In owners' own words
9/15/2023, noticed a hesitation in the acceleration of the vehicle, when attempting to proceed after a full stop. Purchased the vehicle from CARMAX in Las Vegas, 8/25/2023. Recall Sheets were provided, however - I have been "unable to "REGISTER" the vehicle (in my name) to NHTSA website. When, "remedy" to the RECALLS are available, ???? How will "I" be "notified" to take the car to a Dealership ??? Fuel/propulsion system
I brought my daughter home from work car was working fine we went to leave about an hour later the car would turn over for a second then die my husband checked it and The P129F diagnostic trouble code is what popped up that is specific to GM Motors so that's what's wrong there were no warning signs and safety is necessarily at risk but I need a car to provide for my family Fuel/propulsion system
Driving down the interstate my 2022 chevrolet equinox LT lost all propulsion and shut off. I was able to get pulled over to the side of the road had to have my vehicle towed. Vehicle was repaired after a week at the dealership the problem was the fuel pump module again. This is the 2nd time the fuel pump modulehas went out in 2 years. Fuel/propulsion system
