Consumer Description

OUR 2005 CHEVROLET EQUINOX BEGAN TO BLOW WARMER AIR THAN USUAL WHEN IN THE COLDEST AIR CONDITIONING SETTING. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WERE TOLD THE PROBLEM WAS AN INTERNAL VALVE IN THE COMPRESSOR FOR THE AIR CONDITIONING UNIT. $1,050.00 TO REPLACE. OUR VEHICLE IS 9 MONTHS AND 4,000 MILES OUT OF WARRANTY. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND HE SAID WITHOUT HAVING TO LOOK ANYTHING UP. IT'S A SYSTEMIC PROBLEM WITH THE 2005 MODEL YEAR EQUINOX AND THE PART IS BACK ORDERED FOR 2 MONTHS BECAUSE SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR
