2016 Chevrolet Equinox complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESPOND. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ACCELERATOR WAS DEPRESSED TO THE FLOORBOARD FOR THE VEHICLE TO RESPOND. THE SERVICE STABILI TRAC WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BERGEY'S BUICK GMC (446 HARLEYSVILLE PIKE, SOUDERTON, PA 18964) WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS DIAGNOSED WITH AN UNKNOWN ELECTRICAL WIRING FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE CONTACT THEN TOOK THE VEHICLE TO FLEMINGTON BUICK GMC CADILLAC (211 US-202, FLEMINGTON, NJ 08822) HOWEVER, THE CONTACT WAS UNAWARE IF A DIAGNOSTIC CHECK WAS PERFORMED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. A CASE WAS FILED. NO ASSISTANCE OFFERED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 36,000.

WHILE DRIVING, AT 55MPH MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON WITHOUT WARNING AND THE DASH SHOWED "SERVICE STABILITRAK" AND THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY REDUCED SPEED TO AROUND 30MPH BEFORE I COULD APPLY THE GAS. I IMMEDIATELY TOO THE VEHICLE TO MONRO MUFFLER AND BRAKE FOR SERVICE. WHEN I ARRIVED, I WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD NO OIL. I PERFORMED REGULAR OIL CHANGES ON THIS VEHICLE. THERE WAS NO INDICATION ABOUT LOW OIL PRESSURE, THE VEHICLE DID NOT OVERHEAT. THE ENGINE NOW NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.

RECEIVED LETTER "SOME VEHICLES MAY HAVE 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"

WE RECEIVED A LETTER FROM GM SAYING THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS COULD FAIL, HOWEVER THEY AREN'T FIXING THE ISSUE UNLESS THEY ACTUALLY FAIL. HOW IS THIS A SAFE SITUATION? THEY HAVE A KNOW ISSUE BUT WON'T FIX IT UNLESS I'M DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY IN A STORM AND MY WIPERS FAIL? IS THIS REALLY ACCEPTABLE? ATTACHING A COPY OF THE LETTER.

WHEN AT A STOP LIGHT. PRESS THE GAS, CAR SPUTTERS AND STALLS OUT. I HAVE HAD THIS ISSUES HAPPEN TO ME 6 TIMES.

WHILE DRIVING MY EQUINOX IN THE RAIN THROUGH TOWN, THE WIPERS STOPPED WORKING. I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY PULL OFF THE ROAD AND PUSH THEM DOWN WITHOUT ANY RESISTANCE. THE WIPER MOTOR WAS STILL RUNNING BUT THE WIPER BLADES DID NOT MOVE. I CONTACTED MY LOCAL CHEVY DEALER AND TOLD THEM WHAT HAPPENED. THEY GAVE ME AN APPOINTMENT AND SAID THEIR WAS A RECALL TO REPLACE WIPER TRANSMISSION ARM AND IT WAS COVERED UNDER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. THIS IS THE SECOND TRANSMISSION ARM TO BE REPLACED ON THIS VEHICLE.

THE TIMING BELT ON MY ENGINE WENT OUT RESULTING IN MY VEHICLE DYING WHENEVER MY CAR IDLED LOW. IF I DIDN?T CONSTANTLY GIVE IT SOME GAS, THE CAR WOULD SHUT OFF. THIS WOULD HAPPEN AT RED LIGHTS AND STOP SIGN WHERE I COULDN?T GIVE THE CAR GAS, SO I?D END UP STOPPING IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION WITH INCOMING TRAFFIC. I HAD TO GET MY CAR REPAIRED AND TWO DIFFERENT MECHANICS (ONE AT A CHEVY DEALERSHIP) SAID THAT TIMING BELTS ARE AN ISSUE WITH CHEVY EQUINOX. THIS WAS THE VERY FIRST REPAIR I NEEDED DONE ON MY CAR AND AT ONLY 77,000 MILES. THE MECHANIC AT THE DEALERSHIP SAID I?D MOST LIKELY ONLY GET ANOTHER 50,000 MILES OUT OF THE ENGINE. THAT WOULD BE SHORT OF 130,000 MILES. I THINK IF TIMING BELTS ARE SUCH AND ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL OF VEHICLE THEN THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHILE DRIVING AT 15 MPH, THE VEHICLE HESITATED WITH NO WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. AFTER ARRIVING HOME, THE CONTACT INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AND BECAME AWARE OF AN OIL LEAK UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE FAILURE WAS DUE TO A CLOGGED PCV VALVE. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 104,000.

