Blind Spot Indicator Issues - Poor GM Support

2020 Chevrolet Equinox Premier 4dr SUV AWD (1.5L 4cyl Turbo 6A)

My 2020 Equinox Premier started to have problems with the blind spot indicator when the regular OEM tires were replaced with snows in November. Multiple trips to the GM dealer and involvement of the GM "Ambassador" did not resolve the problem. The indicator became undependable flashing on and off for no apparent reason. As there were no diagnostic codes GM headoffice refused to allow my dealer to continue to perform warranty repairs. I researched this issue and was convinced it was the wheels or the snows. The Bolt had similar issues and a warranty fix The tires and wheels were recommended by GM Dealer. Well in March I put the original tires on and guess what? No problems. I have been dealing with Syed Qureshi at GM Headoffice but have been unable to get through and he does not return my calls. All I want is for this problem to be recorderd so next fall I can pursue it further. Common GM you cannot sell a car that does not work for winter snows. I am a 30 year GM customer and am reassessing whether I will ever buy a GM car again, Amd as far as I am concerned whole Ambassador program is useless as far as I am concerned. Wonder if anyone from GM will contact me. I doubt it

I purchased my CoCo in May of 2020, got a great deal, discounts and no money down. I'm happy with the purchase price. This is my 2nd SUV I used to have a Nissan Xterra years ago, so I know what to expect and what I wanted. I got the MIdnight Edition...it's all black everything. It looks really sharp, nice and I enjoy how it rides. It's roomy and comfortable for me, I'm 5'10 and it not a cramped ride. I always check out the backseat before purchasing, there was plenty of leg room. The only thing I don't like is the radio, it doesn't have steering wheel options. You have to change stations from the actual radio dash. I was putting the cheapest gas in it, but I was running out too fast, so I upgraded to mid and it lasts much longer. I also put in high grad every 6-8 weeks just because I feel like it helps it run better. Overall I'm very pleased with my Equinox.

BEWARE. MY 2020 AWD LT equinox is in the service center at the moment for fluid leaking out of the transmission. It has 500 miles on it and I have had it for 3 months!!!!! I wanted a reliable safe car. Very disappointed and frustrated.. I would give 0 stars..

Bought my 2020 equinox less than two months ago. When I turn now, I hear a crunch/pop noise. Most likely CV Joints, and that shouldn’t be an issue with a vehicle this new. Not happy being that my Altima is 4 years old and has never had an issue. Waste of money. The gas mileage has been terrible as well. Now I’m stuck with a vehicle I’m completely unhappy with. Update:Still hate it. Update: motor blew at 60,000 miles randomly. Will never buy another.
