GM- Has Issued Recall on 2010-2013 Equniox's Or extended the warranty on the powertrain for those years. Unfortunately, from 2014-to 2017 same engine wasn't included in this extended 150,000 warranty. Know issues of rear main seal blowing out causing all of the oil to leak for the engine while driving not one warning light came on! This blew up the engine with my wife and daughter in the car! They could have DIED!!!!!! What's wrong with GM knowing that this can happen! Mine has 73,000 miles on it and they will not repair it! They have to do better before someone gets killed!

The contact owns a 2015 Chevrolet Equinox. The contact stated while driving 50 MPH while it was snowing, the windshield wipers stopped working as needed and the contact was unable to see the roadway.

I was driving to work and when I stopped at a stop light my vehicle stalled. It started up again and whenI went to park it at work, it stalled again. It started again and did not experience any more stalling after that incidence. No check engine light ever came on, however I decided to have it checked over anyway as I did not think it should be stalling. That is when I had the repairs done.

The contact owns a 2015 Chevrolet Equinox. The contact stated while driving 55 MPH, the windshield wipers and transmission became inoperable. There were no warning lights illuminated.

The service airbag sensor is constantly going off. It scares me, I am afraid it will explode

While driving on I-96 in Michigan, the vehicle began to shake, and act like it was going to stall out. The check engine light came on, the no power to engine and check oil level messages appeared, disappeared, and reappeared again. After getting off at the nearest exit ramp, the vehicle did eventually stall out and would not start again. I checked the oil, the dipstick indicated that there was no oil, the dipstick was dry. I was confused because I had just had oil changed approximately 3-4 weeks prior to this incident. I had the vehicle towed to a mechanic where it was inspected and concluded that the engine was damaged and the vehicle would need a new engine. The mechanic indicated to me that there was a known issue with the Equinox 2.4L, 4 cylinder engines, where the engine burns excessive oil internally, leading to engine failure. He had just had another equinox in his shop with the same issue. The mechanic contacted Jasper motors, a company that rebuilds engines, they could get me a new engine, but not until mid-march because there were 40 of this engine on backorder. I conducted an internet search to see how widespread the issue is. Websites such as carbrain.com, chevroletproblems.com, motorreviewer.com, vehiclehistory.com, and wvdot.com, all say the same thing; the 2.4L engine "burns excessive oil". I guess on one hand, you could say buyer beware, you have to know what you are purchasing, but on the other hand, the Chevrolet dealer that I purchased this vehicle from did no disclose to me that there was a know issue with these engines and I should continually check the oil levels. Had that been disclosed, I would have likely purchased a different vehicle, or, at least had the necessary knowledge to prevent this from occurring. If there is a know issue with this engine burning excessive oil, why hasn't it been recalled and fixed?

I have a 2015 Chevy Equinox LT, I had my car repair engine light came on all lights on dash lite service warning for ABS, Traction control, StabiliTrak and steering wheel, and when I would stop the car would stall. I took to Chevy dealership and had serviced. The intake valve was replaced covered under warranty, and the ECM (engine control module) replaced. Car seemed fine after 1 1/2 years service StabiliTrak came on and off , I had issues with low fuel mileage, only check engine light came on once and then right off again after I had the spark plugs replaced the outtake valve replaced no check engine light , regular oil changes. One day the Service StabiliTrak light came on and did not come off. This has been going on for 6 months I was driving and my car started jumping when I came to a stop, no lights came on. I continued to drive and when I parked my car sounded like a mac truck and was shaking and had the smell of burning oil or gas. I parked a 2 hours later I started it the same sound and smell along with the check engine light I looked under my car and there was oil dripping, I stopped and add oil and was able to drive home slowly. I parked over night I started it and drove around the block I turned off and then waited a minute turned back on opened the hood and the engine was shaking loud and reduced engine power message came up. I am at a loss I do not have money to fix this it is a 2015 no warranties are even covered over this issue if they are able to figure out what this is. I looked all over the internet and so many people have this problem I don't understand why it is not recalled or there is no class action against GM for this

Engine started burning excess oil and then Engine failed. This occurred quite quickly and did not notice any low oil indicator. Needed to replace Engine

The contact owns a 2015 Chevrolet Equinox. The contact stated while driving approximately 5 MPH, a message to turn off the vehicle was displayed. The vehicle was restarted and moved to a different parking lot where the contact noticed that oil was leaking from the vehicle. The vehicle was towed to a local mechanic where it was diagnosed with needing the engine replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 125,000.

On December 29, 2021 my 2015 Chevy Equinox did not start (couple days prior vehicle would jerk when coming to a stop - no dash lights came on). Had my Equinox towed to the dealship where I bought the vehicle and where I had every oil change completed. The service department stated I needed a new engine (not given a reason on exact issue), it is currently sitting at the dealership as I dont have 8K to replace engine!

In July/August 2021, the driver side windshield wiper got stuck mid-swipe. The only way to get it to go down was to physically move it. I was driving on the interstate in the middle of a downpour. Had to pull over several times on the way home because periodically it would move back up and get stuck. When it wasn't stuck I had to lean to the right to see out of the right side of the windshield to get home. For about 20 miles. My husband figured out the issue and purchased the malfunctioning part and repaired it. In December 2021, my engine seized at a stoplight. I coaxed the car out of the way and got it on the side of the road. The only warning to this was an occasional "ticking" noise, that never seemed to happen when my husband listened to it. We assumed it was the timing chain, but after having it towed to the dealer we were told it was an "oil consumption" issue. The "oil life" alert had been on for about a month, and I had planned on getting an oil change the weekend this happened. However, little did I know that the vehicle had ZERO oil in it. The low oil pressure light never came on. As a matter of fact no warning lights ever came on. The vehicle is now sitting at the dealership, unmoving because the fix is $8300.

2015 Chevy Equinox with Excessive oil Consumption. Known complaints for this model. My engine seized up . No warning . Oil had been changed

Issue with oil consumption on this vehicle. Needs 2 quarts of new oil every 2-3 weeks with moderate driving. Mechanics say this is a known issue with Chevrolet Equinox’s since 2011. The only true fix is to replace the engine and even then the problem can reoccur with new engines. I have joined a Facebook page called “Terrain-Equinox Oil Consumption Recall” with thousands of members experiencing same issue. There is no assistance from dealerships to assist in covering repair costs. There was a limited recall for model year 2013 but same issues are present in 2014’s and 2015’s as well. There are also many complaints about on this issue on this bursa website. Looking for any assistance.

The timing chain broke at 107,988 miles on this vehicle, I bought it with 72000 miles on it in April 2020. luckily I was in a parking lot and the vehicle not moving. It's over a $5,000 repair estimate. I have it at a local repair shop. yes it is available for inspection.

Driving my SUV it shut off and would not start. When I was at a red light my car would totally shut off. I finally got it started when I returned home at shut off again I had to call a tow company to take it to Winter Haven Chevrolet Center. They stated it was intake cam solenoid replaces valve 0.736 also the mechanic stated they had to perform induction system cleaning service.It's very dangerous driving my vehicle then the vehicle just shuts off and die almost caused an accident. I need to know if there is a recall I had to spend $828.51. I would appreciate if somebody would get back with me on this.

Excessive oil consumption has caused my engine to completely deplete all oil which can lead to my engine freezing while driving

Timing chain issues

I was travelling at approximately 65/70 mph on the freeway when it began to rain very heavily and I turned on my windshield wipers. The windshield wipers came on for a few seconds and then stopped moving. The wiper blades would not come back on after multiple attempts. I could not see out my front window. I was able to put on my hazards and pull quickly off onto the berm with my passenger guiding me. I called the Chevrolet Dealer and they said they could replace the Windshield Wiper Transmission under a "Special Policy" at no cost to me. Dealer explained Chevrolet knows there is a problem with the wiper transmission and the special policy extends warranty to replace for no charge to me. Dealer said at this time Chevrolet is not recalling, just waiting until a car owners wipers fail and then they will replace. I had it replaced. The Dealer has replaced other Equinox wiper transmissions in my rural county, pop. 62,000. Chevrolet issued a recall for Windshield Wiper Transmission failure for the 2013 Chevrolet Equinox. Chevrolet and NHSTA are aware there is a problem with the Equinox for more than just the 2013 models, including the 2015 which I own. To date no recall or advisory has been issued to me or other Equinox owners. I was fortunate to have a berm to pull over on, fortunate not to crash my car and injure myself, my child or any other vehicles. Had I been further on my journey on the state route or county road to my home, with zero visibility, I would have had nowhere to pull over safely.

May 29, 2021 last oil changed at Chevrolet Service Center Aug 14, 2021 engine stopped working due to empty oil, as a result of oil leakage. However, the oil light didn’t show up. Note: Oil change is not yet due.

Windshield wipers have been repaired 3x in 5 months because in heavy rain when wiper was increased from low to next level they go to left and stop. It’s been a bushing replacement. The last incident occurred on 8/13/2021 during heavy rainstorm in Cincinnati, OH. I am a 63 yr old female, driving by myself at night. The wipers quit working. Found spot to pull over, set for over an hour waiting for rain to ease up, which it didn’t. Luckily for me I was about 2 miles from my home. I finally braved it in the rain which had let up to a steady pace, put on my flashers and made it home on a back road. What a hazard, when I think I could have been on an interstate instead of 45 mph back road, my blood pressure goes sky high. My VIN says no recalls, but numerous articles mention 2015 Equinox wiper issue. What recourse do I have?

Service power steering message comes on when starting vehicle.

While on the highway in the rain, the wipers were engaged to the highest setting and suddenly went was the windshield and stopped working. The wipers are in perfect condition, the wiper motor no longer engages or turns on. Super lucky to not have crashed as I had ZERO visibility from the rain.

I was driving back from Albany to Troy NY on 787 in a steady light rain when the rain roared to full torrential downpour. I put my wipers from the regular steady setting up to high, and they instantly both went all the way to the left and turned off in the upright position. They would not respond again. Middle lane, 65 mph, thunderstorm, and I can’t see anything out my windshield and cars are flying beside me on both sides. I rolled my window down but couldn’t see around my hood to the road and steer at the same time. I couldn’t get to the right lane to pull over because of the traffic and even if I could it was dangerous to be on a narrow shoulder at that point in this rainstorm. I put my flashers on, slowed to 40 and stayed in the middle lane as best I could based on the white lane markers as I still had zero visibility out my windshield. One I was past the last of the on ramps for that section I could pull over to the right lane at least and I got off at the next exit. Once I was on a city street to pull over, there was still so much traffic I had to wait until I could get out and put my wipers at least in the down position. They did not feel broken or slack at all. I waited a while for the rain to let up, but it would soon be dark, so I decided to slowly drive the rest of the way. it took me a half hour to drive the length of Troy on side streets slow enough so I had some measure of visibility in the still downpour. I cannot believe the wipers stopped working at the high speed setting on a highway in the middle of a storm. I could have crashed my car easily. What if my children had been with me? A failure like this is unacceptable and incredibly dangerous. It is a holiday weekend. I will call the dealership tomorrow in hopes they are open to speak to them about this.

Driving today during a thunderstorm and the windshield wipers just quit working. The wiper blades stopped half way and that was it we made it to the side of the road and I could move the wipers back and forth really easy and could here a clunking down in by the motor needles to say my 2015 equinox with only 90,023 miles on it can’t go down the road with no windshield wipers this could’ve really been bad had not known my surroundings because I immediately couldn’t see the road !!! My 2000 silverado still has all its factory wiper arms and motor yet why is this pile falling apart ?? GM better go back to the drawing board on this major malfunction

On 25 June 2021, about 12:30 pm, driving from home to Bank then Shopping Center in Slidell, La. East bound on I-12 then at I-12/I-59/I-10 junction merged right on I-59s to I-I0w lane merge. In right lane approaching exit 263 (Gause Blvd) when a sudden thunderstorm happened. Switched Wipers on to High. About 1/2 mile from exit lane without any warning the wipers suddenly quit. I eased onto shoulder/turned on Hazard Lights, and continued at a slow speed to exit the Interstate and exit as it was a very heavy rain and I was afraid of being plowed into from someone from behind driving too fast for conditions. Also there is a Truck Stop on this exit and it was a very un-safe to be in on the shoulder. I exited to the right and pulled into the Truck Stop Parking Lot. After about 30 or so minutes the rain stopped so I drove home. My Equinox is well maintained and has about 98,000 miles on it. As an 82 yo driver both myself and my wife(passenger) were in a very dangerous situation as were the others traversing the highway at this time. As it is a Friday afternoon, I will have a mechanic check it on Monday. I think it linkage problem same as been reported in the 2010 to 2016 models, but only the 2013 models were recalled.

The windshield wiper assembly broke off and windshield wipers no longer function. I have not had it repaired yet, so it is available for inspection. My son was driving on the freeway when it started pouring rain. He had to pull over to the side of the Freeway because the windshield wipers didn’t work. I have not brought the vehicle to be inspected yet. No official inspection of any kind has occurred as of yet. There were no warnings.

I was driving with grand babies in my car and a severe rainstorm hit. I turned on the wipers and they went back and forth 2 times then I heard a clunk and they stuck to left side. I could not see at all and almost had an accident! I did some research and see that you have been aware of this issue since at least 2015. NHTSA has been investigating since then as well. There have been over a thousand reports so far. Please advise as to where I should bring my car to get it fixed by GM.

While driving home in a pretty good rainstorm, put windshield wipers on high and they completely stopped working. Couldn't see anything on a busy interstate while driving 75 miles per hour. I feel that this could have endangered my safety and the other vehicles driving on the highway as I had to pull from the middle lane of 3 lane I-75 to find the shoulder, which I could barely see. No warning. Vehicle has 89,000 miles on it. Took to dealer and vehicle was still under my personal extended warranty, but would have been a $400 repair. Couldn't drive the vehicle for a week until it was fixed because I didn't want to put my safety in jeopardy in case it rained.

My wife and son were driving through town in a pouring rain and had the windshield wipers running on high. All of the sudden the wipers stopped and never started working no matter what was selected on the switch. My wife had to blindly pull to the side of the road and wait for the rainstorm to stop. When she got home I went online and researched the problem and it sounded very common that the Chevy Equinox has defective wiper transmissions that have plastic bushings that pop loose. Sure enough when I removed the wiper cowl cover this was the problem. The motor ran fine but the wiper transmission plastic bushing that connects to the motor linkage was worn out and popped off. 2015 Chevy Equinox with 82K miles. The local parts store had a replacement from Dorman that I purchased to replace the wiper transmission with and he said they sold a lot of these as this was a common problem with the Equinox. This caused a very unsafe driving condition during a rainstorm, especially if my wire had been on a bridge or an area where she could not have quickly pulled to the side of the road.

Was driving in the rain when my windshield wipers stopped working causing me to lose visibility. I struggled to pull over to safety since I was unable to see during the downpour.

Without warning, windshield wipers suddenly stopped working during a significant rain storm that resulted in loosing all visual of interstate. Traffic had slowed to 45 MPH due to rain prior to the complete failure of windshield wiper transmission. As we were lowering driver and passenger windows to get a bearing of where we were in the interstate, we were sideswiped by a semi that caused significant damage to the entire drivers side of the car and a flat tire. This was a serious safety issue that was very close to causing a fatality and/or multi-car collision.

The brakes stop working and then the card turns off

Vehicle stalled out at a stoplight, no warning lights or errors. Brought to dealership for service, where they found the cam shaft actuator solenoid control valve wasn’t working, and had to be replaced. Looking online, saw others having the same issue with this particular car (and a history of recall for the same issue on an older model) and so decided to submit a report. Obviously having a car stall in the middle of traffic is a safety risk. I am a relatively new driver, and fortunately had a friend in the car, otherwise I probably wouldn’t have known what to do, and my stalling might have presented a real hazard to others on the road.

While driving car starts to sputter and stalls, just shuts off, both on city streets and highway. While going 70 mph it just stopped. We were lucky no one was driving right behind us or we would have been plowed over. Called Chevy corporate on at least 2 different occasions. They document and that’s as far as it goes. This is a random occurrence. It gets better and is fine for a while and then all of the sudden the issue starts again. We have changed gas, changed gas cap, & have had 2 timing solenoids replaced (all on different occasions) All of this seems to work for a bit and then the issue starts back. There is no warning when this happens. We have had the vehicle at an independent service center last year and it is now currently at another service center. It is just a matter of time before it stalls on the highway and someone gets killed. I’ve added the 1st initial time this happened (below). But there have been many more with the most recent being yesterday, May 25, 2021.

While driving 65 mph in a 70 mpg speed limit interstate highway zone in a rain storm: the wipers were working and then a noise happened and then the wipers stopped, stuck, in "up" on windshield. Had to slow down with other vehicles behind me and to the side of me to move over 2 lanes to get to the shoulder of road to pull over and stop.

Wipers stopped working.

My 2015 Equinox has about 90k miles. Today the lift gate (automatic) started to not stay open. It would open fully and slowly fall. After a few minutes, it would close. About 1 hour later, the tail gate will open, start to close, try to open and then closed quickly. I was under the door and could not hold the door open. If I hadn't moved, I would have lost an arm.

While driving, the check engine light came on. After getting the code we called our local mechanic and he told us the first thing we should do was check the oil level, as this is a common problem with 2015 Equinoxes. We had to add 2 quarts just to get the oil to even reach the dipstick. At no time did we ever receive an indicator about the oil being low, we just got the check engine light. Our mechanic said if we were lucky that an oil change might fix the issue. After leaving the shop, the Equinox kept stalling and the engine light came back on. We took it back in and he replaced both solenoids, which we thought had fixed the problem, but he informed us about this being a well-known issue. We then had to take the Equinox to a GM dealership anyway to fix the windshield wiper transmission issue (which is a known issue that I only discovered after my wipers broke while I was driving on a busy highway in the rain) and we asked them to do a fuel consumption test. The diagnosis came back that the pistons and rings need to be replaced, which appears to be the same issue that the 2011-2013 Equinoxes/Terrains have. There are special coverages for the previous model years and there was also a class-action lawsuit, so I don't understand why I'm repeatedly being told by GM that it's not a common issue with 2015s. As someone who works for a supplier to GM and who has friends and family members who work for GM, I'm not ignorant to how the automotive industry works. It's no secret that these engines get used across multiple model years, so it seems likely that this is the same 2.4L engine. Yet GM has repeatedly told me that even though I believe that this is a common issue, it actually is not.

THIS OCCURRED TWICE NOW. FIRST ON MARCH 24TH 2021, AND SECOND ON MAY 5TH, 2021. I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY IN THE RAIN BOTH TIMES, AND THE WIPERS STOPPED AT THE TOP OF THE WINDSHIELD WHEN I PUT THEM ON THEIR HIGHEST SPEED. I WAS TRAVELLING AT 65MPH BOTH TIMES, LUCKILY AWAY FROM CARS, SO I WAS NOT INVOLVED IN ANY ACCIDENTS. THE WIPER TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED ON MARCH 27TH, AND I AM IN THE PROCESS OF TAKING IT BACK TO THE SHOP TODAY. UPON INVESTIGATION, THE WIPER MOTOR APPEARED TO RUN WHEN THE STICK WAS LIFTED TO ACTIVATE THE WIPERS, SO IT WAS NOT A MOTOR ISSUE.

CONSTANT BURNING OF OIL, UP TO 1 QUART IN LESS THAN 1,000 MILES. HAD OIL CONSUMPTION TEST DONE DUE TO ALL THE NEGATIVE REVIEWS ON OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUES WITH THIS MOTOR, AND LIFETIME POWERTRAIN WARRANTY REFUSES TO COVER ANY REPAIRS THAT COULD BE ASSOCIATED WITH OIL CONSUMPTION.

MY 2015 CHEVY EQUINOX WAS SCHEDULED FOR ITS REGULAR OIL CHANGE ON TUESDAY, APRIL 27TH AT 8 AM. THE WEEK PRIOR I STARTED HEARING A "KNOCKING" NOISE AND TWO WEEKS PRIOR SMELLED AN ODOR THROUGHOUT THE CABIN. THREE DAYS BEFORE MY APPOINTMENT I DROVE CAR 5 MINUTES ONSITE AND WORK AND PARKED IT. I CAME OUT 40 MINUTES LATER AND IT WOULD NOT START (HOWEVER, IT DID TURN OVER). ATTEMPTED TO JUMPSTART VEHICLE TO NO AVAIL. CONTACTED TOW COMPANY ON MONDAY AFTER CHECKING AGAIN AND HAD IT TOWED TO LOCAL SHOP THAT WAS SCHEDULED TO DO SERVICE. RECEIVED A CALL AT 10:47 AM STATING THAT VEHICLE NEEDED NEW ENGINE, SOMETHING BROKE INSIDE. I AM AT A LOSS FOR WORDS. 120 K MILES AND ENGINE DOWN??!! NO WARNING SIGNAL, NO LOW ENGINE LIGHT, NOTHING!! GMC NEEDS TO STAND BEHIND THEIR VEHICLES AND INCLUDE ALL EQUINOX IN THE RECALL, FOR OBVIOUSLY THIS IS A NATIONWIDE PROBLEM.

HIGH OIL CONSUMPTION 1 1/2 QUARTS EVERY MONTH

THE WIPERS STOP WORKING DURING USE AND WIPER TRANSMISSION OR BUSHINGS HAVE TO BE REPLACED FREQUENTLY. IT HAD HAPPENED IN 05/2020 12/20 AND NOW 3/21. WIPERS STOP WORKING WHILE DRIVING, EXTREMELY DANGEROUS.

WHILE DRIVING IN A STORM THE WIPERS STOPPED WORKING. THIS WAS A VERY SCARY THING AS I HAD A CHILD IN THE CAR. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF THE ROAD AND WAIT THE STORM OUT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING, THERE WAS AN ABNORMALLY STRONG EXHAUST ODOR INSIDE THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WERE SEVERAL CRACKS TO THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD. THE CONTACT CALLED THE LOCAL DEALER EDD ROGERS CHEVROLET BUICK, LLC., (674 W BOCKMAN WAY, SPARTA, TN 38583) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE REPAIR WOULD BE AN OUT OF POCKET EXPENSE SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS NOT UNDER RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 94,200.

MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON SO I TOOK IT IN TO GET ASSESSED. WITH LESS THAN 90,000 MILES, THIS VEHICLE REQUIRES A NEW ENGINE. IT CONSUMES A LOT OF OIL AND HAS BEEN SINCE I BOUGHT IT ONE YEAR AGO, ME HAVING TO ADD OIL EVERY 2 WEEKS. ALSO, THE TIMING CHAIN NEEDS REPLACEMENT-WHICH IS STILL ONLY A TEMPORARY FIX. EVERY MECHANIC I HAVE SPOKEN TO SAYS THIS YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL HAS BEEN HAVING TO REPLACE THE ENGINE. AND THERE IS NO RECALL.

WHILE DRIVING IN THE RAIN MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS QUIT WORKING ON ME. THE FUSE IS FINE AND SO IS THE MOTOR. I HEAR THEM TRY TO MOVE BUT WILL NOT

MY VEHICLE STALLED RECENTLY WHEN I WAS DRIVING SLOWLY COMING TO A STOP.. PRIOR TO THE STALL WHEN I TURNED MY CAR ON IT MADE A TICK SOUND BUT DROVE OK UNTIL IT STALLED. I WAS ABLE TO GET IT STARTED AND DROVE HOME. WHEN I CHECKED THE OIL THERE IT WAS EMPTY. I WAS WELL UNDER THEM TIME BEFORE I NEEDED MY NEXT OIL CHANGE. I HAD IT DIAGNOSED AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS A PISTON AND RING ISSUE THAT WAS THE SAME THING DESCRIBED IN THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT INVOLVING 2010-2013 EQUINOX. BECAUSE MINE IS A 2015 I RECEIVED SOME COST ASSISTANCE BUT PAID $1200 OUT OF POCKET FOR THE FIX. SEEMS LIKE GM KNOWS ABOUT THIS ISSUE BUT HAS NOT LET CONSUMERS KNOW ABOUT THIS SAFETY CONCERN. I WAS UPSET BECAUSE I DRIVE WITH MY CHILDREN WHO ARE 3 AND 1. GM NEEDS TO TELL THEIR CONSUMERS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH IN THE RAIN, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS FAILED TO OPERATE AS DESIGNED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE THE WINDSHIELD WIPER TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY WAS REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 97,000.

THE VEHICLE HAS A EXHAUST SMELL IN CABIN. THE FUMES ARE CONCERNING BECAUSE IT'S COULD CAUSE CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING. THIS IS NOT SAFE AND GM SHOULD DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. I REVIEW NUMEROUS FORMS AND THIS SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM FOR A LOT OF PEOPLE. THIS COULD CAUSE SERIOUS HEALTH ISSUES.

OUR 2015 CHEVY EQUINOX HAS JUST OVER 78,000 MILES ON IT. MY WIFE WAS DRIVING IT AND SAID IT WAS RUNNING ROUGH AND MAKING A NOISE. SHE GOT IT HOME AND WE HAD IT TOWED TO A SHOP. WE WERE TOLD THAT DUE TO A FAULTY PVC PIPE IN OR NEAR THE INTAKE HAD FROZEN UP CAUSING PRESSURE TO BUILD UP AND IT BLEW OUR REAR MAIN SEAL, SNAPPED THE TIMING CHAIN AND BREAKING OF TEETH. THE MECHANIC SAID THIS WAS AN ISSUE WITH THESE VEHICLES AND THAT A SPECIAL BULLETIN HAD BEEN ISSUED BUT NOT ON OUR YEAR. WE ENDED UP PAYING JUST SHY OF 1900.00 TO FIX THIS. WE WERE ALSO TOLD THAT BECAUSE THE DESIGN FLAW HADN'T BEEN FIXED THAT THIS COULD HAPPEN REPEATEDLY. WE STILL OWE A LOT OF MONEY ON THIS CAR AND WE CAN'T AFFORD TO PAY THIS KIND OF BILL AGAIN. WE WOULD LIKE TO BE REIMBURSED.