INITIALLY THE REAR MAIN SEAL WAS LEAKING OR BROKEN; ALL THE OIL DRAINED FROM THE VEHICLE. AFTER SPENDING $992.60 I WAS ADVISED THAT THE TIMING CHANGE AND GUIDES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I'VE HAD THE VVT CELANIDE REPLACED AS WELL AS THE CRANK AND CAM SHAFT SENSORS; THE VVT GEARS AND AN OIL PUMP REBUILD...$2017.60 LATER, MY TRUCK DROVE FOR APPROXIMATELY 3 MILES WHERE IT DIED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I HAVE NOT DRIVEN MY CAR (ASIDE FROM THE 3 MILES) IN NEARLY 2 MONTHS. NOW I'M BEING TOLD THEY THINK IT MAY BE ELECTRICAL. MY TRUCK HAS LESS THAN 100,000 MILES ON IT. I'VE HEARD FROM NUMEROUS GOGGLE SEARCHES THAT GM IS AWARE OF THE ISSUES WITH THIS MOTOR/VEHICLE AND HAS DONE NOTHING TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM. I AM A SINGLE MOTHER OF 4; I BOUGHT THIS TRUCK BRAND NEW TO SAFELY TRANSPORT MY CHILDREN HERE, THERE AND EVERYWHERE. THIS CAR JUST CUT OFF IN THE DEAD OF WINTER COMING OFF THE HIGHWAY...IT LITERALLY STOPPED IN MID ACCELERATION. HOW LONG BEFORE SOME ONE IS SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEED THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING ILLUMINATED WITH AN ABNORMAL SOUND COMING FROM THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN HOME WHERE IT STALLED. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS OIL UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE ON THE GROUND HOWEVER, THERE WAS NO SIGN OF A VISIBLE LEAK. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO (STILLWATER MOTORS CHEVROLET & BUICK 5900 STILLWATER BLVD N, STILLWATER, MN 55082 (651) 439-4333) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE INTAKE MANIFOLD AND PCV VALVE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE BUT NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 68,000.

WINDSHIELD WIPERS IN FRONT STOPPED WORKING WHILE DRIVING IN WET WEATHER

PCV VALVE FROZE CAUSING REAR MAIN SEAL LEAK. CAR BEGAN TO LEAK EXCESSIVE OIL.

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION WITHOUT ANY WARNING LIGHTS DROVE CAR WITH NO OIL IN ENGINE

MY COMPLAINT & SAFETY CONCERN RELATES TO THE DEEP WINDOW TINTING THAT IS ALLOWED IN MANY OF THE SOUTHERN STATES AND IT'S IMPACT ON ACCIDENTS -- PEDESTRIAN, BICYCLISTS, AND OTHER MOTORISTS (MOTORCYCLES INCLUDED). THE AMOUNT OF ALLOWABLE TINTING HAS TO IMPACT PEOPLE'S SAFETY -- ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT, DURING RAINSTORMS, FOG, ETC. WITH MORE MOTORISTS ON THE ROADS, I SHOULD THINK IT'S TIME TO REVISIT THE TINTING LAWS. THANK YOU!

ON DECEMBER 10TH, 2019, AS I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK ON INTERSTATE 694 IN ARDEN HILLS MN, THE ENGINE STARTED MAKING A GRINDING NOISE, AND THEN EVENTUALLY STALLED. NO WARNING LIGHTS INDICATING A PROBLEM EVER CAME ON. I HAD IT TOWED TO THE NEAREST CHEVROLET DEALERSSHIP, AND 2 DAYS LATER WAS INFORMED BY THEM THAT THE ENGINE HAD RUN OUT OF OIL, AND I WOULD NEED A NEW ENGINE THAT WOULD COST ME $8500. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET, I DISCOVERED THAT EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS MOTOR, THE 2.4L ECOTEC. THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ON THE INTERNET. A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT FILED AGAINST GM RESULTED IN A $42 MILLION JUDGEMENT AGAINST GM, BUT IT ONLY COVERED MODEL YEARS 2010-2013. A 2ND CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT HAS BEEN FILED AGAINST GM TO COVER MODEL YEARS 2014-2017, THIS LAWSUIT IS STILL WORKING IT'S WAY THROUGH THE COURTS. GM HAS REFUSED TO REPAIR MY VEHICLE AT THEIR EXPENSE, EVEN THOUGH THIS IS A WIDELY KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THIS ENGINE. INFORMATION ON THESE LAWSUITS CAN BE FOUND AT WWW.CLASSACTION.ORG, AND WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM. I AM ASKING THAT GM REPAIR MY VEHICLE AT THEIR EXPENSE, NOTHING MORE, NOTHING LESS.

VEHICLE WAS PARKED,STARTED FINE BACKED UP OUT OF SPACE. WHEN PULLING FORWARD THE WARNING BUSSER CAME ON AND DISPLAY READ STABIL TRACK. PULLED TO SIDE OF ROAD AND TURNED OFF ENGINE AFTER 2MIN. I RESTARTED ENGINE, THE WARNING STAYED ON. DROVE ABOUT 3 MILES TO DEALERSHIP,WAS TOLD TO DRIVE IT AS APPT NOT AVAILBLE TILL TUES. ENGINE SLOWED DOWN COULD ONLY GET TO 35MPH. AFTER ANOTHER 5MILES IT STARTED WORKING SO WE WERE ABLE TO GET HOME. I HAVE DONE ALL REQUIRED MATENIACE HAVE 69,000 MILES ON IT, NOW. IF THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM WHEN I REACH THIS MILAGE, WHAT IS MY RECOURSE?

WIPERS SUDDENLY STOP WORKING WHEN DRIVING

THE TRANSFER CASE FAILED WHILE THE SUV WAS IN MOTION ON A CITY STREET WITHIN A WEEK AFTER AN OIL CHANGE / TRANSMISSION FLUID FLUSH & FILL SERVICE AT THE DEALERSHIP. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO ASK ABOUT THE PART AND IT IS ON BACK ORDER SO, THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE.

I BOUGHT MY CAR BRAND NEW FROM THE DEALERSHIP AND IT'S BEEN CAUSING ISSUES FROM DAY ONE. AT FIRST, IT WAS THE BLUETOOTH, THEN IT WAS MY WINDSHIELD WIPER, THEN MY CAMSHAFT, AND NOW MY CA FEELS LIKE THE TRANSMISSION IS GOING OUT. I HAVE DONE ALL THE REPAIRS WITH THE DEALERSHIP, HOWEVER MY LAST SERVICE MADE ME NOT TRUST THEM NO MORE. THEY CLAIMED TO HAVE REPLACED THE CAMSHAFT, BUT MY CAR STILL DRIVES THE SAME WAY AND EVEN WORSE NOW.

WHILE DRIVING EARLY IN THE MORNING TO WORK IT WAS DARK OUTSIDE AS TIME HAS NOT CHANGED YET ABOUT 45 DEGREES. I DROPPED MY DAUGHTER TO ELEMENTARY SCHOOL ABOUT 10 MINUTES PRIOR AND IT WAS RAINING THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING WHEN I TURNED THE CORNER ONTO TWO WAY HIGHWAY AND ACCELERATED ABOUT 25-30 MPH. THE WINDSHIELD WAS NOT VISIBLE AND I WAS UNABLE TO GET OFF OF ROAD FOR ABOUT TWO MINUTES, NEARLY CAUSED HEAD ON COLLISION AND SIDE SWIPED CARS. I HAD TO DRIVE AND STOP OR PULL OVER IN A MEDIAN TO CLEAR WINDSHIELD AND EVEN HANG OUT DRIVER WINDOW TO PULL THE WIPERS IN ORDER TO GET TO A SECURE PLACE. CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP STATED WINDSHIELD WIPER TRANSMISSION, LATER CALLED TO SEE IF IT WOULD BE COVERED AND HE TOLD THEM IT WAS FASTENER OR BALL JOINT TO KEEP IN PLACE CORRODED AND IT WOULD NOT BE COVERED. THE COST IS ABOUT $565 TO BE REPLACED. THEN THE CHEVY SERVICE REP STATED THEY DONT HAVE THE PART TO BE REPLACED, WOULD TAKE ABOUT A COUPLE OF DAYS BECAUSE OF GM ISSUES WITH STRIKE. AS WELL AS CHEVY DOESN'T HAVE ANY LOANER CARS WHILE MY EQUINOX STAYED AT THE DEALER. IT WAS ALSO RAIN EXPECTED AGAIN DURING THE DAY. TRULY UNACCEPTABLE WHEN THERE HAVE BEEN PRECIOUS ISSUES WITH WINDSHIELD WIPERS.

