NHTSA Complaint #11067096 — 2011 CHEVROLET EQUINOX

"TAKATA RECALL" MY VEHICLE IS HAVE PROBLEM WITH OIL CONSUMPTION, EXHAUST FUMES COMING OUT OF THE HEATER AND A RATTLING NOISE. I TOOK IT INTO THE SHOP IN THE CAR MECHANIC INFORMED ME THAT THAT THE PROBLEM IS NOT WORTH FIXING BECAUSE THE YEAR MAKE AND MODEL KEEPS GIVING PROBLEMS. HE SAID HE WORKED ON THE SAME TYPE OF VEHICLE MULTIPLE TIMES IN EVERY 2011 CHEVY EQUINOX HAS HAD THE SAME PROBLEMS. HE SAID IT'S NOT WORTH PUTTING THE MONEY INTO AND THAT THAT YEAR WAS A FAULTY CAR AND TO FIND OUT IF THERE WAS A RECALL BECAUSE OF THE NEGATIVE REPORTS. I LOOKED ONLINE NO RECALL SO I'M WONDERING WHY MULTIPLE VEHICLES ARE HAVING THE SAME SITUATION. HE SAID HE SPOKE WITH MY CAR DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THAT THIS PROBLEM IS VERY COMMON. AND JUST TODAY MY VEHICLE ENGINE STARTED SMOKING. I'M WORKING ON GETTING A PROBLEM.
