NHTSA Complaint #10655324 — 2006 CHEVROLET EQUINOX

WE JUST PURCHASED OUR 2006 CHEVY EQUINOX ON 11-15-2014 AN AFTER LEAVING THE DEALERSHIP WE WERE CAUGHT IN A SNOW STORM AND ATTEMPTED TO TURN ON THE HEAT TO WARM UP INSIDE. THE HEAT WASN'T HOT AND THE DEFROST WOULD NOT WORK EITHER AND SO NEED LESS TO SAY WE HAD TO USE A/C AN CRACK THE WINDOWS AN CONSTANTLY WIPE WINDSHIELD TO BE ABLE TO SAFELY DRIVE HOME. THAT BEING SAID I BEGAN TO DO RESEARCH ON THE PROBLEM AN AS SEARCHING I AM FINDING OUT THAT THERE ARE NEUROMAS COMPLAINTS OF THE CHEVY EQUINOX HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM I HAVE DESCRIBED. READING THE COMPLAINTS I HAVE FOUND OUT THE REPAIRS ARE COSTLY AND GM HAS NOT MADE ANY ATTEMPTS TO RECALL THE FAULTY PARTS. AN SO I FELT THAT I HAD A DUTY TO STEP UP AN JOIN THE PATRONS WHO ARE ALSO OR HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM. UNFORTUNATELY GM NEEDS TO STEP UP AN TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE PROBLEMS BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED BECAUSE OF FAULTY PARTS. *TR