MY VEHICLE HAD A OIL CHANGE AT 86,000 MILES. I HIT 90,722 MILES . THE VEHICLE WAS RUNNING FINE AND WHEN I GOT OFF WORK AND TRIED TO START THE CAR IT STARTED BUT THEN SHUT OFF. I HAD NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS, NO LOW OIL LIGHT AND HAD A PERFECT DIAGNOSTICS REPORT ON MY ONSTAR, I HAD TO GET THE VEHICLE TOWED TO A DEALER PER ON STAR, AFTER SPEAKING TO THE DEALER I WAS INFORMED THE MOTOR BLEW UP BECAUSE IT JUMPED TIME AND DUMPED OIL. I WAS ALSO TOLD THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS MOTOR BUT GM IS REFUSING TO FIX IT BECAUSE THE WARRANTY JUST WENT UP 6 MONTHS AGO . I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY SEVERAL SHOPS CHEVY KNOWS ABOUT THIS TIME CHAIN OR JUMPING TIME ISSUE AND IN MOST CASES A NEW MOTOR IS REQUIRED. I WOULD LIKE TO UNDERSTAND WHY NO WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON AND HOW OIL COULD DUMP AFTER HAVING A OIL CHANGE 3,000 MILES GIVE OR TAKE ? AND WHY CHEVY IS PASSING THE PROBLEM ONTO THE CUSTOMER.

MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING MY EQUINOX DOWNTOWN ST LOUIS, 3 HOURS AWAY FROM HOME AND CAME TO A STOP LIGHT. CAR WASN'T RUNNING RIGHT. SHAKING AND RATTLING. HE GOT PULLED INTO A PARKING GARAGE WHERE LATER IT HAD TO BE TOWED. THE NEXT DAY, THE BODY SHOP TOLD US THE PCV VALVE WAS CLOGGED OR FROZED AND PROBABLY BLEW THE SEALS. WE HAD TO HAVE OUR CAR TOWED 3 HOURS BACK TO HOME. THERE WAS NO WARNING, NO WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON BEFOREHAND. I HAVE COMPLETED ALL MAINTENANCE ON THIS VEHICLE AND HAVE HAD NO TROUBLE. I HAVE DONE RESEARCH ON THIS AND THIS SHOULD DEFINITELY BE A RECALL. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS. AND IN THIS CASE LEFT MY FAMILY STRANEDED 3 HOURS FROM HOME!

WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING WHILE DRIVING IN RAIN.

LIVING IN TEXAS WE NORMALLY DON'T HAVE VERY COLD TEMPERATURES BUT THIS WINTER WE HAD SINGLE DIGIT TEMPERATURES AND NEGATIVE WIND-CHILL FOR SEVERAL DAYS. MY FAMILY HAD NO RUNNING WATER OR ELECTRICITY AND TRIED TO DRIVE UP THE ROAD FOR FOOD (ROUGHLY 1/8TH A MILE) AND NOTICED A TRAIL OF OIL WHEN WE GOT OUT. MY HUSBAND HAS WORKED ON VEHICLES HIS WHOLE LIFE AND AFTER SOME INVESTIGATING AND RESEARCH DETERMINED THE PCV VALVE HAD FROZEN WHICH CAUSED THE REAR MAIN SEAL TO BLOW. AFTER TAKING IT TO A GM DEALER WE DISCOVERED HOW COMMON THE PROBLEM WAS, THERE WAS EVEN ANOTHER EQUINOX WITH THE SAME DIAGNOSIS (WE LIVE IN A VERY RURAL AREA SO FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AT THE SAME TIME SAYS A LOT). IT WAS NOT A CHEAP FIX COMING IN AT $1400. THIS WAS NOT A MAINTENANCE ISSUE BUT A FAILURE ON GM"S PART WITH THEIR FAULTY DESIGN AND EXECUTION OF THE MOTOR. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF OTHER STORIES I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO FIND WITH THE EXACT SAME ISSUE, SOMETIMES CAUSING EVEN MORE DAMAGE THAN WE HAD. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL OR COMPENSATION GIVEN TO THOSE WHO HAVE FOUND THEMSELVES IN A REAL BIND FROM THIS HAPPENING. WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF FILING A CLAIM THROUGH INSURANCE, SO HOPEFULLY THEY CAN HELP, BUT I CANNOT SPEAK ON THAT YET.

IT HAS 116 K MILES ON IT. IT DID NOT START. WE CHANGE NEW BATTERY BUT NO LUCK. THEN, WE TOW IT TO THE SHOP, THE MECHANIC FOUND THE TIMING CHAIN BROKE AND MISSED UP LOT OF THINGS. NOW, HE ADVISED TO CHANGE THE ENGINE AND FOUND IT VERY EXPENSIVE. OIL CHANGED REGULARLY AND THE MECHANIC FOUND OIL INSIDE THE ENGINE IS STILL CLEAN.

MY VEHICLE HAS CONSUMED MORE OIL THEN I CAN EVEN PHANTOM, TRADITIONALLY OIL IS SUPPOSED TO LAST 3K MILES AND WHEN YOU REGULARLY CHANGE IT YOU SHOULDN'T NOTICE MUCH CONSUMPTION IF ANY AT ALL, THIS VEHICLE NOT ONLY CONSUMES ON AVERAGE A QUART OF OIL EVERY 500 - 1K MILES BUT I AM ALSO NEVER ALERTED THAT MY OIL IS LOW. THIS IS DANGEROUS AS TYPICALLY WITH SYNTHETIC OILS COMING ALONG AND THE NEW RECOMMENDATION BEING 7500K MILES BEFORE OIL CHANGE I WOULD BE COMPLETELY DRIED UP IF I DID NOT CHECK MY DIP STICK REGULARLY. I ACTIVELY SEE SMOKE COMING FROM THE TAIL PIPE WHEN LEAVING A RED LIGHT AND CAN SMELL THE BURN WHEN EXITING THE VEHICLE, WHICH CAN'T BE GOOD FOR THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER. MY CAR WILL HAVE ROUGH/SURGING IDLE AT RED LIGHTS, HAS EVEN SHUT OFF AT ONE POINT COMPLETELY EVEN. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE O2 SENSORS AND I CONTINUE TO ADD 1-2 QUARTS OF OIL BETWEEN OIL CHANGES TO KEEP UP WITH THE EXCESSIVE CONSUMPTION. THERE WAS A LAWSUIT CLAIMING THIS PROBLEM ONLY EFFECTED 2010-2013 EQUINOX HOWEVER I KNOW NUMEROUS EQUINOX OWNERS WITH MODELS NEWER LIKE MYSELF WITH THESE SAME ISSUES. GM SHOULD EXPAND ENDING WITH MODEL YEAR 2017 AND STOP HIDING BEHIND THE BUSH.

MY 2015 CHEVY EQUINOX COMPLETELY FAILED ON 2/17/21. THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON FOR FIRST TIME THAT AFTERNOON AND 8 MINUTES LATER THE CAR COMPLETELT STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF 3 LANES OF TRAFFIC. CAR HAD TO BE PUSHED TO SAFETY THEN TOWED TO MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED TIMING CHAIN FAILURE WHICH ALSO DESTROYED ENGINE CYLINDERS. VEHICLE HAS 106K MILES AND ALL MANUFACTURER RECOMMENDED MAINTAINANCE WAS DONE ON SCHEDULE AT CHEVY DEALERSHIP OF PURCHASE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS LEAKING OIL ONTO THE EXHAUST. THERE WAS NO WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH NEEDING THE REAR MAIN SEAL TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 105,000.

I WAS OUT RUNNING ERRANDS AND I NOTICED THE ENGINE WAS IDLING ROUGH AND IT EVEN STALLED TWICE WHILE I WAS AT STOP LIGHTS. NO INDICATION OF ANYTHING WRONG BASED ON THE LIGHTS (NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, OIL LIGHT, ETC WAS LIT) BUT AFTER I GOT HOME I NOTICED AN OIL LEAK UNDERNEATH THE ENGINE ON MY DRIVEWAY. GOT TO A LOCAL MECHANIC AND THEY RECOMMENDED A NEW ENGINE DUE TO THE PCV VALVE FREEZING (I LIVE IN NORTHERN US AND IT'S WINTER) WHICH CAUSED THE REAR MAIN OIL SEAL TO FAIL AND A MASSIVE OIL LEAK. BECAUSE OF THAT, I WAS LIKELY DRIVING WITH LOW OIL PRESSURE, SOMETHING THAT THE CAR SHOULD HAVE HAD A SYSTEM TO TELL ME BUT DIDN'T. AND I'VE ONLY GOT 89,000 MILES ON IT! ENGINES SHOULDN'T BE FAILING THAT QUICKLY.

WHEN DRIVING SLOW BETWEEN 1ST AND 2ND GEAR WHEN YOU GET OFF THE GAS PEDAL AND TOUCH IT AGAIN YOU HEAR AND FEEL THE CLUNK , AS IF THERE'S PLAY IN TRANSMISSION, TURK CONVER LOCKING AND UNLOCKING. SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHINGS GOING TO BRAKE. OTHER PROBLEM IS THUMPING NOISE FROM SOMETHING IN FUEL TANK STARTS SLOW THEN SEEDS UP .MECHANIC SAID SOUNDS LIKE FUEL PUMP MODULE HE COULDN'T REPEAT THE PROBLEM. I ONLY HEAR IT WHEN I'M STOPPED WITH CAR RUNNING AND OFF THIS COULD MAKE NOISE WHEN DRIVING BUT THE NORMAL SOUNDS OF RADIO,TALKING WOULD DROWN IT OUT . I'M AFRAID IF IT'S THE FUEL PUMP ,IT CAN SHUT OFF WHILE I'M DRIVING I CAN HAVE AN ACCIDENT!

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR THE OTHER DAY AND IT STARTED MAKING A STRANGE NOISE AND A WAS A HALF A MILE FROM MY HOME AND PULLED IN THE DRIVE WAY TO HAVE MY HUSBAND CHECK MY CAR AND OIL WAS PORING OUT OF MY REGION ON THE DRIVEWAY. NO INDICATOR LIGHTS WENT ON TO TELL ME THERE WAS A PROBLEM EITHER. TOOK IT TO A SERVICE GARAGE AND THEY TOLD ME IT WOULD COST ME $4,500 TO FIX IT. I SERVICED MY CAR ON THE REGULAR SO I SHOULD OF HAD NO PROBLEMS.

WITH ONLY ONE DAY NOTICE MY ALERT SYSTEM NOTED ON MY DASHBOARD TO REDUCE POWER. AND TAKING MY VEHICLE TO A REPAIR SHOP, I WAS TOLD THAT MY ENGINE WAS RUINED BECAUSE OF EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION, WHICH IS A WELL-KNOWN PROBLEM FOR THE CHEVY EQUINOX. MY CAR IS A 2015 CHEVY EQUINOX. THE REASON I FEEL THAT IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE IS BECAUSE THE CAR JUST SHUTS OFF AND DIES ON THE HIGHWAY EVEN THOUGH I WAS ONLY ABLE TO GO 30 MILES AN HOUR. I HAVE THREE SMALL CHILDREN IN THE VEHICLE AND WAS ALMOST HIT SEVERAL TIMES WHEN THE CAR CONTINUED TO STOP. I STOP DRIVING ON HIGHWAY UNTIL I COULD GET HOME AND THEN THE CAR DIED IN DRIVEWAY AND I HAD NO BREAKS EVEN TO STOP THE CAR FROM ROLLING. I FEEL LIKE THIS SHOULD BE A ISSUE THAT GMC SHOULD BACK UP BECAUSE IT IS SUPPOSEDLY A WELL-KNOWN FACT THAT THE CHEVY EQUINOX HAS A HIGH CONSUMPTION OF OIL USAGE. I WAS NEVER TOLD THAT INFORMATION WHEN I PURCHASED THAT VEHICLE AS A USED VEHICLE THREE YEARS AGO. I OWE $11,000 ON THIS VEHICLE THAT I AM BEING QUOTED $8000 FOR REPAIRS. IF THERE IS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT REGARDING THIS PROBLEM THEN MY NAME SHOULD BE ENTERED IN THAT LAWSUIT SO THAT I COULD GET THE REPAIRS DONE ON MY VEHICLE SO THAT I AM ABLE TO GET BACK-AND-FORTH TO WORK AND GET MY CHILDREN TO SCHOOL AND GET MY VEHICLE REPAIRED

WIPER WAS FIXED ON 04/2020 BY PEP BOYS IN WILLIAMSTOWN, NJ AND ON 01/31/2021 THE SAME COMPLAIN (IT JUST STOP WORKING).

WHILE DRIVING IN A RAINSTORM ON COUNTRY ROADS, THE WIPERS STOPPED WORKING. THE WIPER MOTOR STILL TURNS BUT THE BLADES WON'T MOVE. SUPER DANGEROUS!! WE HAD IT REPAIRED AND 2 MONTHS LATER IT DID THE SAME THING DURING A SNOWSTORM. APPARENTLY THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE AND THEY HAD A RECALL ON A PREVIOUS EQUINOX MODEL BUT NONE SINCE. COME ON GM. GET THIS TAKEN CARE OF!!!

TL* THE CONTACT OWN A 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THE WHILE DRIVING AT 60MPH WHEN SHIFTING IN GEAR, THE CONTACT NOTICED WHITE SMOKE COMING INTO THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT PULLED OVER TO SIDE OF THE ROAD THE AND NOTICED SMOKE COMING INTO THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE AND FIRE UNDERNEATH THE TRUCK. THE FIRE EXTINGUISHED ITSELF. NO ONE WAS INJURED DURING THE FIRE AND THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO RESIDENCE. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WAS NOT NOTIFIED, AND FIRE DEPARTMENT REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DESTROYED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 156,000.

VEHICLE HAS 111,000 MILES ON IT AND CONSUMES 3 QUARTS OF OIL BETWEEN 5,000 MILE OIL CHANGE INTERVALS. WE HAVE ALWAYS HAD THE OIL CHANGED WHEN IT IS DUE. ANOTHER ISSUE IS THAT WHEN I TAKE THE OIL FILL CAP OFF, THERE IS A WHITE MILKY RESIDUE (WHICH INDICATES THAT THERE IS MOISTURE IN THE ENGINE) NOW, I KNOW THAT THESE 2.4 LITER ECOTECH ENGINES ARE NOTORIOUS FOR PCV ISSUES. BESIDES THE PC ISSUE, THE OTHER ISSUE THAT WORRIES ME IS THAT THE PISTON/RINGS COULD ALSO BE BURNT UP. THE VEHICLE STARTED STALLING OUT AS OF LAST WEEK, THEN FLASHED A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THE DTC CODES WERE P011 AND P010 WHICH ARE SIGNALS FOR BAD INTAKE AND EXHAUST CAM ACTUATOR SOLENOID'S OR (VVS T VARIABLE VEHICLE TIMING), MY GUESS IS THAT THE OIL IS SO CONTAMINATED THAT IT PLUGGED THE OIL SCREENS ON BOTHER ACTUATORS CAUSING THEM TO SEND FALSE SIGNALS TO THE ECM ON TIMING ADJUSTMENT TO THROTTLE RATIO. I AM NOT IN THE MARKET NOR CAN I AFFORD TO SELL, TRADE-OFF, OR PAY A MECHANIC THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO HAVE THIS REPAIRED. MY QUESTION IS, WILL THIS BE COVERED BY GM? OR AM I STUCK WITH A CAR AND A PAYMENT THAT SITS IN MY DRIVEWAY AND COLLECTS DUST?

WHEN VEHICLE IS UP TO NORMAL OPERATING TEMPERATURE ENGINE STALLS WHEN TRYING TO GO FORWARD OR REVERSE FROM A STOPPED POSITION. THIS IS A DANGEROUS VEHICLE IT STALL AT INTERSECTIONS AND AT STOP LIGHTS WHEN ACCELERATING. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT BUT SCAN TOOL INDICATES INTAKE TIMING ADVANCED BUT CAM SHAFT ACTUATOR IS GOOD.

MY PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WILL GO OFF SAYING IT IS NOT WORKING EVEN WHEN PEOPLE ARE SITTING IN IT. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND SHOULD BE A COVERED COST AT GM SHOULD REPAIR AND NOT THE CONSUMER.

TURNED THE WIPERS ON FULL SPEED DURING A DOWNPOUR AND THEY JUST STOPPED WORKING. LUCKY TO SURVIVE ON THE INTERSTATE, PULLED TO THE SHOULDER I THINK AS I COULD NOT SEE.

MY VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY NOT DRIVABLE. ON SATURDAY 2021 WE HAD IT TOWED TO OUR MECHANIC BECAUSE IT WOULD NOT START. WE HAVE BEEN INFORMED BY TWO MECHANICS THAT OUR ENGINE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THEY SAID THAT MY ENGINE BURNS AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL WHICH IS WHAT CAUSED IT TO GO BAD. BOTH MECHANICS STATED THAT THEY HAD TO REPLACE THIS 2.4L ENGINE IN A MULTITUDE OF CHEVY EQUINOX'S AND GMC TERRAINS. ONE OF THE MECHANICS HAD BOTH A CHEVY EQUINOX AND A GMC TERRAIN AT ONE POINT AND HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH BOTH OF THEM. I RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM AND IT IS IN FACT VERY COMMON AND GM KNOWS ABOUT IT. I PERSONALLY HAD 20 PEOPLE REACH OUT TO ME AND SAID THAT THEY OR SOMEONE THEY KNEW HAD THE EXACT THING HAPPEN TO THEM. IF THIS IS SUCH A WIDE SPREAD ISSUE THEN GM NEEDS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR FAULTY ENGINES. IT COSTS $6300 DO REPLACE AN ENGINE. THAT IS A LOT OF MONEY THAT INNOCENT PEOPLE SHOULD NOT HAVE TO SPEND JUST BECAUSE GM IS CHOOSING TO BRUSH THIS UNDER THE RUG.THIS IS A SAFETY RISK. MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT ONE POINT AND OUR CHEVY EQUINOX JUST SHUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE LANE BECAUSE OF THIS ENGINE PROBLEM. HE COULD HAVE BEEN HIT AND KILLED. IS IT GOING TO TAKE THAT TO HAPPEN FOR GM TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR SOMETHING THEY KNOW VERY WELL IS A PROBLEM?

THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS BEEN ON SINCE THE END OF MARCH 2020. MY MECHANIC IS UNABLE TO FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM. NO CODES COME UP ON THE COMPUTER FOR DIAGNOSING THE PROBLEM. 2 SENSORS HAVE BEEN CHANGED. TOOK IT INTO THE MECHANIC'S YESTERDAY AND THERE WAS LITTLE TO NO OIL IN THE VEHICLE. I WAS JUST DUE FOR AN OIL CHANGE. THE ENGINE MAKES A RATTLING SOUND WHEN IT IS STARTED UP. VERY FRUSTRATED BECAUSE I HAVE NOT HAD PROBLEMS WITH 4 OTHER GM VEHICLES THAT I HAVE PURCHASED IN THE PAST. THIS IS THE FIRST PROBLEM VEHICLE THAT I HAVE EVER OWNED. I DO NOT WANT TO OWN ANOTHER CHEVY AGAIN.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE READING IS SAYING THAT I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE CAM SHAFT. VEHICLE HAS 60,000 MILES ON IT AND EXCEPTIONAL UPKEEP HAS BEEN MADE. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS I WILL NEVER BUY A GM VEHICLE AGAIN BECAUSE YOUR CUSTOMER SERVICES IS REPULSIVE. I AM A SINGLE PERSON ON ONE INCOME I THOUGHT THAT I HAD A RELIABLE VEHICLE BUT I SEE NOW THAT I DON'T.

MY PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WILL GO OFF SAYING IT IS NOT WORKING EVEN WHEN PEOPLE ARE SITTING IN IT. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND SHOULD BE A COVERED COST AT GM SHOULD REPAIR AND NOT THE CONSUMER

ON DEC 31, 2020 I STRUCK A DEER ON A COUNTY RD GOING APPROX 45MPH. THE IMPACT WAS SO HARD THE DRIVE TRAIN WAS SHOVED INTO THE CAR AND THE RADIATOR EXPLODED AND THE ENTIRE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE WAS DESTROYED. NEITHER PASS. NOR DRIVERS SIDE DOORS WOULD OPEN. THE CAR IS A TOTAL LOSS YET THE AIRBAGS NEVER DEPLOYED THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE VEHICLE BUT YOU COULD SEE A WHITE POWDERY SMOKE AND IT SMELL AS IF THEY DID AND THE CAR NOW SAYS SERVICE AIRBAGS. ALSO THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE SEAT BELT NEVER RETRACTED BACK AND MY DAUGHTER AND I WERE BOTH INJURED AS I WAS SLAMMED INTO THE STEERING WHEEL SUFFERING DAMAGE TO MY CHEST AND FACE AND HER HEAD/ FACE BOUNCED OFF THE DASH DUE TO THE AIR BAGS NOT DEPLOYING AND THE SEATBELTS NOT WORKING. WE ARE LUCKY WE WEREN'T KILLED AS THE ENTIRE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE, ENGINE INCLUDED WAS PUSHED TO THE INSIDE OF THE CAR. WE WERE GOING TO LOOK INTO GETTING US ANOTHER EQUINOX AS I HAD JUST HAD THIS ONE FOR ABOUT SEVEN MONTHS BUT I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT BUT AFTER READING ALL THESE REPORTS THAT ARE IDENTICAL TO OURS AS FAR AS SEATBELTS AND AIRBAGS GO AND REALIZING THIS IS A VERY COMMON THING WITH 2015 EQUINOX AND AFTER THIS HAPPENING TO US IT'S OBVIOUS THIS VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE OR AT LEAST NOT SAFE TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT WITH AND IT SOUNDS LIKE THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL BUT YET THAT HASN'T HAPPENED. I HAVE READ HUNDREDS OF REPORTS EXACTLY LIKE THIS ONE. I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED IN CHEVY FOR LETTING THIS CONTINUALLY HAPPEN WITH NO RECALL OR WARNING TO YOUR CUSTOMERS. . A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED ON THIS AND INJURIES DID OCCUR. THE POLICE OFFICER AND THE WRECKER DRIVER SAID THEY'VE NEVER SEEN A DEER DO SO MUCH DAMAGE TO A VEHICLE BEFORE AND THE OFFICER COULD NOT BELIEVE THAT THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY ON US AND SAID THAT WE MOST DEFINITELY NEED TO CHECK INTO IT BECAUSE HE WOULD ASSUME THAT THEY WERE RECALLED BUT HERE WE ARE AND THEY'RE NOT.

MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN HAVING ISSUES FOR A COUPLE WEEKS WITH ROUGH IDLE AND MY RPMS REVING WHEN I LET OFF THE GAS PEDAL. ON 12/26/20, MY VEHICLE STALLED WHILE DRIVING IT. UPON RESTARTING IT, IT WAS MAKING A LOUD NOISE, BUT NO DASH LIGHTS WERE ON. I HAD IT TOWED TO A SHOP TO SEE WHAT WAS GOING ON. THE SHOP INFORMED ME THAT IT HAD LOST ALL OF THE OIL DUE TO A BUSTED MAIN SEAL. HE TOLD ME THAT HE HAD A BULLETIN THAT THIS WAS A COMMON PROBLEM IN MY VEHICLE. THE SEAL IS BUSTED BECAUSE THE DESIGN OF MY CAR ALLOWS MOISTURE INTO THE MANIFOLD WHICH THEN FREEZES AND BUSTS THE SEAL. IT IS COSTING ME $1500 TO FIX THE SEAL AND CLEAN THE MOISTURE FROM FROM THE MANIFOLD. I AM TOLD THAT THERE IS NO WAY TO PREVENT THIS FROM HAPPENING AGAIN. I AM VERY SCARED THAT I WILL BE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND THIS WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. I HAVE TALK TO CHEVY, BUT NOTHING HAS BEEN RESOLVED.

THE CAR STOPPED WHILE DRIVING AND TAKEN TO THE MECHANIC SHOP WHO DIAGNOSED THE REASON DUE TO A BROKE CHAIN AND THIS CAR HAS FREQUENT OIL CHANGES EVERY 3000 MILES AND THERE WAS NO INDICATION OR EVEN WARNING SIGNS PRIOR NOW THE ENGINE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. IT APPEARS TO HAVE THESE SAME ISSUES SEVERAL YEARS BACK AND THERE WERE RECALL AND I BELIEVE THAT MY CAR IS ALSO PART OF THIS SAME PROBLEM AND I NEED TO KNOW IF MY VEHICLE CAN GET FIXED UNDER THE RECALL POLICY.

FRONT WINDSHIELD WIPERS SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT WARNING OR ANY OTHER SIGNS OF FAILURE, STOPPED WORKING. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AND WIPERS WERE IN USE AS BACKING OUT OF PERSONAL DRIVEWAY. NO INDUCTOR LIGHTS ARE PRESENT.

THE ENGINE IS JERKING, JUMPING, CAR HAS NO POWER... COMPLETE PIECE OF CRAP.

WE HIT A DEER GOING 70 MPH LAST NIGHT ON INTERSTATE 10 HEADED WESTBOUND , UPON IMPACT THE AIRBAGS DID NOT GO OFF. WE SMELLED SOMETHING THAT SMELLED LIKE IT WAS BURNING, IT WAS THE IGNITER TO THE AIRBAGS. NOW THE CAR IS GIVING US A SERVICE AIRBAG MESSAGE ON THE SCREEN. OUR AIRBAGS ALL FAILED TO DEPLOY.

THE WIPERS IN THIS SUV HAVE STOPPED WORKING 4-5 TIMES NOW. MY HUSBAND REPLACED THE BALL JOINTS 3-4 TIMES AND THEN REPLACED THE WIPER TRANSMISSION LINKAGE. 2 OF THE TIMES IT WAS REPLACED THEY JUST STOPPED WORKING WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY WHILE RAINING HEAVILY. OTHER TIMES I NOTICED IT IN THE DRIVEWAY BEFORE LEAVING WHEN I TURNED WIPERS ON AND THEY DID NOT MOVE. TODAY THEY AGAIN ARE NOT WORKING, I NOTICED IT IN THE DRIVEWAY AFTER CLEARING ICE AND SNOW FROM WINDSHIELD BEFORE STARTING THE CAR. THE PROBLEM BEGAN AROUND 30-40K MILES. I'M CURRENTLY AT 97-98K

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING TO WORK AT 6:15AM CST ON WEDNESDAY DEC. 16TH. IT WAS STILL DARK AND RAINING ABOUT 38 DEGREES ON A HWY AT 55MPH, WHEN FOR NO REASON AND NO WARNING THE FRONT WINDSHIELD WIPERS WENT FROM A SLOW TO MEDIUM SPEED TO NOT WORKING AT ALL. THEY CAME UP AT ABOUT 90 DEGREES STRAIGHT UP. THEN A LITE 'POP' SOUND AND THEY WENT ALL THE WAY OFF THE WINDSHIELD HANGING OFF THE DRIVER'S SIDE. SHE HAD TO PULL OFF THE HWY AND LIMPED DOWN THE SIDE TO A SAFE PARKING AREA, THEN HAVE HER BOSS PICK HER UP. SO I RESEARCHED IT ONLINE. THE INTERNET WAS FULL OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME THING. BUT THE STRANGE PART, THEY (CHEVY) DID A 'RECALL' ON THE 2013. WHY NOT 2014 & 2015? NEEDLESS TO SAY MY LOCAL CHEVY DEALERSHIP HAD PLENTY OF THEM IN STOCK FOR $144.00 FOR THE WHOLE WIPER TRANSMISSION PART. I BOUGHT ONE AND CHANGE IT IN THE 40 DEGREE RAIN. IT HAS WORKED LIKE NEW SINCE.

