Gas Recirculation Valve (egr Valve) problems of the 2014 Chevrolet Equinox

Chevy Equinox 2014 blew a rear main seal at 88,610 miles after being told is excessively consumes oil. I heard a pop and the low pressure indicator appeared. No indicator was present to show I had low oil at the time of the vehicle leak starting, so I was left stranded on the side of a highway for about 3 hours in -10 degree weather. This was a "common issue" in these models and I was told I must pay 1,800$ to repair it as there are no recalls out on this particular model. The engine completely ate my oil and neglected to inform that it was doing so and it was low, resulting in me being stuck in my car with no heat.

In my 2014 Chevrolet Equinox, noontime, Sunday, sitting at red light pointed west, three lane road, waiting to cross 7 lane road, got the green light, proceeded forward up to maybe 10mph and got to about 2nd lane of 7 to cross intersection, then wham, I am hit in the intersection, left side just in front of front wheel, by car that ran red light at full speed going north, basically took front of my car off, spun me 1 3/4 times to now face south, the air bags did not deploy, my body left side head, shoulder and hip hit the left side interior even though my seat beat was on (was dazed and had help getting belt off) and received concussion, neck injury, hearing difficulty, accelerated memory loss issues, damaged shoulder, hip troubles, bouts of unexplained outbursts from little anxiety stimulus, heightened startle response, nightmares, and severe trouble controlling anxiety that were all not present prior to the crash. The car was totaled immediately by the insurance company, and even though witnesses saw that I had the green and that the car that hit me at a 90 degree and estimated to be doing 35-50mph while running the red light, the attorney was unable to block the quick disappear of the vehicle and the police investigators crash site notes and report was very incomplete and wrongly documented the accident. My concern is that I have lingering pains, hip trouble, still low pain left side head, neck tensions, new memory issues, severe anxiety attacks that cause over 220 bp and panic breathing issues, and new struggles with mobility I did not have before the crash, and that with horrific impact that spun me nearly 2 times around, took the front of car, declared total loss -- why did none of air bags go off in this 2014 Chevrolet Equinox this accident crash June 24, 2018 ??? attached 5 pics my vehicle next day +crash sketch +florida dhsmv crash report me&my car.

Greetings, we purchased a used chevy eq. A few months ago at 59000 miles for my wife, currently 60000. Since I bought it the engine has rattling/clicking noise. I bought the vehicle with a rebuilt title from an individual and the noise wasn't that bad. I thought it was because of old oil and hadn't suspected such an engine problem. I am a mechanical engineer myself and couldn't think that an engine would have a defect which affects all of these chevy vehicles so I purchased it. Today I contacted chevy customer service and explained the problem. I was told that they receive too many same complaints. However, there is no recall related to 2014 year models and since it went to salvage condition that it is now out warranty. My car had a front bumper accident, and no radiator or engine issue after the accident. So it is definitely related to a defected engine. Although the powertrain is protected up to 100k miles, due to the title status the owner has to pay for all the expenses. I was told that, if it had a recall, regardless of title status they would repair it. They used a very bad defected engine in their vehicles and did not issue a recall. There are too many similar complaints posted on websites by upset owners, but they still do not issue a recall in order not to cover this problem. I am very regret that I purchased a gm vehicle. I will never again. Can NHTSA do something about it, because these engines are really dangerous on the roads. People posted the same problem about their car which have only 8 to 20k miles in them. The vehicle makes this rattling noise on idle, on reverse gear very much and loses so much power between 20-55 mph, does not accelerate properly and the noise is increased during acceleration. It was addressed as timing chain issue. The engine burns oil. Thank you. Best regards, sedat peker.
