One of the worst cars I have owned

At first, I was okay with it. There were some things that I did not like - no arm rest - but I just have a base model - so I accepted it However the car started to malfunction on me. I purchased it at the end of October and started having issues the first part of November. I took it back to the Dealership where I purchased the car from and was told that they could not get the car to reproduce the problem. I picked it up and it worked okay for a while - but then it malfunctioned again - back to the dealer - and got the same response. It is now at the dealership and has been for three weeks and they still cannot tell me what is wrong. I am paying a car note and car insurance but do not have a car to drive - no loaner or nothing else. The car is just not safe to drive. I am having an issue with the brakes. My foot is on the floor of the car, but the car will not stop. I have to take the car out of drive to get it to stop. It makes a terrible grinding noise. There is some kind of smoky like exhaust that I see in the rear view camera - that you are not supposed to see unless the car is in park. Once the episode has stopped - it then goes back to working like nothing ever happened. The episodes come about with no warning whatsoever. The brakes go from mushy to hard and somewhere in between. I went from being excited and thrilled to have a new car, to being totally exasperated, disgusted, frightened and broke. While I know that this is not every Trax - I see a lot of them on the road. I still will not recommend anyone to buy this vehicle

Found an excellent, dependable, easy to handle car

Easy to get in and out. Roomier than I thought it would be. Handles well. Good gas mileage. Love the style. All wheel drive is great in Mi.

Good Return on Investment for a small AWD SUV

Handles and Drives well..for a small AWD SUV style car..Gets Good Miliage and has been dependable, I recommend the LT package to get the best bang for the buck. Nice safety features...This is not a towing off road vehicle..but for a vehicle that sits up high with 18 inch rims with AWD ,,as a commuter it WORKS.

fun to drive

I just got this car. Its so fun to drive and its so cute! I love it! Its too new for me to say if its reliable or not, but I do have an extended warranty so I should be good there. I have had many Chevy's over the years and they all have been good reliable cars so the Trax should be also. I really love the styling, its a smaller SUV but you sit up high, which helps with seeing the road and other cars. Its peppy. Its fun to drive.

Considering it?s size it is a good value.

This vehicle is a fun drive for a smaller vehicle. Holds the road, has adequate speed when needed and good visibility. I enjoy this much more than anticipated.

Trax Premier - Best Car Ever!

This car meets all my wants and needs. It is very stylish and has all the features I love in a vehicle. It's roomy, economical, comfortable and drives great!. I owned a 2015 Trax and the only thing missing from the 2018 are the slots to place your ID or credit cards in. Other than that....I absolutely LOVE my Trax Premier!
