2015 Chevrolet Equinox complaints

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.

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 C

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, B

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 TR

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.
