raypesek Report post Posted October 4, 2023 (edited) GM has a draft owner's manual update for this issue that only affects the 2023 (and maybe the 2024?) Equinox. They are saying to remove the battery cable after setting up for towing BUT it also says that the 2023 AWD Equinox can no longer be flat towed. A pic of that draft is here: https://www.irv2.com/forums/f85/2023-equinox-tires-screech-in-cloverleaf-onramp-offramp-611553-15.html#post6626234 EDIT: Attached a pic.

raypesek Report post Posted October 9, 2023 A person on another forum posted that they got the entire PDF, or a scan of it, and it has a date of September 15, 2023. They also said they were getting a full buyback of their 2024 Equinox AWD and reimbursement of all fees. Hi, We just bought a 2024 AWD Equinox because the owner’s manual said it could be flat towed and dolly towed. After having issues with dolly towing (brakes kept engaging) I found the solution on this forum. We just needed to put the key in the RV and away from the car. Now it dolly tows fine. However, we found out you CANNOT flat tow it. The owners manual is wrong! I have attached the service bulletin and our owners manual. We were very upset because we planned on flat towing after we got everything installed. The dealership actually said they would buy the car back and cover all the expenses we had like taxes, license plates etc. Be very careful. Check with the service department. https://www.chevyequinoxforum.com/threads/towing-my-2022-equinox-ls-awd.3953/page-2#post-20065 - login required to see the PDF but I put a copy on iRV2: https://www.irv2.com/forums/f85/2023-equinox-tires-screech-in-cloverleaf-onramp-offramp-611553-18.html#post6630738 Ray Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
raypesek Report post Posted November 17, 2023 Per this iRV2 post, GM just revised the flat tow procedure for the 2023 and 2024 Equinox officially. Fortunately, they WILL still allow the AWD version to be flat towed. The copy of the correspondence from one owner's dealer is in this post: https://www.irv2.com/forums/f85/2023-equinox-tires-screech-in-cloverleaf-onramp-offramp-611553-23.html#post6660003 Ray Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
