| 2006 | EQUIPMENT | I HAVE A 2006 CHEVY EQUINOX THAT I BOUGHT BRAND NEW. I'VE HAD MULTIPLE PROBLEMS WITH IT. THE FIRST WAS ISSUES WITH IT NOT WANTING TO START. AT THAT POINT IT WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY, AND THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE IGNITION. THE PROBLEM HAS CONTINUED THROUGHOUT THE FOUR YEARS THAT I'VE HAD IT, AND NOW OCCURS ALMOST EVERY TIME I START MY CAR. I'VE ALSO HAD THE HEATER BLOW COLD AIR, AND THE DEALER REPLACED BLOWER DOOR AND ACTUATOR. I CONTACTED GM, WHO AGREED TO PAY HALF OF THE COST. THAT WAS IN JANUARY OF 2009. SINCE THEN, I'VE HAD MULTIPLE ISSUES AS WELL WITH THE KEY GETTING "STUCK" IN THE IGNITION. USUALLY AFTER ABOUT 10 MINUTES OF MOVING STEERING WHEEL BACK AND FORTH, IT WILL FINALLY COME OUT. THIS HAPPENED MOSTLY THIS PAST SUMMER WHEN IT WAS REALLY HOT OUTSIDE. I'VE ALSO HEARD CLICKING NOISES COMING FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE RANDOMLY WHEN I TURN MY CAR RIGHT AFTER MY CAR HAS BEEN PARKED AND RUNNING FOR AWHILE. ANOTHER ISSUE IS REVVING UP FOR NO REASON. BOTH TIMES I WAS SITTING AT A STOP LIGHT AND THEN STARTED TO TURN LEFT AND CAR REVS UP AND SEEMS TO GET STUCK IN GEAR THEN EVENTUALLY KICKS OUT. AFTER READING THE OTHER REPORTS, I AM NOW SCARED THAT THE NEXT ISSUE IS GOING TO BE MY CAR SHUTTING DOWN WHILE I'M DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY. I WORK IN HOME HEALTH, THEREFORE I AM DRIVING MY CAR ALL DAY EVERYDAY. I ALSO HAVE A TODDLER AND WORRY ABOUT HIS SAFETY IN MY VEHICLE. *TR |
