Have had an issue with a sensor on the rear passenger side of the car more than once. Also when this happens the stabilitrak will not work properly. Which when this happens in the winter it is a big problem because not having all wheel drive in Michigan is not very safe.

It is a 2012 equinox. I have never had a problem and it has amazing gas mileage.
I currently own a Chevrolet equinox. I absolutely love it, although it is a 2012 it is never had an issue. It is only has 42,000 miles on it and gets 32 to the gallon. Which in my opinion is an amazing nowadays. It is not too small but it is not too big either. It is my first car and it is super reliable and very affordable on gas. I wouldn't want another car to be my first.

Mediocre car but rides alright.
It broke down within the first year and had to get the entire engine replaced (luckily, it was under warranty). It rides fine and is an okay car but I wouldn’t buy it again. It makes some funny noises when you accelerate. It is definitely more of a gas guzzler. Go for a smaller car.
Michael T
on June 17, 2021
Reliable and comfortable for even the longest drive.
It is a comfortable drive. It was very reliable this summer as I used it for a job that involved driving up to 100 miles a day and having the engine on for a majority of a typical work day. Only thing I do not like is turn radius and non-highest mileage.

Great car with lots of space!
The Chevrolet equinox is a great car. It is comfortable and very reliable. It is pretty spacious and has lots room in the trunk. I am impressed with the rear camera and the room in the middle console. I love how the menu is on the dashboard and the XM radio option. Comfortable seats with motorized adjustment options.

Chevy equinox. Good family vehicle. Comfortable with good storage utility.
No real problems. Performs well. I can do quite a bit of shopping with storage in the back. Decent gas mileage but not exceptional. Does burn a little extra oil. Sirius satellite radio is terrific and sound good in this vehicle. Comfortable on long drives.
Shamonda W
on June 11, 2021
Heated seats and multi plug outlet.
Very easy to work on myself and that is saying a lot since I am a female with youtube. The only issues I have had in the last four years the ac is going out I think. Very efficient on gas never take the economy option off. It takes about 25:30 to fill it up. Sunroof would but perfect but they still love it and the heated seat ??.

It has multiple ways to charge your phone.
My equinox was great the first 2 years that I owned it. However, now, it has problems shifting gears, eating the oil, and wears through breaks frequently. I love the fact that the back seats lay down, I can lock the windows, and it has the aux cord ability to listen to music.
Crissy G
on June 7, 2021
An equinox repeat buyer here!
I think it is the perfect size and has been reliable for many years. I think even have the years have passed the models have stayed the same so it does not age. At this time out is 8 years old a I have never had even a recall on it that I can remember that I needed.
Krista G

Smooth riding Chevy equinox.
I love it. I bought it used and it is in excellent condition. It rides so smooth. The gas mileage is great. Perfect family car. I love the way it drives. A lot of space in the backseat. Satellite radio and I can hook my phone up to the car. Great power and engine.
Jeannette M
on June 2, 2021
It is reliable and affordable.
I love it because it is still newish and reliable and fast I really recommend this car because the price is good and you get what you pay for. There are also a variety of different kinds/types of colors to pick from. The brand is really good. The car also has a camera so you can see when your pulling out of the driveway.

Test it out carefully, reliable with pros and cons.
The car is reliable and smooth to drive. It does have some bad performance such as it makes a weird lousy noise. It has been checked by multiple mechanics and say it's nothing. Also, as I was reversing it stopped on me twice. I do love the feeling of the smooth ride but as any car it does have pros and cons. If deciding to purchase the Chevrolet equinox make sure you test it out fairly the first couple months.
Jennifer B