ENGINE LIGHT WILL NOT CUT OFF

LIGHT WILL NOT GO AWAY

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT RAN SCAN SAID FLEX FUEL SENSOR BAD REPLACED NOW THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS BACK ON. SCAN SAYS LOW VOLTAGE IN FLEX FUEL COMPOSITION SENSOR. WHAT IN THE WORLD IS THE PROBLEM WITH THIS EQUINOX. SEEMS LIKE EVERYTIME YOU FIX ONE THING SOMETHING ELSE GO WRONG. THE RADION HAS COMPLETELY STOPPED WORKING. THE HEATER RESISTOR WENT BAD REPLACED IT NOW THE BLOWER MOTOR IS BAD. THIS CAR IS A LLEMON FROM THE FRONT BUMPER TO THE REAR BUMPER.. PIECE OF JUNK. EVERYTHING HAPPENS RIGHT AFTER ONE THING OR THE OTHER IS REPAIRED....

1 DEC 20; 0715HRS; VEHICLE STATIONARY; SLIGHT FROST ON WINDSHIELD; ACTIVATED WINDSHIELD WIPERS WITH WASH FLUID; WIPERS OPERATED CORRECTLY. BEGAN VEHICLE MOTION FOR A FEW SECONDS AND THEN ACTIVATED WINDSHIELD WIPERS WITH WASH FLUID AGAIN FOR A FEW SECONDS- DRIVER-SIDE WIPER BEGAN TO MOVE ERRATICALLY AND THEN FLOPPED OVER TO DRIVER SIDE WINDSHIELD PILLAR; PASSENGER-SIDE WIPER CONTINUED TO OPERATE CORRECTLY. FLUID WAS 'BLOWN OFF' BY WIND BUT HAD TO STOP VEHICLE AND PLACE WINDSHIELD WIPER ARM BACK IN REST POSITION BY COWL. DRIVER-SIDE WINDSHIELD WIPER ARM NO LONGER OPERATES. UNSAFE VEHICLE OPERATION WILL OCCUR IF INCLEMENT WEATHER CONDITIONS ARISE.

CAR WAS RUNNING AND DRIVING IN THE RAIN GOING ABOUT 30 MPH ON RESIDENTIAL ROAD AND THE WIPERS STOPPED WORKING COMPLETELY. THE MOTOR SOUNDS LIKE IT IS RUNNING BUT WIPERS DON'T MOVE. I CAN MOVE THE WIPERS FREELY WITH MY HAND. I BELIEVE THE WIPER TRANSMISSION ARMS HAVE BECOME DISCONNECTED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH IN THE RAIN, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS BECAME INOPERABLE. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A CERTIFIED MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE WINDSHIELD WIPER LINKAGE ASSEMBLY HAD FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT UNDER RECALL. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000. *BF CONSUMER STATED MANUFACTURE BELIEVES PART WAS DEFECTIVE.*JB

IT STARTED RAINING HERE IN CHICAGO SO I TURNED MY WIPERS ON. NOTHING HAPPENED... I HAD TO PULL OVER ON THE EXPRESS WAY BECAUSE I COULDN'T SEE. I COULD HEAR THE WIPERS BUT THEY WEREN'T MOVING. I HAD TO WAIT 2 HOURS FOR IT TO STOP RAINING. I COULDN'T SEE BECAUSE OF THIS. THIS IS A PROBLEM FOR MY HUSBAND'S 2014 EQUINOX SO HE DRIVES MY CAR BUT NOW, NEITHER BLADES WORK PROPERLY. THE DEALERSHIP WANTS TO CHARGE $400

MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON ALL THE TIME. EVEN WHEN THE OIL IS CHANGED AND THEY TURN THE THE LIGHT OFF. IT WILL COME BACK ON.

I WAS DRIVING HOME IN THE EVENING HOURS AND IT WAS POURING DOWN RAIN. WITHOUT WARNING, MY WIPERS STOPPED WORKING AND I COULD NOT SEE ANYTHING. IT WAS LIKE A CURTAIN WAS OVER THE WINDSHIELD. I IMMEDIATELY BRAKED AND SLOWED DOWN AND MADE IT TO A PLACE WHERE I COULD PULL OVER. A 20 MINUTE RIDE TOOK ME 1 1/2 HOURS TO MAKE BECAUSE I COULD NOT SEE. I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND ON OCTOBER 27, 2020, I WAS TOLD THAT THE WIPER MODULE WAS REPLACED.

OCTOBER 23 2020 APPROXIMATELY 1530 HOURS ON THE INTERSTATE 69 WHILE DRIVING IN THE POURING RAIN WITH WINDSHIELD WIPERS ON HIGH SPEED THEY (FAILED) STOPPED WIPING. I FINALLY PULLED OVER AT A GAS STATION (AFTER THE RAIN STOPPED) PULLED UNDER THE CANOPY AND A MAN (IN HIS 40S) APPROACHED ME AND ASKED; DID YOUR WIPERS QUIT RUNNING? ME; YES HIM; MINE QUIT IN THIS RAIN ALSO, THAT'S WHY I PULLED IN HERE, I OWN THAT EQUINOX RIGHT THEIR. AFTER FURTHER INVESTIGATING THE PROBLEM; ( YOU CAN HEAR THE WIPER MOTOR (GM84241847) STILL RUNNING BUT NOT WIPING.( WE BOTH HAD THE SAME PROBLEM) I GOT HOME, UPON FURTHER INSPECTION. (I FOUND THE NYLON NUT ON THE AGITATING ARM HAS COME OFF / LACK OF TERMINOLOGY) I SNAPPED THE NYLON NUT BACK ON AND THE WIPERS WORKED AS NORMAL. (THIS NYLON PART IS NOT WORN OUT OR BROKEN) I HAVE REPLACED THE PART (GM84241847) FOR PEACE OF MIND AND SAFETY REASONS. I'M A 68 YEAR OLD MAN I HAVE OVER A MILLION MILES OF DRIVING ON THIS INTERSTATE, THE 20 SECONDS MY WIFE AND I EXPERIENCED WAS PURELY TERRIFYING. THE THING THAT SCARES ME THE MOST IS; (ONE OF MY KIDS OR GRANDCHILDREN COULD HAVE BEEN IN THIS SITUTATION / OR YOURS) LESS EXPERIENCE DRIVER.

GOING DOWN THE ROAD IN POURING RAIN AND WIPERS QUIT WORKING. THEY HAVE A TERRIBLE BUSHING THAT POPS OFF AND IS AN EXTREME SAFETY CONCERN.

ON OCTOBER 16, 2020 I WAS PARKED AT WALMART GETTIN READY TO TURN ON MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND DRIVE MY DAUGHTER AND I HOME UNTIL WHEN I TURNED ON MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS THEY WOULDN'T WORK. SO I THEN WENT BACK INSIDE FOR SOME RAIN-X (WHICH DIDN'T HELP MUCH CUZ IT WAS RAINING AND RAIN-X IS SUPPOSED TO BE APPLIED TO A DRY WINDSHIELD) JUST SO I COULD GET US AND OUR GROCERIES HOME. THANK THE LORD WE MADE IT HOME SAFE, GROCERIES IN TACT!!! FOR THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS....I CHANGE MY FLUIDS ON A REGULAR BASIS YET EVERY WEEK FOR THE PAST BOUT 8 MONTHS NOW AS I SLOW DOWN GOING UPHILL TO PULL INTO MY FATHER IN LAW'S DRIVEWAY THE TRANSMISSION JERKS. THERE'S 89,234 MILES ON MY 2015 CHEVY EQUINOX, I'VE BEEN DRIVING IT SINCE IT HAD A LITTLE OVER 66,000 MILES ON IT.

I WAS DRIVING ALONG A HIGHWAY AT 55 MPH IN THE RAIN AND WIPERS STOPPED ABRUPTLY IN THE MIDDLE OF MY WINDSHIELD. I PULLED OVER AS SOON AS I COULD AS I COULD NOT SEE WHERE I WAS GOING. I CHECKED THE WIPERS AND MANUALLY PUT THEM DOWN. THERE WAS NO RESISTANCE TO THE WIPER AT ALL. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS THING TO HAVE HAPPEN WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND SUDDENLY HAVE NO WIPERS. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL AS I HAVE SEEN MANY COMPLAINTS ON YOUR WEBSITE.

IN JUNE I WAS DRIVING IN THE POURING DOWN RAIN ABOUT TO GET ON THE HIGHWAY AND MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS SHUT OFF, MY HUSBAND CHECKED THE FUSES (NOT BLOWN), CHECKED A FEW OTHER ISSUES THERE WAS A LOSE NUT, TIGHTENED IT NOT TIME IT RAINED THE WIPERS SHUT OFF AGAIN, THE LINKAGE ASSEMBLY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. 2 WEEKS AGO WHEN IT POURED DOWN THEY STOPPED WORKING AS I WAS ABOUT TO GET ON THE HIGHWAY. AFTER CHECKING THE NUT ATTACHING THE LINKAGE ASSEMBLY TO THE MOTOR WAS LOSE. WE TRIED TO LOOK UP THE PART TO REPLACE THE NUT NOTHING COMES UP. I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO. TOMORROW IT IS SUPPOSE TO RAIN ALL DAY AND NEED TO GET TO WORK. I WENT AND REVIEWED THE ISSUE WITH THE CAR I HAVE TO SEE IF ANYTHING CAME UP AND PEOPLE ARE POSTING AS CLOSE AS 10/12/20 THE SAME HAS HAPPEN TO THEIR WIPERS

VEHICLE STALLS AND SHUTS OFF WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP.

PLASTIC BUSHINGS USED TO HOLD WIPER ARM LINKAGE CONTINUES TO BREAK LOOSE. HAVE REPAIRED SEVERAL TIMES WITH PARTS AVAILABLE IN PART STORES. THIS DESIGN IS VERY POOR AND IS VERY DANGEROUS AS YOU CAN IMAGINE WHEN RAINING. THESE CONTINUE TO POP LOOSE OR BREAK. I WOULD CONTINUE TO HATE TO HAVE THIS GO OUT ON MY WIFE AND KIDS!!

I WAS DRIVING WITH MY GRAND DAUGHTER IN THE BACK SEAT AND THE WIPERS STOPPED WORKING WHICH IS VERY DANGEROUS IT WAS RAINING VERY HARD AND I COULDN'T SEE ANYTHING I WAS DRIVING ON GRAND CENTRAL PARKWAY COMING FROM THE AIRPORT

I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING HOME FROM WORK IN THE POURING RAIN WITH SEMI TRUCKS ON THE ROAD, WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS JUST STOPPED.

EVER SINCE WE GOT OUR VEHICLE IT USES OIL, SINCE MORE MILES HAVE GOTTEN ON THE SAID VEHICLE IT'S USING MORE OIL! OIL ISN'T CHEAP, I PUT MORE OIL IN MY 2015 EQUINOX THAN MY HUSBAND PUTS IN OUR 2004 DODGE RAM AND IT BURNS OIL BUT LESS THAN MY EQUINOX! I'M HAVING TO CHECK OIL LEVEL EVERYDAY BECAUSE OF THIS, MY HUSBAND AND I JUST HAD THE OIL CHANGED ON 10/3/2020 AND TODAY 10/5/2020 I'VE HAD TO ADD 1/2 OF A QUART OF OIL! I DON'T KNOW WHERE IT IS GOING TO BUT I'M STUCK WITH THIS CAR FOR QUITE AWHILE AND HONESTLY IT'S NOT WORTH IT AS MUCH OIL AS IT'S USING. NOW I'VE SEEN COMPLAINTS OVER OLDER MODELS HAVING A LAWSUIT AGAINST WHOMEVER FOR OIL CONSUMPTION ON THEIRS AND IN ALL HONESTY I'M NOT SURE IF THIS IS THE DIRECTION I NEED TO HEAD OR WHAT BUT SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS!!

AIR BAG SERVICE

I WAS DRIVING HOME AND DROVE OVER A POT HOLE IN THE ROAD WHEN I WAS TURNING AT INTERSECTION, THEN APPROXIMATELY 3-5 SECONDS AFTER CURTAIN AIR BAGS DEPLOYED AS WELL AS THE ONE FROM STEERING WHEEL. THE STEERING WHEEL AIR BAG DID NOT FULLY INFLATE DUE TO METAL FRAGMENTS THAT WERE SHOT OUT CAUSING A PUNCTURE TO THE AIR BAG AND THOSE FRAGMENTS CAUSED PUNCTURE WOUNDS TO MY ARM, AND CRACKED THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR WINDOW. I WAS NOT IN A COLLISION AT THAT TIME. I HAVE THE REPORT FROM MY INSURANCE WHERE IT STATES THIS CAR HAD A RECALL FOR AIR BAG ISSUES ONE BEING THAT OBJECTS MAY CAUSE INJURY AND OR DEATH FROM SHOOTING OUT. I HAD TAKEN MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP IN JUNE DUE TO THE STABILITIES AND SERVICE AIR BAGS LIGHT WAS ON. THIS WAS NOT DISCLOSED TO ME AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE AND ANY OTHER TIME I TOOK IT IN FOR SERVICES. AFTER INVESTIGATION THRU MY INSURANCE IT WAS DECLARED A TOTAL LOSS. I HAVE TRIED REPEATEDLY AND UNSUCCESSFULLY, TO REACH OUT TO MANAGEMENT FOR OVER A MONTH NOW AND THEY SEEM TO NOT WANT TO HELP. I HAVE PHOTOS TO SHOW CONDITION OF THE VEHICLE, THE 23 PAGE REPORT FROM MY INSURANCE AS WELL AS MY INJURIES. I PUT $5000 DOWN , INCLUDED IN THAT WAS A TRADE IN. NOW IM LEFT WITHOUT A CAR AND DEALING WITH A DEALERSHIP THAT SEEMS NOT TO CARE. ON THE 23RD PAGE IS WHERE IT STATES THIS VEHICLE MAY BE ONE OF THE AFFECTED ONES. WELL IT WAS BECAUSE IT HAPPENED TO ME. THE INSURANCE TOOK POSSESSION OF CAR OVER 2 WEEKS AGO.*DT*DT*DT*JB*JB*JS

I WAS DRIVING HOME IN THE RAIN AND ALL OF A SUDDEN IT STARTED RAINING HARDER. I TURN MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS ON HIGH, NEXT THING I NOTICED, THEY QUIT WORKING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY. SCARIEST DAY OF MY LIFE. I PULLED OVER AND NOTICE THEY WERE HALFWAY OFF MY WINDSHIELD

WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING DURING A RAIN STORM WHILE I WAS DRIVING AND WILL NOT TURN ON

THE BUSHINGS THAT CONNECT THE WIPER BLADES TO THE MOTOR HAVE BROKEN 3 TIMES IN THE LAST 2 WEEKS DURING A RAINSTORM CAUSING ME DELAYS IN DRIVING DUE TO LOSS OF VISIBILITY. ALL 3 TIMES I WAS NOT GOING MORE THAN 60 MPH. THIS IS ABSURD.

CAR CONTINUALLY RUNS MY BATTERY DOWN. RADIO MALFUNCTIONS, SEATBELT ALARMS GO OFF. CAR WILL START AT HOME AND I TRAVEL SOMEWHERE IT WON'T START JUST CLICKING. I'LL BE DRIVING BY MYSELF AND SEATBELT ALARM GOES OFF. ONE EVENING MY WHILE PARKED IN THE PARKING SPOT THE LIGHTS KEPT TURNING OFF AND ON I THOUGHT SOMEONE HAD BROKEN INTO MY CAR AND WAS PLAYING WITH THE LIGHTS. THE CAR IS A 2015 WITH ONLY 58K MILES.

THE BUSHINGS ON THE STABILIZER BAR POP OFF CAUSE THE WIPERS TO STOP WORKING. BUT CAN MOVE BY HAD. IN THE LAST WEEK I HAVE HAD TO HAVE THEM PUT BACK ON. AND THE PARTS THAT IT CALLS FOR DOESN'T WORK VERY LONG. THEY ARE NOT SNUGG ENOUGH. THEY STOPPED WORKING DURING THE RAIN WE HAVE HAD AND THE 1ST TIME I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE IN MIDDLE OF THUNDER STORM.

AFTER HEAVY RAIN FALL, I NOTICED WATER IN FRONT FLOOR BOARD OF BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE, AFTER LOOKING THE GLOVE BOX IS ALSO FULL OF WATER. I DO NOT SEE ANY LEAKS ON EITHER DOOR, OR THE WINDSHIELD AREA. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN IF DRIVING.

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD IN THE RAIN AND WIPER LINKAGE COMES LOOSE AND WIPERS QUIT WORKING. THEY ARE USING A CHEAP PLASTIC SNAP ON BUSHING. WHY HAS THIS NOT BEEN RECALLED?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH IN A RAIN STORM, THE DRIVER SIDE WINDSHIELD WIPER SUDDENLY BROKE OFF AND DISLODGED FROM THE VEHICLE AND THE PASSENGER SIDE WIPER SEIZED TO OPERATE. SMOKE WAS ALSO SEEN COMING FROM THE WIPER AREA. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE WIPER MOTOR TRANSMISSION KIT AND WIPER MOTOR HAD FAILED AND NEEDED TO REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED AND THE FAILURE WAS REMEDIED. THE LOCAL DEALER EL DORADO CHEVROLET LOCATED AT 2300 N CENTRAL EXPY, MCKINNEY, TX 75070 WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 47,000.

THE CHEAP CLIPS THAT THEY PUT ON THE WIPER ARM KEEP BREAKING AND I CAN BE IN THE MIDDLE OF A RAIN STORM AND MY WIPER ARM POPS OFF AND WIPERS STOP .

WHEN I CRANK MY CAR TO LET IT RUN BEFORE DRIVING OFF, THE DOORS AUTOMATICALLY LOCK WHEN I ATTEMPT TO GET BACK IN THE CAR. MY CAR IS THEN LEFT RUNNING WITH THE DOORS LOCKED AND I HAVE TO CALL FOR ASSISTANCE.

WIPERS STOPPED ABRUPTLY DURING A HEAVY DOWN POUR ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT DUE TO NO VISIBILITY.

AFTER MULTIPLE OIL LEAK REPAIRS VEHICLE STILL LEAKS OIL WHILE STATIONARY. WHEN THE HEAT IS ON THE SMELL OF OIL COMES INTO THE VEHICLE. I HAVE CHECKED FOR ANY RECALLS FOR THE VEHICLE BUT NOT HAVE ARRIVED.

WIPERS STOPPED WORKING WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY, ALMOST CAUSING ACCIDENT, AFTER REVIEWING ON LINE APPEARS TO BE MANUFACTURES DEFECT THAT IS NOT BEING RECALLED.

THE WIPERS ON OUR CHEVY STOPPED WORKING. COME TO FIND OUT THAT THE BALL JOINT RUSTED OUT. THIS WAS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE 2013 MODELS AND CHEVY DID NOT CARRY THIS RECALL TO THE 2015 TO 2016 MODELS THAT ARE ALSO AFFECTED BY THIS ISSUE. OUR UNIT IS A 2016 AND WE JUST HAD THIS ISSUE WHERE THE WIPER BLADES STOP WORKING RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF A HEAVY RAIN STORM. WE ALMOST GOT IN TO A VERY BAD CAR CRASH DUE TO ZERO VISIBILITY AS WE WAS DRIVING IN A RAIN STORM. THE OTHER ISSUES WE KEEP HAVING WITH THIS CAR AND THE CHEVY DEALER SAYS IT'S NOT A ISSUE. IS WHEN THE CAR STARTS THE ENGINE VIBRATES AND SPUTTERS A LOT. AN THE ENGINE DELAYS WHEN YOU NEED TO EXCEL GOING ON THE HIGH WAY.

2015 EQUINOX HAD A WINDSHIELD WIPER FAILURE DURING HEAVY RAIN MAKING THE VEHICLE UNSAFE TO CONTINUE DRIVING. AFTER INVESTIGATING FOUND THAT THE BUSHING ON THE WIPER MOTOR WAS FILLED WITH DIRT AND CAUSED IT TO SEPARATE LEAVING THE WIPERS INOPERABLE.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY (APPROX. 55MPH) IN POURING RAIN, WIPERS WERE ON HIGH-SPEED AND STOPPED IN THE UPRIGHT POSITION ABRUPTLY. THANKFULLY WAS ONLY ONE EXIT AWAY FROM MY HOME BUT HAD TO DRIVE WITHOUT WIPERS. VERY DANGEROUS!

WIPERS STOPPED WORKING WHILE IN USE IN A RAINSTORM WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY.

PURCHASED CAR 11/2014. CAR COMPLETELY SHUT OFF TWICE BETWEEN 11/2014 AND 02/2015. HAD CAR TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. WAS TOLD COMPUTER WAS BAD AND WAS REPLACED. FROM 02/2015 - 07/2020 CAR HAS SHUT OFF OVER 50 TIMES. HAD CAR REPAIRED TO REPLACE NUMEROUS SENSORS - CAMSHAFT TO OXYGEN. CAR WOULD JUST OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING ON BUSY CITY STREETS AND INTERSTATE HIGHWAY. RECENTLY CAR SHUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY INTERSECTION AND I WAS ALMOST HIT. CAR SHUT OFF 2 WEEKS AGO DURING A MAJOR RAIN STORM AND THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING ON THE INTERSTATE. CAR IS NOW IN THE SHOP AND BEING TOLD THE COMPUTER MUST BE REPLACED AND WINDSHIELD LINKAGE NEED TO BE REPAIRED. TOTAL COST OF OVER $1,000.

I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THIS VEHICLE BROUGHT TO THE DEALERS ATTENTION AND WAS TOLD NOT COVERED. VEHICLE STALLED OUT AND I WAS REAR ENDED DUE TO ISSUE WITH POWER TRAIN

IT STARTED RAINING AS WE LEFT A PARKED LOCATION SO THE WIPERS WERE TURNED ON. WITHIN A MOMENT THE WIPERS STOPPED IN THE UP POSITION. THE WIPER MOTOR COULD STILL BE HEARD RUNNING AND THE WIPERS WERE FREE TO MOVE BY HAND TO ANY POSTION.

WHILE DRIVING IN A HEAVY THUNDERSTORM YESTERDAY, 7/19/2020, OUR WIPERS STOPPED WORKING IN THE UPRIGHT POSITION. WE WERE UNABLE TO SEE THE ROADWAY AND HAD TO FIND A SIDE STREET TO PULL ON TO UNTIL THE RAIN SUBSIDED.

WITH NOT QUITE 63,000 MILES THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT KEEPS COMING IN AND I GET ALERTS FROM ON-STAR. MY MECHANIC LOOKED IT UP AND AN OCCURRING PROBLEM WITH THIS YR. ITS A VALVE THAT SENDS OIL TO THE DUAL CAMS...IT HAD NO POWER AND WAS USING WAY MORE HAS AND OIL THAN USUAL...THIS IS THE 4TH TIME IN A MONTH IT HAS BEEN LOOKED AT...IT ALSO SEEMS TO HAVE THE LURCHING TRANNY PROBLEM

WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD IN A RAINSTORM THE BUSHING WENT OUT AGAIN THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IT'S HAPPENED TO ME IN A YEAR

OWN A 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH IN THE RAIN, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS FAILED TO OPERATE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BY AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC MARCH 2019 FOR THE SAME FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS CURRENTLY AT THE SAME INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AWAITING DIAGNOSTIC TESTING AND REPAIRS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,000 THE FIRST TIME AND 166000 THE SEND TIME

THE WIPERS STOPPED WORKING IN THE UPRIGHT POSITION WHILE DRIVING IN THE MIDDLE OF A HEAVY RAIN STORM. I PULLED OVER TO MOVE THEM BACK DOWN AND TRIED TO TURN THEM ON AND THE WIPERS WOULD NOT MOVE. WE HAD TO PULL OVER UNTIL THE RAIN LET UP.

FRONT WIPER BLADE BUSHING EASILY COME APART. IT WAS RAINING AND I WAS DRIVING WHEN THE WIPERS STOPPED WORKING. DOING RESEARCH THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE THAT HAS NOT BEEN TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT FOR REPAIR.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY DURING A SEVERE THUNDER STORM WARNING, I TURNED MY WIPER BLADES ONTO THE SECOND HIGHEST SETTING. AFTER ABOUT A MINUTE THE WIPER BLADES STOPPED MOVING. VISIBILITY WAS ALREADY TERRIBLE WITH THE SHEETS OF RAIN, BUT WAS NOW INSTANTLY REDUCED TO ZERO WHILE I WAS TRAVELING AT 60 MPH IN DECENTLY HEAVY TRAFFIC. I WAS ABLE TO PUT ON MY HAZARDS AND LIMP MY WAY TO THE EDGE OF THE HIGHWAY. IT APPEARS THAT THE WIPER BLADE LINKAGE HAS BROKEN

I WAS DRIVING IN A HEAVY RAIN MY WIPERS STOPPED IN A UPRIGHT POSITION ON HEAVILY TRAVELED BACK ROADS WITH FLOODING LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER BUT WAITED FOR MORE THAN AN HOUR TO DRIVE HOME ALTHOUGH THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WILL NOT WORK AND I DID HAVE TO USE MY HAZARDS AND DRIVE 20 MINUTES TO MY HOUSE IN HEAVY RAIN VERY SCARY

WHILE DRIVING EAST BOUND ON OHIO TURNPIKE I-80/90 ON 06/23/2020 DURING HEAVY RAIN, THE WIPERS MOTOR OR WIPER TRANSMISSION FAILED WITH THE WIPERS IN A VERTICAL POSITION. WITH DRASTICALLY REDUCED VISIBILITY AND WHILE DRIVING IN A CONSTRUCTION ZONE IT WAS A DANGEROUS SITUATION I WAS PLACED IN BY THE FAILURE. AT THE DEALER I WAS NOTIFIED THAT THERE IS A SPECIAL COVERAGE FROM THE MANUFACTURER FOR THIS ISSUE. THIS IS INDICATIVE THAT A LARGER PROBLEM EXISTS AND PUBLIC SAFETY IS AT RISK BY NOT CHECKING AND REPAIRING ALL VEHICLES WITH THIS PART/ ASSEMBLY. THE REPAIR WAS COMPLETED AT JOE FIRMENT CHEVROLET IN AVON, OH. 866-675-5937. I DO NOT HAVE ANY PAPERWORK AS I HAD TO LEAVE QUICKLY AND COULD NOT WAIT FOR THE SERVICE ADVISOR WHO WAS ON A BREAK.

