15. Recalls
Domestic automakers have never been immune to quality issues, but it would appear that, in recent years, GM has been at the forefront of quality issues. The automaker has been experiencing recalls left and right. First, the Equinox SUV was recalled a total of 16 times since its introduction in 2005. This is a lot for any vehicle, much less a brand-new crossover SUV. That’s not to say that the Equinox is a bad model by any means, but its quality has gone by the wayside.
Automakers are scurrying to get these vehicles out onto the market and the quality is suffering. The Equinox has had all kinds of different issues. GM could do better by the consumers who are scooping these things up.
