Where is the battery located in a 2013 Chevrolet Equinox?

I recently bought a used 2013 Chevrolet Equinox and the dealership mentioned that it will need a new battery soon. I wanted to check the battery myself, but I couldn’t find it! Where is the battery located?

Reviewed by Shannon Martin, Licensed Insurance Agent.
Most Chevrolet Equinoxes, including the 2013 model, have the battery under the hood and behind the driver’s side headlight. They’re hard to locate at first because the battery is underneath some other vehicle components. You usually have to remove other parts to expose the battery to access it.
Most vehicle batteries last between three to five years before they need to be replaced. If your Equinox’s battery is approaching this age, it won’t hurt to have a mechanic look it over and help you decide if you should go ahead and replace it.

I got a letter in the mail saying that I was denied dealer financing three weeks after I bought the car. What should I do?
What should I do if I received a letter my financing was denied? The dealership has not contacted me in any other way and I have received all of my paperwork from the lender.

What should I do if a car salesman lied to me?
"What should I do if the car salesman lied to me and added additional fees? I recently bought a car from a dealer. After the purchase, I thought I was getting a specific rate, but now the dealer wants to add fees on top of the financing we worked out."
