2015 Chevrolet Equinox complaints

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

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.