2012 Chevy equinox: buyer beware.
Since I got my care I have had nothing but transmission issues with it. I have also had electrical issues. There are constantly issues with tire sensors, engine lights, and the driver side window going up and down. My son gets sick frequently when taking longer car drives because he swears there are fumes in the back seat that cause him to feel sick.
Grace R
on May 26, 2021
Good, reliable vehicle, great on gas, economical.
Great on gas, no major repairs needed, drive approximately 9000 miles a year. Perfect size for family of four. Comfortable for a basic, no frills vehicle. I would like it if there was rear air conditioning and motorized seat movements. Newer models have Wi-Fi capabilities which I wish I could install on this model.
angela K
on May 25, 2021
The car is always reliable, rides smoothly and maintenance is easy.
The tires are always low and the check engine light always comes on even if everything is fine. The performance is great and the car is very reliable. The car is comfortable and spacious. And for features the car came with on star, which is great feature.
Katie D
on May 24, 2021
Ok for medium priced vehicle.
Problems with oil consumption. Only front wheel drive with poor traction in inclement weather. Basically comfortable. Rear area holds a lot of stuff with rear seats down. Radio is lousy. Gas mileage is average. Fine for around town but seat is not very comfortable on long trips.
Nicole L
on May 18, 2021
Equinox provides all the space I need for reasonable money.
I had problems with the transmission after a plastic part broke and pieces got into the inner areas a few years ago but a transmission flush and regular oil changes have helped tremendously. Otherwise it has run very well. The back seat fits my 2 teens and their little sister when another adult joins me in the front. The kids like heated seats and a good stereo that let's them plug in their devices to play music. It is also a nice- looking car that has not cost me a lot of money to keep up.
Sam G
on May 13, 2021
Equinox is great (but maybe avoid the 2012)!
Overall I really love my equinox! It makes long car trips with the family (including the dog) super easy and comfortable. The gas mileage is on par with most midsize SUVs, so not horrible (but not overly fantastic either). The particular year that I have (2012) has a manufacturing issue, which caused some costly issues before we found out about gm covering the costs. Other than that, we have had no issues in terms of reliability, performance or comfort!
Sarah W
on May 9, 2021
My Chevy equinox has been good to me for the last 6 years.
Had an issue with oil consumption. Other than that I really did not have any issues with this vehicle. It has done its job, and now in this point in time I am just waiting to be financially able to upgrade because it is just a tad bit too small for my 2 children.
Chloe B
on May 7, 2021
It is a comfy car, without being too small or big. I enjoy the space and height.
My car is partially reliable. It has a rapid oil consumption issue, which means I need to frequently check my oil. It stalls often in reverse and drive. The rpms stay high after 65 and during acceleration. The mpg is lower than advertised. There are no heated seats. I cannot Bluetooth music through my vehicle.
Daniel S
on May 6, 2021
The high point of our car is the backup camera, that is a lifesaver.
My equinox is a classy autobombile, I am proud to drive even though it is almost nine years old. It runs like a new car we take it in for regular oil changes and tire rotations etc. A car will run well and be dependable if it get regular maintenance. This car is the best car we have ever bought. We figure we will get a good price at trade in time.
Christina P
on May 6, 2021
My car works great in all weathers its great in the rain, snow and heat.
I love my Chevy equinox- it drives smooth and the engine is quiet. Great to drive my 3 month old around to fall asleep. The only issue I have had with it so far is the oil. Currently I have a test running on it to see if it's using more oil than it needs to.. Other than that it works very well for what I need it for.
Jaimee B
on May 3, 2021
Really like the vehicle and the way it drives.
Very roomie. No major problems with the car so far, but service engine light has started coming on and turning off sporadically. Only front wheel drive. Does not have any of the luxuries with it: heated seats or remote start. Bluetooth for connecting phone to take calls is super nice.
Sterling K
on May 2, 2021
Spacious, family vehicle but not a van.
I have had no issues with this vehicle. The vehicle is very roomy with lots of space. We travel often and it has more than enough room for all our luggage. The power is very good for the size motor it has. Getting on the interstate and getting up to speed is done with no issues or hesitation.
Andrew M
on April 28, 2021
A great all-around vehicle.
I have driven this car for over 8 years and I have only ever had one problem with the battery. It is very comfortable with plenty of room. I have driven this car cross country twice and there have been no issues. Cruise control is really easy to use and most of the other features are not hard to figure out.
Dina K
on April 24, 2021
My vehicle has a lot the interior as well as the color which and.
Vehicle burns a lot of oil. 2.4 engine is terrible. Transmission can get bad. How its reliable if I make oil changes on time. My engine was destroyed due to lot of oil being burned in a short time. I had to replace my car engine. There is also ac issue. Car does not blow chilled air even after I changed the evaporator, condenser and hose.
Francis E
on April 21, 2021
It is a very reliable vehicle.
Very dependable and very reliable, it takes everywhere. It is very comfortable to drive, it has a back up camera and also has a very good gas mileage. We love to travel on road trips with it and it easy and affordable to maintain. It is does not depreciate that fast so we can still get a good deal on it.
Emily S
on April 16, 2021
2012 Chevrolet equinox highlights.
If you are looking for an affordable reliable mid size SUV you cannot go wrong with the equinox. My only complaints are I wish there was a little more space and legroom in the back seat. My car does have several lights that have came on in the past 6 months like the check engine light and service tire sensor. You really have to be on top of oil changes or you will start having issues because it burns through oil quick.
Celina
on April 8, 2021
Suggestions?
So I’ve seen a lot of comments everywhere about the transmission, stalling , shifting like shi, and the engine light and nothing helping ect. I had the same issues. So far we’ve changed the timing belt, Both cylenliod sensors twice , cam shaft actuator , and phaser. This last time it was the tensioner , two valves and a head gasket. I bought the car used from a shop and this started within a MONTH of buying it, thankfully this has all been covered. Just got it back today seems to be running nice now. We’ll see for how long.It’s unfortunate this car has so many issues it seems. I really do love everything else about it
Celina
on April 8, 2021
Suggestions?
When braking it would be as if I would be pressing on and off. When I wasn’t. But this was also a related issue. Also , when it comes to the stalling. I found it helped it you pressed a little harder on the gas when taking off from a stop.
Jake
on April 8, 2021
Buyers warning
Would never recommend this c**p car so many problems I can’t count have the oil changed regularly had the piston rings replaced at 105k miles has 160k on it now more things are wrong with it than right with it if you are looking to get an equinox do yourself a favor and don’t. It’s cheap for a reason and if you don’t listen you’ll know what I’m talking about in a couple months or years if you’re lucky
Devin M
on April 5, 2021
Very comfortable with lots of features.
The seats are very comfortable. I love the lumbar support. Also it drives smoothly. The speakers are a bit crackly, and the cupholders are too small. There is tons of storage space in the center console. I would like USB ports on the front dash rather than in the center console for ease of use. Dual temperature ac would be nice too as I like it cold but my partner likes it slightly warmer.
Dawn P
on April 2, 2021
Not my first pick maybe it will be yours.
It is cheaply made. I do not think that I would ever again purchase this make and model of vehicle. For the money, I could have bought a higher quality vehicle built the way that vehicles used to be built. However the interior of the vehicle is still holding up nicely. Without much upkeep on my end.
Carla J

Chevrolet Equinox is a compact SUV with a lot of space.
I have an Equinox and l really have not any issues with my Equinox. Extremely good on gas. Its has leg room in front and the back seat. In the drivers passenger side l can massage my lower back. Meaning the lower back can adjust to how you want it to feel close up or not. The trunk has a lot of room. It can fix 4 extra large suitcases and my bulky wheelchair.
Liz W

Good daily driver and all wheel drive is great in the winter months.
Reliable daily driver. Comfortable for myself and my husband. Has plenty of room for my two children and for our yellow lab to ride in the back also. All wheel drive is great during the winter months. Bluetooth does not always work with my phone and have issues with people hearing me clearly.
Karen S

Laura L

The value of a solid design.
I love everything about this vehicle. The controls are located in a logical place. The interior is a simple design that is comfortable and easy to keep clean. The same can be said for the exterior as well. The equinox has plenty of the bells and whistles without the complexities or higher priced models.
Amanda G

I love that my car has Bluetooth, so I don't have to focus or look at the screen
My vehicle drives very smooth and I don't have much to complain about it. It's very comfortable and easy to get around. Not bad on gas and I couldn't ask for a better vehicle. It has a touchscreen, Bluetooth and the ability to play music from my phone. My car is not too big but still has enough room where I don't feel cramped.
Coral W

It is a small SUV that has good gas mileage but poor sightlines.
I like the gas mileage and it drives smoothly. I do not like that it feels small on the inside. The windows are small and it feels cramped. There are not good sightlines.
Jeff C

