Problems with 2015 Chevrolet Equinox ENGINE

On average, the 2015 Chevrolet Equinox starts to “feel” problems with the ENGINE and its various aspects after 67 184 miles.

Recently reported ENGINE problems on 2015 Chevrolet Equinox

Car is burning oil at abnormally fast rate. i have been driving with quart of oil in my car at all times since finding out about existing problem with earlier model year vehicles and noticing the pattern in my vehicle. check engine light and reduced engine power notification came on while driving on highway. the stability track notification came on as well. i am now being told by local mechanic that i may need a new engine. i was informed by local dealership that timing shaft and actuator may need to be replaced just to get the car to start. the underlying problem is the same as the existing problem in class action lawsuit for 2010-2013 models. chevrolet has built an engine that doesn't work and they need to pay for this. how many complaints does there need to be before something is done.

I have 2015 chevy equinox that is shutting off with intermittent engine light coming on . truck is driving rough feels as if it wants to stall while i'm driving.

Car is only 4 years old and has chevy service department certified bad timing belt. car has verifiable routine maintenance upkept. this is likely a manufacture's defect.

2015 equinox, 103k miles, pcv system froze and main seal blow out. oil leaked out very quickly while driving on the interstate, loss of power and a dangerous situation. bulletin 14882 does not cover my 2.4l ecotec engine, as it only covers 2010-14 model years. my vehicle has the same exact issue as the recall in the bulletin, yet i am stuck with a $6k bill. my vehicle also has the issue where it burns oil. the low engine oil pressure light did not come on until damage had already occurred. bulletin 14882 needs to be extended to include further model years. this was a very dangerous situation that has resulted in a significant financial loss. gm is more than aware of this issue.

Engine seized while driving at 50 mph causing loss of power steering and power brakes and leaving my wife stranded on the side of the road. seems that the pvc system plugged causing rear main seal to blow out and loose all the oil. gm has issued a bulletin "14882" that covers 2010-2014 model years. our chevy equinox is a 2015, so the same issue seems to follow later models.

The pcv froze and blew the rear main seal. the vehicle was warming up in my driveway.

No warning engine light came on and vehicle stalling (p011 and p016 codes) took to automotive repair shop new engine refurbished $5000 new $10,000 unfortunately no funds for either just over 100,000 miles and still owe $13,000 i understand these are the same issues that have been noted in first generation vehicle. i now have to look for a replacement vehicle while paying for one that does not work.

2015 chevrolet equinox intermittently sputtered and stalled at stop signs and stoplights. after stalling need to put car n 'park' before restarting. car stalled several times after initial stall. car also sputtered and almost died several times during freeway rush hour traffic when i took my foot off the gas. i had to put the car in 'neutral' and revved the engine to ensure the engine kept running. this could have been a serious issue should i been forced to stop in the middle of traffic. mechanic replaced the vvt intake and exhaust solenoids.

For a few days my car was running rough then while driving down the road about 45 mph it suddenly lost power and really began running rough. there were no warning lights, nothing. i pulled over and turned the car off and then turned it back on. it still was running rough. at this point the check engine light came on and a message popped saying the engine was running at reduced power. i drove 1/2 mile at ~ 15 mph to drop my daughter at school. at that point the car totally died. when it was taken to the shop it was found to have no oil. there was no indication that my car was out of oil or running low on oil and it probably had about 3500 miles since last oil change. my engine was ruined and now i have to purchase another motor! not happy as the car had about ~100k miles and that's low to me. and apparently there are issues with these engines so i am probably just paying to put another bad engine in!

The vehicle stalls upon going a slow rate of speed as when backing out of a driveway, driving in a parking lot, or stopping and trying to perform a turn on a city street. it can also stall on the interstate if you idle while slowed due to traffic stops. you have to turn the car off and restart the vehicle. it stalls about 3-4 times a trip. several times a day. the check engine light is on.

