I'm having problems with jerking and bucking of my vehicle. It has been to the repair shop and a tune-up was advised. I had the tune up...the problem has continued..... This car has had problem after problem: wheels, air bag, window, radio,. I bought it with approximately 18,500 miles and now it has 43,000. I still owe payments, and seemingly monthly costly repairs along with it. I'm headed back to the shop, and see what they recommend now.....what can I do...Oh by the I have a worthless Caremaxx Extended Warranty...They come up with all the problems that can't be fixed under the warranty before they address the real problem....disgusted

Throttle body problems at 51, 000 miles. Parts aren't readily available when a problem is discovered.

#1669 of 1675 2007 Equinox....RPM Reads 4500 and engine off by ddot519

It seems my Tach is not working. It sits at 4500 when engine is turned off. Is this the instrument cluster bad or is there something else that would be wrong.

#1670 of 1675 2008 Equinox temp gauge and more by bestmommy

Feb 26, 2013 (6:32 pm)

The temp gauge on my 08 Equinox is facing the fuel gauge. It overheated last year on me without warning. I had the thermostat changed and the sensor and a year later, it's still the same. The check engine light is not on but I'm concerned that it will overheat again without warning. I travel to PA from VA often. Took it to dealership and basically they had no idea why this happened and quoted me $1700 to fix "other" issues. Another problem, it has hesitation when accelerating. This has been happening for the past year also. Also, the headlights have moisture in them causing the truck to fail state inspection and Chevy tried to charge me $800+ a piece to replace them. Called the District Manager and was told basically it's my problem. I'm so frustrated with this car. When it rains it smells like mildew, like water is getting in some how. I've only owned Chevy made vehicles but after this, I'm done.

I am actually having the same issue with mine I just bought, I was looking online and I seen that someone said that it was a recall on the vehicle, I called my local dealership and they looked up the recall and are going to fix the car for free, You may need to call yours to get yours looked at as well hope this helps.
