MY VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY. MY VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN THE CARPORT FOR A FEW WEEKS. WHEN I CAN BACK TO THE VEHICLE IT WAS COVERED IN MOLD. IT WAS ALL OVER THE DASHBOARD AND THE SEATS. I LOOKED ONLINE AND A LOT OF CONSUMERS WERE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. THERE IS A WATER LEAK. THE SPARE TIRE WELL HAS A LOT OF WATER IN IT. GM HAS A DOCUMENT ID NUMBER 2198426 DESCRIBING HOW TO FIX THIS WATER LEAK. I FEEL SINCE A LOT OF CONSUMERS ARE GOING THROUGH THIS; THEN IT SHOULD BE RECALLED.
NOTICED THE PAINT IS PEELING OFF THE BACK LIFT GATE. IT HAS CONTINUED TO PEEL SINCE. THERE IS NO RUST. TOOK IT TO A DEALER AND HE SAID HE THOUGHT THERE WAS A RECALL DUE TO THE PAINT NOT ADHERING CORRECTLY. IT'S THE ONLY AREA ON THE VEHICLE AND IT LOOKS TERRIBLE. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF THIS IS COVERED BY GM. THANK YOU

THE TRUNK WAS DRY SO I LIFTED IT UP TO CHECK BY THE SPARE TIRE AND FOUND A TON OF WATER. MY CAR HAS HAD A FUNKY SMELL FOR AWHILE NOW. I AM NOT SURE HOW LONG THE WATER HAS BEEN COLLECTING. BUT THIS IS A MAJOR HEALTH ISSUE. I HAVE TWO SMALL CHILDREN AND I HAVE NO IDEA HOW LONG WE HAVE BEEN BREATHING IN THIS MOLD AND MILDEW. GM PLEASE HELP WITH THIS ISSUE. I HAVE READ MANY OTHER CASES HERE ON THE INTERNET. THIS IS A MANUFACTURES DEFECT! *TR

EXTENSIVE WATER INTRUSION IN THE SPARE TIRE WELL. THIS HAS BEEN OCCURRING MORE OFTEN IN THE LAST YEAR. APPROXIMATELY 4-5 INCHES OF WATER IS FILLING FOLLOWING A RAIN STORM. *TR
ON 05/05/13 MY 7 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER NOTICED THAT THE BACKSEAT FLOORBOARDS WHERE WET. IT'S BEEN RAINING A LOT SO I SHRUGGED IT OFF WITHOUT CHECKING. ON 05/06/13 I NOTICED PUDDLING IN THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE FLOORBOARD. REMEMBERING WHAT MY 7 YEAR OLD HAD SAID I LOOKED BACK TO FIND STANDING WATER IN THE BACK SEAT FLOOR BOARDS!!! I RESEARCHED ONLINE AND CHECKED THE SPARE TIRE WELL AS RECOMMENDED. IT HAD STANDING WATER! I CALLED THE DEALERSHIPS SERVICE CENTER AND THEY ADVISED ME THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY $265 FOR A "WATER LEAK DIAGNOSTIC". THEN I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR WHATEVER THE ISSUE IS BECAUSE I AM NOT UNDER WARRANTY. I HAVE 2 CHILDREN AND AM WORRIED ABOUT MOLD. NOT SURE HOW I AM GOING TO FIX THIS WITHOUT BANKRUPTING. I SUCKED IT ALL OUT WITH A WET VAC AND WILL CONTINUE TO WORK ON THE CARPET EVERY DAY. SOMEONE HELP!! *TR
