I HAVE AN 06 CHEVY EQUINOX. OVER THE PAST MONTH IT HAS BEEN RANDOMLY SHUTTING OFF AS YOU ARE DRIVING. THE FIRST TIME I WAS AT A STOP LIGHT AND IT SHUT OFF. AFTER A FEW TRIES TO START IT BACK UP I CALLED MY HUSBAND HE CAME TO GET ME AND IT STARTED BACK UP. WE TOOK IT TO OUR MECHANIC THAT DAY. HE SAW NOTHING WRONG. THERE WAS NO CODE THAT CAME UP TO IDENTIFY A PROBLEM. SINCE THEN IT HAS SHUT OFF MULTIPLE TIME WHILE IN MOTION. THE ENGINE WILL SHUT DOWN AND THE TC LIGHT WILL COME. I FOUND THIS FORUM AND READ OTHER COMMENTS OF THIS HAPPENING. I LIVE IN FLORIDA AND HAVE TO GO OVER A BRIDGE EVERY DAY TO GO TO WORK. I AM SCARED THIS MIGHT HAPPEN WHILE ON THE BRIDGE OR HIGHWAY. GM SHOULD REALLY LOOK IN TO THIS PROBLEM IF IT IS HAPPENING TO MORE THAN A FEW PEOPLE. I DON'T HAVE MONEY TO GIVE AWAY IF NO PROBLEM CAN BE SEEN BY A MECHANIC NOR CAN I AFFORD A NEW CAR. SOME ONE PLEASE HELP OR GIVE ME AN ANSWER. *TR

Engine, Jan 7, 2014
WAS IDLING IN CAR AT MILITARY CHECK POINT TO GET TO SCHOOL IN 2012 AND FANS UNDER HOOD GOT LOUD TO COOL IT DOWN. WENT DEAD SEVERAL TIMES. LET SIT 45 MINUTES. CHECKED RADIATOR AND WAS FULL OF WATER. BARELY MADE IT HOME, GOING DEAD ALL THE WAY. TOOK TO DEALER AND SAID COULD NOT FIND PROBLEM AT ALL CHARGED ME OVER $100 TO CHECK IT. FOR MONTHS IT WOULD DO THIS OFF AND ON. THEN THE FAN UNDER THE HOOD STARTED COMING ON AND WOULD NOT GO OFF. THEN THE CAR WOULD RUN WHEN I TURNED THE KEY OFF. NOW IN JANUARY 2014, THE HEATER IS BLOWING COLD AIR AND I HAVE NO DEFROST AND THE ENGINE TEMP. GAUGE IS ALL OF THE WAY TO HOT. I CAN ONLY RUN IT FOR 15 MINUTES THEN IT GOES DEAD AND I HAVE TO WAIT 45 MINUTES FOR IT TO COOL DOWN TO GO ANOTHER 45 MINUTES. REALLY BAD FOR ME BECAUSE IT TAKE ME 30 MINUTES TO GET TO WORK SO I HAVE TO ADD ANOTHER 45 MINUTES.....THAT'S THERE AND THEN 45 EXTRA HOME. *TR

Electrical system, Engine, Sep 24, 2013
MY 2006 CHEVY EQUINOX HAS NOW HAD THREE SEPARATE INCIDENCES OF SPONTANEOUS ENGINE TURN OVER. THE FIRST WAS IN MAY OF 2012, NEXT IN APRIL 2013, FOLLOWED BY AUGUST 2013. ON EACH OCCASION; THE CAR WAS PARKED AND LOCKED AT THE TIME THAT IT SPONTANEOUSLY STARTED. WITH EACH EVENT I HAD TO PUT THE KEY IN THE IGNITION, PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE, MOVE IT A COUPLE FEET, FOLLOWED BY SHIFTING TO DRIVE AND MOVING FORWARD. IT WAS ONLY THEN THAT I WAS THEN ABLE RETURN THE CAR TO PARK AND TURN OFF THE ENGINE. MY CAR IS NOT EQUIPPED WITH A REMOTE STARTER KIT, AND NEVER HAD ONE IN THE PAST. I HAVE NO IDEA WHY THE CAR STARTED ON IT'S OWN, AND CERTAINLY CONSIDER THIS TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE. *JS
Engine and engine cooling, Equipment, Jul 22, 2013
MY 2006 CHEVROLET EQUINOX HAS A UN -FIXABLE [PER DEALER] A.C. PROBLEM. DRIVING IN FLORIDA WITH TEMPS IN THE HIGH NINES IN TRAFFIC THE TEMP INSIDE THE CAR IS MUCH HIGHER. BEING IN OUR SEVENTIES I NEARLY PASSED OUT WHILE DRIVING. THIS PROBLEM IS RAMPART ON GOOGLE WITH HUNDREDS OF THE SAME ISSUE. TRYING TO DRIVE WITH IN-CAR TEMP. OVER 112 IS SCARY AND NOT SAFE. *TR
Seat belts, Service brakes, Engine, Jul 11, 2013
I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH MY BRAKES GRINDING NOT WANTING TO STOP AND TOOK TO A SHOP SAID MY BRAKES WERE LIKE BRAND NEW BUT YET IT DOESN'T WANT TO STOP MAKES GRINDING NOISES. I REPLACED THE STARTER IN MY CAR FOUR TIMES AND AM STILL HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS STICKS WHEN STARTING OR DOESN'T WANT TO WORK AT ALL AND THIS WAS IN A TWO MONTH PERIOD. MY FRONT DRIVERS SEATBELT WOULD NOT RELEASE THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES IN THE LAST COUPLE WEEKS. I HAVE ALSO HAD PROBLEMS WITH BEARINGS HAD TO HAVE THEM REPLACED. ALSO WITH THE STEERING WHEN DRIVING IT HAS A MIND OF ITS OWN WHEN I CHANGE LANES WANTS TO KEEP GOING TOWARD THE DITCH.WHY ISN'T ANY OF THIS BEING ADDRESSED BY CHEVROLET I BOUGHT THIS CAR BECAUSE OF NO RECALLS BUT APPARENTLY CHEVY DOESN'T WANT TO FIX THESE ISSUES AND IT COULD KILL SOMEONE !! ALSO HAVE PROBLEMS WHEN IT RAINS ALSO IT DOESN'T DO WELL AT ALL IN RAIN AT ALL AND I HAVE BRAND NEW TIRES ON MY VEHICLE. *TR
Electrical system, Engine, Jul 10, 2013
IN JANUARY 2012 WITHIN THE FIRST WEEK OF BUYING OUR 2006 EQUINOX, WE STARTED HAVING IGNITION PROBLEM. WE WOULD TRY TO START IT AND IT WOULD JUST KEEP CRANKING UNTIL IT WOULD FINALLY START. WE TOOK IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP OF PURCHASE AND THEY TRIED REPLACING SEVERAL PARTS BUT THIS DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. WE HAVE HAD IT IN AT LEAST 6 TIMES FOR THE SAME ISSUE AND FINALLY WERE TOLD UNLESS IT JUST ALTOGETHER DOESN'T START THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO LOCATE THE PROBLEM. IT IS NOW JULY 2013, STILL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AND NOW HAVING INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS LIKE, COOLING FANS WON'T WORK, WINDOW WILL NOT GO UP OR DOWN, RADIO BUTTON ON STEERING WHEEL CHOOSING WHEN IT WANTS TO WORK, GAS MILEAGE IS TERRIBLE AND HAS BEEN FROM THE START. AFTER RESEARCHING SEVERAL WEB PAGES ABOUT COMPLAINTS WE ARE NOW FINDING OUT THAT THESE PROBLEMS MAY GET WORSE!!! ALSO WE HAVE ALSO FOUND OUT THAT THIS ISSUE IS DUE TO THE PCM WHICH HAS BEEN RECALLED IN THE 2005 EQUINOX AND SEVERAL OTHER CHEVROLET PRODUCTS BUT UNFORTUNATELY NOT THE 2006!!! ACCORDING TO OTHER ACCOUNTS, THE PCM CAN AFFECT MANY OTHER COMPONENTS. HOPING CHEVROLET WILL STEP UP AND DO THE RIGHT THING. I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN A CHEVY FAN BUT AT THIS RATE I AM STARTING TO LEAN TOWARDS FORD AS I HEAR THEY BACK THEIR PRODUCTS! WHAT A SHAME! THE SAD PART IS THIS IS OUR ONLY VEHICLE AT THE MOMENT AND THIS REPAIR IS NOT AFFORDABLE SO IF A RECALL DOESN'T HAPPEN SOON I'M NOT SURE WHAT WE'LL DO! *TR
Engine and engine cooling, Service brakes, Jul 8, 2013, crash
I WAS TRAVELING AT ABOUT 40 MPH DOWN A MAIN ROAD, WHEN I TRIED TO STOP AT A RED LIGHT. UPON PRESSING THE BRAKE, THE WHOLE BRAKE SYSTEM LOCKED UP, AND THERE WAS RESISTANCE. I SWERVED TO AVOID THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME, AND RAN INTO A MAILBOX ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. PRIOR TO THIS, MY CAR EXPERIENCED OVERHEATING AND SMOKE THAT BLOCKED MY VIEW, AND I WAS TOLD THAT I HAD A BLOWN HEAD GASKET. I AM MENTIONING THIS BECAUSE I SEE THAT OTHERS HAD THE SAME ISSUE. GM NEEDS TO FIX THESE PROBLEMS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY HURT. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY CHILD TO SCHOOL ONE MORNING AND THE HEATER STARTED BLOWING OUT COLD AIR. SOME TIME LATER, I TOOK MY CHEVY EQUINOX TO MY MECHANIC. HE SAID IT WOULD COST AROUND $1,000 TO REPAIR. THIS WAS A SHOCK BECAUSE MY MECHANIC IS VERY REPUTABLE; I HAVE USED HIM FOR YEARS. HE NEVER TRIES TO CHEAT ME OR ANY OF HIS OTHER CUSTOMERS. WHEN HE QUOTED ME THAT PRICE, THAT'S WHEN I KNEW SOMETHING WAS SERIOUSLY WRONG WITH MY CAR. I DON'T HAVE THAT KIND OF MONEY - I'M A SINGLE MOTHER OF 2 KIDS AND I WAS LAID OFF FROM MY JOB A FEW MONTHS AGO. I CALLED CHEVROLET 3 TIMES AND NOBODY WOULD HELP ME. IN THE MEANTIME, I DID SOME RESEARCH TO SEE IF ANY OTHER CONSUMERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS SAME PROBLEM. I FOUND OVER 600 COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER DRIVERS ABOUT THIS EXACT SAME ISSUE. I TOOK MY CAR TO A MECHANIC AGAIN AND WAS ADVISED THAT CHEVY/GM HASN'T ISSUED A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM (CAR HEATER BLOWING COLD AIR) BECAUSE IT WOULD NOT BE COST-EFFECTIVE FOR CHEVY TO FIX IT. THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT CHEVY/GM HAS KNOWN ABOUT AND, FROM WHAT I'VE SEEN, THE PROBLEM EXISTS IN CHEVY EQUINOX'S FROM ALL DIFFERENT MODEL YEARS. NOT ONLY WILL I NEVER BUY A CHEVY AGAIN, I AM FILING A CLASS-ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST CHEVY/GM FOR FAILING TO ISSUE A RECALL TO FIX A KNOWN PROBLEM. EVEN IF I DID HAVE THE MONEY, I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR SOMETHING THAT THIS COMPANY KNOWS IS A PROBLEM. *TR
