HOSES RO STOP THE LEAKS. THEY ALSO FAILED THE MD INSPECTION CONSIDERING MY WIRES ARE MELTED TOGETHER AND MY IGNITION DOESNT WORK RIGHT WHICH WOULDNT HAVE PASS. THEN THEY REPO IT WHEN I WQSNT LATE ON MY PAYEMNT BECAUSE I SAID I WANT IT FIXED SINXE IT WAS SOLS THAT WAY OR I WILL FILE A COMPALINT. EVERYTHING QAS ILLEGAL THATBTHEY DID.

OUR 2007 CHEVY EQUINOX HAD CONDENSATION IN THE HEADLIGHTS, WHICH THEY WERE REPLACED WHEN WE BOUGHT THE VEHICLE FROM THE DEALERSHIP MAY 20, 2014. IN OCTOBER 2015, CONDENSATION BEGAN BUILDING UP AGAIN IN THE DRIVER'S SIDE LENS. WE REPLACED A BULB IN NOVEMBER AND IN FEBRUARY, ENDED UP REPLACING THE ENTIRE COMPONENT DUE TO CONDENSATION GATHERING IN THE HEADLIGHT, TO THE COST OF OVER $400! THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A DESIGN FLAW FOR THIS VEHICLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE STATIONARY, THE VEHICLE LEAKED FUEL FROM THE REAR PASSENGER WHEEL WELDS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL ODOR ENTERED THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 62,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

VEHICLE PURCHASED 2014 WITH 113,000 MILES. SINCE, KEY IS DIFFICULT TO REMOVE FROM IGNITION (DOESN'T RECOGNIZE THE VEHICLE IS IN PARK). RPM GAGE RARELY WORKS WHEN IN MOTION. PASSENGER AIR BAG TURNS OFF AND ON WHEN A PERSON SITS IN IT OF ANY WEIGHT/AGE.

AIRBAG LIGHT, TPMS, STABILITY LIGHT, HEADLIGHT AND TAILLIGHTS GO OUT ALOT. CALLED CHEVY PLACE AOUT RECALLS AND WAS TOLD MINE IS NOT RECALLED BUT PROBLEMS WITH MY CAR ARE SAME AS RECALL. THEY FIXED GAS LINE RECALL, TOOK IT TO WHERE I BOUGHT IT 2 OR 3 TIMES BUT NEVER GOT FIXED. MY SPEEDOMETER ALSO BEEN OUT SINCE GETTING CAR BRAKE LIGHTS ALWAYS COMING ON AS WELL, OTHER PROBLEMS AS WELL. DOESNT SEEM CHEVY MAKES A GOOD VEHICLE.

MY VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY. MY VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN THE CARPORT FOR A FEW WEEKS. WHEN I CAN BACK TO THE VEHICLE IT WAS COVERED IN MOLD. IT WAS ALL OVER THE DASHBOARD AND THE SEATS. I LOOKED ONLINE AND A LOT OF CONSUMERS WERE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. THERE IS A WATER LEAK. THE SPARE TIRE WELL HAS A LOT OF WATER IN IT. GM HAS A DOCUMENT ID NUMBER 2198426 DESCRIBING HOW TO FIX THIS WATER LEAK. I FEEL SINCE A LOT OF CONSUMERS ARE GOING THROUGH THIS; THEN IT SHOULD BE RECALLED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR A ROUTINE WHEEL ALIGNMENT, THE VEHICLE DISPLAYED OTHER FAILURES. WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE TRACTION CONTROL WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS DIAGNOSED BY AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC THAT THE STABILIZER TRACK FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS INOPERABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 100,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG LIGHT FAILED TO ILLUMINATE. THE FAILURE OCCURRED CONSTANTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE PASSENGER SEAT ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 07V344000 (AIR BAGS). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 94,000.

THE FAILURE OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING, BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE FOUND. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A TRANSMISSION SPECIALIST WHO STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS NOT DUE TO THE TRANSMISSION. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 90,000.

AIRBAG INDICATOR LIGHT HAS COME ON AND WILL NOT TURN OFF. CAR HAS BEEN CHECKED & UNABLE TO FIND PROBLEM. NOT SURE AIRBAGS WILL WORK IF IN ACCIDENT

THE IGNITION SWITCH/LOCK CYLINDER IS STICKING AND WON'T TURN SOMETIMES, CAUSING THE CAR TO NOT START.

WHILE DRIVING EITHER ON CITY OR FREEWAY THE CAR STARTED SHAKING, JERKING, AND VIBRATING REALLY BADLY WHEN APPLIED PRESSURE TO THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT GAIN SPEED, INSTEAD IT WOULD SLOW DOWN AND IT FELT LIKE GAS WAS NOT GOING TROUGH. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. SOMETIMES THE KEY WILL NOT COME OUT OF THE IGNITION AND I HAVE TO TURN THE CAR BACK ON THEN TURN THE WHEEL, BUT SOMETIMES IT TAKES MORE THAN THIS TO GET THE KEY OUT FROM THE IGNITION SWITCH. I HAD VEHICLE TOWED TO A CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG OR COULD DUPLICATE PROBLEM. WHEN I PICKED UP THE CAR I HAD DRIVE IT 15 MILES AND THE CAR STARTED DOING THE SAME THING.

A FEW MONTHS AGO, I TOOK MY CAR INTO THE DEALER TO DIAGNOSE A CHECK AIRBAG LIGHT. $122 LATER, MY VEHICLE WAS FOUND TO HAVE A "FAULTY PASSENGER PRESENCE MODULE." I WAS QUOTED OVER $1000 IN REPAIRS AND GIVEN NO OTHER OPTIONS. I DECLINED THE REPAIRS IN LIEU OF CONFIRMING WITH AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AS I HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH THAT SERVICE DEPARTMENT BEFORE REGARDING A FAULTY FUEL SYSTEM (WHICH WAS RECALLED AND I WAS NOT INFORMED). MY INDEPENDENT MECHANIC CONFIRMED THE PASSENGER SENSING UNIT WAS NOT WORKING PROPERLY AND AFTER FURTHER INVESTIGATION, I FOUND THAT THIS PART (MUCH LIKE THE DEBACLE WITH MY FUEL PUMP) WAS ALSO A RECALLED. I AM REFERRING TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN#07V344000. MY VIN# IS INCLUDED WITHIN THE DESIGNATED VIN BREAKING POINTS; HOWEVER, IT DOES NOT QUALIFY INDIVIDUALLY. I FIND THIS INFURIATING. IF THE PART IS KNOWN TO BE FAULTY, AND IT'S THE SAME PART PLACED INTO PONTIAC/CHEVY VEHICLES THEN WHY ARE ONLY SOME OF THESE FAULTY PARTS INCLUDED IN THE RECALL???? THIS WAS THE SAME SITUATION WITH MY FAULTY FUEL PUMP, IN WHICH I PAID CASH FOR THE PART AND REPAIRS AND THEN 6 MONTHS LATER RECEIVED A LETTER FROM GM STATING MY VIN# WAS NOW INCLUDED. I PHONED THE DEALER AND GM DIRECTLY AND THEY OFFERED ME NO OPTIONS OTHER THAN PAY $611 FOR THE PART AND ESTIMATED ANOTHER $500 IN LABOR. I HAVE FOUND ON NUMEROUS GM FORUMS THAT THIS ISSUE WITH THE PPM IS VERY COMMON WITH 2007-2009 PONTIAC AND CHEVY VEHICLES WITH THOSE OWNERS GETTING THE SAME EXCUSE FROM GM AND NO RECALL COVERAGE. I AM HOPING THAT IN THE FUTURE SOMEONE FROM THE NHTSA WILL LOOK INTO THIS CAMPAIGN AND EXPAND THE VEHICLES INVOLVED AS IT SEEMS TO BE A DEALER/PART ISSUE AND AFFECTS THE OVERALL SAFETY OF THE VEHICLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS AN ELECTRIC POWER STEERING FAILURE. THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED SEVERAL TIMES WITHOUT WARNING. THE DEALER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE MORE THAN ONCE AND WAS NOT ABLE TO REPLICATE OR DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED NO PERMANENT REMEDY FOR THE CONDITION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

IN THE MONTH OF FEBRUARY 2016 VEHICLE STARTED TO TELL ME THAT IT WAS OVERHEATING. THE HEAT WAS BLOWING COLD AIR. WITHOUT GOING ANY PLACE BUT SITTING IN THE DRIVEWAY IT STARTED TO TELL ME THAT THE ENGINE WAS OVERHEATING AND TO TURN A/C OFF. I COULD STILL HEAR THE FAN RUNNING WHILE DRIVING AND ONCE I PARKED IT WOULD RUN FOR A WHILE. WHY IS THIS NOT A RECALL WITH ALL THE COMPLAINTS THAT I SEE ON THIS SUBJECT ANY HELP WOULD BE NICE

WARNING NOTICE TO SERVICE AIRBAG IS ON AND WILL NOT GO OFF. THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ILLUMINATED FOR THE PASSENGER AND DRIVER. I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR IN TO HAVE THIS ISSUED CHECKED; HOWEVER, THE TECHNICIANS STATED THERE WAS NO ISSUES AND COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM TO FIX. I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT AIR BAGS WILL MALFUNCTION WHILE TRANSPORTING MYSELF AND/OR FAMILY AS THIS IS A ONGOING ISSUE 2007 EQUINOX. GM IS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE AND REFUSES TO RECALL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG PRESSURE SENSOR GAUGE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO BE DIAGNOSED.

CAR SPUTTERS AND STALLS SOMETIMES WHILE DRIVING AND SOMETIMES WHEN EXCELERATING.CAN BE DRIVING DOWN THE STREET OR GETTING ONTO THE FREEWAY.

I HAVE NO HEAT. THE FAN BLOWS BUT ONLY COLD AIR. THIS IS A KNOWN DEFECT IN EQUINOX AND TORRENT MODELS WITH REPAIR COSTS OF OVER $1,000.00. WHY ISN'T GM TAKING RESPONSIBIITY FOR THEIR FAILURES?

THE CAT WAS PAKED IN THE DRIVEWAY I REMOTE STARTED IT AND WHEN I FINALLY GOT TO MY VEHICLE TO LEAVE THE STEERING WHEEL WAS HARD TO MANEUVER. NOW I RECENTLY PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE A MONTH AGO FROM A DEALERSHIP AND WAS GIVEN THE RESPONSIBILITY TO PAY FOR THIS BUT TO NO AVAIL I COMPLAINED BECAUSE I AM A NEW OWNER AND THAT SHOULD NOT BE A REPAIR I'M RESPONSIBLE FOR. BUT THAT DIDN'T STOP THEM FOR MAKING ME PAY A DEDUCTIBLE AS IF IT WAS NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR. THIS DIDN'T SIT RIGHT ON MY HEART SO I FIGURED TO DO SOME INTERNET SEEKING AND FOUND THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS POWER STEERING MODULE I'M SURE THE DEALERSHIP KNEW THIS BEFORE SELLING IT TO ME. VERY DISPLEASED!

ON NOVEMBER 17TH THE VEHICLE STARTED TO TELL ME THAT IT WAS OVERHEATING AND TO TURN A/C OFF. A/C WAS NOT EVEN ON BECAUSE IT WAS COLD AND THE HEAT WAS BLOWING COLD AIR. THE VEHICLE THEN TOLD ME WHILE I WAS TRYING TO GET TO A SAFE LOCATION TO PULL OVER THAT THE ENGINE POWER WAS REDUCED AND THE VEHICLE STATED TO CRAWL ALONG THE ROAD. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS LOOKED AT WHERE I PULLED OVER THERE WAS MINIMAL OIL IN THE VEHICLE AND IT HAD BLOW COOLANT ALL OVER THE DRIVER SIDE WHEEL WELL FROM WHAT LOOKED LIKE THE OVERFLOW TUBE. OIL WAS PUT IN THE VEHICLE SO THAT I COULD DRIVE IT TO A SAFE LOCATION. ON NOVEMBER 18TH I WENT TO START THE VEHICLE TO GO TO WORK AND WITHOUT GOING ANY PLACE BUT SITTING IN THE DRIVEWAY IT STARTED TO TELL ME THAT THE ENGINE WAS OVERHEATING AND TO TURN A/C OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED. THE DEALERSHIP THAT I USE WORKED ON IT AND REPLACED THE TEMP CONTROL AND THERMOSTAT AND DID A COMPLETE OIL CHANGE. IN THE FEW DAYS AFTER THIS WORK WAS DONE I COULD STILL HEAR THE FAN RUNNING WHILE DRIVING AND ONCE I PARKED IT WOULD RUN FOR A WHILE. ON NOVEMBER 25TH I WAS DRIVING AND THE VEHICLE STATED TO SAY ENGINE OVERHEATING AND TO TURN A/C OFF ONCE AGAIN I HAD TO TRAVEL A SHORT DISTANCE TO GET A SEMI SAFE LOCATION TO PULL OVER SINCE THE ENGINE POWER WAS REDUCED AGAIN AND THE VEHICLE CRAWLED ALONG. THE HEATER WAS BLOWING COLD AIR I COULD HEAR THE FANS RUNNING INSIDE THE VEHICLE AS WELL. THIS WAS THE SECOND TIME I HAD TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED IN A WEEK. IT IS NOW NOVEMBER 30TH AND I STILL DO NOT HAVE MY VEHICLE BACK BECAUSE THEY ARE STILL "WORKING" ON IT. I SEE A LOT OF 2006 EQUINOX'S WITH THE SAME ISSUE NOT SURE WHY THIS IS NOT A RECALL BECAUSE IT IS VERY INCONVENIENT TO NOT HAVE A CAR AND TO MISS WORK. I AM SENDING PICTURES FROM THE SECOND TIME IT WAS TOWED.

OVER THE PAST FEW DAYS, MY STABILITRAK LIGHT HAS COME ON AND OFF WHILE DRIVING OR JUST SITTING IN THE CAR. PULLING INTO MY DRIVEWAY TODAY I NOTICED THAT THE LIGHT CAME BACK ON FOR THE STABILITRAK. I PROCEEDED TO DRIVE AND THEN SUDDENLY IT BECAME INCREASING HARD TO MANEUVER MY STEERING WHEEL ALMOST TO THE POINT WHERE IT FELT AS IF IT HAD LOCKED UP ON ME. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR BACK HOME BUT AS I WAS DRIVING I NOTICE MY AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AND WILL NOT GO OFF AT ALL. AFTER MAKING IT BACK TO INTO MY DRIVEWAY I CUT OFF THE IGNITION WAITED A FEW MINUTES AND TURNED THE CAR BACK ON TO SEE IF THIS WOULD HELP EITHER OF THE PROBLEMS BUT TO NO AVAIL. I HAVE NOW TAKEN THE CAR TO MY LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALER AND THEY HAVE INFORMED ME THAT THEY HAVE SEN THIS ISSUE WITH A NUMBER OF EQUINOX AND IT IS INDEED AN ISSUE MY STABILITRAK.

MY SON WAS DRIVING HIS 2007 CHEVY EQUINOX AROUND 50 MPH AND NOTICED A SMELL COMING FROM THE BRAKES. HE GOT HOME AND TOLD ME THEY WERE DRAGGING. I CHECKED THEM AFTER THEY COOLED DOWN. MY INITIAL THOUGHT WAS WORN PADS. I PULLED THE WHEELS AND CALIPERS AND PADS WERE GOOD. HOWEVER I COULD NOT COMPRESS THE DUAL PISTONS BACK INTO THE HOUSING ON EITHER SIDE UNTIL I LOOSENED THE BLEEDER SCREW. BEING CAREFUL TO NOT GET AIR IN THE SYSTEM, I WAS ABLE TO GET THE PISTONS BACK INTO THE HOUSING TO MAKE SURE THEY WERE NOT STUCK. I REASSEMBLED THE BRAKE SYSTEM AND TIRES. I TRIED TO PUT THE BRAKES TO FORCE THE FRONT PISTONS BACK OUT, BUT I HAD NO PRESSURE. I STARTED THE VEHICLE TO SEE IF THE BRAKES WERE WORKING, NO THEY AREN'T. NOW I HAVE NO BREAKES, FRONT OR REAR! FLUID WILL NOT FLOW BACK TO MASTER CYLINDER NOR WILL FLUID FLOW TO CALIPERS. MY QUESTION IS, MASTER CYLINDER OR ABS MODULE.

