2023 Chevrolet Equinox

Recall/Loss of Power I am filing a safety complaint regarding a 2023 Chevy Equinox. The vehicle began losing engine power and will not go over 40 mph. This creates a dangerous driving situation because the vehicle cannot maintain highway speed. The vehicle has a fuel system recall, and the issue appears to be related to the fuel system. The vehicle is currently at a Chevrolet dealership and has been there for almost a month. The vehicle is currently inoperable. This is a safety concern because loss of engine power while driving could cause an accident. I am requesting that this issue be investigated as a safety defect. Sincerely, [XXX]   VIN [XXX] Mileage: 63,000 INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

My Equinox completely stopped functioning in the middle of a major intersection as I was making a left turn during 5pm traffic. I was able to push the car out of the intersection with the help of other drivers (they had to exit their vehicles to assist) and the car restarted - I drove back roads to chevy dealership with the car cutting out unexpectedly twice more while the vehicle was moving and then restarting. No warning light came on. Dealership said my fuel pump "exploded" and pieces were also caught in the fuel injectors and all had to be replaced.

I can be driving at speeds up to 40 -60mph. The car will just shut down on high way, putting not only myself but children at risk of a crash. The car will start reduced power engine, and the engine will start to stall and completely shut down. I have taken it to nick chevy in tarentum pa multiple times regarding this issue. They state software issue. But every so many months it does it again. Putting my life and children life in danger for just stopping on major highways.

Within the past two months, I have experienced multiple significant mechanical failures that raise serious concerns about the reliability and safety of this vehicle. First, the air conditioning compressor failed at approximately 55,000 miles. This was an unexpected and costly repair for a vehicle that is only two years old and has been properly maintained. Shortly thereafter, the fuel pump failed. I became aware there was a recall related to the fuel system; however, when the dealership ran my VIN, it did not populate under the recall campaign. Despite this, the component still failed. Now, I am experiencing continued stalling and drivability issues, particularly when coming to a stop or when the automatic start/stop system engages at traffic lights. Based on the symptoms, I believe the secondary fuel pump may also be malfunctioning. A vehicle stalling in traffic creates a clear safety hazard. I rely on this vehicle daily, and repeated fuel system failures at this mileage are unacceptable. I am requesting the following: A full diagnostic review of the fuel system under manufacturer oversight Consideration for coverage or reimbursement of recent repairs Investigation into whether my vehicle should have been included in the applicable recall Assurance that this vehicle is safe to operate I have maintained this vehicle appropriately and did not expect major component failures at 55,000 miles. I am extremely concerned about both reliability and safety moving forward. Please advise on next steps and how Chevrolet intends to address this matter.

High capacity fuel pump stopped working while going up a hill. Lost all driving power on freeway and was unable to accelerate any more. Luckily there was a pull off on the freeway or I would have been on a blind turn with cars going 70mph. Had to have pump replaced at a local shop as there was no recall for 2023. 2021 and 2022 have the recall for this specific component.

The contact owns a 2023 Chevrolet Equinox. The contact stated that while driving at approximately 65 MPH, he observed a "reduced engine power " message appear and the check engine warning light illuminated. Additionally, the vehicle lost power. The vehicle was steered to the side of the road, where the vehicle stalled. The vehicle was not able to restart immediately, but it restarted 45 minutes later, the failure persisted. The vehicle was then taken to an independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed, and determined that the fuel pump needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure reoccurred approximately five months later. The contact stated that during the last failure the vehicle was not able to be restarted. The vehicle was towed to the same independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed that the fuel pump and the entire fuel pump system needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired due to the parts being on a national backorder. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 38,000.

My car has a vibration, I went to the dealer after one week of buying it, they first told me it has a learning transmission and after it learns how I drive it will go away. I later found out there is not such thing, the vibration at first was at slow speeds 30 t0 40 mph. I made a complaint to gm and the dealer, the dealer felt the vibration but could find what was the cause and said gm has to receive several complaints and considered this normal, I have taken it back for service a advised them gain of the ,problem and was told they could not fine the problem to wait until it get worse . I took it back over 6 times with no answers. My last time they said there was slippage in the torque converter but gm would not do anything and told me to wait until it gets worse, it now vibrates from 2 mph to 60 mph and makes a low growling noise, the dealer has felt the vibration every time I had them drive it, I new from the start if was in transmission it now will be three years with no correction, I know vibration can cause other problems which could loosen something else, I do not feal safe and will not drive it out of town. All I get from the dealer is they now know it is in the trans, but keeps telling me to bring it back when it gets worse. I cannot accept that, they keep using this as a excuse not to fix the problem. What else can I do?, I know other gm suv have the same problem but gm will not admit to the problem until they get more complaints. what

My car has been shutting down or going into limp mode. It has happened 4 times now and has left me stranded. The second time it happened I was going highway speeds and car lost power causing me to almost get rearended trying to pull my car off road. The 3rd time it happened my car stahled while idling and I could not get it to start back up in the middle of traffic at intersection. I have had injector and pipe replaced, ecm updated and now its going back to dealer as it is currently broke down again.

In September 2025 engine light came on and the message Engine Power is Reduced. The message and light went off. In October 2025 the engine light came on again and another message came on. Something like service ES. I didn’t catch the rest of it. No trouble driving and engine light went out after driving awhile. I took it to the Chevy dealer and they told me I need a new fuel pump. Car has only 58,249 miles on it. I refused repair and told them there were several recalls, but not for my year. Apparently this is a major problem with the Chevy Equinox.
