My car has a light on for the airbag system (which remains on the entire time the car is running) but when taken to the shop to have it read, no codes are showing. After research, i see this could potentially be a software problem, although my specific car has not been recalled. I have concerns with the airbag(s) deploying unnecessarily or not deploying at all in an accident (according to the information in the owner's manual).
We had an single car crash. The car went over a curb and down an embankment and [xxx] near took out a wooden walk way with people near by on the walkway it ended up totaling ($20,000 in damage ) our brand new chevy trax 2016. And when all 11.......... Airbags right 11 airbags and not one when off and we both had seat belt on but i still managed to hit my head so hardi had an small indent in my headand u would think brand new car and 11 air bags u think you would b save ....?? but not in a chevy!!!! all cuz of the airbags and brakes were affected as well.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

The contact owns a 2016 chevrolet trax. While driving at 45 mph, another vehicle across the street ran their stop sign at 45 mph and crashed head on into the contact's front side of the vehicle. The air bags did not deploy. The contact sustained long term back injuries that required medical attention. The party that crashed into the contact was not injured. It was unknown if a police report was filed. The vehicle was towed the contacts residence and then to a local mechanic where it was diagnosed that the frame, grill, a-frame, hood, and a control arm needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and referred the contact to nhtsa.the crash was not in relation any open recall. The failure mileage was 27,000.
Got this vehicle on 07/23/2016, the vehicle had major issues until 09/2018. In september 2018 i took the vehicle to the original lot to have it inspected as when switching the fan for the a/c from 3 to 4 on the blower motor settings stopped working. My dealership replaced the original blower motor. Along with that i was having the issues of the center console (radio unit) and the dash (where the speed, mileage, etc... Is) would go out will driving or not turn on at all and the back up camera wouldn't turn on go. They re-installed the computer software and updated the system and sent me on my way. In 02/2019 i started having the same issues, back up camera and center console not working, and dash turning off and not coming on. Also when i took the key out of the ignition and got out of the car and locked the door and the car was still running. The radio was still playing and the car was still running even though there was no key in the ignition and it was not remote started. I called the dealership that morning to bring the car in that night for service the next day. They kept the trax for roughly 1 week. The installed a new radio, re-flashed and updated the computer, and re-installed the back up camera software. I picked the car up drove roughly 3 miles and brought it back same hour due to it having the same issues. They kept it another 3 days and i got it back after about 2 weeks of work at the dealership. As of 06/11/19 i had to take the car back in for the same issues: dash going out, radio going out, back up camera not working, and the trax still running with no key in the ignition. I called on 06/12/19 they stated the car would not communicate with the diagnostics computer and they would have to replace the radio they installed 4 months ago. Part was ordered and over-nighted but never came in on 06/12/19. Waiting to see if i can return this lemon of a car now.