WHEN I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE IT STARTED TO POUR DOWN RAIN, I TURNED MY WIPERS ON FULL SPEED AND THE WIPER STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WINDOW AND WOULD NOT ACTIVATE. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON AN INTERSTATE ALMOST CAUSING ME TO WRECK DUE TO NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE OTHER TRAFFIC. WILL BE BRINGING THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE.

ALWAYS HAD CAR SERVICED REGULARLY, OIL CHANGED. AT 99K, REDUCED ENGINE POWER, SERVICE STABLI TRACK, ENGINE MAKING CLICKING SOUND, ACCELERATING AT FIRST WOULD MAKE A STRANGE HUM SOUND AND THEN IT REDUCED ENGINE POWER WHEN I HAD MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR. TOOK IT TO OUR LOCAL MECHANIC AND THEY SAID I NEED A NEW TIMING CHAIN, BONE DRY FOR OIL, SOLENOID VALVES IT NEEDED NEW ONES....END RESULT, PRETTY MUCH A WHOLE NEW ENGINE, COST ME ALMOST 3000 TO PAY. I HAD NO CHOICE BECAUSE IT WAS MY ONLY VEHICLE AND IM A SINGLE MOTHER WITH 2 KIDS. READING OTHER PEOPLES COMPLAINTS, THIS IS A MAJOR ISSUE AND ONLY A RECALL FOR 2011-2013 ONLY?? HOW HAS THIS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED AS OF YET? I WILL BE REACHING OUT TO GM ABOUT THIS BECAUSE I HAD NO WARNING LIGHTS UNTIL THE LAST SECOND WHEN MY CAR PRETTY MUCH STOPPED ON THE INTERSTATE WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR.

THE AIRBAG MODULE NEEDS REPLACING AT 109000 MILES AND COST $1100.00. WARRANTY IS EXPIRED. *TR

WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 55MPH IN A HEAVY DOWNPOUR. HAD TO PULL OVER AND WAIT UNTIL THE RAIN STOPPED. THE WIPERS WERE STUCK IN THE UP POSITION AND WERE EASILY PUSHED BACK DOWN IN ORDER TO SEE WHILE DRIVING HOME.

I WAS DRIVING HOME AND I WAS ON A MAJOR FREEWAY. IT WAS POURING DOWN RAINING AND I HIT THE WINDSHIELD WIPER GEAR TO SPEED IT UP BECAUSE I COULD NOT SEE. LUCKILY I DID NOT GET HURT ON THE FREEWAY. IT JUST SPEED UP AND STOPPED ALL OF A SUDDEN ON THE LEFT. IMMEDIATELY HAD TO SLOW DOWN AND HIT MY HAZARD LIGHT. I EVENTUALLY STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FREEWAY TO FOLD THE WIPERS DOWN JUST TO SEE IF THEY ONLY GOT STUCK. NO LUCK.....THEY STOPPED WORKING. OH AND IM ALSO IN THE LINE CLOSEST TO THE EXIT. THERE WAS MODERATE TRAFFIC AND CAR WAS IN MOTION.

HEAD GASKET DEFECT. *TR

VEHICLE MAKING A RATTLING SOUND FOR A FEW DAYS WHEN DRIVING AT LOW SPEED AND STOPPED WHEN AT HIGH RATE OF SPEED ON ALL ROADS. LOW OIL LIGHT NEVER INDICATED OIL WAS LOW. IT WAS STILL AT 8 PERCENT WHEN I TOOK IT IN AND HAD MILES TO GO UNTIL MY NEXT OIL CHANGE. I NEVER GO OVER THE MILES AND ALWAYS CHANGE MY OIL. THE MECHANIC INDICATED IT WAS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH CHEVY EQUINOX TO BURN EXCESSIVE OIL AND TO EVENTUALLY HAVE TO REPAIR THE PISTONS OR ENGINE. CALLED [XXX] WHERE I BOUGHT IT AND SEVERAL OTHER CHEVY SUVS AND THEY SAID MY VIN ISN'T COVERED UNDER THE 150000 WARRANTY FOR THIS KNOWN PROBLEM. HE ADVISED IT DIDN'T COME OUT OF THE FACTORY THAT WAS KNOWN FOR THIS PROBLEM. I TOLD HIM THEIR IS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM AND INDICATED VEHICLES FROM 2010 - 2017 ARE ALSO HAVING THIS PROBLEM. THAN, HE CHANGED HIS TUNE ON NOTHING HE COULD DO AND OFFERED TO MONITOR MY OIL EVERY 1000 MILES AND IF IT'S BURNING EXCESSIVE OIL AND NEEDS PISTONS OR A NEW ENGINE DUE TO THIS IT WILL BE MY COST. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

YESTERDAY, WHILE DRIVING HOME ON A ROAD DURING A DOWNPOUR, MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS, WHICH WERE TURNED ON ABRUPTLY STOPPED. I'M NOT SURE WHAT'S WRONG WITH THEM, BUT I'M HOPING TO FIGURE OUT SOON. THE WIPERS SOUND LIKE THEY'RE STARTING, BUT DON'T MOVE. I'VE BEEN INFORMED THAT THERE'S CURRENTLY AN INVESTIGATION INTO 2013-2016 CHEVY WIPER ISSUES, SO I WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU WERE INFORMED ABOUT MINE AS WELL. 2015 CHEVY EQUINOX. I CAN SUPPLEMENT IF NEED BE WHEN I GET MORE INFORMATION ON WHAT HAPPENED. *TR

WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING WHILE IT WAS RAINING. *TR

END OF LAST YEAR MY CAR DIED WHILE DRIVING. IT HAD NO OIL. AFTER PUTTING OIL STILL WOULD NOT START. THERE WERE NO WARNINGS FROM CAR THAT IT WAS LOW ON OIL. IT WAS IN MIDDLE OF TIME FOR NEXT OIL CHANGE. I LOOKED UP RECALLS AND THERE WAS NONE. I PUT IN COMPLAINT. THERE WAS LIKE 9 COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER PEOPLE DESCRIBING THE EXACT SAME THING. I REPLACED MOTOR WITH A USED ONE CAUSE I AM ON DISABILITY AND THAT'S ALL I COULD AFFORD. MY FIRST MOTOR HAD 115,000 MILES ON IT. AFTER REPLACING MOTOR, I HAVE BEEN CHECKING OIL REGULARLY AFRAID WOULD HAPPEN AGAIN SINCE SAME TYPE MOTOR. SURE ENOUGH BEEN HAVING TO ADD 2 QUARTS EVERY COUPLE MONTHS IN BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. THERE IS NO TRACE OF OIL LEAKING LIKE LAST MOTOR, NONE ON CONCRETE IN DRIVEWAY. I DON'T DRIVE VERY MUCH, AVERAGE DISTANCE IS 20 MILES OR LESS ROUND TRIP FEW TIMES WEEK. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THERE ISN'T A RECALL ON THIS MOTOR AND WHY NO NOTIFICATIONS THAT IT IS LOW ON OIL SINCE THERE ISN'T AN OIL GAUGE IN CAR. *TR

BUSHING FAILED IN FRONT WIPER MECHANISM. WIPER STOPPED MID-CYCLE WHEN SWITCHED DOWN FROM HIGHEST SETTING. IN HEAVY RAIN. MECHANIC COULD NOT GET REPLACEMENT BUSHING TO FIT - ENTIRE MECHANISM MUST BE REPLACED (MOTOR CAN BE SALVAGED). MECHANIC'S ATTEMPT TO GET BUSHING TO FIT SEEMED TO FINALLY WORK, BUT FAILED ON FIRST TEST IN SAME WAY AS BEFORE. BIG HASSLE FOR SMALL PART. *TR

WENT ON 1,000 MILE TRIP AND CAR DIED. WAS ABLE TO JUMP IT EVERY TIME AND IT STARTED. RETURN TRIP OF ANOTHER 1,000 MILES. CAR WAS CHUGGING WHILE PARKED. LATER ENGINE WAS MAKING A RATTLING SOUND. PUT IT IN REVERSE TO PARK AND ENGINE DIED. MADE A TERRIBLE NOISE WHEN TRYING TO START IT. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THAT THE TIMING CHAIN CAUSED ENGINE TO FAIL AND ALSO OIL WAS COMPLETELY DRY. I GET MY VEHICLE SERVICED REGULARLY BY RANDY REED CHEVROLET IN ST. JOSEPH, MO (FREE OF CHARGE SINCE PURCHASING THE VEHICLE 2 YEARS AGO) WAS NEVER ONCE TOLD OF AN OIL BURNING ISSUE. AFTER DOING RESEARCH I FIND IT SHOCKING THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS MAKE AND MODEL OF CAR. THIS VEHICLE IS ONLY 5 YEARS OLD AND SHOULD NOT HAVE A FAILING ENGINE! NOW I'M STUCK MAKING PAYMENTS ON A CAR I CAN NOT EVEN USE WITH REPAIRS THAT COST AS MUCH AS ANOTHER CAR. *TR

I WAS DRIVING WITH MY WIFE AND CHILD AND SUDDENLY IT STARTED TO RAIN. IT WAS A DOWN POUR SO I TURNED ON THE WIPERS AND THEN AFTER A FEW SECS THE WIPERS STOPPED WORKING. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND STOP DRIVING UNTIL THE RAIN CLEARED. LUCKILY I DIDN'T GET INTO AN ACCIDENT BUT NOT TO SAY SOMEONE ELSE HASN'T DUE TO THIS ISSUE. *TR

DURING HEAVY, HEAVY RAIN ON A BUSY HIGHWAY AT 65MPH, THE WIPERS STOPPED WORKING RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE DRIVER. I ALMOST GOT HIT TRYING TO GET OFF THE HIGHWAY BECAUSE I HAD NO VISIBILITY.*DT*JB

VEHICLE BATTERY DIES, CAR DIES. NO THEM OR REASON TO IT. IT WILL NOT START. BATTERY IS LESS THAN A YEAR OLD. TRY TO START THE VEHICLE AND NOTHING, NO INTERIOR LIGHTS RADIO, NOTHING. OTHER TIMES IT WILL LET THE INTERIOR LIGHTS COME ON AND JUST CLICKS. THIS IS AFTER THE CAR HAS SAT FOR 2-3 DAYS AND NOT DRIVING OR GOING ANYWHERE DUE TO THE CORONA VIRUS. WENT OUT THE NEXT DAY, STARTED FINE. WE EVEN TRIED JUMPING THE CAR OFF FROM ANOTHER VEHICLE AND IT WOULDN'T EVEN CLICKED IT WAS TRYING TO START. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES OVER THE LAST YEAR. RESULTING IN REPLACING THE BATTERY. NOW IT'S STILL HAPPENING AND THE BATTERY IS LESS THAN A YEAR OLD. *TR

WHILE DRIVING IN THE MIDDLE IF A STORM, THE WIPERS STOPPED IN THE UP POSITION. THIS WAS INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS, EVEN TO JUST PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. CHECKED THE FUSES AND NOTHING HAD BLOWN. CAN'T GET THEM WORKING AT ALL. HAVE SCHEDULED A VISIT TO THE DEALERSHIP, PROVIDED IT'S NOT RAINING. *TR

SAME PROBLEM AS THE 2013 EQUINOX. BUSHING HAS CORRODED AND BROKEN ON THE WIPER TRANSMISSION LINKAGE ASSEMBLY. NEITHER WIPER BLADES OPERATE. SAME PROBLEM AS THE 2013 CHEVROLET EQUINOX VISIBILITY RECALL 16V582000. *TR

FIRST THE SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON AND NONE OF THE BUTTONS ON THE STEERING WHEEL WORK. NOW THE HORN IS CONTINUOUSLY BLOWING WHILE DRIVING, AND WON'T STOP UNTIL THE CAR IS TURNED OFF. *TR

WIPERS STOPPED WORKING WHILE DRIVING DURING A STORM. TERRIFYING. ALMOST HIT ANOTHER CAR TRYING TO PULL OFF. COULD NOT SEE ANYTHING. HAD TO GET HOME; HAD TO DRIVE VERY SLOW WITH EMERGENCY LIGHTS ON AFTER THE INITIAL NEAR DEATH EXPERIENCE. WE COULD HAVE DIED THAT DAY. DOES ACTUAL DEATH INITIATE A RECALL? IF SO, HOW MANY BEFORE IT'S IMPORTANT. I'VE SEEN ALL THE PREVIOUS COMPLAINTS. PLEASE HELP. *TR

WHILE DRIVING THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS SUDDENLY STOPPED IN THE UP POSITION. THIS OCCURRED WHEN IT WAS RAINING. I WAS UNABLE TO CONTINUE AND HAD TO PULL OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. THE SITUATION WAS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT AND DANGEROUS.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY IN A RAIN STORM MY WIPERS STOPED WORKING. MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE SAFELY. WIPERS WOULDN'T GO ON NO MATTER IF I TURNED THEM ON HIGH OR LOW.

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM CHICAGO TO INDIANA WHEN ON THE EXPRESSWAY DRIVING IN THE RAIN MY WIPER JUST STOPPED. SO I HAD TO PULL OVER ON THE SHOULDER LUCKY I DIDNT GET INTO AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE IT WAS RAINING HARD.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING. IT'S RAINING HARD AND I CAN NO LONGER SEE.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON GOT A NOTIFICATION FROM ONSTAR STATING THAT ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION SYSTEM ISSUE HAS BEEN DETECTED. ALSO WHEN I SHUT DOWN MY VEHICLE AND RESTARTED IT THE STARTER KEEP MAKING THIS SOUND LIKE IT WANTED TO START AND DID NOT THEN DID. THEN I GOT A MESSAGE ON THE DASH SAYING THAT SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH POWER STEERING.

MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS WERE ENGAGED WHILE I WAS DRIVING AND THEY STOPPED WORKING. I CAN HEAR NOISE FROM THE WIPERS BUT THEY WON'T MOVE. I CAN EASILY MOVE THEM EITH MY HAND.

MY VEHICLE HAD TURNED OFF WHILE DRIVING IT SPUTTERED A BIT THE SHUT OFF.. I STARTED IT BACK UP THEN I DROVE HOME AND TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THE FOLLOWING DAY. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS OR ANYTHING EVER POPPED UP TO GIVING ANY WARNING. DEALERSHIP SAID IT WAS A SOLENOID IDK IF I SPELLED THAT RIGHT. I HOPE ITS THE PROBLEM

THE CAR RADIO SHUTS OFF AND COMES BACK ON AFTER ABOUT 10-15 SECONDS. SO FAR IT HASN'T CAUSED ANY PROBLEMS BUT WHEN WE TRAVEL I'VE COME TO DEPEND ON THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM AND WOULDN'T WANT IT TO DO THIS WHEN A DIRECTION COMES UP. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 3 TIMES WHEN I WAS DRIVING I DON'T KNOW IF IT HAS EVER HAPPENED WITH MY WIFE. PLEASE HELP US. *TR

ON ~1/15/20 I WAS DRIVING ~40 MPH ON A SUBURBAN STREET, I HAD JUST GOTTEN OFF A HIGHWAY, A WARNING APPEARED ON MY DASH STATING THAT MY VEHICLE HAD NO OIL AND TO STOP AND TURN OFF THE VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY. I DROVE ONE BLOCK TO A GAS STATION AND PUT 2 QUARTS OF OIL IN THE VEHICLE BUT AFTER LOOKING UNDER THE TRUCK, I SAW THAT A GREAT DEAL OF OIL LEAKED RIGHT ONTO THE GROUND. I MADE A SPLIT DECISION TO PUT ANOTHER QUART IN AND DRIVE ~2 MILES TO A NEARBY REPAIR SHOP I USE. MY TRUCK WAS ASSESSED AND I WAS INFORMED THAT I HAD A MAJOR OIL LEAK. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE CHEVY DEALERSHIP TO BE REPAIRED ON 1/21/20. THE DEALERSHIP TOOK 8 DAYS TO REPAIR MY TRUCK AND HAD NO LOANER VEHICLE FOR ME TO USE DURING THE REPAIR. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH, I FOUND THAT THIS SAME ISSUE HAS BEEN REPORTED MANY TIMES BY OTHER CHEVY OWNERS WITH THE SAME VEHICLE MAKE AND MODEL.

TIMING CHAIN FAILED AND TRASHED THE ENGINE... 3 MONTHS OUTSIDE OF WARRANTY BUT EVERYONE WE'VE TALKED TO FROM CAR DEALERSHIPS, RENTAL CAR COMPANIES, MECHANICS, TOW SHOPS ETC ALL SAID WHEN I TOLD THEM MY TIMING CHAIN FAILED AND TRASHED THE ENGINE YOU KNOW WHAT ALL OF THEM SAID? IS IT A CHEVY EQUINOX?

PCV UNIT BLEW UP AND BLEW OIL OUT THE BACK OF MY ENGINE. IT'S A COMMON PROBLEM WITH MANY AND GM WONT FIX THE PROBLEM. EVEN THE EXTRA NEW CAR INSURANCE PLAN WE BOUGHT WONT COVER IT. THIS CAR IS ONLY 5YRS OLD

VERY SLOW TO PICK UP SPEED FROM A COMPLETE STOP. AND ALSO VERY SLOW PICKING UP SPEED GOING UP A HILL, TRANSMISSION SHIFTS VERY SLOWLY AND ENGINE BECOMES LOUD WHEN LEAVING FROM A COMPLETE STOP OR GOING UP HILLS. THIS ISSUE HAPPENS ALL THE TIME SINCE THE PURCHASE OF A VEHICLE. ASK A DEALER REGARDING THIS ISSUE AND THEY SAID THAT'S JUST THE WAY THE VEHICLE WAS MADE.

DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY @ 60MPH WHILE RAINING AT WIPERS STOPPED IN UP POSITION . WAS ABOUT 1 MILE BEFORE THE NEXT EXIT. SPED UP TO GET TO A SAFE PLACE BEFORE I CRASHED DUE TO NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE.

STEERING WHEEL MAKES A DRAGGING SOUND

STERRING WHEEL DRAGS

I WAS DRIVING ON I-285 IN ATLANTA DURING A HEAVY RAIN STORM ON MY WAY TO WORK AT 6:15AM. AS I WAS APPROACHING THE I-20 EAST EXIT MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS GOT STUCK. PLEASE NOTE, THE I-20 EAST EXIT IS LOCATED ON THE FAR LEFT LANE OF THE I-20 EXPRESSWAY. I QUICKLY TRIED TURNING THE WINDSHIELD WIPER ON/OFF TO SEE IF IT WOULD RESET, BUT THERE WAS NO MOVEMENT. THE HEAVY RAINS/STORM COMPLETELY BLOCKED MY VISIBILITY. I USED MY RIGHT SIDE VIEW MIRROR AND REAR VIEW MIRROR TO CROSS FIVE LANES ACROSS I-285. AS I HAD MADE MY WAY TO THE RIGHT SIDE OF I-285, THERE WAS NOT A SHOULDER LANE. I HAD TO STOP THE VEHICLE AND TURNED ON MY INTERMITTENT LIGHTS TO PREVENT FROM BEING REAR ENDED. WHEN THE RAIN SLOWED DOWN AND I QUICKLY GOT OFF THE NEXT EXIT ON I-20 WEST AND PARKED ON THE SHOULDER LANE AS I EXITED OFF THE RAMP. MY HUSBAND PICKED ME UP FROM THE HIGHWAY BECAUSE I WAS NERVOUS AND SCARED. MY VEHICLE WAS PARKED UNTIL THE RAIN STOPPED 2.5 HOURS LATER BECAUSE IT WAS NOT DRIVABLE DUE TO THE HEAVY RAIN/STORM. I CHECKED IF THERE WAS A RECALL FOR MY VEHICLE AND COULD NOT LOCATE ANY RECALLS FOR WINDSHIELD WIPER PROBLEMS FOR THE YEAR OF MY VEHICLE. THERE WERE RECALLS FOR PREVIOUS MODEL YEARS. AS SOON AS THE RAIN STOPPED, MY HUSBAND TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER WHERE THEY CONFIRMED THERE WERE NO ACTIVE RECALLS. I WAS ALSO NOT INFORMED BY CHEVROLET ABOUT THE POTENTIAL ISSUE. AFTER MY EXPERIENCE, I DID SOME RESEARCH AND DISCOVERED NOTICED MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS REGARDING THE SAME ISSUE VIA THIS SITE AND OTHER CHAT GROUPS. THE DEALER REPLACED THE WINDSHIELD WIPER MODULE AND I WAS NOT CHARGED FOR THE SERVICE. I AM REPORTING THIS INCIDENT BECAUSE OWNERS / DRIVERS OF THE 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX SHOULD NOT LEARN ABOUT THIS SAFETY HAZARD THE SAME WAY I LEARNED ABOUT IT. THE EXPERIENCE WAS A SCARY ONE THAT I AM THANKFUL DID NOT TURN INTO AN ACCIDENT OR A TRAGIC EVENT.

VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AND WIPERS BROKE WHEN TURNED ON

I WAS DRIVING FROM BALTIMORE TO LEESBURG VA FOR MY COLLEGE CLASSES. WHILE DRIVING IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC ON INTERSTATE 495 NEAR WASHINGTON DC IS WHEN MY CAR SUDDENLY STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. IT CONTINUED TO STALL SEVERAL TIMES AND ANYTIME THE VEHICLE WAS GOING UNDER 20 MPH. THIS CONTINUED UNTIL I REACHED MY DESTINATION 1-1/2 HOURS LATER. ALTHOUGH NOT IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC THIS CONTINUED ON MY 2 HOUR RETURN TRIP LATER THAT EVENING. IN THESE TWO INCIDENTS THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE NEXT DAY, EVERY TIME I STOPPED THE CAR IT WOULD SURGE AS IF I WAS PUSHING THE GAS PEDAL. THEN THE CHECK ENGINE CAME ON FOR THE FIRST TIME. THE ENGINE RATTLING AND WHINING CONTINUOUSLY. THE VEHICLE ALSO SEEMS LIKE IT HAS TROUBLE SHIFTING FROM 2ND TO 3RD GEAR AND WHEN IT DID, THE CAR SHIFTED VERY HARD AND ABRUPT NOT KNOWING WHAT THE ISSUE WAS I WENT TO A MECHANIC AND HE TOLD ME THE VARIABLE TIMING SOLENOIDS WERE FAILING. HE ALSO TOLD ME THERE WAS NO OIL IN THE ENGINE. COME TO FIND OUT THESE SOLENOIDS CALLED "VVT" NEED OIL PRESSURE TO OPERATE NOT ONE TIME DID MY OIL LIGHT COME ON TO INDICATE AN LOW OIL LEVEL. THE CAR ONLY SHOWS OIL LIFE PERCENTAGE, WHICH TELLS ME WHEN TO CHANGE THE OIL. UPON DOING SOME RESEARCH THERE IS A KNOWN OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEM WITH THE 2.4L ECOTECH ENGINE AND GENERAL MOTORS IS AWARE AND HAS HAD A CLASS ACTION CASE AGAINST THEM.I HAVE A 2015 EQUINOX AND HAVE HAD JUMP THROUGH HOOPS TO GET GM TO TAKE OWNERSHIP OF THIS.THEY ARE TELLING ME IT IS MY PROBLEM, BECAUSE I DON'T MAINTAIN MY OIL CHANGE INTERVALS, WHICH IS NOT TRUE. I DO AS THE WARNING LIGHTS TELL ME. I DO FEEL THIS POSES A SERIOUS THREAT TO MY SAFETY AND OTHERS WHO HAVE THIS VEHICLE OR THE 2.4L ECOTECH ENGINE. I THINK THIS VEHICLE IS UNSAFE FOR DRIVING ON HIGHWAYS OR EVEN WHERE THERE ARE LOTS PEDESTRIANS.

MY TRANSMISSION HAS GONE OUT CAUSING MY CAR TO STALL AND NOT ACCELERATE FOUR TIMES SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. ALSO THE ENTIRE COMPUTER SYSTEM JUST SHUT DOWN AND MY VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. WINDSHIELD WIPERS FLY OFF FREQUENTLY. MY TRANSMISSION ISSUE HAS HAPPENED ON MAJOR FREEWAYS THREE TIMES NOW CAUSING ME TO STALL AND SIT ON THE SIDE OF FREEWAY UNTIL TOW TRUCK BECAME AVAILABLE.

CAR IS BURNING OIL AT ABNORMALLY FAST RATE. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING WITH QUART OF OIL IN MY CAR AT ALL TIMES SINCE FINDING OUT ABOUT EXISTING PROBLEM WITH EARLIER MODEL YEAR VEHICLES AND NOTICING THE PATTERN IN MY VEHICLE. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND REDUCED ENGINE POWER NOTIFICATION CAME ON WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY. THE STABILITY TRACK NOTIFICATION CAME ON AS WELL. I AM NOW BEING TOLD BY LOCAL MECHANIC THAT I MAY NEED A NEW ENGINE. I WAS INFORMED BY LOCAL DEALERSHIP THAT TIMING SHAFT AND ACTUATOR MAY NEED TO BE REPLACED JUST TO GET THE CAR TO START. THE UNDERLYING PROBLEM IS THE SAME AS THE EXISTING PROBLEM IN CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT FOR 2010-2013 MODELS. CHEVROLET HAS BUILT AN ENGINE THAT DOESN'T WORK AND THEY NEED TO PAY FOR THIS. HOW MANY COMPLAINTS DOES THERE NEED TO BE BEFORE SOMETHING IS DONE.