DURING THE WINTER I BEGAN TO HEAR WATER MOVING AROUND SOMEWHERE IN MY VEHICLE AS I DROVE AROUND BUT HAD NO IDEA WHERE THIS SOUND WAS COMING FROM. I WAS VACUUMING MY VEHICLE ONE DAY AND THE CARPET WAS COMPLETELY SOAKED. I BEGAN TO RESEARCH ONLINE AND FOUND THAT MANY EQUINOX OWNERS HAD LEAK PROBLEMS AND THEY HAD FOUND WATER HAD ACCUMULATED IN THE SPARE TIRE WELL. I CHECKED THE SPARE TIRE WELL AND SURE ENOUGH APPROXIMATELY 9 INCHES OF WATER HAD ACCUMULATED IN THERE. I CLEARED OUT THAT WATER BUT WATER IS STILL SOMEWHERE IN THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE BECAUSE I CAN HEAR IT AS I DRIVE, WATER ALSO LEAKS THROUGH THE OVERHEAD LIGHTING. I CONTACTED GM AND THEY ADVISED I BRING THE VEHICLE TO ONE OF THEIR REPAIR SHOPS FOR ASSESSMENT, THE SHOP STATED THE PROBLEM IS THE SUNROOF MODULE AT A COST $2600. AFTER THIS ASSESSMENT GM NOTIFIED ME THAT THEY ARE UNABLE TO OFFER REPAIR ASSISTANCE BECAUSE THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY, SOMETHING THEY KNEW PRIOR TO REQUESTING I BRING THE VEHICLE TO THE SHOP AND HAVING ME SPEND APPROXIMATELY $200. THIS IS CLEARLY A MANUFACTURING ISSUE WHICH MANY EQUINOX CUSTOMERS HAVE AND GM IS NOT ACCEPTING RESPONSIBILITY FOR. I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT THEY ARE ABLE TO GET AWAY WITH THIS. I AM NOW STUCK WITH A VEHICLE THAT HOLDS WATER IN THE BODY, A CARPET WHICH HAS GOTTEN WET AND WILL MORE THAN LIKELY CONTINUE TO GET WET SO IT HAS A CONSTANT ODOR AND A VEHICLE WHICH LEAKS THROUGH THE OVERHEAD LIGHTING, SEEMS VERY UNSAFE. THE WATER TRAPPED IN THE BODY OF THE VEHICLE WILL MORE THAN LIKELY CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO RUST AND PERHAPS EVEN CAUSE MORE SERIOUS PROBLEMS. THIS IS NOT FAIR TO THE CONSUMER, GM SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THE DEFECT IN THIS AND OTHER EQUINOX VEHICLES, TO ISSUE A RECALL FOR THE REPAIR OF THIS DEFECT IS THE LEAST GM CAN DO FOR THEIR CUSTOMERS. *TR
ON THIS DAY APRIL 8, 13 WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY ALL OF A SUDDEN THE SUNROOF OF MY 2007 EQUINOX LS FLEW OFF. *TR
THE CHEVY EQUINOX HAS A HISTORY OF WATER LEAKING INTO THE SPARE TIRE WHEELWELL. MY 2007 EQUINOX IS NO EXCEPTION. IT WAS REPAIRED IN 2009 UNDER WARRANTY. THE REPAIR LASTED FOR A WHILE THEN THE WHEELWELL STARTED FILLING UP WITH WATER AGAIN. LAST SUMMER I WAS USING A WET AND DRY VAC TO TAKE THE WATER OUT, ONLY TO HAVE IT FILL UP LATER ON. GM PUT OUT A MAINTENANCE BULLETIN IN 2009 FOR THIS PROBLEM. THEIR INSTRUCTIONS DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. THERE IS NO RECALL FOR THIS, WHY I DON NOT KNOW. THE WATER CREATES A TERRIBLE SMELL, FOGS UP THE WINDOWS ON THE INSIDE, CREATES ICE ON THE INSIDE OF THE WINDOWS DURING THE WINTER, CAN CREATE MOLD THROUGHOUT THE CARPETING AND SEATS AND IS JUST A COMPLETE PAIN IN THE ASS TO KEEP DEALING WITH THIS. WHY HAS THERE BEEN NO RECALL ON THIS ISSUE? MANY, MANY, MANY COMPLAINTS ARE OUT THERE ON THIS PROBLEM WITH NO COVERAGE FROM GM. THIS IS NOT AN OWNER CAUSE. IT IS A MANUFACTURING CAUSE. OWNERS OF THE EQUINOX NEED A RECALL INORDER TO TAKE CARE OF THIS WITHOUT PAYMENTS FROM THE CUSTOMER. CHECK IT OUT AND SEE HOW BIG THIS PROBLEM IS. THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH VARIOUS GM VEHICLES AND YEARS. *TR
