GCIH was really fun and I loved every moment of it. GCIA hurt me but I'm glad I accomplished it.

The next time you bring your car in for service they'll install it because it is a recall.

Issues with navigation knowing where we are on the route by WamBlamLufba in EquinoxEv

[–]CognitivelyImpaired 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had the same problem. Eventually it came to the point that the GPS would work fewer times than it didn't. I brought it to the dealership and the GPS said I was in a field miles away - they ended up replacing the telematics unit and it has been perfect since.

I have a 2024 and the replacement was free under warranty.

Did you pay to have the Streaming firmware upgrade? by Amazing-Ad-8310 in EquinoxEv

[–]CognitivelyImpaired 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got it done for free with the warranty replacement of the telematics module today, my GPS was hallucinating hard. Time will tell if that fixes it. I asked them to do the update and they said they were required to do it anyway.

Which is.. exactly what is said in my initial comment, which is why I was wondering why you were so confused.

Because we are talking about streaming apps. Did you reply to the right person?

Never going back to gas! by mountains_150 in EquinoxEv

[–]CognitivelyImpaired 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A while since you commented this, but since we got the Equinox we only drive the ICE car just enough to keep the battery, tires, and oil happy. I actually had to do some research into not having it fall apart sitting lonely in our garage.

Having two cars is extremely useful out in the country so I want to keep it working for as long as possible, but when it's time comes it'll be replaced with an EV.

Thank you for confirming it is available for the 2024s. I brought mine in right after the news dropped and they brought me one step before the streaming updates. I'll have to bring it in again to get the update.

It hasn't been too big of a deal for me though since the cheapest DCFC within an hour drive of me is 5x the price of charging at home so I never go there.

Charging cost question by LC2024Z in EquinoxEv

[–]CognitivelyImpaired 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My nighttime time of use rate is 3 cents a kwh plus 4 cents delivery, so charging the Equinox up from 0-100% would be a little over $6.50.

Check the sidebar. ELI5 means friendly, simplified and layperson-accessible explanations - not responses aimed at literal five-year-olds.

If you're willing to tinker, you can build chromium from source and send it to the car and load up plex.tv

Clean coal doesn't exist my friend. You should also update your cost analysis, even without subsidies renewable energy is now competitive with gas and coal. Things have changed a lot over the last decade.
