POWER TRAIN, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Nearly every time I go to turn the power off the screen says "shift to park" but it's in park. The engine turns off and the vehicle SEEMS to be in park, but who knows? Then it keeps "dinging" and won't turn off. When I walk away with the keys it honks at me. I'm assuming it eventually turns off, I've been setting the parking brake. I checked google and lots of people are talking about this issue - I would recommend GM do a recall for this as it's super annoying and potentially a safety issue if the vehicle doesn't know what gear its in.

Shift to park issue- on a weekly basis shift to park shows up on my vehicle. The only way to fix the issue is reverse multiple times put vehicle in drive and then park hoping the issue will resolve on its own. At times it does not and I have to retry the method on most cases it does resolve after a few minutes but the issue occurs again a few days later. •Vehicle is available for inspection, I have brought my vehicle to the dealership but they won’t fix the issue until I pay for services and I am unable to at this time. •Safety is at risk because If your vehicle is already parked and it still states "shift to park," it could indicate a malfunction in the vehicle's electronic systems also this could potentially lead to unexpected issues, such as the vehicle rolling away if the parking mechanism fails. •This vehicle has been inspected by the dealership during oil changes and they have been made aware of this current issue with the vehicle. •No warring displays besides the notification of shift to park.

When parking vehicle and putting shifter in park, an audible alarm was dinging and the dash board was flashing shift to park. It was already in park. I did some things and it stopped. Many times I have my 7 grandchildren in the car with me. This has happened more than once and I feel its unsafe to exit my car until I get it to stop. I don’t know whats causing it. My husband said it happen to him too.

I purchased a 2022 Traverse in December 2021 and it just hit 40,000 miles. Now the shift to park error code keeps showing up when placed in park. I have to turn on/off multiple times and try shifting to and from park. It has been consistently erroring out over the last 2 weeks. I believe this is a safety issue due to the fact that it appears it's not going into park. This should absolutely be considered for a safety recall issue on these vehicle, cause my understanding is that this is happening in many Chevrolet Traverses and Acadias. I was given a quote of $275 for repair.

When putting vehicle in park the vehicle will say “Switch to park” even though vehicle is registering it’s in Park position. There are many other people online claiming this is a recall on 2022 Chevy traverses. It says this may be a faulty switch on the transmission.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I have a 2022 Chevrolet Traverse. OnStar suddenly stopped working in my vehicle. Chevy dealership diagnosed it and said that the telecommunications control module is bad and needs replaced. I haven’t even had this vehicle that long and suddenly the telecommunications control module is bad. This is a safety issue because when traveling and if something were to happen (accident, emergency) I have no access to my OnStar. Also, I am being told that I have to pay for this out of pocket and the part is on back order and will not be here until mid July (I have to wait another month and a half).

Auto developed a rattle and we could not locate the noise. Then we started hearing an exhaust leak and that was leaving carbon deposits on the flex pipe and bracket. Took car to dealership and it was 11,000 out of warranty. The broken pipe and gasket were replaced at my cost. This appears to be a known issue caused by broken or poor weld. GM has a service bulletin for this issue (PIP5681C) but it just covers cars up to year 2021 and not the 2022 year.

The front exhaust pipe on my 2022 Chevy Traverse has a defect which mirrors existing NHTSA recalls on 2019-2021 Chevy Traverse models. The bracket that attaches the two singular pipes together rusts out and pulls the bracket away from the pipe, exposing a loud exhaust leak, resulting in loss of power and backpressure to the motor. GM is aware of this problem, and has no available parts to resolve it and has offered no alternative repairs in the absence of parts. This makes my vehicle undriveable. That results in my employer risking my employment because I cannot travel to the office. Because there is no official recall on this, no loaner car can be offered by GM, and no rental car can be covered either. Sands Glendale Chevrolet has inspected this vehicle and has confirmed this "has been happening a lot" and has no solutions for me.

About 1 week ago, I began getting "Shift To Park" warnings/notifications when I would park the car and turn off the engine. To make it stop, I usually have to turn the car back on, shift to a different gear, shift back to Park, wiggle the gear shift around side to side and back and forth within the Park gear. Sometimes it will have remedied when I attempt to turn the car off the second time, and other times I need to do the same procedure again. In looking it up online, this is a known issue, and an ongoing issue, with GM vehicles over the past several years with no fix or attention to mandate a correction. This seems to effect GM vehicles of multiple models and can allow the vehicle to roll (and my driveway is a small hill on the top of the hill/cul d' sac that we live in). When it fails to recognize the vehicle is in Park, I cannot exit the car, the alerts and chimes continue and would ultimately drain my battery if it failed to recognize that it was in Park. I do have an appointment scheduled for the dealership to check since I am under warranty still. My vehicle only has less than 29,000 miles and is not driven on rough or challenging terrain, with local drives of less than 10 miles generally. Only 1 driver for this vehicle as well.

The contact owns a 2022 Chevrolet Traverse.

The vehicle was taken to the local dealer who determined that the exhaust pipes were cracked and had become unsecured and that the entire exhaust system needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The contact was concerned that carbon monoxide could enter the vehicle creating a safety hazard while operating the vehicle. The failure mileage was 50,300.

per the tech at the dealership the noise in my engine is coming from the front exhaust pipe near the hanger it is starting to rust and has made a small hole that is causing the excessive engine noise. gm has a special coverage bulletine for the 2021 traverse (n22238550) this is the same exact thing my 2022 travers is doing. This is so unsafe , you can smell fumes in the vehicle and the car is getting bad mileage and the engine is very loud. The dealer and chevy c/s said there is nothing they can do because the 2022 traverse are not included in the gm special coverage(n22238550). Gm needs to take response ability for the 2022 as well and fix the issue and replace the pipe and the catalytic converter. Hope someone will listen and take this serious and make gm do the right thing for the consumer.
