What owners wrote
On 1/2/2017 I possibly totaled a 2015 chevy equinox and I wasn't even in it. I am the fire chief in my town and responded to a non-responsive individual call. When I arrived I was apparently distracted by the call type and what we were going to be doing next and left the vehicle in drive and exited the vehicle. It was cold so I left my vehicle running. The car sat there for about 10 - 15 minutes in drive but not moving.
The check engine light, is on I have 50,000 miles it shut off when u come to stop or idle.. Pulled code came back as p0010,& p0011, camshaft position actuator . This car has been excellent cared for. Unexceptionable.. Car was in motion, on the streets, highway s. Cars blowing for me to pull off. Have to drive with flasher to keep cars back to keep from getting rear ended.
