2022 CHEVROLET EQUINOX Complaints

Vehicle stalled and stop running while accelerating at a busy intersection and created a hazardous situation in traffic. Had to push the car off the road. Car would not start again so called for a tow. The Equinox was taken to a nearby Chevrolet dealership. I ran a tester on it and the error code was P129F, Fuel Pump Driver Control Module, Fuel Pump Speed Signal Incorrect. In doing a search, I discovered there was a recall for 2022 Equinox for this issue however I never received a notice for my 2022 Equinox. This put me in danger as well as two of my children who were riding with me. I'm extremely dissappointed and alarmed that Chevy did not send a letter with the recall. The dealership apparently repaired it under warranty and not under a recall which is disturbing to me since they may be "under-reporting" this problem.

While driving along the road the engine suddenly, without warning shut down. My wife and I were left stranded in the travel lane of the road. The fuel tank had about 3/4 of a tank of gas in it. The engine would not start. When the engine quit, we did not have any control of the steering and we just coast to a stop. We were moving at about 25 to 30 miles an hour on a twisting, hilly road when the engine quit. We were left stranded in a very dangerous curve on a hill. Visibility for oncoming traffic is hampered by the curves and the hill, a dangerous stretch of road. The vehicle was taken to Central Chevrolet via flatbed. The fuel pump module was replaced, and I got my car back the next day. My wife was a nervous wreck. Our Equinox was just over two years old with only 7634 miles on it. To have the engine quit is one thing but to not have control of the steering afterwards or even get into neutral to get it off the road is dangerous to say the least. Central Chevrolet did an excellent job repairing the vehicle and getting it back to me quickly. My concern is will this happen again and if it did happen on the highway, it could be disastrous and possibly deadly.

The fuel pump module failed as I was driving 65 mph on the interstate. Thankfully, I was able to pull over without an incident. My safety was at risk stopping suddenly at this rate of speed and I was thankful I was in the right hand lane and able to pull off the road. After waiting an hour, my car was towed to the dealer and the fuel pump module has been replaced. There were no warning lamps or other symptoms prior to this failure. My car was covered under the warranty and I have contacted GM and filed a complaint regarding this situation as my car only has 9,000 miles on it.

After going very slow, mostly stopped, in stop-and-go traffic for 2 hours, my Chevy Equinox suddenly started to shake and would not respond. The car/engine was on and in Drive but the gas petal would not propel the car forward. My steering wheel locked and I could not turn it in any way. The Engine Light came on and a message came on the dash that said "Push Brake to Start Engine" but pushing the brake did not change anything, and the engine had never turned off. I tried to turn the car off by mashing the brake and pushing the engine stop button but my car would not turn off. I rolled backward into the car behind me as could not go forward and traffic had to be routed around me. About 20 minutes later, I tried to turn my car off and it did cut off completely. About 30 minutes later a police officer was able to turn my car on, put it in neutral, and roll it to the side of the road. The check engine light was still on. My car was towed 200 miles back home and I was able to drive it off the tow truck and into our driveway but the engine light was still on. The next day, the car turned on and the engine light was not on. I did not feel safe to drive it so we had it towed to the Carmax where we purchased it. Carmax towed it to a local chevy dealership and they said it was the fuel nodule. It is currently awaiting those repairs.

I purchased the vehicle new . When I took it in for a factory recall there was damages to the vehicle and dealer blamed me for it. I purchased it brand new. The dealer has gone out of business and GM and the new dealer will not take care of the factory recall since the damages were done by original dealer that sold it. My air conditioner went out as well and they did fix that. But still not able to fix the hidden damages on the vehicle I purchased new. They want to charge me to fix the damages before they fix the factory recall. I would have never know of the damages if there was no factory recall. Please help. I have been getting the run around since February and the lemon law or anyone will help me.

There have been 4 radios in the car installed and it has continually cause multiple issues with the electrical system. We’ve had the car in the shop for 7 different times and there is no correction as of now. Additionally, we’re continuing to have a constant rattling sound and it has been looked at and ‘corrected’ multiple times and there is still not a fix. We’ve had this car in the shop 10 different times over the two issues and still no correction nor any assistance from the manufacturer. Something has to give.

The contact owns a 2022 Chevrolet Equinox. The contact stated that while his wife was driving at 60 MPH, the brake pedal was depressed but the vehicle continued to drive causing the contact to crash into the vehicle in front. The entire front of the vehicle was damaged. The contact stated that the vehicle was still in motion after the crash, he had to jump out of the vehicle and manually steer the vehicle to the side of the road where it finally came to a stop. All the air bags in the vehicle deployed. The contact mentioned the automatic braking system failed to independently stop the vehicle. No warning lights were illuminated. The contact's wife who was driving sustained air bag and seat belt bruising but no medical attention was required. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to the impound lot. The insurance company had not inspected the vehicle as of yet. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was unavailable.

1.The airbags did not deploy, possibly missing. 2. I suffered injury and crashed into a building. I was hit. 3. Vehicle was inspected by the Hertz Rental Car. 4. Do not remember any messages.

My 2022 Chevrolet Equinox lost power on two different occasions. The first time I was driving at 45 mph and the car stalled to a stop and would not restart and had to be towed. It had 816 miles on it. The repair sheet stated that it was a fuel pump control module internal fault. The fuel pump control module was replaced. At 8,401miles, the car did the same, but I was on a four-lane highway driving 65mph with the cruise control on and it lost power, stalled and I coasted to a stop and it would not re-start. After being stranded on the side of the highway for almost 2 hours, it was towed. This time the repair stated that it was due to an internal short in the driver. I was fortunate that I was not in heavy traffic or someone would have crashed into me. There were no warnings until the power cut out and the display indicated "low engine power". This is extremely dangerous and I am afraid it will happen again and I may not be in an area where I can navigate to the side of the road. This defect in the fuel system is a danger to me and other drivers. I contacted Chevrolet Customer Service but was told they can only be of assistance after the problem occurs 3 times. Even though the dealer said the problem was not the same problem, it was a problem with the fuel system.
