Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2013 CHEVY EQUINOX I HAVE ALREADY CHANGED THE CAMSHAFT SENSOR. A YEAR LATER MY CAR STARTED TO CUT OFF WHILE IDLE AT STOP LIGHTS. I TOOK IT TO AUTO ZONE AND WAS TOLD FROM THE TEST IT WAS MY CAMSHAFT SENSOR. WHILE CHANGING IT I NOTICED A LARGE AMOUNT OF OIL IN THE SENSOR AREA. THE MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT IS NOT GOOD. FROM THIS WE DISCOVERED THE SENSOR IS NOT THE ISSUE. I STARTED TO DO RESEARCH ONLINE AND FOUND MANY USER FROM 2011 TO 2013 WHO ARE ALL HAVING THIS ISSUE WORD FOR WORD. CHEVY NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. HTTPS://WWW.CARGURUS.COM/CARS/DISCUSSION-T37952_DS622117