THE CAR LEAKS WITH WATER WHEN RAIN DUE TO IMPROPER SEALING AROUND ROOF OF CAR ON DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE DOOR OF THE VEHICLE. VEHICLE FLOODS WITH WATER WHEN RAINING OR GOING THROUGH CAR WASH. WATER RUNS DOWN THROUGH MOLDEN OF DOORS ONTO FLOOR UNDERNEATH BRAKE PEDAL AND GAS PEDAL. *TR
HELLO, I NOTICED A HORRIBLE MILDEW SMELL ABOUT A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO WHEN I HAD CHANGED THE CABIN AIR FILTER. NEVER HAD AN ISSUE UNTIL THEN, I TOOK OUT THE CABIN FILTER THINKING THAT I HAD NOT PROPERLY SEALED THE HOUSING ONLY TO FIND THAT IT WAS SECURED PROPERLY AND IT SMELLS FINE. THIS IS VERY FRUSTRATING SINCE I AM VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT CARS. I HAVE READ TONS OF POSTS ABOUT WATER LEAKING INTO THE SPARE TIRE WELL AND I LOOKED THERE BUT FOUND NO WATER AND THE SMELL IS NOT COMING FROM THAT LOCATION. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY OTHER RECOMMENDATIONS OR OTHER KNOW HOW TO WHAT I CAN DO TO RID THE CAR. I JUST SPRAYED FABREEZE ON THE CARPET. *TR
MY EQUINOX IS FULL OF WATER WHERE THE SPARE TIRE IS AND IT THE WATER HAS LEAKED ALL INTO THE RUGS. I DID NOT KNOW HOW THIS WAS HAPPENING UNTIL THE PAST RAIN STORM. WHEN WE LOOKED AT THE SPARE TIRE COMPARTMENT IT WAS FULL OF WATER. MY CAR SMELLS LIKE MILDEW AND MY DAUGHTER HAS HAD A HORRIBLE COUGH FOR THE PAST FEW WEEKS. I FEAR SHE HAS MOLD IN HER LUNGS. WHEN I GO ONLINE THERE ARE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ON THIS SAME ISSUE. IT SEEMS THERE IS A FAULTY SEAL AND IT LEAKS ALL THROUGH THE CAR. IT TOOK YEARS TO GET THE RECALL FOR THE ELECTRICAL ISSUES IN MY CARE THAT BROKE DOWN AT LEAST 5 TIMES FROM FAULTY SPARK PLUGS. NOW CHEVY WANTS ME TO $370 FOR THEM JUST TO LOOK AT THE CAR. PLEASE LOOK INTO AS I CANNOT AFFORD THE COST OF THIS AND MY CAR MAKES SQUISHING NOISES AND SMELLS SO HORRIBLY THAT I PROBABLY CANT EVEN SELL IT. *TR

IN JULY OF 2010, I NOTICED THE SOUND OF LIQUID COMING FROM THE BACK THAT WASN'T NORMAL. I JUST ASSUMED AT THIS POINT THAT IT WAS MY GAS AND I JUST NEVER PAID ATTENTION TO IT...I HAD CONVINCED MYSELF OF THAT BECAUSE I KNEW WE DIDN'T HAVE DRINKS OR ANYTHING IN THE CAR. IN DECEMBER, MY HUSBAND ACCUSED ME OF HAVING A MILK CUP IN THE CAR FROM MY SON. NOTHING THERE, NO FOOD OR DRINKS, ETC. AS WE WERE LOOKING FOR WHATEVER WAS CAUSING THIS TERRIBLE SMELL THAT SMELLED LIKE A MILK CUP HAD SIT IN 100 DEGREE TEMPERATURE IN MY CAR, WE NOTICED THE CARPET WAS WET. THE SMELL WAS SO BAD THAT WE HAD TO ROLL THE WINDOWS DOWN AND IN JANUARY WHERE WE LIVE IT IS 10 TO 40 DEGREES, SO EITHER TEMPERATURE...NOT WARM ENOUGH FOR WINDOWS DOWN. I WAS THEN ACCUSED OF SPILLING THE MILK...CRAZY! I KNEW I HAD NOT! I GOT TO READING ONLINE AND FOUND OUT ABOUT THE LEAK IN THE SPARE TIRE WELL. MY HUSBAND FELT SO BAD BECAUSE I DID NOT DO IT! THE WATER WAS STANDING IN MY SPARE TIRE WELL AND LEAKING OUT INTO THE WHOLE BACK FLOORBOARD! SOAKING WET! THAT EXPLAINED