2013 Chevrolet Equinox Electrical System Problems

My car is chewing through oil, about 1 quart every 500 miles. There are no leaks, I change oil regularly. It went into limp mode, to then discover the 2.4 4 cylinder Chevys and GMCs are having massive issues. It almost stranded me on the side of the road coming home from work.

Using to much oil engine making noise

Engine failure after complete service inspection.

Got a diagnostic done and the engine is needing a timing jump and lower bearing that causing noise.

Recall for oil burning consumption I took car to dealership to fix but I’m continuing to have the same problems and still no oil light comes on and it continues to use oil some where and it never leaks onto the ground and new problems now it’s jerking when at a stop if idle for to long a warning light says reduced engine power. Very unsafe in traffic

My car is burning oil I only drive to work which is only 20 miles away I put oil in 2 days ago and it’s rattling and sounds like it’s knocking and is a quart low it says it’s at 54% till my next oil change also my oil cap has condensation under it. How can this be fixed? Also yesterday when I was leaving for work my radio totally went off blank screen for almost a minute, I live in the country and I don’t want to be stranded on the side of the road at 5:00 in the morning I love my car but, how can these 2 issues be fix? Is there anything you can do to fix this?

See attached document from complainant

My car caught fire 1 minute after it started smoking while I was driving it due to an electrical issue. I nearly died. The fire totaled my car.

MY 2013 EQUINOX IS USING A MASSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL I HAVE THE OIL CHANGED EVERY 2000 MILES AND STILL HAVE TO KEEP AN EYE ON IT NO OIL LIGHT COMES ON TO WARN ME MY CAR ALSO DIED ON ME RIGHT AFTER STARTING IT AND WHEN I PULLED THE DIP STICK SO MUCH AIR PRESSURE BLEW OUT AND BLEW OIL ON ME I HAVE ALREADY REPLACED THE THROTTLE BODY AND PEDAL POSTINGS SENSOR AS WELL AS MY BACK UP CAMARA WENT COMPLETELY YELLOW WITH A BLUE LINE GOING ACROSS IT MY DATE IS NEVER RIGHT AND I STILL OWE 6000 ON IT I'VE HAD MY CAR 2 YEARS AND 6 MONTHS

CAR HAD AN OIL CHANGE AND THREE DAYS LATER, IT BURST INTO FLAMES. IT WAS A 2013 CHEVY EQUINOX WITH A ECOTEC ENGINE. THE CARE WAS SITTING IN A PARKING LOT.

MY CAR ENGINE LIGHT HAS CAME ON WHILE DRIVING. I TAKE CARE OF MY CAR AND WITH COVID HAVEN'T BEEN DRIVING MANY PLACES. WHEN INSPECTED BY A LICENSED MECHANIC THEY TOLD ME IT IS SOMETHING WITH THE ELECTRIC COMPUTER COMPONENT OF MY CAR AND MY CAR RUNS CORRECTLY AS OF NOW. *TR

DIGITAL SPEED WON'T LIGHT UP. NO LIGHT DRIVING OR STILL M

WHILE DRIVING ENGINE COMPLETELY SHUTOFF WITH NO WARNING ON A BUSY HIGHWAY BLOCKING TRAFFIC LIGHTS DID NOT DIM OR ANYTHING. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS ENGINE . TIMING. WAS THE ISSUE DUE TO BURNING SO MUCH OIL.

I PURCHED A 2013 CHEVY EQUINOX BRAND NEW. TWO YEARS AFTER HAVING IT THE CENTER CONSOLE FOR MY RADIO AND HEAT/AIR CONTROL WOULD NOT WORK. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY FIXED IT. I WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS A MODULE SWITCH. THEN IN APRIL 2017 IT DID IT AGAIN! TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE AIR HVAC. THEN AUGUST 2018 IT HAPPENED AGAIN. THIS TIME I AM TOLD IT IS THE RADIO HVAC AND THAT NOW IT IS NOT COVERED ON WARRANTY AND THAT I HAVE TO PAY $650 TO HAVE IT FIXED. I BELIEVE THIS HAS BEEN A MAJOR PROBLEM FROM THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED AND JUST KEEP GETTING TOLD SOMETHING DIFFERENT EVERYTIME. THE SAME THING HAPPENS BUT HAVE BEEN TOLD A DIFFERENT PROBLEM BY THE CHEVY DEALER WITH THE EXPENSE GOING UP EACH TIME.

THIS IS A COMPLAINT THATS COMMON IN EQUINOX 2.4L THE OIL COMSUMPTION AND ITS STALLING WHEN IDLING