I bought a brand new 2016 chevy trax on 10/31/16. One week later, i went into the garage, got into my new car which stated right away but i had no dashboard lights so i had no idea what speed i was traveling. I had no radio or rear camera back up. I had no onstar service or telephone service. The only thing that worked was my heater. When i turned my turn signal on to make a turn i couldn't hear it clicking but could see the reflection of the flashing front turn signal light on the bumper in front of me as well as my headlights shining on the car in front of me. Everything on the inside was dark except the lights on the heater/ac unit and the heater worked fine. Since then, i have gone into my garage on three more occasions to drive my new 2016 chevy trax only to find the same problem - no electrical system. The second time it happened, was 11/20/16, 2 weeks after the first time. I drove to and from my house to a local restaurant about 5 miles away for dinner with no dashboard lights, onstar service, back up camera, radio or phone service. After we got home that evening i kept checking my car to see if it was working yet and several hours later the lights finally cameon when i opened the driver's door. The 3rd time was on 12./10/16 and my friend who i drove from my house about 3 miles to pick up recorded me driving the trax without the dashboard lights, etc working. We made a right turn at the end of his street and everything lit up and started working again. The 4th time was on 12/24/16 two days after the dealership i bought the trax at supposedly "fixed" it. I've had 3 service calls at 2 chevy dealers and the problem is still not fixed. There is no rhyme or reason as to when it is not going to work and no one thing or time frame as to when it decides it is going to work again.
Vehicle was purchased new. In less than 3 years the paint on the hood had a large patch of paint flaked off to the metal.i was told it was not covered by warranty.within the last year, there are more places on the hood and now a larger patch of paint on the trunk that has bubbled and /or started peeling off. The vehicle has only been washed by hand with a household hose and gentle cleaner made for cars. As a matter of fact,the original paint peel resulted from try to rinse the vehicle with plain water.due to all of this we are going to have the whole vehicle repainted at less than 4 years of ownership . Ther is also an undiagnosed electrical issue. The radio and phone controls on the steering wheel are not functional and we are unable connect any devices using bluetooth.also temperature measurement is missing from the display
Drivers side passenger door power lock stopped working. Our 2016 trax has only 17000 miles on it. We had our 4 yr old granddaughter in the back in here car seat. We could not get the door open. Eventually i was able to pull the door lock up from the top of the car. We were stationary at the house after leaving the park. If this car was to have caught on fire i am not sure what we would have done. Our bumper to bumper warranty ended in june which was 3yr 36,000 mikes. However we did purchase a 3rd party extended warranty which makes me pay a $200 deductible.i made contact with chevrolet, here is the claim number [xxx] the senior advisor is john. I believe that chevrolet has an integrity issue with doing the right thing especially a severe safety flaw with there power door locks. The service advisor at haley chevrolet in midlothian va said that the door locks just stopped working for no reason. Its not the $200 that i have to pay it is just the principle of them giving me the run around. This could be a on going issue that is building. Hopefully, know one will be injured due t this flaw.thanks,[xxx]information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
Interior lights dim on star doesn't work radio doesn't work and no soundchimes for blinkers or sensors. Key gets very hot.
At 30k miles all lights would light up and something would drive wrong.from steering to low accelerationand everything in between. Dealership unable to figure out problem as well as local shops.it's back in at dealership.they recently ordered the underhood fuse box to be installed at $980.00 and now telling me it's still not fixing the problem.
The key was barely bumped while in the ignition and driving on a high speed road twice and the key turned to the off position so my steering wheel locked up to the point i can barely get to the side of the road to safely put the car in park to restart it. Having a baby in the backseat too both times made it a very scary situation
On 11/23/19 i'm just leaving home early on saturday morning and on timaquana rd while i was driving my 2016 trax locked up on me and my chevrolet trax motor just stopped in the middle of the road ,this could have been fatal and thank god i didn't get crushed in the middle of traffic. All the lights came on as if it was electric problem
When i am driving there is a loud knocking sound always. It happens while driving at any speed, turn, and parking. When i hit about 40 mph, the vehicle steering wheel starts shaking and it is difficult to control vehicle. I can feel the knock underneath my feet while driving. In regards to the electrical system the radio freezes frequently and rear view parking camera has malfunction. In regards to the windshield wiping systems it just stopped working. Fluid does not come out at all making it very difficult to see the in various conditions. I have to pull over wherever i may be, use a water bottle to throw water on window to see then turn the wipers on. I even have to do it while driving especially on the expressway in rainy/dusty/muddy conditions. My family and i are worried and definitely not happy about these conditions. Kingdom chevrolet sold us a faulty vehicle and now claim that we have to pay $135 for each and every issue which is insane for a diagnostic.
I was driving on a suburban road and my engine light, and stabilitrak light came on and it was suddenly driving as though i was on huge boulders and rock and shaking and having a difficult time gasing. I had to get it towed and barely made it home a couple miles away. The dealor mechanic said my cars driveshaft broke, only after 25k miles. Then less than a year later i am driving on a flat road normal conditions and my engine light is on and its driving rough, having a difficult time getting gas it felt like. Come to find out the coil pack was misfiring. The coil pack was corroded and burnt out. The spark plugs in turn were no good. My car was leaking gas and was running on 3 fuel injectors as the 4th was broken. This occurred right before or at 40k miles! it has been to the mechanic shop 6 times in 2 months. I bought it brand new.
Steering wheel stiffened up while driving making it impossible to turn. Shut the car off and restarted. Wheel will turn but now there's clicking noises in the steering column when turning. Same week the anti theft alarm went off and no one was near the car. Also said i didn't have the correct key, which i did as i was able to start the car with it. Radio sometimes takes longer than normal to turn on... Seems to be a lot of electrical issues.
Chevy sucks. Bought my 2016 chevy trax in september 2015. It's been well maintained. At the 59,000 mile mark, the steering wheel locks up and the engine powers down with no warning, esc lights comes on and the car loses acceleration. Took it to 1 dealer who keeps it for 4 weeks when they figure it's a module. I brought it to my regular mechanic who has a relationship with another chevy dealer so i could save on labor, they have it for another 4 weeks. And still with the savings, it cost me $1120 for this repair on top of the $218 i paid for the original diagnostic. I finally get the car back, have it for a day and it's the same problem! they replaced the battery, and still the problem is still occurring and the dealer cannot figure out what is wrong. This is chevy's [xxx] product! nothing in the normal wear and tear of car ownership should have me shelling out all this money when i bought it brand new and have had it for 3 1/2 years. I've made 3 car payments in the last 90 days and still don't have a car to drive. I will never buy a chevy again!parts of this document have been redacted to protect personally identifiable information pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6)
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.
While driving at around 40 miles the 2016 chevy trax loss power to 5-10 mph, the steering wheel got stiff, the transmission and engine got idle. I took it to the chevy dealer.for fortune i was not driving in the highway.iam very concern as i don't feel this car is safe to drive. The car has currently 38k miles, i bought it used with little under 36k miles. I noticed about 7-8 similar complains is different websites. I think somebody from nhtsa should look at this issue. Driving a car with these problems can result in major accidents and potentially death.
On august 30, 2017 i recieved an alert from onstar (via email) stating my 2016 chevrolet trax (with 14,000 miles on it) was having numerous safety issues. That same day, i drove my trax on the highway on my way home from work and it stalled out twice while going 70 mph almost to a complete stop in rush hour traffic. It continued to sputter the entire drive home, and my check engine light was flashing. I got it home, then the next day drove it to a dealership for repair. While driving it there, the vehicle was struggling to operate, and barely pushing 1000 rpm. It felt as though it would stall again if i accelerated too quickly.

