2010 CHEVROLET EQUINOX Electrical System Problems

The climate controls, including the seat warmers, located on the control panel directly below the radio/stereo controls on my 2010 Chevy Equinox stopped working. As a result, the ability to control the temperature and direction of heated/cooled air was lost. I tolerated the conditions for several seasons, winter being the toughest due to temp and the need for defrost, until buying a new car (as an addition, not a replacement vehicle). As my oldest child became of age to begin driving, I've attempted to prepare the car for his driving and safety. In researching how to repair this malfunction, I came across a recall that addresses this exact problem; however, upon taking my Chevy Equinox to my local Chevy dealership, I discovered that my VIN is not on the list for this repair. The coincidence that my car falls in the category of vehicles included for this recall (Bulletin No.:...

The contact owns a 2010 Chevrolet Equinox. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the turn signals and the speed odometer were inoperable. The vehicle was taken to the dealer. The contact was informed that there were no open recalls on the VIN for the failure. Additionally, the contact was advised to take the vehicle where the vehicle was purchased for the repair. The contact stated that the vehicle had several failures since purchasing the vehicle three years ago. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

When I turn off my Chevrolet Equinox and leave the key in the ignition the vehicle attempts to restart itself numerous times. The lights on the dash all come on for a brief moment and you can hear it act like it’s going to start but then everything cuts off a second later. This has occurred everytime I turn my vehicle off and do not remove the key. I am always sitting in the vehicle when the key is in the ignition.

Engine cylinders & seals are faulty and easily crack causing the car to STOP /STALL WHILE IN DRIVE! I NEARLY HIT A SEMI-TRUCK BECAUSE THE CAR STOPED MID DRIVE AND THE CAR JERKED SO HARD THAT THE WHEEL JERKED TO THE SIDE AND THEN LOCKED!! AS THE CAR CONTINUED TO GLIDE IN A CIRCLE BECAUSE IT DIDNT STOP ALL THE WAY I COULD NOT TURN THE WHEEL TO AVOID THE SEMI, WHAT SAVED MY LIFE WAS THE CLEAR ROAD THAT ALLOWED THE SEMI TO GO AROUND ME!! MY CAR LITERALLY SAT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET ACROSS THE YELLOW LINE! This issue persists and corrupts the ENTIRE fuel system, catalytic conveyer, resonator, and timing chain SIMULTANEOUSLY! This causes each owner to replace the entire engine because it simply can not be fixed. Fixing or repairing one of the components does NOT fix the issue or stop the engine from...

Visibility: Defroster/Defogger 2009-12-18 Recall#09V489000 Software computer module Center console will malfunction causing the radio, heater, radio, a/c and defroster to quick working. Putting the vehicle to be a safety hazard when not working, can result in crash without warning. Dealer refuses to fix.

Reported to GMC about how my car radio goes out, a/c would turn itself on and blow hot air also the door locking itself after being unlocked. I was told there were no issues reported on what I was calling for to only read simething different online. So I took it to the dealership and told them how Air went from working to not working and took to dealership and was told I had a leak in my evaporator core. I informed them I had the freon checked and the level was correct and also it didn't need to be charged but the compressor wasn't coming on. Also called an independent mechanic who said that year was full of issues and if my levels were correct that I didn't have a leak but something else going on. Took to dealership on 5/16 also called mechanic the same day. I made...

The dealer and the manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The contact referenced NHTSA Campaign Number: 09V489000 (Visibility). The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 103,000.

2 DAYS AFTER DRIVING THIS 2010 CHEVY EQUINOX OFF THE LOT. THE POWER STEERING PUMP GOES OUT. THE POWER STEERING HAD A WINDING NOISE SINCE IT WAS REPLACED, AND THEY TOLD ME THERE MAY JUST BE AIR IN THE LINE. AFTER RIVING IT THAT WAY FOR A MONTH TOOK IT IN TO GET THAT LOOKED AT AND THEY ENDED UP REPLACING THAT AND SAID IT WAS A FAULTY PUMP. THEN DAYS LATER ONE OF THE TIRE SENSORS GOES OUT.

IT HAD NEW TIRES WHEN WE BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE AND NOT EVEN 8 MONTHS THE TWO REAR TIRES WERE MAKING THE REAR END SLIDE ALL OVER THE ROAD AND AFTER INVESTIGATING THE PROBLEM I FOUND THE TWO REAR TIRES HAD WIRES SHOWING ON THE...

I HAD MY EQUINOX REPAIRED UNDER THE RECALL FOR OIL CONSUMPTION, YET IT IS STILL BURNING OIL. THE HEAT AND AC ARE NOT WORKING PROPERLY, TO GET HEAT I HAVE TO TURN THE DIAL BACK AND FORTH AND MAYBE IT WILL WORK MOST OF THE TIME I HAVE TO DRIVE ABOUT A HALF A MILE FOR IT TO BLOW HEAT. THE AC IS JUST NOT WORKING AT ALL. THE INFO PANEL IN THE CENTER OF THE DASH WILL GO OUT AND COME BACK ON LATER. WHILE DRIVING, THE CAR WILL JUST SLOW DOWN LIKE I'M NOT PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR AT ALL. THE TRANSMISSION SEEMS TO GET STUCK IN A GEAR CAUSING THE RPMS TO RISE AND STAY UNTIL I TAKE MY FOOT OFF OF THE ACCELERATOR. THE CAR MAKES A CLICKING SOUND WHEN TURNING. IT SHAKES AT 60 MPH. ALSO I HAVE REPLACED HEADLIGHTS 2 TIMES IN THE LAST YEAR.