2012 equinox is it reliable?
I bought it used, not many problems with it over the year I have had it. The only thing I have had issues with it my check engine coming on when the gas cap was screwed on, took it too firestone it was a problem with a fuse, other than that I would say this is a great reliable car. I love it.
Lisa D
on March 28, 2021
It is a great vehicle for work or personal life.
The car keeps turning off while I am driving it. Several of the icons on the lighting panel never go off. I have trouble with the Bluetooth option, my phone will not always be in sync with the panel. It is very comfortable and a pretty car. I would but it again in the future if the mechanical problems were not an issue any longer.
Lori S

Economical Chevy Equinox-gets good gas mileage.
It gets good gas mileage. It is economical. It is comfortable and good for our size of family. It gets around well in the snowy winter weather. The seat covers are very durable and wear very well. I like that it has cruise control and a CD player, and an AUX cord port.
Emily R
on March 27, 2021
The comfortable and user friendly Chevy equinox.
This car drives well and is super user friendly. I have also enjoyed the size of it, as I feel safe but do not have trouble parking or fitting into tight roads. Sometimes the Bluetooth or other features can glitch, but it is always quickly resolved. No major issues!
Enrique S
on March 26, 2021
Small, sweet, easy to use.
The car is a smooth ride and pretty gas efficient. Plenty of space for storage and comfortable seats. Easy to maintain and the user friendly manual is easy to read. The car isn't all too powerful but can pick up and lose speed easily. Overall for an older used car it's a great buy.

Backup camera is the best feature and the heated seats.
This vehicle waste to much gas. Other than that it is a good car I love how spacious the car is it is almost so big my kids car seat has extra space I also love how spacious the truck is and how modern the car is even though it is a 2012. It had a back up camera and all.
Brianna C
on March 22, 2021
Affordable, stylish, comfortable SUV.
Attractive SUV with comfortable cloth seats. It has a cute sunroof. Vehicle drives smooth. Amazing on gas! Cheap and affordable while still having the style of SUV that I like which is a slight boxy body. It is known for camshaft position sensor issues but this issue is a cheap fix so no worries with that. I only had to change my sensor once around 101,000 miles. Other than that great vehicle.
Lisa S
on March 22, 2021
What I like about my equinox.
I love my Chevy equinox, it has excellent gas mileage and it can haul quite a bit of stuff. It is very comfortable to travel in also! I have problems with the air compressor, that just went out on it. Had new tires put on it and oil change. This has truly been one of my favorite vehicle.
Mohamed N
on March 22, 2021
A very reliable vehicle for everyday use.
The car is that reliable and do the regular serves on it. I have enough space ether in the front or in the back and it has all the features that I need to be in the vehicle. I had the vehicle for a long time never had a problem with it so far oil change etc.
Richard F
on March 21, 2021
Chevy equinox-dependability!!
I have had very few issues aside from brakes and yearly maintenance. Good not great gas mileage. The car has been reliable on long trips and has a lot of room for luggage and food. There is a lot of legroom in the front of the vehicle. It is a little bumpy in the back seat when driving on the highway.

Junk
Biggest piece of junk I have ever owned, had it 2 years replaced wheel hub assembly,tensioner pulley,battery. Rockers,frame and bottoms of the doors were all rotted so bad wouldn't pass inspection. 7 years old have to take it to the junkyard.GM will never get another penny from me. Went and bought Nissan rogue.
Angelo W

The essence of 2012 with a 2020 driver.
I recently bought a silver 2012 Chevrolet equinox with leather interior in July. I absolutely enjoy driving the SUV, she’s great on miles, repair cost, and a half of tank can last about 4 days. I would go weeks at a time with not having to put gas in the tank. Highly efficient. One thing I would have to say is there’s no Bluetooth to play music besides plugging your phone into the dock to play the music. Overall I would recommend the SUV to a family, traveling business.
Grace K
on March 17, 2021
High quality look with a low quality value.
The car shakes and will idle and then dies on its own. The muffler makes a large amount of noise and then you cannot always count on the gas mileage. The remote start stopped working and then the seat adjustments on the driver side also stopped working.
Michael b
on March 16, 2021
It is very reliable and as long as you keep up with the basic maintenance, it doesn't give you any problems
It is very reliable and it needs little maintenance. It rides smoothly and it can haul a pretty good size load.
Katie H

