I bought this vehicle six months ago from a reputable dealer, and they had just replaced the timing chain as is recommended at 100,000 miles. I was coming home last night and a sudden loud noise and the car stalled, so I restarted it and was having trouble keeping it running, coasted into a parking spot and then there was a VERY loud noise and now the vehicle is as dead as Elvis. Engine is toast, no warning what so ever, it's been running great. I am thankful that I bought the extended warranty but this is a huge inconvenience, I had to have someone drive for four hours today to borrow a vehicle, the Equinox has to be towed over an hour away, I have no clue how long it will be in the shop, and then it's another four hours to return the vehicle that I borrowed, etc. From what I have been reading, this is a common problem with the Equinox.
