#16 of 20 My Equinox by darb2

I just purchased a 2010 AWD V6 LTZ I enjoy the way it handles very quite. My first problem that scared me was the automatic transmission, the drive gear does not hold the vehicle in place when on sloped ground. As soon you take your foot off the brake the car begins to roll backwards faster and faster I find this to be very dangerous and should be recalled. I would sugust if you own one you should find a slight hill and try to let your transmission hold you in place or like mine it will take off too.

Hello Darb2,
Have you taken the vehicle back to the dealership and explained the concern? Or have them come to your house to have them see what is going on? Thank you,

#19 of 20 EQUINOX CROSSWIND ISSUES by jlpetzold

Dec 22, 2012 (10:25 pm)

I recently pruchased a 2007 Equinox. Decent car, lousy design on the cockpit but I see Chevy fixed this later. My big problem is stability on the highway in wind or when being passed by a truck or bus. This thing is worse than my old 82 rv in a crosswind. A bus passing at 70 gives you that "RIGHT TURN CLYDE" thing going on. Anyone seen this or could I have a tire/alignment issue. Car has 70k & new tires when I bought it.

#1 Has it every been in a wreck #2 You could have a bad tire even though there new. You have no idea were the tire came from. You can still buy cheap made tires. #3 You could need an alignment. We have 2012 Equinox no such issues it handles to good for what it is. Alot of saftey built in. Odds are its bad news probley #1 or #2
