NHTSA Complaint #11185954 — 2016 CHEVROLET TRAX

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!
