problem #1

Apr 012005

Equinox 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 10 miles
The consumer stated his wife drove about 15 miles, and complained about the front head rest being tilted so far forward that the seat had to be leaned far back just to be comfortable. Caused pain in the neck and shoulders. Worried that the defect could cause neck injury. Contact went out and bought a head rest for a Saturn vehicle and installed it into his 2005 Chevrolet Equinox.
