2012 Chevrolet Traverse Complaint Log

WHILE DRIVING DURING WET CONDITIONS, THE POWER STEERING STOPPED WORKING, NEARLY CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO IMPACT A CURB AND TREE. THE DEALER IS LOOKING INTO THE REASONING FOR THIS, THERE SEEM TO BE NUMEROUS COUNTS OF 2009-2013 GM CROSSOVER VEHICLES HAVING THE SAME ISSUE, WITHOUT RECALLS. I FEEL THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE, AS I WAS DRIVING WITH MY 4 YEAR OLD SON. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V118000 (AIR BAGS). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 49,550. UPDATED 5/5/15*CN UPDATED 06/18/15*JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER. THE VEHICLE WAS PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND RESTARTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER AND THE FAULTY SENSORS WERE REPLACED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED AND THE HEADLIGHTS STOPPED WORKING. THE CONTACT HAD TO DRIVE WITH THE HIGH BEAMS ACTIVATED. THE MANUFACTURER DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE, EXCEPT TO REFER THE CONTACT BACK TO THE DEALER AND NHTSA. THE FAILURE WAS NOT REMEDIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 82,000. THE VIN WAS NOT PROVIDED.

MY CAR IS NOTIFYING ME TO SERVICE AIR BAGS. I HAVE NEVER RECEIVED A MESSAGE LIKE THIS FROM ANY OF MY CARS AND WHEN I TOOK IT IN, THE DEALER SAID IT IS NOT ON A RECALL SO I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR IT. IT IS AN AIRBAG AND I FEEL THAT IT MAY BE A RECALL SINCE IT IS A MANUFACTURERS ISSUE AND OBVIOUSLY I CAN'T DO ANYTHING TO THE AIRBAG. I WOULD HATE TO SEE A FATALITY DUE TO THE AIRBAG AND THEN A RECALL IS ISSUED OUT AFTER THE FACT. *TR

DRIVING WHEN CAR BEEPS 4 TIMES AND CONTROL LIGHTS COME ON SAYING TRACTION CONTROL OFF, STABILITY CONTROL OFF, ENGINE POWER LOW. SLOWS THE CAR DOWN TO 15-20 MPH. VERY DANGEROUS AS THERE IS VERY LITTLE TIME TO RESPOND. LUCKILY, I WASN'T GOING VERY FAST TO BEGIN WITH, BUT ON THE HIGHWAY IT COULD BE DISASTROUS. IT SLOWS THE ENGINE AND CANNOT GO ANY FASTER. *TR

2012 TRAVERSE....66,000 MILES ON IT AND MY WIPERS QUIT RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF A SNOW STORM.. IT WAS ACTING UP, THE DRIVERS NOT WORKING WHEN YOUR HAD YOUR LEFT BLINKER GOING.. THEN BOOM TOTALLY QUIT.. TAKING TO DEALER TOMORROW.. *TR

VEHICLE VERY HARD TO STEER. LOUD NOISE WHEN SHIFT OUT OF PARK. HARD TO STEER AT LOW SPEED, TOOK TO DEALERSHIP THEY KEPT MY VEHICLE REFUSED TO PROVIDE LOANER CAR UNTIL DIAGNOSED TWO DAYS LATER. DROPPED OFF ON A FRIDAY DEALER SAYS REPAIR TO STEERING WON'T BE DONE UNTIL TUESDAY. RESEARCHED ONLINE AND FOUND THIS PROBLEM ON MANY CHEVY TRAVERSE FORUMS. THIS CAR NEEDS TO BE RECALLED BEFORE SOMEONE IS INJURED. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET A WARNING MESSAGE OF "SERVICE BATTERY CHARGING SYSTEM" CAME ON. I IMMEDIATELY MOVED TO THE SHOULDER, TURNED THE CAR OFF, RESTARTED IT, AND GOT THE SAME MESSAGE. NOT KNOWING IF IT WOULD BE SAFE TO DRIVE ANY FURTHER AND NOT HAVE ANY LOSS OF CONTROL IN TRAFFIC I CALLED A FRIEND WHO SAID THE BATTERY MIGHT HAVE SUFFICIENT POWER TO ALLOW ME TO LIMP IN TO A DEALER FOR SERVICE. AFTER A "WHITE KNUCKLE" DRIVE I GOT TO THE DEALER AND ABOUT $1150 WORTH OF REPAIRS LATER THINGS SEEM TO BE BACK IN ORDER. I WAS TOLD THE CHARGING SYSTEM FAILED. HARD TO BELIEVE THIS COULD HAPPEN IN LESS THAN THREE YEARS AND LESS THAN 40,000 MILES. I CAN'T IMAGINE WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF THE ENGINE HAD LOST POWER BECAUSE OF THIS PREMATURE AND SUDDEN FAILURE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. WHEN THE IGNITION WAS TURNED TO THE ON POSITION, THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED CONTINUOUSLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THERE WAS A WIRING FAILURE UNDERNEATH THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT AND THE WIRE CONNECTION NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 51,000.

