NHTSA Complaint #10510705 — 2010 CHEVROLET EQUINOX

PURCHASED 4/2010 1 AT A RED LIGHT, CAR IDLED REALLY ROUGH, THEN ALL OF THE DASH LIGHTS CAME ON. I DROVE STRAIGHT TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY CHECKED IT OUT AND SAID I NEEDED A NEW FUEL PUMP. I HAD ABOUT 47,000 MILES. 2. OIL CONSUMPTION - THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED I WAS HEARING A FUNNY NOISE WHEN I TURNED LEFT COMING FROM THE ENGINE. MY BOYFRIEND CHECKED THE OIL THE NEXT MORNING TO FIND NO OIL ON THE DIPSTICK. WE PUT IN 2 QTS THEN WHEN THE DEALER SHIP OPENED I TOOK IT IN. THEY TOLD ME THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY INTERNAL OR EXTERNAL LEAKS SO BRING IN WEEKLY FOR OIL CONSUMPTION TEST (I WAS ABOUT 1500 MILES SINCE MY OIL CHANGE THAT WAS DONE AT THE SAME TIME THE FUEL PUMP WAS REPLACED) DROVE OUT OF TOWN TO VISIT FAMILY (ABOUT 2000 MILES AFTER OIL CHANGE) AFTER DRIVING 200 MILES HEARD THE NOISE AGAIN CHECKED THE OIL.......2 QTS LOW. ADDED OIL AND TOOK TO LOCAL DEALERSHIP. NO PROBLEMS FOUND RELATED TO OIL, BUT DID FIND ANOTHER ALERT THAT NEEDED TO BE COMPLETED WHEN I GOT HOME RELATED TO THE WATER PUMP TENSIONER. GM CUSTOMER SERVICE AGAIN , BUT ONLY WAS TOLD TO WAIT UNTIL MY NEXT SCHEDULED OIL CHANGE AND START CONSUMPTION TESTS AGAIN. 3. I POD JACK - WORKED FINE FOR THE FIRST 2 YEARS, BUT THEN WOULD CAUSE ALL CENTER CONSOLE LIGHTS TO GO OUT, COULD NOT OPERATE RADIO OR A/C. 4. STALLING - I HAVE ONLY HAD THIS PROBLEM ONCE BUT IT WAS AS I WAS TURNING LEFT ACROSS 3 LANES OF TRAFFIC! 5. JERKY TRANSMISSION - THE FIRST TIME THIS ISSUE HAPPENED IT JERKED SO HARD I THOUGHT I HIT SOMETHING. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD, LIKE OTHERS IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION "LEARNING" ME. THE TRANSMISSION CODES WERE UPDATED AND PROBLEM ONLY OCCURS OCCASIONALLY 6. DRIVERS SEAT LUMBAR SUPPORT AIRBLADDER - HAS POPPED AND HAD TO BE REPLACED TWO TIMES. *TR
