"This car should be burned!"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Good grief, I don't think there is enough room for all of the problems I have had with this car!

Starter, battery, transmission, front end, brakes, bad tires, knobs and buttons worn out...

Should have 80,000 warranty already worn out at 35000 miles, and bonus I am over 10,000 upside down in this vehicle, with no hope of escape other than bankruptcy.

General comments?

I will NEVER buy another Chevy as long as I live, or a GM car, because of the customer service and zero quality vehicle. Thank GOD the dealership talked me into the extended warranty. I SUED CHEVY AND WON!!! Even if you have had it more than one year (typical lemon law) they call it a UCC violation!! SUE SUE SUE...

I heard someone above comment about their car being recalled; I have yet to receive a recall! I truly believe GM/Chevy is aware of ALL of our issues! I am furious!

I could not agree with you more. I have a 2006 Equinox and I wish I could just light a match to this car. GM is absolutely no help.

I made the mistake of buying this car in the first place, after my 2002 Olds Intrigue went down the crapper, the Chevy dealer was the only place that would take the car. I will never own a GM vehicle as long as I live.

I purchased a 2008 Dodge Durango, which, no lie, gets better gas mileage with a Hemi V8, than the puny six cylinder the Equinox has. The Durango is built FAR better, is more comfortable, and I got a Lifetime warranty. I have never had a Dodge vehicle before, but I feel this is a better choice.

We also just purchased a Ford Fusion for my wife. The difference in quality between Ford and Chevy is phenomenal. It's clear why GM is having financial difficulty. I'm now trying to sell the Equinox for well below listed value, but I feel bad dumping this piece of crap off to someone else...
