Noticed coolant reservoir was empty. put it in the shop and it is the turbo that chevy manufactures with the engine. it is leaking. the vehicle is only a 2015 with 34,000 miles, the turbo should not be leaking already. it does need to be replaced. i have gotten all the maintenance done.

I was driving my 2015 chev trax and all of a sudden the vehicle started idling very rough and i was not able to accelerate. when i would push on the accelerator it would go down but the car would not speed up. i took the vehicle home and the next day i took it to an auto repair place where the mechanic said that there were multiple miscodes firing and that the check engine light was flashing.

The vehicle will stall while driving and not turn back on unless the vehicle is in park and the key is taken out and put back in. this is a severe safety hazard as it has almost caused me to crash multiple times and the dealership says they cannot find anything wrong with it.

The catalytic converter failed at 88,000 miles causing the check engine light to come on. this is no longer covered under warranty after 80,000 miles. will not pass inspection until replaced, but there is a natiionwide backorder on this part. is this a known issue that they aren't telling the car owners about? car does not run as efficiently, consumes more fuel than promised.

I notice a burning oil odor from inside my trax after the car warms up or in warm weather. using the air conditioner is out of the question on these 90+ degree days. i plan to get the car in tommorrow to he checked. between the burning oil under 9500 miles, the bad brakes under 4000 and rollout backwards when at a stop on an incline, worst chevy, probably last i ever buy.
