    OEM Wireless Charging

    I drive a 2022 Equinox LT. Has anybody successfully retrofitted their Gen 3 equinox with an OEM wireless charging pad? I was looking at some aftermarket options, but a lot of those use the 12v port to use as a power source for the pad and I didn't want to constantly have that port in use...

    A/C Compressor

    I'm hoping my situation is just an anomaly. Apart from this, the car is great. Good luck!

    A/C Compressor

    I know, I don't think I've ever had a car where the compressor failed on me. I'm well beyond the warranty period, but I'm still going to contact Chevrolet just to get it on record. It's not right that I have to put so much money into a car.

    A/C Compressor

    I drive a 2022 Equinox LT with approx 50k miles. Has anybody had any issues with their A/C compressor? Mine recently failed. I previously owned a 2012 Equinox LS that had just shy of 200k miles when I got rid of it, but never had any A/C problems. I thought it was odd that the compressor...

    Transmission Care

    Thanks. I think it's odd that there's no maintenance schedule for that. I put about 20k miles per year on my car, so I'm probably good for a change every year. If you don't mind me asking, how much does it cost to change yours? The dealer quoted me a ridiculous price (anywhere from $650 to...

    Climate Control Question

    It's just a redundant app that gives you climate control options on the infotainment screen, it doesn't have any features that aren't available on the center stack. I'm just curious as to why some cars have it and some don't. So far it seems it's just the equinox and the Trax (before it's...

    Transmission Care

    Does anybody regularly flush their transmission fluid? I drive a 2022 LT and have no problems so far, but I'd like to stay ahead of any potential issues. I previously drove a 2012 LS and wound up spending over $4k after I had the car for 6 years due to transmission issues. There's no schedule...

    Climate Control Question

    Just a cosmetic question. Does anybody know why the Equinox does not have a 'Climate' app for the infotainment system? The Trailblazer has one and the Traverse has one. It seems odd that the Equinox would be skipped. Driving a 2022 LT