ON 24 DEC 2014 AT AROUND 11:45AM, I WAS PULLING OFF A MAIN ROAD (WITH MY YOUNG DAUGHTER) INTO THE PARKING LOT OF MY DOCTOR'S BUSINESS, WHEN MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKED COMPLETELY WHILE I WAS STILL IN MOTION. AFTER BRAKING, I WAS ABLE TO JIGGLE THE STEERING WHEEL FREE AND PULLED THE CAR INTO A PARKING SPACE. I CONTACTED MY DEALERSHIP IMMEDIATELY TO REPORT THE INCIDENT. AS IT WAS CHRISTMAS EVE, THEY WERE CLOSING WITHIN MINUTES AND I WAS TOLD TO BRING IN THE CAR ON FRIDAY, DEC 26TH..WHICH I DID. AFTER AN ASSESSMENT WAS COMPLETED AND THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT "COULD NOT DUPLICATE CUSTOMER'S COMPLAINT OF LOSS OF POWER STEERING", I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NOTHING ELSE THEY COULD DO FOR ME UNTIL THE PROBLEM HAPPENED AGAIN AND WITH MORE REGULARITY. THE SERVICE REPS DID SHARE THAT THERE HAS BEEN REPORTED INCIDENTS WITH THE TRAVERSE REGARDING LOSS OF POWER STEERING, BUT NO FURTHER INFORMATION WAS SHARED WITH ME. UPON DRIVING OUT OF THE DEALERSHIP, I PROMPTLY CONTACTED GM WHO OPENED UP A CASE REPORT. I HAVE REQUESTED THAT GM AND THE DEALERSHIP CONDUCT A MORE THOROUGH DIAGNOSIS OF THE STEERING SYSTEM AS I DEEM THIS INCIDENT MORE THAN JUST A "RANDOM" INCIDENT. THIS IS RATHER ALARMING AND I AND MY DAUGHTER ARE EXTREMELY LUCKY THAT THIS DID NOT HAPPEN MINUTES BEFORE WHEN WE WERE ON A MAJOR INTERSTATE DRIVING AT A HIGHER SPEED. NEEDLESS TO SAY, I FEEL VERY UNSAFE IN MY CAR NOW AND FEEL IT NECESSARY TO REPORT THE INCIDENT TO NHTSA IN THE EVENT OTHER 2012 TRAVERSE OWNERS HAVE REPORTED THE SAME. THANK YOU. *JS

CAR STABILITY CONTROL FAULTED AND THROTTLED THE VEHICLE TO 15 MPH ON THE HWY. ALMOST KILLED MY WIFE AND CHILDREN AS SHE HAD TO GO ACROSS 3 LANES OF TRAFFIC TO PULL OFF THE HWY. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 39,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND SEVERAL UNKNOWN INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO RESTART AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000.

I HAVE HAD MANY ONGOING ISSUES SINCE CAR PURCHASE. ELECTRICAL , AIR CONDITIONING AND INJECTOR ISSUES. CAR DOES NOT SEEM SAFE. LIGHTS GO OUT EVERY FEW MONTHS WHILDE DRIVING WHEN IT IS DARK. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. 1ST REPLACEMENT ON LIGHT WAS DONE WHILE UNDER WARRANT, HOWEVER, CHEVY DEALER FAILED TO ADDRESS THE ISSUES CAUSING THE LIGHT TO BURN OUT AND SIMPLY CHANGED LIGHT OUT. IT HAS BEEN CONTINUOUS WITH US CHANGING LIGHTS, BRAKE LIGHTS AND HEADLIGHTS. CAR WOULD LOSE POWER AND JERK AS WELL AS HAD GEARS PROBLEMS WHILE TRAVELING ON A FWY WITH CARS GOING AN AVERAGE OG 60 MPH. CAR WOULD NOT AUTO SHIFT ABOVE 20-30 MPH. GAS SMELL UPON START OF VEHICLE AND THE LIST GOES ON. STUCK OPEN EVAP PURGE SOLENOID SETTING SES LIGHT CAC CASE 8-2106770252 DALILA LOPEZ--- SCANNED ECM FOUND CODE P0300 P0496.PERFORMED DIAGNOSIS. PERFORMED INJECTOR BALANCE TEST FOUND BANK 1 INJECTOR OUT OF SPECS.REPLACED 1 3 5 INJECTORS. IT SEEMS THAT THERE IS A POSSIBILITY THAT THE INJECTOR ISSUES MAY HAVE CAUSED OTHER PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE WHICH CANNOT BE DENIED NOR CONFIRMED. AN OIL PAN GASKET HAS BEEN LEAKING AS WELL WHEN LESS THAN 90,000 MILES. SAFETY HAS BEEN AN ONGOING CONCERN. I AM REQUESTING THAT THE ELECTRICAL ISSUES THAT HAVE NOT BEEN RESOLVED SINCE THE 1ST LIGHT WENT OUT IN 2014 TO BE RESOLVED AT GMS COST. IN ADDITION I AM ASKING THAT THE OIL PAN GASKET REPLACEMENT BE DONE AT GM COST . IN ADDITION, I AM REQUESTING REIMBURSEMENT OF MY DOWN PAYMENT OF $10,000 ON MY VEHICLE.

