When I first bought the vehicle with 77,000 miles, I notice a gallon of water in spare wheel well. Had to reseal rear door whether stripe. 5 months later the actuator of the heater failed and broke the blend door to the heater. I didn't have heat for a year. Brake system sensors failed 3 months ago $2000 fixed hub and assembly and knuckles. Fuel injection line broken at only 100,000 miles.

My heater is blowing cold air. The temperature blend door broke, and it will cost me almost $1000 to fix it! this would have been deadly if it had gone out in -30 degree Minnesota winter temperatures.

Air blend door broken. Heater blows cold air. Vehicle was running.

- Groveland, FL, USA

The heating system no longer produces hot air for the heater/defroster. The problem has been identified as a broken (defective) cheap plastic arm that connects the temperature blend door to an actuator that controls the air blend. Estimated repair bill is $750-$1000. Living in the northwest it's crucial to have a functioning heater/defroster. A winter without such can prove to be disastrous, even fatal. What will GM do about this defect?

My cars engine light and low engine power light came on while crossing an intersection reducing my speed and nearly causing an accident! when it rains, snows or goes through a car wash this happens. This has happened on multiple occasions and no mechanic has been able to resolve the issue.

My heater is only blowing out a little better than cool air I would say it is right below warm and I have a 14 month old child the fix is $750 dollars and a lot of people have the same issue maybe a recall is what needs to happen ??

Takata recall recently my 2006 Chevrolet Equinox ls has stopped heating up my vehicle. I have read multiple articles of owners of this vehicle having the same problem. It is due to the heater blend door being broken. To get this problem fixed is around 1,000 dollars. That is ridiculous, after knowing that more than several people are having the same problems I don't understand why there hasn't been an recall sent out. I would like GM to issue a recall so many people especially with children don't have to drive around with no heat!!!! this problem is extremely unsafe due to the vehicle not having a defrost

Heater blend door- temperature door is broken. This repair is estimated at $1000. After reading several thousand reviews, this is a problem occurring in all of the 06 Chevy Equinox's. Chevy needs to acknowledge this defect and issue a recall. This is a very costly repair that most can not afford and something that needs replaced in a couple of years.

Ignition let's the key go while vehicle is started. Received a notice from Chevrolet stating a recall was issued for ignition cylinder. Took it to my local dealer on 7/14/15 and they said my ignition housing is bad also. Trying to charge me $230 to fix the ignition. I feel a recall needs to be placed on the entire ignition not just the cylinder. My key sticks sometimes in the on position. My key is able to be pulled from the ignition while running. My key sometimes sticks in the off position so I can't start it.

The temperature blend door is the problem on my vehicle. I do not have any heat, which mean I do not have defrosters. This is a dangerous situation, in which the internet is filled with complaints about this on this vehicle.. I don't know how it is not recalled. I was told my my local Chevy dealership it could cost $4,000 to fix. I brought it to another mechanic that told me it is set up to fail, as it is cheaply made! is Chevy waiting for someone to get killed when their defrosters suddenly fail. I used a plug in heater to defrost my windows this past winter because I don't have that kind of money to fix it. The problem with that is the heater kept blowing my fuses. This is a safety issue and should be addressed immediately!!

I was driving down the road and the vehicle just shuts off and it takes along time to get it started again and this happens at least twice a day.

The issue with the HVAC appears to be a common problem, no heat just cold air, defroster will not defrost windows but fogs them all up, which is really a problem @ 65 mph on the interstate. Spoke to dealer about tsb # 11135 issued by GM may of 2012 and they could care less about what is contained in this bulletin. Went back to dealer concerning cruise control just shutting off without warning at highway speeds, they could not get vehicle to replicate this (what no fault codes). Intermittent no start when actually using key to start, dealer claims they could not replicate this also. It appears that the dealership is very good at not wanting to fix or able to replicate any of these issues. Vehicle was bought March 25, 2014 with 99,704 miles on it, current mileage is just shy of 103,000. Come on GM stand behind your product and tell your dealers to be truthful when resaling a vehicle that has a track record like this.

The heater blows cold air and after having my '06 Equinox to the GM dealership twice now (they said they fixed what the bulletin no.: 11135 said to fix) but the problem still exists and they said it's going to cost me $1085 to fix it. I say that GM needs to pay for this...I'm not the only one with the problem, there are hundreds of others with the same problem.

- Brooksville, MS, USA

I have a 2006 Chevy Equinox that the heater will only blow cold air, no heat, to fix the problem and this could cost me $1200, or $800, , I alredy replaced once and now have the same issue.
