A very nice car and affordable

This is a great med car. Has enough room and ample storage space. Color choices are excellent and gas mileage is good for commuting to and from a distance of 40 miles per day.

2006 Chev Equinox, body seal problems, Engine prob

Overall design is good , interior well made although seat cables could better. 52,335 mi. on a 2006 Equinox. Had problems for last two years of Roif and door seals leaking caused by getting clogged all tbe time. Now have problems with transmission failing in drive, jerks in reverse. Now a costly trip to dealer.

Besides my sons' Trailblazer, the Equinox is a perfect match for my needs, it is the most comfortable vehicle I've ever driven I love it.

Perfect for me

I like it. I want it. It's a nice truck. Suitable for me. Exactly what I need especially with a baby on the way and 2 other small kids.

Car for Life

Runs like it was new. Follow the maintenance schedule and we are pushing toward 150K in mileage - not looking to buy for the foreseeable future; and if we do it will be another Equinox

Very good vehicle but poor gas mileage

The car is very reliable. Never had any major issues with it, and really enjoyed the AWD. Just wish it didn't do so poorly on gas.