WITHIN THE LAST MONTH MY CAR HAS STARTED EMITTING A VERY STRONG GAS ODOR AND HAS BEEN HAVING STARTING TROUBLE EVERY TIME I TRY AND START THE CAR. IN THE PAST I HAVE HAD IT HESITATE TO START, BUT THAT OCCURRED LESS FREQUENTLY AND NEVER NOTICED THE SMELL. EVER SINCE I NOTICED THE ODOR, AGAIN ABOUT A MONTH AGO, IT IS HAPPENING EVERY TIME I TRY AND START THE CAR. THE ENGINE TURNS...BUT IT TAKES A MINUTE BEFORE IT CATCHES AND STARTS. SOMETIMES IT WILL NOT CATCH AND START AND I HAVE TO TURN THE KEY A 2ND TIME FOR IT TO ACTUALLY START.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 10 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS RECURRING. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE'S POWER SETTINGS NEEDED TO BE RESET. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 112,000.

AIR BAG LIGHT STAYS ON

2997 CHEVY EQUINOX - THE CAR WAS IN MOTION AROUND 60MPH, WHILE DRIVING THE BRAKES ACTIVATE BY THEMSELVES AND THE ABS, STABILITY TRACK LIGHTS COME ON. THE VEHICLE STALLED IN THE INTERSTATE SEVERAL TIMES. THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE WHEN I ACCELERATE. IT SEEMS AT IF ALL THE BRAKES ARE ACTIVE AND NOT ALLOWING THE CAR TO MOVE. AFTER ALMOST GETTING CLIPPED BY A SEMI I HAD TO THINK FAST. I READ THE MANUAL AND FOUND THE ABS FUSES. IN ORDER TO MOVE THE CAR I HAVE TO REMOVE THE ABS MOTOR FUSE AND THE ABS SYSTEM FUSE. THIS BYPASSES THE SYSTEM AND THE CAR IS ABLE TO MOVE. I HAVE TAKEN TO A MECHANIC AND THEY REPLACED DEALER PARTS ABS MODULE AND ABS MODULATOR "MOTOR". I PAID $1800 FOR THE REPAIR. CAR HAS SAME ISSUE AS I DROVE A WAY FROM SHOP. WHEN IT STALLED AFTER REPAIR I REMOVED THE FUSES AGAIN AND DROVE IT BACK TO THE SHOP FOR REPAIR AGAIN. SHOP SAYS THESE PARTS REPLACED ARE DEALER PARTS AND THEY WILL REPLACE AGAIN WITH NEW PARTS. CALLED THE CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP ON THIS AND THEY MENTION THAT THERE IS NO ISSUE/RECALL WITH THIS AT THE TIME. THE CAR HAS $80K MILES AND HAS BEEN AT THE SHOP FOR TWO WEEKS STILL UNDER DIAGNOSTICS TO TRY TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE. FRUSTRATED!

IT FIRST STARTED 3 MONTHS AGO TOOK IT TO FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND THE RECOMMENDATION I RECEIVED FROM SERVICE AGENT WAS TO GET FUEL SYSTEM CLEANED AND CHANGE THE TRANSMISSION FLUIDS WHICH COST ME AROUND $298. THE SAME DAY IT DID THE SAME THING WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY, SO I LET IT BE FOR A WHILE BUT IT CONTINUES WITH THE SAME PROBLEM AND HAVE CONTACTED SERVICE AGENT BUT HAVE NO SOLUTION FOR ME. THE OTHER ISSUE IT HAS IS THE KEY ALWAYS GETS STUCK, AND NEED TO TURN THE CAR BACK ON THEN TURN THE WHEEL, BUT SOMETIMES IT TAKES MORE THAN THIS TO GET THE KEY OUT FROM THE IGNITION SWITCH.

DURING A LONG TRIP, THE PASSENGER AIRBAG SENSOR LIGHT CHANGED FROM "ON" TO "OFF" INTERMITTENTLY EVEN THOUGH THERE WAS A PASSENGER PRESENT ALL OF TIME. WHEN THE SENSOR LIGHT TURNED TO OFF, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT ALSO CAME ON EACH TIME. THIS HAPPENED ABOUT 8 TIMES DURING THE TRIP. IT HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES SINCE THEN AS WELL.

AIR BAGS SOMETIMES DOES NOT REGISTER WHEN INDIVIDUALS SITTING IN PASSENGER OR DRIVERS SEAT. AIR BAG SERVICE LIGHT GOES ON AND OFF RANDOMLY AS WELL.

WARNING LIGHT TO SERVICE AIR BAG HAS COME ON AND NEVER TURNS OFF. I HAVE TAKEN CAR IN TO HAVE THIS CHECKED AND TECHNICIANS CANNOT FIND THE PROBLEM OR FIX IT. NOT SURE IF AIR BAGS WILL FUNCTION ON IMPACT.

I WAS DRIVING HOME AND ENGINE OVERHEATED, ALMOST DIDN'T GET OFF ROAD. TOOK TO A GARAGE AND $433. LATER WITH TOW BILL, THEY REPLACED THERMOSTAT AND FLUSHED IT. ONE WEEK LATER DID THE SAME THING PLUS KEPT POPPING UP OIL CHANGE NEEDED AND HAD ALREADY DID THAT FEW MONTHS BEFORE. FILLED WITH GAS AND IT POPPED UP LOW FUEL. HAD IT LOOKED AT AGAIN AND THEY SAID HEAD GASKET, WHICH QUOTED $2500. BUT SEVERAL HAVE TOLD ME THEY HAD WORKED ON SEVERAL WITH SAME PROBLEM, SAID EQUINOX ARE KNOWN FOR THIS! WHY IS THERE NOT A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM? I AM ON SS AND THIS IS HARD FOR ME TO HANDLE MONEY WISE. I'M JUST UPSET THAT THIS IS HAPPENING TO SEVERAL OTHERS AND THEY JUST ACCEPTED IT AND DIDN'T COMPLAIN!!!!

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING WHEN THE BRAKES BEGAN TO SEIZE AND THERE WAS A BURNING SMELL. SHE CONTINUED TO ATTEMPT TO DRIVE AND THE CAR WAS SLOW TO ACCELERATE WHICH CAUSED THE CAR TO OVERHEAT. THE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AND ADVISED TO TURN OFF AC AND STOP CAR. SHE STATED THAT THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS VERY HARD TO PRESS. SHE STOPPED THE CAR ALLOWED IT TO COOL DOWN THEN PROCEEDED TO CAUTIOUSLY DRIVE HOME. I IMMEDIATELY DROVE IT AND NOTICED A SLIGHT BURN SCENT BUT THE CAR SEEMED TO BE OK OTHER THAN THE POWER BRAKES WERE NO LONGER FUNCTIONAL. AFTER THE CAR SAT FOR 6-7 HOURS I DROVE IT FOR ABOUT 1/2 HOUR WITH THE POWER BRAKES NOW FUNCTIONING. I TOOK IT TO THE SHOP AND HAD ENTIRE SYSTEM (CALIPERS, ROTORS, PADS, LINES, ETC.) EXAMINED AND AT THAT TIME IT COULD NOT BE REPLICATED. MY WIFE DROVE IT THE FOLLOWING DAY AND AFTER 25 MINUTES OF INTERSTATE DRIVING THE POWER BRAKES WERE AGAIN NOT FUNCTIONING. SHE PARKED IT FOR 3 DAYS AT THE AIRPORT AND UPON HER RETURN THE POWER BRAKES WORKED FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES BEFORE THEY NO LONGER WORKED.

DRIVING DOWN THE STREET AND I HEAR WARNING SIGNAL LOOK DOWN AT DASH IT SAYS STABILIZERTRACK

AFTER LIFTING THE LIFT GATE IT FELL AND HIT ME ON TOP OF MY HEAD AND KNOCKED ME TO THE GROUND, THE LIFT GATE NO LONGER PULLS UP EASILY.

TOOK MY 2007 EQUINOX TO DEALERSHIP WHERE I BUT IT IN MAY OF 2007 TO TELL THEM ABOUT PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG NOT WORKING CORRECTLY WHEN CERTAIN INDIVIDUALS LUKE MYSELF WERE SITTING IN PASSENGER SEAT AND I WAS TOLD NOTHING THEY COULD DO THAT I JUST NEEDED TO CARRY A GALLON OF WATER ON MY LAP BECAUSE I WAS TO SMALL. FYI I WEIGH 120. ALSO THE KEY KEEPS GETTING STUCK IN THE IGNITION I THINK THIS IS VERY UNSAFE ALONG WITH THE AIRBAG. WOULD LIKE A RESPONSE ASAP MY EQUINOX ONLY HAS 42000 MILES .

THE PASSENGER SEAT AIRBAG LIGHT GOES BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN ON AND NOT ON WHEN SOMEONE IS SITTING IN THE SEAT. SOMETIMES IT WORKS FINE FOR AN EXTENDED AMOUNT OF TIME. LEANING TO GET SOMETHING IN THE BACK SEAT CAN TRIGGER IT TO GO OFF AND STAY OFF.

OVER THE PAST FEW DAYS, MY STABILITRAK LIGHT HAD COME ON AND OFF WHILE DRIVING OR JUST SITTING IN THE CAR. PULLING INTO MY DRIVEWAY TODAY I NOTICED THAT THE LIGHT CAME BACK ON FOR THE STABILITRAK AND THEN IT BECAME INCREASING HARD TO MANEUVER MY STEERING WHEEL.

THIS CAR AND OTHERS ARE A AREAL PAIN I CAN PROVIDE YOU WITH MANY ON A LIST THAT HAS THIS CAR AND THE PROBLEMS AND WHAT DROP DOWN BOX??

THE RIGHT FRONT PASSENGER SEAT IS BUILT WITH A PASSENGER SENSING SYSTEM. WHENEVER THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT IS OCCUPIED, AND SOMETIMES WHEN IT IS NOT OCCUPIED, AN ERROR IN THE SEAT SENSOR CALIBRATION CAUSES THE 'CHECK AIR BAG' LIGHT TO COME ON.

I PURCHASED A 2007 CHEVY EQUINOX AT A CHEVY DEALERSHIP IN 2014. A COUPLE OF WEEKS AFTER PURCHASE I STARTED HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE KEY IN THE IGNITION. IT WOULD SOMETIMES GET SO I COULD NOT PULL IT OUT OF THE IGNITION AFTER PUTTING THE VEHICLE IN PARK. I HAVE WAITED FOR A YEAR, BECAUSE I BELIEVED THE PROBLEM WOULD GET BETTER. THE PROBLEM HAS CONTINUED, AND IS SLOWLY GETTING WORSE. I HAVE EVEN TRIED DIFFERENT SETS OF KEYS TO SEE IF THAT MADE A DIFFERENCE, IT HAS NOT. IT DOES NOT MATTER IF THE VEHICLE IS PARKED ON A FLAT SERVICE OR ON AN INCLINE, THE KEY KEEPS GETTING STUCK IN THE IGNITION. I HAVE EVEN TAKEN ALL OTHER KEYS OFF THE KEY RING THINKING THAT WOULD MAKE A DIFFERENCE, IT DID NOT. THE ONLY WAY THAT I CAN GET THE KEY OUT IS BY SHAKING THE SHIFTER ON THE FLOOR AND WOBBLE THE STEERING WHEEL BACK AND FORTH. THAT DOES NOT ALWAYS WORK, SO SOMETIMES I HAVE TO TURN THE VEHICLE BACK ON AND OFF AGAIN TO GET IT TO COME OUT. I AM AFRAID THAT ONE OF THESE TIMES I AM NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO GET THE KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION WHICH WILL MAKE IT EASIER FOR SOMEONE TO BREAK INTO IT AND STEAL IT FROM ME. I HAVE GONE BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP THAT I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND TOLD ME THAT I WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE THE IGNITION CYLINDER AT MY OWN EXPENSE SINCE THERE IS NO OFFICIAL RECALL ON THE PART. *TR

I'M NOT SURE IF I HAD WRITTEN YOU ALREADY , ITS COMPLICATED, BUT HERE GOES. I BOUGHT A 2007 CHEVY EQUINOX IN AUGUST 9, 2014 . AUGUST 29, 2007 IS WHEN THE FIRST OF MANY PROBLEMS STARTED. THE STABILITY A LIGHT CAME ON,AT THE EXACT TIME THE LIGHTS CAME ON THE CAR WOULD SLOW WAY, WAY DOWN IT DIDN'T EVEN REGISTER ON HOW MANY MILES I WAS GOING THAT'S HOW SLOW THE CAR MOVED, THEN IT CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP. I WAITED A FEW SECONDS AND TRIED TO START THE CAR AND IT DID START. THIS KEPT HAPPENING ABOUT 4 OR 5 TIMES, THEN ON DECEMBER 12, 20014 IT DID IT AGAIN, BUT THIS TIME IT WOULD NOT START UP AGAIN. I HAD TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED, I HAD ALL OF MY 10 YEAR OLD CHRISTMAS GIFTS STILL IN THE CAR. THE GARAGE HAD MY CAR FROM DEC. 12 THRU TO MARCH 20, 2015, THEN IT WAS TOWED TO ANOTHER GARAGE, THE FIRST GARAGE COULD NOT LOCATE THE PROBLEM. OK, THE SECOND GARAGE HAD IT, THEY CHARGED ME $160.00 I GOT THE CAR BACK ON APRIL 10, 2015 I DROVE IT FOR FOUR DAYS AND IT DID IT AGAIN, NOW THIS CAR HAS DIED IN THE MIDDLE OF INTERSECTIONS BEFORE AND IT DID IT AGAIN ON APRIL 13 2015. I WAS STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF A VERY BUSY INTERSECTION, THERE WAS THIS HUGE DUMP TRUCK HEADED RIGHT FOR ME, I WAS SCARED TO DEATH, I ALMOST ALWAYS HAVE MY GRANDCHILDREN WITH ME THANK GOD THEY WEREN'T THIS TIME. WHEN MY CAR WAS MOVING VERY SLOWLY THE STABILITRAC LIGHT DID NOT COME ON, AFTER A COUPLE OF MINUTES AFTER THE FACT THEY DID COME ON. TWO MEN PUSHED ME OUT FROM THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION. THERE WAS SMOKE COMING FROM THE HOOD OF THE CAR. THE FIRST THING I THOUGHT OF IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN THE RADIATOR, BUT COME TO FIND OUT IT WAS NOT THE RADIATOR. I HAD THE CAR TOWED AGAIN TO A DIFFERENT GARAGE, THEY LOOKED IT OVER VERY WELL AND CALLED ME TO TELL ME THERE'S A WIRE THAT CAUGHT ON FIRE AND IT BURNED. *TR

EVERYTHING SINGLE TIME THAT (XXX) LIGHT COMES ON AND SAYS STABILIZERTRAC,MY CAR SLOWS WAY DOWN THEN COMES TO A DEAD STOP.YOU CANNOT CONTROL THE CAR, YOU CANNOT GIVE IT GAS, YOU CANNOT PUT ON THE BRAKES, YOU CANNOT STEER IT. YOU CANNOT DO ANYTHING TO IT. IT STOPS ON ITS OWN, IVE BEEN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION, I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED, IF A SEMI OR A DUMP TRUCK WERE COMING. THAT'S PRETTY SCARY. I WANT TO KNOW HOW TO FIX THIS? WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE? IVE ASKED SOME MECHANICS AND THEY HAD NO CLUE WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT. I NEED SOME HELP ON THIS? ANYBODY? I'M VERY FRUSTRATED, I BOUGHT THAT (XXX) CAR IN OCTOBER OF 2014, ON DECEMBER 12,2014 IT BROKE DOWN, I JUST GOT MY CAR BACK ON APRIL 9, 2015, YES YOU READ THAT RIGHT. THIS (XXX) HAD MY CAR ALL THESE MONTHS, HE NEVER RETURNED ANY PHONE CALLS NOR WAS HE EVER AT THE GARAGE, THEN I FINALLY GOT IT OUT OF THERE TO ANO5HER PLACE,N THEY HAD IT A COUPLE OF WEEKS, I GET I5 BACK AND I DROVE IT FOR FOUR DAYS AND IT BREAKS DOWN AGAIN. *TRPARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

THERE IS A COMMON PROBLEM WRONG WITH THE CHEVY EQUINOX, I HAVE A BLOWN HEAD GASKET BECAUSE OF WATER IN MY DASHBOARD. I WAS TOLD TO FILE A COMPLAINT, BECAUSE SO MANY INDIVIDUALS WHO BY THESE PARTICULAR VEHICLES ALL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM ESPECIALLY IF YOU PURCHASED A EQUINOX BETWEEN 2006 AND 2009. THIS IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT AND THE VEHICLES SHOULD BE RECALLED. *TR

ON OCTOBER 19, 2009, I PURCHASED A CHEVROLET EQUINOX 2007. AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE I NOTICED CONDENSATION IN THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT HEADLIGHT LENS AND I WAS TOLD BY THE SALESMAN AT THE TIME THAT IT WOULD "BURN OFF" IF I KEPT THE LIGHTS ON. SINCE THAT TIME BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER HEADLIGHTS HAVE DEVELOPED THE CONDENSATION ISSUE. THE CONDENSATION DOES NOT BURN OFF JUST KEEPS ACCUMULATING TO THE POINT WHERE THE HEADLIGHT BULB WOULD JUST BURN OUT. IN THE PAST SIX YEARS I HAVE REPLACED THE VARIOUS BULBS IN THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY NINE TIMES AND THE BULB SOCKET ASSEMBLIES HAVE BEEN CORRODED AS A RESULT OF THE CONSTANT PRESENCE OF MOISTURE. OFTEN TIMES I WOULD BE DRIVING AT NIGHT WHEN THE BULBS WOULD GO OUT MAKING THIS A SEVERE SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME DIFFICULT TO TURN WITHOUT WARNING.

THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 150,000.

UPDATED 4/21/15*CN THE CONSUMER STATED SHE WAS UNABLE TO SHIFT THE GEAR OUT OF PARK AND THE KEY WOULD NOT COME OUT OF THE IGNITION. UPDATED 04/28/15

SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON. WEIGHT IN FRONT PASSENGER SEAT DOES NOT REGISTER. CODE FOUND IS SAME AS CODE FOR OTHER GM VEHICLES UNDER RECALL FOR AIRBAGS. *TR

TRANSMISSION WILL NOT SHIFT INTO THIRD GEAR WITHOUT LETTING OFF THE GAS, VALVE BODY SOLENOID PROBLEM. REAR WIPER MOTOR BAD, IGNITION GETS STUCK ON WITH KEY IN, HAVE TO PUT GEAR SHIFTER IN AND OUT OF GEAR MULTIPLE TIMES TO GET KEY OUT. ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL OFF LIGHTS COMES ON AFTER JUST A FEW SECONDS OF VEHICLE BEING STARTED. ALTERNATOR WAS WHINING EXTREMELY LOUD, HAD TO REPLACE. HEATER BLEND DOOR BROKEN, CANNOT HAVE HOT AIR FOR WINTER OR COLD A/C IN SUMMER. SOUNDS LIKE WATER RUSHING THROUGH DASH BOARD WHEN CAR IS STARTED. VERY HEAVY ODOR OF ANTIFREEZE INSIDE CAR WHEN HEAT IS ON. *TR

I NOTICE WHILE MY WIFE WAS DRIVING NO SIDE BREAKLIGHTS BUT CENTER LIGHT CAME ON. I HAVE CHANGED THE BULBS AND CHECKED FUSES AND STILL NO BRAKE LIGHTS. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE 95 GOING 70 MPH , THE STEERING LOCKED UP AND I LOST POWER WHEN ALL THE DASH LIGHTS STARTED FLASHING. THIS WAS THE DAY AFTER I BOUGHT THE CAR FROM AUTO SHOWCASE OF BELAIR MD. THE POWER STEERING GOING OUT HAPPENED ATLEAST 7 TIMES IN THE FIRST TWO WEEKS ALONE. I REQUESTED FOR THEM TO TAKE THE CAR BACK, THEY REFUSED.. 4 WEEKS INTO OWNING THIS CAR THE POWER STEERING ISSUE WAS FINALLY RESOLVED.DURING THAT TIME PERIOD I FOUND OUT THAT THE CAR SOLD TO ME WAS STOLEN, THE DEALER DID NOT TELL ME THAT AND SHOWED ME PAPER WORK THAT WAS NOT A CAR FAX REPORT. THREE MONTHS LATER IN OCTOBER OF 2013 MY CAR STARTED OVER HEATING AND CUTTING POWER OFF TO THE ENGINE WHILE DRIVING THE SPEED LIMIT ON 95. IT HAPPENED 5 TIMES. A MECHANIC LOOKED IT OVER AND SAID THE HEAD GASKETS WERE BLOWN. AFTER A MONTH IT WAS FIXED. ONE MONTH LATER IN DECEMBER, MY CAR WOULD SHUT OFF ON ME WHILE DRIVING. I AM NOT JOKING WHEN I SAY THAT HAPPENED OVER 100 TIMES. I HAVE OVER 20 VIDEOS OF THIS HAPPENING UP UNTIL JUST RECENTLY IN FEBRUARY OF 2015. SO THE ISSUE NOW,OTHER THAN MY CAR JUST RANDOMLY SHUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING, IS MY HEAD GASKETS BLEW AGAIN. I HAVE BEEN LOOKING ON LINE AND HAVE FOUND THIS TO BE A SERIOUS PROBLEM FOR THOUSANDS OF OTHER CHEVY EQUINOX OWNERS! WHY HAS THIS PARTICULAR MODEL NOT HAVE RECALLED!? THIS MODEL IS DANGEROUS TO ANYONE THAT DRIVES IT OR JUST HAPPENS TO BE ON THE ROAD NEAR THEM. WHEN MY CAR HAS SHUT OFF ON ME OVER 100 TIMES IHAVE CUT MULTIPLE DRIVERS OFF EVERY TIME TRYING TO MAKE IT TO THE SHOULDER. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED! THIS VEHICLE MODEL IS FAR FROM SAFE AND I DO BELIEVE THAT YOU KNOW THIS. YOU CAN LOOK UP ANY CHEVY EQUINOX FORUM ON THE INTERNET AND FIND THESE INCIDENTS. *TR

SOMETIMES THE IGNITION FREEZES UP AND DOES NOT ALLOW YOU TO REMOVE THE KEY. ALTHOUGH THIS DOESN'T HAPPEN EVERY TIME IT HAPPENS ENOUGH TO BE A CONCERN. IF IN A MALL PARKING LOT IT COULD RENDER ONE IN A DANGEROUS POSITION OF NOT BEING ABLE TO TAKE THE KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION. I USUALLY HAVE TO WAIT SEVERAL MINUTES, UP TO 20, BEFORE THE IGNITION WILL RELEASE THE KEY. *TR

MY KEY KEEPS GETTING STUCK IN THE IGNITION. I LITERALLY HAVE TO TURN MY CAR ON AND OFF, MOVE THE SHIFTER IN AND OUT OF PARK, SHAKE THE SHIFTER, TAKE MY FOOT OFF OF THE BRAKES, AT LEAST 10-15 TIMES BEFORE THE IGNITION WILL RELEASE THE KEY. I TRIED TO MAKE AN APPT WITH A CHEVY DEALERSHIP WHEN THIS PROBLEM WENT PUBLIC AND THEY CANCELLED ME BECAUSE MY VEHICLE WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. I TALKED TO A REPRESENTATIVE SHAKEVIA WITH CHEVROLET CHAT AND SHE SAID THAT I WOULD HAVE TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL OF THE DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR FEES SINCE MY VEHICLE IS NOT INCLUDED WITH THE RECALL. I LOOKED AT THE RECALL LIST AND ALL THE VEHICLES THAT ARE ON THERE, THE YEAR OF MY VEHICLE FITS IN EVERY SINGLE COLUMN. *TR

I OWN A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX, AND SINCE I BOUGHT IT, I HAVE HAD SEVERAL ISSUES WITH THE POWER STEERING. THE FIRST TIME, I STARTED THE VEHICLE AND THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT BRIEFLY. I HAD TO USE EXCESSIVE FORCE TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. ANOTHER TIME, I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL GOT VERY HARD ON ME, AND I COULDN'T MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL, EXTREMELY HARD TO TURN THE WHEEL. WHEN IT HAPPENS, I SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF AND RE-STARTED IT, SOMETIMES THE POWER STEERING WORKS AND SOMETIMES IT DOESN'T. THE TRACKING CONTROL AND SERVICE STABILITRAK WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON SINCE THE FIRST TIME. IT HAD HAPPENED INTERMITTENTLY FOR 3 YEARS. UNTIL I TOOK IT TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED POWER STEERING CONTROL MODULE FAILURE. I HAD TO SPENT A LOT OF MONEY TO FIX THE PROBLEM. RECENTLY, I HAVE HAD ANOTHER ISSUE, THE KEY GETS STUCK. THE KEY WILL NOT COME OUT OF THE IGNITION WHEN TURNING OFF THE VEHICLE. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK, TURN THE KEY OFF, THE ENGINE TURNS OFF, BUT THE KEY WILL NOT COME OUT OF THE IGNITION. AFTER NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS OF JIGGLING THE KEY AND TRYING TO MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL, I GET THE KEY TO TURN. ALL THIS IS DANGEROUS AND THE SAME TIME FRUSTRATING. FORTUNATELY, I HAVE NOT BEEN INVOLVED IN A CRASH. *TR

APPROACHING DRIVEWAY AND SUDDENLY THE SPEEDOMETER SHOWED I WAS DOING 90 MPH AND I KNEW THIS WAS INCORRECT AS I WAS SLOWING DOWN TO MAKE A TURN OFF OF A HIGHWAY. NOW THE SPEEDOMETER MAY WORK CORRECTLY FOR A FEW MILES AND THEN IT SHOWS THAT I AM DRIVING A SPEED ABOVE WHAT IS ALLOWED OR WHAT I KNOW IS UNTRUE. TOOK TO A MECHANIC AND HE SAYS THE SPEEDOMETER MOTOR NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. FOR PAST 3 YEARS THE CHECK TIRE SENSOR MONITOR COMES ON WHEN MAKING A LONG DISTANCE TRIP. FOR PAST 2 YEARS THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON WHENEVER ANYONE SITS ON PASSENGER SIDE. MECHANIC SAYS CLUSTER PANEL NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.

AFTER PARKING CAR AND TURNING KEY TO TURN OFF ENGINE I CAN'T GET THE KEY OUT THE CAR. ISSUE HAPPENS A FEW TIMES A WEEK AND SOMETIMES HAPPENS ALL DAY. SOMETIMES YOU HAVE TO SIT AND WAIT OR RESTART CAR AND DRIVE AROUND AND THEN PARK TO GET KEY OUT. I HAVE SEEN THE ISSUE REPORTED ON MULTIPLE SITES AND FORUMS YET GM STILL HASN'T ISSUED A RECALL. *TR

FAN ASSEMBLY STOPPED WORKING, CAUSING MY ENGINE TO OVERHEAT, AND NOW I HAVE A BLOWN HEAD GASKET...NOT A CHEAP REPAIR. APPEARS THERE ARE A LOT OF OWNERS OF THE SAME VEHICLE THAT SEEM TO BE HAVING A HEAD GASKET ISSUE AROUND 80K. *JS

17 YR OLD DAUGHTER DRIVING HOME FROM SCHOOL AND POWER STEERING FAILED. DEALER DIAGNOSED PROBLEM AS A FAILED POWER STEERING MODULE. COST TO REPLACE $730.00.

MY 19 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AT APPROXIMATELY 11 PM ON SUNDAY, OCTOBER 5, 2014 ON A STRAIGHT STREET GOING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH IN OUR 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX WHEN BOTH THE DRIVER & PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED FOR NO APPARENT REASON. IT SCARED HER HALF TO DEATH, AND LUCKILY SHE DID NOT GET IN TO AN ACCIDENT. I CALLED OUR LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP TO REPORT THE ISSUE & REQUEST SERVICE. I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS & THAT I SHOULD FILE WITH MY INSURANCE COMPANY. I CONTACTED MY INSURANCE COMPANY & WAS TOLD NO COLLISION, NO CLAIM. I THEN WENT BACK TO THE SERVICE MANAGER & HE PROCEEDED TO TELL ME THAT THE CAR PROBABLY THOUGHT IT WAS GOING TO TIP OVER--REALLY? LONG STORY SHORT, I HAVE CALLED GM PRODUCT DEPARTMENT & FILED A CLAIM WITH THEM, AND THE DEALERSHIP HAS HAD MY CAR FOR OVER A WEEK, AND THEY HAVE NOT HEARD FROM GM. I WAS TOLD BY THE PRODUCT SPECIALIST THAT AN INSPECTOR WAS GOING TO CHECK THE CAR & LET ME KNOW WHAT THE COMPUTER SAYS OF WHY THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF SUCH A THING, AND THEY ARE SAYING IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME ESPECIALLY IN SUV'S. I HAVE OWNED AN SUV SINCE 2005 & HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED AN ISSUE WITH THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYING WITHOUT A COLLISION. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ANY ONE ELSE & HOW I CAN HANDLE THIS MALFUNCTION OF THE AIR BAGS. I FEEL THAT THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH FAULTY AIR BAGS, NOT MY FINANCIAL ISSUE. AND IS THIS CAR STILL SAFE FOR US TO DRIVE? PLEASE HELP. *TR

I HAVE MULTIPLE ISSUES CURRENTLY AND THEY ALL SEEM TO BE LISTED ON OTHER COMPLAINTS. 1. THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW HAS COMPLETELY STOPPED WORKING. IT SEEMS TO HAVE BECOME DISCONNECTED TO THE MOTOR AS I CAN HEAR THE MOTOR GOING UP AND DOWN WITHIN THE DOOR. 2. STABILITRAK WARNING AND ENGINE LIGHT ARE CONSTANTLY TURNING ON AND OFF. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON AND OFF OVER THE PAST YEAR OR SO BUT THE DEALERSHIP COULD NOT GET A READING FROM THE COMPUTER. NOW IT HAS BEEN ON FOR THE PAST 2 WEEKS CONSTANTLY 3. THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE IN THE INSTRUMENT PANEL DOES NOT WORK. TOOK IT INTO THE DEALER AND THEY REPLACED THE THERMOSTAT A FEW DAYS LATER THE GAUGE WENT HAYWIRE AGAIN. IT GETS WORSE WHEN I FILL UP WITH GAS AND TENDS TO MIRROR THE GAS GAUGE READING MOST OF THE TIME. 4. THE KEY WILL NOT COME OUT OF THE IGNITION WHEN TURNING OFF THE CAR. THIS IS EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK, TURN THE KEY OFF, THE ENGINE TURNS OFF BUT THE KEY WILL NOT COME OUT OF THE IGNITION. HAVE TO TURN CAR BACK ON, PUT IT IN AND OUT OF PARK, TURN THE WHEEL, BACK UP, DRIVE FORWARD OR JUST SIT AND WAIT A FEW MINUTES AND IT COMES OUT. 5. OCCASIONALLY THE ELECTRONICS GO CRAZY - THE TURN SIGNALS WON'T WORK AND THE RADIO SHUTS DOWN. IT MAKES A SOUND WHEN IT DOES THIS AS WELL, LIKE A CLICKING NOISE BUT IT ONLY LASTS FOR A FEW SECONDS AND I CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT CAUSES IT. *TR

