Equinox

  • Automatic transmission
  • 92,000 miles

The AC works great for about 20 minutes then switches to hot air and the AC freezes over . Vapors start coming out of the vents and then it starts spitting ice. The only way to get cool air again is to turn it off completely for 20-30 minutes to allow it to de-ice. It runs for 20 more minutes and the process starts again. Not optimal for 104 temp degree days and a newborn baby. Freon has been checked and is fine. 2 trips to the Dealer and they can't find the problem. Today is the first I have searched for info regarding the issue and am SHOCKED to see the amount of similar complaints that Chevy has simply chosen to ignore.

Equinox LS V6

  • Automatic transmission

Well, I am back and it is not about the heater this time. My husband and I were traveling to Louisiana this summer and the Air conditioner went out. Then I cussed it! It must not have liked what I had to say because it started spitting ice chunks at my husband.

I admit it was pretty freakin' hilarious, but that is beside the point. The Air conditioner and heater do not work properly. Now my brakes are acting totally weird.

Remember: DO NOT BUY A CHEVY!
