Navigational (global Positioning System) Gps Problems of Chevrolet Equinox

The vehicle had a fault in its gps and it also had no communication with emergency assistance. This also caused battery problems that generated on two occasions that the vehicle did not start.

Lcd screen as part of the infotainment system blanks out then repeatedly restarts. This goes for the entire drive. The gps is not picking up the correct temperature and reports in celsius not fahrenheit. I'm not able to use any of the infotainment features including not being able to use the phone feature. Also the radio volume increases and decreases on its own. All of this is very distracting as I drive.

First time owner of this vehicle. The end of June, 2014 began noticing that the gps would not save destinations when traveling, would have to reenter address anytime the ignition was turned off and back on. Shortly after this, the clock stopped working, when the time was corrected, if would reset after ignition was turned off and back on to the incorrect time. The bluetooth also began randomly disconnecting and would not connect anymore. Sept. 24th, the vehicle was brought to dealership where purchased to see what was wrong. Owner was told the entire navigation system would have to be replaced, for quoted $1300. Owner not satisfied, was told that it was a defect from the manufacturer, and that there was bad wiring. Owner feels that gm should cover the defective part. If bad wiring exists, this could be a safety hazard. Owner also found service bulletin pi-0285-d, which was consistent with the problems that had been occurring. Due to the fact that the owner did not purchase an extended warranty, gm will only cover a percentage of the cost to replace the defective part.
