For the past 2 months every time I reach 40 mph service stabilitrak comes on and the car starts pulling to the left and having trouble accelerating. I have took it to 3 mechanics and they can't find the problem at all

The contact owns a 2015 Chevrolet Traverse. The contact stated that upon starting the vehicle, the air bag warning light unexpectedly illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that all the front air bag modules had failed and needed to be replaced. The contact was also informed that the rear air bags could potentially be inoperable and might require to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 80,000.

Our vehicle has a hole/leak in the pipe before the catalytic converter. This is a known problem in other years of the Traverse, and the warranty was increased substantially to fix an obvious and proven issue. GM needs to repair our 2015 Chevrolet Traverse at no cost to us before the fumes cause harm to anyone in the cabin.

Every so often, when I brake, just before the car should come to a complete stop, the engine seems to rev and the car will keep moving forward a few feet. Chevy dealership had 3 different service technicians drive the car to try to recreate the problem, but since it is a rare occurrence, they did not experience the issue. Googling the scenario returns many who say it may be a vacuum leak in the brake booster. Dealership said the brake booster is fine. Floor mat interference with the gas pedal has also been mentioned. I removed the floor mat, and I still have the issue. Dealership said the brakes themselves are fine, and the diagnostic tool returned no problem codes. They also searched for any recalls, but none were found. Any insight provided is appreciated.

The 2015 Chevy Traverse LTZ that I own is presenting with the same problems as many of its body style and year. The water intrusion has caused wiring to corrode in the side detection system & the drivers door wiring harness is presenting with open circuits. The LH side object module is throwing code U0233:00. They tested circuits at RH module. Found water intrusion in module, & corrosion on terminals & harness. Due to nature of location of modules, they recommend replacing LH & RH modules & harness. DTC B0085:05 current. Tested circuits & found open circuit internal to drivers door harness. Recommend replacing harness. The air bag code threw 2 days after I bought the veh 04/01/25, I attempted to contact the dealership I bought the vehicle from, AutoCredit in Hayden, ID, who admitted to the dangerous code being present, and that they were going to do nothing about it. Some time late April, my veh threw the code for side detection. On 05/27/25 I took my veh into Taylor & Sons Chevy in Ponderay, who dx my codes, and advised the above was needed. They also confirmed the fact that when that airbag code is present, that none of my airbags would deploy at time of impact if a collision occurred. This is a huge safety risk as much of my daily commute is on the hwy, and the influx of drivers in my area not familiar with the roads is increasing daily. My side detection system is a safety hazard as well due to the Traverse’s blind spots. Thank you for your time. I did not know what to do until I contacted Chevy directly who advised me to contact the NHTSA.

I was never informed of this recall! I just happened to check due to a seperate issue that's been happening(the transmission seems to be slipping, which I also read 2015 traverse's have that recall too, just not under my VIN) But it upsets me that I never received notice on this and the recall was in May 2023 and it's now March 2025!! I drive this car DAILY and also have my boyfriend in the passenger seat DAILY on our commute to and from work!!

During a routine maintenance appointment with my mechanic, the airbag warning light illuminated on the dashboard immediately following service. I brought the vehicle to a dealership for diagnosis and was informed that the issue is due to a manufacturer-issued recall affecting the airbag system. However, I was also told that no replacement parts are currently available and there is no estimated date for when the defective component can be replaced. This creates a serious safety risk, as the vehicle may now be operating with a disabled or malfunctioning airbag system, which could fail to deploy in the event of a collision. I am forced to drive a vehicle that has been acknowledged as unsafe by the manufacturer and dealer, without remedy or safe alternative provided. The dealer confirmed the recall and the unavailability of parts, but has offered no loaner vehicle, reimbursement, or temporary resolution. I am requesting that NHTSA intervene to ensure that: The manufacturer remedies the safety defect in a timely manner. Affected drivers are provided with safe alternative transportation if parts are delayed. Accountability measures are enforced if harm results from known but unresolved recalls. Component/System for inspection: Vehicle is available for inspection upon request. Warning lights/symptoms: The airbag indicator light turned on immediately after routine service. Dealer confirmed problem: Yes. Manufacturer informed: Indirectly, through dealer report. Police/Insurance involved: No.

