The contact owns a 2017 Chevrolet Equinox. The contact stated that the vehicle was leaking oil as oil was found on the garage floor.

The contact stated that while his daughter was driving the oil warning light illuminated. The vehicle was towed back to the independent mechanic. The independent mechanic started the vehicle and noticed oil was leaking from the rear main seal. The engine and transmission needed to be removed to replace the rear main seal. The vehicle had not been repaired. The contact stated that the mechanic informed him that there was a recall for the failure. The contact stated that he called the dealer and manufacture and it was confirmed that the VIN was not included in a recall. The contact was referring the failure to an unknown manufacturer recall. The approximate failure mileage was 58,000.

So I was driving home from work which is a 28 minute drive, when I was almost 2 miles away from home the car started to make a funny noise and it started to smell like gas inside from the vents.When I turned off a major street the the car slowed completely down without any warning on the dashboard and luckily I was right in front of a autoshop so I hurried up and pulled in. As soon as I pulled in, the car started to get smoky in the inside so I hurry up and jump out wasn't sure if the car was going to start a fire. When I go inside the shop it was a lady with the same car as mine but just gold and she was complaining that oil was pouring out. The owner of the shop asked me what's wrong because I was a little distraught and I told him my car just slowed down and start smoking inside of the car. He said what ok ill take it right in to see what's wrong. 10 mins later he comes out with a video on his phone showing oil leaking all around the the engine, Trans and front of the car all the way to the muffler. He said this is common with these Equinox with the 4 cylinder engine, the rear main seal did not hold and all the oil leaked out. I bust out crying, I didn't even make it to 3yrs yet and still owe 12,000 on the car. I keep up with oil changes and the car never said I was low on oil I checked, it showed 40%. The owner say calm down we can call the dealership to see if they have a recall. So we call they knew exactly what the problem was and ask how many miles I had and he say sorry your your 2,000 miles over your warranty, I'm sorry I can't do anything for you. The owner of the shop say sorry I see this all the time with these Equinox and its ridiculous we just found out the gold one have the exact same issue. I'm writing to you because I did some research and this is a common issue with this model. I seen a lot of the rear main seal fail when the temperature drop and the water build up where the cover of the engine is and freeze inside and the seal don't hold.

Air bags, Seat belts, Oct 6, 2021
This was previously reported on March 10 2021 and I was given case #9-6591373301. It was a lease car that was returned to the dealership on March 31, 2021. After hitting a pothole in March 2020, the airbag light stayed on. The dealership did not take care of the problem and I was told at that time there were no recalls for that problem. I was told I could get it fixed and save the bill. Once an investigation was started and it was determined that indeed there was a problem, I should be entitled to be reimbursed. To date there have been no recalls although my mechanic had to replace both seat belts because replacing the driver's seat belt did not correct the problem. The diagnostic showed there was a seat belt problem and when they were removed you could see they were defective. When I returned the car I gave the service department the seat belts and to date, I have heard nothing. They did say because the defective seat belts had been replaced they would not be able to determine if the seat belts I turned in had a problem, which made no sense. Is that why no one bothered to contact me?

While the vehicle is being driven a message will appear service tire monitor system and all gauges on the dash do not work, the radio, heating a/c also stops.The message quickly changes to service airbag. (Photos of both messages attached) Issue started Nov of 2020 Vehicle has been seen by Gordon Chevrolet MI 4 times for service and they are unable to find the issue. We did inform them that if we moved the driver seat just a bit that seem to reset it. Doesn't seem to be as responsive to that now. At one point the BCM was mentioned but still as of today not resolved or fixed. My concern is when the vehicle says service airbag and you are driving it down the road I don't know that this airbag will work if something were to happen. The dealership is well aware of the ongoing unresolved issue and I have another appointment for November 1,2021 so they can look at it again.

Wipers stoppeped working while driving while doing 70mph on the interstate do to a linkage issue that is already known about but not recalled.
Power train, Aug 25, 2021
I heard some scraping sounds while driving. It sounded like something dragging on the ground. Checked and saw nothing. Continued on driving then a few miles later saw some light smoke in rear view mirror. Pulled to shoulder of interstate and lifted hood to see smoke from behind engine. Vehicle was towed to auto dealer where it was purchased. No warnings of any kind from the systems. Service department identified the problem as a hole in the transfer case which was covered under the CPO extended warranty. Chevrolet has not been able to provide the parts for the dealer to fix the vehicle since the beginning of May and is now saying the November 12, 2021 expected delivery of the parts probably will not happen. No customer courtesy vehicles are available and Chevy Corporate customer relations recommended that I rent a GM product from Enterprise and once the vehicle is repaired submit the rental bill for reimbursement. The vehicle is sitting in the back of the Curry Chevrolet lot collecting dust should the NHTSA want to take a look at it. It should be there until GM can "find" the parts to fix the almost 5 model year old vehicle.

