Noxious, a 2013 Equinox has been replaced with Alice the White Horse, a 2013 Equinox LT.
Harvey is extremely happy with spending $400 a month paying it off for the next year.
It's lower miles, in better condition and not falling apart.
Noxious has a myriad of issues.
Paint is coming off the top surfaces.
Hatch seal is chewed from constant ham-fisted Father-In-Law "assistance" with MIL's wheel chair.
AC clutch is dying on a good compressor.
The electronic brake control module has 90% failed.
But the real reason to bail is the excessive blow-by has blown the crank seal.
The LEA engine is known for this and you either have the bad rings, or you don't.
Moxie has the good rings. Noxious doesn't. Alice seems to have the good rings. The 2013 I looked at Saturday definitely had the bad ones, worse than Noxious, but it had not clogged the PCV and blown the crank seal... yet.
We're confident we got a car that someone loved and took care of.
