Example complaints

“I need to report that when driving on these icy roads that my awd Equinox feels like it swerves? It feels like it takes me into the other lane most of the time. Now, I don't know if its the awd causing it but other awd vehicles that I've driven have never did it this bad to the point that it feels almost like my back end starts going sideways.”
NHTSA complaint #11173416, filed 2019-01, 155,300 miles“For the past year I have been going to the dealer for my regular car check-ups and each time would complain that my tire pressure light would come on the kept checking the tire and found nothing wrong. They finally told me that the tires were doing that due to the weather to just ignore the warning. All of a sudden I noticed that the side wall of my tires were separating. I took it in and ask them why was this happening, I can see maybe one tire but all four. …”

NHTSA complaint #10597469, filed 2014-06, 48,000 miles“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. Had that replaced! Then a few hours after driving it that same tire sensor goes out again. This is the worst vehicle that general motors as made!!!!! …”
NHTSA complaint #11323271, filed 2020-05, 129,304 miles“When slowly turning the steering wheel to the right all the way to almost the very end and while advancing at a very low speed, there's a small high pitch noise and thunk of a sound that can be heard from the front-left of the vehicle, if the radio and ventilation is quite down. It does not sound healthy and is quite disturbing knowing that there's only 3500km on this 2010 Chevrolet Equinox ls would there be other complaints likewise? And please investigate. Thank you”
