2010 CHEVROLET EQUINOX Complaints

WHEN THE CAR IS RUNNING AND I PUT THE HEAT OR DEFROSTER ON POPPING NOISES COMING FROM CONTROL SYSTEM AND THEN IT CHANGES FROM HEAT TO COOL OR COLD AIR. I HAVE TO PLAY WITH THE SYSTEM SWITCHING BACK AN FORTH FROM A/C TO HEAT TO SOMETIMES TO GET THE HEAT BACK ON. SOMETIMES IT WILL NOT COME BACK . IT STARTED IN DECEMBER OF 2016 AN CONTINUES TILL PRESENT DATE. THE NHTSA COMPLAINT #09V49800 GM CHEVROLET IS SAYING 2010 CHEVROLET EQUINOX ARE NOT INCLUDED. BUT CAR HAS THE SAME PROBLEM AS THEIR RECALL.

IT USES OIL LIKE CRAZY. WE HAVE CHANGED EVERYTHING,BESIDES GETTING A NEW MOTOR. I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK TONIGHT AND THE ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON OUT OF NO WHERE. MY BRAKES WHERE TRYING TO LOCK UP. WHEN YOU CRANK IT NOW IT MAKES A FUNNY NOICE

WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY, STATIONARY, ALL NIGHT, ALL MORNING, KEY WAS NOT IN THE IGNITION, NO ONE AROUND, IT STARTED BY ITSELF. NO ONE WAS IN THE VEHICLE AND THE DOORS LOCKED. WHEN NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOR LEFT HIS HOUSE, IN THE MORNING, HE NOTICED IT WAS RUNNING AND CHECKED TO SEE IF THE KEY WAS IN THE IGNITION, IT WASN'T, AND THEN IF WE WERE AROUND, WE WEREN'T. THEN HE TOUCHED THE HOOD OF THE CAR TO SEE IF IT WAS HOT, IT WASN'T AND WAITED UNTIL THE VEHICLE TURNED OFF. IT RAN FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES BEFORE IT TURNED OFF. WE WERE TOLD IN THE EVENING OF WHAT HAPPENED AND WENT TO SEE IF THE VEHICLE WOULD START WITH THE KEY AND IT DID.

VEHICLE JUST REACHED THE 100K MILE MARK. WITHOUT ANY WARNING THE TRANSMISSION WENT FULLY OUT OF COMMISSION. ALWAYS HAD OUR CHANGED AND ALL REPAIRS DONE AT DEALERSHIP. BRAKES REPLACED AND OIL CHANGED AT 104,976 WITH MULTIPOINT INSPECTION DONE AT DEALERSHIP. NO PROBLEMS REPORTED AT THIS TIME. TRANSMISSION FAILED AT 105,638.

MY CAR WASN'T TELLING ME THAT OIL IS LOW. THEN IT STARTED LEAKING OIL LIKE CRAZY. EVERY OTHER DAY I WOULD PUT OIL. AND DO FREQUENT OIL CHANGE. ONE DAY I WAS DRIVING IN THE FREEWAY WITH MY KIDS IN THE BACK SEAT. GOING 70MPH MY CAR SUDDENLY GIVES OUT. HAVE TO RUSH TO PARK IT ASIDE. THEN MY CAR WONT RUN. CALL MY INSURANCE BUT THEH COULDN'T HELP WITH TOWING. I SPEND $200 JUST TO TAKE IT BACK TO A MECHANIC. WHERE THEN HE SAID MY ENGINE NO GOOD I NEED A NEW ONE. I STILL OWE $5,000 TO THIS CAR! I'VE BEEN PAYING AHEAD OF TIME TO GET PAID OFF. NOW IS NOT RUNNING AND JUST SITTING ON MY DRIVEWAY FOR MONTHS. AND STILL NEED TO PAY IT.

VEHICLE IS BURNING ASTRONOMICAL AMOUNTS OF OIL, EVEN WHEN CAR IS SITTING. CAR RUNS ROUGH AND IDLES AND ACTS AS IF IT WILL STALL OUT. THE ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS HAVE COME ON. CAR ACTS LIKE IT WON'T START AND TAKES A FEW TIMES BEFORE IT ACTUALLY STARTS UP. HAVE REPLACED SO MANY PARTS AND OF COURSE AT 155,000 MILES FOR A 2010 EQUINOX WE DON'T QUALIFY UNDER THE PENDING LAWSUIT. CAR IS PARKED BECAUSE IT USES SO MUCH OIL.

POWER STEERING BECOMES STIFF AND VARIABLE. DOESN'T GO BACK TO CENTER AFTER TURNING. THIS PROBLEM COMES AND GOES.

CODE P0300- CYLINDER #4 MISFIRE, EXTREME BLOW BY FROM INTERNAL FAILURE. WENT INTO COMPLETE SHUTDOWN ON HIGHWAY

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD MY POWER ENGINE LITE COMES ON AND ACTS LIKE IT IS GOING TO CUT OFF , SOME TIMES IT DOES. MY ABS LITE COMES ON AT ANYTIME, WHEN COMING TO A STOP MY BRAKES SLIP AND ACTS LIKE IT DOES NOT WANT TO CATCH, BRAKES ARE NEW! ALSO THE 2010 USES ABOUT 4 TO 5 QT IN BETWEEN OIL CHANGES AND THERE IS NO LEAKS. DEFOGGER DOES NOT WORK AT ALL. AND KNOW HAVING ENGINE PROBLEMS. HAVE CHANGED THE O2 SENSOR STILL SAYS THEY NEED TO BE CHANGED, HAVE CHANGED THE MANIFOLD AND SAYS THAT STILL NEEDS O BE CHANGED, ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON. STABILLIY TRACK LIGHT COMES ON ALL THE TIME AS WELL. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR OVER 6 YEARS!
