There are 5 owner-reported visibility & wipers complaints for the 2025 Chevrolet Traxin NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
The contact owns a 2025 Chevrolet Trax. The contact stated that while driving 70 MPH, the rear window on the driver’s side, where the contact’s sister was seated, shattered unexpectedly, causing glass to fall inside and outside the vehicle. Neither an independent mechanic nor a dealer was contacted. The passenger seated in the seat nearest to the window was not injured. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer or an independent mechanic to be repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that there would not be an investigation if the vehicle was repaired. The failure mileage was 7,020.
On mornings that the temperature drops close to freezing, the nozzles for the windshield wiper fluid freeze and do not operate. Not until the car is at operating temperature does the windshield wiper nozzles work. This is especially dangerous when roads are salted and a salt coating on the windshield leaves drivers blind without fluid to remove it. It also appears that the line to the rear wiper nozzle froze and broke and windshield wiper fluid is leaking. Chevy indicated that the fluid is put in the vehicle at the factory. Either the fluid was incorrect or the design allows for the lines and nozzle to freeze.
I’m reporting a recurring issue with the windshield wiper blades on my brand-new 2025 Chevrolet Trax vehicle. The driver-side wiper blade consistently leaves streaks across the windshield, especially during rain. This significantly reduces visibility, particularly dangerous at night when glare from oncoming headlights worsens the problem. I’ve already had to replace the wiper blades multiple times in just a few months, yet the issue keeps coming back. This poses a serious safety risk, and I’m concerned that it may be a manufacturing or design defect affecting more vehicles. I am told by Chevy that I can only purchase the OEM wiper blades and I have yet to be able to find any aftermarkets that fit this car. I urge the NHTSA to investigate this issue before it leads to accidents or injuries.
Unknown. The OEM wipers have a large streak in the main field of vision on the drivers side. They only last a FEW weeks with new OEM parts. I’ve tried getting aftermarket replacement s and they don’t fit properly.
The contact owns a 2025 Chevrolet Trax. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed in hot weather less than a month after purchasing the vehicle brand new, the A/C became inoperable. The contact stated that the failure persisted. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed that the evaporator coil had failed and needed to be replaced; however, the part was on backorder. The dealer advised the contact to obtain a rental vehicle in the meantime, and that the manufacturer would reimburse the vehicle rental expenses. The contact declined and was provided a temporary vehicle. The vehicle was repaired under warranty after a month. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 1,400.