Consuming oil super fast

Tl* the contact owns a 2015 chevrolet equinox. while the contact's daughter was driving 60-65 mph, the vehicle lost power and stalled without warning. also, the engine power reduced message was displayed. the vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic who stated that the timing chain skipped a tooth and the engine needed to be replaced. the contact called parks motors (11987 us-54, augusta, ks 67010, (316) 775-6365), but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was contacted and provided case number: 9-5381264436. the manufacturer also stated that the warranty was expired. the failure mileage was approximately 118,000. *bf

Our 2015 chevrolet equinox with 62,900 miles stalled multiple times while in reverse backing out of our driveway. no engine light showing. while stopped at a traffic light on a major street and intersection, the car stalled a few times. you have to give it gas when shifting from park to drive to avoid stalling. after 1 day, the check engine light came on. it was time for an oil change so i had them check the code. it came back as bank one camshaft sensor p0011. the next day, all was fine and no check engine light. 2 days later, multiple stalls at stop lights and in parking lights when the car is going slow, starting from a stop and check engine light came back on.

Camshaft position actuator solenoid this happens as soon as we turn the car on, put it in drive and begin to accelerate. it also does it when we are idling at a stop light or stop sign the engine with start to jump as if it's not reacting to the accelerator. while we are traveling down the road you can feel the car jump as if it's trying to stall itself. we have to put the car back in park to start it so if this happens while we are traveling at a high rate of speed then that could cause a major accident or something more trajic. our car stalls when it's at idle or when we are beginning to accelerate. this poses a huge safety concern for our family as we are going to have an infant in a month. we have been doing research on this particular problem and it seems there are hundreds of others with the same issue as us. this needs to be recalled and resolved.

The vehicle started with a check engine light. vehicle has 46000 miles. when cold, engine stalls at random stops at a light, parking lot, drive thru. vehicle must be put into park and restarted causing a safety hazard and driving danger. code flashes p0011. dealer stated vehicle needs new sensor. $300 repair. this problem should be a recall, as a stalling problem is a saftety hazard and should be reimbursed by gm. can cause an accident in an intersection by blocking traffic at random.

On 4-14-29 my car stalled while driving multiple times. i had it taken in to a gm dealership on 4-15-19 and they stated that there was an engine oil consumption issue thru the piston rings that has caused extensive damage. there proposal was either a $3500 fix or a new engine for $7000. i called gm myself (compaint reference #[xxx]) and they stated that is a known problem and currently under investigation but that my vin number was not included on the recall list to have it fixed. they informed me to save reciepts upon payment for any repairs i had done incase later in the future there was a recall. i was advised to discuss my issue with the customer experiece manager at the dealership for some resolution. upon discussion with them they stated there is nothing they can do at this time as they can only fix "known" issue with permission from gm. the dealership also advised that it would be ridiculous for me to pay $7000 to have another engine added into my vehicle as this engine would more than likely have the same issues. they advised me to rent a car until i could decide what to do. the rental car was $55/day equaling to $1650 a month which is not feasible. i had to pick up my car today from the dealership as i need transportation to and from work as i work 45min away and there is not another option at this time. i was given a paper with details of work needed from dealership that i will save for future reference. on my way home my car stalled multiple times again. it does indeed turn over and restart once dead, but this poses a huge safety hazard to not only myself but other drivers on the street as well. hope there is some resolution to this as i have read multiple complaints online from other drivers with the same car, specifically the 2.4l ecotech engine, which is what i have. thank you for your time. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tt

Oil consumption issue. chevrolet's definition of oil consumption issue is using a quart (or more) within 2000 miles (or less) . other companies would define this as an issue but chevrolet does not see this as an issue. my car has shut off while in motion on a main road 7-9 times. it has also occurred in parking lots. i have to attempt multiple times for my car to stay on to get off of the roadway. it happens in forward and reverse.

While at idle, the car stalled. was able to restart the engine but as soon as i took my foot off the break and pressed the gas, the car would stall again. had it towed to the dealership and they diagnosed it as a misfunctioning intake camshaft solenoid. part was replaced. this same issue has been reported numerous times. this needs to be recalled before serious injury occurs. my kids were in the car with me when this happened.

