Equinox 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 36,400 miles
2005 Chevrolet Equinox. In October, 2006, I was driving on city streets when I lost steering and my car felt as though a wheel was about to fall off. After towing the vehicle to my mechanic (I was 400 miles past the 36,000 warranty), I found out that the lower control arm had snapped.
