The little SUV that could

Overall I think it's a very good vehicle it's in durable tough and reliable on gas mileage kind of small in the interior but was subject to a recall for the tire rods be careful of the air conditioner it overheats on hot summer Las Vegas days and will shut down on you in the middle of traffic so with that being said 1 out of 10 score I give it a 5 and 1/2

Nice car, handles well, good gas mileage, fun to d

It took me a little bit to adjust to the way the car handles. It is all wheel drive. At first, it felt like a grocery cart with all 4 wheels doing their own thing. Now I love it. Hangs nice to the road. I do feel the wind pushing it on a windy day. It gets over 33 mpg when doing daily commute through small towns and back roads. Over 35 when my husband was driving it regularly on highways.

Nice small size SUV

This car satisfies our need for an SUV with good mileage. The biggest problem with the car is a sign that pops up and fills the touch screen. It tells you not to take your eyes off the road but requires that you take your eyes off the road to read it and to take one hand off the wheel in order to turn it off. The back seats don't fold all the way down and the headrests are in the way. There is only one arm rest in the front. Seats feel hard on long trips. The GPS voice stopped working after 6 months. It is a maneuverable car and has a good turning radius. We are still happy with the car overall.

Would never purchase a Chevy again.

This vehicle has had problem after problem. I bought it brand new with only 25 miles. It has 14,500 miles on it now and these are the issues so far. Making a squeaking sound from hood since the beginning. Check engine light is on. Needs new fuel pump. Trim on top of vehicle needs to be fixed. Seal around window is sticking. Temperature knob won’t turn meaning you can’t control your air or heat. I wonder what will be next?

Horrible Experience for 2018

I liked it at first. It was kind of small but I still liked it. However, I’ve had so many electronic:electrical problems that I would recommend anyone buying this model. It could be the one bad one out the bunch but still. The radio has been replaced twice and still not fixed, my window has been fixed 3 times, the lcd cluster screen has been replaced and still messes up, the back brakes have been messed up since I got the car, the back windshield wiper stopped working at one point, OnStar quit working at one point, etc.!

Do all one year old cars stall a lot like my Trax?

Been back for engine failure 3 times.I don’t want it no more.Mechanics can’t figure it out.If I bought a 1978 Jeep right now it would be more reliable than the 2018 Trax.
