Odometer Fraud. The contact was in the process of purchasing a 2014 Chevrolet Traverse. It was discovered that there was a mileage discrepancy. The vehicle was a private sale. Before the vehicle was purchased, the mileage was 118,000. At the time of registration, it was discovered that the mileage was 227,937.
Had the whole ECM replaced as well as all wire harnesses inspected. Fuse box inspection and retighned. All fuses and relays checked. Ignition switch replacement as well. The code for P1682 went away months but has now returned. Also have replaced battery and few other minor items. The car will go into limp mode randomly on freeway or roads. Almost caused an accident since the power steering stops working as well.
The contact owns a 2014 Chevrolet Traverse. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle lost motive power. The message "Engine Power Reduced" was displayed. After waiting 20 minutes, the contact was able to restart the vehicle. The vehicle was diagnosed by the contact's friend, and it was determined that the clock spring had failed and needed to be replaced; however, the contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V614000 (Electrical System), but the VIN was not included in the recall. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and advised the contact to file a complaint with the NHTSA Hotline. The failure mileage was approximately 195,000.
The airbag light is constantly on. I've dinner many replacement repairs but it's still on
The vehicle stalls while driving at any speed. It has left me on the highway or the middle of an intersection with myself & my kids in danger. The check engine light comes on before the vehicle shuts off completely & loses power & steering. The traction control & stability warning also come on. The vehicle has rolled backwards while in park numerous times so I have to use the parking brake on a regular basis as a safety precaution. The power steering is also an issue. The driver seat belt & air bags make this car a rolling death TRAP. There are past recalls or safety concerns for the traverse that are the exact same issue that I’m having but they are not specific to my vin number so the dealership refuses to address them! Is 7 recalls & they all apply to this vehicle! I’ve attempted to have the vehicle repaired multiple times & they have failed & the same problem returns. I just want my vehicle to be safe & not put myself or my family in danger of being injured or killed.
The manufacturer has failed to remedy this safety recall. The recall is dated May 10, 2023, and now over 2 years later there is no remedy. I remain concerned about my safety and the safety of my family, while driving this car. Despite the cost of replacement, but in consideration of the potential seriousness of the issue, time fame involved, and lack of action by the manufacturer, I am requesting complete replacement of all airbags in the above-referenced car.
fuel pump issue that is cause engines to stall while driving or not start after placing gas in the vehicle. It is having the battery run low and car die or stall and stop while driving. It will turn your check engine light on.
Went to buckle Driver’s seatbelt and the assembly where the seatbelt retracts came apart for no reason.
Traction control light comes on and then my vehicle keeps jerking as I drive and a stabilizer track notification light comes on
I have a 2014 Chevy traverse I got December 2024. Up until 4/16/2025 I noticed a little cutting in and out of the radio and of course took it as the connection being back but yesterday after working I notice my radio isn’t giving out sound , my blinkers not giving sound and neither is my back up camera or seatbelt notifier. I’ve seen a ton of forums online where people are complaint of this same problem so I’m sure since 2014 this issue has been brought up. The question is what is Chevy going to do about it. This fix could be costly. I did get my fuses checked and nothing is bad in that area. What will Chevy recommend me to do?

The water pump was replaced; however, the check engine warning light remained illuminated. The vehicle was returned to the dealer, who diagnosed the vehicle with the same failure. The dealer cleared the code. The contact stated that the check engine warning light remained illuminated. The vehicle was not repaired. The vehicle was taken to a certified mechanic who diagnosed that the fuel pump and dashboard needed to be replaced. The mechanic also determined that the shock absorbers were leaking and needed to be replaced. The fuel pump was replaced.