The contact owns a 2017 Chevrolet Equinox. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the contact heard a loud grinding sound coming from the passenger’s side front of the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, but the mechanic was unable to determine the cause of the failure. The failure persisted and the vehicle was brought back to the same dealer to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that the rotors needed to be cut. The mechanic cut the rotors however after several months the failure recurred. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 67,000.

The engine/timing chain and heads for my 2017 Chevrolet Equinox failed. I only had this vehicle for 4 years 4 months with only 113,000 miles. I feel my safety was put at risk because out of nowhere my vehicle began jerking and bucking back in forth very badly. I had my vehicle totally diagnosed with Gateway Tire Center and Service, which cost me $283.17, just for a diagnosis. My vehicle has not been inspected due to this vehicle was brand new with zero miles when I purchased it on October 30, 2016. All maintenance has been kept up regularly on my vehicle. Before my vehicle all of sudden quit running there were no indications that there was a problem until the engine light popped on after it started the jerking and bucking back in forth. I am highly upset with the dealership who sold me this vehicle because I know they knew this vehicle would not operate any more after a certain amount of mileage. I should not have to be trying to car shop this early on for a new vehicle. I am only 13000 to 14000 miles outside of my warranty with this vehicle it is no way I should have to either purchase a new engine or buy a new vehicle. I need something done about this immediately.

On May 24, 2021, my 2017 Chevrolet Equinox was sitting in my driveway. While my son was vacuuming the car out he heard a boom and jumped out. The rear window had shattered. No one was around and nothing had hit it. The temperature outside was 78 degrees and there was a breeze blowing so it was not due to the heat. Called Chevrolet and they said they have never heard of this happening and it isn't a manufacturer defect but a quick search online and others have had this happen in their 2017 Chevrolet Equinox.

HAD ROUTINE OIL CHANGES AND ONLY DRIVE THE CAR APPROXIMATELY 5 MILES TO AND FROM WORK DAILY. ON A VERY FRIGID WINTER DAY WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM WORK, MY CAR STARTED SHAKING, AND OIL LIGHT CAME ON, THEN THE ENGINE LIGHT AND CAR CAME TO A STOP. GOT IT TAKEN TO CHEVROLET DEALER WHO SAID THEY HAD 3 OTHER EQUINOXES IN THE SHOP THE LAST 2 DAYS OF FRIGID COLD WITH THE SAME ISSUE. FIX FOR A REAR MAIN SEAL REPAIR, AFTER THEY HAD DONE A DIAGNOSTIC INSPECTION AND MULTI POINT VEHICLE INSPECTION. THIS REPAIR COST US OVER $2000. OUR MECHANIC ADVISED US TO REPORT THIS BECAUSE OF SEEING SEVERAL MODELS WITH SAME ISSUE, INCLUDING MY FATHER'S CHEVROLET EQUINOX WHO WAS IN THE SHOP 3 DAYS BEFORE OURS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. PLEASE HELP US. THANK YOU

PURCHASED THE VEHICLE APRIL 2019. HAVE PROOF OF 6 OIL CHANGES AND PROPER MAINTENANCE WHILE DRIVING FOR LESS THAN 2 YEARS, BUT DUE TO NO WARNINGS OF LOW OIL ON THE VEHICLE AND WITH A CONFIRMED DEFECT STATED BY MY MECHANIC. THIS 2.4 L ECOTEC ENGINE HAS MASSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION DEFECTS. THIS VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. IT STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET WHILE I WAS DRIVING. FURTHER RESEARCH CONFIRMS THIS DEFECT BEYOND THE STATED 2010- 2013 RECALL.

