Chevrolet Equinox Change Vehicle

"It is very sluggish when accelerating. We have the 4 cylinder engine, it doesn't like steep roads."

"the ride. it's the fastest vehicle i've ever driven speed on the highway. handling wow."

"Rides like a dream at higway speeds. Four cylinder engine underpowered. Turning radius poor. Oil consumption terrible. Led to premature engine failure."

"The handling is really outstanding. On tight turns and corners I feel like it has a magnet connected to the road. Very predictable and reliable. On the other hand, the acceleration is dreadful. I call it the Flintstones Car, you need to flap your arms to get it moving."

"A bit slow transmission when going from reverse to forward and turning radius is not very tight"

"Very quiet inside and holds the road well on long trips. --- economical."

"Slow acceleration, shifts hard, clutch slips, but drives straight and is comfortable."

"Acceleration is terrible and I feel vulnerable at intersections. In ECO mode, the acceleration is so poor I consider it dangerous."

"The engine, probably because of the low oil problem, makes a clunking noise all the time which makes accelerating a little scary, like you're going to blow a rod or head gasket. The steering wheel shakes when you apply the breaks."

"Acceleration is only adequate as we have the 4 cylinder. It often downshifts at 110 kph or higher with slightest upgrade and some headwind - not enough power. The ride is good other than on rough roads. car is quiet, and an excellent highway cruiser. Handling is good but the vehicle is somewhat difficult to park as there are no visual references. At sharp right hand corners in city driving we often hit the curb with the right side rear wheel as we lose reference. Car does not turn very sharp when parking. The car is excellent on loose gravel roads; we have front wheel drive. The brakes and Michelin tires work very well, we have been in several dangerous situations where extreme braking was needed. We also hit a deer at highway speeds which did some $10,000 damages but the car still got us home without problem even though radiator was pushed up tight to the front of motor. We had no injury but the deer was thrown hard into the ditch."

"This car is very comfortable driving. It is a little under powered, but this is not a major problem. Most of the miles on this car have been Interstate driving and it does a great job over the road."

"The seating and noise cancellation are amazing and contribute to a very comfortable, quiet ride."

"The car is quite loud"

"The seats are uncomfortable as the sides of the seats turn up and press against the outside of my thighs. Getting out of the seat I have to go up and over that same upturned seat. Also it is terribly noisy inside the car when driving on the highway."

"The A/C has never worked correctly. It cools but doesn't chill. I quit going back because they always said it checked out. I bought a thermometer and put it in the vent and it never went below 40 always 40-45 degrees no matter what the temp was outside."

"The Chevrolet Equinox is a very comfortable riding car--seats are extremely comfortable. Have 4 cyl which is fine on open road but could use a little more get up and go."

"Had the air conditioner replaced three times."

"The only issue with the 2010 Chevy Equinox climate control is, the a/c only blows cool air in the front seat area. Back seat passengers don't get adequate cool air."

"Seats are not comfortable - wife would rather ride in the truck."

"i like the seats and ride. there appears to be noise in the cabin"

"seats are comfortable, good for long distance driving with lumbar support. Heated seats in winter is great."

"We drove from Massachusetts to California and back and found the car very comfortable and a pleasure to drive. It is also roomy. In addition to our luggage, we had my husband's wheel chair and walker, and a large cooler."

"We had a Venture that was very comfy and had plenty of storage pockets, plus was easy to get in and out. The Equinox has a seat that has almost like a lip on it, making it more difficult for getting out. With fewer pockets, there is no place for even my sunglasses :("

"I'd like a better lumbar support in my 2010 Equinox driver's seat. There is one but it has never worked!"

"No rear A/C vents means it takes time to cool down rear seat passengers."

"Plenty of front and rear legroom. Firm seats (good). Acceptable driving noise."

"The seats are made for smaller people. If one or both occupants are large the curved type seats are uncomfortable. Should offer a straight standard bucket seat."

"Harsh ride, very noisy. Long rides take a toll. Stop every 50 to 75 miles."

"Comfortable seating. Plenty of legroom."

"I am over 6 feet tall and am very comfortable with the driving position and power seats. The passenger and rear seats are also comfortable and very spacious. The car is quiet at all speeds except under hard acceleration."

"Very comfortable"

"My husband has a bad back, but even so he is comfortable riding long distances in our Equinox. A few years ago we drove from Massachusetts to California and back and found the ride to be very comfortable. We weren't bothered by road noise or anything else. We've made other long road trips in equal comfort."

"seats are good"

"Don't buy new models in their first year of production."

"The seats are very comfortable and supportive, especiallyfor long trips. Noise and ride are average."

"It is very comfortable for a tall person like me. The ride is comfortable, road noise is minimal."

"HAD TO GET CUSTOM CUSHIONS MADE SEATS ARE UNCOMFORTABLE FOR SOME ONE WITH BACK PROBLEMS"

"Ride is somewhat stiff and seats are a little thin/hard. While not uncomfortable, I would like a little softer ride and seats."

"Seats are very comfortable easy to change to my comfort I have enjoyed owning this car"

"This vehicle was bought in Fall of 2009 and we still drive it when we are in Michigan and take to family in the East coast. This gives us the room we need to take things and gives us a good gas range."

"Excellent fuel mileage, good reliability and nicely styled vehicle that is practical. Some issues with this being a first year model when purchased but all items were addressed and rectified."

"Engine failure at 91000 miles. Limited support from GM and dealer."

"I have not put any money in this vehicle except for new tires and a battery. I currently have 97,000 miles on it."

"For a relatively modest price, I bought a utilitarian vehicle that is comfortable for passengers, carries a large cargo load, and is inexpensive to operate."

"It has been driven on adirt road daily for 5 years and 120000 miles. Horrible turning radius!"

"$9k engine and transmission rebuild at 115000 miles. Had oil issues which ruined the whole drivetrain. The Chevy dealer said it was my fault for not checking the oil every 1k miles and needing to add oil every 2k miles."

"The 2010 is an oil burner. I just replaced the AC compressor for the third time."

"My 2010 Chevrolet Equinox has been very reliable and inexpensive to own while getting good features and performance for the money."

"Lots of problems with this vehicle. Just a bad model year I guess. It burns off oil too quickly which the dealer just wants us to being it in more frequently for oil changes. The engine, probably because of the oil problem, makes a clunking noise all the time which makes accelerating a little scary, like you're going to blow a rod or head gasket. The AC has had multiple breakdowns, replaced the pump twice. Anyway, that is just a few things, there are more."

"Dependability Gas mileage Value"
