Chevrolet Equinox check engine light, overheating, and AC not cooling due to faulty fan motor replacement on back order on Chevrolet Equinox

Some Chevrolet Equinox owners report experiencing issues with the check engine light, which can be triggered by various factors such as loose gas caps, faulty fuel injectors, or ignition system problems. Additionally, some owners have encountered serious overheating concerns, particularly in the 1.5 Turbo engine, which can lead to significant damage if not addressed promptly, with signs including high temperature readings and steam from the hood. Furthermore, there are reports of the AC not cooling effectively due to a faulty fan motor replacement being on back order, which can strain the engine and cooling system if not resolved quickly. Owners are advised to regularly check coolant levels, ensure the integrity of cooling components, and address any leaks to prevent further damage. While waiting for the fan motor replacement, it is recommended to avoid using the AC and consult a certified mechanic or authorized Chevrolet service center for interim solutions.
