Complaint Timeline
Chronological view of owner reports
My 2024 Equinox was returned to the dealership on approximately October 1, 2025, due to a check engine light related to the torque converter. I required a rental vehicle during this time. I picked up my vehicle on October 10, 2025, and all repairs were covered under my extended warranty. I was informed that my rental reimbursement would be issued once I submitted the required paperwork. My safety and the safety of my grandchildren were put at risk loss of power and control-stalling, in ability to accelerate in traffic, gear slippage and over heating Given the known history of torque converter issues in the Equinox—dating back as early as 2005—it is disheartening that GM continues to sell vehicles at premium prices while failing to properly support the customers who purchase them.
Traveling on the highway with a speed limit of 70 mph. Vehicle would not accelerate above 35 mph resulting in the potential to be rear ended and cause an accident. After three attempts by the GM dealership to repair the vehicle this condition still exists. I have decided due to safety concerns to not operate this vehicle.
The transmission would not engage in any gear while I was in the path of oncoming traffic
