Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Air pressure sensor on rear driver tire indicated 28 pounds. When the mechanic turned the cap to remove it from the valve stem, the stem broke off (due to corrosion). Dealer says the wrong caps were on it it - it should have been metal caps. I bought this vehicle from this dealership but they say they have no responsibility. After getting the sensor and valve stem replaced ($86), I brought the tire back and put it back on. Checked remaining valve stems and another one broke off on the front passenger side. Another $85 and I will eventually have to replace the other two. …”
NHTSA complaint #10468327, filed 2012-07, 95,225 miles“Found tire partially flat after being parked overnight,( approx 14 lbs air left in tire) drove vehicle to gas station nearby to fill with air. Filled tire with air,when removing the air chuck form valve stem the tip of the valve stem broke off ejecting the valvecore and thus the tire rapidly started loosing air. After further investigation, I found that the valve stem was not made of steel or brass but of aluminum. I had to have the whole valve component replaced at my local dealer and the tire was checked for leakage and since the valve was replaced it has maintained air. …”
NHTSA complaint #10264167, filed 2009-04, 35,210 miles“Have had my 07 Equinox for 1 month and 1 week and the area in the back where the spare tire is has filled with water more than once. Last night I was driving it in the rain and a very loud vibrating noise came and went as I was driving the entire trip. I took it to the dealer and they couldn't find a leak. I also found out that my bearings to my alternator are worn. Not very happy with my expensive purchase that is turning into more expense as I didn't get a warranty. Who needs a warranty on a 2 year old car? Well apparently you need one on a 2007 Equinox. Very disappointed in my purchase.”
NHTSA complaint #10289503, filed 2009-10, 70,000 miles“Extensive water intrusion in the spare tire well. This has been occurring more often in the last year. Approximately 4-5 inches of water is filling following a rain storm.”
NHTSA complaint #10519573, filed 2013-06, 5,000 miles“The contact owns a 2007 Chevrolet Equinox. In september 2010, the contact discovered that the front driver side tire was flat. The vehicle was taken to a local mechanic who stated that the valve stem had broken off. The rear driver side valve stem had also broken off. The mechanic stated that it was normal for the valve stems to break. The failure mileage was 38,000 and the current mileage was 54,000.”
