The Buick and Chevy share the same powertrain but the latter’s heavier curb weight does not translate well in the accelerations.Ĭhevrolet has been very thoughtful in not providing a massive engine power and that contributed to a very impressive fuel economy considering it has a turbocharged engine. The Kia is the most underpowered car in the competition. In terms of the raw engine power and accelerations, the Jeep does quite a good job but the Chevy is not far away. It does 0-60 mph in 9 seconds and a standing quarter-mile in 16.8 seconds. In terms of straight-line accelerations, the Trax does a decent job and performance is what we cannot expect from the segment. The engine is very refined and can hold higher speeds without breaking the power and also offer good fuel economy. On the highways, the transmission system does not cooperate properly and sometimes delays shifts. The transmission system acts sluggish in sudden accelerations but has adequate power for city drives. There is an optional all-wheel-drive system that can be upgraded by throwing some extra cash. This engine is mated to a 6-speed shiftable automatic and comes with a frontal-wheel drivetrain as standard. Powering the 2015 Chevrolet Trax is a 1.4-liter turbocharged inline 4 petrol engine that puts out 138 horses and 148 pound-feet of maximum torque. You can go for the FWD variant if you don’t need the AWD for your specific requirements. It also gives you Cruise Control as a standard which will be helpful for highway driving. Starting at $22,445, it is a great buy over the standard variant.

Power-adjustable lumbar support for the driver seatĪs the LT trim has a few added features along with the standard ones, it is the best trim that we recommend at that price point. The LTZ trim sports some posh interior features that enhance the experience to another level. As standard, the LS trim packs decent specs for the price and is loaded with safety features that are uncommon in the competition, like a post-collision safety system, stability control, etc. The price tag starts from $20,120 and goes up to $25,030 for the top-of-the-line LTZ trim. All three trims come with a front-wheel drivetrain as standard and can be updated for an all-wheel-drive experience for an extra $1,500. This exact problem has been reported by others on the web site and other sites.The 2015 Trax is available in three trims- LS, LT, and LTZ. Called Dealership and vehicle was again TOWED. Could not accelerate vehicle, Check Engine light was *FLASHING*, not just solidly lit but *FLASHING*. Tried to drive it to work and had to turn around and return home as it lost power and was shaking. This time the car started idling very rough when sitting in the driveway. Not sure what rear hub bearings have to do with 'loss of power' and 'engine vibrating when idling' but it did not fix the initial reported problem as it has been experienced numerous times since. They could not replicate it but replaced the rear hub bearings as they were growling. NOTE: This same problem was reported to the Dealership within 3 weeks after we purchased the vehicle. Current problem - Vehicle will loose power, fails to accelerate, starts shaking, Check Engine light will come on, Traction Control light will come on, OnStar will send multiple notifications

Dealership replaced Turbo and Turbo pipe due to crack in pipe. I reported it again when our Trax was just towed back to the Dealership for another problem. GM / Dealership won't recognize problem nor fix yet others have experienced that same problem. Oil smell when engine is hot that comes through the A/C or Defroster when running Others have reported this exact same issue that resulted in accidents. That was less than 2 months ago and brakes have been working OK since that time.

In our case, dealership replaced 'Brake Vacuum Switch' but claimed this was not a warranty item (normal wear and tear) so required to pay full price for repairs. We have been lucky that the issues we have encountered have not resulted in an accident but others experiencing these problems have not been so lucky.īrakes fail - Press on pedal and it goes to the floor. There are *Numerous* complaints filed on … the website with many customers experiencing the exact same issues that we have and I encourage everyone to review those complaints before purchasing this vehicle. The last two times it had to be towed backed to the Dealership. Purchased this car used in Jan 2019 with only 60K miles on it and have had to take it in 5 times in 7 months with *major* issues. It amazes me to see all these 4 and 5 star reviews as those that have can consider themselves extremely lucky that they have not encountered problems.
