ENGINE
WHILE DRIVING TO WORK, I HAD SLOWED DOWN BEHIND A BUS AND AS I STARTED TO ACCELERATE AND CAR SUDDENLY SHUTS DOWN. THE ENGINE LIGHT, STABIL TRAK, TRACTION CONTROL OFF, REDUCED ENGINE POWER MESSAGES COME ON. THE CAR SUDDENLY SLOWS DOWN LEAVING 1-2 MINUTES TO GET OVER. ONCE THIS MESSAGE COMES ON, THE CAR SUDDENLY STARTS TO SHAKE HARD ALL OVER AND IDLES REALLY ROUGH. IF I TRY TO SHIFT IT INTO ANY GEAR, IT COMPLETELY SHUTS OFF. THE CAR IS INOPERABLE AND HAS TO BE TOWED. MILEAGE ESTIMATED AT 35,000.

ENGINE
WHILE DRIVING AT 60 MPH ON MY MORNING COMMUTE TO WORK, I WAS ABOUT 15 MILES INTO MY DRIVE WHEN SUDDENLY THE WARNING LIGHTS CHIME AND THE STABIL TRAK/REDUCED ENGINE POWER, AND TRACTION CONTROL OFF WARNING MESSAGES COME ON. THE CAR SUDDENLY REDUCES POWER AND TAKES ABOUT 1-2 MINUTES BEFORE ALL POWER GOES OFF AND CAR WILL NOT DRIVE ANY MORE. ONCE I TRY TO PUT CAR IN ANY KIND OF GEAR AFTERWARDS, CAR SHUTS OFF AND WILL NOT TURN BACK ON. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. CAR HAD TO BE TOWED. DEALERSHIP FIXED A CAMSHAFT/CRANKSHAFT SENSOR. DID NOT WORK.

ENGINE
WHILE DRIVING IN THE MORNING COMMUTE TO WORK, THE CAR WARNING LIGHTS SUDDENLY CHIME WITH SERVICE STABIL-TRAK, REDUCED ENGINE POWER, TRACTION CONTROL OFF. THE CAR SUDDENLY STARTS TO SLOW DOWN. I HAVE ABOUT 1-2 MINUTES BEFORE THE CAR WILL COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. ONCE IT COMPLETELY SHUTS DOWN, IT STARTS TO ROUGH IDLE AND THE WHOLE CAR SHAKES. IF I TRY TO SHIFT IT INTO ANY GEAR, IT SHUTS DOWN AUTOMATICALLY. CAR BECOMES UNABLE TO BE DRIVEN AND HAS TO BE TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. TYPICALLY ONCE THE REPAIR HAS BEEN MADE, IT IS ABOUT 3 DAYS UNTIL THE ISSUE HAPPENS AGAIN. I HAVE BEEN LEFT STRANDED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD 3 SEPARATE TIMES NOW. I HAVE MISSED WORK, BEEN LATE TO WORK, AND HAD TO ASK COWORKERS TO GIVE ME RIDES HOME WHEN IT IS COMPLETELY OUT OF THE WAY. CAR ONLY HAS ABOUT 36,200 MILES ON IT.

SERVICE BRAKES
I BOUGHT THIS CAR USED, AND SHORTLY AFTER NOTICED THERE WAS A SQUEAKING SOUND WHENEVER YOU DEPRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL. I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY DEDUCED IT WAS THE BRAKE BOOSTER. THEY SAID THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE TRAVERSE BUT IT HAD NOT BEEN RECALLED YET. I SPENT OVER $400 GETTING THIS FIXED.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
ON OCTOBER 13, 2017 I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 50 MPH. WHEN SUDDENLY THE CAR DE-ACCELERATED ITS VELOCITY AT 15 TO 20 MPH. THEN NOTICE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL DISPLAYING TRACTION CONTROL ON AND CYCLING TO OFF. IT ALSO DISPLAYED STABILIZER CONTROL SERVICE WITH A FLASHING CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. IT WAS VERY FRIGHTENED WHEN VEHICLES BEHIND ME HAD TO COME TO A REDUCE SPEED ALMOST RESULTING IN AN ACCIDENT WITH THE RISK OF GETTING HIT ON THE BACK OR TAIL OF THE VEHICLE. HAD TO PULL OVER CHANGING FROM ONE OF THE TWO MIDDLE LANES AT SLOW VELOCITY WHICH WAS A DANGEROUS MANEUVER TO MAKE IT TO THE SHOULDER. I'VE READ THIS SAME ISSUE ON LINE WITH OTHER OWNERS ON THIS TYPE OF VEHICLE. THEREFORE A RECALL OR AN INVESTIGATION WITH THIS ISSUE SHOULD BE DONE.

