I have a 2018 Trax with 39,000 miles. It’s 16 months old. AC compressor is bad. The dealership wanted $1600 to fix. No thanks. I’ll buy a Hyundai next time. GM doesn’t seem to think very highly of it’s components if they will not warranty a part 3000 miles out of warranty. Avoid at all cost. Update: the same thing happened to my wife’s Equinox. I will walk before I buy another GM product.

The beetle was way faster with 170 HP than my 2019 Trax, way more responsive but those are things I don't miss at all, the trax has better driving position much better equipment super soft suspension the only thing I miss of my Beetle was the CD but now im getting use to Spotify the entertainment in LT trax is awesome the phone works perfect with the wheel controls bigger space in the trunk the same 18" wheels very happy and im driving chevy no honda or toyota that's a plus I I try the volkswagen Tiguan $24,000 first , about the same price car I didnt get the credit lots and lots of papers they ask for, in chevy I get the credit same day with no problems at the end the car is no that fast a litle chipper $19,000 better equipped the entertainment in volkswagen is pretty bad .. I save some money and happy.. now my brand is chevy no more Volkswagen EVER !!

Love my Trax

I've have the 2019 Chevy Trax. I had it for 4 years now and I love it as much today as I did on day one. It's not too big and it's not too small. It fits 4 comfortable 5 if 3 are on the smaller side. Head room is fine for me I'm 5'7". I require a minimum of a 41" leg room for driving and I fit quite comfortably. I can't speak on rear seating as I don't use them that said I have never received any complaints. The gas mileage is good. The on board entertainment and convenience options are wonderful period period there were a few hiccups in the beginning, however the dealership fix those. I enjoy the safety and stability I've had so far simply by keeping up with routine maintenance.

My Trax has served me well

Compact design, I have the AWD Premier which is great for Chicago winters. I have all the bells and whistles which I appreciate. Heated seats are great. I like the Apple car play set up, leather seats. Buying out my lease this week. One issue was a draft from driver side door and a steering whee that pulls to the right.

Chevy Trax's is packed full of amazing things. Great technology, smooth ride, plenty of space for the size SUV that it is. Plenty of room to fit my three kids in the back seat. I am definitely glad I choose the 2019 Chevy Trax.

Hostile Ergonomics

This car may have a bumpy and jerky ride thanks to a transmission that doesn't know what gear to select, but the bad news is that the Chevy Trax is literally painful to drive. The ergonomics are the most dreadful I've ever experienced. I'm 5'9" tall, and when I'm sitting comfortably in the driver's seat, (I use the word "comfortably" with a grain of salt as the seat is neither supportive nor well-bolstered) the screen isn't quite out of reach, but I do have to stretch - or lean - just enough that it's very annoying to reach the infotainment system. The sun visors are far too high to cover my eyes at all in front, and when I swing it to the side in case the sun is shining in through the driver's side door window, the visor doesn't even reach my face. And of course, it doesn't slide. Chevy may as well not have even included it. But the fun doesn't end there. The center console blocks my knee perfectly, and it's unpadded, hard plastic construction guarantees discomfort every time my knee hits it, which is every time I drive. In addition, the armrest feels like it's trying to slip between my ribs when it's down. It's far too close to my body to comfortably rest my arm on it, and too narrow to be comfortable, even if I could. I suppose I could go on, but I'll just finish with this: The rearview camera's resolution looks like 90's era web cam

Payed $30,000 for a all wheel drive LT Redline. Car has been in the shop total time about 5 weeks in 10 months since I bought it. Has a recall already, that was repaired numerous warranty items have already been repaired, seat has been repaired or replaced, driver side door hinges have been replaced because the door collapsed, electronic throttle body system has been replaced, rear liftgate strut has been replaced, liftgate cover has failed it has been repaired, map light console cover doesn't stay on correct and has been repaired but never in the correct way so now it falls apart every so often. Car had damage at the dealership prior to being sold and I found this out after I bought it you're still not fixing that and had to get general motors involved and the owner of the dealership. Performance-wise this car has no power whatsoever it gets 24.6 miles to the gallon that's the best I've ever could get. Handling is horrible has excessive body roll and body flex,ride quality is extremely bad considering, rear suspension is not fully independent at all. I was told that it was by the salesman. I was also told by the salesman that this has leather, it has leatherette, that's not leather. Extremely buzzy engine and transmission slips and does not engage properly, has issues sometimes shifting, struggles to get up the highway speed from an on-ramp that is uphill. This is the first SUV I bought as an entry-level SUV .I paid $30,000 plus for this vehicle the car was solid for the first three to five thousand miles it now has about 14,000 miles on it and it is a rough riding car that makes a lot of noise and handles horribly now. I plan on getting rid of this vehicle as soon as possible and I plan on not buying a another Chevrolet ever.
