Summary

2weeks after purchasing this car with aprox. 350 miles on the car the tires were bald . The dealer replaced the tires and said they saw no reason for this to have happened. Now with about 26,000 miles on the car I am being told the tires are bad again and I need to replace them. I am not understanding why the tires are wearing so quickly.

Summary

We purchased the vehicle June 1, 2021. We started hearing a popping noise when being driven. Sometimes it was often and sometimes every now and then. The trax is in the shop as of now. We were told there was a crack in the frame. They said they would weld the area, but it would take time. Car had to be taken apart piece by piece. I asked them what would cause the problem. I was told it was when the car was turned sharply. I have talked to several people and I was told that did not sound right. A sharp turn should not make the frame crack. I wanted the frame changed. They said they would weld it and it supposedly be good as new. I do not feel comfortable driving a vehicle with a welded frame. I think it is a safety risk for me or anyone else to drive it. This our only car we have. They weren't even going to give me a loaner car to use until I made some calls and finally got one. They car is a 2019 and has less than 20,000 miles on it. I don't think this problem should have happened on a car this new.

I WAS TRAVELING IN MY CAR ON THE FREEWAY. TRAFFIC CAME TO A DECELERATION VERY QUICKLY AND SUDDENLY. I WAS ABLE TO SLOW DOWN IN TIME TO AVOID THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME, HOWEVER I WAS STRUCK FROM BEHIND. THE DRIVER BEHIND ME MUST HAVE SWERVED ALSO TO TRY TO AVOID HITTING ME DIRECTLY FROM BEHIND. SHE HIT MY REAR DRIVER SIDE. THIS ACTION CAUSED MY CONTROL ARM, STRUT TOWER, ROTOR, WHEEL AND ALL OTHER ASSOCIATED PARTS TO DETACH FROM THE VEHICLE. THIS ALSO CONSEQUENTIALLY CAUSED THE BRAKE HOSE TO BE RIPPED FROM THE ASSEMBLY RESULTING IN POOR BRAKE PRESSURE. I WAS ABLE TO PULL TO THE SHOULDER WITH HYDRAULIC BRAKES ALONG WITH THE USE OF MY EMERGENCY BRAKE. VERY MINOR INJURIES WERE SUSTAINED FROM THIS INCIDENT, HOWEVER, THE SITUATION COULD HAVE RESULTED IN SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH. I HAVE NOT EXISTING RECALLS FOR THE PARTS THAT FAILED, HOWEVER, THERE IS A RECALL ON THE FRONT CONTROL ARMS ON THIS VEHICLE.

Summary

I PURCHASED A NEW 2019 CHEVY TRAX AFTER TRADING IN MY 2016 TRAX. I HAD BEEN DRIVING IT FOR ABOUT TWO WEEKS WHEN MY RADIO, TURN SIGNAL, PHONE CALLS AND ONSTAR (NOT SURE ABOUT BACK UP CAMERA) WAS AFFECTED BY SOME GLITCH. THE SOUND WENT AWAY FROM MY TURN SIGNAL, ALL THE RADIO CHANNELS, NO SOUND BUT COULD RECEIVE PHONE CALLS AND TRIED TO CALL ONSTAR PER SALES REP TO DO A DIAGNOSIS BUT THE CALL COULD NOT BE HEARD. THE ONSTAR CALL COULD NOT BE DISCONNECTED. THE EVENTUAL FIX TO THIS WAS I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE SALES REP DID A FACTORY RESET IN THE SETTINGS. THIS BROUGHT IT BACK. I HAD A SIMILAR ISSUE IN MY 2016 TRAX THAT BLACKED OUT THE SCREEN COMPLETELY AND TOOK AWAY ANY SOUND FROM IT AND MY SIGNAL. IT EVENTUALLY CAME BACK AFTER A SHOP PLAYED AROUND WITH IT. SECOND ISSUE WHICH FELL UNDER A WARRANTY REPAIR WAS THAT I NOTICED NOT LONG AFTER BUYING THAT THERE WAS A HIGH PITCHED SQUEAL COMING FROM MY DRIVERS SEAT WHEN STOPPING AND HITTING BUMPS. I THOUGHT AT FIRST THE SPRINGS NEEDED BREAKING IN. IT ENDED UP BEING THE BOLT AT THE BACK RIGHT OF THE SEAT THAT ATTACHED IT TO THE FLOOR. COME TO FIND OUT IT WAS CROOKED AND COMPLETELY STRIPPED WHICH WAS CAUSING THE SEAT TO BOUNCE AROUND. IT WAS ALSO FOUND OUT DURING REPAIR THAT A SECOND BOLT WAS STARTING TO DO THE SAME THING. THIS WAS A BRAND NEW VEHICLE STRAIGHT FROM THE FACTORY. I WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE DEPT THAT VEHICLES FROM THE FACTORY AREN'T STATE INSPECTED. THIS SEEMS TO BE AN UNSAFE METHOD.

Summary

BOUGHT CAR 4 DAYS AGO. STEERING PULLED TO LEFT. WAS ASSURED IT JUST NEEDED ALIGNMENT. NEXT DAY, DEALERSHIP DID A BOTCHED ALIGNMENT (GOT SECOND OPTION AND RE-DO AT BELLE TIRE, PROVING MY SUSPICIONS). ISSUE STILL HAPPENING. CAR PULLS TO THE RIGHT' AND I FEEL LIKE I AM IN A DEATHTRAP. IT FEELS VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE BECAUSE NO MATTER WHAT I DO IT CONTINUALLY WANTS TO PULL TO THE RIGHT. STEERING WHEEL STIFF TURNING LEFT AND LOOSE ON RIGHT. MUST KEEP STEERING WHEEL STRAIGHT EVEN WHEN ON CURVED ROADS THAT TURN LEFTWARD. I AM AFRAID THAT THIS CAR WAS A DEALER LOANER AND SOMEBODY GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT. THE MECHANICS AT BELLE TIRE SAID THEY THINK IT IS A RACK AND PINION PROBLEM. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY CHILDREN IN THIS CAR BECAUSE I AM CERTAIN THAT I AM GOING TO CRASH INTO A TELEPHONE POLE IF I TAKE MY HANDS OFF THE STEERING WELL EVEN FOR A SECOND. IT'S AWFUL.

Summary

I HAD A BAD EXPERIENCE WITH THE BRAKES ON THIS VEHICLE. I HAD THIS CAR TO NOT STOP ON ME ON TWO OCCASIONS . ONCE IN A PARKING SPOT, AND ONCE WHEN I APPROACHED A BUSY INTERSECTION ON A COLLEGE CAMPUS. THE CAR WOULD NOT STOP. IT MADE A GRIND G NOISE, SKIED AND JUST WOULD NOT STOP. I HAD TO THROW THE CAR OUT OF DRIVE TO GET IT TO STOP. THE DEALERSHIP PLILIPS CHEVROLET IS SAYING THE DIAGNOSTIC TESTS DID NOT DETECT A PROBLEM. S I JUST IMAGINED THE TERRIFYING ORDEALS THAT I ENCOUNTERED. I NOW HAVE TO GO BACK AND GET THIS CAR AND DRIVE IT BRILL IT HAPPENS AGAIN. THE WEATHER IS ABOUT TO GET BAD SO WHAT IF IT HAPPENS AND PUTTING THE CAR IN DRIVE DOES NOT STOP IT. I'M TOTALLY SCARED TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE.