It's a smooth ride and comfortable. It has great features but isn't too fancy.
It's an easy ride. However, it has had recall issues with oil, because of the engine problems, I probably wouldn't buy another.
Jennicer G

Driving a car when it gets older.
It's getting older so things happen but when I first purchased it was. Good. It drove well and it was a quiet start it was leather interior and seating was comfortable and had room for legs if you were tall. The stop was very strong and accelerated fast.
Matthew H

Equinox is a reliable and comfortable vehicle to own.
Equinox is a great vehicle. Roomy inside, large rear space. Drives well in snow and rain. Rear seat is large to comfortably seat 3 people. Good amount of leg space in the front and rear seats. Driver controls are well placed and easily accessible. Runs well with regular maintenance.
Chiquita W
on March 11, 2021
My vehicle is very fuel efficient and does not take much to get far.
The vehicle has given me a lot of electrical problems due to recent recalls but is very reliable. It is a smooth drive which is important to me and haven't had any problems outside of that. It is very spacious and flex fuel which actually saves a little on gas. It is really gas efficient and does not take much to fill.
Tamara D
on March 11, 2021
Sporty with safety and comfort in mind.
The Chevrolet Equinox is a great choice. It packs a punch with style. It is sporty and comfortable to drive and ride in and has all the features that you want in a family car. It has decent gas mileage. And, it has plenty of safety features.
Ashtyn P
on March 10, 2021
Amazing, family friendly equinox.
The car is extremely spacious, very reliable, and the fact it is AWD is awesome for winter in Ohio. It is the perfect family car. I like the back window wipers and defrosters as well. My family also enjoys the sound system in the car and how quick the car will cool or heat up.
A M
on March 7, 2021
Stylish, versatile, capable and complete.
My experience with my car has been very positive. Normal expected wear and tear. Still drives and handles like new. Not too large, not too small. All wheel drive is a+ in the elements. OnStar and features a+. Plenty of room for me(6'1'). Very stylish inside and out.
Joshua D
on March 6, 2021
Come aboard the simplicity voyager.
I absolutely love the fuel mileage because I tend to drive a lot. I am not crazy about the crossover or minivan kind of look but it's comfortable for loading up the whole crew and getting out of town. It is very user friendly, and is very easy to drive and sort of basic as far as performance. It's great for loading up the family and taking off for a couple of days but it gets great fuel mileage and maintenance is a total breeze. It does not have performance components that you may need to test or tune. It's very simple when I need to simplify.
Nancy A

All wheel drive in the state I live in.
Rebuilt engine, reliable, fun to drive, good gas mileage, very comfortable, love the color, fold down back seat allows me to haul my animals around. Back camera allows me to keep me from backing into someone. I love the all wheel drive in the winter in the state I live in.

on March 4, 2021
Great, comfortable family car.
Drives really good & smooth. Car is very reliable & haven't had problems with the car, just the typical service needs. The back seat is very roomy, so tall people would be okay with the leg room. The back up camera is a really nice feature to check the back surroundings.
Monic G
on March 2, 2021
Overall great vehicle and has lasted me now 6 plus years
I like my vehicle, however, it has always ran odd from the beginning. The shift mode would drag and last for a while before changing gears when picking up speed. It hasn't ever caused me problems so I didn't take it in to look at. It took a while before something major happened, and by a while I mean 5+ years of ownership so I guess that's good.
Sara H
on February 28, 2021
Sirius XM, OnStar, and Eco Mode are fantastic features to this car
I love my Chevy Equinox. It has an 'eco' mode which helps save on gas which is incredibly helpful. It feels like a safe drive and is convenient for me to take my baby with me everywhere I go Sirius XM is a must for me and OnStar has been incredibly helpful as well.
Katie M
on February 28, 2021
That it's very reliable and has yet to break down or need any maintenance with exception of oil changes and such
I like that it has remote start. That was the selling point. I love the spacious back and front seat and it is very reliable. I would like to have heated seats next time
Karina O

