2024 Chevrolet Equinox

Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2024 Equinox.

Transmission Automatic 6-spd

The 2024 Chevrolet Equinox combines an automatic 6-speed transmission with EPA fuel-economy ratings of 24/30/26 mpg. Reliability trackers have logged 65 owner complaints to date, led by the fuel/propulsion system, along with one recall. Set against the model’s historical complaint record from 2005 to 2026—a span that peaked at 784 grievances in 2010 and fell to 55 in 2026—the 2024 model sits near the lower end of that range, marking it as one of the less complaint-prone years in the database.

Factory maintenance schedule OEM · verified

Normal service, condensed from the factory interval matrix.

Under the factory schedule, replace the engine oil and filter every 7,500 mi; spark plugs every 60,000 mi; coolant at 150,000 mi. The big-interval services (at 150,000 mi for coolant, and the transmission fluid) are the ones owners most often skip — on a lower-mileage example, assume the original fluids are still in it and check them first.

Reliability & federal safety record

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.

The 2024 Chevrolet Equinox arrives at a notably stable point in its generational lifecycle, with federal data showing a clear downward trend in complaints—dropping to 65 in 2024 from 87 in 2023 and 154 in 2022—while recalls remain minimal at just one. This contrasts with earlier years of the current generation (2018–2021), where recalls peaked at five in 2018 and 2022, and complaints were more volatile. The 2024 model’s top complaint areas—fuel/propulsion system (8), power train (4), and service brakes (4)—align with recurring themes across the generation but show no alarming spikes in severity or frequency. With only four crash-related complaints and one fire-related report, the safety profile appears consistent with recent low-risk years. The data suggests 2024 is a refinement of prior improvements, not a regression, making it one of the more reliable years in the Equinox’s recent history for a used purchase.
