Good to know you are getting it finally fixed. The GM reps. are much improved over the past few years in listening to GM customers. Not sure about your dealer though.

Yes, it's a common problem on the early Equinox models. It is not covered on the factory warranty as it has to be a hole . However GM factory reps know of the problem and have fixed many in our area. The doors were crimped not welded at the bottom seams and rust starts usually within a year if...

Michelin tire recall For those of you that are having the tire separation and sidewall perforation and have not replaced your Latitude Tour tires yet this may help. Go to the NHTSA site and many Michelin Latitude tires P255/70R18, P255/60R19 and others have been recalled. You'll have to check...

Update 2010 fuel consumption Yes, same color and all . Just came back from a trip through ND,MN,WI,MI and then into Ontario. No problems at all on trip but lots of bugs and road work tar so took about 3 hours to clean up today. Interesting the speed limit on the northern roads near border is...

Update on felt fabric removal front fenders Hadn't heard back from anyone on the issue so removed the felt fabric from the passenger front fender area behind the door hinges. Only did one side to see how it worked out. We took the Equinox to the lake on dusty gravel roads and no noticeable...

Lumbar Thanks Brian, information on the lumbar was great, as mentioned saved us a lot of $, glad to see your nox is working out well, we had one of the very early models which we had ordered in, even before they were in the dealers for a test drive so none of the bugs had been worked out...

Hi, was reading through posts on rust areas on the newer 2010+ Equinox and noticed a comment from Mike - northcreek. Checked out the fabric material on ours that is in the front fenders just behind the hinges and like Mike stated it was wet, full of mud, leaves and salt. Have washed out for now...

Hi, was looking at your pictures and must admit Michelin Latitude Touring we had on our 2010 looked about the same when we got rid of them. Had about 50,000 on them, still tread but all cracked where the tread met the sidewall. Didn't bother with Michelin, replaced with Cooper CS4 Touring, so...

This is a pretty common problem which GM knows about. Our 2010 had the same thing after a year. We saw our dealer who contacted the factory rep as we were off the bumper to bumper warranty. They fixed at no charge to us. The problem for rusting was the seams were crimped but not welded. The...

Hi, haven't been on site for awhile so will give an update on the Equinox. Engine replacement by GM now has 24,000 Km's on it and is running great, no oil consumption and stays clean. Using Dexos and changing at 5000 - 6000 Km, oil monitor was updated but still reads around 35% with this...

It depends on what kind of weather you have to drive in, we drive in both the snow in Canada and the heat in AZ. and everything else in between.Have a 2010 which came with 235/55-18" Michelin Latitude Tour all season on it. Were pretty good in both situations but became pretty noisy around...

Not to good at this site yet, but will try again to post this about the rust problems. Have a 2010 that I noticed rust on the rear hatch after about 9 months and on the bottom of the doors in about 2 years. Remembered this site so looked up and decided to go back to dealer and see what they...

Hi also have a 2010, 2.4 L4 engine, it was an early unit and had both the bad timing chain and cylinders. I had my dealer do the oil consumption test and since it needed the chain and burned about a qt. every 800 miles they contacted the GM factory rep. and replaced the motor. It comes from...

Hi also have a 2010 Equinox LTZ, which we just broke the driver side lumbar on it, have 81,000 miles on it and heard a pop while driving down to Az. Called a few dealerships and they wanted $300 - $460 to fix, went to a car upholstery shop and they took apart the back of the seat and it also...
