We just received the same code P0013 and P0014 on our 17 equinox. Ended up replacing the VVT Camshaft Solenoid both the intake and exhaust and cleared the issue. Total cost was $100 and a 30min fix.

Buy new Vvt solenoids, is super easy to install, remove engine cover, unplug vvt, remove bolt holding vvt, vvt solenoid could be tight but will come out, I had to use channel lock and wiggle it, dented up the vvt but came out, install new vvt, put bolt back in, connected it again, done. Is as easy or easier to replace as a spark plug. Unrelated, but gm makes oil cap FC219 ac Delco, has pressure relief valve built in, if engine pressure builds will save your rear main seal from blowing out and is pretty common on these 2.4s, the GM cap is $7.60 on amazon. Well worth the extra insurance.