Started driving and in 10 minutes the car started hesitating and suddenly stalled.the engine light and the stability light also went on.. I was able to start the car again just long enough to park it on the side of the road. Waited for tow which was taking long in 96 degree weather. So i drove the car home (15 minutes away) had to drive very slow cause felt like turning off..took 45 minutes to get home..called dealer in the morning and they gave me a towing number. I called @9:30am, waited to call back at 12:30pm and no record of anyone sent out. Again they said some would be sent. They arrived at2:50pm. Praying everything turns out good.

While driving it there, the vehicle was struggling to operate, and barely pushing 1000 rpm. It felt as though it would stall again if i accelerated too quickly.
Check engine light came on when i cranked the car up. Went to have it checked and at first it was a bad o2 sensor. That was fixed and two days later the check engine light was back on, took it back in and now i have to replace the air intake system on a vehicle with right at 27,000 miles on it. Both times, i keep getting diagnostic alerts from onstar telling me to check the antilock braking system and the stabilitrak control system.
Car idles rough and when trying to accelerate onto the highway or up a hill the vehicle would jump roughly and have a loss of power. Check engine light came on engine misfire was the code. Dealership cleared the code and said problem could not be duplicated. The issue got worse but no code came back. During the removal of ignition coil for replacement the #4 plug broke showing corrosion and a crack.
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.
Appears to have a turbo failure and more of these vehicles are having same problems with their turbo to
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.
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!
The contact owns a 2016 chevrolet trax. The contact stated that while his wife was driving at an undisclosed speed, the rear windshield cracked without impact. An unknown dealer was contacted however, due to the distance, the contact was unable to have the vehicle taken to be diagnosed. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and stated that the failure was not covered under warranty. Additionally, while driving approximately 65 mph, the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to gilman dodge chrysler jeep (10585 w sam houston pkwy s, houston, tx 77099, (832) 553-0100) to be diagnosed. The map sensor needed to be replaced due to a defective valve cover. The valve cover and map sensor was replaced. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 68,300. *lnconsumer stated defectives occurred within a year.
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.
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.
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.

I was driving the car on a busy highway and suddenly the vehicle was difficult to control, the engine light and traction control light came on. Later i learned that the vehicle was running on three cylinders. The vehicle had under 40,000 miles. Diagnostic p0300 coil pack failure causing spark plug to misfire and car became a safety issue on the road. This is not a recall part, additionally gmc is charging owners to repair.

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.

