2011 CHEVROLET EQUINOX Complaints

MY IGNITION WAS GETTING JAMMED AND STUCK WHEN TURNING THE TRUCK ON. WHILE DRIVING I FELT SOMETHING LOSING POWER MY GEARS FELT REALLY SLOW

MY ENGINE WAS MAKING NOISE SO I TOOK IT TO THE SHOP. THEY SAID A BOLT BROKE BY THE TIMING CHAIN. THEN THEY SAID IT MESSED UP THE BLOCK AND THE ENGINE NEEDS REPLACED. I WOULD START UP MY CAR AND I HEAD A RATTLING NOISE LIKE SOMETHING WAS LOOSE. I WOULD HEAR THE VIBRATION NOISE

MY EQUINOX LTZ 2011 KEEP SHUTTING OFF WITHOUT A WARNING WHEN I'M BACKING UP ON A RED LIGHT OR A STOP NO ONE HAS BEEN ABLE TO FIND ANYTHING BECAUSE IT DOESN'T SHOW BUT IT KEEP DOING IT.

DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY DURING HIGH DOWNPOUR. WIPERS REACHED THE END OF THE SEQUENCE AND STOPPED. HAD TO PULL OVER IN POURING RAIN AND HIGH TRAFFIC, CAUSING MAJOR CONCERN AND A MAJOR SAFETY EVENT.

DRIVING IN POURING DOWN RAIN AND WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING. HIGH SAFETY CONCERN.

I WAS DRIVING ON OUR CITIES BYPASS AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY CAR BEGAN TO JERK AND NOT WANT TO ACCELERATE. AFTER GETTING TO A PLACE THAT I COULD SAFELY PULL OVER, I PLACED THE CAR IN PARK AND LISTENED. THE CAR SEEMED TO BE RUNNING FINE. I THOUGHT MAY BE IT WAS BAD GAS BUT I WAS ON A HALF TANK AND HAD BEEN DRIVING WITH THE SAME GAS FOR ALMOST A WEEK WITH NO ISSUES. I TRIED TO DRIVE HOME AND WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE AND WENT TO PRESS THE GAS, NOTHING HAPPENED. THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE. I COULD HEAR ACCELERATION, BUT THE CAR DID NOT BUDGE. I PUT IT IN REVERSE AND THE SAME THING OCCURRED. I AM READING THAT TRANSMISSION FAILURE HAS BEEN A PROBLEM WITH MANY 2011 CHEVY EQUINOX OWNERS. I HAVE A LITTLE UNDER 124,000 MILES. ITS TOO MANY PEOPLE WITH THIS SAME ISSUE FOR IT NOT TO BE RECALLED BY GM. THIS IS NOT A INEXPENSIVE FIX AND IS NOT FAIR TO CONSUMERS.

MY VEHICLE IS DYING WHEN STOPPING AND RUNNING ROUGH WHEN COLD STARTED. IT JERKS AND TURNS OFF AT A STOP, BUT TURNS ON IMMEDIATELY AFTER. IT USED TO OCCASIONALLY HAPPEN, NOW IT'S EVERY TIME I STOP.
