2007 Chevrolet Equinox

NHTSA CAMP # 07V344000, SEAT BELT SENSOR, NHTSA CAMP. # 07V242000 WINDSHIELD MOUNT I HAVE A 2007 CHEVY EQUINOX, MY WINDSHIELD IS LEAKING, AND MY PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG KEEPS GOING ON AND OFF DEPENDING ON HOW SOMEBODY SITS IN THE SEAT. I WENT TO GOOGLE AND LOOKED UP THE RECALLS FOR MY VEHICLE. AND THOSE 2 RECALLS LISTED AT THE TOP ARE 2 OF THE PROBLEMS IM HAVING WITH MY EQUINOX. I CALLED CHEVY CORPORATE AND THEY TOLD ME MY VEHICLE VIN NUMBER IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. IF MY VEHICLE IS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS AS THE ONE WITH THE RECALL, THEY SHOULD EXPAND THE RECALL TO COVER THE REST OF THE VEHICLES AFFECTED.

THE SUNFOOF DRAIN TUBES LEAK INTO THE INTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE CAUSING FLOODING OF FLOORBOARDS AS WELL AS HEADLINER. THE WATER DRIPS FROM VISORS/HEADLINER ONTO ELECTRONICAL COMPONANTS AND DOME LIGHT, AN OBVIOUS HAZORD. DEALER SHOWED US THE PROBLEM, BUT CLAIMS THEY HAVE NEVER SEEN IT CAUSE FLOODING. THIS PROBLEM IS WIDESPREAD ON THE INTERNET AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. OTHER GM MODELS HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THE SAME ISSUE. WE INFORMED GM OF THE PROBLEM AND THEY WERE NOT WILLING TO STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME IT RAINS STATIONARY OR IN MOTION.

I GOT THIS CAR FROM FREDERI K AUTO CENTER IN MARCH. EVER SINCE THEN I HAD PROBLEMS. I TOLD THEM I LET THEM. KNKW ABOUT THEM AND THEY ALWAYS SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH IT. THE ONE TIME THEY WERE SUPOOSE TO FIX SOMETHING THEY HAD THE CAR FOR TWO DAYS AND RHEY PUT TAPE ALL OVER THE HOSES RO STOP THE LEAKS. THEY ALSO FAILED THE MD INSPECTION CONSIDERING MY WIRES ARE MELTED TOGETHER AND MY IGNITION DOESNT WORK RIGHT WHICH WOULDNT HAVE PASS. THEN THEY REPO IT WHEN I WQSNT LATE ON MY PAYEMNT BECAUSE I SAID I WANT IT FIXED SINXE IT WAS SOLS THAT WAY OR I WILL FILE A COMPALINT. EVERYTHING QAS ILLEGAL THATBTHEY DID.

WHILE DRIVING EITHER ON CITY OR FREEWAY THE CAR STARTED SHAKING, JERKING, AND VIBRATING REALLY BADLY WHEN APPLIED PRESSURE TO THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT GAIN SPEED, INSTEAD IT WOULD SLOW DOWN AND IT FELT LIKE GAS WAS NOT GOING TROUGH. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. SOMETIMES THE KEY WILL NOT COME OUT OF THE IGNITION AND I HAVE TO TURN THE CAR BACK ON THEN TURN THE WHEEL, BUT SOMETIMES IT TAKES MORE THAN THIS TO GET THE KEY OUT FROM THE IGNITION SWITCH. I HAD VEHICLE TOWED TO A CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG OR COULD DUPLICATE PROBLEM. WHEN I PICKED UP THE CAR I HAD DRIVE IT 15 MILES AND THE CAR STARTED DOING THE SAME THING.

