They're often easy to notice. Chevrolet Equinox transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, jumping or grinding during acceleration, the car shaking on the road, or a burning smell or whistling sounds coming from under the hood. Let Chevrolet Equinox transmission problems linger and you might notice your fuel economy decrease or find that you can't drive your Equinox at all.

2018 Chevrolet Equinox Questions & Answers