WIPERS STOPPED WORKING AFTER HEARING A LOUD NOISE.I CAN STILL HEAR THE WIPER MOTOR WORKING BUT WIPERS DON'T WORK. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION DURING RAIN ON HIGHWAY WHEB THIS HAPPENED

WIPERS STOPPED WORKING DURING HEAVY RAIN ON THE HIGHWAY. I UNDERSTAND THE WIPER TRANSMISSION IS A PROBLEM WITH THE EQUINOX.

DRIVING AT NIGHT ON A HIGHWAY AND IT WAS RAINING AND MY WIPERS COMPLETELY STOPPED WORKING..

MY 2015 CHEVY EQUINOX BEGAN STALLING AND IDLING LOW TO THE POINT THAT SLOWING DOWN OR STOPPING WOULD CAUSE A STALLING ISSUE; GOING IN REVERSE WOULD CAUSE A STALLING ISSUE; PUTTING IT IN PARK WOULD CAUSE A STALLING ISSUE. SOMETIMES THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD COME ON, BUT MOST TIMES IT DID NOT. THE VEHICLE MAINTAINS A REGULAR OIL CHANGE AND MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE YET THIS PROBLEM, WHICH WAS INTERMITTENT AT FIRST, BEGAN HAPPENING EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN. COULD NOT BE DRIVEN DUE TO SAFETY CONCERNS. VERY SCARY IN TRAFFIC!

THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS ARE NOT WORKING. WE HAVE REPLACED THE BUSHINGS TWICE AND THEY CONTINUE TO STOP WORKING. THEY WILL WORK TEMPORARILY AND THEN FAIL AGAIN. THIS ORIGINALLY HAPPENED IN JULY OF 2019 AND AGAIN IN DECEMBER OF 2019

WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT NIGHT ABOUT 70 MPH IN A VERY HEAVY RAIN MY WIPERS STOPPED WORKING IT WAS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION I HAD TO LEAVE MY CAR ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TILL THE NEXT DAY AND THANK GOD IT WASN'T RAINING.

I RECEIVED A NOTICE FROM GM ON MY 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX ON 2/6/20 STATING THAT THERE MAY BE A CONDITION WHERE A LINK BALL SOCKET IN THE WIPER TRANSMISSION MAY SEPARATE. IF THIS WERE TO OCCUR, THE DRIVER WOULD EXPERIENCE A SUDDEN LOSS OF WIPER FUNCTION! AFTER TALKING WITH GM AND THE DEALER, WAS TOLD THIS DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A RECALL. I STRONGLY DISAGREE!

DRIVING IN RAIN AT NIGHT WHEN WIPERS SUDDENLY STOPPED. CHECKED FUSES, NO SUCCESS. HAD TO REPLACE WIPER MOTOR.

I HAVE 2015 CHEVY EQUINOX THAT IS SHUTTING OFF WITH INTERMITTENT ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON . TRUCK IS DRIVING ROUGH FEELS AS IF IT WANTS TO STALL WHILE I'M DRIVING.

I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO MY MECHANIC FOR SOME MINOR WORK & HE FOUND A MUCH BIGGER PROBLEM. MY TIMING CHAIN IS MAKING ALOT OF NOISE & HE TOLD ME IT WILL RUIN MY ENGINE. MY ENGINE ONLY HAS JUST OVER 95, 000 MILES ON IT. WHAT CAN BE DONE ABOUT THIS ISSUE?

DRIVING AT NIGHT IN RAIN STORM, POURING DOWN RAIN, WIPERS STOPPED WORKING MID SWING. I WAS ON A DARK HIGHWAY 15 MILES FROM ANY WHERE, TURNED AROUND AND HEADED HOME, TRAFFIC WAS NON STOP ,I WAS SCARED TO DEATH.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHILE, DRIVING AT 60 MPH, THE STABILITY TRACK WARNING LIGHT, DECREASE ENGINE POWER (LIMP MODE) AND OIL PRESSURE WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE LOST MOTIVE POWER AND STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO STATED THE REAR SEAL AND PVC NEEDED TO BE FLUSHED AND TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REMOVED. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE FAILURE WAS NOT COVERED UNDER TSB 14882. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 81,000.

2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 60 MPH WHEN SUNROOF SHATTERED. I HEARD A LOUD NOISE AND DID NOT SEE ANYTHING THAT COULD HAVE HIT MY CAR. I PULLED THE COVER BACK ON THE SUNROOF TO SEE IF I COULD SEE WHAT HAPPENED. THE ONLY THING I COULD SEE WAS GLASS CRACKED INTO A MILLION PIECES. THE SUNROOF SHATTERED OUT OF NO WHERE. GLASS FLEW OFF THE TOP OF MY SUV WHILE OTHER DRIVERS WERE BEHIND ME, WHICH PUT MANY DRIVERS IN DANGER. FIRST MY WIPERS STOP WORKING OUT OF THE BLUE AND NOW MY SUNROOF SHATTERS. THESE VEHICHLES ARE DEFECTIVE AND NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. RECALLS SHOULD BE ISSUED FOR THE 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX IN THE UNITED STATES BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY INJURED OR LOOSES THEIR LIFE.

HAD MY EQUINOX FOR COUPLE YEARS WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS. JUST RECENTLY ABS LIGHT CAME ON ALONG WITH TRACTION CONTROL. SUV SLIDES TO THE SIDE WHEN APPLYING BREAKS. A MONTH BEFORE THIS STARTED ENGINE LIGHT KEPT TURNING ON AND OFF. DIDN'T STAY LONG ENOUGH TO SEE WHATS WRONG. GAS GAUGE DOES NOT SHOW CORRECT AMOUNT OF FUEL 1 OUT OF 5 DAYS.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN A TWO WAY ROAD WHEN IT STARTED POURING ALL OF A SUDDEN LIKE IT TENDS TO DO WHERE I LIVE. I TURNED ON MY WIPERS AND THEY ONLY WORKED FOR A COUPLE OF MINUTES BEFORE THE PASSENGER SIDE WIPER TURNED PAST THE WINDSHIELD AND GOT STUCK IN THAT POSITION. I COULD NOT SEE A THING AND HAD TO PULL OVER UNTIL THE RAIN STOPPED, THIS IS WAY TOO DANGEROUS. I'M LUCKY THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN WHILE ON THE FREEWAY. I TRIED TO TURN THE WIPERS ON AND THEY WOULD NOT MOVE. WHY HASN'T GM ADDRESSED THIS ISSUE? I READ THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR 2013 MODELS AND IN CANADA THEY RECALLED MODELS UP TO 2016.

ON SUNDAY, AUGUST 18, 2019, ABOUT 7:30 AM WHILE DRIVING ON A 3 LANE HIGHWAY GOING ABOUT 55 MPH DURING A HEAVY RAIN DOWNPOUR, MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS COMPLETELY STOPPED WORKING. THEY SUDDENLY STOPPED MOVING WHILE IN MOTION, ONE EXTENDING OFF THE WINDSHIELD, THE OTHER STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WINDSHIELD. I INSTANTLY HAD ZERO VISIBILITY AND WAS IN DANGER OF CRASHING. THERE WERE MANY OTHER VEHICLES DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. I WAS TERRIFIED BUT SOMEHOW MANAGED TO MANEUVER MY VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD BY ROLLING DOWN MY WINDOW AND STICKING MY HEAD OUT TO SEE JUST ENOUGH TO PULL OVER SAFELY. MY ORDEAL WAS NOT OVER BECAUSE THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY WAS NOT THAT WIDE AND DUE TO THE NATURE OF MY JOB, I WAS FULLY AWARE THAT IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TO BE ON THE SIDE OF A HIGHWAY, ESPECIALLY DURING BAD WEATHER, BECAUSE OTHER DRIVERS MIGHT NOT SEE YOU AND COMPLETELY CRASH INTO YOU GOING FULL SPEED, THUS MY LIFE WAS IN SERIOUS DANGER. I FRANTICALLY LOCATED AND CALLED FOR ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE WHILE WATCHING TRAFFIC ANXIOUSLY IN MY REAR VIEW MIRROR. I WAS IN COMPLETE PANIC MODE AND COULD BARELY FOCUS. I DECIDED THAT IT WAS TOO DANGEROUS TO WAIT THERE FOR EMERGENCY HELP SO I GOT OUT OF MY CAR AND MANUALLY WIPED THE WINDSHIELD CLEAR AND BEGAN DRIVING ON THE SHOULDER SLOWLY TO THE NEAREST EXIT WHICH WAS ABOUT 3/4 MILE AWAY. I MADE IT OFF OF THE HIGHWAY AND DROVE CAUTIOUSLY UNTIL I MADE IT HOME. MY ORDEAL WAS TRAUMATIZING. WHAT MADE THIS ENTIRE NIGHTMARE WORSE IS THAT AFTER GOING ONLINE TO TRY TO FIND OUT WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN THE CAUSE OF THE WIPER FAIL, I SAW THAT THIS EXACT SAME PROBLEM HAD HAPPENED TO MANY OTHER OWNERS OF THE SAME VEHICLE AND CHEVY HAS YET TO RECALL THE WIPERS. I HAD MY WIPERS FIXED BY A CHEVY DEALER IN HOMEWOOD IL., THE REPAIR MECHANIC HAD SEEN MY PROBLEM MANY TIMES. THIS IS AN OUTRAGE. DOES CHEVY CARE ABOUT THEIR CUSTOMERS LIVES?

NO WARNING ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND VEHICLE STALLING (P011 AND P016 CODES) TOOK TO AUTOMOTIVE REPAIR SHOP NEW ENGINE REFURBISHED $5000 NEW $10,000 UNFORTUNATELY NO FUNDS FOR EITHER JUST OVER 100,000 MILES AND STILL OWE $13,000 I UNDERSTAND THESE ARE THE SAME ISSUES THAT HAVE BEEN NOTED IN FIRST GENERATION VEHICLE. I NOW HAVE TO LOOK FOR A REPLACEMENT VEHICLE WHILE PAYING FOR ONE THAT DOES NOT WORK.

CAR IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD AND HAS CHEVY SERVICE DEPARTMENT CERTIFIED BAD TIMING BELT. CAR HAS VERIFIABLE ROUTINE MAINTENANCE UPKEPT. THIS IS LIKELY A MANUFACTURE'S DEFECT.

TIRE PRESSURE READINGS ON INSTRUMENT PANEL GIVE ALERT IN COLD WEATHER. EVEN WHEN TIRE PRESSURE IS MAINTAINED MANUALLY THERE IS ANXIETY ABOUT PUTTING TOO MUCH AIR INTO TIRES EVEN WHEN COLD. INSTRUMENT PANEL REGISTERS 26 - 29 PSI WHEN IN ACTUALLY THERE IS 35 PSI IN TIRES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX EQUIPPED WITH MICHELIN LATITUDE TOUR TIRES, SIZE: T225/65R17 (NA). WHILE THE CONTACT'S WIFE WAS DRIVING 60 MPH, SHE HEARD AN ABNORMAL POPPING NOISE COMING FROM THE REAR PASSENGER TIRE. AFTERWARDS, THE TIRE EXPLODED. THE CONTACT MANAGED TO VEER TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD AND REPLACED THE TIRE WITH A SPARE. THE TIRE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THERE WERE NO DAMAGES TO THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 57,410. THE TIRE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

I WAS DRIVING ABOUT AN HOUR AND A HALF AWAY IN DECEMBER IN INDIANA ON THE INTERSTATE GOING 70 MPH AND IT STARTED TO SNOW/RAIN. I TURNED MY WIPERS ON AND THEY STOPPED WORKING WITH THE WIPERS STILL IN MY VIEW. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND MOVE THEM TO SEE AND THE CAR WAS NOT DRIVABLE DUE TO THE WEATHER CONDITIONS. I HAD TO FIND A PARTS STORE THAT HAD THE WIPER BLADE TRANSMISSION LINKAGE AND SPENT $170 TO FIX IT. I FEEL LIKE THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD WHILE TRYING TO USE THE WIPERS IN THE WEATHER CONDITIONS BECAUSE THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO TO FIX IT RIGHT AWAY!

2015 EQUINOX, 103K MILES, PCV SYSTEM FROZE AND MAIN SEAL BLOW OUT. OIL LEAKED OUT VERY QUICKLY WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE, LOSS OF POWER AND A DANGEROUS SITUATION. BULLETIN 14882 DOES NOT COVER MY 2.4L ECOTEC ENGINE, AS IT ONLY COVERS 2010-14 MODEL YEARS. MY VEHICLE HAS THE SAME EXACT ISSUE AS THE RECALL IN THE BULLETIN, YET I AM STUCK WITH A $6K BILL. MY VEHICLE ALSO HAS THE ISSUE WHERE IT BURNS OIL. THE LOW ENGINE OIL PRESSURE LIGHT DID NOT COME ON UNTIL DAMAGE HAD ALREADY OCCURRED. BULLETIN 14882 NEEDS TO BE EXTENDED TO INCLUDE FURTHER MODEL YEARS. THIS WAS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION THAT HAS RESULTED IN A SIGNIFICANT FINANCIAL LOSS. GM IS MORE THAN AWARE OF THIS ISSUE.

THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS JUST STOPPED WORKING WHILE IT WAS RAINING HEAVY. ME AND MY DAUGHTER WAS IN THE CAR IN THE CITY OF RIVERDALE GOING DOWN HWY 85, IT WAS HORRIFIC. I HAD TO FOLLOW THE LIGHTS OF THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME TO FEEL MY WAY TO A SAFE PLACE TO STOP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH IN HEAVY RAIN CONDITIONS, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS FAILED TO OPERATE. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO MOVE ONTO THE ROAD SHOULDER AND PLACED RAIN-X ON THE WINDSHIELD. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO DRIVE HOME WHERE A FAMILY MEMBER REPLACED THE WINDSHIELD WIPER BUSHING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WINDSHIELD WIPER BUSHING WAS REPLACED TWICE. THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WERE REPAIRED. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY IN THE RAIN, MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS JUST CUT OFF AND WOULD NOT TURN BACK ON. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER IN A STORE, I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND LET IT SIT, THEN CRANKED IT BACK UP. THEY STILL WEREN'T WORKING. WE CHECKED THE FUSE AND MADE SURE THE CONNECTIONS WERE TIGHT.

AS I WAS DRIVING IN HEAVY RAIN MY WIPERS WENT BEYOND MY WINDSHIELD AND JUST STOPPED WORKING.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN A CITY STREET WHEN WIPERS JUST STOPPED WORKING. IT WAS RAING PRETTY HARD WHEN THEY STOPPED. I TRIED THE FUZE BUT THAT DIDNT WORK.

IN THE MIDDLE OF A STORM WHILE HAVING MY WIPERS ON HIGH THEY JUST STOPPED WORKING. I PUT MY CAR IN PARK TO LOAD MY 2015 CHEVY EQUINOX I GOT BACK IN PUT MY CAR IN DRIVE AND THE WIPERS WEREN'T MOVING ANY MORE. I COULD HEAR THE MOTOR NOISE BUT THEY WEREN'T MOVING.*DT

ENGINE SEIZED WHILE DRIVING AT 50 MPH CAUSING LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES AND LEAVING MY WIFE STRANDED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. SEEMS THAT THE PVC SYSTEM PLUGGED CAUSING REAR MAIN SEAL TO BLOW OUT AND LOOSE ALL THE OIL. GM HAS ISSUED A BULLETIN "14882" THAT COVERS 2010-2014 MODEL YEARS. OUR CHEVY EQUINOX IS A 2015, SO THE SAME ISSUE SEEMS TO FOLLOW LATER MODELS.

WATER IN FLOOR BOARD ON DRIVER SIDE! HAPPENED MORE THAN ONCE. THIS TIME IT'S BAD! HAD IT CHECKED OUT AT THE DEALER BUT, THEY COULDN'T FINE OUT WHAT WAS WRONG! LOOKED IT UP AND IT'S BEEN HAPPING TO QUITE A FEW OF THESE CARS FROM 2007 ON UP! IT'S BEEN A PROBLEM FOR AWHILE! CAN YOU FIX THE PROBLEM?

I WAS DRIVING ON INTERSTATE IN A CONSTRUCTION ZONE ON NOVEMBER 26, 2019 AT APPROXIMATELY 5:45PM. IT WAS DARK AND RAINING HARD WHEN MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS SUDDENLY STOPPED WORKING. IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT SEE AND, IN MY OPINION, VERY DANGEROUS. I PUT ON MY HAZARD LIGHTS AND DROVE VERY SLOWLY APPROXIMATELY 6 MILES OF INTESTATE AND 20 MILES ON A 2 LANE ROAD.

WINDSHIELD WIPER MECHANISM BROKE TWICE. REPLACED TWICE.

DRIVING SOUTH ON I5 IN EARLY MORNING (DARK) IN MODERATE RAINFALL MY WIPERS STOPPED WORKING. HAD TROUBLE SEEING. I FOLLOWED THE TAIL LIGHTS IN FRONT OF ME UNTIL I COULD GET TO A TURNOFF. I TOOK THE CAR TO A DEALER. THE MECHANIC SAID THE WIPER ARM TRANSMISSION LINK POPPED OFF DUE TO A FAILED JOINT. I WAS BILLED FOR PART # 8424187 MODULE 10.150. THE TOTAL CAME TO $485.96.

THE PCV FROZE AND BLEW THE REAR MAIN SEAL. THE VEHICLE WAS WARMING UP IN MY DRIVEWAY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHILE DRIVING, A RATTLING NOISE OCCURRED AND THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SHAKE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSFER CASE DIFFERENTIAL FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE CONTACT CALLED RYDELL CHEVROLET (1325 E SAN MARNAN DR, WATERLOO, IA 50702, (319) 433-4871) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE TRANSFER CASE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 140,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ENTIRE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND ELECTRICAL SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONED. THE BACKUP CAMERA, SPEEDOMETER, ODOMETER, FUEL GAUGE, AND CRUISE CONTROL FAILED TO WORK. THE FAILURES WERE ESPECIALLY PROBLEMATIC DURING NIGHTTIME DRIVING. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO TWO DEALERS. ON OF THE DEALERS, GRAFF CHEVROLET OKEMOS (1748 W GRAND RIVER AVE, OKEMOS, MI 48864), STATED THAT THE PARTS NEEDED FOR THE REPAIR WERE BACKORDERED AND WERE NOT CURRENTLY BEING MANUFACTURER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED, REPEATED WHAT THE DEALER STATED, AND PROVIDED A CASE NUMBER. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THEY WOULD SPEAK WITH THE DEALER AND INFORMED THE CONTACT TO CALL BACK IN A WEEK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 56,826.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS UNDERGOING AN OIL CHANGE BY AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD NO OIL. THE MECHANIC MENTIONED AN UNKNOWN TSB ISSUED BY THE MANUFACTURER FOR THE SAME FAILURE. THE CONTACT RECEIVED OIL CHANGES FROM RK CHEVROLET (502 N DELSEA DR, VINELAND, NJ 08360, (856) 469-4061) FOR THE PAST FOUR YEARS. THE DEALER STATED THAT THEY WERE AWARE OF THE TSB, BUT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR THE EXTENDED WARRANTY OFFERED BY THE TSB. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS CURRENTLY OPERATING AT HALF POWER, AND THERE WERE PINGING AND RATTLING SOUNDS. THE VEHICLE WAS BURNING AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE SAME DEALER ON FEBRUARY 6, 2019 AND THE FAILURE WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE BEEN REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL FOR THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 90,000. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN.

WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING DURING A RAIN STORM. PROBLEM WAS A BROKEN WIPER TRANSMISSION LINKAGE SOCKET. DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE WIPER MOTOR/TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AND ADVISED THAT I HAD SEEN A NUMBER OF OTHER COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME ISSUE BUT I WAS ADVISED NO RECALL OR SERVICE BULLETIN HAD BEEN ISSUED. FOR THIS REASON, THE REPAIR WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THEY NOTED THAT IF A RECALL OR BULLETIN IS ISSUED IN THE FUTURE, THE CLAIM COULD BE SUBMITTED FOR REIMBURSEMENT. HOW MANY MORE COMPLAINTS ARE NEEDED FOR THE PROBLEM TO BE RECOGNIZED AND CORRECTED BY GM?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH IN INCLEMENT WEATHER, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS BECAME INOPERABLE. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO EXIT THE ROADWAY SAFELY. STERNBERG CHEVROLET (6600 DIXIE HWY, LOUISVILLE, KY 40258, (502) 442-0752) WAS CONTACTED AND AN APPOINTMENT WAS SCHEDULED TO HAVE THE VEHICLE DIAGNOSED, WHICH WAS STILL PENDING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000.

ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS DURING THE PAST FEW MONTHS, THE WINDSHIELD ON MY 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX BECAME EXTREMELY FOGGED UP, SIGNIFICANTLY DECREASING VISIBILITY. THE VEHICLE WAS NEVER ABLE TO DEFROST OR CLEAR THE CONDENSATION UP, NO MATTER WHAT SELECTION WAS MADE ON THE HEAT/AIR CONDITIONING SETTING(S). APPROXIMATELY ONE WEEK AGO, WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT WITH AN OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE OF APPROXIMATELY 45 DEGREES F, THE WINDSHIELD AGAIN BECAME EXTREMELY FOGGED UP. THIS TIME, THE WINDSHIELD CONDENSATION/FOG HAD BECOME SO SEVERE THAT I WAS UNABLE TO SEE OUT OF THE WINDSHIELD AND OTHER PASSENGER WINDOWS AT ALL AND WAS FORCED TO PULL THE VEHICLE OVER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT SAFE TO CONTINUE DRIVING WITH NO VISIBILITY. THANKFULLY, I WAS NOT ON THE HIGHWAY AT THIS POINT AND WAS ABLE TO EFFECTIVELY PULL OFF THE ROADWAY WITHOUT INCIDENT. THE VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT TO THE DEALERSHIP THE NEXT DAY AND DIAGNOSED WITH A 'HEATER CORE FAILURE.' THE FAILURE OF THE HEATER CORE IS WHAT CAUSES THE EXTREME CONDENSATION BUILD UP AND FOGGING OF THE INTERIOR WINDSHIELD AND WINDOWS. THE VEHICLE IS ONLY A 2015 AND I AM EXTREMELY CONCERNED WITH THE PREMATURE FAILURE(S) OF AN INTEGRAL COMPONENT OF THE VEHICLE, ESPECIALLY ONE THAT AFFECTS VISIBILITY AND COMPROMISES SAFETY TO MYSELF, MY PASSENGERS, AND OTHERS ON THE ROADWAY.

WHILE DRIVING AT 65 MPH ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY IN A BAD RAIN STORM MY WIPERS STOPPED WORKING. IT WAS VERY ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE AND TRY TO GET TWO LANES OVER TO THE SHOULDER. MY HUSBAND AND I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. THERE WAS NO SIGN THEY WERE GOING TO FAIL.

IT SEEMS THAT THE BATTERY DISCONNECTS AT RANDOM TIMES. THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL TIMES THAT I GO TO START THE VEHICLE AND THE SUV IS COMPLETELY DEAD. I ALREADY CHANGED THE BATTERY AND TOOK IT TO A LOCAL SHOP BUT IT STILL HAPPENS. I FIGURED OUT THAT IF I POP THE HOOD AND WIGGLE THE BATTERY AND CABLES IT'LL START AND GO BACK TO NORMAL. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE SUV WON'T HAVE ANY LIGHTS OR EVEN LOCK DOORS. AND WHEN IT DOES COME BACK IT'LL GO TO FACTORY TIME AND DATE. JUST RECENTLY IT HAPPENED AS I WAS COMING TO A STOP AT A GAS STATION. I'M NOT SURE IF I WAS STOPPED OR DOING LIKE 1 OR 2 MPH. BUT IT WAS DEAD EVEN BEFORE I PUT IT INTO PARK. THE DATE THIS HAPPENED IS AN ESTIMATE. NOT EXACT.

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK.WHILE MAKING A TURN MY CAR WAS UNABLE TO BRAKE. I SLAMMED INTO A TELEPHONE POLE WHICH MY AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. MY CAR HIT THE POLE A HARD RIGHT. MY HEAD AND NECK WAS PUSH FORWARD EXTREMELY FAST CAUSING TRAUMA.

THE IGNITION KEY WAS ABLE TO BE REMOVED FROM THE IGNITION WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS NOT IN THE PARK POSITION (VEHICLE WAS IN DRIVE POSITION). IN WHICH CAUSED A ROLLAWAY INCIDENT WITH THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AND BELIVED TO BE IN PARK.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AROUND 70 MPH DURING A RAIN STORM, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS ABRUPTLY STOPPED. THIS CAUSED SEVERE DIFFICULTY SEEING AND A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. I TRIED TO RESTART THE WIPERS AND THE VEHICLE, NEITHER WORKED. THE WIPERS NO LONGER WORKED AT ALL. YOU COULD HEAR THE MOTOR RUNNING, BUT THE WIPERS DID NOT RUN. I HAD TO SLOWLY DRIVE ALONG THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY WITH HAZARDS ON TO FIND AN EXIT. I HAD TO CALL SOMEONE TO PICK ME UP, AS THE VEHICLE COULD NO LONGER DRIVE IN THE RAIN.

WHILE DRIVING ON A BUSY CITY STREET IN AFTERNOON THUNDERSTORM MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS COMPLETELY STOPPED WORKING. NO FOREWARNING. THEY WERE WORKING JUST FINE EARLIER IN THE DAY. I WAS FORTUNATE TO VERY CAREFULLY NAVIGATE MY VEHICLE, WITH VERY LIMITED VISIBILITY, TO THE NEAREST BUSINESS TO PARK AND WAIT OUT THE STORM. LUCKILY MY PASSENGERS AND I MADE IT OFF THE ROAD SAFELY IN HEAVY CITY TRAFFIC AND THIS INCIDENT DIDN'T HAPPEN WHILE ON THE INTERSTATE JUST 30 MINS PRIOR.