I bought a brand new 2016 chevy trax on 10/31/16. One week later, i went into the garage, got into my new car which stated right away but i had no dashboard lights so i had no idea what speed i was traveling. I had no radio or rear camera back up. I had no onstar service or telephone service. The only thing that worked was my heater. When i turned my turn signal on to make a turn i couldn't hear it clicking but could see the reflection of the flashing front turn signal light on the bumper in front of me as well as my headlights shining on the car in front of me. Everything on the inside was dark except the lights on the heater/ac unit and the heater worked fine. Since then, i have gone into my garage on three more occasions to drive my new 2016 chevy trax only to find the same problem - no electrical system. The second time it happened, was 11/20/16, 2 weeks after the first time. I drove to and from my house to a local restaurant about 5 miles away for dinner with no dashboard lights, onstar service, back up camera, radio or phone service. After we got home that evening i kept checking my car to see if it was working yet and several hours later the lights finally cameon when i opened the driver's door. The 3rd time was on 12./10/16 and my friend who i drove from my house about 3 miles to pick up recorded me driving the trax without the dashboard lights, etc working. We made a right turn at the end of his street and everything lit up and started working again. The 4th time was on 12/24/16 two days after the dealership i bought the trax at supposedly "fixed" it. I've had 3 service calls at 2 chevy dealers and the problem is still not fixed. There is no rhyme or reason as to when it is not going to work and no one thing or time frame as to when it decides it is going to work again.
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.
Front end pops when i make sharp turns, engine has a distinctive miss and back brakes do not hold
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.
Check engine light on. Vehicle hesitate and shudder when when driving and idling.
Chevy sucks. Bought my 2016 chevy trax in september 2015. It's been well maintained. At the 59,000 mile mark, the steering wheel locks up and the engine powers down with no warning, esc lights comes on and the car loses acceleration. Took it to 1 dealer who keeps it for 4 weeks when they figure it's a module. I brought it to my regular mechanic who has a relationship with another chevy dealer so i could save on labor, they have it for another 4 weeks. And still with the savings, it cost me $1120 for this repair on top of the $218 i paid for the original diagnostic. I finally get the car back, have it for a day and it's the same problem! they replaced the battery, and still the problem is still occurring and the dealer cannot figure out what is wrong. This is chevy's [xxx] product! nothing in the normal wear and tear of car ownership should have me shelling out all this money when i bought it brand new and have had it for 3 1/2 years. I've made 3 car payments in the last 90 days and still don't have a car to drive. I will never buy a chevy again!parts of this document have been redacted to protect personally identifiable information pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6)
On august 30, 2017 i recieved an alert from onstar (via email) stating my 2016 chevrolet trax (with 14,000 miles on it) was having numerous safety issues. That same day, i drove my trax on the highway on my way home from work and it stalled out twice while going 70 mph almost to a complete stop in rush hour traffic. It continued to sputter the entire drive home, and my check engine light was flashing. I got it home, then the next day drove it to a dealership for repair. While driving it there, the vehicle was struggling to operate, and barely pushing 1000 rpm. It felt as though it would stall again if i accelerated too quickly.
While driving at around 40 miles the 2016 chevy trax loss power to 5-10 mph, the steering wheel got stiff, the transmission and engine got idle. I took it to the chevy dealer.for fortune i was not driving in the highway.iam very concern as i don't feel this car is safe to drive. The car has currently 38k miles, i bought it used with little under 36k miles. I noticed about 7-8 similar complains is different websites. I think somebody from nhtsa should look at this issue. Driving a car with these problems can result in major accidents and potentially death.
Started driving and in 10 minutes the car started hesitating and suddenly stalled.the engine light and the stability light also went on.. I was able to start the car again just long enough to park it on the side of the road. Waited for tow which was taking long in 96 degree weather. So i drove the car home (15 minutes away) had to drive very slow cause felt like turning off..took 45 minutes to get home..called dealer in the morning and they gave me a towing number. I called @9:30am, waited to call back at 12:30pm and no record of anyone sent out. Again they said some would be sent. They arrived at2:50pm. Praying everything turns out good.
We had a problem shifting gears. The problem occurred while in moving at very slow speed (0-3mph) in a parking spot (in a lot), moving forward and back while demonstrating the use of the car, with a rented chevy trax 2016 model which had been previously rented by the time we acquired it. First, we were able to shift into reverse and move the car in reverse. Next we shifted into drive but the car continued to move in reverse. While the engine continued to run, we tried numerous times to shift and re-shift into drive but the car continued to move in reverse.finally, we put the car in park, turned the engine off, restarted, aggressively shifted into drive and was able to move the car forward. We did not drive the car on open road until it was time to return the rental. We paid for a rental we did not want to use.
On the highway doing 70mph, the transmission won't choose a gear and flips between 5th and 6th while at high rpm. The car looses all power to accelerate and holds gear at 5th while maintaining a 4000-5000 rpm. When i switch to manual to put the car in 6th, the rpm return to idle and the car will not accelerate
The shift button sticks when putting the car into park which 1. Does not allow the key to be removed and 2. Allows the shifter to be accidentally moved into gear which is a major safety issue.
The rear middle seat belt locks up if you fold the back seats down to haul anything. You can't get the seat back up without taking it to the dealership. Hadn't had my vehicle a year and then they want to charge me almost $500 to repair. A seat belt locking up is a serious safety issue.
In passenger front seat when someone is sitting there the seatbelt will just undo on its own at times. Also the person will weight over 100lbs and the air bag light indicator will go to on and off.
The contact owns a 2016 chevrolet trax. On three different occasions, the rear driver's and middle seat seat belts failed to latch. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer (puente hills chevrolet, 17300 gale ave, city of industry, ca, 91748) where it was diagnosed that the seat belt failed and needed to be replaced. The rear driver's seat belt was replaced as a courtesy, but the failure recurred. The middle seat seat belt also failed. The same dealer was notified and did not assist. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was unknown.

