  Safety is Number ONE!!! - 2005 Chevrolet Equinox
  By cindy - September 11 - 11:20 am

  My daughter loved driving this vehicle. It drives very smooth, like a car, but she is up higher and can see better. Recently, a car sideswiped her on the freeway, causing her to lose control. She hit a cement guardrail almost head on doing 55mph in her Equinox. She 360d across the freeway and ended up against the opposite guardrail and yet SHE WALKED AWAY with just some soreness and a small seatbelt mark!!! The vehicle was totalled because it did what it was designed to do - take the impact and protect the passengers. And OnStar called her just like in the commercials. We are definitely getting her another Equinox to replace it. Her safety is number one!

  I hated this vehicle! - 2005 Chevrolet Equinox
  By judy - September 8 - 5:52 pm

  After 2 horrible winters I wanted a vehicle with better clearance. I was driving a VW Golf (which I loved!) The Equinox had 35,000 miles on it when we bought it. The interior was soiled and we couldnt get it clean. We immediately had to replace the shocks and struts. The first time we used the air conditioning it stopped working after 20 minutes and needs a new compressor @ $500. You cant hear the radio because of the outside noise and every time I turned right it made a horrible noise! Plus it has some bad blind spots. After 6 months we traded it in. My confidence in this car was zero.

  best money I have spent on a car yet - 2005 Chevrolet Equinox
  By joe - August 27 - 2:13 pm

  I see some people had bad experiences here, you cant make everyone happy. This is an amazing car for the price and mine has over 129K miles on it! I have had autos from domestic and foriegn makes and our Equinox is incredible. The GREATS: ON STAR!!! Handling, int. space, handling in snow, exterior looks, exhaust sounds sporty. The GOODS: fuel MPG, pick up, rear seat comfort, easy to work on. Nice sound features The BAD: Front leather seats not comfortable on trips, road noise, int. plastic losing coating. OVERALL: the car is $25K with leather and all wheel drive!!! What do you expect?? We have had no problems,and this one we love!! ps.Our Honda needed a new motor and Nissan 2 trannys so...

  STAY AWAY - 2005 Chevrolet Equinox
  By CHEVYCHASE - August 24 - 9:36 pm

  The car is junk. I bought it new and have had many problems. The key lock broke on drivers door. GM decided to only put one key entry on the car, how cheap is that? I can only unlock it with the remote (its great when the battery dies). Front bearings went at about 20k. Door handle came off in my hand, so open the doors very carfully on this heap. The interior finish on the dash has pealed off, it looks like it is 30 yrs old. There is actually a blind spot out the front windshield when looking across to the right caused by the window fram and the exterior mirror.

  Really good family car for the price! - 2005 Chevrolet Equinox
  By Georgia Driver - August 15 - 3:53 am

  Weve had the car for about a 1.5 years now. It has not been taken to the shop even once in all that time. The price was excellent for the quality. The layout and design of the trunk and backseats are really quite good. The seats in the front are very comfortable, but the ones in the back are just a little uncomfortable.

  Love at first sight....But - 2005 Chevrolet Equinox
  By Robert Smith - August 12 - 10:00 am

  After having the Equinox in my possession now for a couple of weeks I can say I love it in many ways but not without a few issues.....The backseat is very hard and uncompfortable and the headrests restrict your view (too High)..The stereo is hard to figure out but Im getting it. Lastly Im a little concerned about he transmission, (going down inclines it holds you back ) and just seems different from any other vehicle Ive ever driven...I guess time will tell on this issue

  Good small suv - 2005 Chevrolet Equinox
  By cayo - August 9 - 6:09 pm

  This car is a really good small suv. Driving it is very fun. It has a very good engine performance the 5speed trans make the ride feel very smooth. Even though some times the last gear takes a bit to long to kick in. Very Nice for long trips. Lots of space inside.

  Drives and handles great, only thing it could use would be some grab handles for ease of exiting. Fit and finish are first rate, with very comfortable seating arrangements.
