My review after 162,000 miles and 2.5 years

Ok first off, was used as a company vehicle, explains the amount of miles. A complete and total GM failure. This vehicle pros: ok suspension, easy to maneuver. That is it. Engine, broken piston ring at 69,000, engine rebuild, air conditioning problems, fixed promptly. Drivers seat was the worst i have ever had, 2 inches of foam and cardboard construction. was replaced under warranty, wore out again after 2 months. Issue is when the foam gives out, you end up sitting on a metal bar on seat bottom. Had to purchase a bariatric pillow so my leg wouldn't hurt. Now at 161000, the turbo is out, instead of 138hp, about maybe 100. Thank goodness i have a different vehicle now, it could have been a pretty decent car, way too cheap. Oh did I mention the base model does not even have factory cruise!
Love My Trax

It's a zippy little car that gets about 26 mile per gallon, it didn't come with a CD player but then maybe cars just don't have that anymore. It's a nice little car with a nice backup view/camera. Not too many bells or whistles, but drives nice, I've had it for a couple of weeks and want to own it for 8 years at least so I will see how it stands up!

I saw this title from a review when I was researching the Trax. I ended up buying and have owned it almost two years now. It still makes me happy. I love this little SUV. Handles great in the snow too.

This is great everyday vehicle for mixed city and highway conditions. The SUV is small and handles like a sedan which makes it fun and easy to drive. Steering is spot on and visibility out the front is great. I am 5'2" and can adjust the seat for a near perfect view of the hood so I get visual ques as to where I am on the road. The mirrors and large compared to the size of the Trax but give a great view. The only weird things I find are the manual mode (instead of 2nd and Low gears) which give the driver full control and a clutch-less manual shifting if desired. Manual mode seems to be a trend among auto manufacturers in newer vehicles. Another oddity is there is no way to manually lock or take it out of AWD. This is all handled by the vehicle itself. I am impressed by the automatic headlights, I never thought I would trust that technology but so far they work well.
