- Enola , PA, USA

My 2016 Chevrolet Trax experienced loss of power while driving on the highway. I experienced moments where it would not accelerate. This put myself and other drivers at risk due to the random loss of power. There was no warning there was any issue with the vehicle prior to this event. In addition, I have experienced A/C failure. I have had this inspected and multiple components replaced by a service shop, but it still is not working.The vehicle is available for inspection upon request.

The air in the car started blowing warm in 2021. I took it to the dealership and they said maybe a leak. They did a leak test and put something I. It to make it cold for a couple days. I-??ve been having g the same complaint since. After looking online, I saw that it is a compressor issue. I had an oil change done last week and asked them to look at it. They said it was my compressor. The car is only 7 years old with 77k miles. The cost to replace is too high for a manufacturer-??s issue.

My trax turbo went out at like 60K and caused my car to shake and stall whenever I was breaking. This would happen at lights and stop me from being able to start my car and placing me and other drivers in a dangerous situation. I have seen online this is a common issue and also a safety violation that should be fixed.

- Avon, CT, USA

While driving on the highway at 80mph engine light came on and the car began to lose speed and would not accelerate. I had the code checked and the code P0299 OBD-II Trouble code: Turbo Supercharger Underboost Condition. My vehicle has just 51K miles. There have also been issues with the passenger seat airbag not working. A year ago, the majority of the pipes in the undercarriage of my car had to be replaced because they had corroded.

the turbo leaked into the converter causing the engine to catch fire

- Sterling , CO, USA

After having the car for 3 years with only 45000 miles, purchased in 2019 with 7000 miles on it, my car keeps jerking like there is an emission issue. Car takes forever to get up to speed properly when merging onto the interstate. I see there's not s recall for the turbo and the emissions purge valve but I have the notices for special coverages"? When I go to the dealership they say there's nothing they can do without a recall?"

- Richmond, KY, USA

The turbocharger in my Chevrolt Trax suffered a stuck wastegate actuator on an interstate while coming up to speed, which caused dramatic loss of power and an inability to safely merge onto the road (top speed was now 35; I-49 has a 70 mph limit. This is the second time the actuator stuck while coming onto a highway. I have had the part replaced twice now, and yet it still sticks. It is a danger to me and to others on the road and should be a mandated recall.

- Lawrence, KS, USA

I purchased the 2016 Chevy Trax used. The car has 68,000 miles on it. I've had issues with this car since I purchased it. The check engine light came on once again with same code as always P0420. I brought it to a Chevy dealer and they finally replace the catalytic converters. Today I get a letter from Chevrolet stating my cars engine 1.4L may have a condition that could cause the turbocharger to fail due to sticking wastegate actuator linkage. Shouldn't this be a recall" No right now it says to keep this letter safe and if anything happens to engine within the 10 years after car was made or 120,000 miles then they will pay for repair. I would think it would be cheaper to fix the part now then replace everything that gets damaged after the fact no"

I Brought This Car As Is Bical Auto Mall. (The Dealership), I Took The Car To Get Checked Out The First Time And It Had A Weak Battery And I Had To Constantly Get A Boost To Drive My Car 2 Weeks Later I Was Advised To Go To A Gm Dealer Because My Engine Light Was On, The Mechanic Explained Something Was Wrong With The Valve And It Was A Leakage. A Few Day Later My Engine Light Turned On Again And I Had The Same Problem But Only This Time The Car Started Surging And Stalling Out Every Time I Stopped. I Returned To The Gm Dealer Again & The Problem Is Still Ongoing.

- Brooklyn , NY, USA

Vehicle overheated not setting off any sensors, emergency lights or notifications, only notification was when the vehicle started smoking from the hood while driving down the highway. Low coolant and "hot" light are possibly faulty from factory per certified GM service center. Contacted GM they refused to cover cost of repairs which were extremely costly due to a possible fault from the factory on this vehicle, vehicle was in the shop 2 times for same issue.

- Murray, KY, USA

Check engine lot came on and Trax going through gas faster than usual. Did a test got the code P0420. Most likely the O2 sensor but could possibly be the catalytic converter. Wanted to write a report since I seen someone else write a report about the same code in December of 2020.

- Bedford, OH, USA

When I turn left, the right side makes a popping noise around the ball joint. Reservoir coolant tank leaks, and no tempature guage.. there is no way to tell if my car over heats until the light comes on and I have to pull over then? I have never seen a vehicle not have a tempature guage!! also my passenger seat belt will not stay fastened!

I have had this car for three years and have had so many issues with it that I could've paid it off by now if I wasn't constantly fixing it. I have replaced the turbo intercooler because it froze last winter and the check engine light came on. I was told by the dealership it was safe to drive until the part came in but it couldn't go over 10mph so it was unusable to me. I have also replaced the entire turbo once when it blew up from an oil leak that I was unaware of as I am not very knowledgeable with vehicles. Now we had to replace another part on the turbo because it was leaking oil again and the mechanic said we couldn't replace the whole turbo right away as we had to try small fixes first to be covered under the warranty. Replacing this part did help and there is still oil leaking from the oil cap and the smell makes driving the vehicle unbearable especially with a four year old. When we were stopped at a stop light we noticed that there was dark smoke and fumes coming out of the vents so we immediately went home. However, no the check engine light is on and the code says it's the catalytic converter so I am going to have to stick more money into the vehicle. I have had so many issues with this vehicle and it's not even that old.

My car loses power and will not accelerate up hills. Check engine light comes on. I took it to a shop and was told there is a recall on the vehicle for this. Loss of power on the freeway while passing a slow moving truck.

- Apo, OK, USA

My car loses power and will not accelerate up hills, in the cold on the freeway in the morning (6:00am pst). Check engine light comes on. It has been to the shop 6 times since Feb. 2019 for the same issue of check engine light comes on, loss of power, emissions-air leaks which cause loss of power. I will have to upload documents at a later date as I do not have them today. Sending car back to Chevrolet dealership for another check engine light, loss of power on the freeway while passing a slow moving truck.

- Ellensburg, WA, USA

I've had nothing but problems from this engine. I bought brand new in 2016. 2017 I had to have the whole radio system replaced as it quit. 2018, I was driving and check engine light came on. Took to shop and two spark plugs and iginition coil was bad at 32,000 miles. 2019, engine light came on in June and I loss power, engine made high squeal noise and it was just sputtering. Took to shop and they said it was camshaft seal and cover so that was replaced and of course warranty was out. Just this month, Dec 2019, it started doing the same thing again and this time they said it was the camshaft cover again (which they would cover under shop warranty) and it was also the intake manifold and gasket. Which ended up costing me $500. For a car that is only 3 yrs old. I've paid out $1500 in repairs because for some reason it only happens as soon as warranty has expired. This is not right.
