Consumer Description

I LOVE MY CAR WAS SO PROUD OF BESSY! I WAS ON MY WAY TO WORK AND IT JUST STOPPED. WOULDN'T CRANK. GOT IT HOME TO BE TOLD THAT IT'S THE TIMING CHAIN. THAT'S $1000-$1500 THAT I DON'T HAVE. ESPECIALLY SINCE I'M TAKING CARE OF MY MOTHER N LAW SINCE MY FATHER N LAW DIED FROM CANCER. AND NOW MY HUSBAND CAN'T WORK DUE TO BEING ALMOST CRIPPLED. I STARTED DOING SOME RESEARCH DUE TO HEARING ABOUT A LOT OF PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICLE AFTER I BOUGHT IT. TURNS OUT THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE, ALMOST EVERYBODY WHO OWNS A CHEVY EQUINOX HAS THE SAME PROBLEM! WHY IS THIS?? WHY HAS THIS NOT BEEN FIXED YET?? WHY KEEP MAKING THE SAME MISTAKE AGAIN AGAIN?? NOW MY CAR IS SITTING IN THE YARD. I HAVE A 7 YR OLD SON THAT I CAN'T EVEN TAKE TO THE DOCTOR WITH NO WAY OF GOING OR THE REST OF MY FAMILY. SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHAT IS CHEVELOT GOING TO DO ABOUT THIS??? I WAS HOPING ONE DAY TO GET A BRAND NEW ONE! PLEASE HELP!!!