ON 10/7/19 WHILE DRIVING MY 2016 CHEVY EQUINOX HOME FROM WORK ON THE HIGHWAY, IT BEGAN TO RAIN TORRENTIALLY. I TURNED MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS ON HIGH. SUDDENLY THE LEFT DRIVERS SIDE WIPER FLUNG TO THE LEFT RIGHT OFF OF THE WINDOW HANGING BY THE DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW AND MIRROR. I WAS LEFT WITH JUST ONE WIPER IN NEAR DARKNESS AND POURING RAIN 10 MILES FROM HOME. IT WAS PRETTY SCARY. ONCE HOME, MY HUSBAND AN ELECTRICIAN LOOKED AND ADVISED ME THAT ONE OF THE PLASTIC CONNECTORS ON THE WIPER TRANSMISSION JUST CAME APART. HE FEELS IT WAS POORLY ENGINEERED. NEEDLESS TO SAY, IT CREATED A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. IT MY SAFETY IN JEOPARDY AS WELL AS THE PEOPLE AROUND ME. NOTE: I ONLY HAVE A LITTLE OVER 50,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE.

PASSENGER AIR BAG ALARM GOES OFF WHEN SEAT IS EMPTY AND OCCASIONALLY THE PASSENGER AIR BAG TURNS OFF WHILE AN ADULT PASSENGER IS IN THE SEAT DUE TO A FAULTY CONNECTOR. THIS HAPPENS SPORADICALLY DURING ALL TYPES OF DRIVING, IDLING OR WHILE PARKED. THE CONCERN THAT DURING AN IMPACT THE FAULTY CONNECTOR WILL CAUSE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG TO NOT DEPLOY WHILE A PASSENGER IS IN THE SEAT IS HIGHLY WORRY SOME AND EVEN THOUGH CHEVY IS AWARE OF THE CONDITION, THEY WON'T RECALL OR FIX THE ISSUE. TIMING CHAIN FAILURE CAN CAUSE SUDDEN UNEXPECTED ENGINE SHUTOFF WHILE DRIVING CAUSING A LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND SUDDEN STALLING DURING ACCELERATION AND DECELERATION LEADING TO POSSIBLE COLLISIONS AS THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF WITH NO WARNING. CHEVY IS AWARE OF THE TIMING CHAIN ISSUES IN THEIR 2.4L ENGINES AND YET HASN'T ISSUED A RECALL EVEN THOUGH CATROPHIC ENGINE DAMAGE AND PROBABLY LOSS OF LIFE DUE TO LOSS OF CONTROL COLLISIONS. ENGINE SHUTOFF DUE TO CHAIN STRETCH OR FAILURE CAN OCCUR AS ANY TIME DURING DRIVING OR ENGINE RUNNING CONDITIONS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS BECAME INOPERABLE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT CALLED HANK GRAFF CHEVROLET (800 N STATE RD, DAVISON, MI 48423, (810) 412-0547), BUT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 134,000.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE, IT WILL RANDOMLY TURN OFF. I WILL THEN HAVE TO PLACE THE VEHICLE IN PARK, TURN OFF THE VEHICLE, AND RESTART IT IN ORDER TO BEGIN DRIVING AGAIN. THIS HAPPENED WHILE TURNING.

DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY IN THE RAIN AND THE WINDSHIELD WIPER STOPPED WORKING. YOU CAN HEAR THE WIPER MOTOR RUNNING, BUT THE WIPERS DO NOT MOVE

ENGINE BURNS OIL... SUV ACTUALLY SHUT OFF ON ME WHILE DRIVING AND WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE SHOP, IT WAS FOUND TO HAVE NO OIL. LUCKILY IT SHUT OFF WHEN I WAS BY MYSELF WITHOUT MY FAMILY WHILE AT A RED LIGHT AND NOT WHEN I WAS DRIVING. THIS IS A KNOWN GM ISSUE WITH OLDER EQUINOX'S AND NOTHING HAS BEEN CORRECTED. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED BC OF THIS ISSUE! IT IS WELL DOCUMENTED THAT A LOT OF OTHER EQUINOX OWNERS ARE DEALING WITH THE SAME ISSUE THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN CORRECTED! GM HAS FAILED THEIR CUSTOMERS AND IS ACTING NEGLIGENT!

TAKATA RECALL MY WIPERS JUST STOPPED WORKING IN THE MIDDLE OF POURING RAIN YOU CAN HEAR THE MOTOR WORKING BUT WIPERS JUST STOPPED DRIVING IN THE CITY BRINGING THE KIDS HOME FROM SCHOOL CITY STREET TRAVELING 25-29 MPH CHECKED TO FUSE IT WAS SOK WE HAD TO PULL OVER AND WAIT THEN GET A UBER IT WAS SCARY!!!!

WINDSHIELD WIPERS SUDDENLY STOPED WORKING. I CAN HEAR THE MOTOR RUNNING, BUT THE WIPERS DON'T MOVE.

DRIVING ON THE NJ TURNPIKE JANUARY 22 2019 FREEZING COLD OUT DAY 15' AND MY CAR JUST DIES. I CAME TO A ROLLING STOP ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. TRIED STARTING CAR AND NOTHING, THEN I HEAR A GRINDING NOISE AS I TURN THE KEY, GET OUT AND OPEN THE HOOD. I TURN KEY AGAIN AND I HEAR THIS GRINDING NOISE AGAIN. NO WARNING LIGHTS NO INDICATORS NOTHING. CALL AAA BUT THEY CAN'T PICK ME UP ON THE TURNPIKE NEEDS TO BE A SEPARATE TOW TRUCK COMPANY. AFTER 45 MINUTES FREEZING IN THE CAR THE TOW TRUCK GUY SHOWS UP. TAKES A LOOK AT THE TRUCK CHECK OIL AND SAYS I HAVE NO OIL. TURNED KEY AND DASH DID NOT SHOW ANY OIL LIGHTS LIT. LOOKED AT THE BACK OF THE TRUCK AND THERE WAS OIL ALL OVER IT SEE PICS. HAD TO GET TOWED TO YARD THEN CALLED AAA TO TAKE ME TO ELKINS CHEVY. ELKIN'S CHEVY LOOKED AT IT AND SAID THE PCV VALVE FROZE CAUSING THE REAR MAIN SEAL TO BREAK CAUSING ENGINE TO LOSE ALL OIL AND CEASE UP WITH POSSIBLE PIECES IN THE TRANSMISSION. NO WARNING LIGHTS OR SENSORS LIT UP AT ALL STILL. DEALER SAID I WAS OUT OF WARRANTY 88,575 MILES SO I WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR FIXING. NEW ENGINE $6,000 USED $4,500 PLUS WHAT EVER OTHER DAMAGE TO THE TRANSMISSION, PVC AND CASE. ESTIMATED 7,000 TO 9000. TO FIX THE TRUCK WAS ONLY 2 YEARS OLD AND ALWAYS GOT SERVICED OIL CHANGES ECT. I BOUGHT ANOTHER EQUINOX 2019 AND WHILE TRANSFERRING MY STUFF FROM 1 TRUCK TO ANOTHER SERVICE GUY SAID THIS A COMMON THING WITH THIS ECOTEC ENGINE AND CHEVY IS AWARE. I WENT HOME AND GOOGLE WHAT HAPPENED AND SURE ENOUGH THEY HAVE A CLASS A