OCT 7TH 2019 WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY 65MPH DURING MAJOR NEW ENGLAND RAIN STORM THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING. I WAS UNABLE TO SEE ANYTHING, I QUICKLY ROLLED DOWN THE WINDOW, STUCK MY HEAD OUT AND WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF THE HIGHWAY ONTO THE EXIT RAMP. IF NOT FOR MY QUICK THINKING AND THE EXIT RAMP BEING SO CLOSE WE COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. I HAD MY CHILD IN THE FRONT SEAT WHO WAS COMPLETELY TRAUMATIZED BY THIS EXPERIENCE. AFTER READING ONLINE THE AMOUNT OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SAFETY ISSUE, WHY HASN'T GM RECALLED THESE VEHICLES! WHAT ARE THEY WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO GET INJURED OR KILLED.THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS DEFECT THAT NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED BY GM.

WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR QUIT WORKING AS I WAS DRIVING IN HEAVY RAIN DOWN THE HIGHWAY. DANGEROUS.

I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET RETURNING HOME FROM PICKING UP MY CHILD AND HIS FRIEND. I TURNED IN MY WINSHIELD WIPERS DUE TO A SERVERE HEAVY RAINSTORM IN MY AREA. AFTER CUTTING THE WIPERS ON THEY STARTED WIPING AT A VERY FAST PACE AND JUST ABRUPTLY STOPPED IN THE UP POSITION. I TRIED CUTTING THEM OFF AND BACK ON BUT THE WIPERS DID NOT MOVE. I HAD TO PULL OVER BECAUSE I COULD NO LONGER SEE. UPON MAKING IT HOME I PULLED INTO THE GARAGE AND ATTEMPTED TO TURN THE WIPERS ON AGAIN. I COULD HEAR THE MOTOR FOR THE WIPERS HOWEVER THEY WOULD NOT MOVE. I BELIEVE THE WINSHIELD WIPER TRANSMISSION MALFUNCTIONED. AFTER GOOGLING THE DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM I WAS HAVING I REALIZED THAT WAS THE PART I NEEDED. I CALLED A CHEVY DEALERSHIP IN HOMEWOOD, IL AND AN EMPLOYEE STATED THAT THEY REPAIR THIS PART OFTEN IN CHEVY VEHICLES. THIS IS A DANGEROUS MALFUNCTION TO HAVE ON A VEHICLE. I HOPE A RECALL IS ISSUED SOON BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR KILLED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH IN INCLEMENT WEATHER, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS BECAME INOPERABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR WAS OPERABLE; HOWEVER, THE BUSHINGS ON THE WIPER MOTOR ARMS FAILED AND THE WINDSHIELD MOTOR SEIZED IN POSITION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO WHEELER CHEVROLET BUICK (11401 N STRAITS HWY, CHEBOYGAN, MI 49721, (231) 333-5022) TO BE REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 95551109568. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 74,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX INTERMITTENTLY SPUTTERED AND STALLED AT STOP SIGNS AND STOPLIGHTS. AFTER STALLING NEED TO PUT CAR N 'PARK' BEFORE RESTARTING. CAR STALLED SEVERAL TIMES AFTER INITIAL STALL. CAR ALSO SPUTTERED AND ALMOST DIED SEVERAL TIMES DURING FREEWAY RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC WHEN I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE GAS. I HAD TO PUT THE CAR IN 'NEUTRAL' AND REVVED THE ENGINE TO ENSURE THE ENGINE KEPT RUNNING. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A SERIOUS ISSUE SHOULD I BEEN FORCED TO STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. MECHANIC REPLACED THE VVT INTAKE AND EXHAUST SOLENOIDS.

OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE. CHEVROLET'S DEFINITION OF OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE IS USING A QUART (OR MORE) WITHIN 2000 MILES (OR LESS) . OTHER COMPANIES WOULD DEFINE THIS AS AN ISSUE BUT CHEVROLET DOES NOT SEE THIS AS AN ISSUE. MY CAR HAS SHUT OFF WHILE IN MOTION ON A MAIN ROAD 7-9 TIMES. IT HAS ALSO OCCURRED IN PARKING LOTS. I HAVE TO ATTEMPT MULTIPLE TIMES FOR MY CAR TO STAY ON TO GET OFF OF THE ROADWAY. IT HAPPENS IN FORWARD AND REVERSE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHEN THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO START THE VEHICLE WITH THE KEY IN THE IGNITION, IT SEIZED. ANOTHER MOTORIST HELPED JUMPSTART THE VEHICLE AND IT RESUMED NORMAL OPERATION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO ORDERED A NEW BATTERY; HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED BY AAA TO AUTONATION CHEVROLET NORTH RICHLAND HILLS (7769 BOULEVARD 26, NORTH RICHLAND HILLS, TX 76180, (817) 264-7753) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BATTERY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE FAILURE RECURRED MULTIPLE TIMES AND THE BATTERY HAD TO BE REPLACED FOUR TIMES WITHIN FOUR YEARS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 25,000.

AUGUST 2019 DURING HURRICANE DORIAN WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING IN THE MIDDLE OF THREE LANE TRAFFIC I WAS UNABLE TO SEE FOR THREE BLOCKS THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED A CASTATROPHIC LIFE-THREATENING EMERGENCY, I COULDN'T CHANGE LANES I COULDN'T GET OUT OF THE MIDDLE LANE MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS TOTALLY STOPPED WORKING. MY FAMILY WAS TRAUMATIZED. BECAUSE OF THE DOWNPOUR OF RAIN WE WERE TRAVELING AT A SLOW SPEED BUT IF IT WOULD HAVE BEEN AND BECAUSE A LOT OF PEOPLE WERE TRYING TO MANEUVER THROUGH THE STORM THERE WAS LIKE A LOT OF UNUSUAL TRAFFIC ON THE ROAD IF THERE WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN BACKUPS IN TRAFFIC IT COULD HAVE BEEN A DEVASTATING ACCIDENT. I HAVE GOOGLED THIS MALFUNCTION AND IT SEEMS LIKE EVEN AT THE PEOPLE GOT THE PROBLEM REPAIRED THEIR WINDSHIELD WIPERS HAVE GONE OUT AGAIN I BEG YOU TO RECALL THESE WINDSHIELD WIPERS BEFORE THERE ARE MULTIPLE DEATHS IF THERE HAVEN'T ALREADY BEEN HOMICIDES

FOR A FEW DAYS MY CAR WAS RUNNING ROUGH THEN WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD ABOUT 45 MPH IT SUDDENLY LOST POWER AND REALLY BEGAN RUNNING ROUGH. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS, NOTHING. I PULLED OVER AND TURNED THE CAR OFF AND THEN TURNED IT BACK ON. IT STILL WAS RUNNING ROUGH. AT THIS POINT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND A MESSAGE POPPED SAYING THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING AT REDUCED POWER. I DROVE 1/2 MILE AT ~ 15 MPH TO DROP MY DAUGHTER AT SCHOOL. AT THAT POINT THE CAR TOTALLY DIED. WHEN IT WAS TAKEN TO THE SHOP IT WAS FOUND TO HAVE NO OIL. THERE WAS NO INDICATION THAT MY CAR WAS OUT OF OIL OR RUNNING LOW ON OIL AND IT PROBABLY HAD ABOUT 3500 MILES SINCE LAST OIL CHANGE. MY ENGINE WAS RUINED AND NOW I HAVE TO PURCHASE ANOTHER MOTOR! NOT HAPPY AS THE CAR HAD ABOUT ~100K MILES AND THAT'S LOW TO ME. AND APPARENTLY THERE ARE ISSUES WITH THESE ENGINES SO I AM PROBABLY JUST PAYING TO PUT ANOTHER BAD ENGINE IN!

WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY DURING A RAIN STORM NEARLY RESULTING IN AN ACCIDENT. RESEARCH SHOWS THIS IS A FREQUENT SAFETY ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE YEARS 2010-2016 THOUGH THE 2013 MODEL IS THE ONLY ONE WITH A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE. THE BALL JOINT HAS GIVEN WAY WHILE IN USE RESULTING IN BOTH WIPERS TO BE INOPERABLE.

I'VE HAD THREE INCIDENTS WHERE MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS HAVE STOPPED WORKING. THE MOTOR WORKS FINE YOU CAN HEAR IT WHEN YOU TURN ON WIPERS BUT IT'S THE PLASTIC BUSHELS ON THE WINDSHIELD LINKAGE THAT KEEP COMING OFF CAUSING MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS TO EITHER NOT COME UP AT ALL, MAKE AWFUL NOISE AND COME UP SLIGHTLY, AND STOP IN MID WIPE AND FALL OFF TO THE SIDE OF WINDSHIELD. I'VE HAD THIS HAPPEN THREE TIMES AND IF YOU LOOK ONLINE YOUTUBE HAS MANY VIDEOS OF PEOPLE FIXING THERE EQUINOX WHERE IT HAS HAPPENED HE FIRST TIME MY UNCLE FIXED IT THE SECOND TIME I TOOK IT TO A CAR REPAIR SHOP AND THE THIRD TIME THAT HAPPENED TUESDAY AUGUST 20,2019 I TOOK TO A CAR REPAIR SHOP AND THEY ARE LOOKING TO SEE OUR OPTIONS AND WHAT TO DO NEXT.

WINDSHIELD WIPERS FAILED WORKING DURING A HEAVY DOWNPOUR WHILE TRAVELING APPROX 50 MPH. LOST ALL VISIBILITY HAD TO PULL OVER. TOOK CAR TO DEALERSHIP SAID THERE IS NO RECALL ON MY VIN #. DID RESEARCH SAME YEAR MAKE AND MODEL RECALLED IN CANADA FOR THIS ISSUE. OTHER YEARS HAVE ALSO BEEN RECALLED THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED.

SPEEDOMETER RANDOMLY DROPS TO ZERO WHILE DRIVING 60- 70MPH DOWN HIGHWAY AND AT LOWER SPEEDS AS WELL SUCH AS 30MPH. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND THEN STABILITY TRACKER COMES ON.THERMOMETER FOR ENGINE DROPS TO COLD AT SAME TIME AND CAR BEGINS JOLTING/JERKING. NEEDLES ON DASH BOARD GO HAY WIRE AND MOVE BACK AND FORTH. AFTER A FEW HOURS CHECK ENGINE LIGHT GOES OFF AND THEN DEALERSHIP CAN'T FIND FIX BECAUSE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS INTERMITTENT. HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH THIS ISSUE ON AND OFF FOR 3 YEARS. CHEVY ON STAR DIAGNOSTICS PROVIDES ERROR CODES THAT POINT TO TCM, ECM AND ABS-BREAKING AND STABILITY SYSTEM. CHEVY DEALERS ARE NEVER ABLE TO COME TO RESOLUTION AND PIN DOWN WHAT IS WRONG. ISSUE KEEPS HAPPENING. I HAVE MORE INVOICES/CHEVY ONSTAR DIAGNOSTIC DOCUMENTS SHOWING ISSUE AND ERROR CODES BUT I WAS UNABLE TO UPLOAD THEM ALL AS I CAN ONLY UPLOAD 5MB. AM ABLE TO PROVIDE THAT ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTATION IF NEED BE.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN A TORRENTIAL DOWNPOUR OCCURRED. I TURNED ON THE WIPERS AND THEY FLEW TO THE LEFT THEN STOPPED WORKING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WINDSHIELD. I WAS ALL THE WAY OVER IN THE LEFT LANE, COULD NOT SEE ANYTHING. HAD TO OPEN THE PASSENGER WINDOW AND TRY TO GET OVER TO THE SHOULDER. I FINALLY MADE IT ACROSS 4 LANES OF HEAVY TRAFFIC THAT WAS GOING 65+ AND STOPPED ON THE SHOULDER. IT WAS A MIRACLE WE WERE NOT HIT TRYING TO GET OVER AND ALSO DURING THE HOUR WE HAD TO WAIT FOR THE RAIN TO STOP BEFORE HEADING HOME. WE HAD TO WAIT 2 DAYS BEFORE THE DEALERS SERVICE DEPARTMENT COULD LOOK AT OUR CAR. IT TURNED OUT THE WIPER TRANSMISSION SEPARATED. THEY REPLACED THE WIPER TRANSMISSION AND THAT SEEMS TO HAVE FIXED THE ISSUE. COST OF REPAIR WAS $365.50. I AM VERY GRATEFUL TO BE ALIVE!

THE VEHICLE STALLS UPON GOING A SLOW RATE OF SPEED AS WHEN BACKING OUT OF A DRIVEWAY, DRIVING IN A PARKING LOT, OR STOPPING AND TRYING TO PERFORM A TURN ON A CITY STREET. IT CAN ALSO STALL ON THE INTERSTATE IF YOU IDLE WHILE SLOWED DUE TO TRAFFIC STOPS. YOU HAVE TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND RESTART THE VEHICLE. IT STALLS ABOUT 3-4 TIMES A TRIP. SEVERAL TIMES A DAY. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON.

CONSUMING OIL SUPER FAST

WAS DRIVING ON US 23 IN A DOWN POUR WITH WIPERS AT FULL SPEED WHEN WIPERS STOPPED AND WENT BEYOND DRIVER SIDE WINDSHIELD. REACHED OUT WINDOWT TO PUSH WIPER BACK TO MOVE PASSENGER WIPER OUT OF DRIVER SIGHT LINE. WAS VERY SCARY.

2015 CHEVY EQUINOX WITH 94,000 MILES AND THE WIPER TRANSMISSION FAILED. I WAS DRIVING IN DOWN POURING RAIN ON THE INTERSTATE AND THE WIPERS JUST QUIT WORKING. I HAD TO VERY QUICKLY AND CAREFULLY NAVIGATE TO THE SHOULDER AND SIT TIL IT QUIT RAINING BEFORE I COULD GET ON MY WAY. I TOOK IT TO THE CHEVROLET DEALER AND THEY REPLACED THE WIPER TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY AND MOTOR. THEY SAID THIS HAS BEEN RECALLED ON THE 2013 EQUINOX BUT NOT THE 2015.

ON JULY 21, 2019 AT APPROXIMATELY 5:15 PM I WAS DRIVING MY TRUCK IT WAS RAINING HARD DO HARD THAT I COULD BARELY SEE MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS WERE ON AND WORKING ALL OF A SUDDEN THEY STOPPED WORKING AND FLIPPED ALL THE WAY OVER TO THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW AND STOPPED WORKING NO MOVEMENT WHAT SO EVER. IT WAS VERY SCARY BECAUSE TRAFFIC WAS MOVING PRETTY FAST AND I COULDN'T SEE. I HAD TO LET MY WINDOW DOWN IN ORDER TO SEE TO GET TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROAD TO PULL OVER. I HAD TO WAIT UNTIL IT STOPPED RAINING FOR ABOUT 45 MINUTES SO I COULD RETURN HOME SAFELY. I WAS ON DRIVING ON HWY 231 NORTH, IN WETUMPKA ALABAMA.

WHEN DRIVING I COULD FEEL IT JUMP AS IT WAS NOT GETTING GAS.. NOW IT STALLS WHEN I PUT ON THE GAS... CREATING A SAFETY HAZARD AS I DO TRAVEL HIGHWAY TO GET TO WORK..

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHILE THE CONTACT'S DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING 60-65 MPH, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. ALSO, THE ENGINE POWER REDUCED MESSAGE WAS DISPLAYED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO STATED THAT THE TIMING CHAIN SKIPPED A TOOTH AND THE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT CALLED PARKS MOTORS (11987 US-54, AUGUSTA, KS 67010, (316) 775-6365), BUT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 9-5381264436. THE MANUFACTURER ALSO STATED THAT THE WARRANTY WAS EXPIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 118,000. *BF

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN OPENING THE REAR HATCH, THE DOOR WOULD RAPIDLY OPEN AND THEN ERRONEOUSLY CLOSE. THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT THE SAFETY FEATURE DESIGNED TO DETECT A PERSON REACHING INTO THE REAR HATCH AREA WAS INOPERABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. BRITTAIN CHEVROLET (57 E. MARTIN ST, EAST PALESTINE, OH) AND THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 54,000.

TAKATA RECALL HIT CAR BROAD SIDE 7000+DAMAGE AIRBAG DIDN'T DEPLOY IT WAS IN MOTION IN TOWN ON JUNE 24 2019

VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION TRAVELING 65 MPH ON I-95 AT 10:00 PM AT NIGHT. IT WAS DURING A THUNDERSTORM WITH HEAVY RAIN AND LOW VISIBILITY WHEN THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS ABRUPTLY STOPPED IN THE UPRIGHT POSITION BLOCKING MY VISION OF THE HIGHWAY. WIPERS WERE ON THE LOWEST NOTCH OF THE MEDIUM SETTING. THIS WAS VERY SCARY AND I HAD TO MOVE OVER THREE LANES AND LUCKILY WAS RIGHT NEAR A REST STOP AND WAS ABLE TO SAFELY STOP. I HAD TO MANUAL PUSH THE WIPERS DOWN. I COULD HEAR THE MOTOR BUT THE WIPERS DID NOT MOVE. I TURNED THE CAR ON AND OFF, STILL DID NOT WORK. I HAD TO WAIT UNTIL THE RAIN STOPPED. 70,000 MILES. THIS WAS A VERY SCARY EXPERIENCE AND THIS IS CLEARLY AN ISSUE. I HOPE THIS IS ADDRESSED TO PROTECT OTHERS. THIS COULD CAUSE MAJOR ACCIDENTS AND RISK LIVES. I FEEL VERY LUCKY.

OUR 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX WITH 62,900 MILES STALLED MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE IN REVERSE BACKING OUT OF OUR DRIVEWAY. NO ENGINE LIGHT SHOWING. WHILE STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT ON A MAJOR STREET AND INTERSECTION, THE CAR STALLED A FEW TIMES. YOU HAVE TO GIVE IT GAS WHEN SHIFTING FROM PARK TO DRIVE TO AVOID STALLING. AFTER 1 DAY, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. IT WAS TIME FOR AN OIL CHANGE SO I HAD THEM CHECK THE CODE. IT CAME BACK AS BANK ONE CAMSHAFT SENSOR P0011. THE NEXT DAY, ALL WAS FINE AND NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. 2 DAYS LATER, MULTIPLE STALLS AT STOP LIGHTS AND IN PARKING LIGHTS WHEN THE CAR IS GOING SLOW, STARTING FROM A STOP AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME BACK ON.

WINDSHIELD WIPER LINKAGE FAILED DURING RAIN EVEN. 66,000 MILES.

WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AT 9:45 PM AND IT STARTED TO POUR HEAVILY. I TURNED MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS ON AND INITIALLY THEY WORKED FINE AND THEN SUDDENLY THEY STOPPED IN THE UPRIGHT POSITION. I HAD ZERO VISIBILITY AND HAD TO PULL OVER BENEATH AN OVERPASS UNTIL THE RAIN STOPPED. NEEDLESS TO SAY, THIS A SIGNIFICANT CONCERN AS THE RISK FOR ACCIDENT AND/OR INJURY THAT COULD COME ABOUT BECAUSE OF THIS IS HIGH. WHEN DOING AN ONLINE SEARCH ABOUT THIS, I FOUND NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME SITUATION. THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM AMONG EQUINOX VEHICLES. WHY HAS THIS NOT BEEN INVESTIGATED? WHY SHOULD CONSUMERS HAVE TO PAY FOR SOMETHING THAT CLEARLY BEGAN AT THE FACTORY.

I WAS DRIVING IN A RAIN STORM TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY FROM ARKANSAS TO MISSOURI WHEN MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS QUIT WORKING. LUCKILY THERE WAS NO ONE AROUND. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND WAIT FOR THE STORM TO PASS.

WINDSHIELD WIPERS IN RAIN STORM STOPPED WORKING WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY. REPL TRANSMISSION HAD TO BE REPLACED.

WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING SUDDENLY WHILE DRIVING ON A BUSY STREET IN THE POURING RAIN WHILE I WAS ON MY WAY TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST (USING TOO MUCH OIL.) I WAS TOLD THAT I NEEDED TO HAVE THE WIPER MODULE ASSEMBLY REPLACED ($246.78) I READ AN ARTICLE THAT THE SAME PROBLEM WAS HAPPENING WITH THE 2013 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. I HAVE GOTTEN NO RESPONSE FROM THE DEALERSHIP'S SERVICE DEPARTMENT.

DURING A TORRENTIAL DOWN POUR THE WIPERS WENT OUT.

WHILE I WAS DRIVING WHILE IT WAS RAINING, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING. THE WIPERS WERE STILL UP WHEN THEY STOPPED WORKING. WHEN I GOT HOME I CHECKED THE WIPER MOTOR AND TRANSMISSION TO FIND THE ISSUE. THE WINDSHIELD WIPER TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY HAS AN ARM THAT DISCONNECTS FROM THE REST OF THE ASSEMBLY.

THE VARIABLE VALVE TIMING SOLENOID IS CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO STALL OUT UNEXPECTEDLY.

I WAS DRIVING ON A BUSY HIGHWAY YESTERDAY AFTERNOON IN THE POURING RAIN AND MY FRONT WIPER BLADES SUDDENLY QUIT WORKING IN THE UPRIGHT POSITION. I COULD BARELY SEE TO PULL OVER BECAUSE IT WAS RAINING SO HARD. I TURNING THE WIPERS ON & OFF AND EVEN TRIED TURNING THE CAR OFF & BACK ON. THEY WOULD NOT RESUME WORKING. I WAITED OUT THE DOWNPOUR & SLOWLY MADE MY WAY HOME. TODAY I TOOK THE CAR TO A AUTOZONE AFTER SEVERAL MEN IN THE FAMILY TOLD ME IT WAS PROBABLY THE FUSE. THE EMPLOYEE CHECKED THE FUSES AND THEY WERE ALL GOOD. HE TOLD ME THAT I WAS THE 3RD PERSON IN THIS WEEK WITH THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM DRIVING THE SAME MAKE & MODEL EQUINOX. HE SAID I WOULD NEED TO TAKE IT TO A REPAIR SHOP BECAUSE IT WAS A PART DEFECT & TOLD ME WHERE TO LOOK UP THE OTHER COMPLAINTS JUST LIKE MINE. I HAVEN'T EVEN OWNED THIS SUV A YEAR AND CAN'T BELIEVE I'M GOING TO HAVE TO PAY OVER $300 TO GET IT FIXED WHEN THE PROBLEM IS A $5 PART. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON THIS. SOMEONE IS GOING TO EITHER GET KILLED DRIVING IN THE RAIN & THIS HAPPENS TO THEM.

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM THE GROCERY WITH MY DAUGHTER IN THE CAR. IT WAS DURING A HEAVY THUNDERSTORM AND MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS JUST STOPPED WORKING. VISIBILITY WAS 0 AT THAT POINT. WE WERE ON A STATE HIGHWAY GOING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH. I HAD TO TRY AND GET OFF THE ROAD TO THE RIGHT AND ALMOST HIT ANOTHER CAR. MY HUSBAND CHANGED THE FUSE AND THAT WAS NOT THE PROBLEM. THE WIPERS ARE CURRENTLY NOT WORKING.

CAMSHAFT POSITION ACTUATOR SOLENOID THIS HAPPENS AS SOON AS WE TURN THE CAR ON, PUT IT IN DRIVE AND BEGIN TO ACCELERATE. IT ALSO DOES IT WHEN WE ARE IDLING AT A STOP LIGHT OR STOP SIGN THE ENGINE WITH START TO JUMP AS IF IT'S NOT REACTING TO THE ACCELERATOR. WHILE WE ARE TRAVELING DOWN THE ROAD YOU CAN FEEL THE CAR JUMP AS IF IT'S TRYING TO STALL ITSELF. WE HAVE TO PUT THE CAR BACK IN PARK TO START IT SO IF THIS HAPPENS WHILE WE ARE TRAVELING AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED THEN THAT COULD CAUSE A MAJOR ACCIDENT OR SOMETHING MORE TRAJIC. OUR CAR STALLS WHEN IT'S AT IDLE OR WHEN WE ARE BEGINNING TO ACCELERATE. THIS POSES A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN FOR OUR FAMILY AS WE ARE GOING TO HAVE AN INFANT IN A MONTH. WE HAVE BEEN DOING RESEARCH ON THIS PARTICULAR PROBLEM AND IT SEEMS THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF OTHERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE AS US. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND RESOLVED.

WINDSHIELD WIPERS FAILED WHILE DRIVING IN A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM ON THE HIGHWAY, WAS TOLD AT THE DEALERSHIP THAT THIS FAILING IS A "COMMON ISSUE".

THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS FAILED DURING A RAINSTORM. THEY WERE ON THE SECOND TO HIGHEST SETTING, AND THEY JUST STOPPED WORKING IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY INTERSECTION. I HAD TO DRIVE VERY SLOWLY WITH MY HAZARD LIGHTS TO THE NEAREST PARKING AREA TO STOP, BECAUSE THERE WAS NO SHOULDER. THE PLASTIC BUSHING FAILED IN THE WIPER PART, AND CHEVROLET DOES NOT SELL JUST THAT PART. WE HAD TO REPLACE THE WHOLE WIPER ASSEMBLY.

MY DAUGHTER WHO IS LEARNING TO DRIVE TURNED ON THE WIPERS ON HIGH DUE TO RAINING AND THE WIPERS STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE. I THE PARENT CAREFULLY GOT HER TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD SO WE WOULD NOT GET IN A ACCIDENT. THIS IS A PROBLEM AND PEOPLE COULD BE KILLED. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE DURING A RAINSTORM. WIPERS WERE SET TO HIGH SPEED AND THEN STOPPED. ONE WAS IN THE UPRIGHT POSITION BLOCKING THE DRIVER VIEW AND THE OTHER WAS PARTIALLY HANGING OFF THE DRIVER SIDE WINDSHIELD. HAD TO CHANGE TWO LANES AND PULL OFF ROAD WITH ZERO VISIBILITY. IT WAS VERY SCARY. I WAS GLAD MY KIDS WEREN'T IN THE CAR. TURNED CAR OFF AND ON, DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. HAD TO WAIT ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD UNTIL THE RAIN STOPPED SO THAT I COULD DRIVE SAFELY. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID TRANSMISSION MODULE FAILED. $324 FIX. INTERESTINGLY THEY SAID IT WAS THE FOURTH EQUINOX THEY FIXED THIS MONTH WITH THIS PROBLEM. THIS NEEDS A RECALL.

WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING DURING RAIN STORM WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. WIPER BLADES STOPPED IN THE UPRIGHT POSITION PARTIALLY BLOCKING MY FIELD OF VISION. AFTER EXITING THE HIGHWAY AND PULLING OFF OF THE ROAD I WAS ABLE TO MANUALLY PUSH THE WIPERS DOWN. RESTARTING THE VEHICLE DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM.

DRIVING ON EXPRESSWAY AT HIGH SPEED IN HEAVY DOWNPOUR, WIPERS ON HIGH. WIPERS STOPPED WORKING STUCK IN MIDDLE OF WINDSHIELD. COULD NOT SEE ANYTHING. CHECKING INTERNET THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE, PLASTIC BEARING GOES.

FOR THE 2ND TIME MY WIPERS STOPPED WORKING. THE FIRST TIME IN JANUARY , IN A SNOWSTORM I TURNED ON MY WIPERS AND THEY FLEW TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD AND THEN STOPPED MOVING. IT WAS DETERMINED TO BE THE PLASTIC BUSHING HOLDING THE WIPER ARM ONTO THE WIPER TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY. IT JUST HAPPENED AGAIN DURING A RAINSTORM. BOTH INCIDENTS BUT ME AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND THERE'S NO REASON FOR A WEHICLE THIS NEW TO BE HAVING THESE SORTS OF ISSUES. I'VE READ ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE ONLINE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. PORTER CHERVOLET IN NEWARK, DE IS CHARGING ME ANOTHER $330 TO FIX IT AND IT'S A $4 PART THAT IS FAILING.

THE VEHICLE STARTED WITH A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. VEHICLE HAS 46000 MILES. WHEN COLD, ENGINE STALLS AT RANDOM STOPS AT A LIGHT, PARKING LOT, DRIVE THRU. VEHICLE MUST BE PUT INTO PARK AND RESTARTED CAUSING A SAFETY HAZARD AND DRIVING DANGER. CODE FLASHES P0011. DEALER STATED VEHICLE NEEDS NEW SENSOR. $300 REPAIR. THIS PROBLEM SHOULD BE A RECALL, AS A STALLING PROBLEM IS A SAFTETY HAZARD AND SHOULD BE REIMBURSED BY GM. CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT IN AN INTERSECTION BY BLOCKING TRAFFIC AT RANDOM.

THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING WHILE DRIVING DURING A RAIN STORM. THEY JUST FROZE HALFWAY THOUGH A SWEEP ACROSS THE WINDSHIELD. THEY STILL DO NOT WORK AFTER RESTARTING THE CAR.

I WAS DRIVING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE RAIN AND THE WIPER STOPPED WORKING. AND PURCHASED THE VEHICLE 2 MONTH BEFORE THE INCIDENT.

ON MAY 31, 2019 WHILE DRIVING IN A HEAVY RAIN STORM MY WIPERS SUDDENLY STOPPED IN THE UPMOST POSITION CAUSING ZERO VISABILITY ON A BUSY ROAD. AFTER GETTING SAFELY OFF THE ROAD I TRIED MOVING THE WIPER BLADES AND CAN HEAR CLUNKING WHEN THEY MOVE. THE LINKAGE HAS SEPARATED AT THE BUSHING. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS DEFECT THAT NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED BY GM.

WIPERS STOPPED FUNCTIONING WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET. THIS WAS DURING A HEAVY RAIN STORM AND VISIBILITY WAS COMPLETELY REDUCED TO NOTHING WHICH NEARLY RESULTED IN A COLLISION WITH A SEMI AND SEVERAL OTHER VEHICLES AS THERE WAS NO LANE TO PULL OVER IN.

I GOT A FAULTY CODE OF P0010 AND MY CAR WILL CUT OFF AT ANY GIVEN TIME WHEN IN DRIVE OR REVERSE. THERE WAS ANOTHER P CODE THAT PERTAINED TO THE BANK 1 SOLENOID AND TIMING CHAIN.

ON MAY 10 2019, WHILE ON VACATION, I WAS DRIVING THRU RAIN ON A 4 LANE HEAVILY TRAVELED ROAD. MY WIPERS SUDDENLY STOPPED WORKING IN THE UPMOST POSITION. I PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AS SAFELY AS I COULD, WHILE TURNING THE WIPERS ON AND OFF WITH NO RESPONSE. SINCE I WAS TRAVELING ALONE, I SAT AND COLLECTED MYSELF WHILE WAITING FOR THE RAIN TO SUBSIDE. WHEN I COULD I GOT OUT AND GAVE THE WIPERS A PUSH , HOPING THEY WERE "STUCK". THEY WENT DOWN AND STAYED . WHILE THE RAIN HAD SLOWED BUT NOT STOPPED, I MADE MY WAY SLOWLY ABOUT 5 MILES TO AN AUTO ZONE. THERE THEY CHECKED MY FUSES AND RELAY SWITCHES WHICH CHECKED OUT FINE. I WAS 4 HOURS AWAY FROM HOME AND WITHIN A LARGE WEATHER FRONT. THE AUTO ZONE PEOPLE ADVISED ME TO "RAINX" MY WINDSHIELD , WHICH I DID. I THEN DROVE 36 MILES TO THE NEAREST MOTEL IN WEST POINT MISS. I HAD TO STAY THE NIGHT AS THE WEATHER FRONT PASSED. AFTER WATCHING THE WEATHER RADAR, I LEFT WEST POINT MISS. AT 4:45 A.M. ON SATURDAY MORNING TO ATTEMPT TO MISS THE NEXT RAIN EVENT PREDICTED TO ARRIVE AROUND 9:30. THANKFULLY I ARRIVED HOME AT 9;00 A.M. DURING SPRINKLING RAIIN. THE AUTO ZONE EMPLOYEES HAD TOLD ME THERE WAS A RECALL ON 2015 CHEVY EQUINOX AND UPON ARRIVING HOME , I CALLED MY DEALERSHIP. MY VIN # WAS NOT ONE THAT WAS IN THE RECALL. BUT UPON RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE, I FOUND MY PROBLEM IS NOT AN ISOLATED INCIDENT AND MANY 2015 EQUINOX OWNERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS SAME EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION. AS ANY TIME THE WIPERS ARE NEEDED IN DRIVING, TO NOT BE ABLE TO RELY UPON THEM IS EXTREMELY FRIGHTENING AND DANGEROUS. I FEEL GM MOTORS IS TAKING THEIR CAR OWNERS SAFETY VERY LIGHTLY. SINCE I HAVE OWNED NUMEROUS VEHICLES SINCE 1972, AND THIS BEING THE FIRST GM PRODUCT I HAVE EVER OWNED. I WILL DEFINITELY HAVE TO TAKE GM'S LACK OF CONCERN INTO CONSIDERATION WHEN PURCHASING MY NEXT VEHICLE.

WHILE IN MOTION AND DRIVING DURING A RAIN STORM, I HAD THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS OPERATING WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THEY GET STUCK AND STOP WORKING. NOTHING COLLIDED WITH THEM, THEY SIMPLY STOPPED ON THEIR OWN. I COULD HEAR THE MOTOR THAT OPERATED THE WIPERS STILL FUNCTIONING, BUT THE WIPERS THEMSELVES WOULDN'T MOVE. I SEARCHED ON GOOGLE AND ON YOUTUBE AND THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE WITH THIS CAR MODEL AND THIS ISN'T THE FIRST TIME IT HAS HAPPENED TO THIS VEHICLE EITHER.

WHILE DRIVING ACROSS THE BAY BRIDGE, NEAR BALTIMORE, MD. MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING! I WAS DRIVING IN A RAIN STORM ON THE HIGHWAY, AND LUCKILY FOR ME, I WAS ABLE TO STICK MY ARM OUT THE DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW AND MANUALLY MOVE THE WIPER, BACK AND FORTH, ABOUT 6 INCHES. THE TRAFFIC WAS TERRIBLE AND IT TOOK ABOUT 5 MINUTES BEFORE I COULD WORK MY WAY TO AN EXIT. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A NAPA REPAIR SHOP AND THE OWNER TOLD ME THAT THE WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR ASSEMBLY WAS BROKEN. UP TO THIS POINT, I NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEMS WITH THE WIPERS. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE TO LEWES, DE. WHERE I WAS HEADED INITIALLY, USING MY LEFT ARM TO KEEP THE WINDSHIELD VISABLE. THE RAIN STOPPED ABOUT 40 MINUTES LATER. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO COASTAL TOWING, INC. TO GET IT FIXED THE NEXT DAY. THE OWNER THERE TOLD MY THE CHEVY HAS HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE DESIGN ON THE ASSEMBLY (2-PART) AND ARE RE-ENGINEERING A SINGLE PART ASSEMBLY. IT COST ME $350.98 TO GET IT FIXED! I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED, OR WORSE, KILLED SOMEONE ELSE. A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED ON THIS IMMEDIATELY!! (XXXX) 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).

IN MID-DECEMBER 2018, WE PURCHASED A USED ONE-OWNER 2015 CHEVY EQUINOX FROM A SMALL DEALERSHIP IN JENISON MICHIGAN. IT HAD ABOUT 113K MILES. LESS THAN 3 MONTHS LATER, IN EARLY MARCH OF 2019, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STARTED SMELLING OF GAS, RATTLING, STALLING. I IMMEDIATELY DROVE THE VEHICLE LESS A FEW MILES TO OUR LOCAL MECHANIC. AFTER THE MECHANIC EXAMINED THE VEHICLE, IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE ENGINE HAD FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED ALONG WITH A FUEL PUMP AT A COST OF ABOUT $6300. WE HAD PURCHASED A THIRD PARTY WARRANTY FROM PREFERRED WARRANTIES LLC THROUGH THE DEALERSHIP, SO WE THOUGHT WE WOULD BE COVERED. THE WARRANTY COMPANY REQUESTED A MORE THOROUGH EXAMINATION OF THE VEHICLE TO DETERMINE WHY THE ENGINE FAILED, AT A COST OF ABOUT $200, WHICH WOULD BE REIMBURSED TO US IF THE CLAIM WOULD BE APPROVED. THEIR ADJUSTER VISITED OUR MECHANIC, AND DETERMINED THAT SINCE THE ENGINE HAD LITTLE OIL, ABOUT ONE PINT, THE DAMAGE WOULD NOT BE ELIGIBLE FOR REIMBURSEMENT DUE TO THE VEHICLE BEING 'RUN ON LOW OIL.' WE WERE FLOORED, AS THE OIL HAD JUST BEEN CHANGED IN DECEMBER AT THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS NOT DUE FOR A CHANGE FOR ANOTHER 3K MILES. WE HAD PUT ABOUT 1K MILES ON IT SINCE PURCHASE. THERE WAS NEVER ANY INDICATION WHILE DRIVING THAT THERE WAS ANY PROBLEM WITH OIL CONSUMPTION: NO OIL LOW WARNING LIGHT, NO LEAKAGE UNDER THE VEHICLE, NO SMOKE, NO HESITATION IN DRIVING. WE DISCOVERED THAT CHEVY EQUINOXES WITH A 2.4L ENGINE BEGINNING IN 2010-2017 WERE EXPERIENCING EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION WITH MANY OF THE COMPLAINANTS STATING THERE WAS NO INDICATION THE VEHICLE WAS LOSING OIL. WE ARE ASKING FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE IN ANY WAY POSSIBLE TO RECOUP OUR LOSSES DUE TO THE NEGLIGENCE OF GM IN THEIR LACK OF INFORMING OF POTENTIAL ISSUES.

I WAS DRIVING IN HEAVY RAIN. FRONT WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING. ALMOST WRECKED . THIS HAPPENED ON 5/10/2019.

FRONT WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING WHILE DRIVING IN MIDDLE OF A RAIN STORM. PROBABLY THE WIPER TRANSMISSION OR LINK. ONLY 45,000 MILES ON THE CAR!!!

WHILE DRIVING IN DOWNPOUR, MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING. DRIVING 65 ON THE HIGHWAY IN A DOWNPOUR WITH NO WIPERS IS DANGEROUS AND I ALMOST CRASHED A FEW TIMES. THE MOTOR WAS FINE. IT WAS THE ASSEMBLY TRANSMISSION THAT KEPT POPPING OFF THE MOTOR THAT WAS THE PROBLEM. WHEN I HAD IT REPLACED, THE MECHANIC SHOWED ME, IT SLIPPED OFF SO EASILY, IT'S NUTS THAT IT LASTED THE 2 YEARS I'VE HAD THE CAR. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS IN CAN, WHY NOT IN THE US? I HAD MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR. WE COULD HAVE CRASHED AND SERIOUSLY BEEN INJURED OR KILLED. AGAIN, THE PART DID NOT BREAK. IT SIMPLE MALFUNCTIONED. IT'S A BALL/JOINT TYPE SYSTEM. MUST BE BETTER. DO BETTER CHEVY. I DEFEND YOUR BRAND DAILY. DON'T MAKE ME REGRET IT. JUST DO BETTER. THEN I CALL CHEVY ABOUT REPLACING - I'M TOLD IT WILL COST UPWARDS OF $600. TO REPLACE A FAULTY PART?! THIS CAN'T BE NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR. I HAD MY 4 YEAR OLD VW JETTA FOR 10 YEARS (14 YEAR OLD CAR) BEFORE I SOLD IT AND DIDN'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THE WIPER BLADES OR ASSEMBLY ONCE. I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW IT WAS A THING UNTIL THIS HAPPENED. VERY SAD. I HOPE YOU RECALL THIS PART ASAP. PEOPLE CAN SERIOUSLY BE HURT. TRY DRIVING IN A DOWNPOUR AND HAVE NO WIPERS, WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY WITH YOUR KIDS IN THE CAR.

TRAVELING ON THE INTERSTATE DURING A TORRENTIAL RAIN STORM. THE WIPERS WERE ON HIGH SPEED. THE WIPERS STARTED TO RUN ERRATICALLY. BOUNCED A FEW TIMES ON THE WINDSHIELD BREAKING IT. THEN THE WIPERS CAME TO REST HANGING OFF THE DRIVERS SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THIS FAILURE OF AN ESSENTIAL SAFETY SYSTEM SHOULD BE ANALYZED. DUE TO LUCK OR DRIVING SKILL THIS EQUIPMENT FAILURE RESULTED IN NO ACCIDENT OR INJURY. THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR AT MY COST.

DRIVING IN THE RAIN TODAY AND THE WIPERS JUST STOPPED WORKING AND WOULD NOT WORK. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND TURN OFF THE CAR TO SEE IF THEY WOULD COME BACK ON, BUT THEY WOULDN'T IT WAS RAINING REALLY HARD THIS COULD HAVE BEEN BAD

DURING A HEAVY RAIN, THE DRIVER SIDE WIPER SUDDENLY SWUNG PAST THE STOPPING POINT OF THE EDGE OF THE WINDSHIELD AND FORCED THE WIPER MOTOR ARMS AND BUSHINGS TO BREAK APART. THE FORCE DESTROYED THE BUSHINGS AND BEND THE MOTOR ARMS AS WELL AS STRIPPED THE THREADS BETWEEN THE WIPER MOTOR MOUNT AND THE WIPER ARM

CAR WAS PARKED, STARTED MOTOR, IT WAS RAINING, STARTED WIPERS, COULD HEAR THE WIPER MOTOR WORKING, WIPERS FAILED TO WORK, HAD TO TAKE IT TO A DEALER, COST TO REPAIR $283, SEEMS LIKE THIS IS STARTING TO BE REPORTED MORE, SHOULD BE RECALLED AS MENTIONED IN OTHER COMPLAINTS

THE WINDSHEILD MOTOR BROKE WHILE USING WIPERS. IT WAS REPAIRED USING A GMC PART AND THE WIPER MOTOR BROKE AGAIN. REPAIRED WERE THE BALL JOINTS IN THE WIPER MODULE I WAS DRIVING ON A INTERSTATE AT THE SPEED OF 70MPH WHEN THE WIPER MOTOR QUIT WORKING. I HAD TO PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND WAIT FOR THE RAID TO STOP. THE RAIN WAS HEAVY.

PURCHASED MY EQUINOX A YEAR AGO JUNE 2019. THE CAR WAS DOING FINE UP UNTIL ABOUT THE 2ND MONTH MARK I HAD IT. THE CAR BEGAN TO HAVE A VERY ROUGH AND JERKY STOP. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG. I GOT A OIL CHANGE AT LEAST EVERY MONTH DUE TO MY JOB AND HAVING TO DRIVE FREQUENTLY. IN MARCH I NOTICED MY CAR WAS IDLING ROUGH BUT DROVE OK. WHILE LEAVING WORK I WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT MY CAR STALLED AND THE ENGINE COMPLETELY TURNED OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. I TURNED IT OFF AND RESTARTED IT. COUPLE DAYS LATER IT DID IT TWICE AS I WAS BACKING OUT INTO TRAFFIC. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND MY CAR WAS COMPLETELY EMPTY OF OIL EVEN THOUGH I HAD JUST GOTTEN AN OIL CHANGE. I NOW HAVE TO DO OIL CONSUMPTION TEST EVERY 2K MILES. MY CAR STILL SHIFTS ROUGH AT ACCELERATION AND DURING DOWNSHIFTING. I HAD TO HAVE MY CAMSHAFT SOLENOID SENSOR REPLACED AS WELL. MY CAR HAS 55K MILES.

DRIVING ABOUT 40MPH IN HEAVY RAIN WITH WIPERS ON. IT THEN SOUNDED LIKE I HIT SOMETHING IN THE ROAD. I THEN LOOK TO NOTICE MY WIPERS WAS NO LONGER WORKING. I AM FINDING THIS IS HAPPENING WITH MANY 2015 CHEVY EQUINOX. WHY THE CUSTOMER HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE IT FIXED.

I WAS TRAVELLING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 60 MPH IN HEAVY RAIN WHEN MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS SUDDENLY SHUT DOWN AND WOULD NO LONGER WORK. I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY SLOW DOWN AND STOP, BUT THIS COULD HAVE ENDED MUCH DIFFERENTLY AS I WAS UNABLE TO SEE ANYTHING! THIS APPEARS TO BE THE SAME PROBLEM AS MANY HAVE REPORTED WITH THE BEARINGS ON THE WIPER TRANSMISSION CORRODING AND COMING APART.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH IN THE RAIN, THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO ADJUST THE WIPER SPEEDS. AFTER DOING SO, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS DETACHED FROM THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO WALKER CHEVROLET (3940 CAROTHERS PKWY, FRANKLIN, TN 37067, (615) 538-5184) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT NEW WINDSHIELD WIPERS NEEDED TO BE INSTALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,600.

MY WIFE AND DAUGHTER WERE DRIVING 70 MPH ON I-75 EXPRESSWAY ON THURSDAY EVENING (18APR19) DURING THE EVENING RUSH HOUR. IS WAS RAINING VERY HARD. THE VEHICLE WIPERS WERE SET ON HIGH-SPEED AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE WIPERS TRAVELED PAST THEIR NORMAL RANGE. THE WIPER SYSTEM FAILED IN THE EXTENDED TRAVEL POSITION. THE VEHICLE WAS IN THE LEFT MOST LANE OF THE EXPRESSWAY, SO MY WIFE DECIDED TO PULLED OVER TO THE LEFT SIDE OF THE ROAD. SHE HAD VERY LIMITED VISIBILITY BECAUSE OF THE HEAVY RAIN. SHE EVENTUALLY DECIDED TO EXIT THE EXPRESSWAY, WHICH REQUIRED HER TO CROSS (4) LANES OF HEAVY TRAFFIC BEFORE GETTING TO THE EXPRESSWAY EXIT. SHE PARKED THE VEHICLE IN THE CLOSEST PARKING LOT AND CALLED TO BE PICKED UP. MY WIFE AND DAUGHTER WERE REALLY LUCKY. LOSING ONE'S WIPERS DURING A THUNDERSTORM, WHILE DRIVING ON AN EXPRESSWAY, IS A REALLY DANGEROUS SITUATION TO BE IN. THANK GOODNESS NOTHING REALLY BAD HAPPENED.

ON 4-14-29 MY CAR STALLED WHILE DRIVING MULTIPLE TIMES. I HAD IT TAKEN IN TO A GM DEALERSHIP ON 4-15-19 AND THEY STATED THAT THERE WAS AN ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE THRU THE PISTON RINGS THAT HAS CAUSED EXTENSIVE DAMAGE. THERE PROPOSAL WAS EITHER A $3500 FIX OR A NEW ENGINE FOR $7000. I CALLED GM MYSELF (COMPAINT REFERENCE #[XXX]) AND THEY STATED THAT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND CURRENTLY UNDER INVESTIGATION BUT THAT MY VIN NUMBER WAS NOT INCLUDED ON THE RECALL LIST TO HAVE IT FIXED. THEY INFORMED ME TO SAVE RECIEPTS UPON PAYMENT FOR ANY REPAIRS I HAD DONE INCASE LATER IN THE FUTURE THERE WAS A RECALL. I WAS ADVISED TO DISCUSS MY ISSUE WITH THE CUSTOMER EXPERIECE MANAGER AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR SOME RESOLUTION. UPON DISCUSSION WITH THEM THEY STATED THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO AT THIS TIME AS THEY CAN ONLY FIX "KNOWN" ISSUE WITH PERMISSION FROM GM. THE DEALERSHIP ALSO ADVISED THAT IT WOULD BE RIDICULOUS FOR ME TO PAY $7000 TO HAVE ANOTHER ENGINE ADDED INTO MY VEHICLE AS THIS ENGINE WOULD MORE THAN LIKELY HAVE THE SAME ISSUES. THEY ADVISED ME TO RENT A CAR UNTIL I COULD DECIDE WHAT TO DO. THE RENTAL CAR WAS $55/DAY EQUALING TO $1650 A MONTH WHICH IS NOT FEASIBLE. I HAD TO PICK UP MY CAR TODAY FROM THE DEALERSHIP AS I NEED TRANSPORTATION TO AND FROM WORK AS I WORK 45MIN AWAY AND THERE IS NOT ANOTHER OPTION AT THIS TIME. I WAS GIVEN A PAPER WITH DETAILS OF WORK NEEDED FROM DEALERSHIP THAT I WILL SAVE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE. ON MY WAY HOME MY CAR STALLED MULTIPLE TIMES AGAIN. IT DOES INDEED TURN OVER AND RESTART ONCE DEAD, BUT THIS POSES A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD TO NOT ONLY MYSELF BUT OTHER DRIVERS ON THE STREET AS WELL. HOPE THERE IS SOME RESOLUTION TO THIS AS I HAVE READ MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ONLINE FROM OTHER DRIVERS WITH THE SAME CAR, SPECIFICALLY THE 2.4L ECOTECH ENGINE, WHICH IS WHAT I HAVE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TT

MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING COMPLETELY ON A RAINY DAY. IT BEGAN TO RAIN. I PULLED INTO A GAS STATION, STOPPED, AND TURNED MY WIPERS OFF. PREPARING TO LEAVE THE GAS STATION, I TURNED THE WIPERS BACK ON AFTER I TURNED THE CAR BACK ON WHILE I WAS STILL PARKED. THE WIPERS WENT UP ONE TIME, THEY STOPPED IN THE UPWARD POSITION, AND NEVER STARTED BACK WORKING. DURING THE TIME THAT I HAVE HAD THIS VEHICLE, THE WIPERS WOULD GO SO HARD THAT THE WIPERS WOULD GO PAST THE STOPPING POINT ON THE DRIVERS SIDE, AS IF THE DRIVER SIDE WIPER WAS GOING TO GO OFF THE SIDE. THE WIPER WOULD MAKE A NOISE LIKE IT HIT SOMETHING. THIS EVEN OCCURED ON THE LOWEST SETTING FOR MY WIPERS. THIS INCIDENT OCCURRED LAST NIGHT AND IT IS STILL RAINING WITH THUNDER SO I HAVE NO PICTURES.

2015 WELL MAINTAINED, ALWAYS GARAGED VEHICLE. WAS DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AT 65 MPH WHEN SUNROOF SHATTERED. NO DAMAGE TO MY CAR EVER. SUNROOF SHATTERED OUT OF NO WHERE.

MY WIPERS STOPPED WORKING, GETTING STUCK ALL THE WAY TO THE LEFT SIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD WHILE DRIVING IN THE HIGHWAY, IN THE MIDDLE OF A RAIN STORM. IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO TRY TO GET TO THE SHOULDER ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE BEING THAT I WAS ON THE LEFT LANE. THANKFULLY, I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER SAFELY.

TAKATA RECALL BOTH FRONT WINDSHIELD WIPERS SUDDENLY QUIT WORKING WHILE DRIVING IN THE RAIN AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS OF UP TO 70 MPH. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN A HILL IN MOTION AND I WAS ATTEMPTING TO MAKE A RIGHT TURN. MY CHEVY EQUINOX SHUT OFF AS I MADE THE TURN. MY TRUCK STOPPED AND MY BACK END WAS IN THE LANE I WAS ATTEMPTING TO LEAVE. THE FRONT END WAS ON THE STREET I TRIED TO TURN ON. SO I IMMEDIATELY TRIED TO START THE EQUINOX. I TOOK FOUR TIMES FOR IT TO START. THIS HAS HAPPENS AT LEAST TWICE A WEEK. I'M TERRIFIED TO GET ON THE LOCAL HIGHWAY. ALSO I'M TERRIFIED TO GET ON THE INTERSTATE FOR FEAR I WILL GET INTO A WRECK BECAUSE IF MY VEHICLE SHUTTING OFF. I'VE HAD THE VEHICLE FOR ONE YEAR. I'M STUCK WITH IT. IT'S TOTALLY UNSAFE. THE DEALERSHIP REFUSES TO RETURN MY CALLS. I GET REGULAR OIL CHANGES. I NEED THEM MORE FREQUENTLY DUE TO THE OIL BURNING SO QUICKLY. I HAVE TO CHECK MY OIL ON A DAILY BASIS SO I CAN MAKE SURE THERE IS ENOUGH OIL FOR ME TO DRIVE TO WORK. SOMETIMES MY VEHICLE SHAKES WHILE I'M STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGN. I'VE THEN WE'LL TAKE MY VEHICLE TO GET IT CHECKED THERE WILL BE OIL IN IT. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY IT SHAKES AND CUTS OFF AND BURNS UP OIL. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO DEAL WITH THIS. THE VEHICLE IS ONLY THREE YEARS OLD. *TR

THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND THEN THE CAR GOT STUCK IN PARK. NOW THE KEY WANT COME OUT THE IGNITION. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER HE SAID THE PASSENGER AIRBAG MODULE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AND THE BATTERY TERMINAL NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.

