MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD COME ON AND THEN TURN OFF AFTER A COUPLE DAYS THIS HAPPEN FOR A FEW MONTHS AND THEN NOW IT'S ON PERMANENTLY I CHECKED WITH ONSTAR AND HAD THEM RUN A TEST AND IT SAYS MY EMISSIONS CONTROL SYSTEM IS IN TROUBLE I DO NOT UNDERSTAND BECAUSE I USE GOOD FUEL I MAINTAIN MY ORIOLE AND MY MAINTENANCE ON MY VEHICLE AT ALL TIMES AND IT IS A FAIRLY NEW EQUINOX I SHOULD NOT BE HAVING THIS PROBLEM

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH IN THE RAIN, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS SEIZED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT HAD TO PULL OVER AND WAIT FOR THE RAIN TO STOP. THE CONTACT MANAGED TO DRIVE HOME, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER WERE NOT NOTIFIED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 95,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WERE INOPERABLE DURING INCLEMENT WEATHER. THE CONTACT COULD NOT SEE THE ROADWAY AT ALL. THE FAILURE WAS A SAFETY HAZARD. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER WERE NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 153,000. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE WITH MY DAUGHTER IN MY CAR IN HEAVY TRAFFIC WITH CONSTRUCTION ALL AROUND AND IT BEGAN TO RAIN HEAVILY SO I TURNED ON THE WIPERS AND THE WIPERS WENT UP AND STOPPED RIGHT IN FRONT OF MY FACE, I COULDN'T SEE ANYTHING. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE PEOPLE COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED! HOW DOES THIS HAPPEN WITH NO WARNING LIGHT OR ALARM OR ANYTHING. I WAS TERRIFIED!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHILE DRIVING HOME IN A RAINSTORM, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS MALFUNCTIONED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS AN UNKNOWN RECALL PERTAINING TO THE FAILURE, BUT IT APPLIED TO CANADIAN VEHICLES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 112,000.

MY DRIVER SEAT IS STUCK IN THE FORWARD POSITION. IT WILL NOT GO BACKWARDS. IT WILL GO UP AND DOWN BUT NOT BACKWARDS.

THE CAR WOULD NOT GO IN REVERSE GEAR AND ONLY HAD 1ST AND 2ND GEAR IN FORWARD

CAR SLOWED DOWN DURING DRIVING, I PULLED OVER AND TRIED TO CHANGE GEARS; UNABLE TO DO SO, I CALLED THE PICK UP TRUCK, AFTER THEY CHECKED THE CAR THEY SAID THE PROBLEM WAS THE TRANSMISSION AND I SHOULD CALL THE DEALER BECAUSE OF THE LOW MILLAGE AND THAT THE TRANSMISSION FLUID WAS FULL.

TIMING AND OR BALANCE CHAIN TO THE ENGINE IS STRETCHED AND COULD RESULT IN BREAKAGE. THIS CAN HAPPEN AT ANYTIME. THIS HAS BEEN A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS ENGINE AS REPORTED IN GM SPECIAL COVERAGE 12312D THAT SPECIFICALLY COVERS 2010-2011 CHEVROLET EQUINOX, ALONG WITH 3 OTHER MODEL VEHICLES. MY VIN IS NOT FLAGGED AS PART OF THIS SPECIAL COVERAGE ALTHOUGH IT IS CAUSING THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE SAME MODEL AND YEAR AS DEPICTED IN THE SPECIAL COVERAGE.

MY 2010 CHEVY EQUINOX WAS RUNNING FINE AND OUT OF THE SUDDEN, IT STOPPED AND WENT OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING. IT REFUSED TO START AGAIN. I HAVE RECENTLY DONE AN OIL CHANGE AND THE WAS NO WARNING ON THE DASHBOARD TO INDICATE ANY PROBLEM. I BOUGHT THIS CAR ABOUT 6 MONTHS AND THIS TOOK PLACE. THIS CAR WAS WELL MAINTAINED, OIL CHANGES AND OTHER MAINTENANCE WERE DONE ON TIME. I TOOK IT TO A SHOP AND WHILE THE MECHANICS WERE TRYING TO MAKE IT START, IT WILL NOT START. THEY (MECHANICS) CALLED THE DEALER AND SOMEONE FROM THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT THE PROBLEM WAS COVERED UNDER MANUFACTURER WARRANTY SO I SHOULD TAKE THE CAR TO THEM FOR THEIR TECHNICIANS TO DO A TEST. AFTER THE TEST THEY SAID IT WAS A LOW ENGINE KNOCK AND I WILL HAVE TO GET ANOTHER ENGINE BY MYSELF BECAUSE THE MANUFACTURER DOESN'T COVER IT. DON'T KNOW WHO TO BELIEVE NOW. MY CAR THAT I JUST BOUGHT IS DOWN AND I'M STUCK IN THIS TERRIBLE SITUATION.