IN THE MORNING OF MAY 1, 2014, I WENT TO THE PARKING LOT TO GET THE EQUINOX TO BUY SOME GROCERIES. WHEN I WAS OPENING THE DOOR, I SMELLED GASOLINE. SO I LOOKED UNDER THE EQUINOX AND SAW A BIG WET SPOT UNDER THE FUEL TANK. I IMMEDIATELY BROUGHT THE EQUINOX TO AN AUTO REPAIR SHOP. IT WAS FOUND OUT THAT THE FUEL PUMP WAS LEAKING. SO I BOUGHT A NEW FUEL PUMP AND THE REPAIR WAS FINISHED ON MAY 3, 2014. I WOULD LIKE TO MENTION THAT ON JUNE 18, 2013, I BROUGHT THE EQUINOX TO THE CHARLES CLARK CHEVROLET FOR INSPECTION AFTER I RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER FROM GENERAL MOTORS FOR THE FUEL PUMP THAT WOULD LIKE. AFTER THE INSPECTION OF THE FUEL TANK AND FUEL PUMP, THE DEALER DECLARED NO LEAKS AND FOUND ALL WITHIN SPECS. I WAS MISLED BECAUSE THE FUEL PUMP LEAKED. BEING RECALLED, THE DEALER SHOULD HAVE CHANGED THE FUEL PUMP LEAKING OR NOT AND I WOULD NOT HAVE SPENT FOR THE REPAIR. I IMMEDIATELY FILED REIMBURSEMENT FROM THE DEALER AND I WAS TOLD THAT MY CLAIM WAS FORWARDED TO GENERAL MOTORS. UNTIL NOW (8/22/14) I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY REFUND. UPDATED 03/04/15. *JB

CANNOT REMOVE KEY FROM IGNITION. KEYS (BOTH KEYS THAT WERE ISSUED WITH THE CAR) WILL GO INTO THE IGNITION WITHOUT A PROBLEM, BUT WHEN TRYING TO REMOVE THE KEYS, THEY WILL NOT COME OUT. YOU HAVE TO TURN THE CAR BACK ON, WIGGLE THE STEERING WHEEL AND TAKE THE CAR OUT OF GEAR AND PUT BACK IN PARK, SOME TIMES SEVERAL TIMES. YOU WILL FINALLY HEAR A CLICK, LIKE UNLOCKING OF THE DOORS AND THE KEYS WILL COME OUT OF THE IGNITION. TOOK TO A DEALER AND THEY SAID THERE WAS A RECALL, THEY WORKED ON THE CAR BUT IT STILL DOES THE SAME THING. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR OVER 3 YEARS. SOME TIMES THE PROBLEM GOES AWAY FOR WEEKS AT A TIME AND THEN RETURNS. *TR

I WAS DRIVING AND THE CAR STARTED SHAKING AND VIBRATING VERY BAD. I CALLED AND WAS TOLD IT COULD BE MY TIRES IF THEY WERE NOT ALL ABOUT THE SAME TREAD. I HAD REPLACED TWO TIRES A COUPLE MONTHS PRIOR SO I TOLD MY HUSBAND TO PULL MY REAR TIRES TO SEE IF IT HELPED. AS SOON AS HE PUT THE SPARE ON THE PASSENGER REAR SIDE THE VIBRATING STOPPED. SO WE TOOK THE CAR IN AND HAD 2 MORE TIRES PUT ON. THAT DID NOT STOP THE VIBRATION. I COULD ONLY DRIVE ON A SPARE HOME. SO I TOOK IT TO DEALERSHIP AND IT NEEDED A REAR DRIVE SHAFT!!! *TR

THE VEHICLE IS AGAIN AT THE CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP (5TH TIME SINCE APRIL 2014) FOR THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM AND IT LOOKS LIKE THE THROTTLE BOTTLE IS (AGAIN) BEING REPLACED. THE SERVICE MANAGER AND TECHNICIANS INDICATED THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT THE "REAL PROBLEM" IS, AND GOOD CHANCE THE VEHICLE WILL DEVELOP THE SAME ISSUE AGAIN. THIS IS A VERY UNSAFE VEHICLE CONDITION, AND I WOULD LIKE TO SELL THE CAR BUT AFRAID TO PUT SOMEONE ELSE IN DANGER. *TR

THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW STOPPED WORKING ALONG WITH THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR LOCK SWITCH. THEY BOTH STOPPED WORKING AT THE SAME TIME. *TR

NOW THE AIR CONDITIONING IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY AS WELL. I'VE HAD TO BUY TIRES BUT THEY KEEP WEARING BECAUSE SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE STABILITY TRACK.THE AIR BAGS NEED SERVICE. AND NOW JUST TWO DAYS AGO SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE SPEEDOMETER. THE MOTOR ALSO MAKES A WEIRD SOUND. ..OVER ALL I DON'T FEEL SAFE IN MY VEHICLE ANYMORE. NOW THE VEHICLE STILL SHAKES AND I HAVE TO BUY TIRES AGAIN.IT SHAKES VERY BADLY. AI JUST DID AN OIL CHANGE AND IT ALREADY NEEDS MORE OIL. *TR

MY WIFE'S EQUINOX WAS TRAVELING AT AROUND 45 MPH WHEN AXLE BROKE AND CAUSED HER TO CRASH HITTING ANOTHER VEHICLE CAUSING MINIMAL DAMAGE TO IT, THEN IT WEN DOWN A 10 FT EMBANKMENT AND HIT A CONCRETE WALL HEAD ON.

THE IGNITION KEY WOULD GET STUCK IN THE IGNITION. THE ONLY WAY I COULD GET IT OUT WOULD BE TO REPEATADLY SHIFT FROM PARK TO DRIVE OR REVERSE UNTIL THE KEY WAS RELEASED. I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL CHEVY DEALER FOR REPAIR. IT COST $544 TO GET IT FIXED. I HAVE HEARD OF OTHERS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. *TR

I PURCHASED A USED EQUINOX AND IT NOW HAS THE SERVICE AIR BAG INDICATION ON THE DASH & EVEN WHEN OCCUPIED BY A LARGE ADULT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WILL NOT TURN ON. IT STATES OFF CONTINUOUSLY. I DID CALL CHEVROLET AS SOME HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THE IDENTICAL PROBLEM, HOWEVER, WAS TOLD THAT MY VIN NUMBER DID NOT MATCH THE RECALL ONLY 437 CARS MATCHED THAT RECALL AND THAT I WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPAIRS MYSELF. *TR

I CONTACTED GM ABOUT THE ISSUES,THEY MADE AN APPOINTMENT AT A DEALER,WHEN I TOOK IT THEIR THE DEALER REFUSED MAKING UP EVERY EXCUSE HE COULD,CALLED GM SEVERAL TIMES BUT THEY SAY THESE ITEMS WOULD BE FIXED ,IT IS ALL SCREWED UP,GM DOES NOT GIVE A [XXX] ABOUT THESE HAZARDS,PROBLEMS STILL EXIST,REFERENCE NUMBER IS [XXX],THEIR HAVE BEEN RECALLS EXCEPT FOR OHIO,GIVE ME A BREAK,THAT IS THE STUPIDEST THING SINCE THE VEHICLE HAS SO MANY RECALLS...........................TAIL GATE DOOR DOES NOT OPEN,MOTOR IS NOT WORKING,POTENTIAL HAZARD. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

CRUISE CONTROL ACCELERATION BUTTON "STUCK" DOWN IN ACCELERATION "MODE" AND CAR CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE. I HAD TO PRESS THE BRAKE TO DISENGAGE THE CRUISE CONTROL. THIS BUTTON "STICKS" OR GETS "STUCK" IN ACCELERATION "MODE" ON CRUISE CONTROL AND THE ONLY WAY I HAVE FOUND TO DISENGAGE IT IS TO TAP THE BRAKES AND DISENGAGE THE CRUISE CONTROL. *TR

I HAVE A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX AND STARTED NOTICING A FUEL SMELL COMING FROM THE REAR OF IT AS IT GETS WORSE AFTER DRIVING. I HAD A COBALT THAT HAD THE RECALL ON THE FUEL PUMP FOR THE SAME ISSUE SO I LOOKED INTO IT AND CALLED A FEW LOCAL DEALERS AND FOUND OUT THERE IS A RECALL ON THE EQUINOXES FOR IT AS WE'LL BUT IT IS ONLY IN CERTAIN AREAS AND MINE DOES NOT FALL INTO THE CATEGORY. I HAVE ALSO RESEARCHED AND FOUND OUT A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE BUT THE RECALL IS NOT BEING EXTENDED AND IT SHOULD BE SO NOW TO MAKE SURE IT DOESN'T CATCH ON FIRE I AM HAVING TO FIX THE PROBLEM MYSELF AND IT IS NOT CHEAP TO DO. *TR

KEY STICKS IN IGNITION WHEN ENTERED INTO PARK, AND WILL NOT COME OUT MOST OF THE TIME. THE ONLY WAY TO RELEASE THE KEY IS TO STICK FINGER INTO A HOLE IN THE STEERING COLUMN AND SLIDE THE MANUAL RELEASE SWITCH WITHIN THE STEERING WHEEL COLUMN. THERE ARE NO OBSTRUCTIONS WHICH PREVENT THE GEAR SHIFT LEVER FROM ENTERING THE FULL PARK POSITION. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY 2007 EQUINOX YESTERDAY WHEN I HAD TO HIT THE BREAKS A SURGE OF WATER CAME FROM UNDER MY BACKSEAT SOAKING ALL THE CARPET. AFTER THAT I LOOKED IN THE TRUNK. THE TRUNK WAS DRY SO I LIFTED IT UP TO CHECK BY THE SPARE TIRE AND FOUND A TON OF WATER. MY CAR HAS HAD A FUNKY SMELL FOR AWHILE NOW. I AM NOT SURE HOW LONG THE WATER HAS BEEN COLLECTING. BUT THIS IS A MAJOR HEALTH ISSUE. I HAVE TWO SMALL CHILDREN AND I HAVE NO IDEA HOW LONG WE HAVE BEEN BREATHING IN THIS MOLD AND MILDEW. GM PLEASE HELP WITH THIS ISSUE. I HAVE READ MANY OTHER CASES HERE ON THE INTERNET. THIS IS A MANUFACTURES DEFECT! *TR

ON 7-7-14, WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM THE DOCTORS' OFFICE, THE VEHICLE SLOWED DOWN. IT WAS LIKE I WAS DRIVING ON A WASHBOARD AND WAS VERY HARD TO STEER. WHEN I PULLED OFF THE ROAD AND WAS BACKING UP TO PARK, IT WAS AS THOUGH I HAD NO POWER STEERING. I TURNED THE IGNITION SWITCH OFF FOR A FEW SECONDS, AND WHEN I RESTARTED THE VEHICLE, I PRESSED ON THE BRAKE PEDAL AND ATTEMPTED TO MOVE THE SHIFT LEVER, IT WOULD NOT MOVE UNTIL I PRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AS HARD AS I COULD. THEN THE VEHICLE RESPONDED NORMALLY. THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. IN JUNE 2014, WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP IN AN EFFORT TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THEY READJUSTED THE BRAKE PEDAL SWITCH. I HAD NO PROBLEM UNTIL 7-7-14 . WE TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY QUOTED US A COST OF OVER $600.00 TO REPLACE THE TRACTION CONTROL MODULE BECAUSE THEY TOLD US THAT IT WAS UNRELATED TO THE FIRST INCIDENT. HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE WAS DOING THE SAME EXACT THING AS THE FIRST TIME WE TOOK IT IN. AFTER READING OTHER COMPLAINTS IDENTICAL TO MINE, I'M NOT VERY COMFORTABLE WITH WHAT I'M BEING TOLD REGARDING THIS PROBLEM. I'M THE PRIMARY DRIVER OF THIS VEHICLE, SINCE MY HUSBAND SUFFERED A STROKE ON 2-18-2013. TOO BAD YOU BUY A VEHICLE AND DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT. I HOPE NO ONE IS INJURED OR KILLED BEFORE SOMETHING IS DONE TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM. *TR

I NOTICED A STRONG SMELL OF FUEL COMING FROM MY VEHICLE, I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED IT AS A PROBLEM WITH MY FUEL PUMP. I LOOKED ONLINE BECAUSE I HAD HEARD OF A RECALL ASSOCIATED WITH CARS CATCHING ON FIRE DUE TO A FUEL PUMP DEFECT AND I BELIEVE MY VEHICLE IS AFFECTED BY THIS SAME DEFECT. I'M IN URGENT NEED OF THIS BEING REPAIRED BUT I'M BEING TOLD THAT THE PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL PUMP WILL NOT BE COVERED GIVEN THE RECALL IS REGIONAL TO SPECIFIC STATES. I AM DISPUTING THIS AS I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY MY VEHICLE CAN'T BE COVERED IF IT IS EXPERIENCING THE SAME DEFECT THAT WAS IDENTIFIED IN THOSE STATES. *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG INDICATOR WOULD ILLUMINATE WHEN THE SEAT WAS OCCUPIED. THE DEALER STATED THAT A SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AND THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000.

WHEN I PUT MY VEHICLE IN PARK AND TRY TO TURN OFF MY CAR, THE KEY GETS STUCK IN THE IGNITION MORE OFTEN THAN NOT. I THEN HAVE TO TURN IT ON, BACK UP, PULL FORWARD, AND TURN IT OFF AGAIN TO SEE IF IT WILL LET ME TAKE THE KEY OUT. SOMETIMES I HAVE TO DO THIS 5-6 TIMES! *TR

THE SPEEDOMETER STOPPED WORKING ,THE PASSENGER AIR BAGS ON AND OFF LIGHT WAS GOING ON THEN OFF NOW NOT WORKING AT ALL THE POWER SEARING WENT OUT AND THEN BACK WORKING AFTER THE DEALER TRIED TO CHARGE MY WIFE 800 PLUS FOR PARTS NOT NEEDED ALL THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON SENSE SHE FIRST BOUT IT OFF THE DEALER LOT BUT THEY REFUSED TO RESOLVE THE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS THEY REPLACED THE SPEED ODOMETER AND EVEN NOTED IT IN THERE PAPER WORK THAT THERE WAS BODY ELECTRICAL ` PROBLEMS WITH THIS EQUINOX AND YET STILL REFUSE TO ETHER FIX IT OR REPLACE THE CAR WITH A EQUAL VALUE ALL THESE PROBLEMS WAS GOING ON BEFORE THE WARRANTY EVER RAN OUT AND WE HAVE NOW BEEN FIGHTING WITH THE DEALERS AND GM OVER THIS NOW FOR OVER 7 YEARS IT EVEN HAD THE KEY SWITCH THAT WONT WORK SOME TIMES AND SOMETIMES IT WILL LOCK UP AND CUT OFF WHEN GOING DOWN THE ROAD ITS DONE THIS TWICE NOW IN THE PAST YEAR I DON'T FEEL LIKE I NOR MY WIFE [XXX] SHOULD PAY TO FIX PROBLEMS ON THIS CAR DUE TO THE FACT THAT IT HAS ALL BEEN HAPPENING SINCE WE BOUT THE CAR NEW WITH LESS THAN A 100 MILES ON THIS CAR THE DEALERS KEEP SAYING THEY CANT MAKE ANY CODES COME UP BUT YET WHEN WE GO IN TO THEM WE SHOW THEM WHAT'S GOING ON WITH IT SCENE IT WAS NEW IM SICK OF THEM LIEING TO US AND NOT FIXING THERE PROBLEMS THEY KNOW THAT ARE WRONG WITH THIS TRUCK IF THEY NEW IT HAD ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WITH THE TRUCK WHEN THEY DID THE WORK ON THE TRUCK WHEN IT WAS NEW WHY DIDN'T THEY FIX IT INSTEAD OF LIEING AND COVERING UP IT AND LIEING TO MY WIFE IV HAD TO TAKE OFF FROM MY WORK NOW FOR A WEEK FIGHTING THESE PEOPLE AND IM SICK OF IT AND STILL HAVE TO PAY MORE MONEY OUT OFF MY POCKET OVER ALL THIS ISN'T FAR WHEN WE HAVE THE PAPER WORK FROM THEM STATING IT HAS ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS FROM DAY ONE. *TR

