While in motion the car randomly and quickly decelerates and will not allow you to accelerate. Phillips Chevrolet has attempted to repair the car citing engine power reduction, transmission, stabilatrak and non verifiable issues over a 2 month period. Within that 2 month period, May 18, 2020 to July 24, 2020, there were 7 attempts to repair the car. All 7 attempts were unsuccessful. Between June 22, 2020 and July 30, 2020 there were more than 20 telephone calls placed between General Motors and I, regarding this vehicle and it's engine, transmission and non-verifiable issues. General Motors and phillips Chevrolet are refusing to acknowledge that the car is a lemon. There are currently a little over 8,500 miles on the car and I am in fear of my life each time I enter the car and I have made phillips Chevrolet and General Motors aware of this issue. This is my second NHTSA report. The initial NHTSA report is 302587, was filed on June 22, 2020. Phillips Chevrolet and General Motors are refusing to provide me with a safe vehicle to travel in despite 7 service visits with phillips Chevrolet, and more than 20 telephone interactions with General Motors. There a more reports but your system will only allow me five documents,

Purchased new car on September 7 2019. Started having car issues on 9/25/2019 took car in on 9/27/2019. Car was making loud screeching noises, brake pedal would get hard. Was hard to break. When reversing screeching noise would get louder and louder. Was told by a Chevrolet technician car was fine it was because it was new. Took car in once again on 12/26/2019 vehicle would randomly not turn on, brake pedal would get hard, car would screech. Came to the point were I was scared to take the car to the grocery store because I was unsure on whether the car would randomly not start. Inform Chevrolet of everett and was told it was 3 bolts, and was given the car back. Took car to California after the dealer told me car was completely safe. 1/14/2020 car was towed to dealership because it would not turn on. Called Chevrolet they said they do not know what is wrong with the car. They do not understand why it turns off and why it won't turn on. Called GM motors they said they are unable to help but I can start a case in which I did. Went to Chevrolet on 1/24/2020 they said they have no idea on why the vehicle is having starting problems, tried making me take the vehicle home knowing it is unsafe because they can't fix it. Car has been sitting in shop now for 14 days and no one has information on how to help me, nor has anyone contacted me, I have calling records on how many calls I've made to GM motors trying to get a hold of anyone who can help me but they always state no one is available to help me. GM motors also did 'advice'me to not seek any legal help if I wanted to be helped.

Service ESC message came on twice my new 2019 Chevy Equinox premier( each time vehicle was stationary).I dismiss message each time so I can see the digital odometer when I drive, and take vehicle to my dealership (each time they don't document the problem). They said, each time, message has to be on for them to detect the problem. Is that true?
