NHTSA Complaint #10899694 — 2010 CHEVROLET EQUINOX

WE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IN DEC 2014 AT 42,000 MILES AS A CERTIFIED PRE OWNED $15000 CASH. THE VEHICLE STARTED EXPERIENCING ENGINE TROUBLE IN JULY 2016 IT WE WERE IN THE PROCESS OF OF DIAGNOSTICS FOR EXCESS OIL CONSUMPTION AND ENGINE REPAIR. AFTER THE CARE BROKE DOWN ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE BACKSEAT. AUG 2016 THE CAR STALLS AGAIN ON THE HIGHWAY WITH MY CHILDREN IN IT. THE TRANSMISSION HAS FAILED. WE HAVENT EVEN OWNED THE VEHICLE FOR 2 YEARS. IT ONLY HAS 76,000 MILES ON IT. BUT GM SAYS ITS PAST THE 5 YEAR WARRANTY MARK BY 8 MONTHS SO THEY WONT HELP. I AM NOT THE ONLY PERSON HAVING THESE ISSUES WITH THIS MAKE AND MODEL. THERE ARE STORIES ALL OVER THE INTERNET WHERE PEOPLE HAVE STALLED ON HIGHWAYS FROM THIS ISSUE! IT NEEDS TO GE RECALLED. THIS IS A DEATH TRAP. WE COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED OW WORSE. UNFORTUNATELY THATS WHAT IT TAKES NOW A DAYS FOR A COMPANY TO CARE.