WHILE DRIVING HOME MY CAR SUDDENLY BECAME VERY VERY HARD TO STEER I COULD NOT MAKE RIGHT OR LEFT TURNS WITHOUT EXTREME DIFFICULTY TURNING THE WHEEL. IN FACT IT FELT LIKE THE POWER STEERING HAD COMPLETELY WENT OUT IN THE 2007 EQUINOX. WHEN I WENT TO THE CHEVROLET GARAGE THEY WERE NO HELP BUT TO TELL ME THEY WOULD NOT DO A THING UNTIL I PAID $89 THEY WOULD NOT EVEN SAY IF THIS WAS AN ISSUE EXPERIENCED BY ANYONE ELSE IN THE PAST OR ABOUT HOW MUCH IT COULD EVEN COST IF THEY FOUND SOMETHING. WHEN I LEFT THE CAR STARTED TO ACT CORRECTLY BUT THE STABILITRAK SERVICE LIGHT CAME OFF AND ON AGAIN WE ASKED ABOUT THIS AT THE GARAGE THEY WOULD NOT COMMENT ON THAT UNTIL WE PAID $89.00. AS I DID NOT FEEL SAFE AT ALL DRIVING THE CAR I REMEMBERED ANOTHER PLACE HERE IN TOWN THAT HANDLED CARS AND THE REBUILDING OF MOST ANY MAIN FEATURED ITEMS FROM MOTORS TO TRANSMISSIONS AND WENT THERE THE AUTO MECHANIC TOOK THE CAR FOR A DRIVE OF COURSE THE STABILITRAK SERVICE LIGHT DID NOT COME ON BUT THE STEERING ONCE AGAIN ACTED UP. HE IMMEDIATE INFORMED ME THAT IT WAS THE POWER STEERING MOTOR AND WE ORDERED IT AND HAD IT INSTALLED LAST WEEK JUNE 20TH. THE GARAGE HAD A LOT OF TROUBLE GETTING THE PART BECAUSE THEY HAD TO DEAL WITH A DEALER HERE IN TOWN AND THEY GAVE THEM A VERY HARD TIME. DURING THIS WAIT TO GET THE PART AND HAVE IT INSTALLED THE STEERING ONLY ACTED UP DURING THE COLD MONTHS BUT ONCE THE WEATHER WARMED UP I DID NOT HAVE A PROBLEM AND THE LIGHT ISSUE STOPPED. WITH THE NEW MOTOR THE CAR DROVE WELL THIS WEEKEND BUT NOW THE LIGHT HAS AGAIN COME ON FOR THE STABILITRAK SERVICE. THIS IS SO VERY ANNOYING AS I HAVE NO FAITH IN THE DEALERSHIPS HERE AS ALL THEY CAN SAY WE NEED $89 TO EVEN STEP OVER TO LOOK AT IT. BELIEVE ME WHEN I SAY I WILL NEVER BUY A CHEVY AGAIN.

THE KEY WILL NOT RELEASE FROM THE IGNITION WHEN THE CAR IS IN PARK AND TURNED OFF. THIS HAPPENS ABOUT ONE OUT OF EVERY FIVE TIMES THE CAR PARKS. I NORMALLY HAVE TO WAIT ABOUT 1 MINUTE FOR THE KEY TO RELEASE. SOMETIMES, IT WILL STILL NOT RELEASE AND I HAVE TO TURN THE CAR BACK ON, PUT IT IN REVERSE AND GO A COUPLE FEET, THEN DRIVE FORWARD A COUPLE FEET, PUT IT IN PARK FOR THE KEY TO RELEASE. I MAY HAVE TO DO THIS 3-4 TIMES BEFORE, THE KEY WILL FINALLY RELEASE. *TR

I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE HEADLIGHTS IN THIS CAR AT LEAST 7 TIMES TO DATE. SINCE THE CAR WAS ABOUT A YEAR OLD, THERE HAS ALWAYS BEEN A HEAVY BUILD-UP OF CONDENSATION INSIDE THE HEADLAMP ASSEMBLY....WHICH IS VERY POORLY DESIGNED. THE ENTIRE ASSEMBLY FROM THE LEFT SIDE OF THE CAR TO THE RIGHT HAS TO BE TAKEN OFF TO ACCESS THE HEADLAMPS. OBVIOUSLY, THE ASSEMBLY DESIGN DOES NOT SEAL SUFFICIENTLY TO KEEP OUT MOISTURE. *TR

SOMETIMES WHEN YOU PARK THE KEYS WILL NOT COME OUT OF THE IGNITION. YOU HAVE TO KEEP STARTING THE VEHICLE, TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL BACK AND FORTH, OR SLAMMING THE SHIFTER INTO PARK IT HAPPENS ABOUT 12 TIMES PER WEEK! ALSO THE TRAC CONTROL LIGHT WILL POP ON AND THEN HEAL ON ITS OWN, STAY OFF AS LONG AS A 16 MONTHS THEN GO BACK ON FOR A WEEK OR TWO THEN BACK OFF! WEIRD. *TR

I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE SINCE 2009 AND HAVE HAD MULTIPLE ISSUES, RECURRING FREQUENTLY. THE 2 MAIN CONCERNS ARE STUCK KEY IN IGNITION AND STABILITRACK AND ELECTRICAL MALFUNCTIONS. THERE IS A DEFINITE ISSUE WITH THE IGNITION IN THESE VEHICLES, NOT ONLY DOES MY KEY GET STUCK, IT HAS ALSO BEEN KNOCKED OUT WHEN HITTING A BUMP. I OWN A COBALT TOO THAT HAS BEEN RECALLED AND MY EQUINOX HAS THE SAME ISSUES WITH IGNITION THIS IS DANGEROUS AND FRUSTRATING!! IN ADDITION, MY STABILITRACK HAS BEEN SERVICED TWICE SINCE I HAVE OWNED. THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM GOES CRAZY AND LIGHTS UP WITH AIRBAG SERVICE, STABILITRACK SERVICE AND ABS BRAKE WARNINGS. I JUST SPENT 600 ON BRAKES AND ROTORS AND IT STILL LIGHTS UP. THE CAR HAS BEEN CHECKED AND NONE OF THESE WARNINGS ARE ACCURATE. THESE LIGHTS COME ON AND OFF RANDOMLY AND HAVE FOR YEARS. THE FUEL GAUGE WILL ROTATE BACKWARDS. THE OIL INDICATOR THAT TRACKS OIL LIFE RESETS ITSELF AT RANDOM. I AM ANGRY! THESE ISSUES NEED ADDRESSED. ARE WE NOT TAKEN SERIOUSLY BECAUSE NO ONE DIED? THERE ARE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME NATURE AS MINE AND YET NO RECALL? SAD THAT ACTION IS TAKEN ONLY AFTER SOMEONE IS KILLED! GM NEEDS TO DO RIGHT BY PEOPLE WHO SPEND THEIR HARD EARNED MONEY TO PURCHASE THESE VEHICLES. I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN PRO CHEVY BUT NOT ANYMORE. THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE AND QUALITY SUCKS. *JS

TL *THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WATER COLLECTED INSIDE THE SPARE TIRE WHEEL WELL. AS A RESULT, THE AROMA OF MILDEW WAS PRESENT IN THE VEHICLE'S INTERIOR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AND THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 68,000.

ON TWO OCCASIONS THE POWER STEERING HAS GONE OUT WHILE I STARTED MY CAR. EACH TIME THIS OCCURRED I WAS UNABLE TO STEER THE VEHICLE. IT WAS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AS IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO MAKE RIGHT AND LEFT HAND TURNS.

I PURCHASED THIS UNIT IN 2010. THIS IS RELATED TO THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. THE SIGNAL OF THE AIRBAG APPEARS OFF EVEN IF THERE IS A PASSENGER SEATED. THIS STARTED TO HAPPEN IN 2013. I TOOK IT FOR A DIAGNOSTIC AT A DEALER AND THEY SAID IT WAS A FAULTY SENSOR. VERY EXPENSIVE REPAIR. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS SITUATION BUT WHEN I GAVE MY VIN # IT APPEARS MY VEHICLE IS NOT INCLUDED (NHTSA CAMPAIGN #07V344000). *TR

WHEN I TURN THE VEHICLE OFF, THE IGNITION KEY STAYS STUCK. EVEN IF I TURN IT BACK AND FORTH IT DOES NOT COME OUT, I HAVE TO WAIT ABOUT TWO MINUTES BEFORE I CAN TAKE IT OUT. SOMETIMES, IF I MOVE THE KEY EXTREMELY FAST, I AM ABLE TO TAKE IT OUT ON THE FIRST TRY. I HAVE SEEN THIS COMPLAINT ON THIS VEHICLE BEFORE BUT THERE IS STILL NO RECALL. *TR

POWER STEERING MODULE WENT OUT AND I NEED THAT MODULE, I BOUGHT IT USED AND I DID NOT KNOW ANYTHING OF A RECALL I WAS NOT TOLD ANYTHING ABOUT IT. *TR

WHEN TURNING OFF THE VEHICLE THE KEY WILL NOT RELEASE FROM THE IGNITION AND CAN NOT BE REMOVED. AFTER ABOUT 30 SECONDS YOU CAN HEAR A CLICK AND THEN THE KEY WILL RELEASE AND CAN BE REMOVED, BUT UNTIL YOU HEAR THE CLICK IT CAN NOT BE REMOVED FROM THE IGNITION. *TR

POWER STEERING STOPPED WORKING. IT WAS WORKING FINE, I PARKED WENT IN TO SCHOOL TO GET DAUGHTER CAME OUT AND IT WASN'T WORKING. SERVICE STABILITRAK LIGHT ON. *TR

I HAVE NOTICED A STRONG GAS SMELL AFTER DRIVING MY CAR. I AM NOW SCARED TO DRIVE IT & DON'T HAVE THE MONEY FOR AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR. *TR

VEHICLE SMELLED OF GASOLINE ODORS UNDERNEATH BECOMING WORSE DAILY UNTIL LEAKAGE WAS OBVIOUS BY GASOLINE PUDDLES ON GROUND DIRECTLY UNDER VEHICLE. AFTER NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS TO FIND A RECALL OR A SOLUTION TO MY PROBLEM I FINALLY RECEIVED INFORMATION FROM LOCAL GM DEALERS THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS CONCERNING MY COMPLAINT EVEN THOUGH SEVERAL COMPLAINTS SIMILAR TO MINE HAD BEEN MADE. SO, I WAS LEFT WITH NO OTHER ALTERNATIVE BUT TO ATTEMPT TO FIX THE PROBLEM MYSELF. AFTER THE HOSES, CLAMPS, RESTRAINTS, AND TANK WAS REMOVED IT WAS APPARENT THAT I COULD NOT FIX IT SO I HAD A MECHANIC TO COME OUT, PROCEED WITH REMOVING AND REPLACING THE LEAKING LINES AND HOSES AND REASSEMBLING THE TANK BACK ONTO THE VEHICLE'S UNDERCARRIAGE. OF COURSE THIS WOULD END UP COSTING ME 9 ARMS AND 3 LEGS BUT AT THAT TIME THE CHEVROLET DEALER IN TUPELO MS. INFORMED ME THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL IN EFFECT FOR MY PROBLEM BUT THAT HIS STAFF WOULD BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO CHECK OUT MY PROBLEM AND FIX AND REPLACE ANY BROKEN AND OR DEFECTED PARTS BUT THEY WOULD ONLY DO SO IF AND WHEN I DELIVERED MY VEHICLE TO THEIR SHOP, ALSO AT MY EXPENSE. A FEW MONTHS AFTER ALL THIS HAPPENED AND A FEW MONTHS AGO, GM SENT OUT A BROCHURE STATING THAT THERE WAS INDEED A RECALL REGARDING MY SPECIFIC PROBLEM AND THAT I SHOULD TAKE IMMEDIATE ACTION TO GET MY VEHICLE TO THE GM DEALER (CLOSEST ONE FROM PONTOTOC BEING TUPELO - DEALERSHIP NAME WITHHELD) WHERE IT WOULD BE PROFESSIONALLY REPAIRED FREE OF ANY CHARGES TO ME. IF THERE INDEED IS OR EVER WAS A RECALL COVERING MY PROBLEM, SHOULDN'T THERE ALSO BE A REINSTATEMENT FEE ASSOCIATED WITH IT FOR VICTIMS THAT HAVE BEEN MISINFORMED OR WHO'S PROBLEM INITIATED BEFORE THE ACTUAL RECALL WENT INTO EFFECT OR IS THIS JUST ANOTHER WAY THE AUTO COMPANIES MAKE MORE MONEY OFF THE SAME INDIVIDUALS THAT PAID THE PRICE TO BAIL THEM OUT IN THE FIRST PLACE? CONCERNED CITIZEN (TAXPAYER). *TR

VERY STRONG SMELL OF GAS IN MY GARAGE. MOVED MY VEHICLE OUTSIDE AND LET THE GARAGE AIR. PULLED MY CAR BACK INTO THE GARAGE AFTER A PERIOD OF TIME CLOSED THE GARAGE DOOR AND THE SMELL OF GAS WAS APPARENTLY COMING FROM THE RIGHT SIDE WHERE THE GAS CAP IS LOCATED. TOOK CAR TO CHEVROLET DEALER WAS TOLD MY GAS TANK WAS CRACKED COST WOULD BE $1500.00 GOT A SECOND OPINION WAS TOLD THE RETURN LINE OF THE FUEL PUMP WAS LEAKING AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. COST WAS $1068.00. *TR

I HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS OFF AND ON WITH THE IGNITION, THE KEY GETS STUCK IN THE IGNITION AND I HAVE TO USUALLY WAIT A FEW MINUTES AND MOVE THE GEARS WHILE IN PARK TO GET THE IGNITION TO LET GO OF THE KEY. MY WORRY IS THE FACT THAT GM HAS RECALLS CURRENTLY ON IGNITION PROBLEMS WHICH HAVE CAUSED THE VEHICLES TO STOP WHILE DRIVING. MY VEHICLE ALTHOUGH GM; IS NOT CURRENTLY ON THE RECALL LIST BUT IT SEEMS THAT THIS PROBLEM I AM HAVING CAN BE IN RELATION TO THIS SORT OF THING. *TR

CAR WOULD NOT START EVEN THOUGH THE BATTERY WAS FULL. WARNING LIGHT SAID "STABILTRAK" NOT WORKING. HAVE TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED IN TO REPAIR/REPLACE ALL ELECTRICS IN THE STEERING COLUMN. *TR

AFTER VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF. THE KEY CANNOT BE REMOVED OUT OF THE IGNITION. I HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH THIS ISSUE FOR YEARS! IN ORDER TO PULL THE KEY OUT. YOU MUST EITHER TURN THE VEHICLE ON THEN TURN IT BACK OFF SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE FINALLY THE IGNITION ALLOWS YOU TO REMOVE THE KEY. THE OTHER WAY IT ALLOWS YOU TO PULL OUT THE KEY IS BY TURNING THE KEY WITHOUT TURNING THE VEHICLE ON THEN MOVING THE GEARS FROM PARK TO REVERSE THEN BACK TO PARK. IT JUST CONTINUES TO GET WORSE AND WORSE. IT IS A HUGE CONCERN TO ME BECAUSE I AM AFRAID THAT I WOULD BE UNABLE TO PULL OUT THE KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID IT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE. *TR

THE IGNITION WILL NOT RELEASE THE KEY. I HAVE TRIED THE SHIFTER, SIT AND WAIT IN MY CAR TO SEE IF IT WILL RELEASE WITH TIME, STEP ON THE BRAKE FOR A LONG TIME THEN TRY TO TAKE THE KEY OFF AND HOPE IT WILL RELEASE THE KEY. *TR I CAN'T KEEP SITTING IN MY CAR WAITING FOR A MIRACLE TO HAPPEN WHEN I NEED TO LOG IN TO WORK AND AM STUCK IN THE CAR BECAUSE THE KEY WON'T COME OUT OF THE IGNITION. THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED. WITH AZ WEATHER BEING SO HOT SITTING IN THE CAR WAITING FOR THE RELEASE OF THE KEY IS MAKING IT HOT TO BREATHE. DON'T WANT TO ROLL DOWN THE WINDOWS BECAUSE I NEED THE KEY IN TO GET THE WINDOWS BACK UP. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. THIS HAS GONE ON FOR SEVERAL MONTHS I NEED SOMETHING DONE ABOUT THIS. THIS IS DANGEROUS. *TR

IGNITION LOCK UP, COULD NOT TURN OFF IGNITION. MOTOR STILL RUNNING, HAD TO TURN WHEEL BACK AND FORTH TO FIND A SPOT TO TURN OFF IGNITION CONTINUING PROBLEM. WE HAVE ALREADY BROUGHT TO DEALER SHIP TO HAVE PROBLEM CORRECTED. THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO FIND PROBLEM. *TR

SEVERAL TIMES ,I WAS NOT ABLE TO REMOVE THE KEYS FROM IGNITION SWITCH,,THE VEHICLE COULD NOT BE SHUT ALL THE WAY OFF.

