Pros: What do you like about 2005 Chevrolet Equinox?
I like the roominess between the front and back seats. My wife takes care of two grandchildren and we have the two car seats installed and there is still plenty of room between the seats to avoid the kids however active, to avoid kicking the seat in front of them. There is a lot of room up front as well. Glad they didn't try to seat more than five.

Cons: How would you improve 2005 Chevrolet Equinox?
We have already had to replace the brakes at 28,000 miles; were told they just make them cheaper. Not the kind of answer you want to hear on a car of this value.

2005 Chevrolet Equinox Review:
I like the car and am considering buying another, but the brakes are an issue.

Pros: What do you like about 2005 Chevrolet Equinox?
body style,roomy interior and rear seating space

Cons: How would you improve 2005 Chevrolet Equinox?
use better materials in the interior the cheap painted plastic scrathes too easily. I would put a lighter and ash tray in the dash and not charge extra for something that should be included and placed in an accesible area not in a cup holder between the seats on the floor. I only have 18000 miles on mine and the front rotors are warped anyone else has this problem ?

2005 Chevrolet Equinox Review:
the equinox is fun to drive roomy has good acceleration. But the front brakes need some work on them.

The windshield. The sides make it almost impossible to clear away snow and ice. First vehicle I owned that i had to hand scoop the snow off the sides of the windshield.