I JUST DROPPED MY KIDS OFF AT SCHOOL AND WAS HEADED HOME WHEN MY CAR STARTED STALLING, AND OIL PRESSURE LOW WARNING CAME ON. A FEW MINUTES DOWN THE ROAD, THE ENGINE POWER LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CAR TURNED OFF WHILE DRIVING. I STARTED IT AGAIN LONG ENOUGH TO ROLL INTO A PARKING LOT BESIDE ME. I'VE HAD MY CAR TOWED 3TIMES, FIRST TO A CHEVY DEALERSHIP WHO QUOTED ME A $1,400 FIX FOR A SEAL REPAIR, AFTER THEY HAD DONE A DIAGNOSTIC INSPECTION. I WAS ALSO TOLD THEY COULD ASSIST IN A TRADE IN BECAUSE OF THE REPAIRS NEEDED. I WOULD FIRST NEED TO PAY FOR IT TO BE FIXED. I GOT TWO OTHER OPINIONS AT RESPECTABLE GARAGES WHO SAID IT WAS MY REAR MAIN SEAL AND BOTH QUOTED $2,400. I HAD TO GET A LOAN TO PAY FOR REPAIRS. FOLLOWING THE FIX, THE MECHANIC TEST DROVE IT AND SAID THE BRAND NEW SEAL BLEW AGAIN. THEY DID RESEARCH AND SAW THERE IS A MANUFACTURER MALFUNCTION WITH THE ENGINE AND TO COMPLETE THE TASKS TO RECONFIGURE MY ENGINE SO IT COULD WORK PROPERLY AND THE SAME PROBLEM NOT HAPPEN, IT WOULD BE AN ADDITIONAL $800 BUT THERE'S NO GUARANTEE IT WOULDN'T HAPPEN AGAIN. WITH MY FIRST STOP BEING THE CHEVY DEALERSHIP, I AM UPSET I'VE HAD TO PAY OVER $3,000 ON MY CAR AND NOW IT'S NOT EVEN GUARANTEED TO BE FIXED. CHEVY MECHANICS SHOULD HAVE CAUGHT THIS ISSUE WHEN I ORIGINALLY TOOK MY CAR THERE. IT'S BEEN A MONTH NOW I'VE BEEN WITHOUT A CAR. AS A SINGLE MOTHER, I'VE SPENT A LOT OF MONEY HAVING TO RENT CARS AND USING UBER/LYFT WHEN THIS PROBLEM SHOULD HAVE BEEN ADDRESSED A MONTH AGO WHEN I ORIGINALLY SOUGHT THE DEALERSHIP' HELP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT OIL WOULD LEAK OUT OF THE VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS AS THE ENGINE LIGHT WOULD ILLUMINATE. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD JERK FORWARD AS THE SERVICE STABILITRAK WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. ONE DAY, THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER ADDING OIL INTO THE VEHICLE, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO JERK UNCONTROLLABLY AND A BLUEISH SMOKE BEGAN TO EMIT FROM THE ENGINE. DUE TO THE FAILURE, THE CONTACT HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO EAST HILLS CHEVROLET OF ROSLYN( 1036 NORTHERN BLVD, ROSLYN, NY 11576) WHERE AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST WAS PERFORMED AND THEY DISCOVERED THAT HER ENGINE SEALS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.

I WAS IN A MCDONALDS DRIVE THRU WHEN I NOTICED A STRONG PETROLEUM SMELL. I PULLED INTO A PARKING SPACE AND FOUND OIL GUSHING FROM THE ENGINE. I TURNED THE ENGINE OFF AND HAD IT TOWED TO MY LOCAL CHEVY DEALER. THE DEALER FOUND THAT THE PCV SYSTEM HAD CLOGGED AND CAUSED THE CRANKCASE TO PRESSURIZE, THEREBY BLOWING THE REAL MAIN SEAL. FORTUNATELY I WAS NOT ON THE HIGHWAY AT THE TIME OR I COULD HAVE LOST ALL THE OIL AND SUFFERED AN ENGINE SEIZURE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. I GOT NO INDICATION OF A PROBLEM OTHER THAN SMELL AND VISUAL EXAMINATION. THE REPAIRS WERE QUOTED AT $2320. AFTER COMPLAINING TO GM CUSTOMER SERVICE THEY PROVIDED COST ASSISTANCE WHICH REDUCED THE PRICE TO $954 PLUS TAX. ON FURTHER RESEARCH I FOUND THAT THERE IS A RECALL ON THE 2010-2014 CHEVY EQUINOX FOR THIS SAME PROBLEM AND THE WARRANTY WAS EXTENDED TO 10 YEARS OR 120,000 MILES. THE 2015-2017 CHEVY EQUINOX HAS THE SAME 2.4 LITER ECOTEC ENGINE BUT GM HAS NOT SEEN FIT TO EXTEND THE RECALL TO THOSE YEARS. AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT I HAD 83,773 MILES ON THE VEHICLE AND ALWAYS HAD IT SERVICED AT THE DEALER I BOUGHT IT FROM, SARCHIONE CHEVROLET IN RANDOLPH, OHIO. FURTHER CONTACT WITH GM GOT THEM TO PAY ANOTHER $400 (WHICH I HAVE NOT RECEIVED YET) BUT THEY REFUSED TO PAY THE ENTIRE AMOUNT. THIS IS A DANGEROUS PROBLEM THAT GM IS AWARE OF BUT NOT ACKNOWLEDGING BY EXTENDING THE RECALL FOR THE ADDITIONAL 3 YEARS THAT THIS ENGINE WAS AVAILABLE IN THE EQUINOX.