Two weeks ago my car died while backing out of a parking space. i had the issue diagnosed at a mechanic, and the code came back as' p0010 - bank 1 intake camshaft position actuator electrical circuit had a fault.' took my car to the dealership and they replace it for free. on the dealership receipt it says 'replace camshaft position actuator solenoid valve.'

Purchased my equinox a year ago june 2019. the car was doing fine up until about the 2nd month mark i had it. the car began to have a very rough and jerky stop. i brought it to the dealer and they found nothing wrong. i got a oil change at least every month due to my job and having to drive frequently. in march i noticed my car was idling rough but drove ok. while leaving work i was stopped at a red light my car stalled and the engine completely turned off in the middle of traffic. i turned it off and restarted it. couple days later it did it twice as i was backing out into traffic. i took it to the dealership and my car was completely empty of oil even though i had just gotten an oil change. i now have to do oil consumption test every 2k miles. my car still shifts rough at acceleration and during downshifting. i had to have my camshaft solenoid sensor replaced as well. my car has 55k miles.

In mid-december 2018, we purchased a used one-owner 2015 chevy equinox from a small dealership in jenison michigan. it had about 113k miles. less than 3 months later, in early march of 2019, the vehicle suddenly started smelling of gas, rattling, stalling. i immediately drove the vehicle less a few miles to our local mechanic. after the mechanic examined the vehicle, it was determined that the engine had failed and needed to be replaced along with a fuel pump at a cost of about $6300. we had purchased a third party warranty from preferred warranties llc through the dealership, so we thought we would be covered. the warranty company requested a more thorough examination of the vehicle to determine why the engine failed, at a cost of about $200, which would be reimbursed to us if the claim would be approved. their adjuster visited our mechanic, and determined that since the engine had little oil, about one pint, the damage would not be eligible for reimbursement due to the vehicle being 'run on low oil.' we were floored, as the oil had just been changed in december at the dealership and was not due for a change for another 3k miles. we had put about 1k miles on it since purchase. there was never any indication while driving that there was any problem with oil consumption: no oil low warning light, no leakage under the vehicle, no smoke, no hesitation in driving. we discovered that chevy equinoxes with a 2.4l engine beginning in 2010-2017 were experiencing excessive oil consumption with many of the complainants stating there was no indication the vehicle was losing oil. we are asking for your assistance in any way possible to recoup our losses due to the negligence of gm in their lack of informing of potential issues.

I was driving down a hill in motion and i was attempting to make a right turn. my chevy equinox shut off as i made the turn. my truck stopped and my back end was in the lane i was attempting to leave. the front end was on the street i tried to turn on. so i immediately tried to start the equinox. i took four times for it to start. this has happens at least twice a week. i'm terrified to get on the local highway. also i'm terrified to get on the interstate for fear i will get into a wreck because if my vehicle shutting off. i've had the vehicle for one year. i'm stuck with it. it's totally unsafe. the dealership refuses to return my calls. i get regular oil changes. i need them more frequently due to the oil burning so quickly. i have to check my oil on a daily basis so i can make sure there is enough oil for me to drive to work. sometimes my vehicle shakes while i'm stopped at a red light or stop sign. i've then we'll take my vehicle to get it checked there will be oil in it. i don't understand why it shakes and cuts off and burns up oil. this is absolutely ridiculous i shouldn't have to deal with this. the vehicle is only three years old. *tr

Car started rattling, shaking, stalling with no indication beforehand of any problems. it was discovered that there was excessive oil consumption, resulting in using all but one pint of oil since oil change 2 1/2 months prior, less than 2000 miles since oil change. engine damaged and fuel pump needs to be replaced. no indications that oil was getting low, no lights, no smoke, no smell, no leaks, no hesitation. while parking car, this all occurred.

