Car feels like it is going to take off at a red light. Then it rumbles and cuts off at the light. I purchased car from US Auto Sales. DOWC paid PepBoys for multiple repairs for breaks rotors and the light that keeps coming on is service stabile track they got the light to cut off but the issue still persisted. They even changed all things dealing with the gas line. This car is still idling high at stop signs like it will take off on its own. And still cuts off at a red light. This is very unsafe and many drivers have almost run onto the back of me. I told US Auto Sales, DOWC, and PepBoys and they all put me back in the same vehicle after voicing my concerns about safety. Instead of putting me in a safer vehicle they ignored it. This has been happening since I purchased the vehicle in November 2022

SINCE I HAVE HAD THIS VEHICLE AND MADE CAR PAYMENT ONE, I THOUGHT THIS WAS THE BEST VEHICLE FOR ME. THEN SHORTLY THERE AFTER CAME THE RECALLS/PROBLEMS (Catalytic Converter, Electrical System inside the vehicle, and last but not least, the Engine. I have to make sure I take the vehicle in 1000-1500 miles early than normal because of the oil is low and the vehicle. The vehicle starts to vibrate/shake in the steering wheel and making noise that I know that it is time for the Oil Change. This vehicle has been not at all what I thought it was. I have spoken to someone at GM, which was supposed to get back to me. Please call for more information. [XXX]. Really would like to resolve this. If this vehicle is not safe for My 3-year-old granddaughter that I have in the vehicle or myself that I have put my TRUST and money in. I would love to give you my vehicle and you can drive your love ones and yourself to Doctor and other places you need to go.

"TAKATA RECALL" MY 2013 IS HAVING PROBLEM WITH EXHAUST SYSTEM FROM CONVERTER BACK WHICH THE SMELL IS BACKING UP INTO THE INSIDE CABIN OF VEHICLE. I HAVE NOTICED THAT THIS MUST BE A COMMON PROBLEM ON THESE VEHICLES (EQUINOX). I HAVE RELATIVES THAT ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THEIR 2010''S. I NOTICED THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THE VEHICLE STARTED SOUNDING LOUD WHEN PARKED AND WHEN TAKING OFF NO SPEED, COMPARED TO WHEN I FIRST PURCHASED. I TAKE VERY GOOD CARE OF MY VEHICLE....REGULAR OIL CHANGES AND NO MAJOR WORK NEEDED DONE SINCE MY PURCHASE.
