Since it was first released back in 2013, the Chevrolet Trax has become a staple of Chevy's range. Bringing all the power and comfort of an SUV but in a compact size, the car was a huge success, and every generation has brought new features and innovations that have kept it fresh in a modern and ever-changing world. Now there's a new 2022 Chevy Trax, and it comes with tons of impressive features. more Massive Cargo Hold For such a small car, you would never expect that the new Chevy Trax could take almost anything you try to fit in it. But, with over 48 cubic feet of space in the cargo hold - one of the biggest in its class - you'll be able to fit a lot more than you would think when you see it from outside. Versatility is key in modern cars, and so the new Chevy Trax features 60/40 split-folding rear seats that give you more freedom and control over how your car is set up. Never again will you have to choose between taking passengers or luggage, simply split and fold the seats and you'll easily be able to fit your whole family and all your gear for a week away. Impressive Modern Safety Features The new Chevy Trax has scored 5 stars in its crash test rating due to the strength of its solid steel safety cage and combination of 10 airbags fitted around the car to keep you in place. This is the highest rating a car can receive in a crash test, so you know you and your family will be as safe as possible in the event of a crash. All of this - and rear cameras and parking sensors - comes as standard with all models. If you want an extra level of safety, you can also opt for the available blind-spot detector which alerts you to traffic in your blind spot, so you'll never need to rely on your passenger again. Another optional extra is the rear cross-traffic alert - a system designed to warn you of traffic coming from either direction when you are backing out of your driveway. Smart Phone Compatibility and Wi-Fi Hotspot Having your car and your smartphone integrated makes for a much easier driving experience, so the new Chevy Trax is designed to be compatible with both Apple Carplay and Android Auto systems, meaning you can easily control everything in your car with your voice, and with a built-in Wi-Fi hotspot, you'll have internet connection everywhere you go. The new Chevrolet Trax is a great car with loads of incredible features that make it enjoyable to drive, convenient, and also safe for the whole family. These are just a few reasons car lovers around the country so highly talk about this car.

Your Chevy's alternator produces the electrical power that runs the various components in your car. The power that's generated is also used to recharge your car's battery. The alternator can, however, suffer damage or failure. If the alternator fails, your car will lose its power generator, and the battery will fail soon afterward. If you need an alternator repair, your Chevy dealer can help you. more Damaged Wiring The electrically generated by your alternator has to be transported to your car's devices, and this requires a network of wiring. Wires and cables travel from the alternator to all of your car's systems. These wires have plastic and rubber coatings to protect them against the harsh environment in your engine. Wiring can, however, still suffer damage. If the wiring to a component is damaged, that component will fail, although your alternator will continue to try and supply power to the component. As more power is transmitted through the damaged wiring, the wiring will heat up, and the plastic covering can burn. Our technicians can repair and replace the damaged wiring. Hot Metal Smell As your alternator gets older, it wears down and becomes less capable of producing power. The reduced power from the alternator causes a problem, as your car's systems have a steady demand for electricity. To try and compensate for the reduced power, your alternator will work harder. It does this by speeding up the work of the stator. The stator in your alternator is a collection of magnets bound in copper wiring that produces electricity as it spins. The stator will spin faster than it should to try and produce more electricity, but as it does so it will heat up. The alternator bearings and other components will heat up too, and produce a hot metal smell. If your alternator is overheating, it's on the way to failure, and we can replace it. Starting Difficulties When you turn the key, your battery sends an electrical charge to the starter solenoid. This electrical charge uses a large amount of battery power. The battery power used will, under normal circumstances, be replenished as soon as your alternator kicks in. If your engine doesn't immediately start, but you hear the sound of your engine trying to crank, there's an electrical system problem. The problem causing the slow cranking could be a battery fault or an alternator fault. If your battery is weak due to age or damage, it may not be able to provide the power to start the engine. A damaged alternator, on the other hand, could be failing to recharge your battery. The lack of recharging will make it difficult for your battery to summon enough power to start your engine immediately. If your alternator is wearing out, it will always give signs that something is wrong. If you're worried about your alternator or would like to get it tested, call our service department at James Martin Chevrolet Detroit.   Image via Pixabay

Your car's engine is a hot place. Without a cooling system, your engine would overheat. When the temperature gets too high, coolant is pumped through the cooling system. This liquid absorbs the dangerous heat in your engine and transfers it to the radiator, where it's cooled. A good radiator is essential for controlling your engine's temperature. Mechanical parts can get damaged, and you may need a radiator repair. As your Chevy dealer, our technicians are here to help you. Broken Thermal Switch When the hot coolant enters your radiator, it passes into a series of thin fin-like tubes. Air flows through the radiator grille, where it blows over the tubes. The flow of cool air removes the heat from the coolant. Once the coolant has cooled enough, it flows out of the radiator and is cycled back through the cooling system. When you're stuck in gridlock, or in any situation where your engine is running, but your car isn't moving, airflow through the grill is very limited. Your radiator has a fan for that eventuality. The radiator has a fan attached behind it. This fan switches on when the temperature from the coolant in the tubes rises. This fan blows across the tubes from behind and pushes the hot air out through the grille. The thermal switch controls the fan. If this switch breaks, the fan won't activate. The coolant in the tubes will get hotter, and your engine can overheat. We can't repair a damaged fan we would have to replace the radiator. Damaged Water Pump The water pump's purpose is to pump the coolant through the cooling system. When the engine temperature rises over 180F, coolant is released into the system. A signal is sent to the pump, which then pushes the coolant through the cooling system. If the water pump is damaged, the coolant will still be released, but it won't go anywhere. Without a working pump, the coolant won't be about to absorb the heat and take it to the radiator for cooling. If the heat that's already present in your engine isn't removed, its presence will cause the temperature to rise even further. Our technicians will test the pump and replace it with a new OEM one if it's damaged. Leaking Coolant Coolant is pink, yellow, or green, and it's a mix of antifreeze and water. As we've seen, this liquid absorbs the heat from the engine and then transports it to the radiator for cooling. A cooling leak will reduce the pressure in the system, and it will also increase the engine temperature. Your engine will get hotter the more coolant is lost. Fortunately, the coolant is easy to see due to its color. If you see any of this liquid under your car, it's time to come in and have your radiator checked. If your engine's temperature seems to be rising for no apparent reason, call us immediately at James Martin Chevrolet Detroit.
