Chevrolet Equinox Service Brakes Safety Report | Sept 13, 2011
Reported on Sept 13, 2011
| VEHICLE DEVELOPED A SHUTTER WHEN STOPPING AND ABS LIGHT WOULD COME ON. THIS CAUSED THE CAR TO TAKE LONGER TO STOP. TOOK THE CAR TO ASE CERTIFIED REPAIR SHOPS AND THEY REPLACED THE WHEEL HUB AND SPEED SENSOR. THIS DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. WHAT FINALLY FIXED IT WAS REPLACING THE JUMPER HARNESS #15773652. I SPENT OVER $700 ON THIS ISSUE, BECAUSE IT WAS A SAFETY PROBLEM. THE MECHANICS DID NOT EVEN KNOW TO LOOK FOR THIS PROBLEM, BECAUSE THERE WAS NOT A BULLETIN ISSUED BY GM ON THIS. THE HARNESS AND INSTALL IS ONLY A $68 FIX AND I HAVE HAD NO MORE PROBLEMS IN OVER A YEAR. I HAVE READ ENOUGH REPORTS ON THE INTERNET TO KNOW THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE 2005 EQUINOX. *TR | |
