2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX Complaints

I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN A TORRENTIAL DOWNPOUR OCCURRED. I TURNED ON THE WIPERS AND THEY FLEW TO THE LEFT THEN STOPPED WORKING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WINDSHIELD. I WAS ALL THE WAY OVER IN THE LEFT LANE, COULD NOT SEE ANYTHING. HAD TO OPEN THE PASSENGER WINDOW AND TRY TO GET OVER TO THE SHOULDER. I FINALLY MADE IT ACROSS 4 LANES OF HEAVY TRAFFIC THAT WAS GOING 65+ AND STOPPED ON THE SHOULDER. IT WAS A MIRACLE WE WERE NOT HIT TRYING TO GET OVER AND ALSO DURING THE HOUR WE HAD TO WAIT FOR THE RAIN TO STOP BEFORE HEADING HOME. WE HAD TO WAIT 2 DAYS BEFORE THE DEALERS SERVICE DEPARTMENT COULD LOOK AT OUR CAR. IT TURNED OUT THE WIPER TRANSMISSION SEPARATED. THEY REPLACED THE WIPER TRANSMISSION AND THAT SEEMS TO HAVE FIXED THE ISSUE. COST OF REPAIR WAS $365.50. I AM VERY GRATEFUL TO BE ALIVE!

THE VEHICLE STALLS UPON GOING A SLOW RATE OF SPEED AS WHEN BACKING OUT OF A DRIVEWAY, DRIVING IN A PARKING LOT, OR STOPPING AND TRYING TO PERFORM A TURN ON A CITY STREET. IT CAN ALSO STALL ON THE INTERSTATE IF YOU IDLE WHILE SLOWED DUE TO TRAFFIC STOPS. YOU HAVE TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND RESTART THE VEHICLE. IT STALLS ABOUT 3-4 TIMES A TRIP. SEVERAL TIMES A DAY. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON.

WAS DRIVING ON US 23 IN A DOWN POUR WITH WIPERS AT FULL SPEED WHEN WIPERS STOPPED AND WENT BEYOND DRIVER SIDE WINDSHIELD. REACHED OUT WINDOWT TO PUSH WIPER BACK TO MOVE PASSENGER WIPER OUT OF DRIVER SIGHT LINE. WAS VERY SCARY.

2015 CHEVY EQUINOX WITH 94,000 MILES AND THE WIPER TRANSMISSION FAILED. I WAS DRIVING IN DOWN POURING RAIN ON THE INTERSTATE AND THE WIPERS JUST QUIT WORKING. I HAD TO VERY QUICKLY AND CAREFULLY NAVIGATE TO THE SHOULDER AND SIT TIL IT QUIT RAINING BEFORE I COULD GET ON MY WAY. I TOOK IT TO THE CHEVROLET DEALER AND THEY REPLACED THE WIPER TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY AND MOTOR. THEY SAID THIS HAS BEEN RECALLED ON THE 2013 EQUINOX BUT NOT THE 2015.

ON JULY 21, 2019 AT APPROXIMATELY 5:15 PM I WAS DRIVING MY TRUCK IT WAS RAINING HARD DO HARD THAT I COULD BARELY SEE MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS WERE ON AND WORKING ALL OF A SUDDEN THEY STOPPED WORKING AND FLIPPED ALL THE WAY OVER TO THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW AND STOPPED WORKING NO MOVEMENT WHAT SO EVER. IT WAS VERY SCARY BECAUSE TRAFFIC WAS MOVING PRETTY FAST AND I COULDN'T SEE. I HAD TO LET MY WINDOW DOWN IN ORDER TO SEE TO GET TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROAD TO PULL OVER. I HAD TO WAIT UNTIL IT STOPPED RAINING FOR ABOUT 45 MINUTES SO I COULD RETURN HOME SAFELY. I WAS ON DRIVING ON HWY 231 NORTH, IN WETUMPKA ALABAMA.

VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION TRAVELING 65 MPH ON I-95 AT 10:00 PM AT NIGHT. IT WAS DURING A THUNDERSTORM WITH HEAVY RAIN AND LOW VISIBILITY WHEN THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS ABRUPTLY STOPPED IN THE UPRIGHT POSITION BLOCKING MY VISION OF THE HIGHWAY. WIPERS WERE ON THE LOWEST NOTCH OF THE MEDIUM SETTING. THIS WAS VERY SCARY AND I HAD TO MOVE OVER THREE LANES AND LUCKILY WAS RIGHT NEAR A REST STOP AND WAS ABLE TO SAFELY STOP. I HAD TO MANUAL PUSH THE WIPERS DOWN. I COULD HEAR THE MOTOR BUT THE WIPERS DID NOT MOVE. I TURNED THE CAR ON AND OFF, STILL DID NOT WORK. I HAD TO WAIT UNTIL THE RAIN STOPPED. 70,000 MILES. THIS WAS A VERY SCARY EXPERIENCE AND THIS IS CLEARLY AN ISSUE. I HOPE THIS IS ADDRESSED TO PROTECT OTHERS. THIS COULD CAUSE MAJOR ACCIDENTS AND RISK LIVES. I FEEL VERY LUCKY.
