Description of the problem | I have a 2019 equinox that i bought with only 29 miles when purchased 5/22/19. Within the second week of driving the vehicle on the freeway i heard a popping noise and i then the a message came a cross the screen saying lising power from the engine! I was so scared on the freeway ! I have a new car, what could be the problem! The car reduced speed! I took it to george matick chevrolet . My car was in the shop for 2 days and they discovered it was the air tube had came off! My car was returned back to me after service. 2 weeks later while driving to indianapolis the tube popped 9ff again! I called on star they navigated me to the nearest dealership. The dealer connected the tube back and told me it was okay to drive , and showed me how to reconnect the tube if it came off again! This was so scary to be on the highway with a new car and things like this is happening! I no longer wants this vehicle! I get back to michigan takes it to the dealership now they have to order the part it will take a couple of days to get the part in. Ok the car is fixed again! 3 weeks later the same problem after a new tube was placed on the car 6/ 26 /19, the car is back at the dealership same problem plus now they have to change the throttle! I feel like i bought a nightmare!😡😭 |