A WEEK AGO MY TRAVERSE STARTED MAKING A GRINDING NOISE, AND I THOUGHT IT WAS THE BRAKES SO I TOOK IT TO OUR MECHANIC WHO CHECKED ALL FOUR WHEELS AND DETERMINED THE BRAKES WERE FINE. HE SAID IT WAS POSSIBLY A ROCK OR SOMETHING CAUSING THE NOISE AND IT STOPPED FOR A FEW DAYS. THIS MORNING I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING SPOT AT WORK AND THE STEERING FROZE UP COMPLETELY AND THE BRAKES DID NOT WANT TO WORK EITHER. I ALMOST HIT THE CAR I WAS PARKING NEXT TO! I'M SO GLAD THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC OR A MAIN STREET OR IT COULD HAVE BEEN A LOT WORSE. VERY SCARY, BUT WHAT WOULD CAUSE THIS? WILL GM BE LOOKING INTO THIS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS REALLY HURT OR HAS A MAJOR ACCIDENT? TAKING BACK TO THE MECHANIC WEDNESDAY TO CHECK THE STEERING PUMP.... NOT HAPPY. *TR

WHILE DRIVING IN OUR TRAVERSE THE IGNITION FELL OUT IF THE ON POSITION KILLING THE ENGINE AND LOCKING THE STEERING WHEEL. *TR

DURING REGULAR SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE, WAS TOLD THAT THE POWER STEERING GREAT NEEDS REPLACEMENT BECAUSE IT IS LEAKING ($1500). NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. STRANGELY ENOUGH, MY 2010 CHEVROLET TAHOE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AT 32,000 MILES BUT WAS COVERED UNDER BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY. THIS IS NOT A COINCIDENCE IN MY OPINION. *TR

WHILE DRIVING MY CHILDREN TO SCHOOL A WARNING LIGHT CAME ON TO CHECK POWER CHARGING SYSTEM BUT THEN IT WENT OFF. A FEW MINUTES LATER MY AIR CONDITIONING SHUT OFF AND THE POWER SAVING MODE LIGHT CAME ON FOLLOWED A FEW MINUTES BY THE BATTERY WARNING LIGHT. LATER THAT EVENING I HAD MY HUSBAND FOLLOW ME TO A NEARBY AUTO SHOP TO HAVE THE CAR CHECKED OUT. THE AIR WOULD NOT EVEN COME ON AND I DROVE LESS THAN 2 MILES TO THE SHOP. NEAR THE AUTO SHOP AFTER HAVING THE CAR CHECKED OUT AND TOLD TO REPLACE THE BATTERY I ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE HOME WITH THE INTENT TO RETURN THE NEXT DAY SINCE IT WAS CLOSING TIME AND NO WORK COULD BE DONE. THE CAR EXPERIENCED A COMPLETE POWER FAILURE AT A MAJOR INTERSECTION. THE ALTERNATOR HAD FAILED ON A CAR LESS THAN 3 YEARS OLD AND UNDER 50,000 MILES. I HAVE DONE RESEARCH AND THIS IS A FAIRLY COMMON ISSUE WITH THE 2012 TRAVERSE AND IS NOT CONSIDERED A FLAW OR CAUSE FOR CONCERN OR RECALL. DOES SOMEONE NEED TO DIE BEFORE THIS PROBLEM IS ADDRESSED? *TR

DRIVER BEGAN TO FEEL AND HEAR A RUBBING NOISE COMING FROM THE WHEEL WELL. WHEN TRYING TO MAKE A LOW SPEED LEFT TURN OFF OF A PRIMARY ROAD INTO THE ENTRANCE OF A BUSINESS, THE STEERING COMPLETELY LOCKED UP AND THE DRIVER WAS UNABLE TO TURN AND WAS STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE OPPOSING LANE OF TRAFFIC. FORTUNATELY FOR THE DRIVER AND PASSENGERS, THERE WAS NO ONCOMING TRAFFIC AND THE DRIVER WAS ABLE TO MANUALLY STEER (WITH DIFFICULTY AGAINST A LOT OF RESISTANCE FROM THE STEERING WHEEL) THE CAR BACK INTO THE CORRECT LANE AND CONTINUED ON UNTIL PULLING OVER IN A SAFE LOCATION ON THE SAME BLOCK. *TR

2012 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. RECALL ON THE FLEXIBLE STEEL CABLE THAT CONNECTS THE SAFETY BELT TO THE VEHICLE AT THE OUTSIDE OF THE FRONT OUTBOARD SEATING POSITIONS THAT CAN FATIGUE AND SEPARATE OVER TIME AS A RESULT OF OCCUPANT MOVEMENT INTO THE SEAT. *TA THE CONSUMER STATED THE RECALL, WAS COMPLETED. *JB

