Leased a 4 cylinder as was not sure I would like it and the lease cost was excellent for 12,000 miles per year. Overall the vehicle is smooth, stops as predicted, and very quiet. I did not think I would like the center console with all the buttons but found just the opposite, as all the buttons are easy to understand and reach. Using a touch screen in a car can be difficult and dangerous as it takes your eyes off the road to long. Hence I use the buttons and really like the back button to return to the previous screen, just like a computer. The seats are comfortable on long trips and the vehicle rides nice. It is a SUV so the handling is just normal. Engine does not have a lot of pick up but the trade off is very good gas mileage. The chevy My Link is excellent and even read my text messages. Trunk area is not large but put down the seats and it has plenty of room to move furniture..... I would like to see a turbo in this vehicle as it would improve performance. Not sure Chevy will do this as it is their base brand. If they did I would consider buying one, not lease. I did drive a 6 cylinder GMC version and it was horrible. The one thing I don't like is the exterior styling. It is pleasant but very boxy. I will probably lease this again if the lease is a great price. Not sure the long term trade in or sale value is good enough to buy it.

Turning Off Problem

Ok out of sympathy for everyone with the 'car just shuts off' problem -this is a simple problem with a simple fix. Cause: the air intake gets oil or distillate residue in the intake. This causes the ignition computer to throw an 'out of bound' for intake air quality. No combustion solution -no instructions for fuel/air mixture. So the vehicle shuts off. My '05 Trailblazer did this. Solution: remove the air intake to expose the brass 'butterfly valve' of the air intake. Look for brown residue around the intake infront of the valve. This is confirmation of the 'bad air' issue. Take carb cleaning spray. Start the engine. At idle have someone rev the engine a little (1500rpm) and spray all. around the intake. If the engine stalls, just restart and continue. Do the carb spray + paper towel wiping until the valve and intake are clean. Done. Repeat next time it happens. I usually get about 50K miles between cleanings. Good luck, have fun, great vehicles imo.

ENGINE PROBLEM

On my 2015 I only had 36,500 miles on my car and have had major problems with it. First I started hearing a noise from the engine dealer couldnt find the noise. I checked the oil and the car had no oil in it.I took it in and they redid the oil. A week later I was driving on the freeway and I lost speed. I could not go over 10 miles. I bearly made it home. Ive always had problem with this SUV with pick up speeds.It would never pick up speed on the freeway. And gas milage with eco boost does nothing for the car.Now my car sets at the dealer with transmission problems. Would I get another GM car this was my first . I cant say I would.
