2007 Chevrolet Equinox

I HAVENT HAD THIS CAR 6 MONTHS WHEN THE STABITACK IS MESSSING UP NOT ON JUST MINE I'VE TALKED TO MANY WHO OWN THESES CARS SOME ARE 08 AND 09 AND 07 THATS A BIT MUCH WHY IS THERE SUCH A PROBLEM, MANY CANT COMPLAIN THEY DONT KNOW WHERE TO GO FOR HELP. I STUMBBLED ACROSS THIS SITE....THIS IS A BIG DEAL I'M PUTTING THIS SITE ON FACEBOOK SO PEOPLE CAN COMPLAIN. GM NEEDS TO DO SOMTHING THIS IS EXPENISIVE FOR FOLKS TO REPAIR WHEN THERE ON A FIXED INCOME.IVE AWAYS DROVE A FORD . THIS IS MAKING ME RECONSIDER MY DECISION.. AND I CANT KEEP A STARTER ON THIS CAR IVE HAD 3 PUT ON IN THE LAST 2 WEEKS... WHATS THE DEAL? THIS CAR AND OTHERS ARE A AREAL PAIN I CAN PROVIDE YOU WITH MANY ON A LIST THAT HAS THIS CAR AND THE PROBLEMS AND WHAT DROP DOWN BOX??

I'M NOT SURE IF I HAD WRITTEN YOU ALREADY , ITS COMPLICATED, BUT HERE GOES. I BOUGHT A 2007 CHEVY EQUINOX IN AUGUST 9, 2014 . AUGUST 29, 2007 IS WHEN THE FIRST OF MANY PROBLEMS STARTED. THE STABILITY A LIGHT CAME ON,AT THE EXACT TIME THE LIGHTS CAME ON THE CAR WOULD SLOW WAY, WAY DOWN IT DIDN'T EVEN REGISTER ON HOW MANY MILES I WAS GOING THAT'S HOW SLOW THE CAR MOVED, THEN IT CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP. I WAITED A FEW SECONDS AND TRIED TO START THE CAR AND IT DID START. THIS KEPT HAPPENING ABOUT 4 OR 5 TIMES, THEN ON DECEMBER 12, 20014 IT DID IT AGAIN, BUT THIS TIME IT WOULD NOT START UP AGAIN. I HAD TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED, I HAD ALL OF MY 10 YEAR OLD CHRISTMAS GIFTS STILL IN THE CAR. THE GARAGE HAD MY CAR FROM DEC. 12 THRU TO MARCH 20, 2015, THEN IT WAS TOWED TO ANOTHER GARAGE, THE FIRST GARAGE COULD NOT LOCATE THE PROBLEM. OK, THE SECOND GARAGE HAD IT, THEY CHARGED ME $160.00 I GOT THE CAR BACK ON APRIL 10, 2015 I DROVE IT FOR FOUR DAYS AND IT DID IT AGAIN, NOW THIS CAR HAS DIED IN THE MIDDLE OF INTERSECTIONS BEFORE AND IT DID IT AGAIN ON APRIL 13 2015. I WAS STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF A VERY BUSY INTERSECTION, THERE WAS THIS HUGE DUMP TRUCK HEADED RIGHT FOR ME, I WAS SCARED TO DEATH, I ALMOST ALWAYS HAVE MY GRANDCHILDREN WITH ME THANK GOD THEY WEREN'T THIS TIME. WHEN MY CAR WAS MOVING VERY SLOWLY THE STABILITRAC LIGHT DID NOT COME ON, AFTER A COUPLE OF MINUTES AFTER THE FACT THEY DID COME ON. TWO MEN PUSHED ME OUT FROM THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION. THERE WAS SMOKE COMING FROM THE HOOD OF THE CAR. THE FIRST THING I THOUGHT OF IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN THE RADIATOR, BUT COME TO FIND OUT IT WAS NOT THE RADIATOR. I HAD THE CAR TOWED AGAIN TO A DIFFERENT GARAGE, THEY LOOKED IT OVER VERY WELL AND CALLED ME TO TELL ME THERE'S A WIRE THAT CAUGHT ON FIRE AND IT BURNED. *TR

