Used 2006 Chevrolet Equinox for Sale

I would say the main negative of this vehicle, for our family, is the space inside. For myself and my two children, it is plenty of room, but when my husband drives or rides in my 2006 Chevrolet Equinox, he does struggle with the limited leg room. That being said, he is well over 6 feet tall, and this is not a problem common to the average consumer. My children are currently aged two and six, so, as they grow, I could see interior space being a problem as time goes on. For now, it is not a huge issue. Another negative is some of the cosmetic features of the interior have not held up well. For example, the covers have popped off some of the buttons, the plastic over the speedometer and gas gauge has cracked, and an interior door handle has cracked. These are not overly expensive to fix, but it can get slightly annoying to have to replace them. If it is not a necessity, I do not necessarily always replace them, anyway, but it is still something that takes away from the overall appearance of the vehicle. Overall, it is hard to find things to complain about with this particular vehicle, as it has been extremely reliable in the years we have had it!

The was a recall on the vehicle for the ERG valve. It is a little tube on the engine. It is not a hard fix to do at home at all, but you have to take it into the dealership once you do the upgrade on the part. The dealership charges more than it cost to buy the part to flash the computer. If you don't take it in, then the check engine light will stay on forever. The only other draw back to the vehicle is the front wheel bearings are notoriously bad and have to be replaced almost every 10,000 miles.
