2007 Chevrolet Equinox

PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT SHOWS NOT ON ALL THE TIME-WITH OR WITHOUT PASSENGER IN SEAT. MESSAGE TO SERVICE AIRBAGS ON ALL THE TIME. NOW SEATBELT LIGHT IS FLASHING EVEN WHEN IN USE. SERVICE STABILTRACK LIGHT COMES ON AND OFF. READING ALL THE OTHER COMMENTS I SEE THIS IS A COMMON COMPLAINT. RECENTLY HAD MY CAR IN TO REPLACE FUEL PUMP THAT WAS A RECALL FOR OTHERS BUT A "SPECIAL REPAIR" FOR MY CAR. TOLD DEALER ABOUT PROBLEMS WITH AIRBAG AND STABILITRAK AND WAS TOLD IT WOULD COST ABOUT $150.00 EACH TO DO THE DIAGNOSTIC TESTS. WHAT IS IT GOING TO TAKE FOR THESE PROBLEMS TO BECOME RECALLS FOR ALL THE AFFECTED CARS?

OVER THE PAST FEW DAYS, MY STABILITRAK LIGHT HAS COME ON AND OFF WHILE DRIVING OR JUST SITTING IN THE CAR. PULLING INTO MY DRIVEWAY TODAY I NOTICED THAT THE LIGHT CAME BACK ON FOR THE STABILITRAK. I PROCEEDED TO DRIVE AND THEN SUDDENLY IT BECAME INCREASING HARD TO MANEUVER MY STEERING WHEEL ALMOST TO THE POINT WHERE IT FELT AS IF IT HAD LOCKED UP ON ME. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR BACK HOME BUT AS I WAS DRIVING I NOTICE MY AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AND WILL NOT GO OFF AT ALL. AFTER MAKING IT BACK TO INTO MY DRIVEWAY I CUT OFF THE IGNITION WAITED A FEW MINUTES AND TURNED THE CAR BACK ON TO SEE IF THIS WOULD HELP EITHER OF THE PROBLEMS BUT TO NO AVAIL. I HAVE NOW TAKEN THE CAR TO MY LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALER AND THEY HAVE INFORMED ME THAT THEY HAVE SEN THIS ISSUE WITH A NUMBER OF EQUINOX AND IT IS INDEED AN ISSUE MY STABILITRAK.

2997 CHEVY EQUINOX - THE CAR WAS IN MOTION AROUND 60MPH, WHILE DRIVING THE BRAKES ACTIVATE BY THEMSELVES AND THE ABS, STABILITY TRACK LIGHTS COME ON. THE VEHICLE STALLED IN THE INTERSTATE SEVERAL TIMES. THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE WHEN I ACCELERATE. IT SEEMS AT IF ALL THE BRAKES ARE ACTIVE AND NOT ALLOWING THE CAR TO MOVE. AFTER ALMOST GETTING CLIPPED BY A SEMI I HAD TO THINK FAST. I READ THE MANUAL AND FOUND THE ABS FUSES. IN ORDER TO MOVE THE CAR I HAVE TO REMOVE THE ABS MOTOR FUSE AND THE ABS SYSTEM FUSE. THIS BYPASSES THE SYSTEM AND THE CAR IS ABLE TO MOVE. I HAVE TAKEN TO A MECHANIC AND THEY REPLACED DEALER PARTS ABS MODULE AND ABS MODULATOR "MOTOR". I PAID $1800 FOR THE REPAIR. CAR HAS SAME ISSUE AS I DROVE A WAY FROM SHOP. WHEN IT STALLED AFTER REPAIR I REMOVED THE FUSES AGAIN AND DROVE IT BACK TO THE SHOP FOR REPAIR AGAIN. SHOP SAYS THESE PARTS REPLACED ARE DEALER PARTS AND THEY WILL REPLACE AGAIN WITH NEW PARTS. CALLED THE CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP ON THIS AND THEY MENTION THAT THERE IS NO ISSUE/RECALL WITH THIS AT THE TIME. THE CAR HAS $80K MILES AND HAS BEEN AT THE SHOP FOR TWO WEEKS STILL UNDER DIAGNOSTICS TO TRY TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE. FRUSTRATED!