IN THE MONTH OF FEBRUARY 2016 VEHICLE STARTED TO TELL ME THAT IT WAS OVERHEATING. THE HEAT WAS BLOWING COLD AIR. WITHOUT GOING ANY PLACE BUT SITTING IN THE DRIVEWAY IT STARTED TO TELL ME THAT THE ENGINE WAS OVERHEATING AND TO TURN A/C OFF. I COULD STILL HEAR THE FAN RUNNING WHILE DRIVING AND ONCE I PARKED IT WOULD RUN FOR A WHILE. WHY IS THIS NOT A RECALL WITH ALL THE COMPLAINTS THAT I SEE ON THIS SUBJECT ANY HELP WOULD BE NICE

ON NOVEMBER 17TH THE VEHICLE STARTED TO TELL ME THAT IT WAS OVERHEATING AND TO TURN A/C OFF. A/C WAS NOT EVEN ON BECAUSE IT WAS COLD AND THE HEAT WAS BLOWING COLD AIR. THE VEHICLE THEN TOLD ME WHILE I WAS TRYING TO GET TO A SAFE LOCATION TO PULL OVER THAT THE ENGINE POWER WAS REDUCED AND THE VEHICLE STATED TO CRAWL ALONG THE ROAD. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS LOOKED AT WHERE I PULLED OVER THERE WAS MINIMAL OIL IN THE VEHICLE AND IT HAD BLOW COOLANT ALL OVER THE DRIVER SIDE WHEEL WELL FROM WHAT LOOKED LIKE THE OVERFLOW TUBE. OIL WAS PUT IN THE VEHICLE SO THAT I COULD DRIVE IT TO A SAFE LOCATION. ON NOVEMBER 18TH I WENT TO START THE VEHICLE TO GO TO WORK AND WITHOUT GOING ANY PLACE BUT SITTING IN THE DRIVEWAY IT STARTED TO TELL ME THAT THE ENGINE WAS OVERHEATING AND TO TURN A/C OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED. THE DEALERSHIP THAT I USE WORKED ON IT AND REPLACED THE TEMP CONTROL AND THERMOSTAT AND DID A COMPLETE OIL CHANGE. IN THE FEW DAYS AFTER THIS WORK WAS DONE I COULD STILL HEAR THE FAN RUNNING WHILE DRIVING AND ONCE I PARKED IT WOULD RUN FOR A WHILE. ON NOVEMBER 25TH I WAS DRIVING AND THE VEHICLE STATED TO SAY ENGINE OVERHEATING AND TO TURN A/C OFF ONCE AGAIN I HAD TO TRAVEL A SHORT DISTANCE TO GET A SEMI SAFE LOCATION TO PULL OVER SINCE THE ENGINE POWER WAS REDUCED AGAIN AND THE VEHICLE CRAWLED ALONG. THE HEATER WAS BLOWING COLD AIR I COULD HEAR THE FANS RUNNING INSIDE THE VEHICLE AS WELL. THIS WAS THE SECOND TIME I HAD TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED IN A WEEK. IT IS NOW NOVEMBER 30TH AND I STILL DO NOT HAVE MY VEHICLE BACK BECAUSE THEY ARE STILL "WORKING" ON IT. I SEE A LOT OF 2006 EQUINOX'S WITH THE SAME ISSUE NOT SURE WHY THIS IS NOT A RECALL BECAUSE IT IS VERY INCONVENIENT TO NOT HAVE A CAR AND TO MISS WORK. I AM SENDING PICTURES FROM THE SECOND TIME IT WAS TOWED.

WITHIN THE LAST MONTH MY CAR HAS STARTED EMITTING A VERY STRONG GAS ODOR AND HAS BEEN HAVING STARTING TROUBLE EVERY TIME I TRY AND START THE CAR. IN THE PAST I HAVE HAD IT HESITATE TO START, BUT THAT OCCURRED LESS FREQUENTLY AND NEVER NOTICED THE SMELL. EVER SINCE I NOTICED THE ODOR, AGAIN ABOUT A MONTH AGO, IT IS HAPPENING EVERY TIME I TRY AND START THE CAR. THE ENGINE TURNS...BUT IT TAKES A MINUTE BEFORE IT CATCHES AND STARTS. SOMETIMES IT WILL NOT CATCH AND START AND I HAVE TO TURN THE KEY A 2ND TIME FOR IT TO ACTUALLY START.