OIL CONSUMPTION. I'VE SPEND 2K IN REPAIRS OVER THIS PAST YEAR FOR OIL CONSUMPTIONS PROBLEMS AND IT STILL CONSUME AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL, TO THE POINT I HAVE TO ADD A QUART A WEEK TO STOP THE OIL FROM EXTREMELY RUNNING LOW.

AT 58569 MILES THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER, GASKET, AND NUT WERE REPLACED. I BEGAN COMPLAINING ABOUT OIL CONSUMPTION AT 72388 MILES. AT 77313, THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS FLASHING. THE DEALER GOT THE CODE P0300. THERE WAS A MISFIRE IN CYLINDER #2. THE DEALER REPLACED THE #2 COIL AND GASKET AS WELL AS THE SPARK PLUGS. AT 91968 MILES THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON AND THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER WAS REPLACED. AT 103123 MILES THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON AND THROTTLE BODY GASKET REPLACED. AT 105185 MILES THE ENGINE LIGHT ON AGAIN. REPLACEDSPARK PLUGS, REPROGRAMED ECM AND TCM. THERE WAS A MISFIRE IN CYLINDERS 1-3-AND 5. THE DEALER ALSO PERFORMED MAJOR THROTTLE BODY SERVICE AND CLEANED THE INTAKE. AT 112358 MILES THE CAR WAS TOWED TO DEALER. THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS FLASHING AND DEALER SAID A MISFIRE IN CYLINDER #4 AND OIL WAD FOUND IN #2 SPARK PLUG WELL. I CHECK MY OIL LEVEL EVERY WEEK AND HAVE BEEN DOING SO FOR MONTHS. I AM PUTTING IN AT LEAST 1 1/2 QUARTS OF OIL EVERY MONTH. I CHANGE THE OIL EVERY 3500 MILES WHETHER THE VEHICLE INDICATES THE NEED OR NOT. I HAVE READ MANY COMPLAINTS ON DIFFERENT WEBSITES. THE DEALERS RESPONSE IS THAT THEY CAN GET ME INTO A NEW EQUINOX. IT SEEMS THAT THIS OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEM IS KNOWN BY CHEVY BUT THIS SUV HAS NEVER BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS PROBLEM.

NHTSA REFERENCE #: 10081067 TSB REFERENCE #: G-205009 SPECIAL COVERAGE #: 14232A AFTER THE DEALER REPLACED THE PARTS ON MY VEHICLE, THE STEERING WHEEL IS STILL STICKING AND THE DEALER IS REQUESTING THAT ADDITIONAL PART(S) FROM THE STEERING WHEEL BE REPLACED AT MY OWN EXPENSES. I DO BELIEVE THAT ANY ADDITIONAL PARTS REQUIRED TO MAKE THE VEHICLE SAFE SHOULD BE AT THE MANUFACTURER EXPENSES. THE TROUBLESHOOTING WAS NOT DONE THE RIGHT WAY IN ORDER TO ISOLATE THE COMPONENTS.

SIDE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED GOING DOWN ROAD FOR NO REASON.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHILE DRIVING, THE CHECK ENGINE AND STABILITY CONTROL WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED, AND THE ENGINE WOULD STALL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO FERMAN CHEVROLET (9751 ALAMO DR, TAMPA, FL) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT THE HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP WAS PREVIOUSLY REPLACED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 27,000.

NUMBER ONE EXCESSIVE OIL STARTED AT ABOUT 55,000 MILES. NUMBER TWO EXCESSIVE ENGINE NOISE FROM TIMING CHAIN AND CAM SEIZURES. NUMBER THREE TRANSMISSION FAILURE 52,000 MILES. NUMBER 4 WIPER TRANSMISSION FAILURE AT APPROXIMATELY 48000 MILES NUMBER 5 CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON DUE TO FAULTY CAM ACTUATORS.

