This is the same issue why it's at the dealership department today. It happened again twice, this time the engine light comes on. Then it happened again, this time they said there is a programming issue update. The first time this happened, they told me the deisel engine has to go to a regeneration process. How can I continue driving when it is not safe as it won't run over 15mph. My equinox is at ron tonkin chevrolet service department for the same problem "engine power is reduced" "cleaning exshaust filter, continue driving". Now that I read this accident story,, I am very scared to drive my equinox. When I am on the fast lane, it is difficult to find an emergency quickly. Very dangerous and big safety issue because in most case this happened, I semi truck is behind me running at freeway speed limit, honking at me to get out of the way and I am nervously trying to find an emergency lane to stop. Every time this happens, I am on a freeway and all of a sudden the vehicle slows down and I cannot get it to run over 15mph. When this happens, the vehicle cannot run over 15mph. I have been to the service 5 times with a problem message "engine power is reduced". This is the second time this has happened and had the vehicle in for service a few weeks ago for same issue.ĭiscuss it at Forum View Details Complaint Number: 11390843 Incident Date: Date Added to File: JanuDescription of the Complaint: This 2019 equinox is 1.6l diesel engine. This situation almost caused me to be rear ended. After a few seconds I was able to start moving. The car did not respond to the gas pedal at first and just sat there. When the light turned green I took my foot off the brake and applied the gas pedal. This past my car stopped while in the mist of making a right turn.ĭiscuss it at Forum View Details Complaint Number: 11405692 Incident Date: MaDate Added to File: MaDescription of the Complaint: I was sitting at a stop light.

Inaccurate notifications can be generated during service." my car ended up being towed to the dealer for service where they confirmed and reproduced the problem. Please disregard this message if your vehicle is already in for service. Please service your vehicle within 7 days. After losing the ability to accelerate, I received an email from chevrolet within 10 minutes stating "an issue with the emissions system in your 2019 chevrolet equinox has been detected. There were no warning lights or anything that appeared prior to the incident. If I had made that judgment, attempted to turn, and not been able to accelerate and instead been left in the middle of oncoming traffic, I could have been hit and seriously injured or worse.
2019 EQUINOX DRIVER
As any driver knows, you estimate your ability to safely turn in front of oncoming traffic based on your car's accelerator working. Fortunately I was just leaving my neighborhood and on a residential street where the speed limit was only 35 mph anyways, but I shudder to think about what could have happened if I lost the ability to accelerate when I was on a highway or interstate, or even making a turn in front of oncoming traffic on a normal road. When I pressed on the accelerator nothing happened and I could only advance in the car at less than 5 mph.
