I only had the car a month and had to have the stabilizer joints and struts replaced....fast forward a year and guess what same problem ..really ????......3 years later and many weeks at the Chevy dealership ( hi Tom) I still have the same problem>>If i have to replace the struts on that car one more time I'm going to make Tom foot the bill >:l
My equinox is a 2005 with only 65,000 miles on it when it started with the problem. It rattles on the left front side the least little bump I go over. Going over gravel you might as well forget it!!! It sounds awful!! I've had it checked out with two different mechanics and they tell me the struts are bad, then says it shouldn't need new struts with only 65,000 miles. The cost to have them replaced and a front end allignment is outrageous. Chevrolet needs to have a recall on this problem because it shouldn't have gone bad already.
EVERY SINCE I BOUGHT MY CAR IN AUGUST 2005, I HAVE HAD TO HAVE THE STRUTS REPLACED, THE WIRE FROM THE GAS PEDAL TO THE ENGINE BURNT OUT, THERE WAS A BROKEN HUB IN THE FRONT CAUSING A RUBBING SOUND ON THE TIRES, AND VARIOUS SCREWS HAVE FALLEN OUT IN THE INTERIOR

Second failure in 2 years, I live on pavement, and never drive off road. This time I will not buy GM replacement parts, since they are junk.
