Tl* the contact owns a 2008 chevrolet equinox. the contact stated that when the vehicle was started, the "stabilizer bar off track" and check engine warning lights illuminated on the instrument panel. the contact did not notify a dealer or the manufacturer of the failure. the failure mileage was 92,000.

When starting the vehicle i get 3 warning lights. 1: traction control off 2: service stabilitrack 3: service brake system. as i have read online this issues could have several different issues going on. i have also read that this is happening to alot of equinox owners, and have since found out this issue has happened on 2007 equinox models, as well as several other gm model vehicles. i am appalled that there is no recall posted for this issue!!!! i have also read that there could be vehicle fires, engine power reduction, engine power cut off, wheel hubs could break off!!! this needs to be recalled immediately as it is a major safety issue!!!!!!!!! *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2008 chevrolet equinox. on several occasions, both front wheel bearings failed to operate. while driving, a groaning sound was getting louder coming from the front end of the vehicle. the contact drove to cliff anschuetz chevrolet (located at 1074 us 23 n, alpena, mi 49707, (989) 884-0576) where it was diagnosed that the bearings failed and needed to be replaced. the vehicle was repaired. the contact stated that the failure occurred three times and the vehicle was repaired each time. the manufacturer was notified of the failure and provided case number: 9-5-297162112. the front passenger side wheel bearing failed at 67,697 miles and the front driver's side failed at 70,495 miles. *bf *tr

Was involved in a mva and driver was traveling 50-60mph when her car hit the front end driver side and air bag failed to deploy. since then air bag sensor turns on and off when there is a passenger in the seat . passenger weighing over 130 lbs. this is a big safety hazard and is scary to think that this car has yet to be recalled!! will the air bag go off next time something like that happens again??!! gm is wrong for recalling every other vehicle but this one!! power locks do not unlock or lock ever! i always have to manually lock and unlock each one. safety issue again! and last but not least, there is an electrical issue causing everything in the car to go out every month or two. recall this car before someone else gets injured. *tr
