NHTSA Complaint #10944355 — 2011 CHEVROLET EQUINOX

THE 2011 2.4 L ENGINE EQUINOX IS UNDER RECALL, EXCEPT FOR MINE. I OWN A 2011 2.4 L ENGINE EQUINOX THAT HAS EVERY PROBLEM AS THE ONE THAT IS BEING RECALLED. GM IS TELLING ME THAT THERE ARE NO DEFECTIVE PARTS ON MY CAR, EVEN THOUGH MY CAR HAS BEEN STALLING WHILE DRIVING, WHILE TURNING, WHILE STOPPING. MY CAR HAS EVERYTHING WRONG WITH IT THAT IS LISTED ON THE RECALL. THE PVC SYSTEM, WATER IN THE AIR BOX. OUR MECHANIC TOOK OUT 1/2 CUP OF WATER OUT OF THE AIR BOX YESTERDAY. IN ADDITION, THE CAR CONSUMES MASS AMOUNTS OF OIL. THIS VEHICLE WILL GIVE YOU NO WARNING AND THEN JUST STALL OUT. LAST YEAR, MY CAR STALLED WHILE DRIVING AND THEN A REDUCED ENGINE POWER LIGHT CAME ON. I ENDED UP HAVING TO REPLACE THE THROTTLE BODY AT NOT EVEN 90,000 MILES. THIS CAR POSES A THREAT TO THE PERSON DRIVING AS WELL TO ANY OTHER CAR THAT MAY BE NEAR IT AS THERE IS NO WARNING GIVEN THAT STALLING MAY OCCUR. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS COME EITHER. NO LOW OIL LIGHTS. NOTHING. I TOOK MY CAR IN YESTERDAY BECAUSE IT STALLED 7 TIMES ON MY ROUTE TO WORK. MY MECHANIC WAS ABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM AND FOUND THE PROBLEMS WITH THE 2011 EQUINOXES. I HAVE BEEN TURNING AND JUST HAD MY CAR SHUT OFF, I HAVE PUSHED THE GAS PEDAL AND HAD NOTHING HAPPEN. I HAVE HAD MY CAR STALL OUT TO CHECK THE OIL AND FIND NO OIL ON THE DIPSTICK. I HAVE STOPPED FOR TRAFFIC AND MY CAR WILL JUST SHUT OFF. GM HAS TOLD US ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION THERE ARE NO RECALLS ON MY CAR. JUST OTHER 2011 2.4 L ENGINE EQUINOXES REPORTING THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR
