[QUOTE="Krissy, post: 31500, member: 12395"] 2020 Chevy Equinox owner here. At approximately 75,000 miles, my vehicle suddenly displayed “Engine Power Reduced” while driving and the brake pedal became extremely hard due to a vacuum pump failure. I was able to stop safely, but it was a frightening experience, especially with my children in the vehicle. The vehicle required teardown involving the vacuum pump, timing chain, camshaft, and VVT-related components. I preserved the original parts, documented the repair, and filed an NHTSA safety complaint. Posting in case other Equinox/Terrain owners have experienced similar brake assist or vacuum pump failures.
