Equinox LT1 2.5L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 75,000 miles

I think this goes back to just before October 2015. Took the Equinox in first for the back camera, it was operating erratically. I pick the car up from the dealer. The next thing happened a few days latter. Remote starter wouldn't work. Car wouldn't remotely start. Took the car in to have it repaired under warranty. Also had some fluid changed. We get the car back. And a day or two the heating fan would drop to the lowest speed when the mode was changed.and wouldn't come back to speed for some time. Headed back to the dealer. Service advisory told about the problem and he said he would have it diagnosed and was had the transmission flushed. Service advisory calls and said a module is bad $500 to replace it. He has it replaced. I pick the car-up the next day. I drive away from the dealer.. About 110 minutes in to the drive I try the heating system and it doesn't work. I take it back and they replace a motor of some kind. I pick the Equinox up with the wife and head home. We notice finger prints a grease marks on the head liner and post. I call the services advisory about this problem. He said he would have it detailed. I get home and decide to open the hood. To my surprise thee computer that was on top of the battery is laying down by the transmission. I pick it up and find a screw to secure the unite. That night my wife receives a notice that something is wrong with her Equinox and we need to call onstar from the car. Onstar finds nothing. We take it back to the dealer for services.. We have a loner car now for the last 2 weeks. What can we do ?

Navigation will not reset and will not let you set clock. It has multiple issues. Very frustrating.
