This Gentleman who is a Master Mechanic has to be applauded. No matter who the manufacturer is, he will always state the facts just the way they are and he does that in such a way that you can easily understand and make an informed decision. He is a one man army.

[alexkooiman]

lol he’s so polite!
“and that’s okay” translates to “and that’s not good”

[johnlangeveld]

Regarding the timing belt:

Owner's manual, page 288:
Every 150, 000 miles: Replace the timing belt, timing belt tensioner, and oil pump.

Now I need this good man to inspect my Boeing

These types of reviews/videos are the best part of your channel- Thank You

I love this guy. He seems nice, he is knowledgeable, he isn't beholden to any manufacturer, he's honest, there's no bravado, just information.

Keep up the amazing work.

[JigglesAndLaughter]

Your videos are a godsend for potential car buyers!!! We do not deserve you and your work. There are very few genuinely good people who would go out of their way to provide quality educational info for the masses for FREE.99.

When he says "that's okay, not a problem", what he really means is 'that's a problem'. Love this guy.

Greetings from Mexico! This review just nails it, in regards to the engine here in Mexico those wet belt engines are a total nightmare and a dealbreaker, over here Peugeot, Renault, Chrysler and now Chevrolet are using wet belts and those are know to have catastrophic failures, even though they claim the belts are specially designed they are not, they start deteriorating and releasing rubber material along with aramid fibers, this mixture ends up clogging the oil pick-up causing oil starvation and catastrophic engine failure, some other times the teeth on the belt separates not only progresively clogging the pick-up but also causing the timing belt to skip timing and the cherry on top is when maintained YOU HAVE TO USE OEM BELTS otherwise it's well know that if the mechanic slaps any belt, even from reputable brands they don't seem to have been properly treated to be wet belts and degrades over a few thousands of miles causing everything I mentioned above, in fact Stellantis is facing a class action lawsuit over here due to their "Puretech" wet belt engine.

"Some of the options are optional" LOVE IT!!!! Shows that this was not really scripted and that's why he's got such a great following. He tells it like it is. I truly appreciate reviews that go into the dirty details like the engine compartment and underneath. Thank you for all you do!!

I’d gladly enjoy the trade off of a slightly noisy engine with a trusty long-lasting timing chain for a quiet engine with a timing belt. And that goes double for an engine with two! timing belts.

[emilio]

I’m not even half-way through the video and I’ve already lost track of how many times Amd has said “that’s ok”.. and we know it most certainly is NOT ok! 😂

[Gearset]

All I have to say is I really love your reviews. Thank you for telling it like it is but also giving your own experienced personal takeaways as well.

[adamr-]

of ALL the Chevy Trax reviews out there (and there are a LOT) yours is the most useful. We will see how many miles I get out of mine with proper care and maintenance.

The wet-belt system is one of the biggest red flags for modern engines. Made to last the warranty period and that's about it. But that's okay.

[stevenlochner]

Small 3 cyl turbo charged engine; strike one. GDI only; strike two, Wet belts; strike three. If GM had put a naturally aspirated 1.8 or 2.0 liter 4 cyl engine in it with MPI instead of GDI this would be an attractive vehicle.

Tbh. The 1.2 puretech 3 cylinder engine which the french did is also designed to run with an internal timing belt that is oiled. And it doesn't matter if its designed to do so, because it still fails before hitting 38k miles.

I have a brand new 2024 Activ. Bought it with an extended warranty. We usually drive our second car until the warranty is done and trade so no worries on maintenance lol. This small SUV fits perfectly into our life, is great on gas, has low payment, and has really nice features.

[louiep]

Engine goes total replacement required, no rebuilds here.Thats what I’m getting from this review.
Good job sir 👍🏾

I live in the UK and most of the models featured here are not applicable. However, it is always a pleasure to watch this man. His reviews are excellent.