DRIVER SIDE WIPER STOPPED WORKING

'OIL CONSUMPTION AND DRIVEABILITY , VEHICLE USING MORE THAN ONE QUART OF OIL EVERY 400 MILES OR LESS, WAS AT BUSY INTERSECTION IN CITY ON MAJOR CITY STREET AND CAR FROZE UP, WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND ALMOST CAUSED ANOTHER VEHICLE TO HIT ME FROM BEHIND. TURNED OFF VEHICLE, THEN TURNED KEY AND IT STARTED LONG ENOUGH TO DRIVE INTO NEAREST PARKING LOT. HAD TO PRESS GAS PEDDLE ALL THE WAY DOWN AND VEHICLE WOULD NOT REVERSE AT AT. TOW TRUCK WAS CALLED AND TOWED TO LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP. IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEMS DUE TO THE 2010 ENGINE THAT IT WAS BUILT WITH. WAS ADVISED TO KEEP WATCH ON OIL UNTIL DECIDE HOW TO FIX ENGINE.

OIL COMSUMPTION, ABS LIGHT WANT GO OFF. STABLEIZER TRACK LIGHT WANT GO OFF AND THE DASHBOARD LIGHT WARNING WITH THE CAR AND THE WIGGLE LINES WNAT GO OFF. NOW MY DASHBORAD BRAKE LIGHT IS ON. EVERY TIME I START THE CAR UP ALL THESE LIGHTS COME ON AND I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT. I HAVE HAD IT CODED BUT NOTHING COMES UP. AND MY IGNITION IS STARTING TO SLIP WHEN I CRANK IT . IT DOES NOT MATTER IF I AM MOVING OR NOT THE LIGHTS STILL STAY ON.

WHILE DRIVING, VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE AND WOULD NOT SHIFT INTO NEXT GEAR, THEN SEEMED TO JUMP INTO HIGHER GEAR. THIS CAUSED ME TO ALMOST BE HIT BY MOTOR VEHICLE BEHIND ME. SECOND TIME, I WAS TURNING INTO BUSY INTERSECTION AND CAR COMPLETELY STALLED, TURNED OFF KEY AND RESTARTED CAR AND IT WOULD NOT DRIVE OVER 20 MILES AN HOUR SO PULLED INTO PARKING LOT AND WHEEL WAS VERY HARD TO CONTROL. CAR WOULD NOT GO INTO REVERSE. WAS LEFT STRANDED ON SIDE OF ROAD AND HAD VEHICLE TOWED TO CHEVY. HAS OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUES BUT RECENTLY PURCHASED CAR AND PASSED DATE FOR RECALLS AND WARRANTY REPAIR. GM NEEDS TO OFFER ALL PREVIOUS EXPIRED TO PEOPLE SUCH AS MYSELF WHO PURCHASE USED VEHICLES THAT WERE NEVER CORRECTED DURING RECALL TIMES.ALSO MY VIN WAS NOT LISTED IN RECALL BUT HAS THE EXACT ISSUES. THIS WAS CONFIRMED BY GM.

I HAVE A 2010 CHEVY EQUINOX AND I JUST GOT IT OUT OF THE SHOP FOR THE 2ND TIME IN 3 WEEKS WITHIN THAT TIME IT BURNED THROUGH ALL THE OIL THAT WAS IN THE ENGINE FROM A BRAND NEW OIL CHANGE. WE HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH EXTREMELY HIGH OIL CONSUMPTION. WE HAD THE PISTONS & RINGS REPLACED A COUPLE YEARS AGO BUT IT DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM AT ALL. WE REGULARLY CHANGE OUR OIL BUT AT THIS RATE WE NEED TO PUT OIL IN IT WEEKLY. THE MECHANIC TOLD US THAT OUR ENGINE IS ABOUT TO GO OUT BECAUSE OF BURNING OF THE OIL SO FAST. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND NOW. CHANGING JUST THE PISTONS AND RINGS WILL NOT FIX IT. CHEVROLET OWES THIS YEAR OF EQUINOX A NEW, SOLID ENGINE THAT DOESNT EXCESSIVELY BURN OIL AT AN ALARMING RATE. WE HAVE BEEN SET UP TO FAIL BY FINANCING THIS VEHICLE.

I TOOK MY EQUINOX TO THE GARAGE STARTED OUT AS AN OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE THEN TURNED INTO THE WHOLE MOTOR GETTING REBUILT.

