2015 Chevrolet Traverse Owner Complaints

TAKATA RECALL, THE AIRBAG SERVICE LIGHT CONTINUES TO COME ON AS SERVICE AIR BAG IN MY INSTRUMENT PANEL. SO NOW I HAVE TO PAY TO SERVICE MY AIR BAG BECAUSE I HAVE PASSED THE 30K BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY. NO ONE SHOULD HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT AN AIRBAG NOT DEPLOYING OR DEPLOYING AT THE WRONG TIME. THE CAR WAS STATIONARY EACH TIME THE LIGHT WAS ON. THE LIGHT STAYS ON FOR ABOUT 5 TO 10 MINUTES AND THEN GOES OUT. GM NEEDS TO RECALL ALL OF THEIR AIR BAG ISSUES AND FIX THEM ASAP

MY SIDE CANOPY AIR BAGS DEPLOYED, LOCKED UP MY SEAT BELTS AND THE AIR BAG IN THE DRIVER SEAT ALSO DEPLOYED. AS WELL WITH US RUNNING IN TO ANYTHING AT ALL. WE GOING DOWN THE STREET. WE HAD JUST MADE A RIGHT HAND TURN

PUT INTO PARK TURNED KEY TO OFF WAITED A SECOND AND TURNED KEY TO START ENGINE AND IT RESTARTED. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY 2015 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE AT 30 MPH AT 11 PM. MY STABILITRAK LIGHT CAME ON AS WELL AS ENGINE LIGHT. I LOST POWER AND STOPPED IN AN UNLIT, BUSY INTERSECTION. I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO DIE. FORTUNATELY NO CARS HIT ME. I ROLLED INTO A SMALL DITCH AND STOPPED. IF I STEPPED ON THE GAS, NOTHING REALLY HAPPENED. I SHUT CAR OFF AND LOOKED IN OWNERS MANUAL WHERE IT SAID TO START CAR UP AGAIN. I DID AND THEN IT WORKED. I DROVE TO CAR DEALER NEXT DAY AND THEY KNEW EXACTLY WHAT WAS GOING ON AS I GOT OUT OF MY CAR THEY SAID THEY WOULD GIVE ME A LOANER, WHICH I AM CURRENTLY DRIVING. MTHE SAID IT WAS A TRANSMISSION SENSOR OR SWITCH THAT THEY HAD TO REPLACE. OBVIOUSLY, GMMKNOWS ABOUT THIS. THIS COULD HVE BEEN A FATAL ACCIDENT, EASILY. THIS IS A CRIME IN THAT MY DEALER SOLD ME THIS CAR WITHOUT DISCLOSING A KNOWN PROBLEM TO ME. THESE CARS ARE NOT SAFE AND I WILL TRY TO TRADE IT IN ASAP FOR SOMETHING LESS HAZARDOUS. AGAIN, THIS IS A CRIMINAL ACT THAT GM IS DOING BY CONTINUING TO SELL THESE CARS. IF NO ONE HAS DIED YET, THEY WILL SOON. VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM.

AIRBAGS LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON . PROBLEM WITH TERRING WHEEL TOO HARD TO TURN

8/11/2018

MY POWER STEERING STOPPED WORKING WHILE DRIVING, I MANAGED TO GET TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF. I TURNED BACK ON AND POWER STEERING WAS BACK. THE FOLLOWING DAY I TOOK IT TO THE SHOP AND THEY TOLD ME TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER BECAUSE THE POWER STEERING PUMP WAS LEAKING AND SHOULD BE UNDER WARRANTY. UNFORTUNATELY THE DEALER TOLD ME IT WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY AND I HAD TO HAVE IT REPLACED. I PAID FOR THE REPAIR AND NOW JUST A FEW WEEKS LATER THE SAME THING IS HAPPENING. I HAVE THE VEHICLE SCHEDULED TO GO INTO THE SHOP AGAIN ON MONDAY.

THIS LASTED FOR APPROXIMATELY 3 MINUTES. I COULD NOT SIGNAL TO TURN, I DID NOT HAVE ANY WAY TO DETERMINE MY VEHICLE SPEED OR ANYTHING ABOUT THE OPERATING SYSTEM OF THE VEHICLE. AFTER ABOUT THREE MINUTES ALL LIGHT CAME BACK ON. THIS HAS HAPPENDED TWICE IN A PERIOD OF APPROXIMATELY TWO WEEKS SINCE I LEASED THE VEHICLE ON 07/25/2015.

