Well my experience started off great from the very beginning. I purchased my vehicle from Mills Chevrolet in Davenport Iowa, the sales representative that helped me was absolutely amazing and did everything in her power to get me exactly what I needed so I would like to thank Valarie Lawton, and everyone else at mills first of all. When it comes to the car itself I love the features it comes with as far as OnStar, and Chevy MyLink stereo system, along with the touch screen head unit that came with it. Being a grandma with grandkids the amount of room in the vehicle is more then enough! The hatchback is also very convenient. I haven't had to use the 4WD yet but the fact that this vehicle has that feature is very comforting. Overall this is hands down the best vehicle I have owned could not be more happy with my purchase!

My wife recently was in a horrific accident in our new Trax. She has told everyone that all airbags deployed and, had it not been for it's high safety rating, she may not be alive. The first responders said they couldn't believe she lived through it. We are already shopping for a new one. We got OnStar as well and they called her through the disabled car immediate after the car got hit. We are a big big fan and LOVED our Trax.

Pros and Cons - Where is the armrest?

All in all, GM built useful but unreliable vehicle and forgot to put in an armrest. Pros: Standard spare tire. Excellent crash test with 10 airbags for protection. Overall combined miles per gallon = 31.9 with conservative driving. Great traction on snow, ice and wet roads. Great braking. Has plenty of storage and cargo space. Cons: Lack of heated mirrors makes driving in sleet, fog or rain dangerous. Tiny armrest makes driving over 15 minutes uncomfortable. Weak headlights. All vehicles should include heated side mirrors standard for safety. Backup cameras are great until they get dirty. The armrest is a miniature decorative item with no actual function. This vehicle is miserable to drive, and easy to park. Fit and finish is ?. I would not purchase any car without heated outside mirrors due to safety concerns. Update: After about 40,000 miles this car begins to fall apart. Oil coolant pump replaced with second failure driving away from service department after it was supposedly repaired (dealer mistake). Replaced front struts, leaking gasket repair, purge valve replaced, heater temp dial control repair ($600), ignition coil replaced by dealer (I think this was a mistake and was not needed because the car failed when driving away from the dealer and it needed new spark plugs). Dealers are good at providing faulty and unnecessary repairs. Took it in for an oil change and drove away with burning, smoking leaking gasket. I suspected the dealer tampered with the car. This car will last for about the length of the warranty if you are lucky. It has also become very drafty and loud over time. After the oil coolant pump failed, gasket leak and other oil leaks, I gave up on it. I traded it in for a Toyota.

Prior to owning my Trax I had a pontiac Vibe that was totaled when I hit a deer with it. I've been looking at getting a Trax since they came out in 2016. I bought my Trax a week ago and I'm in LOVE with it!!!! It handles great and I have no blind spots. I love sitting up higher than I did in my Vibe. My 2016 Trax had less than 8,000 miles on it so it is just a baby yet and I'm looking forward to having it for a long time and continuing to be happy with it! My Trax has all of the features that I wanted in a new vehicle. I even added weather tech floor mats. When it comes time to turn it in as long as Chevy continues to make the Trax I will purchase a new one!!!!