TL* THE CONTACT CALLED ON BEHALF OF HIS SPOUSE WHO OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH IN INCLEMENT WEATHER, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS BECAME INOPERABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION WIPER LINKAGE FRACTURED; HOWEVER, THE ENTIRE WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 132,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

I STARTED NOTICING THAT WATER WAS SOAKING THE FLOOR MAT ON THE DRIVERS SIDE OF THE CAR AFTER IT RAINED OR I WENT THROUGH A CAR WASH. I TOOK THE CAR TO A REPAIR SHOP AND THEY NOTIFIED ME THAT THE BOTTOM OF THE CAR IS NOT WELDED PROPERLY FROM THE MANUFACTURER, SO THE SPACE WHERE IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN WELDED TOGETHER HAS LEFT HOLES ON BOTH SIDES OF THE BOTTOM OF THE CAR. THESE HOLES PROVIDE AN AREA WHERE WATER LEAKS INTO THE CAR AND CONTINUOUSLY SOAKS THE FLOORS. THERE IS ALSO INFORMATION FROM GM THAT STATES OTHER 2010 CHEVROLET EQUINOX CARS HAVE HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM, SO IT IS CLEARLY A MANUFACTURING PROBLEM.

I WAS DRIVING IN HEAVY RAIN AND THE WIPER WENT PAST THE DRIVER SIDE WINDSHIELD AND JUST STOPPED WORKING. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND WAIT TILL RAIN STOPPED TO DRIVE HOME. THE MOTOR SOUNDS LIKE IT'S WORKING BUT WIPERS WILL NOT MOVE.

MY 2010 CHEVROLET EQUINOX IS BURNING OIL VERY FAST. I HAVE HAD A MECHANIC AT MY WORK CHECK THE OIL LEVEL EVERY THURSDAY FOR THE LAST MONTH AND ADD APPROXIMATELY 1.5 LITRES EVERY THURSDAY. MY CO-WORKER HAD THE SAME ISSUE WITH HER EQUINOX AND IT WAS A RECALL. HER OIL WAS GOING INTO HER FUEL. THIS IS CLEARLY AN ISSUE THAT SEEMS TO BE REOCCURRING. BEFORE REALIZING THAT THE OIL WAS AN ISSUE, MY CAR WOULD AUTOMATICALLY SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING- SOMETIMES IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION.

THIS CAR BURNS OIL FAST AND I LEARNED THE HARD WAY. 2 YEARS AFTER BUYING THE CAR ALL THE PISTONS IN THE ENGINE BENT DUE TO LACK OF OIL. WHEN THE CAR WAS GETTING FIXED THE MECHANIC SAID IT WAS BONE DRY AND I HAD JUST HAD AN OIL CHANGE 2 MONTHS PRIOR. $3,200 LATER THE CAR WAS FIXED, BUT IT STILL HAD ISSUES SHIFTING. IN COLDER WEATHER THE CAR FELT LIKE IT WOULD BARELY MOVE. I HAD NO REAL MECHANICAL ISSUES UNTIL A YEAR LATER. I HAD DRIVEN IT 45 MILES AND STOPPED AT A GAS STATION, WHEN I WENT TO TURN THE CAR BACK ON ALL OF THE EMERGENCY LIGHTS CAME ON AS WELL AS THE 'STABILITRAK' LIGHT AND THE CAR WOULDN'T MOVE. THE ONLY WAY I COULD GET IT TO MOVE WAS BY TURNING THE TRACTION OFF, AND WAS THANKFULLY ABLE TO DRIVE IT HOME. I GOT IT INTO THE GM DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THE STABILITY TRACK AND THE CRANKSHAFT NEEDED REPLACED. MY ABS LIGHT WAS STILL FAILING AND I'M TOTAL IT WAS ANOTHER $1,400 OF WORK. NOW THE ENGINE SEEMS TO BE MAKING A CRANKING NOISE. I'M TIRED OF WASTING MONEY ON THIS PIECE OF JUNK!!!!!

MY HUSBAND AND I WERE HEADED HOME FROM ASHTABULA DURING A HEAVY RAIN STORM ON A STATE HIGHWAY 528 N OF PARKMAN, TRAVELING APPROX 45 MPH, WHEN THE WIPER BLADES ABRUPTLY QUIT WORKING! WE WERE IN AMISH TERRITORY (AS IN THE POSSIBILITY OF APPROACHING HORSE-DRAWN BUGGIES) AND OUR VISIBILITY WAS INSTANTLY REDUCED TO ZERO. I DID SOME RESEARCH ON LINE AND DISCOVERED THAT THIS IS A COMMON COMPLAINT W/ THE2010 EQUINOX AND IT IS DUE TO THE POOR DESIGN (PLASTIC BUSHINGS).

WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE IN RAIN, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING. THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED AT THE TOP OF THEIR ROTATION, IMPEDING VIEW, AND NO LONGER MOVED. AFTER RETURNING HOME, HAVING TO DRIVE SLOWLY DUE TO HARD RAIN WITHOUT WIPERS, I TURNED THE WIPERS ON AND NOTICED THEY STILL DIDN'T MOVE. I GOT OUT OF THE CAR AND WALKED OVER TO WINDSHIELD TO SEE IF I COULD HEAR THE MOTOR WORKING. I COULD HEAR THE MOTOR BUT SAW NO MOVEMENT OF THE WIPERS. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM, I FOUND OUT THAT THE LINKAGE BUSHINGS ARE UNDER INVESTIGATION AND I WANTED TO INCLUDE MY COMPLAINT SO CHEVY ISSUES A RECALL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO DECELERATE AND CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP.

TRANSMISSION FAILURE AT 66,000 MILES WHILE VEHICLE IN MOTION.

I GOT MY 2010 CHEVY EQUINOX ON JANUARY 4, 2019. EVER SINCE THE SECOND WEEK, I'VE HAD IT I'VE BEEN HAVING TROUBLE WITH IT AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT JUST BECAUSE I NEEDED A TUNE UP AND OIL CHANGE AFTER I GOT THOSE THE PROBLEM CONTINUED. SO AROUND THE END OF FEBRUARY, I PUT THE SUV IN THE SHOP THEY SAID IT WAS THE WATER PUMP/BALANCE SHAFT CHAIN THE ENTIRE THING COST $669.49. I WAS VERY EXCITED TO GET MY SUV BACK ON MARCH 15, 2019, JUST IN TIME FOR ME TO GO TO OUT OF TOWN JUST TO FIND OUT THE CAR IS MAKING THE SAME NOISE AND DOING THE SAME ROUGH RIDING. I TOOK THE CAR BACK IN THE SHOP FOR A DIAGNOSTIC IN APRIL THEY SAID THAT THEY HAD A LOT OF VEHICLES WITH THE SAME AND TO FILE A COMPLAINT. I PUT THE CAR DOWN SINCE THEN AND IT'S JUST SITTING UNDER GARAGE TAKING MY MONEY. THE CAR ALSO CUT OFF ON ME MULTIPLE TIMES THE LATEST TIME IT HAPPENED TO ME, I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE STREET AND I COULDN'T ACCELERATE AND IT JUST CUT OFF AND I HAD TO PUT ON HAZARDS AND I ALMOST GOT HIT.

ME AND MY WIFE WERE DRIVING WHEN IT STARTED TO RAIN. SO I TURNED ON THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS. THEN IT STARTED TO POUR DOWN AND IT WAS HARD TO SEE. WHEN I TURNED THE WIPERS ON HIGH SPEED WITHIN A FEW MINUTES THEY STOPPED WORKING. THAT'S WHEN I NOTICED THAT THE WIPERS WERE STUCK IN THE UP POSITION. I COULD NOT SEE ANYTHING I THINK GOD I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER.

VEHICLE WAS STOPPED AT INTERSECTION. VEHICLE WOULD NOT MOVE AFTER USING ACCELERATOR, AND THE ENGINE CONTINUED TO RUN AT HIGHER RPM. I WAS ABLE TO MOVE AFTER SHUTTING OFF AND RESTARTING THE VEHICLE. DURING THE SAME DRIVE I ALSO HAD TROUBLE SHIFTING FROM 1ST TO 2ND GEAR WITH HIGH RPM BEFORE A MODERATELY HARD SHIFT WHILE ACCELERATING AFTER A STOP. AMBER CHECK ENGINE, BRAKE, AND ABM LIGHTS ALL LIT. VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY WITH MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR.

