How do I check if my 2016 Chevrolet Equinox has an open recall?
NHTSA tracks recalls by VIN, because a recall usually applies only to specific production dates and component batches — not every 2016 Chevrolet Equinox. Decode your 17-character VIN on VinSnap (or NHTSA's own VIN lookup) to see exactly which recalls apply to your vehicle and whether the free remedy has already been completed.
Are recall repairs free on a 2016 Chevrolet Equinox?
Yes. Under U.S. law, safety-recall repairs are performed free of charge by franchised Chevrolet dealers, regardless of the vehicle's age, mileage, or warranty status. You should not be charged for parts or labour on an open safety recall.
What should I do if my 2016 Chevrolet Equinox has an open safety recall?
Contact a franchised Chevrolet dealer with your VIN and book the free recall repair. If the recall is marked "Park It" or "Park Outside", follow that guidance immediately. Keep your contact details current with the manufacturer so recall notices reach you.
