2014 Chevrolet Captiva engine problems

“This car is a 2014 chevy captiva it has had multiple leaks that I have repaired on my own the engine gussles up gas like there's no tomorrow and then on hot days even though all liquids are filled will randomly have a check engine code and a reduced engine code amd service stabiltek system come on all at once. Now in this car I replaced the fuel pump, up and down 02 sensors the whole catalytic system front from to back and this issue still happens. Something is internally wrong with this car.and when the car decides to through these codes it makes a percolating sound like a pot of coffee is almost done brewing in the cabin of the car.”

“The contact owns a 2014 Chevrolet Captiva Sport. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle experienced a loss of power steering assist. The vehicle then lost motive power. No warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was coasted to the side of the road. Upon inspection, there was white smoke coming from the engine, and there was no engine oil on the dipstick. The contact added oil to the engine. The contact stated that the vehicle previously had an oil change; however, the engine consumed an excessive amount of oil. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 130,000.”

“My car consistently burned through oil despite getting regular oil changes and checks. The oil burned through before I was aware and the car now needs a new engine that will cost more than it’s worth”

“My car suddenly started acting funny and was not running well while i was driving, when i got to a stop sign it totally died. It was towed to a shop and was totally out of oil, my car wasn't even 1500 miles over it's last oil change. The engine was totally ruined and needed to be replaced. THis again seems to be a common problem with these engines that they just go out using all the oil in the vehicle unexpectedly.”

“The contact owns a 2014 Chevrolet Captiva. The contact stated that occasionally while his wife was stopped for either a traffic sign or traffic light, the engine would make a grinding noise.

The contact was informed that the VIN was not under recall. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 115,000.”

“WHEN TURNING THE IGNATION OFF, THE KEY WILL NOT TURN OFF, IT STAY'S IN THE OPEN POSITION KEEPING THE ELECTRICAL PART OF THE CAR FROM TURNING OFF, WHICH COULD CAUSE AN ELECTRIAL FIRE. I AM UNABLE TO REMOVE MY KEY FROM THE IGNATION, IT MAKES THE CAR BATTERY RUN DOWN, AND SOMETIMES THE WIRES SEEM TO GET HOT FROM THIS.”
