Chevrolet Sonic Usados en Venta

This has been a wonderful car. I do a lot of driving, and my Chevy Sonic has performed better than I had hoped. It's a Hatchback, 2013 model. Even though it's only two years old, I have put 150,000 miles on it already, and expect to his 200,000 sometime in the middle of next year. This car has gone all of those miles with no rattles, no maintenance problems, and is performing like it did when I drove off the lot. I get excellent gas mileage (38 miles per gallon). It runs off of the less expensive fuel, and I have been more than pleased with it. I could not ask for a better little car. The storage room at first bothered me, but I learned quickly that I can fold down the seats and I can get just about anything in there. I even haul my push mower around in my car from one house to another. It has been GREAT!

I really like this car, for the most part. It drives smoothly and had a good amount of space for a small car. It also gets good gas mileage, and has a digital display which actually tells you how many miles you have until empty, which adjusts automatically based on your driving habits (i.e., if you use it in a city, primarily drive on highways, etc.). However, I have had a lot of problems with the tires on this car, and the originals had to be replaced due to factory defect shortly after I bought the car. My tire pressure light comes on every couples of months, but sometimes I'll take the car in to get the tires looked at and there's nothing wrong with them, so probably it's just a problem with the computer system in the car. In the long run, it doesn't bother me much. A turbine in my transmission got recalled about a year and a half after I bought the car, which was kind of scary, but of course Chevy fixed it for free, although it took several days. I've driven this car across the country twice, and had no problems with it making such a long journey. I even managed to fit all of my belongings in it, which you wouldn't expect by looking at it. I have noticed that driving it can be a bit of a pain if you're a taller person. My father, who is over 6 feet tall, had to drive it once and it was a tight fit for him, but other than that, I really like owning a Sonic. I wish the monthly payments were less, but that's my fault for not making a bigger down payment.

When I bought my sonic (hatchback) I loved the look of it. It has a tiny 1.4L engine with a turbo that makes plenty of power, and the manual transmission adds to the fun. The interior is relatively spacious and comfortable, and I manage to get around 30mpg city driving. The car also has pretty good handling and braking, and is all around fun to drive. Now the downside….the car has an inherent design flaw. When shifting from 1 to 2 under hard acceleration, the transmission grinds and does not want to go into gear. This is a MAJOR problem when more speed is needed, such as when pulling onto the highway. I’ve used special transmission oil, and talked to other Sonic owners from around the country. This is apparently a common problem, and does not resolve even when the transmission is replaced. It is apparently an inherent design flaw with these vehicle’s manual transmissions. It is for this reason that I cannot recommend this car, and would not buy it again. I’m essentially stuck with a lemon of a transmission in an otherwise fun car. Also, the traction control system is extremely overbearing and robs the car of all power as soon as it senses any wheel spin. This is especially annoying when making a turn into traffic where your wheel slips slightly and you need to accelerate.
