“Captiva will stutter and stall up curved hills at 2000rpm in dangerous unexpected places. Will not throw a code!!! In eco mode and automatic during the incidents. Took out of eco mode and raised to 3000rpm to pull up the hill. Gauges flat lined several times during the incidents.”

NHTSA complaint #11123915, filed 2018-09, 60,000 miles

“The Chevy Captiva I have has been in multiple shops and NOBODY knows why it randomly has electrical problems and all the locks go on and off while driving and the RPM speeds up and slows down all by itself. The engine and transmission has been replaced among other things in the vehicle. This is a hazard to myself and anybody on the road. It has been to multiple mechanics in my city and not one person can figure out why the car does this. The engine misfires while driving and I’ve almost been in multiple wrecks because the car genuinely has a mind of its own! …”
