After engaging the right turn signal and turning the wheel in that direction, then turning it back to the center for some reason makes the left turn signal click on for three clicks. The frontal collision warning system is way too sensitive when creeping up to stopped traffic it will beep when there is no risk of collision. And finally the blindspot detection sometimes warns the driver even when there's traffic coming from the opposite direction on the road when there's no risk of collision.

Defective turn signal stalk -- often after I engage the right turn signal and complete a right turn, the left turn signal will flash for approximately three blinks, falsely alerting others in my vicinity that I'm preparing for a left turn or lane change. Additionally, it is often difficult to engage the right turn signal, as the stalk won't stay engaged, making it difficult for me to signal a right turn or lane change.

I bought an Equinox EV on August 13, 2024. After purchasing, I found the infotainment system and central cluster became very hot after driving for about 45 minutes. The infotainment screen even was too hot to be touched. The dealer checked the car on 08/20, found error codes related to Front Faceplate Temperature Control Circuits, as the attached DTC report shows. Instead of fixing the errors, the dealer erased the codes, and told me comparing with a new like vehicle, the screen temperature is normal. I used the car next day, both cluster and infotainment screens became overheating again after about 45 minutes driving. I measured the temperature of the infotainment screen, it reached about 150 oF. This is certainly not normal. The overheating has posed safety risk to me. The central cluster and infotainment system can be damaged by the overheating and causes serious accident someday.

The windshield has such a severe glare from reflecting the dashboard in most lighting during the day that it is extremely difficult to see. This poses a safety issue because it is difficult to see pedestrians or other road hazards.
