2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX Complaints

TRAVELING WITH CRUISE CONTROL SET TO 40 MPH ON A 2 LANE ROAD THE COLLISION ALERT WENT OFF, BEEPING AND THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED HARD ENOUGH TO FEEL THE STUTTER OF THE ANTI LOCK SYSTEM. THIS WAS THE SECOND TIME, THE FIRST TIME NO CRUISE WAS BEING USED. I HAD TO APPLY THE BRAKE PEDAL TO GAIN CONTROL AGAIN. CAR IS CURRENTLY AT CHEVY DEALER BEING CHECKED. THERE WAS NO THREAT OR CARS IN FRONT OF ME. I AM NOW SCARED TO DRIVE WITH THE SAFETY FEATURES TURNED ON.

MY VEHICLE WAS STRUCK IN THE FRONT BY ANOTHER VEHICLE AS I WAS CROSSING A FOUR LANE HIGHTWAY. OTHER VEHICLE WAS RUNNING 65 MPH. MY SEAT BELT LOCKED, BUT NONE OF THE FRONT OR SIDE CURTAIN AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. I SUFFERED A MILD CONCUSSION AS A RESULT OF MY HEAD STRIKING THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW. IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE WRECK, ONE COULD SMELL THE INFLATORS RELEASING VAPOR, BUT NO DEPLOYMENT OF THE BAGS OCCURRED. VEHICLE WAS A TOTAL LOSS DUE TO STRUCTURAL DAMAGE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE SUN SHINED INTO THE FRONT WINDSHIELD AND REFLECTED OFF THE CHROME FINISH ONTO THE FRONT CUP HOLDERS AND OBSCURED THE CONTACT'S VISION WHILE DRIVING. THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 25.

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING OUR 2015 CHEVY EQUINOXS DOWN A 4 LANE HIGHWAY IN TOWN WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE ANTI COLLISION WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AND BELLS WENT OFF AND THE FRONT BRAKES LOCKED UP FOR NO REASON WE BOUGHT THE CAR 2 MONTHS AGO AND IT HAS 7,000 MILES ON IT THE CAR IS CURRENTLY AT THE CHEVY DEALERS HERE IN TOWN BEI8NG LOOKED AT.

VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED NEW FROM DEALERSHIP YESTERDAY. IT HAD 68 MILES ON ODOMETER. DROVE TO ANOTHER DESTINATION APPROXIMATELY 15 MILES AWAY, PARKED THE VEHICLE, TURNED OFF THE IGNITION, GOT OUT AND RETURNED 5 MINUTES LATER THEN STARTED THE VEHICLE AND DROVE AWAY THEN NOTICED THE ELECTRONIC SPEEDOMETER WAS NO LONGER WORKING. THIS VEHICLE HAD LESS THAN 90 MILES ON IT AND NEED TO RETURN TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR. VERY UPSET AND WORRIED ABOUT THIS VEHICLE, IS AN INDICATOR OF THE BUILD QUALITY- GM, PLEASE REPLACE THIS VEHICLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE AT AN INTERSECTION, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE FAILURE RECURRED SEVERAL TIMES. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS INTERMITTENT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DEALER WHERE THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 4,000.

ON TWO (2) SEPARATE OCCASIONS MY VEHICLE HAS STOPPED DEAD IN THE ROADWAY WHILE DRIVING. I LOST ALL POWER STEERING, LIGHTS, RADIO ETC. I WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE BOTH TIMES. THIS COULD BE DEADLY IF I AM ON A BUSY ROAD OR FREEWAY. I AM TERRIFIED FOR MY SAFETY, BUT ALSO FOR MY TWO YEAR OLD GRANDSON, FAMILY, FRIENDS AND ANYONE ELSE WHO COULD BE INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT IF THIS HAPPENS AGAIN. MY VEHICLE WAS LEASED JANUARY 19, 2015. I AM WAY UNDER ON MY MILES (2600) AND HAS BEEN WELL MAINTAINED BY ME WITH ZERO DAMAGE ANYWHERE. MY VEHICLE WAS IN THE DEALERSHIP FROM JUNE 29, 2015 THE FIRST TIME THE ENGINE STOPPED WHILE DRIVING. THEY KEPT THE VEHICLE FRO 3 DAYS. AT THAT TIME I WAS ADVISED BY THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT THAT MINE WAS THE THIRD VEHICLE IN THE LAST WEEK WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP ON JULY 6TH AFTER THE SECOND TIME IT STOPPED DEAD IN THE ROADWAY. I WAS CALLED ON AUGUST 12, 2015 THAT THE VEHICLE WAS READY FOR PICK UP AND THAT THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THE DEALERSHIP HAS BEEN UNABLE TO FIND THE PROBLEM. THE SERVICE DEPT. STATES THEY HAVE DRIVEN THE VEHICLE FOR A MERE 58 MILES OVER THE LAST SEVERAL WEEKS. THE SERVICE MANAGER SUGGESTS I BUY OUT MY LEASE AND JUST SELL IT TO SOMEONE ELSE. OF COURSE THIS IS NOT AN OPTION FOR ME.

THE INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER LENS ALLOWS FOR AN EXCESSIVE GLARE THAT NOT ONLY PREVENTS THE DRIVER FROM BEING ABLE TO ADEQUATELY READ THE SETTINGS OF THE ANALOG GAUGES, BUT IS ALSO A NUISANCE AND A DISTRACTION ALLOWING THE GLARE FROM THE LENS/COVERS TO BLIND THE DRIVER'S VISION, IN ADDITION TO THE GLARE THAT COMES FROM THE GEAR SHIFT LEVER.

DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 35-40 MPH WITH NO VEHICLES IN SIGHT, NO OBSTACLES, ON A CLEAR DAY, THE FRONT COLLISION ALERT TURNED ON AND THE VEHICLE BRAKES WERE STRONGLY APPLIED. IT WAS EXTREMELY ROUGH AND FRIGHTENING FOR MY DAUGHTER AND I. THERE WAS NO EXPLANATION FOR IT. SINCE THEN, IT HAS HAPPENED SPORADICALLY, AT LEAST 5 MORE TIMES AT ANY GIVEN SPEED AND SAME CONDITIONS AS ABOVE. I HAVE SINCE TURNED OFF THE FEATURE (FORTUNATELY AN OPTION). IF SOMEONE HAD BEEN DRIVING BEHIND ME ANY OF THESE TIMES, THERE COULD HAVE EASILY BEEN A REAR END COLLISION. I'VE TAKEN IT IN TO BE CHECKED OUT TO NO AVAIL. THERE ARE NO CODES, THEY CAN'T DUPLICATE IT, SO "THERE'S NO ISSUE" ACCORDING TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT. I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE WITH 3768 MILES, SO I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY TIMES IT MAY HAVE OCCURRED BEFORE THEN AND I AM AT 4984. THESE INCIDENTS HAVE ALL OCCURRED IN A 1 MONTH SPAN.
