NHTSA Complaint #11500411 — 2016 CHEVROLET EQUINOX

First noticed my car had a slight rattle when accelerating. I was driving about 35 and then the engine cut out on me. I got it restarted but when I did, check engine light came on, my stabilitrack light came on, and my car went in what the shop called “limp mode.” Towed the car to the shop where they reported the engine was short 3.5 quarts of oil (last oil change was approximately 3500 miles prior to issue). Codes the vehicle was throwing were camshaft exhaust performance and fuel pressure regulator performance. Aforementioned rattling noise was the timing chain kit. Shop noted high oil consumption with no oil leaks at the time of inspection. Shop recommended replacing camshaft actuators and solenoids, as well as timing chain kit. Shop noted it wasn’t an entirely uncommon issue that they’ve seen with these vehicles.
