2018 Chevrolet Equinox body complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 17 of 17, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Windshield was not properly sealed from the manufacture. While driving on the interstate, seats and mirrors randomly moved. At one point the seat was so close to the steering wheel, causing husband's stomach to touch the wheel. Thus causing the inability to turn and control the steering of vehicle. Mirrors moved randomly out of position, causing inability to see blind spots while driving on the interstate. I purchased this car on 5-15. This first incident occurred 5-24. The second incident happened 6-10 again while driving. The rain inside the unsealed windshield caused corrosion on electrical wiring and connections. There is corrosion also inside the body. This brand new vehicle is rusting from the inside out. There will always be issues with this car either electrical or body.
While driving on freeway sunroof of panoramic roof shattered and glass fell into car. This was not caused by an accident with any vehicle. I was never hit by any object to cause sunroof to shatter. Weather conditions were dry, cool, and cloudy.
We were driving on I-75 at 70mph. We heard a loud noise and pulled over on the side of the highway. Got out and discovered that the rear panel above the bumper on the driver sad had torn off. We did not hit anything and we believe it just blew off the car. We filed an allegation with gm and were denied. On the phone the customer service person said that we were denied due to prior bumper damage. There was no prior damage and gm will not put it in writing why they denied our claim. Also they will not give us a copy of their report or the independent investigation report saying that it is private. We were lucky that the part did not hit anybody behind us as that could have been disastrous. Nobody else pulled over behind us, so we have no witness as to what happened.
2018 equinox premier sunroof gave out on me 5 weeks after purchasing brand new. Gm has had my car for 3 months and has not found a fix. It doesn't matter if the car was stationary or motion. The sunroof and the privacy screen will stop opening/closing. They have replaced all the wires and the entire sunroof and new motors and it still doesnt work. Gm customer care is not working with me and says that basically they won't have a time when I will get my car back. They aren't helping me with a trade in either. The dealership is helping me (bravo at las cruces nm). But gm themselves aren't taking any responsibility when it solely is their responsibility. I have heard of atleast 8 other cases online with the same issue. Some were fixed with a computer reboot but mine cannot get fixed whatsoever.
Right rear door will not open from inside or outside due to defective latch. The original latch, the first replacement latch and the second replacement latch do not allow passenger to exit the vehicle as the door is stuck shut. This is dangerous is someone needs to exit the vehicle quickly. Local chevy dealership will replace the second latch this month (july 2018). The problem happens when the car is stationary.
I was driving to work and my panoramic sunroof exploded. Nothing hit it, no one in front on me, no one passed. Me and no one was behind me. It sounded like a gun shot and then the sunroof completely shattered. The car dealer that I bought it from did take care of all the expenses! But after all, it was not my fault and I have only had the car for 6 months. This is very scary and thankfully I did not get cut. I have a new sunroof but I am very afraid that it is going to happen again
