Electrical system dies unexpectedly. Stabilitrac system alert lights up and car starts shifting like crazy. All warning lights flash and door locks and dome lights start flashing. This happens even when driving on the highway. Very dangerous and needs to be addressed immediately.

2014 Chevrolet Captiva on Friday July 8th 2022, The sun visor catch on fire from the passenger seat. The reasons still are unknown. The issue could be ending in a disaster and I have to claim this problem as fast as I can

The key keeps getting stuck in the ignition once the car is off. This prevents me from being able to leave my car unattended. I was trying to go grocery shopping and couldn't because the key wouldn't come out of the ignition for me to lock the doors. 01/04/2022. The most recent time this happened before today was about 2 weeks ago 12/21/2021. I tried starting the vehicle again and turning it off and it still wouldn't allow the key to release. My husband was able to get the key out the last after several hours. We will be scheduling an appointment with service center when an appointment becomes available to have it inspected. Based on research this has been an issue with captiva's in the past.

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.

The contact owns a 2014 Chevrolet Captiva. The contact stated that the key was stuck in the ignition. There were no warning lights illuminated. The contact spoke with the local dealer and was quoted a diagnostic fee. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure however, no further assistance was provided. The approximate failure mileage was 34,000.

Key gets stuck in ignition. Lose all power WHILE DRIVING or parked! Requires a jiggle on the battery cable to restore power. Radio loses power randomly while driving. a/c shuts off. This has been happening since we bought the car in June 2021.

Key gets stuck in ignition and takes many tries to get it out, even from day one of buying it. Was informed that was a "safety" feature provided by Chevy themselves. When shutting off the vehicle, everything dies out like the battery went completely dead and car won't start again. Have to play with battery wires and fuse box before I hear the car make any noise again. Was informed by more than one mechanic that there are GM recalls for the thermal cable, battery protective cable, and starter motors, but nothing for my VIN has popped up. Have found almost 100 other complaints on multiple sites and more than a dozen reported accidents due to this issue. Car sits at almost 98,000 miles now and it will not turn over for me. Recalls should be put out for the entirety of this model because I have met 2 other people who have had the exact same problem and were informed that the dealerships have refused to acknowledge prior recall or safety information.

The contact owns a 2014 Chevrolet Captiva. The contact stated while attempting to shut-off the vehicle, the key ceased in the accessory position. The contact stated that there was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 43,000.

THE CAPTIVA SUDDENLY SHUTS DOWN RANDOMLY FOR ABSOLUTELY NO REASON. THE ISSUE WAS DIRECTED TO BE REPAIRED IN THE OTHER CHEVY VEHICLES BECAUSE THEY ISSUED A SERVICE BULLETIN HOWEVER THE CAPTIVA IS A FLEET VEHICLE WHICH MEANS THEY DIDN'T FIX THE KNOWN ISSUE OF PUTTING A FORD BATTERY SENSOR ON A CHEVY VEHICLE BECAUSE FLEET VEHICLES ARE RARELY SERVICED BY A DEALERSHIP. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND SOMEONE IS GOING TO DIE IF THEY HAVEN'T ALREADY. THIS HAPPENED TO ME LOSING ALL POWER AND COMPLETELY SHUTTING DOWN GOING 65 MPH ON THE FREEWAY WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR WITH ME. I'VE NOT DRIVEN THIS CAR SINCE AUGUST BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO DIE AND I STILL OWE ABOUT 4 YEARS OF PAYMENTS ON THIS LEMON.

ELECTRICAL POWER TO THE VEHICLE CUTS OUT RANDOMLY, CAUSING THE ENGINE TO SHUT DOWN IF DRIVING AND LOSING POWER STEERING CONTROL AND POWER BRAKES OR THE POWER PARKING BRAKE RANDOMLY ENGAGES, CREATING THE POTENTIAL FOR A DRIVING HAZARD. POWER ALSO CUTS OUT RANDOMLY WHICH CAUSES THE VEHICLE NOT TO START. DRIVER HAS TO OPEN THE HOOD AND MANUALLY MOVE THE NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE CONNECTED TO THE BATTERY, SOMETIMES MULTIPLE TIMES, IN ORDER FOR POWER TO BE RESTORED. THIS MANUAL MOVE PUTS THE PERSON IN IMMEDIATE DANGER OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK SHOULD ANYTHING CREATE A POWER ARC WHILE PERFORMING THIS MANEUVER. GM SERVICE BULLETIN #13186 DATED JUNE 2013 ADDRESSES THIS ISSUE WITH A DEFECT IN THE NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE, BUT LIMITS IT ONLY TO THE WARRANTY PERIOD ONLY OF THE NEW VEHICLE AND NOT THE VEHICLE AS A WHOLE, YET NO RECALL HAS EVER BEEN ISSUED. BASED ON COMMENTS POSTED ON THE CHEVY FORUM, THIS PROBLEM IS CONSISTENT AND WIDESPREAD ACROSS THE CHEVY CAPTIVA VEHICLES. IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME WHEN ONE OF THESE RANDOM POWER SHUTDOWNS LEADS TO A SERIOUS ACCIDENT OR DEATH. AT THE PRESENT TIME WE ARE FORCED TO REPLACE BOTH THE POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLES AT A COST OF $590.

