Biggest lemon I bought

Hard to see out of. Doors are to high. Seeing out the is hard. Uses oil BAD. Electric problems ac cuts out sometimes and radio to. Transfer went out cooler went out and a/c pump all after 90,000 miles got 140000 on it now. Bought it from my in-laws they had it when it only had 17000 on it I bought it when it had around 77000.

Most reliable car I have ever owned.

Just an absolutely wonderful car. My car is 10 years old but it's still like brand new. I wouldn't sell it unless I was moving overseas 😢

What's going to mess up now?

We have a 2010 and I love it other than having to put money in it to keep it on the road. Chevrolet recalled a part having to do with the fuel. We had it replaced. It has under 70,000 miles on it and we've had to have the transmission replaced. The oil disappears and the gauges don't let you know the oil is low. You're constantly having to check it to make sure you don't get low. The dash lights dim on and off every once and a while. The seal on the back hatch leaks fluid on the drivers side so you have to be careful not to get any on you. It's really bad in the summertime. I've talked to a few other owners who have some of the same issues with their cars. While I love the comfort of my car, I would not recommend anyone purchase a 2010 Chevrolet Equinox.

Should’ve died, didn’t even get hurt

This was an amazing car for me. I absolutely LOVED every second I had it. I got into a serious car accident, hitting the concrete median on the highway and then flying back across to hit the guard rails, and totaled it. I definitely should have died, but I made it out with no injuries and was very impressed with the performance and safety of this car. 10/10 would recommend.

Great family car. Reliable on long trips

This car was my wife's and had mostly highway driving miles on it. Always kept the oil changed and tires rotated. Garage kept. Repaired at Chevy dealer.

Fun to drive

This car has great response time. It takes off and drives well. I like the body of this car. It’s not too bulky but provides enough weight and coverage to make me feel secure.