I have not had this car a year yet and it stalled on me twice while i was backing out of the parking lot. luckily there was no ca parked in front of me so i had to pull out straight to drive. i drove for maybe another 20 minutes and the car stalled on me twice while i was sitting at a red light. the car started back up and then stalled on my while i was driving on the city street. i have a full tank of gas, 46% oil in the vehicle and coolant in the vehicle. i get my oil changed every 3000 miles

My car is a 2015 chevy equinox that i have driven since i picked it up from the dealer with six miles on it. on or about february 8. i started the car in the morning, after running for a few seconds it sounded like the oil was too low. i shut the car off checked the oil, found it low, i put two quarts in and started it again. i checked it again saw it was low, i looked underneath and saw oil on the ground. i towed the car to my regular mechanic, he said it was a rear main seal. during the repair he told me he was researching the car and learned that this is a common problem with this car, and while he is replacing the seal he wanted to clean the pcv system as well. i asked him to do what is necessary to repair the car. after paying over $1000.00 my mechanic told me that i may want to call gm or nhtsa and try to get reimbursed because this is the same system that was recalled, just a year off. my wife called gm, the person she spoke with agreed that there may be an issue and asked for all documentation, my wife was shocked when the 1st representative told her that they knew about the problem. then told her that a senior representative will call her back the next. today that senior representative called her back. i was home when this happened. after she explained what happened and what was done to the car the fist response she got was "since we didn't take the car to a gm dealership there was nothing they could do" she then put me on the phone and i asked him that if the gm dealer fixed it would it be taken care of.? he then changed his tune telling me that it has not been established that a recall exists. however, he did say that noting can be done just because i read something on the internet. i replied that yes i was doing research, yes, i did find others are having the same problem as the recall.if others are having the same problem. why not another recall?

Tl* the contact owns a 2015 chevrolet equinox. while the vehicle was undergoing an oil change by an independent mechanic, the contact was informed that the vehicle had no oil. the mechanic mentioned an unknown tsb issued by the manufacturer for the same failure. the contact received oil changes from rk chevrolet (502 n delsea dr, vineland, nj 08360, (856) 469-4061) for the past four years. the dealer stated that they were aware of the tsb, but the vehicle was not eligible for the extended warranty offered by the tsb. the contact stated that the vehicle was currently operating at half power, and there were pinging and rattling sounds. the vehicle was burning an excessive amount of oil between oil changes. the contact took the vehicle to the same dealer on february 6, 2019 and the failure was supposed to have been repaired. the manufacturer stated that there was no recall for the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the failure mileage was 90,000. the vin was unknown.

I own a 2015 chevy equinox that pcv system failed and cause major engine damage. the day issue happened is one of the coldest days in record in the state of missouri. the pcv system froze causing excessive pressure in the engine cause the rear main seal to blow. once this happen the car start to loose excessive amounts of oil which lead to the engine damage. there is not a oil pressure gauge in the car so there was no way of telling if there was no oil pressure, only a oil light in which it did not come on. how i found out i had the issue is when the engine started hammering. i shut off the engine quickly and had it rolled back to gm. where i was told that my engine is no good and i need a new one, which cost 7700 to fix. my car had the same issue as describe on the gm 14882 bulletin but still no help with the cost. after speaking with the service manager he tried to get good will warranty since im over my 100,000 mile warranty.but still no help, i have to pay for the engine my self because i still have the loan through gmac. the worst thing about the issue is that the service manager told me that this is a known issue and only certain cars are covered on the bulletin and that the bulletin only ties to the vin on the car. well reading up this is a huge issue and so far there are more complains then recall fixes. someone needs to do something about it.

Car shuts off while driving. engine light came on and when slowing down or the car has stopped in traffic on the freeway or at a red light the engine shuts off. took the car to the shop and unable to determine the issue. will return it to the shop again for a more thorough inspection. this happened multiple times while driving to work.

Have had the car less than a year. had it in the service shop 4-6 times for noisy breaks and squeal in the front coming from engine. every time you put on the breaks it makes an awful noise. when you turn the car completely off it squeals from the engine. the service manager stated 'it's supposed to sound like that'

Car has 57,323 p0013 was replaced less than one week ago and now it's popping back up with a p0014.