IN JANUARY 2020 I TOOK THE CAR INTO THE SHOP AFTER HEARING NOISE FROM THE ENGINE. I HAD TO HAVE THE TIMING CHAIN REPLACED, BUT AS THEY LOOKED IT OVER THEY SAID THE ENGINE NEEDED REPLACED, DUE TO OIL LEAKING. A COUPLE WEEKS BEFORE IT WAS VERY COLD CLOSE TO 4 DEGREES AND WHILE I WAS DRIVING INTO WORK AT 6AM I HEARD A LOUD SOUND WHILE AT A RED LIGHT, IT SOUNDED LIKE A GUN SHOT. I ASSUMED IT WAS COMING FROM A NEARBY NEIGHBORHOOD. BUT TO FIND OUT MY MECHANIC SAID THAT WAS THE ENGINE FROZEN AND POPPED. HE SAID WHEN ITS COLD THAT HAPPENS TO THIS ENGINE. UNREAL! TWO WEEKS AGO, MY CAR STARTED TO SMELL LIKE IT WAS BURNING AND GAS. SO I TOOK IT IN AND THEY REPLACED THE CAT CONVERTER,EXHAUST MANIFOLD, AND LEAKING SEAL. LAST WEEK, I WENT TO UNLOCK THE DOORS WITH THE REMOTE THE REAR WIPER FLUID MOTOR STARTED AND RAN CONTINUOUSLY, TO THE POINT IT DOESN'T WORK AT ALL NOW. NOW THIS WEEK MY TRUNK WILL NOT OPEN, BOTH FRONT HEAD LIGHTS BURNT OUT, MY TRACTION CONTROL KEEPS TURNING ON/OFF, MY SPEAKERS ARE POPPING, RADIO IS CUTTING IN/OUT.

THE IGNITION SWITCH ON MY 2014 CHEVY CAPTIVA GETS STUCK AND IT DOES NOT ALLOW THE KEY TO BE REMOVED WHEN TURNING IT OFF WHEN STATIONARY. UPON PERSONAL RESEARCH IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THIS MODEL HAS HAD THIS ISSUE WITH COUNTLESS DRIVERS (TYPICALLY AT 40K-50K MILES) AND IS NOT ADDRESSED BY GM AS A RECALL OR SAFETY ISSUE. HOWEVER, WHEN THE SWITCH IS UNABLE TO BE REMOVED IT IS A SENSORY ISSUE, THE VEHICLE KEY IS ALSO ABLE TO COME OUT WHILE ON DRIVE. A SIMPLE SEARCH 'CHEVY CAPTIVA KEY STUCK' WILL RESULT IN MANY SUCH INCIDENTS.

I BOUGHT THE CAR USED AND WITHIN THE FIRST 7 DAYS WHEN I WAS LEAVING FOR WORK, THE CAR WOULDN'T START. THE LIGHTS FLICKERED 1 TIME AND THEN WENT OFF. I TURNED THE KEY BACK THINKING I HAD A BAD CRANK AND THEN TRIED TO START IT UP AGAIN, THERE WAS NO LIGHTS OR ANYTHING. TRIED TO TAKE THE KEY OUT THE IGNITION, THE KEY WOULD NOT COME OUT. AFTER PLAYING WITH THE CAR, TRYING TO JUMP IT, I LOST HOME AND WAS REACHING TO TAKE MY BADGE OUT FROM BETWEEN THE SEATS. WHEN I WAS PUSHING THE SEATS BACKWARDS, THE LIGHTS CAME BACK IN AND THE CAR STARTED. 2 DAYS LATER WHEN I GOT HOME FROM GROCERY SHOPPING, I HIT THE CLICKER TO UNLOCK THE TRUNK, IT WOULDN'T OPEN, TRIED TO UNLOCK IT FROM THE DOOR, WOULDN'T OPEN. PUT THE KEY IN THE IGNITION, CAR WOULDN'T TURN ON AND THE KEY WOULDN'T COME OUT THE IGNITION.