AIR BAGS
MY PASSENGER FRONT SEAT AIRBAG IS APPARENTLY MALFUNCTION AS THE "SERVICE AIRBAGS" CONTINUES TO LIGHT UP EACH TIME SOMEONE SITS IN THAT SEAT. I PURCHASED THE CAR IN FEBRUARY 2017 FROM TEXAS AUTO DIRECT. I GOOGLED MY VIN AND IT SAYS NO OPEN RECALLS. I DID NOTICE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE. HOW CAN I FIND OUT IF THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE AND IF MY VEHICLE WAS EVER SERVICED FOR IT? *TR

THERE ARE A LOT OF PAINT DINGS. SOME VERY SMALL SOME LARGER. MOSTLY IN THE FRONT HALF OF THE VEHICLE. MY DRIVING HABITS AND DESTINATIONS HAVE NOT CHANGED OVER THE YEARS AND THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I'VE EVER SEEN THIS MANY DINGS IN ONE VEHICLE IN A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. I DID MENTION IT TO THE DEALERSHIPS SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND OF COURSE THERE ARE NO KNOWN ISSYES WITH THE PAINT FAILING. ITS BEEN APPROXIMATELY 3 MTHS. SINCE I WAS TOLD THIS AND IT STILL SITS VERY UNEASY WITH ME!!!! SOONER OR LATER THINGS DINGS WILL START RUSTING. I STILL HAVE JUST OVER 5 YRS. LEFT TO PAY FOR THIS VEHICLE!

AIR BAGS
76,600 MILES AND THE SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT IS ILLUMINATED ON MY DASH . DEALER IS AWARE OF ISSUE. 2013 TRAVERSES WERE RECALLED FOR THE SAME ISSUE BUT 2014 ONLY RECEIVED A SERVICE BULLETIN TO EXTEND THE WARRANTY TO 72,000 OR 6 YEARS WHICH EVER CAME FIRST. THE AIR BAGS WILL NOT WORK WHEN THE LIGHT IS ON PUTTING MY CHILDREN AND I AT SERIOUS RISK IF INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. THIS PROBLEM IS DUE TO A WIRE HARNESS UNDER THE SEAT THAT NEEDS TO BE SOLDERED WITH A SPECIALIZED BY THE DEALER. THE DEALERSHIP STATED THE LONGER THE LIGHT STAYS ON THE LESS OF A CHANCE THE AIRBAGS WILL WORK EVEN AFTER THE REPAIR IS COMPLETED. THERE ARE SO HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME ISSUE FROM OTHER 2014 TRAVERSE OWNERS. I CALLED THE ESTERO BAY CHEVROLET YESTERDAY TO NOTIFY THEM OF THE ISSUE AND THE SERVICE MANAGER KEVIN TOLD ME THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY A $119 DIAGNOSIS FEE AND FOR THE REPAIR TO FIX THE ISSUE. THE REPAIR COULD COST BETWEEN $300 - $1,200. THE DEALER SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR FIXING THIS SAFETY ISSUE.THIS PROBLEM IS BECAUSE OF THEIR CHOICE TO USE LOW QUALITY PARTS OR THEIR MANUFACTURING IN THE FACTORY AND NOT A NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR ISSUE. I CAN NOT AFFORD TO FIX THIS ISSUE AND AM CONCERNED THAT THERE IS A CHANCE EVEN AFTER PAYING FOR THE REPAIRS THAT MY AIRBAGS WILL NOT WORK TO PROTECT MY FAMILY IF INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT.