OPENED THE LIFT GATE WITH THE KEY FOB, MADE A LOUD NOISE WHEN FULLY EXTENDED AND IMMEDIATELY STARTED SHUTTING WHILE I WAS GETTING SOMETHING OUT OF THE BACK. DON'T KNOW IF THE DOOR WOULD HAVE BOUNCED BACK UP IF IT HIT ME AND WOULD HAVE STARTED COMING BACK DOWN AGAIN SINCE IT DOESN'T STAY UP. USED MANUAL MODE AND DOOR DOES NOT STAY UP. GOOGLED IT AND APPARENTLY THERE HAVE BEEN PROBLEMS SINCE 2007 WITH THE POWER LIFT GATE IN THE SATURN OUTLOOK, ACADIA, TRAVERSE, ENCLAVE, AND EQUINOX. *TR

I WAS DRIVING THROUGH A PARKING LOT AND THE STABILLITRACK LIGHT CAME ON, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FLASHED AND THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON. THE DRIVER CENTER SAID THE TRACTION CONTROL SHUT OFF AND IT ALSO STATED TO SERVICE STABILLITRACK. THE ENGINE SEEMED TO SLOW ITSELF AS WELL. I PARKED THE VEHICLE AND WAITED A FEW MINUTES. THE WARNING LIGHTS FINALLY WENT OFF ON THEIR OWN AND THE TRACTION CONTROL TURNED BACK ON, ON IT'S OWN. THE CAR SEEMED OK DRIVING HOME FOR 2 MILES AND ENGINE POWER SEEMED TO RETURN TO NORMAL BUT THERE SEEMS TO BE SOME HESITATION IN THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTING AT LOW SPEEDS TOO. I CALLED THE DEALER AND THE SOONEST THEY CAN GET ME IN TO CHECK THE CAR IS MONDAY. I ASKED IF IT WAS SAFE TO DRIVE AND THEY WOULD NOT COMMIT TO SAFETY OR RELIABILITY BUT REFUSED PROVIDE ANY RELIEF UNTIL MONDAY AND GAVE ME NO OFFER OF A LOANER CAR. I JUST DID SOME INVESTIGATING ONLINE TO RESEARCH WHAT THE CAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM MIGHT BE AND IT APPEARS THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE AND IT CAN OCCUR AT HIGH SPEEDS ON THE HIGHWAY. MANY FORUMS LIST MANY PEOPLE WITH THIS COMPLAINT. I AM CONCERNED THIS COULD OCCUR AGAIN AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. THE PROBLEM LOOKS TO BE INTERMITTENT AND WILL OCCUR WITHOUT WARNING AT ANY SPEED. IN MY OPINION THIS IS A SAFETY PROBLEM WHICH NEEDS TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY. I AM FEARFUL FOR MY FAMILIES SAFETY IN THIS VEHICLE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN, THE POWER STEERING SUDDENLY MALFUNCTIONED AND THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO RESTART AND OPERATED AS NORMAL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 34,100.

2012 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO AIRBAG AND SEAT BELT RECALL ISSUES. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED THE TWO RECALLS SHOULD HAVE BEEN MENTIONED AT THE TIME OF PURCHASING THE VEHICLE. *JB

FIRST INCIDENT I WAS DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH, WHEN I GOT A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, SERVICE STABILE TRACK, AND THE CRUISE KICKED OFF, THE VEHICLE SLOWED AND STARTED TO CHUG. I PULLED OVER, SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF. CHECKED THE OIL ETC, AND RESTARTED, IT SEEMED FINE. A COUPLE OF WEEKS LATER, I WAS AT A STOP LIGHT WHEN IT DID THE SAME THING, EXCEPT THIS TIME THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF. I HAVE HAD THREE MORE OCCURANCES WITH THIS AND THEY SEEM TO BE GETTING CLOSER TOGETHER. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS AS IT IS A REAL CAUSE FOR CONCERN. I HAVE READ THE FORUMS AND MANY WHO HAVE THE SAME ISSUE THAT I HAVE. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN THIS VEHICLE, AND DREAD TRANSPORTING MY FAMILY IN IT AT THIS TIME. *JS

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V118000 (AIR BAGS). THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PART NEEDED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE.

THE SERVICE AIRBAG AND SEAT BELT REMINDER LIGHT INTERMITTENTLY IS COMING ON ON DRIVER DASHBOARD. HAPPENS WITH PASSENGER IS IN THE FRONT SEAT. THE PASSENGER AND DRIVER WERE BOTH BUCKED UP. TOOK IT TO A SERVICE CENTER AND THERE ARE NO CODES STORED. SYSTEM IS CHECKING OUT WITH PASS WHEN IT IS CHECKED. THERE ARE NO FAIL INDICATORS. BOTH RECALLS HAVE BEEN REPAIRED WITH THE SEAT BELT AND THE AIRBAG SYSTEM WIRING HARNESS AND THE ISSUE IS STILL RECURRING. *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, THE BRAKES WERE ENGAGED AND A LOUD GRINDING SOUND EMITTED FROM THE VEHICLE. THE PROBLEM HAS RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKES FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BUT THE PROBLEM RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000.

