Used 2011 Chevrolet Equinox Consumer Reviews
2 ton bathtub
This is NOT nor should be considered a performance vehicle. The 4 cylinder engine is slow to respond even with the gas peddle on the floor. Shifting at speed can be erratic and then shifts down 1 or 2 gears to find the right RPM to gear according to what the computer thinks. Why Chevy put a 4 cylinder in a 4000 lb vehicle is beyond me.

Yet another Problem
The Equinox I bought brand new in 9/10 has now had 4 major repairs needed. While all covered underwarranty still not what I expected or paid for! Owned 4 GM vehicles before this but will never buy GM again! THeir response...3 free oil changes. Oil changes doesn't fix the inconvienence, danger to my son with car dying while i was driving, or my lack of confidence in a car I paid 20K for. Unaccactablw when you can find these are common issue with this year make and model.
In tears
I have had my Equinox for almost 2 years. Bought it used at dealership. The remote start did not work and they covered it up. Then was told my warranty is only valid after 30 days. ( wait, what?) The started having to do oil changes every 2 months. Was also doing the lurch/jumping thing when slowing or stoping. The next problem started soon after. It would die, repeatedly, would have to pull over wait 15 minutes and bunny hop the rest of the way home. Got a diagnostic done and was told the cam and crankshaft sensors needed replaced. Did that. Replaced dead battery. Still nothing. Wont turn over, wont make a sound. Was told to check ECM. I have to rent a diagnostic machine for $170. to get codes to see what else it could be. Im on disability and cant afford $1000 let alone $7000 to get my suv fixed. Im a die hard Chevy fan but im in tears over all this. Anyone know what to do? I desperately need help.
Cute but trashy!
This is a very cute suv and will excite you at the purchase... I purchased my 2011 equinox in 2107 with 45,000 miles but as everyone else has experienced there is a problem with oil burning when I return for my oil changes there is no oil in the vehicle. I received papers saying there was a lawsuit against the company for bad pistons which is causing the oil problems but still no recall... I had to replace the battery and now my transmission just all of the sudden died. 5,000 to fix and I still have payments and no one will take as a trade. I would not recommend buying this unless you keep an warranty at all times. DISAPPOINTED!!
