To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally request reimbursement or goodwill assistance for the repair of the turbocharger on my Chevrolet Trax, which failed unexpectedly and caused my vehicle to stall in the middle of the freeway, creating a serious safety hazard. I had previously reported concerns related to the turbo, and after the failure occurred, I learned that General Motors issued a Special Coverage Adjustment for turbocharger malfunction on certain Chevrolet Trax vehicles. Unfortunately, I never received any notification or letter informing me of this coverage. Had I been made aware, I would have taken appropriate action prior to the failure. Because this vehicle was my only means of transportation, I had no choice but to immediately repair it at my own expense. I later contacted GM Customer Assistance to inquire about reimbursement and was informed that my request was denied solely due to the vehicle...
Where to begin. I bought the vehicle brand new with 29 miles on it in April of 2017, January of 2019 I started having issues. My check engine light kept coming on and it affected my gas mileage and speed. I had stopped at a chevy dealership in Forest Lake Minnesota and had them scan the vehicle to see what was going on and made an appointment to bring it back in for a full diagnostics. I get there and they asked me if I had another vehicle with me because it would take about a week of it being there. First off, I hadn't agreed to anything yet, I still did not even know what was wrong with it yet. They ended up doing what they said was a full diagnostic on the vehicle (which cost me almost $200) came back to me and started off by telling me...
Oil burning off for no reason and the coming system not worming properly
Are the super boost on my vehicle is not working and I have took in it to the shop and got a Netflix and they say the boost is brand new, but the valves were exchanged out and still having check engine light stating it’s the boost in the vehicle when going above 60 it loses power and is not accelerate higher
My car is continuously stuttering while driving on the highway and on neighborhood roads/when at the light. I have attempted to get help and am told that it is the turbocharge and that the turbocharge consistently goes out on the vehicle that I own (2017 chevy trax). I do not understand why I can't get it fixed if they are saying they know what it is and that it is something that is happening so often that they know about it. I live in a city and people are always driving too close and too fast. I do not want to die in this car because my turbocharge goes out while I'm on the highway and I can't maneuver fast enough. This has been going on for several months now and no one is able or willing to help.
Keep getting service stabilitrak
I DROVE MY TRAX YESTERDAY WITH NO PROBLEMS WHATSOEVER, THIS MORNING I GET INTO MY VEHICLE AT HOME, START THE CAR AND WITHIN TWO MINUTES, ITS FULL OF SMOKE COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD, THE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND THE FRONT OF THE TRAX STARTS MAKING HORRIBLE NOISES AND SHAKING. I TURN THE CAR OFF AND LET IT SIT FOR A FEW MINUTES, TRY TO START IT UP AGAIN AND IT WILL NOT TURN OVER. THERE ARE NO FLUIDS ON THE GROUND, NO WIRING THAT I COULD SEE UNDONE, NOT SURE ON WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. I DO HAVE IT BEING TOWED TO A CERTIFIED DEALERSHIP TO GET IT LOOKED AT AND PRAYING FIXED.
