THE 2012 CHEVY EQUINOX STALL CONSTANTLY BELOW 30 MPH. IT STALLS AT LEAST 2 TO 3 TIMES TRYING TO BACK OUT OF GARAGE TO MOVE IT 10 FEET. THE IDLE STARTS OFF SMOOTH BUT WITHIN 10 SECONDS THE EQUINOX STARTS IDLING ROUGH AND JERKING, THEN IT STALLS. WHEN STOPPED AT STOP LIGHT THE EQUINOX JERKS BACK AND FORTH, WHEN I GIVE IT GAS TO GO, THE EQUINOX JERKS FORWARD AND USUALLY DIES ON ME. IT BURNS A LARGE AMOUNT OF GAS AND OIL, I HAVE TO REFILL THE OIL UP AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK.I HAVE CHANGED THE OIL MYSELF AND FOUND THE OIL IS SATURATED WITH METAL FILINGS. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND OFF REPEATEDLY. I HAVE ALREADY REPLACED THE BATTERY TWICE BECAUSE OF A DEAD CELL. I HAVE REPLACED THE FRONT RIGHT TIRE DUE TO A BLOW-OUT AT 24,000 MILES AND DEALERSHIP REFUSED TO REPLACE IT,...

WHEN STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN OR RED LIGHT SOMETIMES THE ENGINE TRIES TO CUT OUT, AND THE CAR JERKS LIKE IT IS TRYING TO STAY CRANKED. I HAVE A FRIEND THAT HAS A GM TERRAIN AND HERS DOES THE SAME THING. WHEN TURNING THERE IS A KNOCKING IN THE STEERING. THE SPEAKERS HAVE A RATTLING SOUND LIKE THEY ARE BUSTED, BUT IT DOESN'T DO IT ALL OF THE TIME. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALER, BUT OF COURSE THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT, THE CAR NOW HAS 23,000 AND IT STILL HASN'T BEEN FIXED. (THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE SEPTEMBER OF 2011 WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR). *TR
