I OWN A 2012 CHEVROLET EQUINOX (PURCHASED IN SEPTEMBER 2011) THAT HAD BEEN DIAGNOSED BY A CERTIFIED GMC DEALERSHIP (CARL BLACK GMC ROSWELL, GA) WITH THE EXACT SAME CONDITIONS AS GMC SERVICE BULLETIN NO.: 12313D ' SPECIAL COVERAGE ADJUSTMENT ' ENGINE BALANCE CHAIN AND FUEL PUMP. WHILE MY 2012 MODEL IS NOT LISTED AS COVERED, I AM REQUESTING SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR MY VEHICLE TO BE INCLUDED IN THIS SCA GIVEN THE EXACT MATCH IN VEHICLE SYMPTOMS AND VERY CLOSE CHRONOLOGICAL PROXIMITY TO THE COVERED VEHICLES. I HAVE ATTACHED TWO COPIES OF THE BULLETINS, 1 FROM YOUR WEBSITE AND 1 FROM GM. THANK YOU *TR

WIPERS STOPPED WORKING IN THE MIDDLE OF A TORRENTIAL DOWNPOUR WHILE STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT(STATIONARY). *TR

WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AND THE ENGINE TURNED OFF WITHOUT WARNING. I WAS AT A RED LIGHT WHEN IT SHUT DOWN. UPON FURTHER RESEARCH, THERE WAS A LAWSUIT AGAINST GENERAL MOTORS ABOUT THE ENGINE. AFTER CONTACTING THEM THEY SAID I MISSED THE DEADLINE WHEN WE NEVER RECEIVED THE CLAIM FORM IN THE FIRST PLACE. THE CAR HAS BEEN CONSUMING A LOT OF OIL. IT FELT LIKE I WAS CHANGING THE OIL IN THE ENGINE TOO FREQUENTLY. *TR

I PURCHASED A 2012 EQUINOX ON 6/22/2019. AFTER SEVERAL MONTHS I NOTICED MY OIL CONSUMPTION WAS A POSSIBLE ISSUE. AFTER HAVING IT DIAGNOSED AT OUR GM DEALER I NEED TO HAVE THE OIL ISSUE REPAIRED. I REPLACED PISTONS,RINGS,TIMING CHAIN,WATER PUMP, AND SPENT $3532.13. I MISSED A RECALL BY JUST A FEW WEEKS. THIS IS VERY DISAPPOINTING AS THIS IS NOW MY 3RD BUT POSSIBLY MY LAST EQUINOX. I WANT GM TO HONOR THIS . II PURCHASED THIS SUV ON 6/22/2019.*JB

I HAVE RECENTLY WENT TO A GARAGE FOR A SIMPLE OIL CHANGE AND TO SEE IF I COULD INSTALL A HITCH KIT. COME TO FIND OUT THE FRAME ITSELF IS ROTTING INTERNALLY TO EXTERNALLY. THIS STIRRED UP SOME CONCERN BECAUSE I NEED AN INSPECTION COME JUNE OF THIS YEAR AND IT WILL NOT PASS INSPECTION DUE TO THE ROT. MY CHEVY EQUINOX IS ONLY A 2012. BEING THAT I'VE ONLY PERSONALLY HAD THIS VEHICLE FOR A YEAR, AND IT IS ONLY 8 TO 9 YEARS OLD, I WAS INFORMED THAT THIS KIND OF ROT THAT EXISTS IS BAD. I FOUND THIS OUT JUST THIS PAST WEEK.

THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ROCKER PANELS DETACHED FROM THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE SUBFRAME COULD RECEIVE A TEMPORARY REPAIR HOWEVER, THE REPAIR WOULD NOT FIX THE FAILURE.

I WAS TRAVELING 25 MPH ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET IN LIGHT RAIN WHEN MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING. AS I WAS CLOSE TO HOME, I WAS ABLE TO RETURN TO MY HOME SAFELY. I CHECKED THE GM WEBSITE BY ENTERING MY VIN BUT RECEIVED NOTICE THAT THERE WERE NO ACTIVE RECALLS ON THE VEHICLE. I TOOK THE VEHICLE IN FOR REPAIRS AND AFTER THE REPAIR I WAS CALLED AND INFORMED THAT GM COVERED THE COST TO REPAIR THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS. I AM ATTACHING A COPY OF THE INVOICE. I AM MAKING THIS COMPLAINT ONLY SO OTHERS WILL NOT END UP PAYING FOR SUCH A REPAIR WHEN MAYBE THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL OR NOTICE OF SUCH COVERAGE IS AVAILABLE AS A RESULT OF A DEFECT IN THE VEHICLE.

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE THE INTERSECTION I TURNED CAR OFF AND BACK ON. MADE IT HOME AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. SINCE I BOUGHT MY CAR MY CAR RATTLES AND MORE SO WHEN IN REVERSE