Tracy Y

More space and convenience needed.
I think my vehicle is of high enough acceptance and quality. My family has double in size and I must find a vehicle with more seating and cargo room. I would like more surround control of heat and air, speakers, and if possible cup holders.
Maximus J
on February 24, 2021
A fabulous car that is versatile and will work for any family.
Inconsistent gas mileage, need frequent oil changes, overall a really great car. Very roomy inside and out. For the year, it is very technologically advanced. Great radio, wish it had Bluetooth. Drives like a beautiful car. Steering is great and the overall experience is wonderful.
Robert W
on February 23, 2021
Overall a dependable and satisfying vehicle.
Overall the Chevrolet equinox is a dependable and durable car. No major work has needed to be done on now flat 90 thousand miles. Overall comfort of the vehicle is nice and technologically speaking for the year and price it is very nicely equipped with a range of amenities. The engine is the 2.4 liter 4 cylinder ecoboost which is a tad weak and I would not suggest it for towing. The all wheel drive is very nice and dependable.
Addisyn Y
on February 22, 2021
Costly non-routine maintenance.
The cosmetic part of the vehicle is great. I love the heated seats and the leather. I would like if it had Bluetooth music capabilities. The maintenance however is terrible. It is not just routine maintenance it is components do not last as long as they say they will.
Chrissy W
on February 22, 2021
Vehicle that is made for your typical family!
Fits our family of 4 very comfortably. Always has good gas mileage, has taken only basic upkeep tires oil brakes etc. Would take this vehicle on a long trip and have plenty of packing room. I would consider buying a new one once our family is ready to give this one up.

Love my equinox because it has all the features you need.
Comfortable, easy to drive. Sufficiently sized for my needs very reliable. Average gas mileage,sufficient size for my needs and family size, lots of cargo space, versatile, can carry large loads for home projects, smooth ride sits up high enough to not feel uncomfortable in tragic.

Be very careful turning right, the front window area is so large it's hard to see the curbs and anything up on the sidewalks. With a backup camera, some cars/SUVs show right turns on the screen.
It's an Equinox that has plenty of room for two people. The gas mileage is respectable and the ride is smooth. It doesn't have a back-up camera and I would love to have one for safety reasons. Other than that it's a good car!!!
Chris S
on February 19, 2021
Drives well, good pick up, the gas mileage is very good.
I got my car in the spring March of 2018. It works very good on gas mileage and also drives well. But last month my timing belt snapped and had to get it replaced the warranty covered it. But the muffler still had problems and I still need to get it installed.
Tiff V

Best vehicle purchase ever!
This vehicle is very reliable. I absolutely love it! It is the perfect size for me. It is great on gas and easy to maintain. It is very comfortable and affordable. I would buy another one in a heartbeat! That is how much I love this vehicle. It is an excellent family vehicle.
Caleb B
on February 18, 2021
One of the best SUV's for small family road trips.
I do not like the turn radius, and it also has no rear air. But other than these things I love my car! With automatic back hatch, the speak design and quiet driving makes it an excellent vehicle for toddlers trying to get a nap. It does not ride super smoothly and it is not a speed machine, you have to take it slow and steady with this fellow. The design and comfort of the car is amazing.
Laura F
on February 18, 2021
The SUV has outlet plugs for electrical devices for long trips.
My SUV is very roomy for my two teenagers and 3 dogs.(2 Italian mastiffs and a 75 lb mutt.) Even my 6'3 boyfriend is comfy. I enjoy the controls on the steering wheel. I also like all the safety precautions included. I feel that my family is safe in this vehicle.
Michael W
on February 18, 2021
The vehicle is pretty fast. It has tire pressure readouts, and electric miles
Performance and gas mileage are awesome! Windshield wipers quit working, factory flaw. Love the vehicle. The car has a lot of comfort features, heated mirrors, electric seats, Bluetooth, lumbar back support. The car is spacious, large seats and trunk area - I haven't had any major problems with the vehicle at all.

It is the perfect size. Great gas mileage. It is a very pretty color. Very smooth driving with a lot of pep for a 4 cylinder. The only thing I wish I had in it is a sunroof.

Dependable great looks, good gas mileage.
Great gas mileage, motor does not have a lot of get up and go. Lacks power. Right size, lot of space, biggest back seat, plenty of legroom. The ease of getting in and out. We like the cargo large space, have carried large loads of everything from lawn waste to construction material.

