Engine stalls while driving by model year
What owners say
Vehicle shuts off while driving check engine light and traction light turn on.. sometimes starts shaking really bad... also decelerates while driving.. incidents have occurred multiple times within the last 4 months
A week after the purchase, the car started to stall while driving and the AC went out. The dealer replaced the air compressor. About a few weeks later, the vehicle stopped wouldn't start. I took it back to the dealer and they claimed to have taken it to another repair shop and they deemed it an electrical issue. They claimed to have fixed it. I got the vehicle back and the very next day it started to smoke while driving and the AC went out again.
I was driving on the interstate at 60 miles per hour. The car jarred forward , made a popping sound and lost power and the engine speed dropped. I got off the interstate the car shut down and would not go. The stability trac came on the dash as well as the check engine light. I turned the car off for about 15 seconds and the car started and I drove home. I looked this up on youtube and found out the car does not keep a memory of the code the car throws when this happen. After the car sits all night it "resets" itself and the engine light goes off. This is the third time this has happened and I was lucky it did not stall in the middle of the interstate . This is a huge safe issue I haul my child and granddaughter in this vehicle. This is a serious safety issue and chevy knows about it. Get it fixed, do a recall.

At 41,000 miles march 2018 after getting gas noticed vehicle stalled and would take several attempts to crank
Vehicle has intermittent electrical and ignition switch issues. It frequently will not start following multiple attempts at turning the ignition key, and has actually stalled in moving traffic while my wife and child were driving, a clear safety issue. Dealership has twice had vehicle for 4-5 days and indicated no trouble found both times. Dealership has provided no assistance in contacting gm (joe lunghamer chevrolet, waterford mi). We have video of parked vehicle not turning over in garage following multiple attempts at turning the ignition, which would appear to be an ignition switch or electrical defect. Vehicle has on occasion it has stalled shortly after getting underway, also a safety concern if pulling out into moving traffic. Dealership has returned vehicle to us without repair