MY CURRENT PROBLEM IS THAT I AM NOW IN NEED OF A NEW ENGINE DUE TO THE FACT THAT THIS ENGINE, THE SAME ENGINE THAT IS IN THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT, USES AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL AND THEREFORE HAS CAUSED MOTOR DAMAGE OVER THE PAST 6 YEARS. I REGULARLY CHANGE MY OIL, BUT DIDN'T REALIZE HOW MUCH OIL THIS ENGINE GOES THROUGH IN ADDITION TO REGULAR OIL CHANGES. IT SHOULD NOT NEED A NEW ENGINE AT THIS POINT IF THE ENGINE FUNCTIONED CORRECTLY. IN ADDITION, A FEW MONTHS BACK I HAVE DIFFICULTY WITH THE CAR NOT STARTING AS IF THE BATTERY WAS DEAD. NO ELECTRICAL WOULD WORK AT ALL IN THE CAR EVEN WITH A NEW BATTERY. I WOULD HAVE TO MESS WITH THE BATTERY CONNECTIONS TO GET THE CAR TO START OR HIT THE FUSE BOX. ALSO, I HAVE HAD TIME WITH THE KEY GETTING STUCK IN THE IGNITION AND DRAINING THE BATTERY.

KEY WILL NOT COME OUT OF THE IGNITION AFTER TURNING VEHICLE OFF AND NO POWER RELATED EQUIPMENT WILL COME ON. THIS HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY AND SEEMINGLY RANDOMLY. SHIFT WON''T MOVE WHEN THIS HAPPENS AND TURNING KEY BACK INTO START POSITION DOES NOTHING. DOORS WON'T LOCK WITH KEY FOB AND NO DASH LIGHTS COME ON, OR ANYTHING. SOMETIMES PUSHING WIRES INTO NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL WILL CORRECT IT AND SOMETIMES NOT. KEY RELEASE LEVER ON STEERING COLUMN DOES NOT RELEASE THE KEY WHEN THIS HAPPENS, NOR DOES TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL TO UNLOCK IT. THIS IS AN ANNOYING ISSUE AS THERE DOESN'T SEEM TO BE ANY RELIABLE FIX FOR THIS, OR ANY RECALL, OR KNOWLEDGE ON THE PART OF THE DEALERSHIP AS TO HOW TO REMEDY THIS. THIS ISSUE MAKES THIS VEHICLE VERY UNRELIABLE AND UNSAFE, AS WELL AS COSTLY TO OWNER IN FINDING ANY PERMANENT FIX. THIS VEHICLE HAS MANY OTHER UNSATISFACTORY ISSUES AND IS VERY POORLY MADE IN GENERAL. IT'S SURPRISING THERE ARE NOT MORE RECALLS AND COMPLAINTS!

SUN, DEC 1ST, 2019 I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY IN OKC AND THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE PARKING BRAKE SENSOR LIGHT CAME ON SEVERAL TIMES THROUGH THE NIGHT. NEXT, I HAD TURNED DOWN A SIDE ROAD ABOUT TO DRIVE OVER A SPEED BUMP, WHEN THE CAR SLIPPED OUT OF 1ST GEAR ONLY ALLOWING THE MOTOR TO REV, AND IT JUST ROLLED WHILE THE INSIDE AND OUTSIDE LIGHTS BLINKED AND FLICKERED AND THE DOORS UNLOCKED THEMSELVES. ONCE I TOOK MY FOOT OFF OF THE GAS AND ALLOWED THE CAR TO ROLL A FEW MINUTES, IT ENGAGED BACK INTO DRIVE AND MY UBER RIDER ASKED ME WHAT WAS WRONG, AND I EXPLAINED, THAT IM HAVING ELECTRICAL ISSUES AND THIS IS NOT ONLY PUTTING ME AND MY WIFE IN DANGER, BUT ALL OF MY UBER PASSENGERS AS WELL.

ENGAGING THE SHIFTER AND TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL DO NOT SEND A 'SIGNAL' TO LET THE KEY RELEASE.

