Safety Issue:

General Motors, LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2020-2023 Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain vehicles.

Defect Description:

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

Apparently my vehicle is experiencing the same fuel system and infotainment issues that others have been recalled for. As someone who has been diagnosed with car related PTSD; these issues have become very distressing to say the least. The infotainment system has shut off countless times while driving. I was traveling and missed my exit,I've also been abruptly been disconnected from important work calls and doctors offices. The fuel system is leaking fuel and the smell comes through the vents. As one of two people that utilize this vehicle that are asthmatic; this is very dangerous for us. Also my toddler aged niece cannot ride because of the harsh chemicals she would have to breathe in. Because of the leaking fuel, I'm terrified that it could breakdown anywhere or better yet worse catch fire while I'm driving. I have attached photos of the issues,unfortunately I can't upload the videos but I have countless in regards to the infotainment system and a video message from the mechanic in regards to the fuel system. If there is anyway I can send them also,it would be appreciated.