This involves the drivers bottom seat assy. Within 10,000 of driving this vehicle, noticed the foam padding was breaking down on the left side of the seat cushion. When this occurs, you end up sitting on a round steel tube which is part of the seat frame. I was able to have the gm dealer replace under warranty, within approx. 10,00 miles again the seat cushion has degraded to the point of sitting on metal. I then contacted chevrolet service, see service request number: 8-3426353686. After describing the issue, was contacted by the dealer, told them was a design flaw, told chevrolet this, was then told to replace would cost money. I would have no issue with this except the seat is poorly designed and needs to be redesigned.
The contact owns a 2016 chevrolet trax. While driving 25 mph, the vehicle lost brake functionality and was involved in a crash. The failure occurred without warning. A police report was filed and there were no injuries. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the failure could not be replicated. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 8,500. The vin was not provided.

Trax has squeaky and squealing brakes every time brakes are applied. This noise started off every once in a while, now is a consistent headache. Took to dealer serice and they couldn't find anything wrong, ok squealing brakes and they couldn't find anything wrong... All they could come up with is that all vehicles do that if it sits for long periods. The vehicle is driven every day. Chevrolet must really think it's customers are really stupid. I have owned lots of vehicle's in my life and have not once ran into this problem. I am a first time chevrolet purchase customer, if and when this problemgets resolved i will never buy another chevrolet product again.
I was slowing down to a red light and the brake froze, it would not continue to press down, i ended up hitting another car. I put the car in park, turned it off and turned it back on and the brake was still stuck.
About 3 months after purchasing this brand new car, the brakes started squealing when stopping. I toke in to lawrence hall chevroletabilene, texas, they couldn't recreate the noise. So i made several videos of this and showed and emailed to lhc. They said they could not find problems. 4 service calls later , they said they will regrease the brakes. That helped a little. Now it sounds like it is down to the metal when i stop.
We had an single car crash. The car went over a curb and down an embankment and [xxx] near took out a wooden walk way with people near by on the walkway it ended up totaling ($20,000 in damage ) our brand new chevy trax 2016.

Steering wheel locked up (cannot turn) while driving.
Steering wheel stiffened up while driving making it impossible to turn. Shut the car off and restarted. Wheel will turn but now there's clicking noises in the steering column when turning. Same week the anti theft alarm went off and no one was near the car. Also said i didn't have the correct key, which i did as i was able to start the car with it. Radio sometimes takes longer than normal to turn on... Seems to be a lot of electrical issues.

Upon getting in the vehicle and turning it on, the steering wheel would not turn . It was locked and would not all ow me to steer it. I was attempting to drive it to another location in my yard, but the steering wheel was not allowing me to turn it. I have red other owners have similar complaints online. This is a safety hazard. And could cause a car wreck . This vehicle came from the manufacturer this way. This is intermittent and when it was happening the steering wheel light with an exclamation point lit up in the dashboard..