IN JULY, 2017, THE IGNITION KEY WOULD GET STUCK EVEN WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS IN PARK. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE IN TO GET SERVICED AT AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER THE LOCK CYLINDER WAS REPLACED. IN LATE JANUARY 2018, THE SAME ISSUE OCCURRED AND LOCK CYLINDER WAS REPLACED AGAIN. ON 29 JAN 2018, THE SAME ISSUE OCCURRED FOR A THIRD TIME ( KEY WOULD TURN TO OFF POSITION WHEN VEHICLE WAS IN PARK OR NEUTRAL. THIS TIME THE SERVICE PROVIDER STATED THAT IT WAS THE SOLENOID IN THE TRANSMISSION SNIFTER THAT WAS THE PROBLEM. THIS IS NOW A $580.00 BILL BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH THE INITIAL PROBLEM OCCURRED LAST SUMMER WHEN THE POWERTRAIN WAS UNDER WARRANTY, IT IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY NOW AND WE HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET. AFTER SOME RESEARCH THEN AND NOW, IT APPEARS THAT THIS IS BECOMING A COMMON PROBLEM WITH CAPTIVAS.

KEY GETS STUCK IN THE IGNITION. IT'S NOT READING THAT IT'S IN PARK. FROM WHAT I'VE BEEN READING ONLINE, IT'S A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL. WIRING HAS A SHORT SOMEWHERE. I'VE HAD TO CHANGE MY BREAK LIGHTS 3 TIMES AND HAD TO CHANGE MY HEAD LIGHTS 7 TIMES SINCE THE 2 YEARS I'VE HAD IT. WITH AS BEING A NEWER VEHICLE, I SHOULDN'T HAVE THIS MANY PROBLEMS.

AFTER DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND STOPPING, I PUT THE GEAR SHIFTER IN PARK AND THE KEY WILL NOT GO BACK TO THE LOCK POSITION AND RELEASE FROM THE IGNITION. I WENT TO THE CHEVROLET DEALER AND THEY REPLACED THE SOLENOID AND THE GEAR SHIFTER WHICH FIXED THE PROBLEM. THE SAID THEY WERE NOT GETTING A SIGNAL FROM THE GEAR SHIFTER TO THE SOLENOID WHICH WAS KEEPING THE KEY FROM BEING RELEASED. I ALSO FOUND A GM RECALL ARTICLE FOR THE SAME PROBLEM ON OTHER VEHICLE MODELS WHICH I AM INCLUDING.

DRIVING HOME THURS NIGHT, 1-12-2017, I SMELLED A BURNING SCENT. FIGURED IT WAS OUTSIDE IN THE AIR COMING THRU THE VENTS. NO WARNING LIGHTS WERE ON. FRI. MORNING, 1-13-2017, DRIVING TO WORK I SMELLED THE SAME ODOR & IT GOT STRONGER THE LONGER I WAS IN THE CAR. BUT AGAIN NO WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON. I PULLED THE SUN VISOR DOWN AS I DROVE, PUSHED IT OVER AGAINST THE DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW AND EXTENDED IT TO COVER THE LENGTH OF THE GLASS AS IT IS INTENDED TO DO. WHILE TURNING LEFT OFF OF A 6 LANE ROAD ONTO A PARKWAY THE VISOR MOVED TO TOUCH THE SIDE OF MY HEAD. I REACHED UP TO PUSH IT BACK AND MY LEFT HAND FINGERS TOUCHED THE BAR THAT HOLDS THE VISOR AND IT PAINFULLY BURNED MY FINGERS AS I PUSHED IT BACK TO THE WINDOW!!! STILL NO WARNING LIGHTS. TO BE SURE IT WAS THAT HOT AND NOT WANTING TO TOUCH IT AGAIN, I HELD A PLASTIC CUT UP TO THE BAR AND SMOKE APPEARED AND IT MELTED THE RIM OF THE CUP. I WAS PETRIFIED AS I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC ON A 6 LANE PARKWAY & AFRAID A FLASH FIRE WAS ABOUT TO HAPPEN NEAR MY FACE AND HEAD . GOT TO WORK & AS I AM A NURSE IMMEDIATELY TREATED THE WOUNDS/BURNS WITH SILVADENE AND A DRESSING. ASKED ONE OF MY SURGEONS WHAT TO DO AND HE SAID TAKE THE CAR IMMEDIATELY TO A CHEV DEALER AS IT MAY CATCH FIRE!!!!!!!!!!! TOOK IT IN, THEY SAW MY HAND BANDAGED UP , CHECKED THE CAR IN AND INSPECTED IT AND FOUND A SHORT IN THE WIRE FROM THE MAP LIGHTS TO THE VISOR!! THEY REPLACED THE WIRING AND THE VISOR. WE LOOKED FOR ALL RECALLS AND FOUND NOTHING ON THIS PROBLEM. I ASKED IF THEY HAD SEEN THIS BEFORE AND THEY SAID NO, SO I THOUGHT IT BEST TO CONTACT YOUR AGENCY IN CASE IT HAPPENS TO SOMEONE WITH KIDS, OR DISABLED PEOPLE ETC IN THE CAR THAT HAD TO BE HELPED TO GET OUT QUICKLY!! LUCKILY IT WAS JUST ME IN THE CAR. I GOT THE CAR BACK YESTERDAY, WED. 1-18-2017 AND ALL APPEARS TO BE WELL. PLEASE ALERT THE CORRECT PEOPLE TO THIS HAZARD.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 CHEVROLET CAPTIVA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE IGNITION KEY FAILED TO TURN TO SHUT OFF THE VEHICLE. THE KEY WOULD NOT DISENGAGE FROM THE IGNITION. THE FAILURE RECURRED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