The contact owns a 2014 Chevrolet Traverse. The contact stated while driving 35-40 MPH, the vehicle stalled. The message "Power Reduction" was displayed, and the check engine and traction control warning lights were illuminated. The contact was able to pull over to the side of the road. The contact stated that the vehicle was able to restart; however, upon attempting to drive, the vehicle shuddered, and the failure recurred. The vehicle was towed to the residence. The contact scanned the vehicle with a vehicle scanner and retrieved DTC: P1682; which indicated an Emission Switch Circuit Fault. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 97,000.
I was driving along the highway way at 60-65 mph when suddenly service traction control came on and vehicle started jerking and slowing down. As I tried to accelerate it continued to jerk and then just shut off completely. I hit the guard rail/ jersey wall on the drivers side because I had no control of the vehicle due to the vehicle shutting down. Upon taking it to the dealer after getting it home they stated it could be the junction box which is a known issue but they don’t see anything wrong with it and can’t duplicate the problem. I’ve contacted various mechanics and get that it’s an electrical issue that Chevrolet is aware of but refuses to place a recall for it. I could have gotten seriously injured if not killed by this problem and safety issue.
While driving my traction control turns off and reduces power to the vehicle often stalling it making it hard to safely move to the side of the road.. has been happening since I got the vehicle from a dealership
The contact owns a 2014 Chevrolet Traverse. The contact stated while driving at approximately 35 MPH, the vehicle lost automotive power and failed to accelerate as intended due to an exhaust leak. The contact stated that the failure was due to the weld on the exhaust being fractured from the A/C drain leaking onto the exhaust. No warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed; however, the cause of the failure was unknown. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure persisted. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 35,010. The VIN was invalid.
Multiple issues have occurred with this vehicle. I have had major unsafe issues while driving while on the freeway and streets where my vehicle reads traction control off and engine power reduced which leads my vehicle to lose all power and shut down being stranded and almost hit multiple times while by myself and while my husband and children are present. I believe I am the second or third owner of this vehicle and I was never given any information about any recalls
I received a recall notice for my 2014 Chevy Traverse airbag June of 2023. I have tried to set up an appointment to have it replaced many times and am told that parts are not available. Many manufacturers have already taken care of the replacement. I am concerned about operating my vehicle in an unsafe manner. When can I expect this to be taken care of?
This has happened three times . First time i was driving my vehicle on the street and randomly turned off . The second time this happened i was driving on the freeway at 66 mph & it randomly turned off and the speed was reduced on seconds. This incident was very dangerous to the point were i almost got hit with my family in the vehicle I needed a tow truck to take me home and it was super risky and dangerous because other vehicles were passing about 2 ft away from us and at a high speed. Third time this happened i almost got hit again due to the random shut off and loss of velocity and this time it was a very small gap and space i had and cars kept honking and cars were passing at a one ft distance . once the lights turn on , on the dash board when it's barely a warning and recently pop up the vehicle automatically randomly turns off . the lights i get on the dashboard are stability track , traction control off , engine power is reduced , service stabilitrak, and check engine light . Has not been inspected .
Dashboard notification indicating tighten gas cap, and then check engine light comes on. Took vehicle to get scanned and code says evap leak, took to mechanic all issues were fixed including replaced gas cap as suggested by many Chevy Traverse owners who have the same issue. 30 days later now same issue is coming up. Researched online and it seems that many other owners have experienced this and fix is only temporary.
Vehicle constantly has p1682 code and will turn off while driving. Also may just go into low power mode, turn off traction control and have stabile track service needed lights. Vehicle may shake violently as well. If code is reset the car can be driven again until the cycle reappears. Things already changed include ignition switch, ECM, o2 sensors, purge valve, mass air flow sensor.

The fuel gauge in my vehicle is not functioning correctly. It is showing that my fuel level is very low/empty even with a full tank of gas. I took it to the repair shop and the it had the codes P0452 for the fuel tank pressure sensor circuit and P0463 for the fuel level sensor. The repair shop replaced the fuel pump module which did not fix the problem. They suggested it appears to have an ECM issue. This exact problem is a recall on the 2014 Chevy Traverse however my vehicle is not included in this recall.
For at least 5 years, we have been consistently encountering this same problem. After driving awhile, typically at higher speeds, we will get a error message saying to "service stabilitrack and traction control" and "traction control has been turned off". Often this is accompanied by significant shaking of the vehicle and steering column, random gear shifting, impeding your ability to control acceleration and sometimes causing steering issues. We have taken to our mechanic numerous times, and he is unable to diagnose the issue. A code reader returns: ABS-TCS Brake Switch Circuit malfunction. This issue is well-documented in vehicle forums online (Google: Chevrolet Traverse stabilitrack or traction control.

While driving my car, the instrument panel just went blank. My gages all read 0. No speedometer, no battery voltage, no fuel level. The driver information center also shut off. Blinkers would not work, door lock/unlock button did not work after stopping the car. The engine never felt like it lost power and my car would still drive but I could not signal or see how fast I was going.

My car started lagging while driving and the power was low. And vehicle started shaking. Traction Tire keeps automatically shutting off and through investigation I found it was from TCM or EMC. But when looking at fuse box all fuses look burnt. I noticed there were other recalls on this year of vehicle that could possibly match up with my issue however my specific vehicle only has one incomplete recall. I’d like to know there were any other recalls that were “fixed” I’m not the first owner of this vehicle. I want to know what else I can do before going and buying a part. Electrical is not included in my warranty.

I received a recall in June 2023. I continually call the Chevy dealers and they state there is no remedy to have this recall done. Some one died from this issue why has GM not been forced to get these parts to dealers so this dangerous issue can be fixed????? I don’t have the option to not drive my vehicle I am a single parent that has to work. I do not want my child to be hurt or killed either if this airbag goes off! Please get this issue handled so we can have these airbags fixed. It’s been over a year since I received this letter.
My airbag warning light came on and the system reported a seatbelt issue. There was a recall for my vehicle in 2014 that wasn’t repaired. Over time my vehicle has had insurmountable electrical issues as well.
In June of 2023 I was notified of a recall on my 2024 Traverse. The notification states that if the airbag were to deploy, there is a chance of shrapnel being fired into the cabin and killing the occupants. (Recall N232404980). I have reached out to my local Chevy dealer multiple times and been told that there is no resolution at this time. As of today, I checked GM's web site and there is still no resolution. I feel that my safety and the safety of my passengers is at risk every time we are in this vehicle. I cannot afford to park this vehicle and wait for OVER A YEAR for GM to come up with a solution to this very dangerous issue. The vehicle is worthless to sell on the market. Anyone dumb enough to knowingly buy a vehicle with the equivalent of a loaded shotgun pointing at their face would have to be dumber than I am for driving it and allowing family members to drive it. But again, it's all I have so what can I do?

There is a recall for the airbag, the vehicle has a warning light on inside the instrument cluster. I keep calling the dealer to have it repaired as I am nervous about having my son drive this car. The dealer keeps telling me GM has no remedy for repair. This is unacceptable, it's been years now that this airbag fiasco has been going on. Is NHTSA just going to let GM take their time until all of these vehicles equipped with faulty airbags just go out of service? What is the plan of action?