One morning whengoing to start the vehicle, the power steering would not work and the power steering indicator light would remain on.the vehicle was parked in my driveway.after a couple of hours, i would start the vehicle and the power steering would work with no issues.the next morning, the same thing happened, and i drove it to the dealership. I have to pay $1,600.00 to replace the entire steering system - everything: steering column, computer/electrical, alignment, etc.my chevy trax is only 4 years old and has 25,000 miles.i keep it regularly serviced only with the dealership where i purchased the vehicle.the only positive is that this did not happen while i was driving, but could have be very dangerous if so.
The paint started to peel off the back panel of my car under the back window.dealership and chevy said it did not qualify for corrosion warranty and did not provide assistance.it wasn't even covered under extended bumper to bumper warranty that was purchased through the dealer.paint should not be falling off of a new vehicle after 4 years for no reason.other brilliant blue chevy traxs have been having same issue when i researched issue.definitely a bad batch of paint used during this time period.
Vehicle was purchased new. In less than 3 years the paint on the hood had a large patch of paint flaked off to the metal.i was told it was not covered by warranty.within the last year, there are more places on the hood and now a larger patch of paint on the trunk that has bubbled and /or started peeling off. The vehicle has only been washed by hand with a household hose and gentle cleaner made for cars. As a matter of fact,the original paint peel resulted from try to rinse the vehicle with plain water.due to all of this we are going to have the whole vehicle repainted at less than 4 years of ownership . Ther is also an undiagnosed electrical issue. The radio and phone controls on the steering wheel are not functional and we are unable connect any devices using bluetooth.also temperature measurement is missing from the display
The contact owns a 2016 chevrolet trax. The contact stated that the passenger side roof molding fractured after a trip to a car wash in dec 2018.the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who re-attached the molding piece was taped down with 3m double-sided tape, but the failure recurred two times.

The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and stated that the warranty was expired. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 7,500.
The vehicle was stationary on a city street when the paint on the lift gate flake off.
My paint started peeling off the rear of my car. I've taken my car to different dealers and have been told that there's nothing that can't be done bc i'm out of warranty. There are several cars that i've seen in my community same color, (blue) same location where the paint is peeling off there car as well. The paint job itself is going to 5,000 dollars. It's not my fault but seems as if the blue chevrolet trax paint needs to be recalled.
The paint is pealing off.
I wrecked my car and the air bags didn't deployed the fire department was worried why they didn't the wreck totalled my trax. I was a main highway.
Vehicle received side impact on drivers side, air bags never deployed and drivers side rear wheel was ripped off from vehicle
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!
Front end pops when i make sharp turns, engine has a distinctive miss and back brakes do not hold
When i am driving there is a loud knocking sound always. It happens while driving at any speed, turn, and parking. When i hit about 40 mph, the vehicle steering wheel starts shaking and it is difficult to control vehicle. I can feel the knock underneath my feet while driving. In regards to the electrical system the radio freezes frequently and rear view parking camera has malfunction. In regards to the windshield wiping systems it just stopped working. Fluid does not come out at all making it very difficult to see the in various conditions. I have to pull over wherever i may be, use a water bottle to throw water on window to see then turn the wipers on. I even have to do it while driving especially on the expressway in rainy/dusty/muddy conditions. My family and i are worried and definitely not happy about these conditions. Kingdom chevrolet sold us a faulty vehicle and now claim that we have to pay $135 for each and every issue which is insane for a diagnostic.
Started driving and in 10 minutes the car started hesitating and suddenly stalled.the engine light and the stability light also went on..

Got this vehicle on 07/23/2016, the vehicle had major issues until 09/2018. In september 2018 i took the vehicle to the original lot to have it inspected as when switching the fan for the a/c from 3 to 4 on the blower motor settings stopped working. My dealership replaced the original blower motor. Along with that i was having the issues of the center console (radio unit) and the dash (where the speed, mileage, etc... Is) would go out will driving or not turn on at all and the back up camera wouldn't turn on go. They re-installed the computer software and updated the system and sent me on my way. In 02/2019 i started having the same issues, back up camera and center console not working, and dash turning off and not coming on. Also when i took the key out of the ignition and got out of the car and locked the door and the car was still running. The radio was still playing and the car was still running even though there was no key in the ignition and it was not remote started. I called the dealership that morning to bring the car in that night for service the next day. They kept the trax for roughly 1 week. The installed a new radio, re-flashed and updated the computer, and re-installed the back up camera software. I picked the car up drove roughly 3 miles and brought it back same hour due to it having the same issues. They kept it another 3 days and i got it back after about 2 weeks of work at the dealership. As of 06/11/19 i had to take the car back in for the same issues: dash going out, radio going out, back up camera not working, and the trax still running with no key in the ignition. I called on 06/12/19 they stated the car would not communicate with the diagnostics computer and they would have to replace the radio they installed 4 months ago. Part was ordered and over-nighted but never came in on 06/12/19. Waiting to see if i can return this lemon of a car now.
My 2016 trax slid into rear of a car who suddenly braked while we both travelled on highway.i broke too. Probably hit other car while i was going 25 mph.moderate front end damage.engine stopped.but car caught on fire.total loss of car
When i turn left, the right side makes a popping noise around the ball joint. Reservoir coolant tank leaks, and no tempature guage..

