The 2014 Chevy Equinox comes equipped with a timing chain, though it is not without its potential issues. Some common problems you may encounter with the engine include excessive oil consumption, necessitating more frequent oil changes than usual. One serious issue is the risk of engine overheating, which could result in fires and potential explosions. It is important to promptly address any loose gaskets and tighten them as needed. Keep an eye out for spark plug issues, such as them popping off and causing engine disruptions. Any oil leaks should be promptly repaired to prevent further damage. Remember to change the coolant every 60,000 miles, replace spark plugs every 100,000 miles unless they are copper, in which case they should be changed every 30,000 miles. Lastly, ensure the air filter is replaced every 15,000 to 30,000 miles for optimal performance.
