Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“We purchased a 2017 chevy Spark with 40,000 miles on it and within the first two weeks the car will not accelerate for about 2 seconds and then will leap forward. When you come to a complete stop the engine will rev up and not go forward for about 2-3 seconds. This becomes very un safe since you can not depend on this vehicle to go forward when needed. I have taken it back to the dealer and they said there was an software upload to the transmission that should help. It did not help and I have researched that this is pretty common with these CVT transmissions. …”