My daughter was driving the chevy trax when the engine light came on. I scanned the car when she got home. Code was p0420 for low converter efficiency. I put the car up on my car lift and found that the flex pipe behind the converter was separated most likely from rust. This is allowing exhaust gasses into the car and it is dangerous. This is happening on many chevy trax and chevy cruz vehicles. I took it to the dealer and they will not cover the repair. She has owned it 4.5 years and has only 28,000 miles on it. We purchased a major guard warranty from gm when we bought the car but they denied the repair. This is a safety issue. The paint is also peeling off of the hood but they say that is not covered either even though this is happening to many gm cars.
Drivers side passenger door power lock stopped working. Our 2016 trax has only 17000 miles on it. We had our 4 yr old granddaughter in the back in here car seat. We could not get the door open. Eventually i was able to pull the door lock up from the top of the car. We were stationary at the house after leaving the park. If this car was to have caught on fire i am not sure what we would have done. Our bumper to bumper warranty ended in june which was 3yr 36,000 mikes. However we did purchase a 3rd party extended warranty which makes me pay a $200 deductible.i made contact with chevrolet, here is the claim number [xxx] the senior advisor is john. I believe that chevrolet has an integrity issue with doing the right thing especially a severe safety flaw with there power door locks. The service advisor at haley chevrolet in midlothian va said that the door locks just stopped working for no reason. Its not the $200 that i have to pay it is just the principle of them giving me the run around. This could be a on going issue that is building. Hopefully, know one will be injured due t this flaw.thanks,[xxx]information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
Latch part that keeps the trunk door closed doesn't lock all of the way. This also makes the car's open door sensor stay on. Also the clock on the home screen does not display the right time.
When i get on highway doing faster speed my car is very loud inside like a bad air leak coming from back somewhere. This is very annoying can't use blue tooth phone because you cannot hear to have a conversation or hear the radio at a normal volume because it is so loud. Had i known this i would have never bought this vechicle.
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.
Cruise control setting does not display the speed you're setting it to, and also registers an incorrect speed at times. There have been 2-3 times now that i have tried to set my cruise control (clicking set while going a certain speed, the light turns green but my vehicle began to increase rapidly. I couldn't figure out what speed i had it set to, and my foot was not on the accelerator, so there is no confusion as to why it was speeding up.
While setting or changing the speed using the cruise control panel steering wheel, the current speed that the cruise control is set to does not display anywhere.this leads to unwanted or unknown speed control of the vehicle. This leads to unsafe driving conditions. Proper annunciation of set speed is necessary for safe operation.the drivers manual for this vechicle does state that it shoulddisplay the set speed (page 221) multiple vehicles at my local dealership were tested and no vehicle displayed the set cruise speed.i have had multiple other chevrolet vechicle (2014 cruze and volt) that do momentarily display the set speed to the driver
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.
When i am driving there is a loud knocking sound always. It happens while driving at any speed, turn, and parking. When i hit about 40 mph, the vehicle steering wheel starts shaking and it is difficult to control vehicle. I can feel the knock underneath my feet while driving. In regards to the electrical system the radio freezes frequently and rear view parking camera has malfunction. In regards to the windshield wiping systems it just stopped working. Fluid does not come out at all making it very difficult to see the in various conditions. I have to pull over wherever i may be, use a water bottle to throw water on window to see then turn the wipers on. I even have to do it while driving especially on the expressway in rainy/dusty/muddy conditions. My family and i are worried and definitely not happy about these conditions. Kingdom chevrolet sold us a faulty vehicle and now claim that we have to pay $135 for each and every issue which is insane for a diagnostic.
