- RRB456ExplorerI have the equinox diesel AWD 2018, premier. I AM towing beehive my Winnebago View. I have had no problems, towing fine.
- Nutinelse2doExplorerDeath wobble is on the 2010 through 2017, 2.4lL with electronic steering.
The diesel seems to be ok so far on the 18’s. Gets much better mileage too.
There is a huge thread on FMCA. Check it out. - jplante4Explorer II

I'm looking to get the 2018 Chevy Equinox 1.6L diesel AWD. Dinghy tow list says The AWD can be towed. Anyone out there towing the 2018 Equinox 1.6L diesel AWD? Any issues I need to know before I purchase the car?
I believe there's been reports of the death wobble with the Equinox and it's electronic power steering system? May want to do some searches to confirm?
The death wobble occurs under very specific conditions with the fuse pulled that disables the electric steering assist. A bungie cord on the steering wheel resolves the issue. Towed the Equinox 6000 miles this year and didn't get the wobble once. - Ro_n_JoeExplorer II

- ItsyRVExplorerThe 2018 Equinox is one of those GM mish-mash as far as four down towing. Some can, some can't - that's why you get different answers. The dealers all have technical bulletins that explain which drives, engine and transmission combinations can do it. However, usually they just contact GM owners Center with the VIN and have them give the absolute answer.

I think it’s got the ten speed auto. Did you look in the owners manual? I wouldn’t trust the dealer.
There is the best answer: Read and follow the instructions contained in the Owner's Manual.
Good luck. - Big_KatunaExplorer III clicked the link and got a thread on 50A receps.
