2006 Chevrolet Equinox LT review from North America
"Save your Money!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I bought my equinox just a little over a year ago from Today Chevrolet in Oxnard, Ca. 2 months after my purchase, one day my car just wouldn't move. I checked everything and started pushing the gas pedal completely flooring it, and it still wouldn't move. After getting it towed back to the dealer, the next day, I was so upset to find out that, there was a leak in the side panel of the driver's side door. When they removed the paneling, all the wiring was rusted and the whole computer in my car had to be replaced.
About 3 months ago, my brakes had to be replaced at only 20000 on my car.
And most recently, my car is being serviced because the heat went out. Apparently, the little door that holds heat in/out was broken and needed to be replaced. In order to do that, they had to take out the whole dashboard of my car!! I honestly don't know what to say anymore about my car, except that I wish I hadn't traded in my scion!!
Mad as Heck in Oxnard!!
General comments?
It's an okay car I guess!! It fits my needs, but, is just becoming a hassle when it needs to be in the shop!
