SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRIC
WHEN I FIRST HIT THE BRAKES, THE CAR DID NOT BRAKE. THERE WAS A GRINDING SOUND FOR ABOUT 4 SECONDS AND THEN THE BRAKES GRABBED HARD AND THE VEHICLE STOPPED. THEN THE LIGHTS CAME ON STATING THE ANTI LOCK BRAKES AND TRACTION CONTROL DO NOT WORK. THE NEXT TIME I STARTED THE CAR, THE LIGHTS FOR THE ANTI LOCK BRAKES AND TRACTION CONTROL WERE NOT ON. I WAS DRIVING 50 MPH. TRAFFIC STOPPED FAST. I SLAMMED ON MY BRAKES, BUT THE BRAKES DID NOT WORK. THERE WAS THE GRINDING SOUND AS BEFORE, AND THEN I CRASHED INTO THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM, SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRIC
SINCE 2008, I HAVE EXPERIENCED THE FOLLOWING PROBLEMS WITH BRAKES GRINDING & SQUEAKING EVEN AFTER GETTING THEM REPAIRED (FRONT AND REAR BRAKES / ROTORS REPLACED). A COUPLE OF DAYS AFTER REAR BRAKES REPLACED THE ABS & TC LIGHTS WERE ON. I HAD TO HAVE SENSORS REPLACED. I HAVE ALSO EXPERIENCED CAR NOT STARTING AND SOUNDING LIKE IT IS FLOODING, AFTER LETTING CAR SIT FOR A FEW MINUTES IT THEN STARTS. THERE IS ALSO A POPPING NOISE THAT COMES FROM THE BACK OF CAR AFTER STARTING THE ENGINE. WHEN CHANGING SHIFT FROM PARK TO DRIVE CAR OCCASIONALLY JERKS & SHOOTS FORWARD. WHEN PRESSING THE GAS, THE CAR TAKES A FEW MOMENTS THEN JERKS FORWARD. NOW I'M BEING TOLD THAT THE TRANSMISSION IS GOING BAD & I HAVE TO PAY $350 FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST TO DETERMINE IF THEY CAN REBUILD THE TRANSMISSION OR HAVE TO REPLACE IT, WHICH WILL COST BETWEEN $1800 TO $3000. THERE IS A 2005 CHEVY EQUINOX POWER TRAIN: AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE RECALL BUT MY CAR IS NOT COVERED. NOTE: VEHICLE HAS BEEN SERVICED REGULARLY ACCORDING TO THE MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE TIMETABLE PROVIDED BY THE MANUFACTURER. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
MY 2005 CHEVY EQUINOX TENDS TO STALL. THE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON, THE TC LIGHT COMES ON, AND THE ENGINE LIGHT WITH A DOWN ARROW COMES ON. THIS USUALLY HAPPENS AFTER IT RAINS. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP MANY TIMES FOR THIS PROBLEM, AND THE FIRST TIME THEY JUST RESET THE COMPUTER. THE SECOND TIME THEY SAID IT WAS A LEAK IN THE SUNROOF THAT LEAKS DOWN TO THE COMPUTER WIRES. THIS IS A CHEVY PROBLEM FROM THE DAY WE BOUGHT THE CAR. NOW THE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY, AND IT WILL COST TOO MUCH TO FIX. USUALLY I CAN TURN OFF THE ENGINE AND TURN IT BACK ON AND IT FIXES IT SELF, BUT SOMETIMES I HAVE TO WAIT TILL IT STOPS RAINING AND LET THE CAR DRY OUT. NOW THE ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON, AND STALLS OFTEN. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE CAUSE IT MAKES THE ENGINE STALL WHILE DRIVING NO MATTER WHAT THE SPEED. I HAVE NOTICED THAT MANY OTHERS HAVE THE SAME ISSUE, AND COULD CAUSE A WRECK IN HIGH TRAFFIC AREAS. *TR

AT 8 WEEKS OF OWNING IT....THE BRAKES WERE SQUEALING........TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP......THEY SAID IT IS NORMAL FOR THESE CARS AND BRAKES TO DO THAT........THEY SAID THEY TURNED THE ROTORS AND GRAVITATED THEM AND SAID IT WOULD FIX THE PROBLEM......ON MY WAY HOME....THE CAR AIR CONDITIONER WAS BLOWING OUT HOT AIR......I ONCE AGAIN CALLED THE DEALERSHIP......THEY SAID IT WAS MOST LIKELY CAUSED BY LOW FREON........HOWEVER 2 WEEKS LATER IT STARTED MAKING A FUNNY NOISE........TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT.......TOLD IT I WAS TO CONTINUE TO DRIVE IT......IT WOULD LOCK UP THE ENGINE.........IT COST 918.00 TO HAVE IT REPAIRED.......(CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO LET THEM KNOW OF THIS PROBLEM....REFUSED TO LISTEN AND MAKE CUSTOMERS HAPPY........ IN MY PURCHASE......THEY HAD A CERTIFIED MECHANIC INSPECTORS SIGNED AND DATED FORM SHOWING THAT ALL ITEMS HAD BEEN CHECKED AND THEY WERE IN TIP TOP SHAPE........NOW I AM WONDERING DO THEY JUST GO THROUGH AND PLACE A CHECK MARK IN ALL THE BOXES BECAUSE SOME OF THE BOXES WERE CHECKED AND THEY ARE NOT INCLUDED IN MY CAR..........

