The vehicle has ongoing and worsening electronic and safety-related issues. The fuel range and fuel economy fluctuate abnormally and frequently, sometimes even while the vehicle is stopped. The infotainment screen has experienced intermittent black areas/partial blackout while driving, affecting system reliability. Recently, the automatic transmission began hesitating during the initial gears, behaving abnormally and requiring me to reduce speed for the vehicle to respond properly. This occurs consistently. These issues have been reported multiple times to the dealership and GM with no resolution, and communication has stopped. I am concerned the vehicle is unsafe to drive and could fail unexpectedly.

check engine light keeps coming on for emissions system. When I take it to Bergstrom Dealership they tell me they are not sure how to fix the problem.
On Th, Nov 6 ~1700, the 25 Equinox EV being driven encountered an electric drive failure and brake failure, including friction brakes. This Equinox EV is essentially still brand new with 3900 miles and no accident history. The vehicle was driven off the EB SR 528 exit ramp to Narcoossee Rd in Orlando and driven to the stop light at the WB on ramp. After the light changed and began driving, the vehicle console reported an exception with drive assist. At this time the driver attempted to slow down to take stock of the situation and the vehicle accelerated, at which time the driver took their foot off the brake pedal and attempted to identify a place to take the vehicle off the roadways. Thankfully a stoplight at McCoy Rd was green and the driver continued through that light and while attempting to brake, the vehicle accelerated instead. The driver then coasted, maneuvering the vehicle was into the Vista Palms commercial center. The vehicle, unresponsive to braking, propelled through a stop sign into the Kohl's parking lot at which time the driver began looping around the lot until the weight of the vehicle brought the motion down. While the vehicle was stopped, it rotated through warning messages indicating..forward collision, brake assist is reduced, steering assist is reduced, then finally Service Transmission Now Unable to Shift Soon. The vehicle was towed by AAA to AutoNation Chevrolet Airport in Orlando. Technicians found codes U1610 and U1639, and found K160 connecter unseated. It was reseated and greased. The concern is that this should have been locked and unable to be unseated. Is this an indication of manufacturing problem or operating problem? All braking was dysfunctional. How can we be certain that this was not a one off event?
Returning home on I-40 on Sunday, the engine just quit working. Fortunately it WAS Sunday and the traffic was light. Had there been more traffic, someone probably would have hit me from the rear. We managed to get it almost all of the way off the road before it stopped. According to the dealership that worked on it, it was the fuel supply service module, $46.09 part. The service technician said they had been having a lot of problems like this and knew what to do. All of the code were lost because to tow truck driving had to take the leads off of the battery. That was the only way he could get the car out of park in order to tow the vehicle.
The contact owns a 2025 Chevrolet Equinox. The contact stated that the vehicle was experiencing rough idling and sputtering at start-up. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to Auto Zone, where it was diagnosed with rough idling and fuel injector failure. The dealer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 8,000.
Vehicle was being parked in garage when it accelerated in reverse, on it's own, very quickly. Fortunately I was able to avoid colliding with any thing behind me by braking in time. I then shifted into drive when vehicle accelerated forward, on it's own again, very quickly. I was not able to brake before vehicle crashed into concrete garage wall, severely damaging front end. Vehicle is still under warranty, and I intend to have dealership haul it in for repairs. I have found other drivers complain on the Internet of experiencing the exact same issue as I described above. This model, Chevrolet, Equinox, 2025 is not safe to drive!
