GENERAL MOTORS › Timing belt

Rating 4.5

Visible wear:

The GM wet timing belt in the Trax is likely HNBR. GM learned from Ford's mistakes, engineering dexos oil to be compatible and provide cooling. The 1.2L engine has been in use 5 years with no widespread belt-related failures documented. GM's approach is holistic, treating oil as an active component, and they expect the belt to last 150,000 miles.

Pros: no widespread failures, learned from mistakes, holistic design, 150,000 mile interval

Cons: requires specific oil

Vehicle: Chevrolet

Mileage: 241401 km

Rating 4.5

They see plenty of use in europe, another thing where maintenance is key. Haven't seen much as far as gm having issues. Don't think they'd be putting 15 year service intervals if they weren't confident they wouldn't be sued.

Pros: plenty of use in Europe, no GM issues, 15 year service interval

Cons: maintenance is key

Vehicle: Chevrolet
