The 2012 Chevrolet Equinox has a fuel filter, but it's not something you can replace separately. It's actually located inside the fuel tank as part of the fuel pump assembly. If you're having issues that seem like a clogged fuel filter, it probably isn't the actual problem. It's more likely that you have a faulty fuel pressure sensor or a failing fuel pump. If it's the latter, the repair cost will be high, and it's best to leave it to professionals. Removing the fuel tank in the Equinox is a complex task that is best done with the vehicle on a lift. While it's technically feasible to do it with jack stands, you'll face risks and complications.
