Vehicle Safety Complaint — 2023 Chevrolet Equinox LT I am reporting a potentially dangerous safety defect involving my 2023 Chevrolet Equinox LT equipped with the 1.5-liter turbocharged engine. While operating my vehicle on a public roadway, it suddenly lost power and stopped functioning without advance warning, creating a dangerous situation for myself and other motorists. The vehicle had to be towed to an authorized Chevrolet dealership. I received no prior recall notification, and my VIN did not indicate an applicable recall. The dealership informed me that the fuel pump recall applied only to 2.5-liter engines. I am concerned because General Motors has published fuel pump control m

I got it towed to the same shop (dealership) for the same problem and now they're trying to charge me for a repair that wasn't fixed in the first place.

The high-pressure fuel pump on my 2023 Chevrolet Equinox has suffered a structural mechanical failure, creating a severe risk of sudden engine stall while driving. Exactly 60 days ago, a certified GM dealership performed Customer Satisfaction Program N252524760 on this vehicle to address fuel system faults. The software calibration mandated by the campaign failed to resolve the underlying physical defect. The exact same fuel system trouble codes have returned, and the vehicle is now unsafe to transport my children. The manufacturer's remedy was incomplete, and the dealership is refusing to replace the defective mechanical pump without an out-of-pocket charge, despite the failure stemming dir