2005 CHEVY EQUINOX. CURRENT MILES APPROX 85,000. WAS REAR ENDED IN MAY 2010. THE CAR WAS REPAIRED AND RETURNED IN JUNE 2010. WITHIN APPROXIMATELY 2 WEEKS, FOUND NOTICEABLE GRINDING NOISES FROM BRAKES, LOW TO NULL BRAKING ABILITY. ABS AND TRACKING LIGHTS ARE ON. IN JUNE, DEALER FOUND ABS SENSOR AND STEERING COLUMN WERE BROKEN. DEALER SAID IT WAS A RESULT OF RECENT CAR ACCIDENT BUT SEVERAL INSURANCE ADJUSTERS HAVE SAID THE ACCIDENT WAS TOO MINOR TO CAUSE SUCH DAMAGE AND BELIEVE IT IS MANUFACTURER DEFECT. NO INSURANCE COMPANY WILL TOUCH THIS CLAIM. THEY BELIEVE IT IS A KNOWN DEFECT IN GMC PARTS. *TR

TIRES
WHILE TRAVELING TO WORK ON HIGHWAY 100 EAST BOUND IN MD. MY 2005 CHEVY EQUINOX STARTED HAVING VIBRATIONS IN THE STEERING WHEEL. I WAS TRAVELING IN THE NUMBER 2 LANE ON A 3 LANE HIGHWAY WHEN THE VEHICLE THEN PULLED ME TO THE LEFT. I COUNTER STEERED TO THE RIGHT AND THE VEHICLE PULLED ME INTO A HARD LEFT STRAIGHT INTO A GUARD RAIL. I COULD NOT CONTROL THE VEHICLE AFTER IT PULLED ME TO THE LEFT WHICH RESULTED IN MY CRASH INTO THE GUARD RAIL AND ANOTHER CAR HITTING ME AFTERWARDS. AFTER THE ACCIDENT I EXITED THE VEHICLE AND LOOKED AT THE TIRES LOCATED ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE VEHICLE BECAUSE I THOUGHT THAT THIS WAS THE PROBLEM. BOTH TIRES ON THE DRIVER SIDE WERE FLAT AND OFF OF THE RIMS. I COULD UNDERSTAND THE FRONT TIRE BEING IN THIS CONDITION BUT THE REAR TIRE WAS NOT NEAR ANY IMPACT. THAT PORTION OF THE CAR DIDN'T RECEIVE ANY DAMAGE WHICH MAKES NO SENSE TO ME. A COUPLE OF MONTHS PRIOR TO THIS ACCIDENT I HAD SEARS INSTALL 4 BRAND NEW GOODYEAR WEATHERHANDLER FUELMAX TIRES. I FEEL AS IF THESE TIRES OR THE INSTALLATION ALMOST ENDED MY LIFE AND I WANTED TO REPORT IT SO THAT THIS DOESN'T HAPPEN TO SOMEONE ELSE. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
MY 2005 CHEVROLET EQUINOX STALLED AND WOULD NOT RESTART IN TRAFFIC FOR APPROXIMATELY THE 5TH TIME IN THE PAST THREE YEARS. THE FIRST FOUR TIMES WERE FINALLY DIAGNOSED BY GM AS A FAULTY COMPUTER THAT WAS GETTING WET DUE TO A BAD SEAL FROM THE SUNROOF. BECAUSE OF THESE PROBLEMS, I LEASED ANOTHER CAR FOR MY WIFE WHILE I WAS DEPLOYED TO IRAQ SO I WOULD NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT HER SAFETY. THE CAR HAS BEEN RUNNING FINE FOR THE PAST YEAR THAT I HAVE BEEN HOME. I HAVE ROUTINELY CHANGED MY OIL AND INSPECTED FLUIDS AND AIR PRESSURES ETC. ON VEHICLES. THE LATEST OCCURRENCE HAPPENED ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK. IT STALLED WAS DUE TO WHAT THE DEALER IS CALLING INTERNAL DAMAGE. SPEAKING TO A CLAIMS AGENT FOR GM I WAS INITIALLY TOLD TO HAVE DEALER CALL FOR AN AUTHORIZATION. THEY REFUSED TO HONOR MY EXTENDED GM WARRANTY AND ARE DEMANDING $1700 JUST TO TEAR IT DOWN TO SEE WHAT THE FAULT OR PROBLEM IS. I HAVE CONTACTED GM EXT WARRANTY AND THEY HAVE FINALLY AGREED TO SEND A INSPECTOR. NOW THEY ARE DEMANDING PROOF OF OIL CHANGES. I CONTACTED MY OIL CHANGE SERVICE CENTER AND THEY JUST SOLD TO A NEW OWNER AND CANNOT ACCESS OLD DATABASE PAST 1 APR 2010...THIS VEHICLE HAS BROKE DOWN (STALLED WITH NO POWER) ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS IN VERY DANGEROUS AREAS WITH LIMITED ROOM TO PULL OVER DUE TO MOUNTAINOUS TERRAIN AND NUMEROUS BIG RIGS TRAVELING THE ROUTE. NO ACCIDENTS OR INJURIES HAVE OCCURRED YET, BUT THIS VEHICLE IS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN. AFTER THIS LATEST INCIDENT, I HAVE RESEARCHED ONLINE AND HAVE FOUND NUMEROUS EXAMPLES OF OTHER PEOPLE HAVING SIMILAR INCIDENTS WITH THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE/MOTOR. I AM GENUINELY CONCERNED FOR MY FAMILY'S SAFETY, AND FURTHERMORE, DEEPLY DISTURBED THAT I HAVE BEEN PAYING FOR A GM EXTENDED WARRANTY THAT THEY DO NOT WISH TO CHOOSE TO HONOR. WHAT KIND OF PRESSURE OR RECOURSE CAN YOUR OFFICE APPLY TO GM BEFORE THEY ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR A PRODUCT THAT IS DEFECTIVE AND A SAFETY HAZARD. I ACTUALLY LIKE THIS CAR, BUT IT HAS TURNED INTO NOTHING BUT A LEMON. *TR

STRUCTURE:BODY
I HAVE A 2005 CHEVROLET EQUINOX THAT LEAKS WATER INTO THE SPARE TIRE COMPARTMENT WHENEVER IT RAINS OR VEHICLE GOES THROUGH CAR WASH. I HAVE SEEN SEVERAL GALLONS AND IT SLOSHES AROUND AND SATURATES THE CARPET IN THE BACK FLOORBOARD. GM HAS A BULLETIN 2198426 WHEREAS IT ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT SEALED PROPERLY AT THE FACTORY AND WATER WILL COLLECT IN THE SPARE TIRE COMPARTMENT BUT WILL NOT FIX UNLESS THE CUSTOMER(ME) PAYS. I CAN SMELL THE MOLD AND MILDEW IN MY VEHICLE AND FEEL THIS CAN ONLY BE BAD FOR MY HEALTH BECAUSE WE ARE TALKING ABOUT CONTINUOUS MOLD REGENERATION. I HAVE TALKED TO LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND CALLED GM ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND THEY WANT ME TO PAY TO FIX. I HAVE SEARCHED THE INTERNET AND ALL YEARS BETWEEN 2005 AND 2007 ARE LISTED AND MANY MANY COMPLAINTS. *TR
