Leaving Chevy

After 45 years of Chevy/Cadillac products, I am done.

I pay for a lot of expensive electronic hardware in my Chevys and my Cadillac, only for GM to make me pay for the services that my hardware runs. Except for Bluetooth phone, I will no longer be able to control my phone apps while driving. Navigation and other services will subset into revenue streams for what I already have.

I had enough rage over Chevy offering a phone app, only to dumb it down after an initial period, unless I pay, except for revenue reminders for service, accessories or a new car.

My life tracks my automobile purchases... From my first Astro van to haul kids with, to my cool technology Volt to my luxury Cadillac, and all the products in between, I showed more loyalty to the brand than GM showed to me, the customer.

I have a lot of options for my next SUV, and many of those don't require subscriptions for basic interconnect luxury.

Chevy/GM.. you totally missed the customer on this.

2 years in with my 24 WT and I'm still just as happy as the day I brought her home.

Corvette ZO6 + SSR

My Blazer was due for inspection and an oil change, and I was surprised to find a brand new ZO6 in the showroom. It's also 10K off MSRP for anyone looking to drop $140,000 😄

Even more surprising was the 2004 SSR right beside it. A very divisive vehicle to be sure, but I've always liked them. Amazing condition for its age too.

Is this something new? I’ve had my Chevy for two years and never had to pay extra.

For things like remote start, lock and unlock. Is this some new subscription service?

2025 Chevy traverse engine leak

Besides electrical , breaking and data connect connectivity issues I have a second leak to repair on the traverse. This would be the second time I take it to the dealer in Northridge to address the leak.
I notice that the reservoir was empty again and the AC was blowing hot air in 90° weather. Unfortunately, my family, including my young kids had to endure high temperatures in the vehicle due to this leak.

Got my car back from dealership after oil leak repair residue or leaking again?

I have a 2024 Chevy Blazer with about 20k miles. The dealership fixed an oil leak and cleaned the whole engine. I picked the car up Friday and there were no leaks Friday, Saturday, or Sunday. Then this morning I noticed this underneath the car.

Does this look like leftover residue from the engine cleaning or does it look like it’s leaking again?

1975 Chevrolet Malibu Build - Should I Buy This?

Hoping to reach more specifically mechanically inclined people, but I figured there would be nice input here for anyone anyways. I’ve always had faster newer cars, Audi S6, Jaguar F Type R, but they’ve been 2017+ and I’m looking at this 1975 Chevy Malibu that’s been basically built all the way. Summit Racing 540 BBC engine, built 700R4 trans, 4.10 gear, blah blah blah. Everything but the frame/guts.

It wouldn’t be a daily per se but it certainly wouldn’t collect dust. Would do some interstate cruising probably 3-4 times a week. Maybe 7.5K miles a year.

Guy is asking $25k, which feels suspiciously cheap given the parts. Anyways, here’s some pics. Open to any and all input on if this build looks as good as it does to my inexperienced eyes, and if it would serve the right purpose.

owners manual pride?

We just bought a 2026 Trax and I have to say the owners manual looks like crap! It is printed SO LIGHTLY, it's like they were running out of ink. You can barely tell waht the greyscale images are. My 2023 Maibu manual was nothing like this. Pretty shitty, what happened to Chevy Pride?

Smog O2 sensor

The O2 sensor is the only “not ready.” Everything else is good. Was told to do the drive cycle but there’s so many variations of it. I’ve also driven it now 3 days in a row on the freeway at 55-65 for about 30 miles each time.

WHAT ARE THE CORRECT STEPS TO PASS?!

Thank you kindly

Chevrolet software update caused transmission shift changes

Chevy spark 2020 - I don’t know if I should post this on the onstar subreddit or the Chevy one but - onstar pushed an update last night and now my cars cvt shifting has dramatically changed. i think now the lower gear stays lower for longer. I’m struggling to explain this, but it’s like I need more gas to shift it to a higher gear??? anyone else know experienced this before? can I revert it?

Dead ac with stop leak, need options

Posting for a friend, will share the link with her so she can be the one replying to comments.

My 2015 Chevy Tahoe a/c stopped working and multiple shops stated they won’t touch it because they found stop leak in the system. What can I do?

There really isnt any other details. literally everyone just says that it will break their machine and they cant help.
