2015 CHEVROLET TRAX Complaints

I HAVE HAD TO TAKE MY VEHICLE IN SEVERAL TIMES FOR REPAIR I AM THE FIRST OWNER OF THIS VEHICLE AND IT ONLY HAS 87,000 MILES ON IT. AT 87,000 MILES I HAVE HAD TO HAVE THE VALVE COVER REPLACED FOR LEAKING. I HAVE ALSO HAD TO HAVE AN OIL PAN LEAK REPLACED. AN OIL PAN PIN GASKET REPLACED. AND NOW MY SEAT BELT INDICATOR LIGHT IS NOT MAKING NOISE WHEN THE SEATBELT IS NOT BUCKLED IN. I HAVE TRIED TO DRIVE WITHOUT A SEATBELT ON CITY STREETS AND HIGHWAYS TO SEE IF THE LIGHT WOULD MAKE NOISE AND IT DOES NOT THE LIGHT IS ON ON THE DASHBOARD BUT NO NOISE IS MADE TO INDICATE THAT THE SEAT BELT IS NOT ON.

WHEN EVER YOU RESET THE DATE & TIME ON THE CAR IT ONLY STAYS CORRECT DURING THE TIME YOU ARE IN THE CAR TRAVELING. ONCE YOU TURN THE CAR OFF & TURN IT BACK ON, THE TIME HAS CHANGED & SOMETIMES THE DATE.

THE LOWER CONTROL ARM IS VERY LOOSE. WHEN WE ACCELERATE TO LOW SPEEDS (20-25MPH) WE HEAR A LOUD THUMPING NOISE THAT EVENTUALLY STOPS WHEN WE GET TO HIGHER SPEEDS. SOMETIMES WE HAVE TO LET UP OFF THE THROTTLE TO MAKE IT STOP AND THEN REACCELERATE. WE LOOKED UNDERNEATH FOR THE PROBLEM AND WE CAN PHYSICALLY SHAKE THE LOWER CONTROL ARM.

CAR AIR CONDITIONER STARTED TO BLOW HOT AIR. TOOK CAR TO DEALERSHIP TO HAVE A MULTI-POINT INSPECTION. FOUND REFRIGERANT TO BE LOW, UPON FURTHER INSPECTION HVAC DYE ON COMPRESSOR. WAS TOLD THAT THE AIR CONDITIONER COMPRESSOR NEEDS TO BE CHANGED OUT.

MY CAR STARTED TO OVERHEAT. I NOTICED THE RADIATOR CAP WOULD NOT CLOSE ANYMORE. I HAD TO REPLACE THE RADIATOR CAP. CAR KEPT OVERHEATING, TOOK IT INTO THE SHOP AND IT TURNED OUT I HAD TO REPLACE THE THERMOSTAT, WATER OUTLET HOUSING, AND WATER PUMP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2015 CHEVROLET TRAX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HER DAUGHTER WHO WAS DRIVING AT NIGHT AND GOT TO A DETOUR, AND MADE A TURN, DRIVING DOWN HILL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT BASED ON THE POLICE REPORT, THE DRIVER STOPPED, ATTEMPTING TO AVOID DRIVING OFF THE ROAD, SHE TRIED TO PULL THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD, IT APPEARED THAT THE VEHICLE DID NOT TURN TO THE INTENDED DIRECTION AND CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO CRASH INTO A TREE, RESULTING IN A FATALITY. THE DRIVER, A 26-YEAR-OLD, WAS THROWN OUT OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE ROLLED OVER HER AND INTO AN OPEN FIELD. THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. THERE WAS NO KNOWN WARNING INDICATORS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT ACCORDING TO THE POLICE REPORT, THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT BELT WAS TWISTED AND UNLATCHED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOTALED AND TOWED TO A POLICE IMPOUND LOT. THE VEHICLE WAS LATER TOWED AWAY BY THE INSURANCE COMPANY. THE CONTACT LATER RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V652000 (SUSPENSION). THE DEALER WAS NOT CALLED. THE CONTACT CALLED THE MANUFACTURER WHO TOOK HER INFORMATION AND STATED THAT SOMEONE WOULD CALL BACK. THE CONTACT WAS CALLED BACK BUT WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CALLED BACK. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 62,000.

THE REAR SEAT BELTS HAVE BEEN REPLACED SEVERAL TIMES BECAUSE THEY HAVE FAILED TO RETRACT. THE VEHICLE HAS A LITTLE OVER 50,000 MILES.

MY WIFE AND I OWN A 2015 CHEVY TRAX, ONE OF MY RELATIVES OWNS A 2017 CHEVY TRAX. THE WIFE AND I ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME EXACT ISSUE THAT MY RELATIVE WAS WITH THE FRONT END NAMELY THE LOWER CONTROL ARM AND GM SAYS THEY ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR IT.

I HAVE BEEN SENT A PRETTY EGREGIOUS RECALL BY GM. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE DEALER I PURCHASED THE CAR FROM. DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THEY HAD TO ORDER THE PART. IT'S BEEN A MONTH. WHEN I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY SAID THE PART WAS NOT IN. MEANWHILE, MY FRIEND HAD HER RECALL FIXED THERE. THIS IS REGARDING A JOINT IN ONE OR BOTH FRONT LOWER CONTROL ARMS THAT CAN SEPARATE YOUR TIRES FROM THE VEHICLE. PRETTY SCARY, BUT I AM GETTING NOWHERE WITH THE CHEVROLET PEOPLE. I CALL EVERY DAY. HOW CAN YOU HELP ME ?

NOTICED COOLANT RESERVOIR WAS EMPTY. PUT IT IN THE SHOP AND IT IS THE TURBO THAT CHEVY MANUFACTURES WITH THE ENGINE. IT IS LEAKING. THE VEHICLE IS ONLY A 2015 WITH 34,000 MILES, THE TURBO SHOULD NOT BE LEAKING ALREADY. IT DOES NEED TO BE REPLACED. I HAVE GOTTEN ALL THE MAINTENANCE DONE.