I AM ON MY 3RD ENGINE SINCE PURCHASING THIS VEHICLE. SINCE DAY 1 I HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH THE TRACTION CONTROL AND STABILITRAC. RANDOMLY SERVICE LIGHTS COME ON FOR THOSE AS WELL AS REDUCED ENGINE POWER WHILE DRIVING. THE ENGINE HAS LOCKED UP ON ME TWICE. I HAVE HAD NUMEROUS ELECTRICAL ISSUES WITH THE VEHICLE. WHEN THE CAR IDLES OR I'M STOPPED AT A LIGHT MY SERVICE LIGHTS COME ON. MY TRANSMISSION IS NOW AN ISSUE. I HAVE SPENT OVER 15K ON REPAIRS FOR A VEHICLE I BOUGHT FOR 17K..I WAS LIED TO WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE BEING TOLD I WAS THE 2ND OWNER INSTEAD OF THE 5TH. THE PASSENGER AIR BAG HAS A CODE. THE AC DOESN'T WORK, THE HEAT WOULD BLOW ALL THE TIME EVEN IF OFF AND ON COOL, NOW THE BLOWER DOESN'T WORK AT ALL. THE WINDOWS DON'T OPEN.

RECEIVED THE FOLLOWING WARNINGS ALL OF THE SUDDEN: TRACTION CONTROL OFF, TRACTION CONTROL NEEDS SERVICE, STABILITRAK OFF, STABILITRAK NEEDS SERVICE. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AT THE SAME TIME. VEHICLE BEGAN TRYING TO STALL. LUCKILY, I WAS ON A COUNTRY ROAD AND COULD EASILY PULL OVER QUICKLY. ALL OF THE WARNINGS WENT OFF AFTER A MINUTE AND I RESUMED DRIVING. EVERY TIME I HAD TO SLOW DOWN AND COME TO A STOP, THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WOULD DOWNSHIFT VERY HARD. AFTER SEARCHING THE INTERNET TO SEE WHAT THE ISSUE COULD BE, I FOUND COUNTLESS FORUMS WITH COUNTLESS PEOPLE HAVING THE EXACT SAME ISSUE, BUT SOME WERE IN A MORE DANGEROUS SITUATION GOING HIGHWAY SPEEDS IN TRAFFIC. OF THOSE PEOPLE MANY OF THEM HAVE TAKEN THEIR VEHICLE TO THEIR GM DEALERSHIPS AND HAVE SPENT HUNDREDS AND EVEN THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS ON FAILED ATTEMPTS TO FIX IT ONLY TO CONTINUE TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM. SOME WILL NO LONGER ALLOW OTHER FAMILY MEMBERS/CHILDREN TO RIDE IN THE VEHICLES DUE TO THE DANGER OF STALLING SUDDENLY WITH NO WARNING. I WAS SHOCKED TO SEE HOW MANY CHEVY MODELS AND YEARS INCLUDING BRAND NEW 2014'S ARE HAVING THIS EXACT ISSUE AND GM IS DOING VERY WELL AT AVOIDING RESPONSIBILITY. THE NEW OWNERS ARE PROTECTED BY LEMON LAWS FINANCIALLY, BUT THE ONLY OPTION FOR OWNERS WITH A VEHICLE OVER A YEAR OLD IS TO SELL OR TRADE IN. EITHER WAY, THIS IS PUTTING YET ANOTHER UNKNOWING CONSUMER IN DANGER AND IT IS KEEPING THESE DEFECTIVE VEHICLES ON THE ROAD WHERE WE AND OUR LOVED ONES DRIVE EVERYDAY. THE RIGHT AND "SAFE" THING TO DO IS FOR GM TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR A FAULTY PRODUCT. THE RIGHT THING FOR EVERYONE ELSE TO DO THAT ISN'T EMPLOYED BY OR IN GM'S POCKET IS TO REPORT IT AND TAKE ACTION. IT'S ABOUT SAFETY. THAT SHOULD BE THE PRIORITY, NOT MONEY. *TR

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. THE CONTACT WAS NOT EXPERIENCING A FAILURE UNTIL AFTER THE DEALER REPAIRED IT PER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V118000 (AIR BAGS). MONTHS LATER, A "SERVICE AIR BAG SOON" WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE DEALER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INDICATED THAT THE VEHICLE NEEDED TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

AT 30K MILES THE STABILITY AND WOULD PUT MY CAR IN LIMP MODE. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS ONTHE INTERSTATES. SUDDENLY DROPPING THE SPEED TO ABOUT 30 MPH. I DEALT WITH THIS BY KEEPING THE STABILITRAC TURNED OFF. NOW AT 100K IT TURNED ON AND OFF BY ITSELF. REEDING BLOGS I HAVE FOUND NO FIX FOR THIS. THE VEHICLE NOW FILLS WITH FUMES. I WILL PROBABLY NEVER BUY ANOTHER GM PRODUCT. I CAN NOT USE MY CAR. THIS HAPPENS IN ALMOST EVERY DRIVING SITUATION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT BELT CABLE THAT WAS MOUNTED TO THE FLOOR BECAME FRACTURED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER, WHO INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE SERVICE WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE PROBLEM. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 58,392.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER SHIFTING INTO DRIVE, THE VEHICLE ERRONEOUSLY ACCELERATED AND CRASHED INTO A TELEPHONE POLE. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED BACK, HIP, AND KNEE INJURIES WHILE THE PASSENGER SUSTAINED LUNG CONTUSIONS FROM THE AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED ABOUT THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 52,000.

