Issue ID	1120514
Internal NHTSA #	10645086
Manufacurer	General Motors LLC
Brand	CHEVROLET
Model	EQUINOX
Model Year	2013
File date	05/10/14
Component	SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The brakes failed to stop the car on a rocky off-road mountain public access road. The road consisted of a low grade incline, and the anti-lock brakes froze and caused the vehicle to skid and the brakes froze up and the vehicle was gaining momentum dangerously for about 30 seconds until the grade leveled. However, i was found myself looking for a place to run off the road to stop the car before it finally stopped. I was lucky there were no other vehicles coming toward me around the curves. I have driven rocky mountain roads many times before, and i assumed that this vehicle would be safe to drive, but it was not suitable to off-road driving. I want to warn others to not take this vehicle off road, even though it looks like and is assumed by buyers as a safe vehicle driving in rocky, off-road conditions.
