| Tl*the contact owns a 2008 chevrolet equinox. the contact stated that the instrument control panel gauges were poorly illuminated. as a result, he is unable to properly read the warning indicators and other messages on the instrument cluster. sporadically, the cluster will have spontaneous surges of bright light. he took the vehicle to the dealer and they stated that these were normal characteristics of the vehicle. the failure has not been remedied. the failure mileage was 300 and current mileage was 9,000. | |||

| While driving on the interstate, speedometer stuck on 35 mph, gas gage said i had 1 1/4 tank of gas, and it said my car was overheating. when we came to a complete stop it stayed the same. after being parked for about 2 hours, everything went back to normal except for the gas gage. i took it to the dealer and they would not fix it because it wasn't doing it anymore. we bought this as our first all new car because we were tire of problems inherited with used cars. alot a good that did, we had it 3 months before problems started. *tr | |||

| I have been driving since 1963 and this car has absolutely the worst problem with static electricity that i have ever seen. i thought at first it was just me, but at a company meeting (it is a company car) i discovered that everyone i spoke to that has an equinox has the same problem. even if the car isn't running and you have already been shocked, if you move around slightly in the seat you will get another shock the next time you touch something metal. the shock is sometimes so severe that at first i thought the battery had a short to ground. *tr | |||
