My 2022 Equinox stopped unexpectedly while in traffic. I could not restart the engine. It was towed to the dealer who told me that there were no recalls on this car. I confirmed this by entering the VIN in your data base. However, when I put in 2022 Equinox. it shows multiple recalls including one for a fuel pump defect (exactly my problem). I don't understand these conflicting reports. It appears I should have gotten multiple recall notices. Can you please explain the disparity?

We purchased this used 2022 Equinox on [XXX] from Hatfield Buick / GMC in Redlands. It is still under factory warranty with mileage currently at 17,700. In mid January 2024, the vehicle was difficult starting. After it started, I drove directly to the dealer in Redlands. They kept the car for nearly two weeks before they identified the electrical problem was in the factory radio mechanism. At that time, I was told there was a supply chain issue obtaining a replacement radio from the GM FACTORY and there was no eta. I told the service advisor I NEEDED MY CAR. He suggest they pull the fuse controlling the radio until the replacement radio was received. That way I could take the car home and regain use. The only problem with this temporary fix was it affected many inside the cabin functions, most directly all sounds of turn signals, etc were silent, the back up camera no longer functioned and mostly all these disabled functions made the use of the car DANGEROUS. On March 13th I sent the general manager and service tech an email asking the status to our problem. As of today, Sunday, March 17 no word from that dealership. I need your help resolving this problem or authorize that dealer to provide a temporary replacement and keep our vehicle until the necessary part to resolve is complete. Thanks, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

My SUV started stalling a few days ago, but it was only for a short time. Now, it's getting worse, and the engine warning light has turned on. When I try to accelerate by putting gas, it's very slow. I'm worried it could cause an accident. Even when I try to turn, it moves very slowly, which could lead to an accident, and I have two kids. I just bought this SUV last month, and it only has 12,700 miles on it. See the picture here for proof. It's especially dangerous when I try to drive, and it moves slowly, which could cause an accident.

When I would start my car in the morning, it would stall/sputter and make clanking noises. The check engine light came on, and I took it to the dealership for repair. They replaced a fuel injector and then the next day I had the same issue and took it back to the dealership. They replaced another fuel injector and when I got it home and tried to start it a few days later, the same issue persisted. I took it back to the dealership and asked they keep it a few days to test their repairs and they’ve had the car almost 4 months now. They don’t know what the issue is. They’ve brought in engineers from GM and still can’t identify the issue.

My car has stalled and left me stranded twice now. In June a new Fuel pump control module was put in around 6/3/23 at 6152 miles and Feb 5 at 9064 miles, new FPCM was installed. GM insists there is no recall on my 2022 Equinox, yet this car has had the exact same issue as Recall: 23V013000, twice now. I am very concerned for the Safety of a car that will stop running while you are driving. When this part stops working the car stops running and will not start and leaves you stranded wherever you are. No lights/no warnings it just stops running. I was stranded in the middle of an eight lane busy road in Daytona, FL when my car stopped running. I had just come off the interstate, as I exited to the off ramp and came to a slower speed 30-40 MPH the car started sputtering and shaking before I made the right turn off the ramp. It sputtered about 2/3 blocks and it stalled. Once it started sputtering and shaking I had no power, giving it gas did nothing to increase the engine speed or speed up the car. I was left stranded until 3 guys pushed my car about 2 blocks to safety. My car also stalled in Orlando in June, at a stop sign, it would not start. We had to be out in the road flagging people to go around my car. These are the codes and fix each time. ECM - Engine System P129F The Engine and Transmission System is not performing as expected. An issue has been detected in the Fuel Management System used to maintain, control and monitor fuel consumption. Work report from February 5, 2023 from Jon Hall Chevrolet, INC States: 9064 Verified P129F disconnected K111 FPCM 8 to 1.2 OHMS 9 to 2.4 OHMS 24 to 3.2 OHMS.

I was at a red light and my car has the auto start/stop when your on the breaks for a bit. Light turned green and my car break pedal locked, all the gear lights started flashing. Car then stalled when turning on and off. I was in the VERY busy intersection and lucky no one plowed into me as I was trapped in the middle lane.
