What owners wrote
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 chevrolet trax. The contact stated that while on an incline with the brakes engaged, the vehicle rolled backwards without any warning. The vehicle was taken to the dealer. The technician diagnosed that the failure was due to a sleep mode program in the transmission. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The approximate failure mileage was 2,385.
While I was driving my 2015 chevy trax, the transmission got stuck in third gear. I switched to manual and it still wouldn't move out of third gear. In order to get it off the road, I had to drive it to a safe place. Sitting at a red light in drive, I took my foot off the break and the car didn't inch forward like normal. The traction control light was on so was the service engine soon light. There is only 80,000 miles on the car. The recommended mileage to service is 100,000 miles on this vehicle.
