2010 CHEVROLET EQUINOX Complaints

TRANSMISSION IS BAD. WHEN I TRY TO ACCELERATE IT DOESN'T GO ANYWHERE AND ITS SKIPPING GEARS AND BUCKING PRIOR TO IT FINALLY NO LONGER DRIVEABLE

WHILE DRIVING IN THE RAIN, THE WIPERS QUIT WORKING. I COULD HEAR THE MOTOR, BUT NO WIPERS

HIGH OIL CONSUMPTION AND LOUD UNKNOWN NOISE FROM ENGINE. THE ENGINE SOUNDS LIKE IT IS GOING TO COME APART WHEN STARTED AND DURING ACCELERATION. THE MILEAGE ON THE CAR IS " 91860 ". THE DEALER PERFORMED AN OIL CONSUMPTION REPORT LAST MAY. SAID THAT IT WAS WITHIN THE REQUIREMENTS SET BY CHEVROLET. ENGINE NOISE HAS INCREASED. I DO NOT FEEL THAT IT IS SAFE TO DRIVE ON INTERSTATE HIGHWAYS.

I PUT THE CAR IN GEAR, I PRESS THE GAS PEDAL AND THE RPMS REV UP BUT MY CAR DOES NOT MOVE

I HAVE BOUGHT THIS CAR MAY 23RD 2018. THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER NEEDED REPLACING AND LIGHT STILL WILL NOT GO OFF AND CODE WILL NOT DELETE, THE O2 SENSORS KEEP GOING OUT (3 TIMES ALREADY) AND THE CAMSHAFT POSITION ACTUATOR SOLENOID VALVE HAS BEEN REPLACED 5 TIMES IN 11 MONTHS. THE OIL CONSUMPTION IS INSANE, I CANNOT MAKE IT TO THE OIL NOTIFICATION THE CAR GIVES ME, WITHOUT PUTTING 3 QTS OF OIL , BEFORE THE NOTIFICATION RECOMMENDS. I HAVE NO OIL LEAK!!!

THIS RESULTS IN BEING UNABLE TO ACCELERATE PAST 20-30 MPH UPON TAKEOFF WHICH IS SCARY AND DANGEROUS ON THE HIGHWAY.

ON 10/14/2016 THERE WAS A RECALL NOTICE FOR THE TCM ON SEVERAL VEHICLES INCLUDING THE 2010-2013 CHEVROLET EQUINOX.GM'S RECALL NUMBERS FOR THIS ARE 50490 AND 50491.
