My 2020 Equinox has developed a shake/shimmy vibration when accelerating between 30 and 45 mph. When I first noticed the vibration it was slight and did not happen all the time but with more milage now at 5309 miles, it has become more noticeable enough, that my wife and I do not feel as if the car is safe to drive. Two days ago while accelerating up a hill the car shimmied and a fluttering sound was heard from under the console; it happened twice while going up the hill. Upon returning home I went to the dealership at riverview Chevrolet and had a technician ride with me. While riding, the tech. Said he felt the vibration but could not tell me what was causing the problem or how to alleviate the problem. Upon returning to the garage I talked to the service write up person and he said to, "call all him in 10 days!!!!!."

While traveling down the interstate around 75mph, the vehicle began to shake almost uncontrollably. While I was able to regain control and continue on after slowing down, it was a very frightening occurrence. It seems to be a prevalent problem with GM cars as an internet search revealed lots of complaints for this "Chevy shake."

Starting October 26, 2020 I've been experiencing my car radio shutting off and turning back on. When the radio randomly turns off, it disconnects my bluetooth and music stops playing. Today alone I have had this issue happen to me 7 times in a matter of 35 minutes. I have no idea what is causing this issue, but I would like a resolution considering that I"M the first owner of this vehicle and it's still brand new.

When accelerating the car begins to shake and shimmy noticeably beginning around 35 or 40 mph. This shaking is felt in the seat as well as the steering wheel. The vibration continues until the acceleration is halted. This shaking feels like it is coming from the transmission or drive shaft. It seems to be getting worse too. Currently 3650 miles on the car. Serpentini Chevy in westlake, oh is also aware of the problem and showed me a letter that GM sent to the dealers acknowledging the issue on 9/9/20 but no fix is available. It feels unsafe

Car has a problem with mold in the condenser and a odor that can't be corrected. Problem is when the air conditioner is running., and becomes a problem to my breathing. After looking on line it seams to be called dirty sock syndrome. This was also smelled in the rental Equinox that was provided. This is a health risk to people with breathing problems as I have.

In -13 degree farenheit, the vehicle locked me out. Key fob left inside vehicle for 45 min, engine off, parked in a parking lot. Remote start from inside building did not work due to fob in car. Once I arrived back a the vehicle I found the doors locked, door handle unlock button unresponsive with multiple attempts. Vehicle failed to unlock while I stood outside in -13 degree weather, completely unsafe, for 5 min. I tried all doors and tried unlocking from passenger side. There was no unlocking sound when pressing the door buttons. I tried the Chevy app to unlock standing right next to the vehicle, it did not unlock immediately. After a minute or longer delay the locking mechanism started to engage or disengage randomly without me pressing buttons on the door or app. Each time I tried to open the door without success. On the last click I was able to suddenly open the door. 2530 odometer reading.