I HAVE A DIFFERENT TYPE OF IGNITION SWITCH PROBLEM. I CAN'T REMOVE THE KEY WHEN THE CAR IS IN PARK. THIS STARTED MAYBE 1 YEAR AGO. I SWITCHED OUT KEYS (USING MY SECOND KEY) AND IT WORKED FINE UNTIL THE LAST 2 MONTHS WHEN THE PROBLEM STARTED AGAIN. IT DOESN'T HAPPEN ALL THE TIME. WHEN IT DOES, I HAVE TO TURN ON THE IGNITION, PUT IT IN GEAR AND DRIVE FORWARD A FEW FEET AND THEN PUT IT IN REVERSE AND GO BACK TO WHERE I NEED TO PARK AND TURN OFF THE KEY. MAYBE IT WILL WORK, BUT THERE HAVE BEEN TIMES WHEN I'VE HAD TO DO THIS EXERCISE 10 TIMES BEFORE I CAN REMOVE THE KEY. JUST THIS MORNING, I HAD TO DO IT 5 TIMES AT A GAS STATION AND THE PEOPLE NEXT TO ME PROBABLY THOUGHT I WAS CRAZY!!! *JS

MY CHEVROLET EQUINOX POWER STEERING LOCKED UP WHILE BACKING OUT OF THE DRIVE WAY. GM IS RECALLING CERTAIN VEHICLES WITH THE POWER STEERING LOCKING UP. IT BOTHERS ME THAT CERTAIN VEHICLES ARE BEING RECALLED WHEN OTHERS ARE NOT WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE GONE ONLINE TO FIND OTHER PEOPLE THAT HAVE ENCOUNTERED THE SAME ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE. IT IS VERY INCONVENIENT TO HAVE TO COME OUT OF POCKET TO PAY FOR A REPLACEMENT GM SHOULD HAVE TAKEN CARE OF. *TR

ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF AGO, MY POWER STEERING WENT OUT ON MY EQUINOX. I HAVEN'T HAD ANY ACCIDENT DUE TO THIS BUT I FIND IT WEIRD THAT THE RECALL OF THE GM AUTOMOBILES HAVE THE SAME DEFECTS AND PROBLEMS AS MINES. IVE ALSO HAD PROBLEMS WITH MY ENGINE AS WELL WHEN THE STIBILITRAC LIKE CAME ON. I TOOK IT TO CHEVY BUT THE DIDN'T HAVE THE PART AND THEY SAID THE WOULD ORDER IT. I NEVER HEARD ANYTHING ELSE FROM THEM. PLEASE ADVISE ME ON WHAT TO DO BECAUSE IF ITS A DEFECT. I NEED TO GO GET IT FIX. IM STILL HAVING THE PROBLEM. *TR

THE IGNITION LOCKED UP. IT CONTINUES TO JAM UP SOMETIMES AT UNPREDICTABLE TIMES. ON THIS MORNING THE SIGNAL FOR SERVICE AIR BAG LIT UP. I CONTINUED DRIVING AND AFTER A FEW MINUTES IT TURNED OFF. I TOOK THE VEHICLE INTO MY LOCAL DEALER ([XXX]) ON MARCH 11, 2014, WHERE I WAS INFORMED THE AIR BAG MAY NOT FUNCTION IF I AM IN AN ACCIDENT. THE SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT HAS CONTINUED TO LIGHT UP MORE FREQUENTLY. PRESENTLY IT TURNS ON ALMOST EVERY DAY OR EVERY 2 DAYS. CONCERNED THE AIR BAG WILL NOT WORK WHEN IT IS NEEDED. I REALIZE THAT AS THE OWNER OF THE VEHICLE I AM RESPONSIBLE FOR THE MAINTENANCE OF THE CAR ON PARTS THAT ARE USED AND WORN, BUT IN THIS CASE, THE MALFUNCTION OF AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE VEHICLE ASSOCIATED TO THE SAFETY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE VEHICLE SHOULD BE A STANDARD FUNCTIONING PART THAT SHOULD WORK THROUGHOUT THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE.

PASSENGER SIDE SEAT AIRBAG SOMETIMES DOES NOT COME ON. CAN'T SEEM TO FIND THE PROBLEM. KIND OF A NERVE RACKING SITUATION. STEERING COLUMN DOES NOT LOCK WHEN THE VEHICLE IS SHUT OFF AND THE KEY REMOVED. NOT A GOOD FEELING WITH ALL THAT IS GOING ON WITH GM IGNITION SWITCH PROBLEMS.

WHEN A PASSENGER IS IN THE SEAT THE AIR BAG IS OFF A LOT OF THE TIME JUST LIKE GM RECALL #07174 NHTSA ID # 07V344000. BACK WHEN IT STARTED DEALER SAID IT WOULD BE HARD TO FIND THE PROBLEM NOW THEY SAY THERE IS NO CURRENT RECALL ON THIS CAR. *TR

MY 2007 CHEVY EQUINOX IS GIVING ME PROBLEMS WHEN I AM GOING UP A HILL. MY CAR HESITATES ALMOST EVERY TIME WHEN GOING UP A HILL WHAT I MEAN WHEN I GO UP THE HILL IT IS LIKE MY CAR IS GOING TO SHUT OFF. I HAVE HAD IT TO THE GARAGE SEVERAL TIME IN THE LAST MONTH FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF THE FUEL PUMP AND THEN THE O2 SENOR WENT BAD RIGHT AFTER I HAD THE FUEL PUMP REPLACED IS WHEN THE HESITATION STARTED. THEY JUST REPLACES THE SPARK PLUG AND THAT DIDN'T HELP IT AND THEY CAN FIND ANYTHING ELSE WRONG WITH IT.

THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER TO HAVE A DIAGNOSTIC PERFORMED. THE CONTACT DID NOT KNOW THE NAME OF THE PART THAT FAILED WITHIN THE STEERING SYSTEM. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURE WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 30,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE POWER STEERING ASSIST FAILED AND THE STABILITRAC WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED ABOUT THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE AND VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE VEHICLE JUST STARTED TO SLOW DOWN, IT WAS DIFFICULT TO STEER TO GET OFF THE ROAD. IT FELT LIKE THE CAR WAS LOCKING UP. THERE WAS A STRONG BURNING SMELL. I WAS CONCERNED THAT THERE WOULD BE A FIRE. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT GO BACKWARD OR FORWARD. A TOW TRUCK HAD TO BE CALLED. THE DIAGNOSIS WAS THE POWER BRAKE BOOSTER, WHICH THEY REPLACED. TWO WEEKS LATER THE CAR LOCKED UP AGAIN. NOW THEY ARE SAYING THE ENTIRE BRAKING AND STABILIZER SYSTEM HAS TO BE REPLACED. *TR

I AM SMELLING A STRONG GAS SMELL WHILE MY VEHICLE IS PARKED. I HAVE READ THAT OTHER PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE READ THAT IT IS A PROBLEM WITH A CRACKED FUEL MODULE. IS THERE A RECALL ON THIS? I AM ON A VERY TIGHT BUDGET AND CANNOT AFFORD A HUGE REPAIR BILL. I AM GOING TO TAKE IT TO A LOCAL REPAIR SHOP FOR A DIAGNOSIS AND ESTIMATE FOR REPAIR. IF THERE IS A RECALL, COULD SOMEONE SEND ME INFORMATION ON THIS? *TR

THE STEERING COLUMN QUIT WORKING ON OUR 2007 EQUINOX (CONFIRMED BY CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP). CAR HAD TO BE TOWED BECAUSE OF DANGER WHEN DRIVING. CAR HAS FEWER THAN 50,000 MILES. DEALERSHIP SAID THIS WAS A COMMON PROBLEM. THE COLUMN WOULD QUIT WORKING AND SIGNAL COULD NOT GET TO STEERING MOTOR. APPROXIMATE COST - 728.00 NOT INCLUDING TOW CHARGE. *TR

WHENEVER THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT IS OCCUPIED, THE DRIVER SHOULD ALWAYS CHECK THE AIRBAG INDICATOR TO SEE IF THE AIRBAG IS ON OR OFF. IF IT IS NOT CORRECT FOR THE SITUATION, THE PASSENGER SHOULD BE MOVED TO A DIFFERENT SEAT. THIS CAN INCREASE THE RISK OF INJURY TO A SEAT OCCUPANT DURING CERTAIN CRASH CONDITIONS. NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 07V344000 MY FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG SAYS THAT IT IS TURNED OFF EVEN WHEN I AM SITTING IN PASSANGER SEAT, THIS HAS GONE ON FOR SEVERAL MONTHS NOW. IT SAYS "SERVICE AIR BAG SOON" I DID SOME RESEARCH ON THE VEHICLE AND PROBLEM AND IT SAYS THAT THIS IS A RECALL ON THE CHEVY EQUINOX. I CALL CHEVROLET AND THEY SAID THAT MY VIN DOES NOT MATCH ANY CURRENT RECALLS. THANK YOU *TR

I HAD TO JUMP START MY VEHICLE AND MY POWER STEERING WAS NOT WORKING. *TR

THE TRACTION ENGINE AND STABILITY ERROR MESSAGE STAY ILLUMINATED ON MY CAR.THE OTHER DAY I WAS AT AN INTERSECTION WHERE THE CROSS TRAFFIC DOESN'T STOP . WHEN I DECIDED TO GO THE CAR WOULD HARDLY MOVE ALMOST LEAVING ME IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD WHERE I COULD HAVE BEEN HIT. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES, IT FEELS AS IF IT'S A FIVE SPED AND YOUR TRYING TO TAKE OFF IN 3RD GEAR...VERY DANGEROUS! I TOOK IT TO A CHEVY DEALER BUT THEY COULDN'T CLEAR THE CODES . SOMETIMES THE CAR HAS POWER AND SOMETIMES IT DON'T. THIS IS MY [XXX] YEAR OLD DAUGHTERS CAR AND SHE DRIVES MY OTHER 4 GIRLS TO SCHOOL . I GIVE HER MY CAR BECAUSE I KNOW THIS ISN'T SAFE. I SEE THERE ARE HUNDREDS IF NOT THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WHO ARE HAVING THESE ISSUES. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BEFORE SOMEBODY DIES! I HAVE ONLY OWNED THIS VEHICLE FOR 4 MONTHS ,THIS IS MY 2ND CHEVY I HAVE OWNED AND IT WILL MOST CERTAINLY BE MY LAST. *TR PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

I WAS DRIVING AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE STEERING GOT REALLY HARD I'VE BEEN DOING RESEARCH AND IT APPEARS THERE HAS BEEN MORE CARS LIKE MINE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM DEFINITELY THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL OF SOMEWHAT PLUS THE DEALERSHIP IS CHARGING ME $750 FOR REPAIRS. *TR

ENGINE POWER REDUCED LIGHT CAME ON WHILE WE WERE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 55 MPH. MY VEHICLE DROPPED IN SPEED TO 25 MPH AND WOULD NOT PICK UP SPEED. MY FAMILY AND I ALMOST WERE HIT FROM BEHIND BY AN 18 WHEELER. I LOOKED THIS UP ON THE CHEVY FORUM AND FOUND THAT THERE ARE MANY OTHER CHEVY OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. PLEASE LOOK INTO TO IT AND ISSUE A RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE TRACTION CONTROL WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED WITH A REDUCTION IN ENGINE POWER.

THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,000 MILES.

HEATER IS BLOWING COLD AIR ONLY. UNABLE TO DEFROST FRONT WINDSHIELD. THIS IS VERY HAZARDOUS, AS MY WINTER DRIVING VISIBILITY IS LIMITED. SUSPECT AIR BLENDER DOOR FAILURE. THIS PROBLEM WAS ADDRESSED BY TSB 11135 (MAY 30, 2012); HOWEVER IT ONLY APPLIES TO 2006 CHEVY EQUINOX. MY CAR IS A 2007 CHEVY EQUINOX. I SPOKE WITH GM AND THEY CONFIRMED THE TSB WAS ONLY FOR THE 2006 MODEL YEAR. MY RESEARCH LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THAT THE 2007 MODEL YEAR SHOULD ALSO BE INCLUDED. MY HEATER PARTS MIGHT BE FROM LATE MODEL 2006. *TR

I TOOK MY CAR INTO A POWER CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP BACK IN SEPTEMBER, THEY SAID THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL FOR THE COILS/SPARK PLUGS. THEY FIXED THE ISSUE, AS MY CAR HAD BEEN STALLING AS I ACCELERATED. NOW, RECENTLY MY ELECTRIC STABILITY TRACTION LIGHT CAME ON, ALONG WITH MY ENGINE AND "SERVICE BRAKES" LIGHT. I HAD MY BRAKES DONE BACK IN OCTOBER AT THE SAME TIME AS THEY REPLACED THE COIL. MY CAR IS STARTING TO STALL AND DO THE SAME AS IT WAS BACK IN OCTOBER. I AM NOT SURE WHY CHEVY IS NOT RECALLING OR SENDING OUT NOTICES ABOUT THESE ISSUES. IT'S HAZARDOUS. I CONTACTED A LAWYER. *TR

VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED AND REGISTERED IN MICHIGAN. CAR STARTED SMELLING STRONG OF GASOLINE. FUEL STARTED LEAKING OUT OF THE VEHICLE. NO ACCIDENT OR DAMAGE HAD OCCURRED PRIOR TO THE GAS TANK LEAKING. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND THE FUEL PUMP/FUEL MODULE HAD TO BE REPLACED. IT WAS FOUND THAT THERE WAS A CRACK IN THE FUEL PUMP, CAUSING IT TO LEAK GAS AND COULD OF CAUSED A FIRE. THE RECALL NUMBER #12V459000 SHOULD INCLUDE MICHIGAN ON THE STATES LISTED. I HAVE JUST RECENTLY (WITHIN THE WEEK) HAD THIS FUEL PUMP REPLACED, AND THE DEALERSHIP DID NOT KNOW OF THIS RECALL AND I HAD TO PAY TO HAVE IT FIXED. *TR

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 57,500.

I LOST POWER STEERING IN MY CAR. I HAD NO WARNING TO INDICATE THERE WAS A PROBLEM. I WAS DRIVING AND IT WENT OUT. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND I COULD HAVE CRASHED. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON THIS, MY POWER STEERING MODULE FAILED. I HAD TO REPLACE IT WHICH WAS VERY COSTLY. I HAVE READ THAT THERE HAS BEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON THIS YEAR AND MODEL WITH THE SAME ISSUE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT WAS SITTING AT A TRAFFIC STOP WHEN ANOTHER VEHICLE CRASHED INTO HIS REAR. THE IMPACT ABRUPTLY PUSHED THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE FORWARD, CAUSING HIM TO CRASH INTO THE PRECEDING VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED MINOR NECK AND BACK INJURIES, THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE PASSENGER SUSTAINED FACIAL LACERATIONS FROM THE SHATTERED REAR WINDOW AND THE DRIVER OF THE SECOND VEHICLE SUSTAINED MINOR INJURIES TO THE NECK. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED ABOUT THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 117,000.