I HIT A HOLE AND MY PASSENGER FRONT TIRE AND RIM WERE DAMAGED AND I COULD NOT MOVE CAR, HAD CAR TOWED. THE DEALERSHIP CLAIMED THE ONLY DAMAGE WAS TO THE WHEEL, RIM AND NEEDED AN ALIGNMENT. TWO DAYS LATER FRONT DRIVERS SIDE MAKING A LOUD NOISE, SHAKING WHEN DRIVING AND NOTICED IT WAS LEAKING A FLUID. RETURNED TO DEALERSHIP, RESUBMITTED TO INSURANCE COMPANY. INSURANCE WOULD NOT PAY STAYED WEAR AND TEAR. THEY FOUND PLAY IN FRONT LINKS. NEED TO REPLACE BOTH FRONT STABILIZER LINKS , LEFT FRONT AXLE SEAL LEAKING, REPLACED AXLE SEAL AND AXLE. MY CAR HAD 29000 MILES AND REGULAR MAINTENANCE AND TIRE ROTATION. NOT UNDERSTANDING WHY THIS IS WEAR AND TEAR ESPECIALLY 1 WEEK AFTER BUMPER TO BUMPER EXPIRED AND CAR WAS IN FOR SERVICE AND CHECK TWO WEEKS PRIOR. EITHER CHEVY OR INSURANCE COMPANY IS A FRAUD!!! CAN PROVIDE PICTURES AND DOCUMENTATION.

WHILE DRIVING IN POURING RAIN THE WIPERS QUIT WORKING. THEY QUIT ABRUPTLY WHILE ON LEFT OF WINDSHIELD AND ON FULL POWER. COULD NOT SEE TO DRIVE ON 4 LANE DIVIDED HIGHWAY. WAS ABLE TO SLOWLY DRIVE TO A WIDE BERM AND STOP. TURNED WIPERS OFF AND ON , THEY WOULD NOT WORK. HAD TO WAIT ON ROADSIDE FOR RAIN TO PASS. I KNOW THERE WAS A RECALL ON 2012 AND 2014 MODELS , BUT NOT YET ON THE 2016.

THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS SUDDENLY STOPPED WORKING IN THE MIDDLE OF A STORM WHILE DRIVING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH IN POURING RAIN, THE FRONT WINDSHIELD WIPERS SUDDENLY STOPPED WORKING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. NEMINCHT CHEVROLET (1550 CASSAT AVENUE, JACKSONVILLE, FL) AND THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 57,000.

THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES IN THE PAST. THIS HAPPENED ON A VERY HOT AND SUNNY SUMMER DAY. THE WINDOWS WERE ROLLED DOWN AND THE A/C WAS OFF. THE RADIO STARTED TO LOOP A SONG THAT WAS PLAYING. I WAS UNABLE TO MUTE IT, TURN IT DOWN, AND TURN IT OFF. THE INFOTAINMENT BUTTONS WERE DOING NOTHING. I TURNED ON THE A/C AND THE INTERIOR COOLED DOWN. THE RADIO FUNCTIONED AS NORMAL ONCE IT WAS COLD. THIS HAS HAPPENED IN THE PAST AS WELL. ONE TIME, IT WAS DURING WINTER AND THE HEAT WAS ON. THE RADIO MALFUNCTIONED. THE HEAT WAS TURNED OFF. AFTER A FEW MINUTES, IT WENT BACK TO NORMAL.

I WAS DRIVING IN VERY HEAVY RAIN ON THE HIGHWAY DURING A TIME WHERE THERE WAS LOW VISIBILITY AND MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING. I HAD 3 CHILDREN IN THE CAR WITH ME (2 WERE IN A CAR SEATS). ONCE I WAS ABLE TO GET OVER TO THE SHOULDER I CALLED ONSTAR/ CHEVY ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE ONLY WAY THEY COULD ASSIST WAS TO TOW MY CAR TO A DEALERSHIP WHICH IN REALITY WASN'T POSSIBLE BECAUSE THE 3 KIDS AND I WERE NOT GOING TO FIT IN THE TRUCK WITH THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER. SO THE KIDS AND I WAITED IN THE CAR ON THE SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY DURING HEAVY TRAFFIC UNTIL THE RAIN STOPPED SO THAT I COULD DRIVE MY CAR TO A SAFER PLACE..