TRANSMISSION IS BAD. WHEN I TRY TO ACCELERATE IT DOESN'T GO ANYWHERE AND ITS SKIPPING GEARS AND BUCKING PRIOR TO IT FINALLY NO LONGER DRIVEABLE

WHILE DRIVING IN THE RAIN, THE WIPERS QUIT WORKING. I COULD HEAR THE MOTOR, BUT NO WIPERS

HIGH OIL CONSUMPTION AND LOUD UNKNOWN NOISE FROM ENGINE. THE ENGINE SOUNDS LIKE IT IS GOING TO COME APART WHEN STARTED AND DURING ACCELERATION. THE MILEAGE ON THE CAR IS " 91860 ". THE DEALER PERFORMED AN OIL CONSUMPTION REPORT LAST MAY. SAID THAT IT WAS WITHIN THE REQUIREMENTS SET BY CHEVROLET. ENGINE NOISE HAS INCREASED. I DO NOT FEEL THAT IT IS SAFE TO DRIVE ON INTERSTATE HIGHWAYS.

I PUT THE CAR IN GEAR, I PRESS THE GAS PEDAL AND THE RPMS REV UP BUT MY CAR DOES NOT MOVE

I HAVE BOUGHT THIS CAR MAY 23RD 2018. THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER NEEDED REPLACING AND LIGHT STILL WILL NOT GO OFF AND CODE WILL NOT DELETE, THE O2 SENSORS KEEP GOING OUT (3 TIMES ALREADY) AND THE CAMSHAFT POSITION ACTUATOR SOLENOID VALVE HAS BEEN REPLACED 5 TIMES IN 11 MONTHS. THE OIL CONSUMPTION IS INSANE, I CANNOT MAKE IT TO THE OIL NOTIFICATION THE CAR GIVES ME, WITHOUT PUTTING 3 QTS OF OIL , BEFORE THE NOTIFICATION RECOMMENDS. I HAVE NO OIL LEAK!!!

THE VEHICLE TRANSMISSION GETS STUCK AND DOESN'T ALWAYS SHIFT FROM FIRST TO SECOND GEAR. THIS RESULTS IN BEING UNABLE TO ACCELERATE PAST 20-30 MPH UPON TAKEOFF WHICH IS SCARY AND DANGEROUS ON THE HIGHWAY. MY MECHANIC SHOP HAS INFORMED ME THAT THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE (TCM) NEEDS REPLACING. ON 10/14/2016 THERE WAS A RECALL NOTICE FOR THE TCM ON SEVERAL VEHICLES INCLUDING THE 2010-2013 CHEVROLET EQUINOX.GM'S RECALL NUMBERS FOR THIS ARE 50490 AND 50491.

GAS IN MY OIL CAUSED BY A FAULTY FUEL PUMP. THIS IS CAUSING MY VEHICLE TO RUN POORLY AND CONTINUE TO RUN AFTER THE KEY IS REMOVED. THIS EFFECTS THE VEHICLE WHEN RUNNING PARKED OR RUNNING IN ALL GEAR POSITIONS.

THE HEAT AND AIR WILL NOT WORK FOR LONG AND SHORT PERIODS OF TIME. THERE IS A TICKING SOUND, BUT THE HEAT OR AIR WON'T WORK. PERIODICALLY THE SCREEN OF THE RADIO WILL GO OFF AND REMAIN THAT WAY UNTIL THE HEAT OR AIR DECIDES TO WORK AGAIN. IT'S HARD TO DRIVE IN THE RAIN, AND I WILL HAVE TO ROLL THE WINDOWS DOWN TO CLEAR THE FOG FROM THE WINDSHIELD. THIS HAS HAPPENED OVER THE COURSE OF A YEAR.

THE AC IS GIVING ME ISSUES AND I HAVE SEEN MANY PEOPLE COMPLAIN ABOUT THIS ISSUES WITH THE AC BREAKING BROKE AFTER CERTAIN MILEAGES!

VEHICLE HESITATES TO ACCELERATE WHILE TRYING TO TAKE OFF AFTER BEING STOPPED. I HAVE TO CHANGE THE OIL EVERY THREE WEEKS AND BY A WEEK AND HALF THE OIL IS 1/4 LESS AND REALLY DARK. THERE'S NO VISIBLE LEAKS OR OIL STAINS ON THE DRIVE WAY.

WHILE DRIVING THE CAR ON THE HIGHWAY, IT WILL ACCELERATE REALLY HIGH THEN IT WILL SHIFT AND GO BACK DOWN BUT IT'S DOING IT ALMOST ALL THE TIME KNOW. IT SHOWED NO ERROR CODES WHEN TAKEN IN AND TRANSMISSION FLUID IS GOOD.
