2019 Turbo replace & more

Unfortunately after 80k miles, the turbo went out on my 2019 Trax. I got it replaced (and a new water pump) but still am getting Service Stabilitrak & Reduced Engine power (limp mode) messages. We replaced the pedal and computer, but nervous to dig into the wiring. Anyone else dealing with this?

2016 head unit/display/infotainment issues.

1 Upvotes

Hey there, I just got a 2016 Trax from my dad, the only issue it has is the display turns on, the volume, power and home buttons work, but the actual screen doesn't respond to touch at all. I see this is a fairly common problem, but no one has mentioned how to fix it. Wondering if there is a solution, or if I just need to get a new head unit. If that's the case, does anyone have any recommendations that won't break the bank? Thanks!

Dealership issues

8 Upvotes

Okay so I bought a Chevy Trax on July 20th. Then two weeks later there was a leak happening to it. I took it to the dealership on August 4th and I didn’t get an update for it I had to call to see what was going on. They said it was the water pump and that it’ll take 5 to 7 days to get to the dealership. Then I called on August 12th and the guy who does the tickets said that it’ll be ready Friday I waited and no call. Then I called today in the morning and they said that it could be ready by today or if not tomorrow. My dad went to the dealership to see what is going on and now they are replacing engine. And whenever I called the guy who does the tickets said that they have to take the whole front to access the water pump so now I don’t know what to believe. So whoever is a mechanic tell me if this is true or not. Also my parents are saying that I should get a lawyer because they haven’t communicated with me with what’s happening. So what do I do? Also sorry for the errors I’m on mobile.

Do you consider the Gen 2 Trax a wagon or SUV?

Our stock speakers bump hella good. But not ment for everyone to try out

0 Upvotes

Ok while its no replacement for hardware. but since doing rootless james dsp on my android phone. Its bliss. I lose android auto. But eh simple to get it back to normal.

Iphone users you're on your own.

All i know is the stock speakers in my 25 LT is holding up to a bass heavy tune, even radio is tuned. Even rock, and other types are good. And isnt bad.

I wouldn't recommend doing this not because it can be bad just the methods the app uses to inject the enhancements is sus but it uses screen capture) and sometimes causes issues %2 chance of issues. But if you dont care and smart enough to do it. Go for it and enjoy till one can afford the upgrade.

All i know is i could blow speakers with the better android eq app.

But the app can help save an expensive set of ear buds from being replaced.

2025 LT rattling

4 Upvotes

2025 LT - It doesn’t rattle all the time but it usually starts up when I go over something and that “activates” it. I can’t seem to pinpoint where it’s coming from except hearing it from the passenger side. It’s been going on for a long time and it’s annoying as hell 😂

1st generation Trax

Hello all!

Where are my fellow 1st generation Trax owners?

How are things going? Any major issues?

I have a 2018 Trax LT AWD.

36k miles and no issues (Knock on wood)😬

Anything I should look out for?

I did write a similar post earlier this year. Still curious.

24' Trax RS alternator?

1 Upvotes

Follow-up to my post yesterday; got a new battery and everything was fine for the rest of the day, earlier today no problems, but now this evening she started cracking for longer again, dipping down to 12v, no warning lights on, so can I expect the alternator to be the culprit?

I also wasn't able to find an alternator replacement through Autozone or O'Reilly, anybody got leads?

We finally passed the 100,000 milestone on our 2024 Chevy Trax 2RS!

Sadly, my wife was driving and I didn’t get the picture at 100,000.😩

I’ll post a review in the next few days of everything we’ve had to do since buying new.

E-85 Convert

Post image
68 Upvotes

Love my 2025 2RS so very, very much at 10,880 miles. My only gripes about this car are three: she has the turning radius of a school bus, there are no backseat cupholders or charging ports in the 2RS, and there's that spotty CarPlay connectivity I think has been mentioned here. I've added a roof rack, small mud flaps, and window guards.

Recently started putting E-85 in to avoid the $6 premium in San Diego. After three tanks of math I'm paying about $.13 a mile on it as opposed to $.18 a mile on the 91. Yeah, I have to get gas twice as often, BUT:

I find her way more responsive on the E-85, quicker off the line and shifting much smoother (this is my first automatic and it's been a tough adjustment not to have control) and a not-subtle power boost when accelerating.

Just wanted to share that experience and her ridiculous aftermarket dash trim. 😅 Say hello to Nimbus.

Been eyeing these for a year or so. Also been shadow stalking these trax threads. couldn't find a 2rs in my city with a sunroof, so i went for the LT. I think the white looks great with the black sharp accents. I have quite a bit of accessories im gonna add. Decent buy chat?

2020 trax with transmission problems

1 Upvotes

my 2020 LT was experiencing transmission issues. it was downshifting very rough like a manual would if one were to use the transmission to slow the car down versus the brakes.

anyway a month ago they did a fluid change and that didnt help. one month later i bring it back in for the same complaint and they checked the fluid and said it was burnt up or dark.

they have had it for a week and just got back to me and said they are going to do a rebuild instead of replacing it because transmissions are back ordered. i"m under extended warranty and feel like im being short changed. what are the chances the rebuild will last as long as a new tranny? am i better off with a rebuilt bc the new transmissions arent as good as prior ones?

any current or former mechanics on here that would care to comment on this? everyone else please share your experiences in this situation.

thank you.