Car stalls while driving, while stopped in traffic car will stall when brake is released and will also stall while pushing the accelerator. stalls while in drive and reverse.

Engine stalled several times while driving and just shut off while driving and the check engine light came on. took the vehicle to have codes checked it showed camshaft position sensor, so had that replaced and the vehicle continued to shut off while driving after that was replaced and the check engine light appeared on again. took the vehicle to chevrolet dealership to be told that the camshaft position actuator needed to be replaced which cost me about $350.00. this seems to be a common problem with the chevy equinox's and they need to be recalled for it because it is very dangerous to be driving and your vehicle just stops while driving down the highway.

The check engine light, is on i have 50,000 miles it shut off when u come to stop or idle.. pulled code came back as p0010,& p0011, camshaft position actuator . this car has been excellent cared for. unexceptionable.. car was in motion, on the streets, highway s. cars blowing for me to pull off. have to drive with flasher to keep cars back to keep from getting rear ended.

With out warning my wifes car went into engine power failure mode. the car would not go more then 10 mph. i had the car towed to a chevy dealership. they informed me that the vehicle was four quarts low of its motor oil. they then asked me for all the service records i had to establish a history. they had the oil changes that i did from the dealer, one from a well know auto merchandiser and because i did the most recent one myself, the dealer is telling me that they will not accept that one because there is no documentation of me doing it and hence the vehicles power train warranty will not be honored. the car is only three years old and has 75000 miles on it. no indication of any issues were present at anytime with this vehicle.

I was driving from baltimore to leesburg va for my college classes. while driving in rush hour traffic on interstate 495 near washington dc is when my car suddenly stalled in the middle of traffic. it continued to stall several times and anytime the vehicle was going under 20 mph. this continued until i reached my destination 1-1/2 hours later. although not in rush hour traffic this continued on my 2 hour return trip later that evening. in these two incidents there were no warning lights illuminated. the next day, every time i stopped the car it would surge as if i was pushing the gas pedal. then the check engine came on for the first time. the engine rattling and whining continuously. the vehicle also seems like it has trouble shifting from 2nd to 3rd gear and when it did, the car shifted very hard and abrupt not knowing what the issue was i went to a mechanic and he told me the variable timing solenoids were failing. he also told me there was no oil in the engine. come to find out these solenoids called "vvt" need oil pressure to operate not one time did my oil light come on to indicate an low oil level. the car only shows oil life percentage, which tells me when to change the oil. upon doing some research there is a known oil consumption problem with the 2.4l ecotech engine and general motors is aware and has had a class action case against them.i have a 2015 equinox and have had jump through hoops to get gm to take ownership of this.they are telling me it is my problem, because i don't maintain my oil change intervals, which is not true. i do as the warning lights tell me. i do feel this poses a serious threat to my safety and others who have this vehicle or the 2.4l ecotech engine. i think this vehicle is unsafe for driving on highways or even where there are lots pedestrians.

Takata recall i was involved in a car wreck on a city street. my car was totaled and not even one airbag deployed. it was a front end collision. i was traveling east about 20-25 miles per hour and s vehicle ran a stop sign going excessively fast. i hit the passenger side of her vehicle. my vehicle spun around 90 degrees and ended up in a ditch hitting a stop sign on drivers side door. front of my equinox was totaled.

On 9/11/18 i was driving thru an intersection and and van pulled in front of me casuing me to brake and my car shut off. steering wheel locked so i couldn't pull off the road. it took 2 tries to re-start my car and when i put it in drive and pressed on the gas it started sputtering. this is not the first time the car has shut off as i was driving. previously when i took it to the dealer that said that no codes showed up so there was nothing they could do.

Recall i would start my car after driving it my car will shut off on its own will do this sevrall time thur out the day . been taking it to get it check they say it might be the oil change but had a oil change and alway put the expensive one on.

