What owners wrote
Tl*the contact owns a 2007 chevrolet equinox. Ever since the vehicle was purchased, the contact heard a ticking sound in the engine compartment. He stated that the vehicle had poor fuel mileage. The contact also had to jump from the vehicle because the serpentine belt caught a wire that was not in a wiring harness as it should have been. The contact also experienced stabilatrac failure on two separate occasions, which caused the power steering to fail.
Light came on in car stating: engine hot/compressor off and temp gauge dropped to bottom. I took to dealership and was informed me that I had leaking head gaskets into coolant. Heads to machine shop to check and pressure test. $2262.00.