WIPERS FAIL TO OPERATE DESPITE WIPER TRANSMISSION ACTIVE.

WHILE AT IDLE, THE CAR STALLED. WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE ENGINE BUT AS SOON AS I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BREAK AND PRESSED THE GAS, THE CAR WOULD STALL AGAIN. HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY DIAGNOSED IT AS A MISFUNCTIONING INTAKE CAMSHAFT SOLENOID. PART WAS REPLACED. THIS SAME ISSUE HAS BEEN REPORTED NUMEROUS TIMES. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED BEFORE SERIOUS INJURY OCCURS. MY KIDS WERE IN THE CAR WITH ME WHEN THIS HAPPENED.

CAR STARTED RATTLING, SHAKING, STALLING WITH NO INDICATION BEFOREHAND OF ANY PROBLEMS. IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THERE WAS EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION, RESULTING IN USING ALL BUT ONE PINT OF OIL SINCE OIL CHANGE 2 1/2 MONTHS PRIOR, LESS THAN 2000 MILES SINCE OIL CHANGE. ENGINE DAMAGED AND FUEL PUMP NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. NO INDICATIONS THAT OIL WAS GETTING LOW, NO LIGHTS, NO SMOKE, NO SMELL, NO LEAKS, NO HESITATION. WHILE PARKING CAR, THIS ALL OCCURRED.

TWO WEEKS AGO MY CAR DIED WHILE BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE. I HAD THE ISSUE DIAGNOSED AT A MECHANIC, AND THE CODE CAME BACK AS' P0010 - BANK 1 INTAKE CAMSHAFT POSITION ACTUATOR ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT HAD A FAULT.' TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY REPLACE IT FOR FREE. ON THE DEALERSHIP RECEIPT IT SAYS 'REPLACE CAMSHAFT POSITION ACTUATOR SOLENOID VALVE.'

HAVE HAD THE CAR LESS THAN A YEAR. HAD IT IN THE SERVICE SHOP 4-6 TIMES FOR NOISY BREAKS AND SQUEAL IN THE FRONT COMING FROM ENGINE. EVERY TIME YOU PUT ON THE BREAKS IT MAKES AN AWFUL NOISE. WHEN YOU TURN THE CAR COMPLETELY OFF IT SQUEALS FROM THE ENGINE. THE SERVICE MANAGER STATED 'IT'S SUPPOSED TO SOUND LIKE THAT'

THE KEY HAS BROKEN OUT OF THE KEY FAB WITH BOTH SETS OF MY KEYS SINCE OWNING THE VEHICLE (LESS THAN 4 YEARS). THE FIRST BROKEN WHEN CLICKING THE SMALL SILVER CIRCLE BUTTON TO UNLATCH THE KEY. IT THEN BROKE OFF, WITH MULTIPLE PIECES SCATTERING ACROSS MY DRIVEWAY. THE SECOND ISSUE WAS TODAY WHEN I WAS DRIVING. MY KEYFAB, 2 KEYS (FOR WORK AND HOME) AND AUTOMATIC STARTER DROPPED IN MY LAP WITH MY KEY STILL IN THE IGNITION. THIS KEY HAS BEEN USED FOR ONLY ABOUT 9 MONTHS AS I USED MY PREVIOUS KEY UNTIL IT BROKE.

TAKARA RECALL WAS DRIVING DURING A REALLY BAD RAIN STORM 65 MILES AN HR AND WHEN WIPERS STOPPED WORKING THOUGHT WE WERE GOING TO DIE CARS AND SEMIS HONKING WE DIDENT KNOW WHAT HAPPENED BUT SEAMS TO HAVE A RECALL ON THIS ON 2013 BUT NOT 2015 I CAN ASSURE YOU MY LIFE WAS FLASHING BEFORE MY EYES AND SOMEONE IS GOING TO PAY TO FIX THIS AND IT WONT BE ME RECALL THE 2015 WIPER PROBLEMS

MY CAR IS A 2015 CHEVY EQUINOX THAT I HAVE DRIVEN SINCE I PICKED IT UP FROM THE DEALER WITH SIX MILES ON IT. ON OR ABOUT FEBRUARY 8. I STARTED THE CAR IN THE MORNING, AFTER RUNNING FOR A FEW SECONDS IT SOUNDED LIKE THE OIL WAS TOO LOW. I SHUT THE CAR OFF CHECKED THE OIL, FOUND IT LOW, I PUT TWO QUARTS IN AND STARTED IT AGAIN. I CHECKED IT AGAIN SAW IT WAS LOW, I LOOKED UNDERNEATH AND SAW OIL ON THE GROUND. I TOWED THE CAR TO MY REGULAR MECHANIC, HE SAID IT WAS A REAR MAIN SEAL. DURING THE REPAIR HE TOLD ME HE WAS RESEARCHING THE CAR AND LEARNED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR, AND WHILE HE IS REPLACING THE SEAL HE WANTED TO CLEAN THE PCV SYSTEM AS WELL. I ASKED HIM TO DO WHAT IS NECESSARY TO REPAIR THE CAR. AFTER PAYING OVER $1000.00 MY MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT I MAY WANT TO CALL GM OR NHTSA AND TRY TO GET REIMBURSED BECAUSE THIS IS THE SAME SYSTEM THAT WAS RECALLED, JUST A YEAR OFF. MY WIFE CALLED GM, THE PERSON SHE SPOKE WITH AGREED THAT THERE MAY BE AN ISSUE AND ASKED FOR ALL DOCUMENTATION, MY WIFE WAS SHOCKED WHEN THE 1ST REPRESENTATIVE TOLD HER THAT THEY KNEW ABOUT THE PROBLEM. THEN TOLD HER THAT A SENIOR REPRESENTATIVE WILL CALL HER BACK THE NEXT. TODAY THAT SENIOR REPRESENTATIVE CALLED HER BACK. I WAS HOME WHEN THIS HAPPENED. AFTER SHE EXPLAINED WHAT HAPPENED AND WHAT WAS DONE TO THE CAR THE FIST RESPONSE SHE GOT WAS "SINCE WE DIDN'T TAKE THE CAR TO A GM DEALERSHIP THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO" SHE THEN PUT ME ON THE PHONE AND I ASKED HIM THAT IF THE GM DEALER FIXED IT WOULD IT BE TAKEN CARE OF.? HE THEN CHANGED HIS TUNE TELLING ME THAT IT HAS NOT BEEN ESTABLISHED THAT A RECALL EXISTS. HOWEVER, HE DID SAY THAT NOTING CAN BE DONE JUST BECAUSE I READ SOMETHING ON THE INTERNET. I REPLIED THAT YES I WAS DOING RESEARCH, YES, I DID FIND OTHERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AS THE RECALL.IF OTHERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. WHY NOT ANOTHER RECALL?

CAR HAS 57,323 P0013 WAS REPLACED LESS THAN ONE WEEK AGO AND NOW IT'S POPPING BACK UP WITH A P0014.

WINDSHIELD WIPER MODULE FAILURE. THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WHERE THE WIPERS STOP WORKING. THIS MAY HAPPEN AT A CRUCIAL TIME LEAVING THE DRIVER'S VISION DISTORTED AND BLURRED IN TRAFFIC. WHY HAVEN'T THERE BEEN A RECALL IN THE US WHILE THEY'VE BEEN RECALLED IN CANADA!

HAVING A PROBLEM WITH MY 2015 EQUINOX.. 2 DAYS AGO MY INTERIOR LIGHT FOR MY STEREO AND AC WENT OUT.. ME THINKING IT WILL COME ON AFTER TURNING THE CAR OFF NOPE DIDN'T WORK IM FRUSTRATED BECAUSE ITS COLD AND I CAN'T USE MY HEAT OR COLD AIR ME LED SCREEN IS ON SO I CAN SEE THE TIME AND TEMP BUT I CANT ADJUST THE VOLUME FOR THE STEREO OR THE FAN IN THE CAR JUST THE STEERING WHEELS VOLUME WORKS AND CONTROLS ARE FINE STILL ABLE TO RECEIVE CALLS.. WHATS WRONG? IVE HAD THE CAR LESS THEN 2 MONTHS AND ALREADY GIVING ME MY 1ST PROJECT NO BUENO!!

I HAVE NOT HAD THIS CAR A YEAR YET AND IT STALLED ON ME TWICE WHILE I WAS BACKING OUT OF THE PARKING LOT. LUCKILY THERE WAS NO CA PARKED IN FRONT OF ME SO I HAD TO PULL OUT STRAIGHT TO DRIVE. I DROVE FOR MAYBE ANOTHER 20 MINUTES AND THE CAR STALLED ON ME TWICE WHILE I WAS SITTING AT A RED LIGHT. THE CAR STARTED BACK UP AND THEN STALLED ON MY WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE CITY STREET. I HAVE A FULL TANK OF GAS, 46% OIL IN THE VEHICLE AND COOLANT IN THE VEHICLE. I GET MY OIL CHANGED EVERY 3000 MILES

WIPER FAILURE. GM CURRENTLY HAS A RECALL FOR THE 2013 EQUINOX FOR THIS ISSUE. OUR 2015 EQUINOX HAS THE SAME ISSUE WHERE THE WIPERS FAILED AT WHAT MAY HAVE BEEN A CRITICAL TIME THAT CLEARLY PRESENTS A DANGER. HTTPS://STATIC.NHTSA.GOV/ODI/RCL/2016/RCSB-16V582-8151.PDF 0125

I OWN A 2015 CHEVY EQUINOX THAT PCV SYSTEM FAILED AND CAUSE MAJOR ENGINE DAMAGE. THE DAY ISSUE HAPPENED IS ONE OF THE COLDEST DAYS IN RECORD IN THE STATE OF MISSOURI. THE PCV SYSTEM FROZE CAUSING EXCESSIVE PRESSURE IN THE ENGINE CAUSE THE REAR MAIN SEAL TO BLOW. ONCE THIS HAPPEN THE CAR START TO LOOSE EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS OF OIL WHICH LEAD TO THE ENGINE DAMAGE. THERE IS NOT A OIL PRESSURE GAUGE IN THE CAR SO THERE WAS NO WAY OF TELLING IF THERE WAS NO OIL PRESSURE, ONLY A OIL LIGHT IN WHICH IT DID NOT COME ON. HOW I FOUND OUT I HAD THE ISSUE IS WHEN THE ENGINE STARTED HAMMERING. I SHUT OFF THE ENGINE QUICKLY AND HAD IT ROLLED BACK TO GM. WHERE I WAS TOLD THAT MY ENGINE IS NO GOOD AND I NEED A NEW ONE, WHICH COST 7700 TO FIX. MY CAR HAD THE SAME ISSUE AS DESCRIBE ON THE GM 14882 BULLETIN BUT STILL NO HELP WITH THE COST. AFTER SPEAKING WITH THE SERVICE MANAGER HE TRIED TO GET GOOD WILL WARRANTY SINCE IM OVER MY 100,000 MILE WARRANTY.BUT STILL NO HELP, I HAVE TO PAY FOR THE ENGINE MY SELF BECAUSE I STILL HAVE THE LOAN THROUGH GMAC. THE WORST THING ABOUT THE ISSUE IS THAT THE SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND ONLY CERTAIN CARS ARE COVERED ON THE BULLETIN AND THAT THE BULLETIN ONLY TIES TO THE VIN ON THE CAR. WELL READING UP THIS IS A HUGE ISSUE AND SO FAR THERE ARE MORE COMPLAINS THEN RECALL FIXES. SOMEONE NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.

WHILE DRIVING ALONG IN A RAINSTORM MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS FAILED. IT WAS PRETTY STRESSFULL FOR A TIME TILL I WAS ABLE TO STOP. PLEASE ADD ME TO THE LIST OF COMPLAINTS. THE FIX WAS OVER 500 DOLLARS

CAR SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND WHEN SLOWING DOWN OR THE CAR HAS STOPPED IN TRAFFIC ON THE FREEWAY OR AT A RED LIGHT THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF. TOOK THE CAR TO THE SHOP AND UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE ISSUE. WILL RETURN IT TO THE SHOP AGAIN FOR A MORE THOROUGH INSPECTION. THIS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE DRIVING TO WORK.

SERVICE AIRBAG DASH LIGHT/ALARM COMES ON EVERY 10 SECONDS WHETHER SOMEONE IS IN THE SEAT OR NOT. WAS TOLD THAT I NEEDED TO REPLACE THE PASSENGER SIDE PRESENCE DETECTOR AND MODULE.

WIPER BLADES STOPPED WORKING.

THE FRONT WINDOW DEFROSTER DOES NOT BLOW ANY AIR, WHICH CAUSES THE INSIDE TO FOG OVER. ALSO THE OUTSIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD FREEZES CAUSING EXTREME VISIBILITY LOSS. THE DEFROSTER DOES NOT WORK AT ALL REGARDLESS IF I AM DRIVING OR PARKED. I REVIEWED MAY OTHERS WITH THE EXACT SAME ISSUE FOR MANY DIFFERENT YEAR EQUINOX. THERE REALLY NEEDS TO BE A RECALL TO CORRECT THIS BEFORE AN ACCIDENT OCCURS CAUSING DEATH.

THE CAR WAS PARKED (THANK GOD) AND WHEN THE WIPERS WERE TURNED ON, THEY NO LONGER WORKED. JUST BOUGHT THE CAR 9 DAYS AGO! 54K ON IT. I TOOK IT APART AND FOUND THE WIPER TRANSMISSION HAD FALLEN APART!

I DRIVE MY CAR EVERYDAY. IT HAS SEAT HEATERS IN THE FRONT SEATS. I HAVE CLOTH SEATS. I WAS NOTICING THAT WHENEVER I TURNED MY SEAT WARMER ON, IT WAS GETTING REALLY HOT IN ONE SPECIFIC PLACE AND MADE MY LEG BURN. ONE DAY, I LOOKED AT MY LEG AFTER I GOT OUT AND THERE WAS A SMALL BURN ON MY LEG. I LOOKED AT THE SEAT AND THERE WAS A SMALL BURN MARK/ HOLE THROUGH MY SEAT. I DO NOT TURN THE HEATERS ON ANYMORE, OBVIOUSLY. HOWEVER, SOMETIMES IT COMES ON ON ITS OWN AND GETS SUPER HOT AND I CAN'T TURN IT OFF. SO, I HAD TO START DRIVING WITH A BLANKET UNDER ME SO I DIDN'T GET BURNED. I WAS SCARED THE BLANKET WAS GOING TO CATCH FIRE, SO I TOOK IT TO A SHOP TO GET LOOKED AT. THEY SAID IT HAD SHORT CURCUITED AND THAT I SHOULD CHECK TO SEE IF THE SEATS HAD BEEN RECALLED. I CALLED CHEVERLET AND ALL THEY TOLD ME WAS THAT THERE WAS NOT A RECALL AND BASICALLY SAID 'THAT SUCKS'. I DON'T WANT THIS TO HAPPEN TO ANYONE ELSE AND I ALSO DON'T THINK IT'S FAIR THAT I HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET TO FIX IT. CHEVY DIDN'T EVEN OFFER TO FILE A REPORT ABOUT MY INCIDENT.

SNOWSTORM ON 1/12/2019, MY WIFE WAS DRIVING AND THE WIPERS JUST STOPPED WORKING, SHE HAD TO TRY TO PULL OVER AND COULD NOT SEE ANYTHING.

IT WAS RAINING AND MY WIPERS WERE SET ON THE AUTOMATIC SETTING WHERE THEY WOULD WORK ABOUT EVERY 20-30 SECONDS. THEY STOPPED WORKING IN MID WIPE!! THE MISTER IS STILL FUNCTIONAL BECAUSE I CAN HEAR IT BUT THE WIPERS ARE NOT. I HAVE BEEN READING THAT THIS IS A MAJOR ISSUE WITH THE MODEL OF VEHICLE AND THE PART HAS BEEN RECALLED IN CANADA. WHY NOT HERE???? I LOST ALL VISIBILITY WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT NIGHT!!! I WAS SCARED TO DEATH AND DROVE THE CAR HOME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS FAILED. WHILE DRIVING IN THE RAIN, THE WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR MADE A NOISE THAT SOUNDED AS IF THE MOTOR WAS TRYING TO ENGAGE THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS, BIT NEVER DID. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 9-4970143711. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 125,000.

TAKATA RECALL: MY CAR WAS INVOLVED IN A 3 CAR CRASH AT THE CORNER OF 28TH AVE N AND 4TH ST. N ON DECEMBER 14, 2018. I WAS IN THE MEDIAN WAITING TO CROSS ONCOMING TRAFFIC WHEN I PERCEIVED THE LANES WERE CLEAR AND PROCEEDED TO CROSS THE ROAD. I WAS T-BONED BY AN ONCOMING DODGE AVENGER, INTO THE FRONT END OF A JEEP WRANGLER AND PUSHED INTO A STOP SIGN. MY AIRBAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY BUT THE AVENGER'S PASSENGER AND DRIVER AIRBAGS DEPLOYED.I WAS TAKEN TO BAYFRONT ER BY AMBULANCE AND ADMITTED TO TRAUMA DEPARTMENT SUFFERING A STERNUM FRACTURE AND COMPRESSED CHEST INJURIES. MY LEFT HAND ALSO SUFFERED A POSSIBLE FRACTURE. THE POLICE REPORT IS NOT FACTUAL. IT STATES MY AIRBAGS WERE DEPLOYED BUT FROM THE PICTURE YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE THEY WERE NOT AND THE INSURANCE ADJUSTER WILL TESTIFY THAT THEY WERE NOT DEPLOYED.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE (GOING 75MPH) IN MODERATE RAIN WHEN SUDDENLY OUR WINDSHIELD WIPERS OVER EXTENDED AND WOULD NO LONGER ENGAGE. WE HAD TO STOP BECAUSE WE COULDN'T SEE. WE HAD TO MAKE OUR WAY OFF THE HIGHWAY AND TO A REPAIR SHOP TO GET THEM 'RIGGED' TO GET US BACK ON THE ROAD.

ON THE EVENING OF DECEMBER 22ND, 2018 DURING HEAVY RAIN DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60MPH ON THE FREEWAY (SOUTH ON I5 IN EVERETT, WA), THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED FUNCTIONING IN MID STROKE. WITH EXTREMELY POOR VISIBILITY, WE MANAGED TO PULL THE VEHICLE OFF THE FREEWAY WE SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF AND RESTARTED IT HOPING THIS WOULD RESET THE WIPERS, BUT THEY CONTINUED TO NOT FUNCTION. THE WIPER MOTOR CAN BE HEARD FUNCTIONING, HOWEVER, THE WIPER ARMS FAIL TO MOVE. WE WILL BE TAKING IT TO OUR DEALER FOR SERVICE, BUT SUSPECT THE BUSHINGS ON THE TRANSMISSION HAVE FAILED.

CAR STALLS WHILE DRIVING, WHILE STOPPED IN TRAFFIC CAR WILL STALL WHEN BRAKE IS RELEASED AND WILL ALSO STALL WHILE PUSHING THE ACCELERATOR. STALLS WHILE IN DRIVE AND REVERSE.

I WAS TRAVELING ON A HIGHWAY IN HEAVY RAIN WHEN SUDDENLY THE PASSENGER-SIDE WIPER STARTED MOVING IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION AS THE DRIVER-SIDE WIPER. IT FINALLY STOPPED DEAD AND I ONLY HAD THE DRIVER SIDE WIPER BUT THE BLADE WAS BADLY DAMAGED WHEN THEY WERE HITTING ONE ANOTHER SO I HAD VERY LIMITED VISION. I CONSIDER THIS TO BE AN EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS SITUATION.

DURING A SNOW STORM IN VIRGINIA 12/09/2018 MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT WARNING STOPPED WORKING. I HAD TO DRIVE REMAINDER OF THE 2 HOUR DRIVE HOME DURING A SNOW STORM, AT NIGHT IN TREACHEROUS CONDITIONS WITH NO WINDSHIELD WIPERS. I HAD TO HAVE THE DEALERSHIP (TAPPAHANNOCK CHEVROLET) REPLACE THE ENTIRE WINDSHIELD WIPER TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY (WITH MOTOR) SIMPLY BECAUSE A PLASTIC TRANSMISSION ARM LOCK (POORLY DESIGNED PLASTIC BUTTON/BUSHING BROKE. TOTAL COST WAS $357.40 DUE TO A LOUSY DESIGN!

VEHICLE DRIVING ON FREEWAY AT 70 MPH. HEAVY RAIN GOING ON WITH WINDSHIELD WIPERS GOING ON. SUDDENLY WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED AND VISIBILITY WAS MINIMAL. IT WAS DIFFICULT TO FIND THE EMERGENCY SHOULDER OF FREEWAY. VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. CAR HAD TO BE TOWED SINCE IT COULD NOT BE DRIVEN IN THE RAIN

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED OPERATING WHILE THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING IN THE RAIN. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OR REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 57,000.

LAST SATURDAY AS I WAS DRIVING ON THE TOLLWAY, MY WIPERS JUST STOPPED WORKING. IT WAS POURING RAIN. TALK ABOUT BEING SCARED. I MANAGED TO GET TO THE NEXT EXIT AND GET OFF THE TOLLWAY AND PULL OVER ON A SIDE STREET. I HAD A SWEAT SHIRT IN THE CAR AND HAD TO SAFELY PULL OVER AT TIMES EVERY 3 BLOCKS TO CLEAR THE WINDOW. SOMETIMES THE RAIN SLOWED AND I COULD GO A LITTLE FURTHER DOWN SIDE STREETS. I MADE IT TO A GAS STATION WITH OF COURSE NO MECHANIC AND LOCATED THE WIPER FUSE AND SWITCHED THE REAR CAMERA FUSE WITH IT (SAME W), BUT IT STILL DIDN'T WORK. I BOUGHT PAPER TOWELS AND AGAIN KEPT STOPPING TO WIPE THE WINDOW. REALLY DANGEROUS AND SCARY. MIRACULOUSLY, ABOUT HALF WAY TO HOME FROM THERE IT STOPPED RAINING AND I WAS ABLE TO GET HOME. RESEARCH SHOWS THIS WIPER PROBLEM IS A RECALL IN CANADA. IT SHOULD BE HERE, TOO. IT COST $595 TO REPAIR.

MY 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX HAS DEVELOPED A SPONGEY BRAKE PEDAL,THE CAR DOES STOP BUT THE PEDAL IS SPONGEY. IS IT POSSIBLE THAT GM HAS A BIGGER PROBLEM WITH VEHICLES THAT ARE COVERED UNDER EXISTING RECALL?

JULY 25, 2018 WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY IN A HEAVY RAINSTORM FRONT WINDSHIELD WIPERS MOTOR WENT OUT COMPLETELY I HAD 0 VISIBILITY I WAS STRANDED ON THE HIGHWAY FOR HOURS UNTIL THE RAIN STOPPED. IT WAS REPAIRED THE NEXT DAY THEY STATED WATER HAD GOTTEN INTO THE LINKAGE AND UPPER TRANSMISSION BOX FOR THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS ALSO MATERIAL USED TO MAKE THE PARTS ARE NOT OF GOOD QUALITY. NOVEMBER 15, 2018 NOW THREE MONTHS LATER DURING A MAJOR SNOW AND ICE STORM THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM ONLY THIS TIME I WAS ON A CITY STREET DRIVING.

I EAS FRIVONG 2 PASSENGERS FOR LYFT AND IT STARTED RAINING VERY HARD.I TURNED ON MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS ON THE FASTEST SETTING BECAUSE I COULD NOT SEE WHERE I WAS GOING AND I HEARED THE WIPERS BANGING HARD AS THEY WERE WIPING THE RAIN AWAY SO I CAN SEE THE ROAD WHEN SUDDENLY MY WIPERS STOPPED EN ROUTE TO MY FIRST ADDRESS.MY FIRST CLIENT LIVED 10 MINUTES AWAY IN RUSH HOUR BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC.I GOT SO SCARED AND MY CLIENTS WERE EVEN MORE SCARED BECAUSE I HAD TO DRIVE THEM HOME WITH MY HEAD STICKING OUT OF THE WINDOW.AFTER DROPPING THEM OFF SAFELY IN A TERRIBLE RAIN STORM MY WIPERS STOPPED WORKING WHILE I WAS DRIVING.WHEN I LOOKED INTO THEM IT WAS MY WIPER MOTOR AND LINKAGE THAT BROKE OFF AND STOPPED THEM FROM WIPING THE HEAVY RAIN.LUCKY I HAVE SOME KNOWLEDGE WITH THIS PART BECAUSE IT HAPPENED TO ME BEFORE IN A DIFFERENT VEHICLE,SO I BOUGHT A USED SET FROM THE JUNK YARD TO PUT ON MY NEW CAR.BUT I WOULD LIKE FOR A BRAND NEW SET PUT IN MY VEHICLE BEFORE THE USED ONE BREAKS ON ME.I ALSO HAD A PROBLEM WITH AN AIR CONDITIONING/HEAT PART THAT BROKE INSIDE THE SAME VEHICLE.

WHILE DRIVING IN THE RAIN IN MY 2015 EQUINOX ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING CREATING AN EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS CONDITION. NEEDED TO HAVE THE WIPER TRANSMISSION REPLACED BY THE DEALER AT A COST $380.00.

AS I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY 2 WEEKS AGO IN THE RAIN, MY DRIVER SIDE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WERE GOING BACK AND FORTH AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE DRIVER SIDE WIPER GOT STUCK AND STOPPED WORKING. I ENDED UP GETTING IT FIXED AND IT WAS $300 TO REPAIR. I ALSO SAW AN ARTICLE ABOUT HOW THIS WAS COMMON ON OLDER MODELS OF THE SAME CAR. UNFORTUNATELY SINCE I HAVE A 2015, I JUST MISSED THE RECALL NOTICE, EVEN THOUGH I APPARENTLY HAD THE SAME ISSUE WITH MINE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS FAILED TO FUNCTION DURING INCLEMENT WEATHER. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT HAD TO DRIVE EXTREMELY SLOWLY AND PARKED THE VEHICLE DUE TO THE FAILURE.
