I have scoured the Internet and can't find a single mention of this anywhere aside from yours. Can you post the full message?

You probably won't find anything on the internet or even the onstar websight.

Mine had the famous 3rd brake light thing. It was never listed but the dealer knew about it.

 

[JDH]

She took it in this week and it was just a software update. No parts were changed.

I just got this on my '18 Equinox Diesel. It says its voluntary but it included a letter from the state of California that said my registration will be canceled because it is an emissions recall......Anyone that has had it fixed notice any change in power or fuel economy? Does anyone know more specifics on the recall?

Had my 2018 HB TD done this week, see attached copy of service. No changes noticed in performance etc. since

Hey why not post that letter right here. Very strange that the State of California would cancel your registration over a separating Axle shaft or whatever else you claim they said. Now THAT would make a great lawsuit, forget about any Lemon Law or Buyback program!

Sounds to me like the ECM isn't detecting a sensor is bad or not reading correctly. Probably just reprogramming to detect that fault if it happens. I've heard of some guys having a check engine light shortly after this. Waiting on my second oil change to take mine in.

What does a separating axle shaft have to do with emissions? Reread his post more closely.

Do you really believe California sent notice to Ssorange who just joined here hours ago, and this notice said Registration on the 2018 Equinox is going to be cancelled due to this voluntary recall and an emissions problem. Come on

Now your info in the original post was absolutely helpful!

Actually yes. I had to go get a friend's truck from California and bring it back to Texas when he transferred out there in the 90s because CalDMV wouldn't register it until he had some PVC valve recall done. Problem was the dealership could find no such recall in the database. Had to put it on a trailer until it crossed the state line or risk it getting impounded.

So nothing Cali threatens to do surprises me.

Thank you

I live here man, 39.25 Million in this State. I do feel the pain, we have to deal with lot's of crap. As you know these Chevy Cars and Trucks have to meet strict Federal & California emissions standards, and we can't have trolls posting their own fake news about their registration being cancelled because of a Chevrolet TSB or a voluntary/mandatory recall

I hope he does post the notice. Or perhaps someone else that has received a similar notice could post theirs.
