General Motors issued a recall December 18, 2009 on 2010 models of Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain vehicles for failing to comply with the federal safety requirements that deal with the windshield defrosting and defogging systems and the controls and displays systems. The software is defective and may lead to the heating, A/C, defrost, radio controls, and panel illumination to become inoperative. Driving without a functioning defrost system can reduce visibility and lead to a car accident. This recall involves more than 59,000 vehicles.
