Replying to: dmathews3 (Jul 06, 2009 4:59 pm) I would certainly agree; several who post in this forum need to make use of the browser's, or Edumunds', spell checker. When using Firefox, and others, real time spell checking is a reality. But, then again, perhaps they need a grammar checker too!   For those who are complaining about the Equinox, somehow I feel that some posters may not actually own one, rather they're simply blasting the product. And, for those who don't know, the V6 commonly found in the Equinox is built in China, not the USA. So, for those who think Chinese products are superior, you may wish to reconsider.

Replying to: clebo1 (Jul 13, 2009 12:45 pm) Why don't you go spread your garbage somewhere else. You bought a USED piece of junk that someone else abused and just because you don't know anything about buying a good used car we are all tired of listening to you cry over your own choosing. Go buy a Yugo and then you can go cry somewhere else.

Replying to: clebo1 (Jul 13, 2009 12:45 pm) You catch more bees with honey than using shit... No wonder GM dealers have you on the ignore list becarefull someone might tag you with legal papers if you continue this B.S.    Maybe all the other manufactures should be made aware of this guy so he will be tagged as an undesirable client and they wouldn't do business with him .    Maybe the HOST tidester will do something here        Replies to this message: clebo1 (Jul 22, 2009 1:34 pm)

Replying to: clebo1 (Jul 13, 2009 12:45 pm) PLEASE EXPLAIN ME WHY SHOULD ANYONE IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD BUY A CHEVY ESPECIALLY THIS ONE.   Considering that YOU bought one I'd think you would phrase that a little differently!   But seriously, typing in ALL CAPS tends to irritate people as you can see from some of the replies.   With respect to the problem you reported, ANY vehicle is subject to head gasket problems. I don't own a Chevy but I did recently have to pay for damage caused by exactly the same problem (yes, it's damned expensive!) but I wouldn't crucify the manufacturer over it. These things happen and used cars are probably a little more prone to these kinds of problems.   If your problem had occurred right after you bought the vehicle rather than four years after the fact, then you might have a case - but not against Chevrolet. The person who sold it to you would be the appropriate target. On the other hand, I have to ask, what exactly have you been doing with your NOX over that last four years? Surely, you had some clues that things weren't quite right?   In any case, good luck!   tidester, host SUVs and Smart Shopper Replies to this message: packer3 (Jul 14, 2009 3:55 pm) tidester (Jul 14, 2009 8:01 pm)

Replying to: tidester (Jul 13, 2009 8:08 pm) celebo is right no matter how you look at it. I posted my laundry list many times in this blog and I got the 05 Nox brand new thank God it was a lease. As far as the caps go you seem to miss the point in a way this person is venting and the problem with a blog is that you cant yell out loud. Replies to this message: tidester (Jul 14, 2009 8:01 pm)

Replying to: packer3 (Jul 14, 2009 3:55 pm) As far as the caps go you seem to miss the point...   We get the point but CAPS are best used sparingly to have the greatest impact. Writing in ALL CAPS, as I said, tends to irritate people and makes them less likely to help out. But that's neither here nor there. I only recommend not typing in ALL CAPS for the reasons I've stated.   In any case, I am totally sympathetic with people who are plagued with car problems. I've had enough experience with them myself to know it's not much fun.   tidester, host SUVs and Smart Shopper
#1428 of 1523 Chevy Equinox 2006 Noise between 72-75 mph by jnd1022 Jul 15, 2009 (1:30 pm)
Between 72 and 75 mph I hear a rattle or vibration. RPMs climb normally like in a passing gear. When I get to 76, RPM drop back to around 2000 and noise stops. When I slow down under 75 it starts again until the speed falls below 72. Anyone have any idea?   I took it to the dealer today. They said they cannot test the car above speed limit. Of course that did not sit well with me.   Thanks!