HAVING TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS , IT WONT DRIVE FRONTWARDS .

ITS A TICKING NOISE WHEN STARTED UP THEN LIGHTS FROM THE DASH BOARD TO THE HEAD LIGHTS, FLICKS OFF AND ON AND THE HORN GOES OUT AT THE SAME TIME. WHEN DRIVING THE IDLE DONT SEEM TO PICK UP SPEED THE TRANSMISSION SEEMS TO HAS PROBLEM IT MAKE THIS HORRIBLE LOUD NOISE AND THE CAR DO SEEM TO DRIVE RIGHT. THE CV JOINT IS GOING BAD FOR THE 5 TIME AND THE BARS THE WHEELS MAKE THIS LOUD NOISE I ONLY HAD THIS CAR FOR 5 YRS (CHEVY EQUINOX 2010) AND MOST I HAD TO REPLACE, NOW ITS GOING BAD AGAIN. THE TRANSMISSION IS THE BIG PROBLEM NOW I HAVE TO REPLACE AGAIN I MIGHT AS WELL GET AN WHOLE NEW CAR

CAR WILL STOP AFTER PRESSING THE BREAK. WIPERS NO LONGER WORK. NOW CAR WON'T START DUE TO TIMING BELT

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE DOORS ARE LOCKING AND UNLOCKING THEMSELVES, RADIO AND HEAT TURNS OFF AND ON, BLINKERS NOT WORKING,HEADLIGHTS FLASH ON AND OFF BY THEMSELVES, AIRBAG, STABILITY CONTROL AND ABS FLASH ON AND OFF ON DASH.

TOOK TO HAVE VEHICLE SCANNED AND ALTERNATOR IS READING AT TOO HIGH VOLTAGE AND REVIVED 15 ERROR CODES ALL RELATING TO SPEED SENSOR, ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODEL MALFUNCTION, POWER TRAIN CONTROL MODULE AND CAMSHAFT POSITION CIRCUIT ERRORS ETC.

I BOUGHT THE CAR 2 YEARS AGO, IN WHICH THE VEHICLE HAD/HAS NONCONFORMED ISSUES SINCE THE IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE SALE OF PURCHASE. THE CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP (AND IS CURRENTLY THERE) FOR 2 YEARS. I HAVE BEEN PAYING FOR MY OWN TRANSPORTATION(LYFT, CAR RENTALS, ETC) IN ADDITION TO MY CAR PAYMENTS FOR OVER A YEAR.

I BOUGHT THIS TRUCK BUT THEY ARE SAYING THEY FIXED STUFF THAT NOBODY HAS TOUCHED. ATTACHED WILL BE THEIR RECALL. AND SECOND A PHOTO SHOWING NOBODY FIXED IT, LITTLE LONE TOUCHED IT FOR REPAIR. SCAMMING CUSTOMERS. I CANNOT GET MY TIRES TO SYNC TO THE VEHICLE EITHER. BOTH SAFETY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO DECELERATE AND CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP.

VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY WITH MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR.

ORIGINAL RECALL 09 V4 89000 WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE FIXED VISIBILITY ISSUE. CAR WAS TAKEN IN AT THE TIME OF THE ORIGINAL RECALL. THE VEHICLE IS SHOWING SYMPTOMS OF THE EXACT SAME ISSUE AS BEFORE WHERE DEFROSTER IS NO LONGER WORKING BECAUSE OF CONTROLS NOT FUNCTIONING. RADIO IS ALSO OUT ALONG WITH POSSIBLE OTHER UNKNOWN ELECTRICAL ISSUES. WE'VE TURN THE CAR ON AND OFF SEVERAL TIMES HOPING IT WAS JUST A GLITCH, HOWEVER IT APPEARS THE PROBLEMS OF THE FIRST RECALL ARE BACK AGAIN. DRIVING THE VEHICLE POSE A THREAT HAS WE LIVE IN WEATHER WE'RE HAVING TO HAVE CONTROL OVER THE DEFROSTING IS NEEDED. DEFROSTER AND PANEL DO NOT WORK BECAUSE OF LACK OF ELECTRICAL CONTROL. MY WORRY IS THAT THIS IS SYSTEMIC, THE THE ISSUE IS REOCCURRING, EVERY SO YEARS OR SO, THAT OTHER ISSUES WILL CONTINUALLY MAKE THIS AN ISSUE IN THE FUTURE.

I COULD NOT TURN ON MY DEFROST ON WHILE I WAS DRIVING I HAD TO PULL OVER AND WAIT FOR IT TO KICK BACK ON SO IT COULD DEFROST ENOUGH FOR ME TO SEE WHERE I WAS GOING TO GET HOME I HAVE THE VIDEOS
