2017 Chevrolet Trax

I HAVE HAD THIS HAPPEN TWICE WITH MY VEHICLE AND I NOTIFIED THE DEALER OF THIS AND NOTHING WAS DONE. TWICE NOW I HAVE BEEN DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY GOING AT A SPEED NO MORE THAN 60 BEGAN TO ACCELERATE AND HAD THE RPM SHOOT UP TO 8 AND THE MPH SHOOT DOWN TO ALMOST ZERO. I DO A SLIGHT ACCELERATION AND THE CAR COMES ALMOST TO A COMPLETE STOP LIKE THE ENGINE CUT OUT. THE FIRST TIME I DIDN'T REALLY WORRY ABOUT IT BUT IT HAS HAPPENED TWICE NOW AND COULD CAUSE A VERY SERIOUS ACCIDENT. THE CAR ALSO BEGINS TO SHAKE AFTER ABOUT 30 MINUTES OF BEING ON THIS HAPPENS WHEN I'M DRIVING AND WHILE SITTING IN THE CAR WHILE IT'S IN PARK.

FIRST PROBLEM WITH MY TRAX 2017 WAS WHEN MY ELEMENTARY SCHOOL KID PULLED THE SEAT BELT TO SNAP HER BOOSTER SEAT AND IT NEVER ROLLED BACK. STAYS STRETCHED AND DOESN'T RETRACT. I THOUGHT IT WAS NOT A BIG DEAL AND MOVED HER ON THE OTHER SIDE. YESTERDAY I GOT THE ENGINE LIGHT ON AND MY CAR JUST SLOWED DOWN FOR NO REASON. I WAS ALREADY SCARED AND WONDERING IF IT IS SAFE TO DRIVE WITH THE KIDS ON THE BACK BUT WAS ON THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD WITH NO PLACE TO PULL OVER SO I KEPT GOING BUT MY CAR WOULD NO GO OVER 30MPH. 5 MINUTES LATER IT GOT BETTER.I AM TAKING IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TOMORROW BUT ITS OVER AN HOUR AWAY AND DON'T EVEN KNOW IF I SHOULD DRIVE OR HAVE IT TOWED.

THE FEATURE ON THE CAR THAT NOTIFIES YOU THAT THE TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR IS FAILING MAY NOT BE WORKING. CURRENTLY MY TIRE PRESSURE ON MY DASHBOARD IS REPORTING THAT THE PSI ON MY RIGHT REAR TIRE IS 19 PSI. HOWEVER WHEN I PUT AN AIR GAGE TO THE TIRE ITS READING 34 OR 35 PSI. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO A TIRE SHOP SO THAT THEY CAN PUT MORE AIR AND THEY ALSO STATE THE PRESSURE IS FINE.

VEHICLE WAS AT HIGHWAY SPEED WHEN SYSTEMS BEGAN TO FAIL AND VEHICLE ABRUPTLY LOST ACCELERATION. WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES BEGAN TO APPEAR ABRUPTLY WITHOUT WARNING. RPM, AND MPH DIGITAL DIAL/ NUMBER JUMPED TO 0 AND BACK UP TO A RANDOM SPEED AND THEN BACK DOWN TO 0. ACCELERATOR PEDAL DID NOT HAVE ANY BEARING ON SPEED CONTROL. UNCONTROLLED STALLING AT HIGHWAY SPEED WITHOUT ANY WARNING. VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN OFF ACTIVE ROADWAY AT NEXT AVAILABLE EXIT AND PARKED. VEHICLE MAINTAINED ERROR CODES. DEALER CONTACTED FOR TOW. AFTER WAITING FOR TOW AND ENGINE OFF, ALL ERROR CODES CLEARED. DRIVEN TO DEALER AND CURRENTLY IN SERVICE. VEHICLE FAIRLY NEW AND REPAIR UNDER WARRANTY. PROBLEM UNCERTAIN BUT TECHNICIAN POINTED TO A GROUNDING PROBLEM. ERROR LIGHTS DURING INCIDENT: POWER STEERING WARNING LIGHT (STEADY ON), TCS/STABILITRAK WARNING LIGHT (STEADY ON) AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT (STEADY ON). PLUS, VEHICLE SERVICE MESSAGES: SERVICE POWER STEERING AND SERVICE STABILITRAK. I HAVE TAKEN PICTURES OF THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. CLUSTER ERRORS BEGAN AROUND 13:42 EST AND CLEARED AROUND 15:42 EST AFTER PARKING AND CUTTING ENGINE OFF FOR SOME TIME (MAYBE 20 MINUTES) THEN RESTARTING. ALSO, '.' IN PLACE OF 'P' IN BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER NEXT TO ODOMETER READING. ALSO, AFTER INITIALLY PARKING AND THE FIRST RESTART, POWER STEERING SEEMED COMPLETELY INACTIVE.

THIS WILL BE THE THIRD TIME IN 6 MONTHS THAT THE CAR HAS HAD TO BE TAKEN IN TO THE DEALERSHIP. IT DISPLAYS POWER STEERING ERROR, ENGINE LIGHT COME ON AND CAR WITH DROP SPEED WITH NO WARNING. IT ALSO LOSSES THE POWER STEERING. IT WILL THEN START UP FINE AND RUN, BUT THIS TIME THE ENGINE LIGHT IS REMAINING ON. HAS HAPPENED IN THE WARM AND COLD WEATHER AND AFTER A LONG DRIVE AND A SHORT DRIVE. NOT SURE WHY THERE ARE NO OTHER REPORTS OF THIS HAPPENING. IT HAS HAPPENED WHEN DRIVING AT 45 MILES AND THIS LAST TIME WHEN TRYING TO START IT TO LEAVE MY HOUSE. VERY SCARY TO HAVE YOUR CHILD DRIVING THIS TO AND FROM SCHOOL.

I HAD JUST PURCHASED MY CHEVY TRAX ON JULY 10, 2018. IT HAD 14,600 MILES ON IT. I WENT OUT TO MY GARAGE ON JULY 31, GOT INTO MY VEHICLE AND SHUT MY DRIVER'S DOOR AT WHICH TIME THE WINDOW GLASS BEHIND ME SHATTERED INTO A THOUSAND PIECES. GLASS WENT EVERYWHERE, INSIDE AND OUT. THIS HAPPENED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONERY AND NOT RUNNING.

TL* THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING . WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND SMOKE WAS SEEN COMING FROM THE HOOD. THE CONTACT STOPPED THE VEHICLE, EXITED, AND NOTICED FLAMES UNDER THE ENGINE AND FRONT TIRES. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WAS CALLED AND EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE. THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A SALVAGE YARD AND DEEMED A TOTAL LOSS. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED BY A DEALER OR INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE MANUFACTURER WAS INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 930. *TT