I WAS ON THE EXPRESSWAY AND WAS GOING AROUND A CURVE AND NOTICED THAT MY POWER DECREASED AND FELT LIKE MY CAR WAS NOT MOVING AS FAST. I LOOKED AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON MY DASH WAS ON AND IT SAID ENGINE POWER REDUCED, AND THE 2ND SCREEN SAID TO CHECK STABILITRAK. I GOT OFF AT THE NEXT EXIT AND PULLED RIGHT INTO A PARKING LOT. WHEN I TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE AND TURNED IT BACK ON IT STILL HAD THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON, BUT THE SERVICE STABILITRAK WAS OFF. I HAD IT TOWED TO MY PARENTS AND THE NEXT DAY IT WAS TOWED TO A REPAIR SHOP. THE MECHANIC INSPECTED IT AND IT IS AN OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE. HE ADVISED ME TO GET A NEW ENGINE WHICH WOULD COST 5,000 FOR A USED ONE. THIS IS A 2017 VEHICLE, WHICH IS FAIRLY NEW AND HAS ABOUT 70,000 MILES ON IT. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND SHOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED!!!! THE OIL WAS RECENTLY CHANGED AND WHEN IT WAS CHECKED, THERE WAS NOTHING SHOWING ON THE DIPSTICK. THERE WAS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT ON THIS SAME ISSUE AND IT IS A WELL KNOWN. I HAVE RESEARCHED AND READ MANY PEOPLE WITH THE SAME ISSUE, SOME AS RECENT AS JANUARY AND FEBRUARY 2021 AND SOME WERE ALSO LOCATED IN MICHIGAN. I AM A SINGLE MOM ON A LIMITED INCOME AND DON'T HAVE A VEHICLE OR THE MEANS TO FIX MY EQUINOX. IF THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE, WHY HAS GM SAT BACK AND DONE NOTHING? IF THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE, WHY HASN'T THERE BEEN A RECALL AND SOME OF THESE PEOPLE WOULDN'T BE WITHOUT A VEHICLE WITH THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS NO NEEDED IN REPAIRS.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY TO AN APPOINTMENT AND MY ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE ENGINE STARTED TO REDUCE SPEED I WAS ABLE TO GET TO A DESTINATION AND PULL OFF AND THEN IT STATED LOW OIL PRESSURE TURN OFF ENGINE. I HAD IT TOWED TO A MECHANIC AND THEY SAID ALL THE OIL DRAINED OUT THE INTAKE MANIFOLD WAS PLUGGED UP AND COULDN'T BREATHE AND BLEW OUT THE MAIN SEAL AND SAID I COULD HAVE BLEW UP MY ENGINE BY CONTINUING TO DRIVE IT. THIS IS A REPAIR HE SAID HE SEES OFTEN IN THESE EQUINOX VEHICLES AND HE REACHED OUT TO A FELLOW GM MECHANIC WHO IS LOOKING AT IT AND SAYS THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES AND SHOULD BE A RECALL. THIS REPAIR IS VERY EXPENSIVE AND REQUIRES EITHER THE ENGINE OR TRANSMISSION TO BE REMOVED TO FIX THE PART AND THEN PUT BACK IN THIS IS HAPPENING ON VEHICLES FAIRLY NEW MINE IS BARELY REACHING 4YEARS OLD THIS YEAR WITH 27, 268 MILES ON IT

I LIVE IN A STATE THAT HAS COLD WEATHER, DIPPING WELL BELOW FREEZING. I WENT TO GET AN OIL CHANGE WHEN MY CAR PROMPTED ME, AND MUCH TO MY SURPRISE THE MECHANICS FOUND A SEVERE OIL LEAK. I WAS TOLD NOT TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE ANY LONGER AND TO HAVE IT TOWED IMMEDIATELY TO A REPAIR SHOP. I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT IT FROM, AND THEIR MECHANIC JUST CALLED ME. ACCORDING TO HIM, THE PCV HAD MOISTURE IN IT THAT FROZE, CAUSING AIR PRESSURE BUILD UP THAT BURST AND DAMAGE A MAJOR OIL VALVE. HE STATED THAT THE PCV HOLE ISN'T BIG ENOUGH TO AVOID THESE ISSUES, AND THAT ONCE THEY REPAIR IT, THEY WILL DRILL THE HOLE TO MAKE IT BIGGER SO IT DOESN'T HAPPEN AGAIN. MY CONCERN IS, IF THESE VEHICLES ARE SOLD NATIONWIDE, AND ARE SO POPULAR, WHY ARE THEY NOT THINKING OF THESE POSSIBLE ISSUES? OWNERS SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY OVER $2100 FOR A REPAIR DUE TO AN ISSUE IN MANUFACTURING!
