Luckily I had my seat belt on which something in the seat belt blew when it locked me in place due to the impact of the deer hitting jumping out at me a warning popped up on my dash believe said "locked" but all happened so fast, it pushed & cracked just about everything under my hood. "tamara recall" I'm writing reguarding an accident that totaled out my vehicle but none of my air bags deployed " I hit a deer at 75-80 mph on a hwy it hit my drivers side headlight and continued up over my hood and actually dented part of my passenger side fender I couldn't even open the door all the way! none of my air bags went off. It happens while idling, driving slowly and even on the highway! it's so dangerous and many people complain about the same issues with the same car if researched online. My car loses the engine but all battery functions work. I just almost have it paid off and can't afford for them to keep screwing me around, nor can I afford a new car. I have gotten the run around since I bought my car brand new off the lot. I can't drive all the way back to the dealership that replaced it when I am the one paying for the diagnostic exam anyway.so I keep getting conflicting responses from Chevy and their dealerships. I can't even drive my car because we've almost been rear ended multiple times and I have very small children. and when I called the dealership, they told me that they couldn't service my vehicle because I didn't have the warranty work done at that location. mind you I have been dealing with the same issue since I bought my car. I contacted customer care at Chevrolet and they told me to take it to the closest dealer to get a diagnostic test run at my expense because my warranty is out. The dealership I purchased it from told me around 40000 miles that sometimes 'you just get a bad apple.' They replaced my motor under warranty about 20,000 miles ago with a brand new motor and now my car is doing the exact same thing. I have taken my car to Chevrolet multiple times because it cuts out when idling and sometimes driving. There have been no recalls related to these issues. This is a major safety issue as I did not receive any warning lights of being low in oil and no engine pressure warning lights. however, my VIN number was not included in this special coverage adjustment even though I was within the mileage and year. GM stated on my receipt the cause of my problem was, "moisture froze in the PCV system causing the crankcase to overpressurize". If the oil leak is not noticed and condition is not corrected, continued driving can cause damage to the engine. This causes increase crankcase pressure leading to a rear crankshaft seal oil leak. This special adjustment are for those Equinox's that experience high oil consumption and may experience a frozen or plugged positive crankcase ventilation system. My mechanic advised towing to the dealership as there are known problems of this in the Equinox's as well as a "14882 special coverage adjustment" offered by General Motors. I was told it was down 3 quarts of oil and that there was a leak from rear seal. Prior to this there were no warning lights of any kind. My Equinox reduced engine power while driving.
