NHTSA Complaint #10762906 — 2010 CHEVROLET EQUINOX

WAS OUT RUNNING ERRANDS WITH OUR TWO CHILDREN AND THE VEHICLE WAS RUNNING A LITTLE ROUGH - ALMOST DIED TWICE WHILE AT STOPLIGHTS. HAD PREVIOUSLY VOICED MULTIPLE CONCERNS TO DEALERSHIP ON OIL CONSUMPTION RECALL. NO LOW OIL NOTIFICATION ON VEHICLE WOULD EVER DISPLAY, AND WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT THIS MODEL WAS NOT EQUIPPED WITH A NOTIFICATION (WHICH WE THOUGHT WAS VERY ODD). FINALLY GOT VEHICLE HOME AND AS I PULLED INTO DRIVEWAY THE VEHICLE DIED; WENT TO RESTART AND MADE AWFUL SOUND WOULDN'T TURN OVER. WAS COMPLETELY OUT OF OIL WITH OVER 1,500+ MILES LEFT UNTIL RECOMMENDED OIL CHANGE. TALKED TO GM CS AND TURNS OUT OUR VEHICLE SHOULD BE GIVING A COMPUTER NOTIFICATION ON THE DASHBOARD FOR LOW OIL. THANKFUL IT DIDN'T HAPPEN DURING MY ERRANDS SINCE IT COULD HAVE DIED AT A BUSY INTERSECTION OR ON THE INTERSTATE AND WE WOULD HAVE BEEN PUT IN DANGER.
