2015 Chevrolet Equinox Service and Repair Manual

This factory service and repair manual for the 2015 Chevrolet Equinox covers four trims, L, LS, LT and LTZ, of a four-door sport utility offered with either a 2.4L DOHC inline-four of 145 cubic inches or a 3.6L DOHC V6 of 217 cubic inches, both naturally aspirated and both able to run gasoline or flex-fuel. The manual separates what the two engines do not share and states plainly what they do, so a specification read for one is never mistaken for the other's.

• 3.6L V6 (217 cu in) — DOHC, naturally aspirated, flex-fuel or gasoline

Known issues on the 2015 Equinox. Two recalls attach to this model year. In one, the inflator in a front seat-mounted side impact air bag can rupture as it fires, so instead of filling the bag it may throw metal fragments into the cabin. In the other, corroded ball joints in the wiper module leave one or both wipers inoperative. The complaint record leans the same way as the second: 235 of 679 concern wipers and visibility, ahead of 165 on the engine and 60 on the power train. Restraint, wiper and engine diagnosis all have their own procedures here.
