| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I purchased my 2005 chevy equinox on aug. 22, 2005 and instantly fell in love. soon after it began to smell as if my vehicle was going to over heat. i took the vehicle to the dealer to have it check out and nothing was found. although they did add more antifreeze. things were going fine until it got cold outside. when starting my brand new 2005 chevy equinox a popping noise was heard from the rear. i took it to the dealer and they stated that it was the exhaust. they replaced the exhausted and nothing was heard, at least for two weeks. needless the say the noise has come back and no one seems to know what's wrong. to top it off a foul smell comes from the vents went the heat is on. i now have to ride with the window slightly open because the smell is now cause headaches for me and my passengers. i am deeply concerned about the condition of my vehicle because i have a small child that i am concerned about while traveling in this car. *nm |