VEHICLE HAS INTERMITTENT ELECTRICAL AND IGNITION SWITCH ISSUES. IT FREQUENTLY WILL NOT START FOLLOWING MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS AT TURNING THE IGNITION KEY, AND HAS ACTUALLY STALLED IN MOVING TRAFFIC WHILE MY WIFE AND CHILD WERE DRIVING, A CLEAR SAFETY ISSUE. DEALERSHIP HAS TWICE HAD VEHICLE FOR 4-5 DAYS AND INDICATED NO TROUBLE FOUND BOTH TIMES. DEALERSHIP HAS PROVIDED NO ASSISTANCE IN CONTACTING GM (JOE LUNGHAMER CHEVROLET, WATERFORD MI). WE HAVE VIDEO OF PARKED VEHICLE NOT TURNING OVER IN GARAGE FOLLOWING MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS AT TURNING THE IGNITION, WHICH WOULD APPEAR TO BE AN IGNITION SWITCH OR ELECTRICAL DEFECT. VEHICLE HAS ON OCCASION IT HAS STALLED SHORTLY AFTER GETTING UNDERWAY, ALSO A SAFETY CONCERN IF PULLING OUT INTO MOVING TRAFFIC. DEALERSHIP HAS RETURNED VEHICLE TO US WITHOUT REPAIR

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING OUR 2015 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE 2LT IN A CONSTRUCTION ZONE AT THE SPEED LIMIT. THE VEHICLE ABRUPTLY SHOOK SIDE TO SIDE SEVERAL TIMES, THEN SHUT OFF ENGINE POWER ABRUPTLY AND LURCHED FORWARD AND BACK 5 TIMES HARD ENOUGH TO THROW HER INTO THE SEAT BELT. ABOUT THE LURCHING, SHE SAID IT WAS LIKE THE CAR WAS TRYING TO BRAKE TO A STOP. SHE HAD A WHOLE DASHBOARD FULL OF LIGHTS, AND SHE SAW A STATUS MESSAGE IN PLACE OF THE ODOMETER THAT SAID SOMETHING ABOUT THE TRACTION CONTROL TURNING OFF. SHE WAS IN A CONSTRUCTION ZONE WITHOUT ANY SHOULDERS, AND COULDN'T IMMEDIATELY GET OFF THE ROAD, BUT THE ENGINE POWER RETURNED, SO SHE TOOK THE FIRST FREEWAY EXIT AND WAS ABLE TO STOP THE CAR. AFTER SHE RESTARTED THE CAR, IT SEEMED TO BE NORMAL, SO SHE DROVE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT IT IS WORKING PROPERLY NOW, SO THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING.

DURING THE 3X, STABILITRAK LIGHTS CAME ON. ALL TIMES, I PULLED OVER (THANKFULLY NO ACCIDENT), SHUT CAR OFF THEN RESTART. UPON 3X DEALERSHIP REPLACED PLUGS AND COILS, THEN HAD 4TH INCIDENT. DEALERSHIP SAYS NO CODES AND CANNOT RECREATE THE PROBLEM. CAR IS GOING BACK IN TODAY FOR ADDITIONAL DIAGNOSTICS. VEHICLE IS LEASED AND JUST GOT TO 1 YEAR AND 12K MILES (130 MILES DEALER PUT ON TRYING TO RECREATE PROBLEM). THIS IS BEYOND DANGEROUS.

ON SEPT. 17 2016, WHILE DRIVING ALONG THE INTERSTATE AT 70 MPH, THE CAR'S ENGINE SLOWED DRAMATICALLY AND STABILITY TRACK, TRACTION CONTROL, AND SLOW ENGINE WARNING LIGHTS BEGAN TO FLASH. THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. I MANAGED TO GET THE CAR TO THE SIDE OF THE INTERSTATE AND TURNED IT OFF. I CALLED ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE IMMEDIATELY AND THE TECHNICIAN TOLD ME TO TURN OFF THE TRACTION CONTROL. THERE WAS A PUNGENT SMELL ALL INSIDE THE CAR OF GAS AND OTHER FUMES, BUT I DID NOT SEE ANY FLUIDS LEAKING FROM UNDER THE VEHICLE. THE TECHNICIAN TOLD ME TO START THE CAR WITH THE TRACTION CONTROL OFF. I ROLLED DOWN ALL OF THE WINDOWS TO LESSEN THE ODOR. THE CAR STARTED AS USUAL AND I STARTED BACK DOWN THE HIGHWAY. WITHIN 3 MILES THE CAR STOPPED AGAIN, THE SAME WARNING LIGHTS BEGAN FLASHING. I HAD LOST SEVERAL GALLONS OF FUEL IN 3 MILES. I GOT THE CAR TO A PARKING LOT OFF THE INTERSTATE AND IT DIED AND WOULD NOT TURN BACK OVER. WHEN I TRIED TO GET IT TO START, THE IGNITION GOT STUCK AND WOULD NOT STOP TRYING TO TURN OVER. THE CAR WAS LOSING FUEL AND WOULD NOT RUN AT ALL. THE DEALERSHIP SAID IT WAS A FUEL PUMP ISSUE AND THEY REPLACED THE PART SEVERAL DAYS LATER. ON NOV. 11, 2016, AS I DROVE TO WORK THIS MORNING, I WAS AT A RED LIGHT AND WHEN I PUSHED THE ACCELERATOR AND NOTHING HAPPENED. THE CAR BEGAN FLASHING THE EXACT SAME WARNING CODES AS IN SEPT. THE CAR WOULD GO ABOUT 5-10 MPH AND I WAS STRANDED IN A 6 LANE INTERSECTION. I TURNED OFF THE TRACTION CONTROL AND MANAGED TO GET THE CAR INTO A PARKING LOT, ONCE AGAIN. I AM VERY LUCKY THAT I HAVE NOT HAD A SEVERE ACCIDENT WHEN THIS HAS OCCURRED. SOMEONE IS EVENTUALLY GOING TO GET SERIOUSLY HURT OR KILLED WHEN THIS HAPPENS. ALSO, THIS SAME VEHICLE'S BACKUP CAMERA WILL TURN ON WHILE I AM DRIVING DOWN THE STREET. WHEN IT TURNS ON, THE CAR SWITCHES OUT OF DRIVE, WHILE I AM DRIVING FORWARD. I HAVE VIDEOED THIS HAPPENING. *TR

