The Equinox came out in '05 and it sounds to me like this is an error that they did not fix before production.Owners of the Chevrolet Equinox have complained of engine problems, knock or rattle, and excessive oil consumption. ![]() We are going to take the vehicle to the chevy dealership here and see what they say, but I really feel this is a problem that needs to be looked into because I do not have the money to buy cd players and batteries every few months. One person said that they even replaced the cd player multiple times and every few months it does the same thing. I have searched this problem online and many people have the same complaint. When we mentioned this to my husband's mother she said when it died the time she drove it had said the same thing. And still having it unplugged the vehicle has a hard time starting because it is like it can no longer hold a charge. My husband has to unplug the fuse for the cd player or it drains his battery. " it even does this when the vehicle is turned off so it ends up killing the battery. When you listen to the cd player it sounds like player is trying to eject a cd but it wont and eventually it says on the screen "cd changer error. We had to jump start my husbands car a few days ago and that is when he said something about the cd player staying on after the car was off. They jumped the car and everything has been fine until a few days ago. It appears that something is causing a draw on the system and gm has not been able to identify the issue.Ī few months ago my husbands mother drove his 2005 chevy Equinox to the store and the battery died. Gm has been unable to identify the root cause of their battery issues.

My odometer reads 39,000 thus voiding any warranty coverage of up to 36,000. And if the battery does fail, you will not be able to start the vehicle. You can still drive your Chevrolet but it may become harder to start. To avoid a situation where you can't start your vehicle, please schedule service with your preferred service provider as soon as possible, so they can replace your battery.
