Hello all, bought this beauty as a wreck, really don't understand why insurance wrote this one off. Must have something to do with new vehicle replacement policies. No air bags deployed and the vehicle wasn't even in an impact, it was just ditched from lost of control. I replaced driver's side headlamp assembly, driver's side mirror, driver's side fender, driver's side mudflap and lower front valance in one mornings workout. Buffed the paint and voilà! Brought it for an alignment and they didn't touch it, said it was bang on. I was lucky to get the fender and mirror of the right color.
I've since made it more mine by adding front fog lights, rear bumper protector and doing little stuff like painting the front bow-tie and rear wiper cover. This replaces my old 2007 Cobalt which was a great car and my 2011 Silverado, wish I could say it was a great vehicle but the check engine light was on more often than alarm clock.
Today I replaced all four center caps that were really corroded from last winters driving, will never happen again with me.
Nice job, looks good. If not for needing more room, we would still have our Trax. Hope you enjoy is for a long time, maybe a little tint on the front door windows next ?
Great rescue story and a really beautiful car. Looks like she's finally found a good home. Don't tell my black LT, but I think yours is one of the best looking colors available on the Trax.
Tag is the license plate I think he is referring to the license plate bracket or holder.
My car came with one I took it off, because Pennsylvania is a one license plate state.
Of course now I have 4 little holes that the dealer drilled in my bumper, but the little holes are better than that big black thing to hold the plate.
I know I have a tag holder from my Buick, but I'm not sure I have one from the trax,( I will have to look in my collection of front tag holders) if the Buick tag bracket is the same you can have that one.
Whatever it cost me to ship it is what I will take for it, I can stuff it in a padded envelope that is about the cheapest I don't think it will fit in the $5 dollar box.
Today, what's good for the goose is good for the gander. Took the egg yokes out of the Encore tail lamps too, although a bit harder to get at at least I didn't have to remove the tail lamp assembly.
I bought our Trax in 2015 used from a GM dealer about 125 miles away from our home, it had about 17,000 miles on it. In 2016 we started having rear brake issues and took it to a local GM dealer it was covered under warrant but it went back 3 times . Then in 2017 it had a couple recalls that...
Was trying to check the internet to see if anyone is having any issues with their cars not starting just out of nowhere. We bought a used 2016 Chevy Trax in October 2018 with only about 9k miles on it. Found out last winter that the vehicle sucks in snow. We've had a pretty mild winter so far...

Anybody find a good looking exhaust tip for a Trax LT? They seem to range from $10 to$300. They say crimes ones will rust away and you should get stainless. Any potential harm like increasing exhaust back pressure?
I'm in Dayton, OH. I have a 2017 Trax LT with a sunroof. It's fwd, 35,000 miles. Good so far. Had the control arm recall. One was bad, the other good. They told me up to six weeks to get parts. They gave me me in an LS loaner 2020. I was lucky, got it back in a day.