The recall happened in May 2023 and there is no remedy at this moment, February 2024. Have called dealership and have not been offered a solution. I feel unsafe driving my vehicle with my family. We are at risk. I called the auto manufacture today, 2/27/2024 and they do not have such date on a remedy.

While driving the traction control, stabilitrac, all wheel drive, and abs systems will turn off and says to survive them. We have had the vehicle in to 3 different mechanic shops and the issue still persists. Each time a different "fix". This time the wheel speed sensor in the rear was replaced. We have had the other rear wheel speed senor replaced previously as well as the rear wheel bearing hub assembly.

would like to know what is being done to remedy this...been a year since the recall has been issued and nothing has been done to fix the cars. im uncomfortable driving the car especially when my children are in it...this is absolutely ridiculous. something needs to be done about this before more lives are lost.

The recall for the airbag inflator still has not been remedied for my vehicle. This is for NHTSA 23V334. Date Issued: 2023-05-10. It has almost been a year at this point and I fear the safety of my family due to the description of the recall: Safety Risk Description "An inflator rupture may cause metal fragments to pass through the airbag and into the vehicle interior, which may result in injury or death to vehicle occupants." Is there a timeframe on when this will be remedied. The duration of time that has passed already seems pretty excessive for not even having a solution to the problem.

My vehicle has an open recall and manufacturer is unable to remedy this safety recall in a timely manner. I called many dealerships and there’s no part available to fix that issue. I’d like to get that information rid of records, because I’m trying to list my car for rent on Turo. Thanks

The 2015 Chevy Traverse had a hard shifting transmission from the first day we purchased it. The Chevy Dealer said that it was a shifting software problem. That did not fix it. The hard shifting transmission caused an engine motor mount to break twice. (There was a safety recall on the motor mount) That engine motor mount caused the power steering fluid to leak out. I contacted the Chevy Dealer and they said contact General Motors. General Motors ignored the problems.

Safety of my wife and 5 children are at risk every time they get in our family vehicle.

I have been in contact with GM to find a remedy since they do not have a repair option for my vehicle yet. My car now is displaying the service airbag warning light, and I cannot get any service department to take a look at this to make sure it’s safe to be driving without paying a $260 diagnostic fee. I am a single mom, I do not have an extra $260 to pay without knowing if it’s something they can fix. GM has offered no solution or assistance in fixing this situation.

My name is [XXX] and I live in Plainsboro NJ. I own a 2015 Chevrolet Traverse. I received a letter from General Motors letting me know about a recall in June (attached). The letter states that GM has a Safety Recall having to do with the driver side airbag which may contain a supplier manufacturing defect that may result in the inflator rupturing during deployment. It goes on to say that the inflator rupture may cause metal fragments to pass through the airbag and into the vehicle which may result in injury or death. I contacted our dealer Ciocca Chevrolet of Princeton and told them I received this recall letter. They said they did not have the parts, but I would be notified when the parts came in. I called GM using the number on the recall letter to ask when the parts would come in and they told me I would be notified. Since June I have reached out to both GM and the Dealership a couple of times and both have stated that I would be notified when the parts came in. It has now been four months and the GM continues to tell me that they don't know when the parts are coming in. I have been driving an unsafe car. GM says they are not loaning cars or providing rentals for this recall. I find this unacceptable and need help getting this resolved. I called the NHTSA number 888-327-4236 and Hanitsa who I spoke to stated that you can not force GM to provide a loaner or a rental and I have to decide whether or not I should be driving the car. I do not have a choice but to take the risk of drive my car everyday since I have to go to work. I have been very lucky that nothing has happened and I continue to pray that nothing will happen but i should not be in this position. I am asking that GM provide me with a loaner or rental until they get the parts to fix my car. Please respond to this email as soon as possible, I am looking forward to hearing from you with a resolution. Thanks, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