CAR DIED WHILE IN REVERSE, CAR PLACED IN PARK THEN TURNED OFF. THEN TURNED BACK ON PLACED IN DRIVE THEN CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. WHILE DRIVING THE CAR IT JUST SHUTS OFF. THE RPM GOES TO ZERO AND SHUTS OFF.

WHILE DRIVING DURING A HEAVY RAIN FALL, MY WIPERS JUST STOPPED WORKING. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND WAIT ABOUT 20 MINUTES FOR THE RAIN TO CLEAR SO I COULD DRIVE HOME. VERY UNSAFE. CHEVY NEEDS TO PUT A RECALL OUT FOR THIS AND FIX IT.

WIPERS STOPPED WORKING IN HEAVY DOWN POURS ALMOST CAUSED A SERIOUS ACCIDENT ON THE INTERSTATE.

DRIVING 75 MPH IN POURING RAIN AND WINDSHIELD WIPERS JUST STOPPED. MADE IT TO SIDE OF ROAD BUT HAD TO BE TOWED HOME DUE TO WIPERS STOPPING

PVC TUBE FROZE CAUSE REAR SEAL TO BREAK CAUSING ENGINE TO LOSE ALL OIL. LUCKILY I WAS PARKED AND NOTICED THE OIL. NO WARNING LIGHTS OR SENSORS LIT UP. WHEN TALKING TO DEALER AND OTHERS MANY EQUINOX THIS YEAR HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE, EVEN THO GENERAL MOTORS IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE IT WAS STILL MY RESPONSIBILITY TO PAY 1800.00 TO FIX IT

I WAS TRAVELING IN INCLEMENT WEATHER (RAINSTORM) AND SUDDENLY THE WINDSHIELD WIPER LINKAGE FAILED, CAUSING FAILURE OF THE DRIVERS SIDE WIPER. I WAS TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS (55+ MPH) AT THE TIME ON I 270 IN COLUMBUS, OH. INSTANTLY LOST VISIBILITY AND LUCKILY WAS ABLE TO NAVIGATE TO THE BERM WITHOUT BEING INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. TRAFFIC WAS HEAVY AT THE TIME. THIS IS THE SECOND CHEVROLET EQUINOX THAT I EXPERIENCED THIS SAME ISSUE WITH, THE PRIOR VEHICLE WAS A 2013 EQUINOX. THIS ALSO HAPPENED TO TWO OF MY CO-WORKERS WHO DRIVE CHEVY EQUINOXES.

THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS FOR OUR COMPANY VEHICLE (2016 CHEVROLET EQUINOX) HAD PARTIALLY FAILED ONE DAY PRIOR TO BOTH WINDSHIELD WIPERS FAILING. YOU CANNOT USE THEM AT ALL, EVEN WHEN TRYING TO RUN THEM, NOTHING HAPPENS. NO OTHER PREVIOUS ISSUE HAS OCCURRED TO CAUSE THE WIPERS FROM FAILING.

ON MARCH 15, 2019 MY RADIATOR CRACKED/BUSTED AND THE ENGINE OVERHEATED. THE MECHANIC HAD TO REPLACE THE RADIATOR AND HE SAID THAT SHOULDN'T HAPPEN TO A 3 YEAR OLD CAR (54,358 MILES). HE SAID MAYBE THE GAUGE STEEL IS THINNER THAN IT USED TO BE. THE ENGINE OVERHEATED (RADIATOR CRACKED) WHILE I WAS DRIVING - BUT WHEN I GOT HOME AFTER DROPPING OFF THE CAR AT THE MECHANIC I NOTICED LEAKING FLUID ALL OVER THE GARAGE FLOOR (FROM BEFORE I DROVE IT).

DRIVING DOWN FREEWAY. CAR STOPPED WORKING NO WARNING LIGHT OR WARNING. BARLEY GOT IT OFF THE ROAD AND OUT OF TRAFFICE. ENDS UP IT THE REAR MANTLE FOLD WHICH IN TURN MADE THE ENGINE STOP WORKING. VEHICLES NEEDS WHOLE NEW ENGINE.
