No defect finding or recall as of mid-2026, most cases are characteristic CVT behavior, with software updates issued for shift feel. Worth a long test drive if you're cross-shopping FWD vs AWD (the AWD 8-speed drives more conventionally). Typical cost: N/A (software updates under warranty). ### Infotainment/display glitches (minor) Early-build owners report the 17.7-inch Google-built-in touchscreen or driver display occasionally freezing, rebooting, or losing wireless CarPlay/Android Auto. Dealers fix with software updates; persistent failures get module replacement under the bumper-to-bumper warranty. Typical cost: Free under warranty (software update). ### No safety recalls on the gas model to date (minor) As of mid-2026 NHTSA lists no safety recalls for the gas 2025 Equinox (recalls reported for the "Equinox EV", such as the pedestrian alert sound campaign, apply to the separate electric model). Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls periodically; first-year GM models often accumulate campaigns later. Typical cost: N/A.

Across all years the key points owners look up are simple: dexos1-licensed oil (5W-30 on the older engines, 0W-20 on the turbos), Group 47/48 batteries (AGM once stop/start arrived in 2018), 140 lb-ft lug torque, and a CR2032 fob battery until the 2025 redesign switched to CR2450. Note the bolt pattern changes by generation: 5x120 (2010-2017) to 5x115 (2018 on).