DRIVING ON HIGHWAY, STARTED UP HILL AT 55 MPH IN TRAFFIC. FOLLOWING ALARMS CAME ON: TRACTION CONTROL DASHBOARD SYMBOL; STABILITRACK OFF; ENGINE POWER REDUCED; TRACTION CONTROL DISABLED. VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY SLOWED TO 40 MPH AND WOULD NOT GO FASTER. ONLINE FORUMS INDICATE THIS IS A THROTTLE BODY OR ECU PROBLEM, KNOWN TO GM AT LEAST SINCE 2010. IT HAS BEEN HANDLED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS DEPENDING HOW MUCH THE INDIVIDUAL CUSTOMERS COMPLAIN. I REGARD THIS AS A SAFETY ISSUE SINCE IN HIGHWAY TRAFFIC IT COULD LEAD TO A REAREND COLLISION AT HIGH SPEED WITH CONSEQUENT LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL AND LOSS OF LIVES. BELIEVE GM HAS USED SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMIZATION TO BURY THE FORUM DISCUSSIONS ON THIS, BUT IF YOU SEARCH FOR CHEVY TRAVERSE THROTTLE BODY DEFECT YOU CAN EASILY FIND IT. *TR

"FRONT SEAT"......BACK SUPPORT STUCK IN 1 POSITION AND DOES NOT ADJUST, CAUSING BACK PAIN WHILE DRIVING. I DON'T DRIVE THE CAR UNLESS TOTALLY NECESSARY. CAR DEALERSHIP HAS FIXED THIS PROBLEM SEVERAL TIMES BUT ONLY A TEMPORARY FIX.

OVER THE PAST COUPLE YEARS THE VEHICLE "CHECK AIR BAG" LIGHT HAS COME ON MULTIPLE TIMES AND A WARNING INDICATOR ON THE DASH INDICATING SOMEONE HAS NOT BUCKLED THEIR SEAT BELT. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AT LEAST 5 OR SIX TIMES FOR THE SAME PROBLEM AND THEY HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. MOST RECENT REPAIR ATTEMPT WAS 1/4/16 AND I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT SCHEDULED FOR 2/1/16. I HAVE REACHED OUT TO THE SERVICE MANAGER, CUSTOMER RELATIONS REP AND MOST RECENTLY CORPORATE (CASE# 8-1796822227). WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE NEW BUT HAVE NOT FELT SAFE IN IT SINCE THIS FIRST STARTED HAPPENING. WE TRY TO MINIMISE USE BUT HAVE 5 GRAND CHILDREN THAT WE REGULARLY HAUL AROUND. WE DON'T REALLY RECALL WHEN THE PROBLEM FIRST STARTED. AGAIN WE DO NOT FEEL THIS VEHICLE IS SAFE AND BELIEVE IT SHOULD BE REPORTED AND LOOKED INTO.

I DID NOT HAVE A ACCIDENT BUT I AM SENDING THIS WITH A CONCERN ABOUT WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN BECAUSE OF AN INCIDENT. CHEVROLET TRAVERSE DOES NOT COME WITH A SPARE, (TEMPORARY OR FULL SIZE) OR JACK. IT ALSO DOES NOT HAVE A PLACE TO PUT A SPARE TIRE. I HAD A FLAT TIRE THAT COULD NOT BE REPAIRED AND ALL THAT CAME WITH THE VEHICLE IS A CAN OF SEALANT AND AIR TANK. NOW I WILL HAVE TO BUY A SPARE AND PUT IT IN BACK OF MY VEHICLE AND THIS WILL BE A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. I BOUGHT THIS TRAVERSE FOR THE 3RD ROW SEATING BUT WILL NOT BE ABLE TO USE IT BECAUSE I HAVE NO OTHER PLACE DESIGNATED TO PUT A SPARE OTHER THAN JUST PLACE IN THE BACK SECTION. I HAVE 4 SMALL GRANDCHILDREN AND IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT THE TIRE WILL BE A MAJOR CONCERN BUT WE LIVE IN AN AREA WHERE SOMETIMES PHONE/ONSTAR DOES NOT WORK SO WE HAVE TO HAVE SPARE TIRES. EVERYONE THAT I HAVE TOLD ABOUT THIS IS SHOCKED THAT IT THESE VEHICLES DOES NOT COME WITH AT LEAST A " TEMPORARY TIRE". I HAVE CONTACTED CHEVROLET AND THEY WANT TO CHARGE $700 FOR THE CABLE, TIRE, JACK TO BE ADDED TO VEHICLE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE APPLIED THE BRAKES HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE ERRONEOUSLY ACCELERATED. THE CONTACT REMOVED HIS FOOT FROM THE BRAKES AND THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO FUNCTION NORMALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,800. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

