2013 CHEVROLET EQUINOX Complaints

I CALLED GM AND MY DEALER SEVERAL TIMES IN THE PAST YEAR DUE TO WIPERS STOPPING SUDDENLY CAUSING NO VISIBILITY. I HAD TO LEAVE MY VEHICLE ROADSIDE SEVERAL TIMES. I HAVE TRIED REPAIRS WHICH WERE ONLY TEMPORARY. I WAS TOLD THERE WERE NO RECALLS. I FINALLY RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER AND CALLED THE DEALER AS WELL AS GM AND WAS TOLD THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS YET THEREFORE THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE FOR ME. I WAS TOLD THE DEALER ALSO DOES NOT KEEP A LIST OF AFFECTED VEHICLES AND IT IS UP TO ME TO CONTACT THE DEALER WEEKLY TO SEE IF THE PART IS AVAILABLE. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE AND I CAN ONLY WONDER HOW MANY PEOPLE MAY HAVE DIED DUE TO THIS ISSUE.

AT ABOUT 95,000 MILES THE 2013 CHEVY EQUINOX'S ENGINE STARTED STALLING WHEN SLOWING DOWN TO STOP OR WHILE IDLING IN DRIVE/REVERSE. THINKING IT WAS AN ISSUE WITH THE GAS, THE GAS WAS RAN OUT OF THE VEHICLE AND NEW GAS WAS PUT IT; THIS DID NOT CORRECT THE ISSUE. CAR IS ABLE TO IDLE WITHOUT STALLING IF IN PARK OR NEUTRAL.
