Hood open warning
I have a 2013 equinox LT everytime I am driving in a hard rain the hoop open warning comes on then it stops raining it does not come on anymore this has happen to me tiwce.
anyone else have the same problem? thanks |
Probably the switch that senses the hood. Water is getting in and causing a short. Take it to dealer, it is still under warranty.

Another owner with 2013 and same issue
I also own a 2013 Chevrolet Equinox with the same issue. I had the issue at least 3 times last winter when it was sleeting out. I brought the car to the dealer, but they told me they could not fix it because it was not having a problem when I finally made it to the dealer. I had the problem again yesterday when I started my car after it had rained the night before. After 5 minutes driving on the freeway, the alarm quit going off.
I contacted my dealer again, and chevy now has a bulletin on the issue and the dealer is ordering a replacement part. BTW, the auto start function is no longer working even though the hood alarm is not going off. |