UPON SMOKE TEST OF FUEL SYSTEM IT WAS FOUND THAT FUEL IS LEAKING FROM FUEL LINE WHERE THE FUEL LINE MEETS THE FUEL PUMP ON TOP OF THE FUEL TANK. I WAS ADVISED THAT THIS IS A SAFETY ITEM AND TO SEE IF THIS IS AN ITEM UNDER WARRANTY THROUGH THE DEALERSHIP. I DID RECEIVE A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN FOR THIS ISSUE. *TR

AFTER PARKING MY CAR, I STEPPED OUTSIDE AND NOTICED THAT MY CAR SMELLED LIKE GASOLINE. WHEN I TOOK MY CAR TO THE MECHANIC, THEY TOLD ME THAT THE FUEL PUMP HAD A CRACK AND WAS LEAKING FUEL WHICH WAS CAUSING THE SMELL AND A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS SITUATION. THE MECHANIC SAID THAT HE HAD SEEN THIS BEFORE WITH OTHER CHEVROLET EQUINOX VEHICLES LIKE MINE. I ASKED THE MECHANIC TO FIX THE VEHICLE AND I WOULD INVESTIGATE IF THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS PARTICULAR MAKE/MODEL. IT SEEMS IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND THE VEHICLE WAS PART OF A REGIONAL RECALL BY GENERAL MOTORS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE TRACTION WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED WITH A REDUCTION IN ENGINE POWER. THE VEHICLE WAS MANEUVERED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WHERE THE ENGINE WAS TURNED OFF. UPON RESTARTING, THE VEHICLE RESUMED NORMALLY. THE FAILURE RECURRED SPORADICALLY WHENEVER THE VEHICLE WAS IN OPERATION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE PROBLEM. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 82,000.

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK ON A BUSY INTERSTATE GOING NEARLY 60 MPH WHEN MY TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON, I LOST ENGINE POWER, MY CAR JERKED BECAUSE OF THIS AND I WAS NEARLY HIT FROM BEHIND. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY PROBLEM AND SHOULD BE FIXED. AFTER READING OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE, WHEN IS GM GOING TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS OBVIOUS PROBLEM FOR THE CONSUMER? *TR

ONCE AGAIN, DRIVING ON A BUSY HIGHWAY MY STABILITRAC LIGHT CAME ON AND MY ENGINE WAS POWERED DOWN. MY VEHICLE IS ONCE AGAIN IN THE SHOP HAVING THE THROTTLE BOTTLE REPLACED. THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED, THE MECHANICS JUST CLEANED THE PART, THIS TIME IT IS BEING REPLACED. WHEN YOUR VEHICLE POWERS DOWN, YOU LOSE THE ABILITY TO SAFELY MANEUVER YOUR CAR- POTENTIALLY CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, FUEL FUMES WERE EMITTED INTO THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT AFTER INSPECTING THE VEHICLE, HE NOTICED THAT FUEL WAS LEAKING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL CONNECTION TO THE FUEL PUMP WAS BROKEN. AS A RESULT, THE FUEL PUMP NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 81,000.

NOTICED A STRONG SMELL OF GAS COMING FROM THE VEHICLE WHEN PARKED. HAD TO MOVE IT OUT OF GARAGE AS SMELL WAS EXTREMELY STRONG AND SPREAD THROUGHOUT MY TWO STORY HOME. I TOOK CAR IN TO INDEPENDENT GARAGE REPAIR FOR SERVICE ONE MILE FROM MY HOME IMMEDIATELY ON 09/27/2013 AT 06:00 P.M. CLOSEST DEALERSHIP IS NINE MILES FROM MY HOME. FOUND THAT THE PLASTIC PART OF THE FUEL PUMP MODULE WAS CRACKED AND COST $545.23 FOR A NEW FUEL PUMP MODULE AND $350.00 LABOR. TOTAL COST INCLUDING SUPPLY FEES AND TAX, $942.06. FOUND OUT THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS VERY SAME ISSUE. I WILL BE CALLING GM FOR REIMBURSEMENT AND CAN ALREADY ENVISION THEIR REFUSAL AS THEY CLAIM THEY MUST INSPECT VEHICLE AND DO THE REPAIR. I LIVE IN TEXAS AND AM THE ORIGINAL PURCHASER OF THIS VEHICLE IN TEXAS. *TR

ON 1/28/13 I REPLACED THE THROTTLE BODY AT GM CERTIFIED DEALER. TRUCK WAS DIAGNOSED WITH CODE P2135 FOR FAILED THROTTLE BODY AND CONNECTOR. WHILE DRIVING MY 2007 CHEVY EQUINOX IT DISPLAYED SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL, SERVICE STABILTRAK, ENGINE POWER REDUCING AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. ON 7/5/13 I RETURNED MY TRUCK BACK TO THE DEALER. THEY DIAGNOSED THE TRUCK AGAIN AND REPLACED THE PART A SECOND TIME. NOW ON 8/19/13 THE TRUCK WAS BACK AT THE DEALER FOR THIRD TIME AND SAME ISSUE. DEALER DIAGNOSED MY TRUCK AND COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG AT THE TIME AFTER I COMPLAINED OF SAME ISSUE DISPLAYED ON VEHICLE. 9/11/13 THE SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL/STABILTRAK WITH CHECK ENGINE CAME ON AGAIN. I TOOK THE TRUCK BACK TO THE DEALER AND SHOWED THEM VIDEO OF THE PROBLEM HAPPENING. THIS TIME THEY SAID THEY WOULD DIAGNOSED IT AND GET TO THE BOTTOM OF MY COMPLAINT. I CALLED GM THAT DAY COMPLAINING OF THE SAME ISSUE FROM LAST MONTH. GM REOPENED MY CASE AND SAID IT WOULD BE TRANSFERRED TO ANOTHER DEPARTMENT LEVEL. THE DEALER CALLED ME LATER IN THE DAY AND REPLACED THE THROTTLE BODY AND CONNECTORS FREE OF CHARGE AGAIN. EVERY TIME WHILE DRIVING THIS TRUCK I WAS TRAVELING WITH MY CHILDREN AND ALMOST HAD ACCIDENTS WITH THIS. THIS IS UNSAFE AND GM NEEDS TO HAVE A RECALL ON THIS PART AND MODEL OF TRUCK. SOME THING HAS TO BE DONE BEFORE IT BECOMES FATAL!!! HOPEFULLY THIS TIME THE PROBLEM IS CORRECTED. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 53,000.

ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO I TOOK MY CAR INTO THE LOCAL CHEVY DEALERSHIP AND HAD THE SENSOR CHANGED FOR THE PASSENGER AIR BAG. A FEW WEEKS AFTER THEY CHANGED THE SENSOR THE PROBLEM RETURNED. IT WOULD NOT TURN THE AIR BAG ON EVEN WHEN A FULL GROWN ADULT WAS SITTING IN THE SEAT. IT DIDN'T HAPPEN ALL OF THE TIME SO WHEN I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND THE SAID THEY COULDN'T REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. AFTER TAKING IT BACK ABOUT 4 TIMES AND THEM NEVER BEING ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM I QUIT TAKING IT IN. LUCKILY THE FIRST TIME IT WAS FIXED MY VEHICLE WAS STILL UNDER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. (THANK GOD I BOUGHT THAT! I'VE SURE USED IT!) NOW THIS YEAR, THE PASSENGER AIR BAG WON'T TURN ON AT ALL EVEN WITH MY 200LB BOYFRIEND SITTING THERE. THE ONLY THING THAT HAPPENS IS THE SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT COMES ON THE DASHBOARD. I'VE TAKEN IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY'VE DUPLICATED THE PROBLEM AND WANT ME TO PAY $600 TO GET IT FIXED. I DON'T FEEL THAT THE SAME THING SHOULD HAVE TO BE FIXED TWICE IN JUST 2-3YEARS. ESPECIALLY SINCE IT'S NOT A MAINTENANCE PROBLEM. THERE IS OBVIOUSLY SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE SENSOR. *TR

WHILE DRIVING THE CHEVY 2007 EQUINOX, THE BRAKE PEDAL FELT SPONGY, SO I TOOK IT IN TO CHEVY THOROBRED FOR A SAFETY CHECK. I WAS TOLD BY SERVICE THAT IT WAS MY MASTER CYLINDER GOING OUT AND THAT IT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I ASKED IF THIS ITEM WAS COVERED UNDER POWER TRAIN WARRANTY; IT WAS NOT.COULD THIS BE DUE TO POOR MATERIALS/ OR SOMETHING HE COULD NOT SAY. I SAID THAT MY AUTO HAD 58833 MILES IS THAT KINDA EARLY FOR SUCH A PART TO BRAKE DOWN? I WILL LOOK ON THE INTERNET TO SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL NOTICE. *TR

FIRST INCIDENT: STABILITRAC CONTROL ERROR. NO CODES STORED! SEVERAL CALLS & COMMUNICATIONS POINTED TO THE EGR VALVE. REPLACED THAT ~ $79. SEEMED FINE.... WEEKS LATER, STABILITRAC ERROR AND LOSS OF POWER STEERING WHILE DRIVING. NOT GOOD. ALMOST HAD AN ACCIDENT! STILL NO ERROR CODE !!!! COULD NOT TRACK ANYTHING DOWN... PUT VEHICLE IN SHOP. THEY DETERMINE THAT IT WAS THE POWER STEERING POSITION SENSOR. GETTING FIXED @ $650+ PRICE TAG. CAN'T BELIEVE THIS IS NOT A RECALL SAFETY ITEM SINCE IT SEEMS TO BE HAPPENING NO ONLY TO ME. PLEASE RESEARCH PROBLEM AND HELP RECOUP SOME OF THE $$$$. I DON'T MIND PAYING FOR WORK AND REAL IDENTIFIABLE PROBLEMS, BUT THIS IS RIDICULOUS CONSIDERING THE SAFETY INVOLVED. *TR

I STARTED SMELLING GAS IN MY VEHICLE AND IT DID NOT GO AWAY. I COULDN'T SEE ANY PLACE WHERE IT WAS LEAKING SO TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC. HE SAID THE GAS TANK IS LEAKING ON BOTH SIDES AND IT WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED. *TR

ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO I STARTED SMELLING GAS AROUND AND IN MY VEHICLE. AFTER RESEARCHING THE DATA BASE I SEE THAT IS NOT UNCOMMON AND I AM VERY CONCERNED AS TO WHY THIS IS NOT BEING RECALLED. HOW MANY COMPLAINTS NEED TO BE MADE? ARE THEY WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO BE INJURED BECAUSE THEIR VEHICLE CAUGHT ON FIRE DUE TO THIS? THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE FOR SURE. I DID TAKE MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND IT IS THE FUEL PUMP. UNFORTUNATELY I DO NOT LIVE IN THE STATES THAT THE RECALL WAS ISSUED FOR. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL ISSUES WITH THIS VEHICLE AND EVERY ONE OF THEM IS A KNOWN COMMON ISSUE AND NONE HAVE BEEN SENT FOR RECALL. THIS IS GOING TO COST ME MORE THAN I CAN AFFORD TO GET IT FIXED. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL IN ALL STATES NOT JUST A FEW! *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WERE GASOLINE FUEL FUMES IN THE REAR OF THE EXTERIOR AND INTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, WHO STATED THAT THE FUEL TUBE THAT ENTERED THE FUEL TANK EXHIBITED A LEAK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE WAS REPORTED TO THE MANUFACTURER.

WE STARTED SMELLING GAS IN EARLY MAY 2012. WHEN THE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON, WE TOOK IT INTO A MECHANIC, WHO DETERMINED IT WAS THE FUEL MODULE THAT WAS CRACKED AND LEAKING AND WE PAID A SMALL FORTUNE TO GET IT REPLACED. IN OCTOBER OF THAT YEAR, GM ANNOUNCED A RECALL FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM, BUT HAS REPEATEDLY SAID OUR VIN IS NOT ON THE LIST. I CANNOT SEE HOW THIS IS POSSIBLE. WHY IS THE RECALL FOR JUST A FEW STATES? WE LIVE IN OKLAHOMA, BUT THE RECALL IS FOR TEXAS. HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE? WHY IS NO-ONE PUSHING FOR A NATIONWIDE RECALL, AND WHY CAN WE NOT GET REIMBURSED FOR THE COSTS OF OUR REPAIRS? I HOPE YOU CAN HELP. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WATER PENETRATED THE INTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE VIA THE SPARE TIRE COMPARTMENT.

THE CONTACT ALSO MENTIONED THAT MOLD HAD DEVELOPED INSIDE OF THE CABIN AS A RESULT OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED ABOUT THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 29,951.

EXTENSIVE WATER INTRUSION IN THE SPARE TIRE WELL. THIS HAS BEEN OCCURRING MORE OFTEN IN THE LAST YEAR. APPROXIMATELY 4-5 INCHES OF WATER IS FILLING FOLLOWING A RAIN STORM. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE APPROACHING THE VEHICLE, HE SMELLED GASOLINE. THE CONTACT COULD SMELL GASOLINE INSIDE THE VEHICLE AS WELL. THE VEHICLE ALSO FAILED TO START. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A MECHANIC, WHO ADVISED THAT THERE WAS A FUEL LEAK. THE REFERENCED NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 12V459000 (FUEL GASOLINE) BUT DID NOT CONFIRM WITH THE MANUFACTURER IF THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 70,000.

THE GAS TANK/FUEL PUMP BEGAN EMITTING A FUEL ODOR IN THE SUMMER OF 2011. I THOUGHT THAT IT WAS FROM RECENTLY FILLING THE TANK. IT WAS A HOT TEXAS SUMMER WHEN THIS BEGAN TO HAPPEN. THE SMELL WOULD COME AND GO WITHOUT REASON. IT DID HAPPEN MORE OFTEN IN THE SUMMER. THIS PAST WINTER, WHEN HAVING ROUTINE OIL CHANGE AND INSPECTION, IT WAS FOUND THAT THE FUEL PUMP HAD A CRACK IN IT AND THAT IS WHERE THE GAS ODOR WAS ORIGINATING. IT WAS UNDER RECALL, BUT CHEVROLET KEEPS SAYING THAT OUR VIN NUMBER HAD NOT COME UP. THE MECHANIC REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP AT NEARLY $900.00. CHEVROLET KEEPS DENYING OUR CLAIM. IT APPEARS THAT IT HAS DENIED MANY, MANY CLAIMS. WE HAVE RECEIVED THE ORIGINAL RECALL LETTER BUT THEY HAVE NOT RECALLED MY SPECIFIC VEHICLE. I WOULD THINK THAT SOMETHING THAT THEY WERE AWARE OF AS FAR BACK AS 2010 SHOULD BE REPLACED AND REIMBURSED WITHIN LESS THAN 6 MONTHS AFTER YOU PERSONALLY HAVE IT REPAIRED. *TR

ABOUT A MONTH AGO WE STARTED SMELLING GAS BOTH INSIDE AND OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE. AFTER A FEW WEEKS THE VEHICLE WAS STARTING TO HAVE TROUBLE STARTING WHERE IT WOULD SOUND LIKE THE CAR WAS "FLOODED" AND WOULDN'T TURN OVER RIGHT AWAY. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP TODAY AND THEY DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS A CRACKED FUEL MODULE SYSTEM THAT WAS LEAKING FUEL. I HAVE READ THOUSANDS UPON THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS PART ON THIS PARTICULAR EQUINOX AND THERE IS EVEN A RECALL ON THE PART BUT IN ONLY 4 STATES WHICH ISN'T FAIR TO REST OF THE OWNERS THAT ARE SUFFERING THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

ON SATURDAY MAY 25, 2013 MY 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX WOULD NOT START. THE KEY HAD GOTTEN STUCK IN THE IGNITION AND I DID NOT REMOVE IT AND I THINK THAT KILLED THE BATTERY. I TRIED TO JUMP START THE CAR WITH NO SUCCESS. FINALLY ON SUNDAY MAY 26,2013 I HAD A PROFESSIONAL COME JUMP START IT. AFTER IT STARTED THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT AND THE STABILITRAK WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S CAUSING IT. I READ IN THE FORUM THAT THERE WERE SEVERAL OTHER EQUINOX'S WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I THINK IT SHOULD BE A RECALL. *TR

