2007 Chevrolet Equinox

I WAS DRIVING AND THE CAR STARTED SHAKING AND VIBRATING VERY BAD. I CALLED AND WAS TOLD IT COULD BE MY TIRES IF THEY WERE NOT ALL ABOUT THE SAME TREAD. I HAD REPLACED TWO TIRES A COUPLE MONTHS PRIOR SO I TOLD MY HUSBAND TO PULL MY REAR TIRES TO SEE IF IT HELPED. AS SOON AS HE PUT THE SPARE ON THE PASSENGER REAR SIDE THE VIBRATING STOPPED. SO WE TOOK THE CAR IN AND HAD 2 MORE TIRES PUT ON. THAT DID NOT STOP THE VIBRATION. I COULD ONLY DRIVE ON A SPARE HOME. SO I TOOK IT TO DEALERSHIP AND IT NEEDED A REAR DRIVE SHAFT!!! *TR

KEY STICKS IN IGNITION WHEN ENTERED INTO PARK, AND WILL NOT COME OUT MOST OF THE TIME. THE ONLY WAY TO RELEASE THE KEY IS TO STICK FINGER INTO A HOLE IN THE STEERING COLUMN AND SLIDE THE MANUAL RELEASE SWITCH WITHIN THE STEERING WHEEL COLUMN. THERE ARE NO OBSTRUCTIONS WHICH PREVENT THE GEAR SHIFT LEVER FROM ENTERING THE FULL PARK POSITION. *TR

I LOST POWER STEERING IN MY CAR. I HAD NO WARNING TO INDICATE THERE WAS A PROBLEM. I WAS DRIVING AND IT WENT OUT. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND I COULD HAVE CRASHED. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON THIS, MY POWER STEERING MODULE FAILED. I HAD TO REPLACE IT WHICH WAS VERY COSTLY. I HAVE READ THAT THERE HAS BEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON THIS YEAR AND MODEL WITH THE SAME ISSUE. *TR

I BEEN SMELLING GAS FOR OVER A WEEK OUTSIDE THEN INSIDE OF CAR. WAS TOLD I CAN DRIVE AND BRING TO DEALERSHIP ASAP AS LONG AS THERE IS NO LEAKS. I TOOK CAR TO THE DEALER IN JENKINTOWN,PA AND WAS TOLD THERE WAS A LEAK FROM FUEL PUMP LINE TO ENGINE. I NOTICE SEVERAL CUSTOMERS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM SINCE 2010 AND NOW IT'S 2012. WHY HAVEN'T THIS BEEN ON A RECALL DUE TO IT CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS WITH A GAS LEAK WHEN A CUSTOMER SMELLS GAS BUT DON'T SEE A LEAK. CUSTOMERS CAN THINK MAYBE GAS SPILLED A LITTLE ON CAR BUT WHEN YOU SMELL GAS WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING, THERE IS AN ISSUE. I KNOW CUSTOMERS LIKE MYSELF HAD PAID FOR THIS SERVICE WHICH SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL. I HAD TO PAY $949 FOR PART AND LABOR WHICH IS TOTALLY UNFAIR WHEN I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS ISSUE. I WILL REPORT TO CONSUMER REPORT REGARDING 2007 CHEVY EQUINOX WITH ALL THE ISSUES I HAD FROM GETTING A TRANSMISSION TO NOW GAS LEAK. VERY VERY DANGEROUS! *TR