TRANSMISSION WILL NOT SHIFT INTO THIRD GEAR WITHOUT LETTING OFF THE GAS, VALVE BODY SOLENOID PROBLEM. REAR WIPER MOTOR BAD, IGNITION GETS STUCK ON WITH KEY IN, HAVE TO PUT GEAR SHIFTER IN AND OUT OF GEAR MULTIPLE TIMES TO GET KEY OUT. ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL OFF LIGHTS COMES ON AFTER JUST A FEW SECONDS OF VEHICLE BEING STARTED. ALTERNATOR WAS WHINING EXTREMELY LOUD, HAD TO REPLACE. HEATER BLEND DOOR BROKEN, CANNOT HAVE HOT AIR FOR WINTER OR COLD A/C IN SUMMER. SOUNDS LIKE WATER RUSHING THROUGH DASH BOARD WHEN CAR IS STARTED. VERY HEAVY ODOR OF ANTIFREEZE INSIDE CAR WHEN HEAT IS ON. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE STABILITRACK WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED INTERMITTENTLY. THE CONTACT HAD TO USE EXCESSIVE FORCE TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE POWER STEERING MODULE FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALER INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14E044000 (STEERING). THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 76,554.

I HAVE MULTIPLE ISSUES CURRENTLY AND THEY ALL SEEM TO BE LISTED ON OTHER COMPLAINTS. 1. THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW HAS COMPLETELY STOPPED WORKING. IT SEEMS TO HAVE BECOME DISCONNECTED TO THE MOTOR AS I CAN HEAR THE MOTOR GOING UP AND DOWN WITHIN THE DOOR. 2. STABILITRAK WARNING AND ENGINE LIGHT ARE CONSTANTLY TURNING ON AND OFF. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON AND OFF OVER THE PAST YEAR OR SO BUT THE DEALERSHIP COULD NOT GET A READING FROM THE COMPUTER. NOW IT HAS BEEN ON FOR THE PAST 2 WEEKS CONSTANTLY 3. THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE IN THE INSTRUMENT PANEL DOES NOT WORK. TOOK IT INTO THE DEALER AND THEY REPLACED THE THERMOSTAT A FEW DAYS LATER THE GAUGE WENT HAYWIRE AGAIN. IT GETS WORSE WHEN I FILL UP WITH GAS AND TENDS TO MIRROR THE GAS GAUGE READING MOST OF THE TIME. 4. THE KEY WILL NOT COME OUT OF THE IGNITION WHEN TURNING OFF THE CAR. THIS IS EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK, TURN THE KEY OFF, THE ENGINE TURNS OFF BUT THE KEY WILL NOT COME OUT OF THE IGNITION. HAVE TO TURN CAR BACK ON, PUT IT IN AND OUT OF PARK, TURN THE WHEEL, BACK UP, DRIVE FORWARD OR JUST SIT AND WAIT A FEW MINUTES AND IT COMES OUT. 5. OCCASIONALLY THE ELECTRONICS GO CRAZY - THE TURN SIGNALS WON'T WORK AND THE RADIO SHUTS DOWN. IT MAKES A SOUND WHEN IT DOES THIS AS WELL, LIKE A CLICKING NOISE BUT IT ONLY LASTS FOR A FEW SECONDS AND I CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT CAUSES IT. *TR

DRIVING ON A BUSY HIGHWAY AND CAR LOST POWER ALTHOUGH DID NOT SHUT OFF (THIS TIME). THE STABILITRAC LIGHT AND THE REDUCED ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THE VEHICLE IS AGAIN AT THE CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP (5TH TIME SINCE APRIL 2014) FOR THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM AND IT LOOKS LIKE THE THROTTLE BOTTLE IS (AGAIN) BEING REPLACED. THE SERVICE MANAGER AND TECHNICIANS INDICATED THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT THE "REAL PROBLEM" IS, AND GOOD CHANCE THE VEHICLE WILL DEVELOP THE SAME ISSUE AGAIN. THIS IS A VERY UNSAFE VEHICLE CONDITION, AND I WOULD LIKE TO SELL THE CAR BUT AFRAID TO PUT SOMEONE ELSE IN DANGER. *TR

I CONTACTED GM ABOUT THE ISSUES,THEY MADE AN APPOINTMENT AT A DEALER,WHEN I TOOK IT THEIR THE DEALER REFUSED MAKING UP EVERY EXCUSE HE COULD,CALLED GM SEVERAL TIMES BUT THEY SAY THESE ITEMS WOULD BE FIXED ,IT IS ALL SCREWED UP,GM DOES NOT GIVE A [XXX] ABOUT THESE HAZARDS,PROBLEMS STILL EXIST,REFERENCE NUMBER IS [XXX],THEIR HAVE BEEN RECALLS EXCEPT FOR OHIO,GIVE ME A BREAK,THAT IS THE STUPIDEST THING SINCE THE VEHICLE HAS SO MANY RECALLS...........................TAIL GATE DOOR DOES NOT OPEN,MOTOR IS NOT WORKING,POTENTIAL HAZARD. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
