  Good, but needs improvements - 2005 Chevrolet Equinox
  By rms492 - March 31 - 1:43 pm

  Bought an 05 Equinox, used at CarMax. Had about 26,000 miles, I put about 15K a year. Now approaching 60K. The Equinox is an average SUV, nothing remarkable about it. It goes about its business well. I replaced the front brakes (rotors and pads) at about 35K, the cheap rotors they came with were warped. I bought Bendex rotors, great rotors! Also, the usual starting problem, the engine will not fully turn over, without pressing the gas (appears to happen to many people, according to here). Also, high beam light flickers on and off when you use turn signals. Overall an okay SUV, but cheap interior.

  A Great Choice - 2005 Chevrolet Equinox
  By Joe Capita - March 21 - 2:50 pm

  I recently purchases an Equinox LT and I have been very satisfied. I traded in a Mercedes ML 320, so I was a bit concerned about the quality of the Equinox, but those concerns were unfounded. In a lot of ways, I like the Equinox better. It has a lower center of gravity, drives more nimbly, has better power, and gets better gas mileage than the ML320. The quality of the interior and exterior are not noticibly different. Although Ive only had the Equinox about a month, Im feeling very good about the purchase. Id recommend it to anybody.

  The Chevy Equinox is a stylish and comfortable ride with an affordable price tag. By far one of the best on the market.

  One Great Chevy - 2005 Chevrolet Equinox
  By caleros - March 11 - 10:00 am

  Bought this vehicle about 2 weeks ago, and I really love it. I wasnt really thinking about getting an SUV until I came across a picture of this vehicle on GMs website and instantly liked the exterior design and the price range was affordable so I test drove it and was on my way to becoming a new Nox owner.

  So far so good - 2005 Chevrolet Equinox
  By gmm - March 10 - 11:37 am

  I have read the other reviews, and find I share some experiences. The interior paint chips easily, but a dealership employee suggested I use a sharpie to fill in the gaps (thanks). The front tires wore out quickly, but it is a front wheel drive vehicle. The gas mileage is between 20 and 25, no complaints there. I do agree that the windshield is a bad deisgn in snowy conditions. All in all I like the Equinox. The resale value doesnt look that good, so I will be driving this car into the ground. My biggest complaint is that I found out that the motor was made in China. I have always bought American, and I bought the Equinox thinking I was doing just that. I may have bought my last US car

  Nox Rocks! - 2005 Chevrolet Equinox
  By Robert in Baraboo - March 6 - 10:00 am

  Our only complaint is with the turning radius. Its not as tight as youd expect on a car this size. Otherwise the nox is a great ride. Well put together, quiet, and snappy. We frequently travel with four adult occupants and Im 62. Everyone is amazed with the leg room in front and back. Doors are very easy to get in and out. Overall, two thumbs up on this new Chevy!

  Great value - 2005 Chevrolet Equinox
  By Elaine Leo - March 6 - 10:00 am

  My husband used to sell Chevys and was very impressed with this new model. We chose all-wheel drive, as he was cautious about front wheel drive from previous models. We have had a noise in the front suspension, had it diagnosed by the dealer was told there is a service note for front strut issues with no fix set yet. Concerned about damage to tires and other damage to front end. Only other issue is tilt wheel control and visability with rear seat head rests. Otherwise, the vehicle is great!