Engine stalled in heavy traffic. restarted after turning ignition off and on. car kept hesitating every time from brake to gas when trying to move forward from stopped. check engine light came on with code p0010. dealer kept it for 4 days and couldn't find the problem, no charge. 10 days late the issue returned. car stalled 4 times in a few miles of stop and go traffic. seems to only happen after car sits idling in traffic. move foot from brake to gas and engine dies. taking to the dealer again next business day. after google searches it appears that the 'camshaft position actuator solenoid valve needs to be replaced. i hope the dealer has google search

About 4-6 months ago, my car started to jolt every now and again, while driving it, but it never shut off. last week, when i was backing out of a parking spot, the car died when i shifted it into drive to leave. it took a while to turn back on, but did start up again. on my way home, it shut off again while in motion. once i got home, the check engine light popped on and i did not drive it again until the next day. i went to wash it, as i do weekly, and fill up the gas tank. the check engine light turned off. the next morning, i was driving to work and the car cut off again while in motion. once i was able to get it restarted, i drove it to the closest mechanic immediately. they attempted to look at the car and diagnose it for the greater part of the day. the machine was reading a cam shaft issue; however, when they inspected it, there was no issue with it. the mechanic stated that he has seen this issue with the chevy equinox several times and that changing the intake/outtake valves gives a temporary resolve; however, the problem typically comes down to the engine/motor having to be replaced, which is approximately a $6000 repair bill, or take a complete loss on the car., because metal shards and other things get trapped in the engine/motor that can't be removed. they did replace the valves, which cost me $400+, told me to keep doing what i do, in terms of keeping maintenance up, and hope that something is done before the engine/motor needs replacing. i am responsible for my transportation and that of my two children (ages 1 & 11). i cannot have my car stop, in the middle of me driving it, and have that result in a fatal loss of me and/or my children. a simple internet search shows that multiple years of this make/model car have the same issue and it is alarming that no recall is in place. the consumer is being left to cover the cost of safety in faulty vehicles.

I parked my car on monday night and heard a rattling noise and the engine sounded like it was knocking. i turned it on and off and it started again. the next day i get in to take my two young children to school and the car wouldn't start. i called the dealer and had the car towed and the dealer tells me that i need a new engine. the vehicle has 58,352 miles so it as far i know it should be covered under the power train warranty as i have less that 100,000 miles and its only 3 yrs old since i bought it brand new. well gm will not cover the motor because i didn't take it to the dealer to have oil changes done. since they have no record of the oil changes despite that fact that i did them every 3000 miles as recommended they will not give me a new motor yet i still have to pay $510 a month for a car that i can no longer drive. gray chevrolet is the dealer the car is at and they are the worst. gm doesn't honor their warranties and should be put out of business. i will never ever buy a gm vehicle ever again. why was there no lights on the dashboard prior? how do i need a motor over night when i had no problems previously? why is that gm will not honor their warranty or at least send someone to the dealer to investigate? why won't gm at least call gray chevrolet to find out what happened as opposed to reading something to me from a computer screen? why would they not try to assist their customers? im stranded with 2 kids and no one care. don't ever by any vehicle from gm!!!!!!!!

On two (2) separate occasions my vehicle has stopped dead in the roadway while driving. i lost all power steering, lights, radio etc. i was able to restart the vehicle both times. this could be deadly if i am on a busy road or freeway. i am terrified for my safety, but also for my two year old grandson, family, friends and anyone else who could be involved in an accident if this happens again. my vehicle was leased january 19, 2015. i am way under on my miles (2600) and has been well maintained by me with zero damage anywhere. my vehicle was in the dealership from june 29, 2015 the first time the engine stopped while driving. they kept the vehicle fro 3 days. at that time i was advised by the service department that mine was the third vehicle in the last week with the same complaint. i took it back to the dealership on july 6th after the second time it stopped dead in the roadway. i was called on august 12, 2015 that the vehicle was ready for pick up and that they were unable to duplicate the problem. the dealership has been unable to find the problem. the service dept. states they have driven the vehicle for a mere 58 miles over the last several weeks. the service manager suggests i buy out my lease and just sell it to someone else. of course this is not an option for me.