ONE OF THE TIRES ON MY NEW CHEVY TRAVERSE WENT FLAT AND I WAS TOLD THAT THE TIRE COULD NOT BE REPAIRED BECAUSE IT WASN'T A PUNCTURE HOLE. I WAS TOLD IT WAS MORE OF A TEAR AND WHEN I LOOKED AT THE TIRE THE SPLIT LOOKS LIKE IT WAS A CONTINUATION FROM THE PART OF THE TIRE THAT HAS THE TREAD LINE. I FIND OUT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS TIRE AND EVEN THOUGH MY TIRE WAS MANUFACTURED A FEW MONTHS PAST THE RECALL DATE (13TH WEEK, 2015 YEAR), MY VEHICLE IS FROM THE SAME PLANT AND THE TIRE SIZE IS THE EXACT TIRE--GOODYEAR FORTERA P255/65R18 109S. I DO HAVE THE TIRE IN QUESTION AT MY HOUSE AND CAN TAKE PICTURES IF YOU NEED THEM. I WAS VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THIS ISSUE WHEN I TOOK MY VEHICLE IN FOR REPAIR AND ASKED HOW THIS COULD HAPPEN WITH BRAND NEW TIRES AND WAS TOLD THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE TIRE(S). I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT DRIVING THIS VEHICLE AFTER READING THE RECALL NOTICE BECAUSE I DRIVE ON A LOT OF SECONDARY HIGHWAYS THAT ARE VERY ISOLATED AND I DO NOT WANT TO BECOME STRANDING. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF I HAVE A CASE IN REGARDS TO THIS MATTER. THANK YOU.

I HAVE A 2015 CHEVY TRAVERSE WITH 13,000 MILES. I WAS IN A NEIGHBORHOOD AFTER REVERSING OUT OF THE PARKING SPOT AND DRIVING DOWN A SHORT STEEP HILL. I WANTED TO TURN AND TRIED TO DEPRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL BUT IT WAS NOT IN THE PROPER LOCATION. I GLIDED, PUT IN NEUTRAL AND PRESSED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO STOP. IT WAS AT NIGHT AND I DID NOT SEE THE LOCATION OF THE BRAKE PEDAL OTHER THAN THAT IT WAS WHERE IT SHOULD BE. I PUT IN PARK AND TURNED THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON AND THE BRAKE PEDAL APPEARED TO BE IN THE CORRECT POSITION AND WORKING. I HAD CHEVY CHECK IT OUT AND THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. I DON'T KNOW IF THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS STUCK TO THE FLOOR AND IF I HAD PRESSED IT IF IT WOULD HAVE WORKED. IT SEEMS TO HAVE AN AIR LEAK SOUND SOMETIMES WHEN DEPRESSING BRAKE AND THEY JUST SAID IT WAS NORMAL THOUGH I DON'T RECALL HEARING THAT FOR 13,000 MILES BEFORE. I HAVE NO OTHER VEHICLE TO DRIVE BUT NOW FEAR FOR MY LIFE IF THE BRAKES GO OUT ON A HIGHWAY.

11/3/2015

I NOTICED THERE WAS A RECALL ON SIMILAR YEAR MAKES/MODELS IN REGARDS TO BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURES. MY 2015 CHEVY TRAVERSE FREQUENTLY HAS BRAKING ISSUES RELATED TO THE RECALL. IT OFTEN ALWAYS HAS NOISE FROM THE BRAKE PEDAL WHEN DEPRESSED THAT SOUNDS LIKE AIR BEING EXPELLED FROM THE LINE. THIS HAPPENS AT MULTIPLE RATES OF SPEEDS IN MULTIPLE DRIVING CONDITIONS; INCLUDING SLOW CITY DRIVING, HIGHWAY AT HIGH SPEEDS, IN RAIN AND IN SNOW AS WELL AS DRY DAYS. THIS HAS OCCURRED FROM THE DAY I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN AUGUST 2016. IS THE 2015 CHEVY TRAVERSE BEING INVESTIGATED AS WELL OR WILL IT BE? THANK YOU!
