Any known major issues with these vehicles?
I unfortunately may be able to purchase my mother in laws vehicle (unfortunate in that it is due to severe health issues and she can no longer drive).
It is a 2019 Chevy Trax that she bought new in 2019, and owes around $10,000 on it.
While I don't need another vehicle, my truck is getting old and I just don't use it as a truck much (and don't drive much regardless, I use my motorcycle for most of my transportation needs), and for the price (I would just take over payments) it seems a deal, especially in this economy. Plus I am sure I could sell my truck and cover half the cost of the vehicle.
I surprisingly fit well in the vehicle for it's size, and would probably do everything I need a vehicle for.
It seems I have read there are some issues with the turbo in this engine? Was that just earlier models, or is it an ongoing issue? Or is it just a matter of using a good oil and changing regularly.
Same for some suspension issues, seems it was earlier models that had problems.
The one big thing about this is the vehicle only has 1,200 miles total on it.
Literally an "old lady drove it to and from church", but not church, just to and from the store.
The oil has never been changed on it though. I know at 18 months I reset the oil life monitor (it had <500 miles on it at that time, with 300 of it being all highway when she first bought it) without changing the oil, and the oil life is at 0% right now.