1. WHEN IN CRUISE CONTROL AND HAVING THE RADIO ON AND THEN USING THE TURN SIGNAL, VEHICLE DECELERATES, (ON HIGHWAY( 2. TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR WAS SENSING THE WRONG TIRE AS HAVING LOW TIRE PRESSURE. (IN MOTION, CITY STREET) 3. VEHICLE CLOCK RESETS TO 12:00. (STATIONARY) 4. VEHICLE WILL NOT START...WAIT ABOUT 1/2 AN HOUR AND MAYBE IT WILL START. (STATIONARY) I WOULD CONSIDER THIS VERY MUCH A SAFETY CONCERN. AFTER PASSING A VEHICLE, MY VEHICLE DECELERATES, WHICH IS ALARMING.

WHILE DRIVING I WAS SUDDENLY OVERCOME BY A NOXIOUS ODOR WHICH CAUSED BURNING IN MY EYES, NOSE AND THROAT. I TURNED OFF MY A/C AND OPENED MY WINDOWS WHICH HELPED DILUTE THE ODOR. BY CHANCE I LIFTED MY DRIVER-SIDE VISOR AND A LOUD CLICKING OCCURRED. I REPEATED THIS TO TRY TO FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS WRONG, THEN WHEN I GRASPED THE ROD THAT THE VISOR SLIDES ON MY FINGERS WERE BURNED AND BLISTERED.BECAUSE IT WAS SO HOT. THE CABIN LIGHTS FLICKER AND THE HEADLIGHTS DO AS WELL. THE CEILING AREA BY THE VISOR BECOMES VERY HOT TO THE TOUCH. WHEN THE CAR IS OFF, IT BEGINS TO COOL. I THINK THIS HAS BEEN COMING ON FOR A WHILE BECAUSE OF THE FLICKERING, BUT I HAD NO IDEA THAT IT MIGHT ALL BE RELATED. BY THE WAY, I HAD MY CAR LESS THAN 9 MONTHS WHEN THE BATTERY DIED. ODD FOR A 2014 VEHICLE.

ON JULY 9, 2015 AT APPROXIMATELY 4PM I NOTICED WHAT APPEARED TO BE (COLD) FROST BLOWING FROM THE INSIDE VENTS OF MY VEHICLE, AND AS I LOOKED AT THE TEMP. GAUGE I NOTICED IT WAS GOING UP IN THE 200S SO I IMMEDIATELY TURNED ON MY HEAT TOO REDUCED THE TEMP., BECAUSE I THOUGHT TH VEHICLE WAS OVER HEATING. BUT AFTER AWHILE I NOTIED THE TEMP WAS NOT GOING DOWN SO I SWITCHED TI THE AC, AND IMMEDIATELY THE TEMP. BEGAN TO GO DOWN BACK TO NORMAL, WHICH IS 181 ON AVERAGE. I'M NOT SURE WHAT THIS MEANS, AS I DID HAVE COOLANT IN THE OVERFLOW TANK. I TOOK THE VEHICLE IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND MENTIONED THIS ISSUE TO THE SERVICE PERSON AND THEY STATED SOMETHING ABOUT THE AC COMPRESSOR, WHICH I DID NOT UNDERSTAND. SO I'VE BEEN RUNNING MY AC WHENEVER THE TEMP GAUGE GOES UP. TO THIS DAY I STILL DON'T KNOW WHY THIS IS HAPPENING.
