    A little over a month ago, i began experiencing an issue with my 2006 chevy equinox. The heat stopped working. The fan would work and blow air - but no heat. I took my vehicle to a gm dealership to have them look at the issue. Immediately upon telling them the symptoms, they diagnosed my vehicle without even looking at it. The service rep told me that it was "known issue" with the equinox, that almost 4 out of 5…

    In july of this year, it was a 100 degree day in charleston, and my wife had our 2 years old daughter in her car seat. My wife had the airconditioning on, and the car running, and she checked the mail, for some reason, the locks on the doors engaged, and my daughter was locked in the car. I immediately called the dealer, and i brought the car in for service. They had my vehicle for over a week. They returned the…

    When turning off the vehicle the key will not release from the ignition and can not be removed. After about 30 seconds you can hear a click and then the key will release and can be removed, but until you hear the click it can not be removed from the ignition. *tr

    I filed a different report earlier for the same vehicle. Now the vehicle is starting on its own, if the key is left in the ignition when you turn it off, about 30 seconds to 1 minute later the car will start with no one behind the wheel. It will continue to try to start until you pull the key out. It is just the key in the ignition, no key chain hanging from it. Last week apr 29,2014 the car started and ran for 10…

    Collision alert system flashes red and the equinox brakes grab on and off, sometimes once and sometimes several times for no apparent reason - distance from other vehicles ahead is more than adequate, speed is moderate, no approaching cars. It seem that the system taps the brakes and then releases . This has happened 5 to 6 times even when no vehicles are in front and the driving conditions are normal - roads clear…

    First off, sometimes my vehicle when in park acts like it may turn off, but doesn't. Can hear/feel the vibrations like its about to. Secondly, the main reason i'm on this page, the a/c. It just stopped working out of the blue and making a noise. I take it in and told the condenser has a leak and needs replaced as well as the condenser which is making the noise. Wow, quoted from one place $1,[redacted] i only got a…