THIS IN REGARDS TO GM RECALL 12190. GM SENT ME A NOTICE THAT A CRACK FUEL PUMP MODULE WAS POSSIBLE FOR MY CAR. I HAD THAT PROBLEM A YEAR EARLIER THAN THE NOTICE AND PAID A GM DEALER ALMOST $1000.00 TO REPAIR. IN THE RECALL NOTICE SENT BY GM, THEY SAID THAT THEY WOULD NOTIFY ME WHEN PARTS BECAME AVAILABLE FOR MY CAR. IT HAS BEEN ALMOST 8 MONTHS SINCE THAT NOTICE, AND I HAVE NOT BEEN NOTIFY, CALLS TO GM CUSTOMER SERVICE HAVE ADVISE ME THAT THEY DO KNOW WHEN THE PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE, NOR ARE THEY CONCERNED OR OBLIGATED TO MAKE THE PART(S) AVAILABLE, THIS THIS COMPLAINT. *TR

THE FUEL PUMP MODULE WAS LEAKING FUEL, AS DISCOVERED BY MY MECHANIC. THE PUMP HAD TO BE CHANGED AT GREAT EXPENSE. WHY HAS THIS PROBLEM NOT BEEN ADDRESSED ACROSS THE BOARD FOR EQUINOX, INSTEAD OF SELECTIVE STATE REGISTERED AS MENTIONED IN THE GM RECALL ? I COULD HAVE HAD A POTENTIAL FIRE HAD I NOT DETECTED FUEL FUMES WHEN I DID. THANK YOU, *TR

ON 05/05/13 MY 7 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER NOTICED THAT THE BACKSEAT FLOORBOARDS WHERE WET. IT'S BEEN RAINING A LOT SO I SHRUGGED IT OFF WITHOUT CHECKING. ON 05/06/13 I NOTICED PUDDLING IN THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE FLOORBOARD. REMEMBERING WHAT MY 7 YEAR OLD HAD SAID I LOOKED BACK TO FIND STANDING WATER IN THE BACK SEAT FLOOR BOARDS!!! I RESEARCHED ONLINE AND CHECKED THE SPARE TIRE WELL AS RECOMMENDED. IT HAD STANDING WATER! I CALLED THE DEALERSHIPS SERVICE CENTER AND THEY ADVISED ME THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY $265 FOR A "WATER LEAK DIAGNOSTIC". THEN I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR WHATEVER THE ISSUE IS BECAUSE I AM NOT UNDER WARRANTY. I HAVE 2 CHILDREN AND AM WORRIED ABOUT MOLD. NOT SURE HOW I AM GOING TO FIX THIS WITHOUT BANKRUPTING. I SUCKED IT ALL OUT WITH A WET VAC AND WILL CONTINUE TO WORK ON THE CARPET EVERY DAY. SOMEONE HELP!! *TR

I NOTICED A GAS SMELL WHEN I GOT OUT OF MY CAR AND WHEN IT IS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT THE CAR AND THEY LOOKED AT IT FOR ME. THEY TOLD ME THE GAS TANK WAS LEAKING A LITTLE BIT FROM THE TOP OF THE TANK. I THEN DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND OUT THAT THERE IS A RECALL ON THE FUEL PUMP FOR THE SAME REASON. I LIVE IN KENTUCKY AND THE RECALL IS IN THE WESTERN STATES. WHY IS IT ONLY IN THOSE STATES IT IS A DEFECT IN THE PART ITSELF AND I FEEL AS IF IT SHOULD BE REPLACED JUST THE SAME AS THE OTHERS. ALSO I AM HAVING A PROBLEM WITH THE STABILITRACK IN MY VEHICLE. A WARNING WILL APPEAR ON THE DASH THAT STATES SERVICE STABILITRACK, STABILITRACK OFF, AND THEN IT WILL STATE ENGINE POWER REDUCED AND THE ENGINE WILL REDUCE POWER. I HAVE SEEN A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT THAT AS WELL. *TR

I STARTED SMELLING GAS WHILE DRIVING AND EVEN WHEN IT WAS PARKED. WHEN I TRIED TO ACCELERATE OR DRIVE UPHILL IT WOULD SPUTTER AND CHOKE LIKE IT WASN'T GETTING ENOUGH GAS.

I BEGAN SMELLING FUMES COMING FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. IT GO SO BAD, I HAD TO STOP PARKING MY CAR IN MY GARAGE. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE LOCAL CHEVY DEALER, DALE EARNHARDT CHEVROLET ON TENNESSEE STREET IN TALLAHASSEE, FLORIDA, AND THEY CONFIRMED THAT THE FUEL PUMP WAS ON THE RECALL. HOWEVER, I WAS TOLD THAT THE 2007 CHEVY EQUINOX IS LISTED UNDER PHASE 2 OF THE RECALL AND THEY ARE ONLY DEALING WITH THE PHASE 1 VEHICLES. IN ADDITION, GM HAS NOT COME UP WITH THE NEW FUEL PUMPS TO REPLACE THE BAD ONES. THUS, IF I WANT IT FIXED, I WOULD HAVE TO GO TO THE NAPA STORE AND PURCHASE A FUEL PUMP (I BELIEVE THIS WOULD BE A NON-GM PART) AND THEN HAVE THEN INSTALL IT AT A COST OF OVER $1,100.00 TO ME. I THEN CONTACTED THE HOME OFFICE FOR GM AND THE "DISTRICT SPECIALIST", ROD, TOLD ME THAT THE ENGINEERS HAVE DETERMINED THAT DESPITE THE NATIONWIDE RECALL, THAT THE FUEL PUMP WILL NOT BE REPAIRED OR REPLACED. I ADVISE HIM OF ALL THE ON LINE DOCUMENTATION REGARDING THE RECALL AND HE TOLD ME THEY DON'T READ THOSE OR ACKNOWLEDGE THOSE SO I AM OUT OF LUCK. I ASKED FOR THE PHONE NUMBER TO THE HOME OFFICE AND HE SAID NO ONE KNOWS IT AND THAT I COULD JUST CONTACT THEM VIA THEIR P.O. BOX. *TR

DURING THE WINTER I BEGAN TO HEAR WATER MOVING AROUND SOMEWHERE IN MY VEHICLE AS I DROVE AROUND BUT HAD NO IDEA WHERE THIS SOUND WAS COMING FROM. I WAS VACUUMING MY VEHICLE ONE DAY AND THE CARPET WAS COMPLETELY SOAKED. I BEGAN TO RESEARCH ONLINE AND FOUND THAT MANY EQUINOX OWNERS HAD LEAK PROBLEMS AND THEY HAD FOUND WATER HAD ACCUMULATED IN THE SPARE TIRE WELL. I CHECKED THE SPARE TIRE WELL AND SURE ENOUGH APPROXIMATELY 9 INCHES OF WATER HAD ACCUMULATED IN THERE. I CLEARED OUT THAT WATER BUT WATER IS STILL SOMEWHERE IN THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE BECAUSE I CAN HEAR IT AS I DRIVE, WATER ALSO LEAKS THROUGH THE OVERHEAD LIGHTING. I CONTACTED GM AND THEY ADVISED I BRING THE VEHICLE TO ONE OF THEIR REPAIR SHOPS FOR ASSESSMENT, THE SHOP STATED THE PROBLEM IS THE SUNROOF MODULE AT A COST $2600. AFTER THIS ASSESSMENT GM NOTIFIED ME THAT THEY ARE UNABLE TO OFFER REPAIR ASSISTANCE BECAUSE THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY, SOMETHING THEY KNEW PRIOR TO REQUESTING I BRING THE VEHICLE TO THE SHOP AND HAVING ME SPEND APPROXIMATELY $200. THIS IS CLEARLY A MANUFACTURING ISSUE WHICH MANY EQUINOX CUSTOMERS HAVE AND GM IS NOT ACCEPTING RESPONSIBILITY FOR. I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT THEY ARE ABLE TO GET AWAY WITH THIS. I AM NOW STUCK WITH A VEHICLE THAT HOLDS WATER IN THE BODY, A CARPET WHICH HAS GOTTEN WET AND WILL MORE THAN LIKELY CONTINUE TO GET WET SO IT HAS A CONSTANT ODOR AND A VEHICLE WHICH LEAKS THROUGH THE OVERHEAD LIGHTING, SEEMS VERY UNSAFE. THE WATER TRAPPED IN THE BODY OF THE VEHICLE WILL MORE THAN LIKELY CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO RUST AND PERHAPS EVEN CAUSE MORE SERIOUS PROBLEMS. THIS IS NOT FAIR TO THE CONSUMER, GM SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THE DEFECT IN THIS AND OTHER EQUINOX VEHICLES, TO ISSUE A RECALL FOR THE REPAIR OF THIS DEFECT IS THE LEAST GM CAN DO FOR THEIR CUSTOMERS. *TR

ON THIS DAY APRIL 8, 13 WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY ALL OF A SUDDEN THE SUNROOF OF MY 2007 EQUINOX LS FLEW OFF. *TR

WE WERE TRAVELING 3-28-2013 AND WERE ABOUT A HUNDRED MILES FROM OUR DESTINATION WHEN THE SERVICE STABILITRAC, SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. LESS THAN A YEAR PRIOR TO THIS ON 4-19-2012 WE HAD A SIMILAR INCIDENT, WHICH HAPPENED TO BE THE POWER STEERING CONTROL MODULE. WE MADE IT HOME 4-2-2013 AND TOOK IT TO THE SHOP AND FOUND OUT THE EGR VALVE NEED REPLACING. I REPLACE THE EGR VALVE AND CLEARED THE CODES. ALL WAS WELL TILL 4-7-2013 WHEN THE SERVICE STABILITRAC AND SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS CAME ON AGAIN. I HAVE NOT HAD A CHANCE TO LOOK INTO THIS. *TR

AFTER SMELLING A VERY STRONG ODOR OF GAS FOR ABOUT A MONTH, IT BECAME SO STRONG THAT I TOOK THE CAR INTO THE DEALER. THE SERVICE MGR. INFORMED ME THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL PUMP AND THAT IT WOULD REQUIRE DROPPING THE GAS TANK TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. SINCE THERE WAS A STRONG CHANCE OF FIRE, I DECIDED TO HAVE THE WORK DONE. IT WAS EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE, $1200, WHICH I HAD TO BORROW IN ORDER TO AFFORD THIS REPAIR. THE SERVICE MGR. EVEN SHOWED ME THE CRACKED PIECE OF PLASTIC FROM INSIDE THE FUEL PUMP. UPON RETURNING HOME THAT EVENING, I WAS SURPRISED TO SEE A NEWS STORY ON TV ABOUT A RECALL MADE BY CHEVROLET FOR THE VERY PROBLEM I HAD JUST HAD. AND THEN THE UNBELIEVABLE NEWS THAT THEY WOULD RECALL ONLY CERTAIN "WARM WEATHER" STATES. I LIVE IN VIRGINIA, WHICH WAS NOT INCLUDED, BUT IT GETS HOT HERE TOO. I AM APPALLED THAT THE RECALL WASN'T SENT TO EVERY OWNER THAT MIGHT BE AFFECTED BY THIS OBVIOUS DEFECT. AND AFTER READING MANY FORUMS ON THE INTERNET, I REALIZE THE PROBLEM IS WIDESPREAD, NOT JUST THE FEW "WARM WEATHER" STATES. I HAVE BEEN A FAN OF CHEVROLET FOR MANY YEARS, BUT MY FAITH IN THEIR COMPANY HAS BEEN SHATTERED. I HAVE REPEATEDLY CALLED THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE PHONE LINE AND WAS GIVEN AN INCIDENT NUMBER TO REFLECT THAT I HAD CONTACTED THEM. I EVEN WENT TO MY DEALER AND SINCE THEY HAD NOT RECEIVED ANYTHING OTHER THAN A MEMO, THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. NOW IT IS APRIL AND STILL NO SIGN OF EVER BEING CONTACTED BY CHEVROLET ABOUT THIS RECALL. I REALLY NEED THAT MONEY BACK AND AM VERY ANGRY WITH THE WHOLE SITUATION!!!!! *TR

THE POWER STEERING COMPUTER MODULAR FAILED ON 3/26/13. THERE WAS NO WARNING OR RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM. THIS WAS UNEXPECTED AND CAUSED ME A GREAT DEAL OF STRESSED. I HAD TO SPEND A LOT OF MONEY TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THIS VEHICLE ALERTS ME ON EVERYTHING ELSE, SUCH AS LOW GAS, CHANGE OIL, ETC...YET IT DO NOT ALERT ME OF A MAJOR PROBLEM? *TR

2007 CHEVY EQUINOX. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO BRAKES MALFUNCTION. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE STARTED BRAKING ON ITS OWN AND THEN CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP. THE TRACTION CONTROL AND STABILTRAK LIGHTS BLINKED ON AND OFF. THE CONSUMER STATED IT HAPPENED SEVERAL MORE TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A REPAIR SHOP. THEY WERE UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM, SO THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER. AN INSPECTION REVEALED CONTAMINATED BRAKE FLUID. THE DEALER INFORMED THE CONSUMER IT WOULD COST $4,000 TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE FIRST REPAIR SHOP, WHERE THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER, BRAKE BOOSTERS AND BRAKE HOSES WERE REPLACED AT A COST OF $ 1215.31. THE VEHICLE PERFORMED WELL, FOR THREE WEEKS, UNTIL A HEAVY RAIN CAUSED THE TRACTION CONTROL AND STABILTRAK LIGHT TO FLICKER AND THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO BRAKE AGAIN WITHOUT DRIVER ACTIVATION.

FUEL PUMP LEAK - AGAIN - STILL NO FLORIDA RECALL - EVEN THOUGH OTHER STATES HAVE RECALLED FOR SAME LEAK! *TR

IGNITION KEY WILL NOT COME OUT ONCE THE CAR IS TURNED OFF AND PUT INTO PARK. I HAVE READ NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS CONCERNING THIS PROBLEM AND NO-ONE CAN TELL IF THIS HAPPENS BECAUSE OF THE KEY CYLINDER OR BECAUSE OF GEAR SHIFT NOT PROPERLY GOING INTO PARK. *TR

2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO DEFECTIVE FUEL PUMP MODULE RECALL NOTICE. *SMD WHEN THE CONSUMER CONTACTED THE DEALER, HE WAS INFORMED, THE REPLACEMENT PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT SHE COULD SMELL FUEL INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE SMELL WAS SO STRONG THAT SHE COULD NOT PARK THE VEHICLE IN HER GARAGE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE FUEL PUMP MODULE WAS CRACKED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED OF A RECALL UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 12V459000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE). THE DEALER INFORMED HER THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 118,303.

THE PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD WENT FROM AN "ON" TO "OFF" STATUS WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN DRIVE WITH AN ADULT PASSENGER ABOARD AND THE SEATBELT FASTENED. WE HAD THE VEHICLE AT THE DEALER, BOB FISHER CHEVROLET, READING, PA, FOR AN INSPECTION AND OIL CHANGE - AND ALSO REPORTED THIS INSTANCE. MY WIFE WAS CALLED AND TOLD THERE WAS NO RECALL EFFECTING OUR VIN. ALSO THAT IT WOULD NOT REACT AS DESCRIBED "AT THAT TIME". REFERENCE GM NOTICE #07174 DATED AUG 22, 2007. THE DEALER STATED THAT AS OUR VIN WAS NOT IN THE "RANGE RECALLED" THAT THEY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO PROPERLY FIX THE PROBLEM AS GM WOULD NOT REIMBURSE THEM. SO, WHAT DOES CONSTITUTE GM'S AND THE DEALERS RESPONSIBILITIES WHEN THERE IS SOME SORT OF OBVIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM? *TR
