(why didn't they check this when they were doing the head gasket if that was the case?) anyway i was back to the dealer by december due to the sound of air in the system after the heater core replacement. they found a leak between the tranny and the back of the block. they replaced the metal heater o-ring that was leaking. i never asked for any of the old parts from the dealer. i recently had the car to my mechanic (not the dealer) because of the smell of coolant in the cabin and the sound of water rushing/air in the system. he told me there is a tsb for hth problem and i would have to flush the system and change all the hoses. that was the end of march and i was saving $ for the job. this week my car overheated all the way to the red and when i checked the reservoir it was empty. i can't afford to replace or flush the coolant system every few months or year, especially when it is supposed to last much longer. if you have any advice on a remedy for the situation i would greatly appreciate it. i have had numerous other problems with this vehicle which i have not listed here. *tr.Mileage was 15113 miles.

Chevrolet Equinox 2005 Engine And Engine Cooling EngineChevrolet Equinox 2005 Engine And Engine Cooling Engine Review #10259590 CHEVROLET EQUINOX 2005 car safety problem was reported on Feb 02, 2008.CHEVROLET EQUINOX 2005, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE . in january, 2008, i started to notice an antifreeze odor whenever the weather warmed a little. on february 2, i stopped to get the care washed and while i was drying it off noticed steam coming from the front of the car, with a strong antifreeze odor. i drove the car directly to the nearest mechanic, one that i use exclusively for after-warranty repairs in my town. i was told the vehicle had what seemed to be a blown head gasket on initial examination, but they would let me know for sure after they were able to check it further. indeed it was what they thought, and it cost me $970 to repair. i asked them what could have caused such a thing in a 2005 chevy equinox that wasn't even 4 years old. i was told that chevrolet uses dex-cool orange coolant in this vehicle and it has been known to cause this type of problem. it has only been now,months later, that i have learned gm agreed to settle a class-action lawsuit tied to the engine coolant in vehicles beginning in 1995. i have obtained a copy of the paperwork for the class-action suit and am aware that the years involved are 1995 to 2003 for the group a vehicles with 3.1 liter or 3.4 liter v6 engines manufactured before 4/10/2003. i was not fortunate to belong within this group of cars who could be compensated, and missed the filing deadline of october 27, 2008. however, i am extremely upset that gm continued to use this coolant in a brand new model in 2005 knowing there had been serious problems for the same type engine for years of using it. i would really like to know if there is any way i can recoup the cost ot repairing my car during a time when i still owed almost 1 1/2 years payments before it was paid off. the local dealership salesman told me if i had owned a 2007 model it would still have been under warranty. that was a heartwarming thing to hear. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 77239 miles.

($1200) it is evident that this is a manufacturing defect because when i began to google 'drive shaft chevy', it gave me 2005 equinox as a suggestion. the year was specific in the problem. *tr .Mileage was 50000 miles.

"jordan" still has me on hold (over 20 minutes now) for a supervisor (which i requested - twice) because he infomed me they know of no way to open the door manually when the electric is involved. in fact, he said their "senior" repairman said he had never heard a thing like that happening to anyone before. "jordan" kept telling me to ask the dealership or the napa service center where my car is now of a way to escape the car. i kept telling him i had already talked with the dealership and their repairman told me it could happen the way it did to me, it is dangerous, and he knew of no way to open the door with it being already locked when the electric no longer works. i was extremely lucky, if it is the electric, the car did not catch on fire. i want chevrolet to make sure there is an escape out of the car when there is an electrical failure..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 30036 miles.
