Horrible vehicle

Will never buy a Chevy again. Next purchase will be Toyota, a non-American made car.

Major issues with this vehicle

I purchased my Equinox new in Dec 2009 (2010 model). I have been meticulous about maintaining it. Despite my efforts, this vehicle has had major engine and transmission issues and cost me thousands of $ in major repairs. By a honda, reliable and less costly to repair.

Nothing but trouble.

I inherited this car and that is the only reason I still have it. However, I've had to pour between $5-10k into constant engine repairs over the last 2 years. Now its burning oil at ~80k miles. Hadn't even gone 5000 since last oil change.

Constantly giving me grief.

Will be the last GM product we will own. I'm so fed up with the reliability of the Equinox. I've had to put over $5k into the engine in the last two years. The Key fobs, all three of them, have fallen apart like they were 30 years old. (Not! one was <5). I've had Montana's S-10, Sonoma and I've had it with this Equinox.

Has way too many issue's

Too many issue's and thousands of money wasted to end up having the car overheat and cause the car to not work. Electrical issue's, brake issue's, motor issue's, engine issue's, timing belt brakes, heat and ac not working even after getting fixed, oil leakage, oil consumption, very slow car, gas is bad and a really bad car and this year car shouldn't be allowed to be sold. They all need to get smashed up. The cars been recalled for only a few issues. But mine is non stop issues since getting the car and and only had for 2 yrs until it wasn't driveable anymore. Was constantly in the auto shop and kept having tons of work done. It's expensive to repair with non stop issue's.

Engine burning through oil.

After 3 months the engine burned through 60% of the oil I put in. I am told after 120,000 miles General Motors will longer fix a known issue in the engine. I'm at 128. Avoid this engine after 120,000 miles.

Engine Design Flaw

This vehicle needs to be recalled due to the design flaw that they do not advertise. It was brought to our attention after a conversation at the dealership. If anyone owns one of these, I would have the PCV checked and make sure it isn't clogged. This can be a very dangerous situation. This is my last Chevrolet.

I do not recommend this vehicle

in regards to my 2010 Chevy Equinox, I do not recommended this 2010 year model, we have done too many repairs that were unnecessary but needed since the first day we bought it from the dealer as new, the hassle of having the vehicle towed to the dealer was an inconvenience

Would not recommend the Equinox

I have had many issues with my vehicle. After only owning it for about a year, 2 pistons went out in it, timing, oil issues, ect. Chevy knows there is an issue with the engine and oil use in the vehicle I have, but no recall to fix it has been issued. There was even a class action lawsuit about the issues with the 2010 Equinox.

Engine concerns

My throttle body just went at 80k miles and my mechanic is concerned with the health of the engine in general. Hope to get another 20k miles. No more trips...just local travel around Park Ridge

2010 Chevy Equinox LT Quality

Would have gave it 10 across the board if GM would follow up in the errors but it's ashame that companies are allowed to rob citizens of hard earned cash so so sad to say, don't buy American since American products are not worth the trouble anymore

design and quality of vehicle

I have had several problems with the vehicle. Right now the dash lights are not working as they should and an article on the internet indicated that the cause is unknown. I would not purchase another Equinox. Too many dead zones while driving where vehicle can creep up on you.

Chevy Equinox Evaluation

If only had it for 6 months and am basically happy with its performance, gas mileage and comfort. I did have an issue with battery, starter and the positive cable. Got that requires and it seems okay now. I think this might be a typical problem for this car.

Love My Equinox ... but....

Lots of room, comfortable, but needs a/c vents for the back seats or at least be able to turn or position the front vents better . I have the 4 cyl engine and use a lot of oil. Has power when you need it though. ECO mode is good on trips with constant speed, like interstate driving. Like being able to look at tire pressure, but the sensors are expensive to replace.

Very satisfactory

Like the advertisement - Takes a licking & Keeps ticking! This was a lease vehicle and happy I was next in line for purchase. Keep making quality vehicle for the road. I appreciate the bumper to bumper warranty, bring it back.
