Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2008 Captiva.
The 2008 Chevrolet Captiva arrives at the start of a model line whose recent years show a striking contrast in complaint volume, with a solitary reported issue in 2011 and a peak of 145 complaints in 2012. Its early‑year placement positions it just before the most stable period recorded between 2011 and 2015. Consequently, the 2008 version is framed by data that brackets both the low‑complaint outlier of 2011 and the higher‑complaint peak of 2012.
