2010 CHEVROLET EQUINOX Complaints

THE CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM INTERMITTENTLY BLOWS EITHER HIGH HEAT OR NO HEAT AT ALL. I FOUND A SAFETY RECALL # 090298 FOR THIS SPECIFIC PROBLEM AND CALLED MY DEALER. THEY HAVE NO RECALL FOR THIS AND WON'T FIX IT FOR NO COST UNLESS THEY CAN FIND A RECALL! IF YOU NEED MORE INFORMATION PLEASE ADVISE. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE. THIS HAPPENS OF COURSE WHEN IN MOTION NO MATTER WHAT TYPE OF STREET OR HIGHWAY I'M ON.

A YEAR AFTER I PURCHASED MY USED EQUINOX MY WATER PUMP WENT OUT. WHILE AT THE DEALERSHIP THEY REALIZE THAT MY OPINIONS HAVE BEEN WORN AND MY TIMING CHAIN NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. LESS THAN 6 MONTHS AFTER MY ENGINE LIGHT POPPED ON.. THIS CAR HAS BEEN UNRELIABLE ALMOST THE WHOLE TIME I'VE OWNED IT. LAST MARCH I REPLACE THE TIMING CHAIN AGAIN. AFTER MUCH RESEARCH I REALIZE THAT MY TIMING CHAIN KEEPS GETTING DESTROYED BECAUSE THE HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP IS LEAKING GAS INTO MY CRANKCASE. CHEVY HAS PUT OUT A RECALL FOR MY MAKE AND MODEL VEHICLE BUT MY VIN IS NOT LISTED. I'M NOT SURE WHY IT WOULDN'T BE LISTED ESPECIALLY SINCE I AM EXPERIENCING THE SAME SYMPTOMS THAT IS LISTED IN THE BULLETIN.

WIPERS SPONTANEOUSLY STOPPED WORKING. MOTOR CONTINUED BUT CONNECTION ASSEMBLY DETERIORATED AND FELL APART. HAD TO REPLACE ENTIRE MOTOR WIPER ASSEMBLY UNIT. THIS OCCURRED IN JUNE OF 2018.

VEHICLE BEGAN EXPERIENCING STALLING OUT. DETERMINED TO BE CAUSED BY METAL SHAVINGS IN ENGINE. THE ONLY PRIOR ENGINE WORK ON THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN DONE BY CHEVROLET TO ADDRESS A RECALL IN 2013 FOR HIGH OIL CONSUMPTION. THE ENGINE WAS REBUILT IN DECEMBER OF 2013. NO OTHER WORK WAS DONE TO THE ENGINE. THE REPAIR FOR THIS ISSUE WAS REPLACEMENT OF THE ENGINE.

14882 SPECIAL COVERAGE ADJUSTMENT-PLUGGED PCV ORIFICE IN INTAKE MANIFOLD. DEALER IN COLUMBUS NE. 68601 ERNEST AUTO SALES TOLD ME MY 2010 VIN. NUMBER NOT LISTED FOR THE RECALL BACK MAIN SEAL BLOWED OUT NO WARRANTY .I SEE OTHER PEOPLE SAME PROBLEM WITH SEAL AND AGAIN ARE CARS NOT COVERED. I OWN 2 EQUINONS 2010 AND 2018.. MAYBE I NEED TO LOOK AT OTHER BRANDS INSTEAD IF YOU HAVE A KNOW PROBLEM AND WONT STAND BEHIND YOUR PRODUCT THAT'S SAD YOU MAKE YOUR DECISION AND ILL MAKE MINE!!! I WAS DRIVING IT STARTED TO SMOKE A LITTLE PLUS COULD SMELL IT WHEN I STOPED

WIPERS TRANSMISSION STOPPED WORKING. TRANSMISSION REVVING HIGH BEFORE SHIFTING. MOTOR TICKING.

DRIVING ON STATE HIGHWAY WHEN VEHICLE STARTED ACTING LIKE IT WOULD DIE. I WAS ALMOST HOME AND WHEN I PARKED IT FOUND IT HAD ALMOST NO OIL IN VEHICLE AFTER CHECKING IT BEFORE TRAVELING HOME. OIL LIGHT DID NOT COME ON. MECHANIC SAYS FROZEN PCV VALVE IN REAR CRANKSHAFT; IT COULD HAVE BLOWN AND LEFT ME STRANDED OR IN ACCIDENT; MECHANIC SAID THERE WAS A RECALL BUT MY PARTICULAR VIN WASN'T INCLUDED

WAS IN MOTION ON THE HIGHWAY DURING A STATE OF EMERGENCY SNOW STORM AND THE WIPERS WENT COMPLETELY OUT I SPINNED AND ALMOST CRASHED. AFTER READING REVIEWS THIS IS COMMON AND GM ONLY RECALLED CERTAIN YEARS AND VIN NUMBERS LEAVING OTHERS TO DEAL WITH THE SAFETY ISSUE THIS IS A MAJOR CONCERN. MY SON WAS ALSO IN THE CAR AND A PART OF THE FAULTY WIPER SYSTEM CHEVY IS SELLING TO ITS CUSTOMERS.

BALANCE CHAIN PINS WEAR, ALLOWING THE CHAIN TO STRETCH.CAUSE ENGINE NOISE. I TOOK THE CAR IN FOR A BRAKE JOB AND SAID THE ENGINE IS MAKING NOISES IT SHOULDN'T BE MAKING.THE ADVISOR SAID THAT'S NOMAL FOR THAT CAR TO MAKE THAT NOISE.IT'S THE SAME RECALL FOR THE 2010-2011 EQUINOX ON THE 2.4L ENGINE.(LAF).THAT YEAR 2010-2011 HAVE A SPECIAL COVERAGE ADJUSTMENTTHE 2014 EQUINOX HAS THE SAME PROBLEMS AND YOU NEED TO LOOK INTO THIS BECAUSE PEOPLE PAYING FOR A NO FIX.

THIS IS THE 2ND TIME MY WIPERS HAVE SEIZED WHILE OPERATING DURING A SNOWFALL. IT WAS NOT STORMY BLIZZARD CONDITIONS EITHER JUST HAD THE WIPERS ON SLOW TO CLEAR LIGHT SNOW. I WAS CITY DRIVING BARELY DOING 25 BOTH TIMES. IT HAPPENED LAST APRIL I HAD IT REPAIRED. NOW THEY SEIZED AGAIN LAST NIGHT. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZZARD AND I THIS CHEVROLET SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR IT. I HAD LESS THEN 100,000 MILES ON IT THE FIRST TIME AN NOW I HAVE 104,000 AND IT BROKE AGAIN.