WHY EVERY TIME WE RODE THE CAR WE GOT SICK...LITERALLY SICK. FROM UPSET STOMACHS, TO STUFFY NOSES, TO BURNING EYES AND NOSES, ETC...NO KIDDING! MILDEW OR MOLD...IT DOESN'T MATTER! NEITHER ARE GOOD. GM SAYS THEY WON'T PAY FOR OR EVEN LOOK AT FOR FREE. JUST TO HAVE DIAGNOSED IS $80.00 NOT INCLUDING THE REPAIR! THEY SAY I COULD HAVE LEFT THE LIFTGATE OPEN WHEN IT RAINED...OH COME ON!!!!!!!! JUST OWN UP TO IT AND FIX YOUR PROBLEMS! IF THAT WERE THE CASE I WOULDN'T HAVE LEFT IT THERE FOR 6-8 MONTHS!!!! I WOULD HAVE SUCKED IT UP WITH A SHOP VAC AT LEAST BEFORE IT FLOODED MY CAR AND MADE US ALL SICK! I AM VERY UPSET WITH GM REGARDING THIS ISSUE. MY CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND GM WILL NOT FIX THEIR ISSUES THAT "HOW MANY OTHERS ARE HAVING AGAIN"? THIS IS UNCALLED FOR AND VERY POOR BUSINESS FOR OUR AMERICAN'S EMPLOYMENT, PEOPLE WILL START BUYING FOREIGN MADE! NEED A RESOLUTION AND NOT OUT OF MY POCKET!!! *TR
MY 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX KEEPS TAKING ON WATER IN THE SPARE TIRE COMPARTMENT IN THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. WHEN DRIVING DOWN HILL, THE WATER WILL ENTER THE INSIDE OF VEHICLE THUS WETTING THE CARPET ON THE FLOOR OF THE VEHICLE. HOW THE WATER ENTERS THE VEHICLE CAN NOT BE DETERMINED. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN RESEALED AROUND THE REAR DOOR OF THE VEHICLE AND THIS HAS NOT SOLVED THE PROBLEM. THE WATER MUST BE ENTERING THE VEHICLE FROM THE UNDERCARRIAGE. I HAVE READ COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX OWNERS. BASED ON THEIR COMPLAINTS, THEY ARE NOT GETTING ANY RESOLUTION FROM GENERAL MOTORS. THIS MOISTURE IN VEHICLE CAN CAUSE MILDEW TO OCCUR IN THE VEHICLE. THIS CAN BE HAZARDOUS TO THE OCCUPANTS. *TR
LEAKAGE IN VEHICLE REAR SPARE TIRE WELL. TRANSFERRED ONTO REAR PASSENGER FLOOR/CARPET. ALL WINDOWS FOGGY FROM INSIDE AND MUST KEEP DEFOGGER ON AT ALL TIMES (EVEN IN HEAT) TO KEEP WINDOWS CLEAR FOR VISIBILITY. MOLD AND MILDEW FROM WATER CAUSING ILLNESS IN FAMILY. *TR
2007 CHEVY EQUINOX. WATER LEAKS INTO SPARE TIRE WELL. I NEVER HAD OCCASION TO LOOK IN THE SPARE TIRE WELL AS I HAVE NEVER HAD A FLAT TIRE SO I DON'T KNOW WHEN IT STARTED LEAKING. BUT AFTER CHECKING ON THE INTERNET I FIND THAT THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE FROM THE VERY FIRST TIME THAT GM STARTED PRODUCING THIS VEHICLE. *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET EQUINOX. HE CONTACT STATED THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED DURING A RAIN STORM AND THE REAR SEATS AND SPARE TIRE WELL WERE SOAKED WITH WATER.

MY FRONT DOOR HANDLES HAVE BOTH FALLEN OFF MY CAR. THEY JUST CAME OFF AFTER OPENING THE DOOR. THE PLASTIC IS VERY THIN WHERE THEY ARE CONNECTED AND SNAP OFF. I REPLACED MY PASSENGER SIDE ABOUT FIVE MONTHS AGO AND NOW I NEED TO REPLACE MY DRIVER SIDE. ITS REAL HARD TO GET IN AND OUT OF THE CAR WITH NO DOOR HANDLE. *TR
