  Equinox fails to meet MPG expectations - 2010 Chevrolet Equinox
  By danblaha - June 1 - 8:29 am

  We purchased our beautiful Equinox in March 10. The ride and handling are better than expected as is the overall look. BUT, when it come to the gas-millage Very disappointing! I am 73 ys young and a careful driver. I do not race-off from a stop light/sign and do not drive over 75 on the highway. I do not know where Chevy gets its right to estimate 32 MPG (highway), the best I can do is 22.5 MPG. Which overall is not bad, but no where is it what I expected. Traded a 05 Murano which got 20 MPG in the city and 24 on the road, so after all the hype about the MPG of the Equinox I feel that Chevy is misrepresenting the facts. Dont get me wrong, I do love it, will C say on my 2nd oil change.

  Great small SUV - 2010 Chevrolet Equinox
  By phil clark - April 27 - 11:06 am

  Mine has the V6 option. Rides great and more room than you would expect especially in rear seat area. Son in law says there is more room than in my Avalanche. The gas mileage on the V6 is not what they had claimed with best ever less than 20 combined and if mostly in town drops to 15 or so. Still improvement on the Avalanche I traded in, but could be better. Hopefully that improves once broken in and get past the first oil change too. Interior is very stylish with a friend comparing it to cars like the Lexus,now thats a step up for GM. Shows they are moving in the right direction.

  Aggravating Equinox - 2010 Chevrolet Equinox
  By icemate - March 3 - 12:16 pm

  Have had auto for 3 months and have had to have a battery jump several times already. This vehicle has problems with windows going down on their own resulting in rain and snow to enter. Also at times does not allow you to lock vehicle so shopping is a problem. Mileage is very good, even in city driving. Ride is stiff and interior looks cheap. Remote start is aftermarket done by dealer and has problems. Starts at random and kills battery as radio and wipers continue to run until battery is dead. Should have bought a different auto from another mfg.

  Bought one, big problems - 2010 Chevrolet Equinox
  By wallyuwl - August 21 - 8:43 am

  Wrote one of the first reviews on this after test driving. Bought one a week ago. Tranny problems already w/ 4 cyl. When downshifting from 4-3 and 3- 4 it shifts too early, causing sudden deceleration. Also jittery (front to back) coasting at 17mph, and when accelerating in low 30s. In dealer right now getting checked out. Seems others have experienced it, but not everyone, so it isnt "normal", just might be a bad batch of trannys (assuming it is tranny). See my experiences in "2010 Equinox Problems" thread on Edmunds forum. Love ride, technology, and interior. Highly recommend is tranny is right.

  Love the car BUT - 2010 Chevrolet Equinox
  By Driver - July 31 - 3:56 pm

  I really love the design and the interior of my Equinox. Cargo space could be bigger. I get OK gas mileage but its a 6 cyl so its not as good as the 4 cyl mileage advertised. Problem with it is the computer system. At first the remote start wouldnt work. At the moment its in the shop for "Air Bag Service" light on, been in shop for 3 days while they hook computer up with GM to find out what the problem is. Ordered a cargo cover which should have been with the car, took two months to get it. Other than minor but time consuming problems I like it. First car Ive ever had though that has been in the shop so much

  Its OK...But - 2010 Chevrolet Equinox
  By cbassett - May 13 - 2:06 pm

  Ive been trying to figure out what kind of personality disorder designed the interior controls on this car. The bizarre configuration of the heating devices is just nothing short of irresponsible. You have to pull over and stop to adjust the settings. Go ahead and TRY to reset the trip odometer when you fill the gas tank. After sitting there for 5 minutes, you can eventually get to the item that you need to reset. The interior controls just make me mad every time I need to touch them. Ive actually looked at other vehicles available because this issue is so irritating to me.

  Highlander vs NOX - 2010 Chevrolet Equinox
  By FCA - April 10 - 10:00 pm

  I had 01 Highlander with 200k and needed to replace the engine! I ordered the Nox and compared to the HL the Nox wins in all catigories expect cargo volume. Very quite, smooth, solid vehicle. Seems to ride bigger than it is. Not sure about the mileage yet only have 336kls on it.

  road review - 2010 Chevrolet Equinox
  By tom - November 15 - 6:13 pm

  just took a trip from alamogordo nm to abq nm about 440miles round trip. road type included secondary, interstate, and city. Mileage overall was 33.8. the cabin was quite. handling was great and leg room galore. i dont know what more you could ask for the price. the 4 banger reacted strong, stronger than my old 3.4 six. i think gm has a winner here.

  to somewhat stressed. ( HELP ) ME TOO - 2010 Chevrolet Equinox
  By Kristy0108 - October 5 - 7:00 am

  Back on 4/22/2010 another concerned Chevy owner mentioned engine noise and getting louder I am experiencing. I myself own the same model and I have brought this to my dealerships attention and also to Chevy customer relations. My engine is making a constant ticking noise I never owned a car so loud before the engine sounds like its 10 yrs old? Chevy is like "oh well there is nothing we can do about it" its just the way it is? What? This a brand new car. This car should not be making any engine noise its especially loud when accelerating. The dealer said its the fuel pressure regulator and there is nothing they can do? I am deeply disappointed in Chevy gm. Please help

  So far so good . . . - 2010 Chevrolet Equinox
  By Ed - September 22 - 9:33 pm

  I set out to buy the best available AWD small SUV. I really didnt care where it was built or who made it. I compared Honda CRV, Toyota Rav4 and the new Chevy Equinox. I purchased the Equinox and have no regrets. The Equinox is larger, nicer looking and rated higher in the mileage department. So far I am averaging 25.4 mpg during a typical 40 mile (one way) daily commute on a mix of secondary roads and state highways. With only 1400 miles on the Equinox, I expect the mileage to improve a bit more.
