2019 Chevrolet Equinox

UNKNOWN, BUT MAY BE THE FUEL TANK ITSELF OR THE WIRING IS MY GUESS. I FEAR WHATEVER IS WRONG COULD BE EFFECTING THE ENGINE. ON APRIL 12, 2020 MY CAR DIDN'T FILL ALL THE WAY UP WITH GAS. THERE WAS A LITTLE BIT LEFT THAT NEEDED FILLING. I WAS CURIOUS WHY & SENT A PICTURE TO MY MOM. THE CAR SEEMED TO BE WORKING FINE UNTIL JULY 2020. UPON FILLING IT WITH GAS, THE PUMP KEPT SHUTTING OFF ON ME. I TOOK IT INTO THE AUTO REPAIR SHOP TWICE (JULY & AUGUST) TO HAVE IT FIXED FOR THE SAME ISSUE SO FAR & THEY STILL HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO FIX IT. THE PROBLEM GOT PROGRESSIVELY WORSE, AND AFTER THE FIRST VISIT IN JULY, MY CAR WOULD NOT FILL WITH GAS AT ALL ANYMORE DURING THE SECOND TIME FILLING IT UP. I HAD TO BORROW A RENTAL FROM THE AUTO SHOP WHILE THEY TRIED TO FIX IT FOR THE SECOND TIME. I EVENTUALLY GOT MY CAR BACK, AND WHEN I TRIED FILLING IT UP WITH GAS ON THE SAME DAY I GOT MY CAR BACK, IT DISPLAYED THE SAME ISSUE. THE PUMP KEPT SHUTTING OFF ON ME. NOW, MY VEHICLE IS DOING A WEIRD SURGING FORWARD MOTION WHEN I'M BARELY PRESSING ON THE GAS.

WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AT 9:30 PM ON A STATE HIGHWAY, MY 17 YEAR OLD SON HIT A DEER ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE OF THE CAR. THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED AND HE SLOWED DOWN AND PULLED OVER AND SMELLED SMOKE. HE GOT OUT OF THE CAR AND SAW FLAMES. HE IMMEDIATELY CALLED 911 AND HIS MOTHER. THE CAR WAS ON FIRE AND BURNED UNTIL FIRE COMPANY GOT THERE AND PUT THE FIRE OUT. MOST OF THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE CAR UNDER THE HOOD WAS DESTROYED. THE CAR WAS A TOTAL LOSS. MY CONCERN IS THAT CAR SHOULD NEVER HAVE CAUGHT ON FIRE. MY SON IS LUCKY HE COULD GET OUT OF THE CAR. HE WAS SHAKEN UP AND GOT WHIPLASH FROM THE IMPACT BUT SEEMS TO BE OK. HOWEVER, MY BRAND NEW 2019 EQUINOX IS NOT OK. I CAN TELL YOU, IF THE CAR HADN'T STARTED ON FIRE, STRUCTURALLY, THERE WASN'T A TON OF DAMAGE. IT COULD HAVE EASILY BEEN REPAIRED. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW HOW THIS HAPPENED?

I HAVE 33K MILES ON THE VEHICLE AND WHEN DRIVING THE CAR FEELS AS IF IT WANTS TO SHUT DOWN. A FEW RECENT DRIVES, ON CITY STREET, I'VE BEEN FEELING THE CAR STRUGGLING TO ACCELERATE CAUSING A JERKING FORWARD MOTION. ANOTHER ISSUE I HAVE IS I RECENTLY HAD TO PUT AIR IN MY RIGHT REAR TIRE, WHEN I PLUGGED MY TIRE INFLATOR IN THE ELECTRIC SOCKET AND TURNED THE POWER ON, THE CAR SOUNDED LIKE IT WAS STRUGGLING TO STAY ON AND THE ENGINE WAS BECOMING INCREASINGLY NOISIER. I PROCEEDED TO PUT AIR IN MY TIRE AND THE RIGHT BREAK LIGHT BEGAN FLASHING, ONLY THE RIGHT BRAKE LIGHT. I HAD USED MY TIRE INFLATOR IN THE PAST ON SAME VEHICLE ABOUT A YEAR AGO AND HAD ZERO ISSUES. I ALSO RECEIVED NOTIFICATION FROM ONSTAR TODAY, 5/13/20 THAT THE SYSTEM HAD DETECTED A FUEL EMISSIONS ISSUE AND THEN MY ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON. *TR

VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER WHILE PULLING INTO A 4 WAY MAIN ROAD. VEHICLE EMERGENCY LIGHTS/FLASHERS DID NOT WORK. COMPLETE ELECTRICAL FAILURE. CAR WAS STALLED IN ACTIVE TRAFFIC LANE DURING NIGHT TIME HOURS. VEHICLE WAS TOWED INTO DEALER FOR FULL DIAGNOSTIC REVIEW- NO ISSUE WAS FOUND WITH VEHICLE, ALTHOUGH SEVERAL EEC TEST CODES WERE DETECTED- P0627, P0629, P01400, U18A2, U1524 AND U18B4+71- MOST CODES HAVING TO DO WITH FUEL PUMP/EMISSION ISSUES. OWNER OF VEHICLE CONSIDERS THIS A SERIOUS ISSUE AS CAR STALLED AT NIGHT, IN A HEAVY TRAFFIC AREA WITH NO LIGHTING OR EMERGENCY FLASHERS WORKING TO PROVIDE PROTECTION FROM ON-COMING TRAFFIC. EMERGENCY PERSONNEL WERE CALLED TO ASSIST.

THERE IS A FUEL LINK THAT APPEARS TO BE COMING FROM WHERE THE FUEL TANK THE LEAK WAS FOUND WHEN I PARK THE CAR AND LET IT SITE FOR A FEW HOURS. A STRONG FUEL SMELL AND A WET SPOT ON THE PAVEMENT UNDER THE FUEL TANK. I HAVE SMELLED THE GASOLINE PREVIOUSLY BUT DIDN'T NOTIC THE LEAK UNTIL I HAD SOMETHING TO UNLOAD FROM MY TRUNK.

BRAKES FAILED CAUSING VEHICLE TO CRASH INTO FENCE WHEN BACKING OUT OF DRIVEWAY. VEHICLE WAS PUT INTO DRIVE & WITHOUT PUTTING FOOT ON GAS PEDAL, VEHICLE ACCELERATED AND CRASHED THROUGH GARAGE - THRU FRONT DOOR & OUT THE BACK OF THE GARAGE. FILED COMPLAINT WITH CENTRAL CLAIMS CASE (XXX) INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *CW

THE VECHICLE'S ENGINE SHUTS OFF WHILE STOPPED FOR A VERY SHORT TIME ON ROADS IN TRAFFIC. IT CAN BE A MAJOR HIGHWAY, OR INTERSTATE AND EVEN NEIGHBORHOOD ROADS. IT CAN BE HAZARDOUS AS THE VEHICLE TAKES A MINUTE TO START BACK UP AND GET GOING. I HAD NO IDEA THIS FEATURE EVEN EXISTED, BEFORE I EXPERIENCED IT AFTER PURCHASING. I AM ALSO EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS WITH THE TAILGATE/TRUNK LOCKING. I LOCK THE VEHICLE, AND ALL DOORS LOCK EXCEPT THE TRUNK. I HAVE ONLY HAD THE VEHICLE SINCE DEC 31,2018 AND AM VERY SURPRISED TO BE EXPERIENCING THESE ISSUES SO SOON.
