i have a 2010 chevy eq purchased brand new in 2010. had to replace throttle body at 44,000 miles (437.00), balanced chain replaced at 41,000 (NC), and now oil consumption test being performed at 60,000. who knew, never again.

We got the dreaded replace the throttle body news today on our 2010 Equinox at 111,000 miles.
Wife was driving to work, Stability light, engine light, low engine power light all came on, and vehicle would only go about 25 miles an hour, so off the interstate she exits and shuts it off, and when she restarts, only the engine light comes on and is able to drive at normal speeds again. She got home ok, and I took to local Chevy dealer, and get the $660 news.
It is a real nice vehicle when it is not in the shop.
So far the heater/central control with radio controls item went out, we were out of the recall vin range, but it still failed,.
Then the lower engine parts and balancer recall after the truck kept stopping in traffic all of a sudden, fuel was getting into where it shouldn't be, then a high pitched whine when reving the motor started on the way home from the dealer, so they did the entire recall over again, and of course that didn't fix it.
Then back to the dealer again for more testing and now the water pump seems to be an issue so new one installed,.
Then air conditioner condenser sprang a leak,.
Then O2 sensor,.
Now it is in for the throttle body replacement.
I know Chevy will not go broke if my next vehicle isn't from them, but this is a lot of issues, and Chevy Customer Service was of no help on this one.
