TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 CHEVROLET TRAX. WHILE DRIVING MORE THAN 45 MPH, THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE VIBRATED VIOLENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO JOHN MILES CHEVROLET BUICK GMC (950 DOGWOOD DR SE, CONYERS, GA 30012, (678) 561-3754) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE WAS OVERHEATING AND THE ENGINE COOLANT VALVE EXTENSION, OXYGEN SENSOR, AND PASSENGER SIDE LOWER CONTROL ARM NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,999.

ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS, I WENT TO MY CHEVROLET STORE AND TOLD THEM ABOUT HOW MY GAS GAUGE WAS NOT WORKING CORRECTLY. I WOULD FILL MY TRAX UP, AND INSTEAD OF IT MOVING TO FULL, THE GAUGE STAYED AT 1/2 TANK. I NEVER KNEW WHAT THE CORRECT LEVEL OF GAS WAS IN MY VEHICLE. I EVEN TOOK PICTURES OF THE LEVELS BEFORE AND AFTER THE FILL UP, BUT THEY LAUGHED IT OFF, 3 TIMES AND SAID THERE WERE NOT ANY CODES COMING UP, SO IT WAS OKAY. THE 4TH TIME I WENT, ANOTHER COMPANY BOUGHT OUT THE PRIOR OWNER AND SAID HE HAD TO REPLACE THE MODULE. IT HAD WORKED FOR A FEW MONTHS BUT IT IS STILL DOING THE SAME THING. SO I DON'T THINK THE MODULE WAS THE ANSWER. MY CAR HAS DRIVEN VERY ROUGHLY SINCE I BOUGHT IT AND WHEN THEY DRIVE IT, I AM TOLD THEY CAN'T REPLICATE THE ISSUE AND I AM SENT HOME.

A 2017-2019 CHEVROLET TRAX RECALL WAS ISSUED THAT WILL REPAIR PROBLEMS WITH JOINTS IN THE FRONT LOWER CONTROL ARMS THAT MAY HAVE BEEN IMPROPERLY WELDED, CAUSING THE CONTROL ARMS TO SEPARATE FROM THE SUVS. I HAVE BEEN TOLD NOT TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE DUE TO SAFETY CONCERNS. THE RECALL WAS ISSUED IN APRIL SO I HAVE NOW BEEN WITHOUT A VEHICLE FOR OVER FOUR MONTHS. NEITHER A CHEVROLET DEALER NOR THE CHEVROLET HEADQUARTERS WILL DO ANYTHING TO PROVIDE A RENTAL CAR UNTIL THEY CAN DETERMINE WHEN THEY CAN REPAIR THE VEHICLE. WHAT ARE MY OPTIONS?

I STARTED THE CAR ON TUESDAY 6-18 TO GO TO WORK AND AS SOON AS I STARTED IT, THERE WAS A MESSAGE ON THE DASHBOARD SAYING TO SERVICE POWER STEERING AND THE ERROR LIGHT WAS ON. I WENT AHEAD AND DROVE TO WORK (ONLY 1 MILE AWAY) AND IT TOOK ALL THAT I HAD TO STEER IT. FIRST CHANCE THAT I GOT, I CALLED THE NEAREST DEALERSHIP AND HAD IT TOWED THERE, AT CHEVY'S EXPENSE BECAUSE THE CAR IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. WHEN THEY FINALLY HAD TIME TO LOOK AT IT, THEY SAID THAT THERE WAS AN INTERNAL ERROR IN THE POWER STEERING MODULE, THEY HAVE TO REPLACE IT, ACCORDING TO LAW OR THEIR GUIDELINES. I'VE CHECKED SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIND THE PART ANYWHERE, NO DEALERSHIPS OR ANYPLACE ELSE. HERE IT IS OVER A WEEK LATER AND THEY STILL CAN'T FIND ANYTHING. THEY DID GIVE ME A LOANER, BUT THIS IS RIDICULOUS. THEY CAN'T EVEN TELL ME HOW LONG IT MAY BE.

THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED, I WAS ENTERING THE HIGHWAY, TRYING TO MERGE WITH TRAFFIC. AS I ACCELERATED, MY ENGINE REVVED, BUT DID NOT SHIFT GEARS (AS I WAS MERGING WITH TRAFFIC WHO WERE TRAVELING AT SPEEDS OF 60 MPH AND HIGHER), LURCHED AND DROPPED DOWN TO 20 MPH (SOMEHOW DIDN'T GET REAR-ENDED). IN A 6 MONTH SPAN, THIS HAS HAPPENED 3X. THE 3RD TIME WAS ON A STRETCH OF ROAD WHERE I WAS TRAVELING ABOUT 45 MPH COMING UP ON A CAR IN THE LEFT-HAND LANE (ON A 2 LANE STREET) MAKING A LEFT-HAND TURN. NEEDED TO SWITCH LANES TO GO AROUND. INCREASED SPEED, CAR HESITATED, REVVED, LURCHED, AND NEVER REALLY SWITCHED GEARS. SOMEHOW MADE IT WITHOUT GETTING REAR-ENDED. TOOK CAR TO DEALERSHIP. DEALERSHIP SAID COMPUTER IN CAR DIDN'T REGISTER ANY OF THOSE INCIDENTS, SO IN ESSENCE THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. I FEEL LIKE I'M DRIVING A TICKING TIME BOMB. WAITING FOR IT TO JUST STOP OR DECELERATE WHILE ENTERING THE HIGHWAY AND GET ME KILLED. HOPING THAT MY CHILDREN AREN'T IN THE CAR SHOULD THAT EVER HAPPEN.