THIS VEHICLE HAS ENGINE DEFECT, WHICH DANGEROUSLY STOPS THE CAR WHILE DRIVEN. THE CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP TRIED TO REPAIR ONCE BUT FAILED. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE FROM CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP IN NOVEMBER OF 2012. ON SEPTEMBER 28, 2013, THE ENGINE OF MY VEHICLE SUDDENLY COMPLETELY STOPPED RUNNING WHILE I WAS DRIVING IT. I BROUGHT IT BACK TO "MAC MAIK CHEVROLET" IN HOUSTON FOR EXAMINATION AND REPAIR. ON OCTOBER 11, 2013, THE DEALERSHIP GAVE IT BACK TO ME ASSURING THAT THEY REPAIRED IT. TWO DAYS LATER, ON OCTOBER 13, 2013, WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON A ROAD, AT A SPEED OF APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE CAR AGAIN SUDDENLY CAME TO A HALT, BLOCKING THE STEERING WHEEL, BRAKES AND ENTIRE ENGINE. THE CAR RAN INTO AN INTERSECTION BEFORE IT CAME TO FULL STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF IT. THANKFULLY, NO OTHER CAR WAS IN THE INTERSECTION. IT WAS DANGEROUSLY CLOSE TO AN ACCIDENT. THE DEALERSHIP NOW SAYS THAT THEY FOUND ANOTHER PROBLEM AND AGAIN ASSURE THAT THEY FIXED IT. I MADE A COMPLAINT TO GENERAL MOTORS, WHICH SIMPLY RESPONDED THAT THEY THINK IT IS NOW FIXED. NO REASONABLY PRUDENT PERSON WOULD EVER DRIVE THIS CAR AGAIN. I WAS IN EXTREME DANGER TWICE DUE TO THE DEFECT. THE DEALERSHIP AND GM DO NOT WANT TO TAKE ANY ACTION UNTIL SOMEONE GETS INTO A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. *TR

BETWEEN 5 AND 7 TIMES THE DASHBOARD MESSAGE WOULD APPEAR WITH MESSAGE STATING SERVICE AIR BAGS. TOOK TO DEALER ON FOUR OCCASIONS TO FIX. NEXT A DASHBOARD MESSAGE WOULD APPEAR INFORMING ME OF ENGINE FAILURE ,LOSS OF POWER.THE VEHICLE WOULD SLOW DOWN TO NO MORE THAN 20 MPH. PULLED OVER SHUT ENGINE OFF AND THAN IT WOULD BE OK. NEXT TIME ABOUT 5 DAYS LATER THE MESSAGE AGAIN APPEARED WHEN MY WIFE WAS DRIVING WITH GRAND KIDS. THE ENGINE SLOWED DOWN TO ABOUT 20 MPH , WHILE SHE WAS BLENDING INTO TRAFFIC ON A HIGHWAY. HAD TO PULL OVER OR BE RUN OVER BY TRAFFIC . TOOK CAR TO DEALER FOR REPAIR. NEXT THE VEHICLE DEVELOPED A BACKLASH IN DRIVE TRAIN, WHICH IS NOISY. DEALER SAID G.M HAD SERVICE BULLETIN ON THE NOISE AND RECOMMENDED ( DO NOT REPAIR) NOISE IS TYPICAL. IDID NOT HAVE THE NOISE FOR FIRST 20,000 MILES. AFRAID THAT THIS IS ANOTHER SAFETY ISSUE THAT G.M DOES NOT WANT TO ADDRESS. LOST ALL CONFIDENCE IN VEHICLE SAFETY. G.M WON'T BUY THE VEHICLE BACK OR GIVE A REALISTIC TRADE IN VALUE FOR IT. *TR

THE DOORS UNLOCK WHEN THE CAR IS PUT IN PARK. THIS IS NORMAL IN SOME MODELS BUT THEY DO NOT UNLOCK IN OTHER MODELS OF THE SAME CAR. THIS IS A SAFETY FACTOR AS IT LETS ANY ONE GET IN TO THE CAR WHEN THE CAR IS PARKED. THIS IS DISCRIMINATION AND SHOULD BE FIXED. THANK YOU. *TR

STABILITRAC AND TRACTION CONTROL AND ENGINE LIGHT WAS FLASHING... KEPT MISFIRING, TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND I AM STILL AS OF SEPTEMBER 17 HAVING THE SAME ISSUE... THERE HAS BEEN NO RESOLUTION. *TR

THE SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS ON. TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALER. THEY REPLACED THE FRONT SEAT OUTBOARD SEAT BACK AIRBAG. JUNE 5 IT WENT BACK IN WITH THE AIRBAG LIGHT ON AGAIN. THEY FIXED A CONNECTOR IN THE DRIVER SEAT SIDE AIRBAG. OCT 18 IT WENT BACK IN WITH THE AIRBAG LIGHT ON. THEY REPLACED THE FRONT SEAT ANCHOR PLATE TENSIONER. DEC 31 IT WENT BACK IN WITH THE AIRBAG LIGHT ON. THEY REPLACED THE MODULE AND HARNESS ASSY. FEB 12 IT WENT BACK IN AGAIN. THEY REPLACED THE WIRING IN PASSENGER AND DRIVER SIDE AIRBAGS. MARCH 17 IT WENT BACK IN AGAIN. THEY OFFERED ME A NEW CAR. *TR

THE POWER STEERING LOCKS AND BECOMES ALMOST UNCONTROLLABLE IN WET CONDITIONS. IT APPEARS EARLIER MODEL YEARS HAVE BEEN RECALLED OR COVERED UNDER WARRANTY BUT NOT 2012. *TR

TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 55MPH WE WERE HIT ON THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE DAMAGE TO THE REAR PASSENGER TIRE WELL AND REAR RIGHT SIDE ON THE BODY WITH EXTENSIVE DAMAGE UNDERNEATH. NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED AT ANYTIME IN THE VEHICLE. IT WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER'S COLLISION AND REPAIR SHOP AND AFTER SEVERAL WEEKS IT WAS RETURNED. WITHIN A WEEK OF GETTING IT BACK THE SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON, WE TOOK IT BACK TO COLLISION REPAIR CENTER THINKING IT WAS AN ISSUE WITH THE ACCIDENT BUT THE COLLISION REPAIR SENT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP SAYING IT WAS A WARRANTY ISSUE. I'VE TAKEN THIS VEHICLE BACK 4 TIMES NOW FOR THE SAME SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT. DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT SUPERVISOR KEEPS TELLING ME IT'S AN ISSUE WITH THERE NOT BEING A GREASE NEEDED ON THE SENSORS AND THAT THEY APPLY TO EACH SENSOR AS IT COMES UP, NOW ON THE 4TH TRIP BACK SERVICE DEPARTMENT MANAGER CLAIMS THAT ISN'T CORRECT AND IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE ISSUE. EACH AND EVERY TIME I'VE TAKEN THIS CAR IN I HAVE SPECIFICALLY ASKED IF THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND IF IT MEANS MY AIRBAGS ARE NOT WORKING CORRECTLY EVERY TIME I'VE BEEN TOLD, "NO, YOUR AIRBAGS ARE OK, THERE IS NO RISK TO YOU OR YOUR FAMILY." DROPPED CAR OF FOR FINAL RESEARCH INTO THIS ISSUE SINCE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN THIS WEEK AND SERVICE MANAGER TELLS ME THAT YES IT DOES MEAN MY AIRBAGS ARE NOT OPERATING PROPERLY AND THERE IS A SAFETY ISSUE HERE. *TR

HELLO. I LEASED A 2012 TRAVERSE FOR 24 MONTHS AND HAD 3 OR WAS IT 4 URGENT/IMPORTANT RECALLS? I MISSED WORK 3 TIMES COSTING ME ALMOST $500.00 DOLLARS BECAUSE I HAD TO CALL OFF ALL BECAUSE "URGENT/IMPORTANT" TOOK THOSE WORDS FOR GRANTED RECALLS. I RECENTLY GOT A 24 MONTH NEW LEASE FROM CHEVY AGAIN AFTER TURNING MY TRAVERSE IN THIS MONTH SHORTLY AFTER I WAS BILLED BY ALLY FINANCIAL ABOUT $600.00 FOR MINOR WEAR AND TEARS FOR THE TRAVERSE I TURNED IN ALMOST 2 WEEKS AGO. I TURNED THE TRUCK IN EARLY AND MADE THE LAST PAYMENT AND IT WAS 8K MILES UNDER. I'M SHOCKED AND APPALLED THAT WITH ALL THE URGENT RECALLS AND HAVING TO LOSE MONEY CALLING OFF WORK TO GET THESE SERIOUS URGENT RECALLS FIXED, ALLY OR CHEVY DID NOT EVEN OFFER ANY INCENTIVES?? THEY SAID REPAIRS FOR RECALLS ARE AT NO CHARGE...WELL OF COURSE THEY'RE RESPONSIBLE AND TO THINK OF MY KIDS AND DRIVING WITH THEM KNOWING A PRIOR URGENT RECALLS AND ONE BEING WAS WITH SAFETY BELTS??,? HMMM MAYBE I NEED TO TALK TO SOMEONE ABOUT THIS, I HAVE TO TAKE IT AS A SERIOUS MATTER. I LOST TIME AND MONEY AWAY FROM WORK TO FIX THE CHEVY RECALLS...SO MANY, AND ALLY FINANCIAL IS ASKING ME FOR ALMOST $600.00??? CHEVY NEGLECTED TO RELEASE THESE VEHICLES LIKE THE TRAVERSE WITH SEAT BELT ISSUES BEING DISCOVERED A YEAR AFTER I'VE BEEN DRIVING IT AND WITH THE FAMILY IN IT? WOW UNBELIEVABLE, AND THEN ALLY FINANCIAL ASKING ME FOR $600. FOR MINOR SCRATCHES, SOME NERVES.
