Purchased 2010 Equinox ls on 8/14/09. The vehicle has incurred numerous visits to the dealership to correct a major water leakage problem, defective module which controlled dashboard functions including heat and defrost and a severe oil consumption condition which remains unresolved. Complaints of engine knocking were reported to 2 dealerships with no resolve. Approximately 6 weeks ago the vehicle experienced the same knocking and check engine light. The dealer replaced the timing chain, thermostat along with various seals and valves. This past Monday the vehicle experienced the same tapping noise and shuttering, after was determined the vehicle had no oil the vehicle was towed to the dealer were they discovered the car had consumed over six quarts of oil with no visible signs of oil leakage anywhere. The were advised by GM to do an oil consumption test over 5000 miles with a bi-weekly inspection by the dealer. A research of internet forums revealed this situation to be a common complaint with various concessions made to other owners. This is a dangerous defect that can leave a driver stranded in the heat of summer or dead of winter with life threatening possibilites. This matter deserves you immediate attention.
