This morning i was going to try to get it to work to be closer to someone who could check…

    I received a letter from chevrolet (july 2013) explaining that there are issues with numerous engine parts, particularly the fuel pump and balance chain. Chevrolet stated that they are extending my power train warranty to 10 years or 120,000 miles, whichever occurs first. I have had the balance chain replace twice already. I am concerned that the condition with the fuel pump could cause a fire or serious engine…

    I was driving my equinox out of a parking lot and it stalled, i restarted it, drove it up the road and was going about 30 mph and it stalled again, i turned around back to the parking lot and it happened 2 more times. I have also be getting very poor gas mileage (15-18mph). The car was towed to the dealer and they said they reset the electrical control module because it had errors on it. This has thus far resolved…

    Concerning 2011 chevy equinox 4cyl, on startup, there will be a loud knocking noise, sounds as if there is no oil in the engine, sound lasts from 1-5 seconds then goes away. Most of the times it will do it on first start-up of the day but there have been a few times where it has done it multiple times in the same day. Car has been in the shop 4 times for the same issue, they have replaced the cam actuator and…

    Purchased 2011 equinox with 4-cyl engine specifically for the listed 32/23 mpg. I drive 30 miles per day back and forth to work, figured i would get around 24-25 mpg for in city highway driving. Instead, i have gotten no better than 21 mpg and usually less. I then drove from kansas city to oklahoma city for work, used cruise control most of time. However, it was windy so i figured it wouldn't quite be at 32.…