Chevrolet Equinox: Functional and Affordable
The vehicle is a 4 cylinder so it does not have very much power but on the plus side allows for very good gas mileage for a small SUV. The interior is simple but very functional. The exterior has a sporty look which I like. I would recommend this vehicle due to its affordability, function, gas mileage and storage.

Roomy and very gas efficient.
Comfortable and roomy seating. We love the large screen for the radio and rear camera visual. It is a touch screen and that has been really convenient. Trunk is huge with little storage areas on either side that have really come in handy. For and SUV it gets good mileage, at least in our experience.

Chevy equinox, a great family car!
I never had a vehicle that was AWD. After getting my 2012 Chevy Equinox AWD I will never go back to not having an AWD vehicle. I feel safe in my vehicle. I love that I have a backup camera and satellite radio. It provides plenty of room for me and my family especially when it comes to traveling to and from sports and activities. I love that it has hands free calling which makes it easy to concentrate on my driving. I truly enjoy my Chevy Equinox.

2012 Chevy equinox - a great car for the price.
My equinox does everything that I would want or need it to. It drives well and has enough space to carry any groceries and passengers that I would need it to. Even when I am buying wood for home repairs I can put down a seat and even with a couple of passengers, transport it easily. I have to do maintenance fairly often but with the car 8 years old and almost 200,000 miles, that is to be expected. The only downside is that there are not many features, but for most people it will get the job done and do it well.

The Chevy equinox, a great vehicle for your family.
The only problems we have had with this car is some electrical issues with the power front seat but all that needs is a few new fuses. Then car runs great for being an older model, it is comfortable and we feel safe driving it. I would look into getting the same model again but a newer version.

A few issues, but nothing too difficult to fix.
I have had a few issues with tire pressure sensors and currently have an issue with a bad exhaust manifold. The gas mileage is not bad and there are plenty of comfort controls. I have put about 10,000 miles on it since I bought it and it has not let me down yet.

This is the best car I've ever owned.
I love the Equinox. It is roomy enough for my son's bulky car seat, while allowing plenty more backseat space for other passengers or larger items. It's not bad on gas for an SUV. I feel that it's the perfect size for my family. I don't like driving big cars/SUVs, but I also like being up higher than a small car. I would absolutely buy another Equinox in the future.

Great SUV with very little problems.
Very few problems outside of a recalled part that was replaced quickly and at no cost to me. The sun is comfortable and feels safe. Handles well, even in bad weather. It has been pretty low maintenance for me. It has plenty of space for passengers - does not feel cramped. There is also a lot of space in the trunk for carrying/moving things.

Equinox an nice inexpensive SUV.
The equinox is a very reliable vehicle. It is very economical and has a lot of room in its trunk. It is a very smooth vehicle and requires very little maintenance. We use the mid car when we go on vacations and it gets good gas mileage. I have had very few repairs and it has been very cost effective.

Perfect SUV for the mom on the go!
My car is the perfect size. It is not a huge SUV, but it is. Got the perfect amount of trunk space. I love the touch screen, back up camera, and even the blind spot mirrors. It is also got great room in the back seat for my son. It has held up over the years and still drives pretty well for it is age.

Overall I like it, but I do not see myself buying another one.
On highway, sometimes difficult to increase speed, oil burns quickly, I have had problems with engine, specifically with plugs connected to the engine. Comfortable interior, safe car, nice design. Mine has touch screen and rear cam. Very large trunk space even without putting seats down.

I love the backup camera.
This is our 2nd equinox. We bought our first one new, in 2005, and had it 10 years. It was a great car. The 2012, tho, is not quite as great. We have had brake problems for several years. The rotors keep going bad. And the sunroof does not close all the way. Other than that, I love it. We will not buy a new one, tho. My husband has driven one and it is way smaller inside.

A very awesome car. Even tho it is a Chevy.
Rear camera does not work all time. Gets good gas mileage even with 175,000 miles on it. Interior is tough due to having grandkids. No mechanical issues as of yet. Drive all over the states. I would buy another one. Good heat and air. Not done alot to this car.
