And, as a direct result of their negligence, as it relates to their known engine dilemma and their reluctance to honor a positive sales position with potential sales customers - in my opinion, it is a matter of time before someone is hurt dramatically or killed, and, as a direct result of GM and their representatives continuing negligence have caused harm to thousands of reported customers, who have suffered IDENTICAL situations of engine failure. GM should be put on notice that their product is defective and dangerous (and costly) to operate. Sold again as a used car and profited from that sale - and profited from the repairs which became necessary as a result of failure of their KNOWN DEFECTIVE ENGINE. (Mills Chevrolet, Davenport, Iowa) dealership sold this vehicle (as well as others) with this KNOWN DEFECTIVE ENGINE. GM manufactured and provided vehicles with 2.4 liter Ecotec engines which suffered one class action law suit, essentially, ignoring future generation production and sales to end users, by continuing to manufacture and provide such vehicles to their dealership representatives.

I sold it to Walser Polar Chevrolet White Bear Lake, MN for $4,000 that-?s all they were willing to offer. I know of 3 other people this has happened to last Month and there were 3 others vehicles that weekend on their lot with the same issue, I was told this by management. Thank God, I made it to White Bear Ave and a police officer showed up, it was 11 degrees below zero out. The PCV valve froze causing the rear main seal to blowout, the engine was completely destroyed. I had no warning whatsoever there was a problem until the Equinox started to sputter, the engine light came on and a few minutes later the engine shut down. Someone is going to DIE because of this, they will break down in subzero temperatures and freeze to death. They knew there was an Issue with this Make & Model, I should have been notified regarding the freezing of the PCV valve and rear engine seal blowing out. I brought my vehicle into Walser Polar Chevrolet for service as always trusting I would leave having a safe ride in the deadly winter weather conditions, that was not the case.
