Equinox

  • Automatic transmission
  • 50,000 miles

Usually after putting the car in park the locks automatically unlock, but for a few years the drivers side door lock will randomly stay locked. You think it's not a big deal until you don't notice it has happened and ram your shoulder into the door to try and make it open. Doesn't happen everytime, but will on random occasions when I'm already frustrated and don't feel like reaching my finger up and maunally unlocking it

problem #2

Equinox LT 3.4L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 65,000 miles

Broken wires inside door panel. Obviously design issue with positioning of the wires. Of course this happened after the warranty expired.

Equinox

  • Automatic transmission

On the driver side of my truck the window, the speaker and the lock don't work. With the door suppose to being lock it will still come open. The window will not go up or down, and the speaker just don't make a sound at all. All on the driver side.
