AIR BAGS, STRUCTURE:BODY
Air bag on right side is off, Vehicle front dash has the air bag needs to be serviced. this started as of the 1st month of purchased, took to dealership and they could not duplicated the problem. The air bag would go off and off from time to time, but by the time I had my appointment at the dealership it would go back on. Now I am out of warranty and the light is always red that the air bag on the right side is off. I noticed that when we would close the back of the vehicle after placing groceries the light would go off and when closing again it would go off. Now it is always on indicating that the right air bag is not on.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
The headlights constantly burn out, at a rate of one bulb every two months. It would be a tragic safety event if they both went out at the same time. The design of the headlight system is poor in that you have to replace the light through the inner fender, making it nearly impossible to do without touching the bulb. Poor design and something needs to be done to address this issue.

STEERING:HYDRAULIC POWER ASSIST:POWER STEERING FLUID
The contact owns a 2015 Chevrolet Traverse. The contact stated while driving at 5 MPH and turning into a parking spot, the steering wheel inadvertently lost power steering assist functionality. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact stated she was able to forcefully steer the steering wheel with the assistance of her son and the vehicle was parked. The dealer was notified of the failure and advised the contact that they would be able to diagnose the vehicle in the next 3 weeks. The contact also stated that she noticed that the steering wheel would regain power steering functionality while the accelerator pedal was depressed and would lose power steering functionality after releasing the accelerator pedal. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 115,000.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
From almost the time it left the factory, the onboard navigation system included in this vehicle has contained out of date and dangerous mapping. Drivers should be warned not to rely on the system until proper updates are provided by the manufacturer. This is particularly dangerous in areas where new construction has altered entrance and exit points on highways. Countless attempts to work with the manufacturer to obtain an update have fallen on deaf ears. On a recent trip the outdated mapping recommended a 150 mile detour where none was ultimately needed.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Vehicle started bucking and shaking when taking off from traffic light. With excessive speed 50-60MPH that followed the bucking. Tried applying both feet by standing on the brakes. Car started to slow down, only to speed back up until, the vehicle could be shut off. Lights on dash were flashing. On such a heavy traveled, congested road, someone could have been killed. My car is scheduled to be looked at by Dealer.

VEHICLE BEGAN STUTTERING WHEN UPSHIFT OR DOWNSHIFT 2ND-3RD GEARS LOW SPEEDS. TOOK TO DEALER. AT FIRST COULD NOT REPLICATE BUT THEN FOUND GM SERVICE BULLETIN # 18-NA-358 (SEE ATTACHED). FIRST RELEASED IN NOVEMBER 2018 AND MOST RECENTLY UPDATED OCTOBER 2020. IT LISTS THIS EXACT PROBLEM AND A FIX FOR THE PROBLEM. IT INCLUDES MANY GM VEHICLES INCLUDING MY 2015 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. THE DEALER SAID THERE WAS NOT A RECALL THAT THIS WAS JUST A NORMAL BULLETIN TO HELP TECHNICIANS HANDLE PREVIOUSLY REPORTED PROBLEMS. I WOULD REQUEST SOMEONE TO REVIEW FOR A POSSIBLE RECALL. MY TRAVERSE ONLY HAS 94,000 MILES.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I PURCHASED A USED 2015 CHEVY TRAVERSE FROM A CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP WITH 58435 MILES. WITHIN 200 MILES, THE REAR AC WENT OUT WHILE DRIVING TO AN AIR SHOW IN JUNE 2020. I LIVE IN THE SOUTHEAST WHERE TEMPS CAN GET VERY HOT AND HUMID QUICKLY, AND I HAVE TWO YOUNG CHILDREN. SO NOW, MY CAR HAS BECOME A HAZARD TO MY CHILDREN AS I AM NOT ABLE TO DRIVE THEM ANYWHERE WHEN THE SUN IS OUT. IT IS UNIMAGINABLE TO LEAVE A CHILD IN A HOT CAR, SO WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE WHEN CHEVROLET HAS KNOWN ABOUT THE AC ISSUES IN ITS VEHICLES FOR YEARS!!! I'M TIRED OF CAR MANUFACTURERS NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR SHOTTY WORK! HOW, IN GOOD FAITH, CAN I DRIVE MY CHILDREN IN MY CAR, IN THE SOUTHEAST, WITH NO AC? WINDOWS DOWN DOESN'T WORK WITH SMALL CHILDREN AND WIND IS BLOWING IN THEIR FACE ON A HIGHWAY OR IN TRAFFIC AND THERE IS NO WIND. WHEN SPEAKING TO THE DEALERSHIP ABOUT GETTING IT FIXED, IT IS GOING TO COST $1400 AND THEY ARE AWARE THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH THESE VEHICLES. HOWEVER, THE CONSMER NOW HAS TO PAY FOR A KNOWN FAULTY AC. CHEVROLET HAS ALREADY ISSUED AN UPDATED PART! THEY KNOW, AND YET THERE IS NO RECALL. HAVING A MANUFACTURER KNOW ABOUT A FAULTY AC IS A SAFETY PROBLEM, FOR CHILDREN. PERIOD. AND THEY NEED TO DO THE RIGHT THING AND OWN UP TO IT. JUST GOOGLE KNOWN AC PROBLEMS IN 2015 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. YOU'LL SEE, IT'S NOT JUST THE STYLE AND MAKE OF MY VEHCILE, IT'S ACADIA, BUICK AND GMC VEHICLES.

ENGINE, SEAT BELTS
I COME TO A STOP THEN MY SUV STARTS TO SHAKE THEN TURNS OFF AS I AM AT A LIGHT OR ABOUT TO TURN AT A STOP. WHEN I PUSH AN THE GAS PEDAL THE WHOLE SUV SHAKES AND SOMETIMES THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TURNS ON RIGHT BEFORE THE WHOLE CAR JUST TURN OFF WHEN I COME TO A STOP. I'VE HAD ALL 4 CO2 SENSORS CHANGED. EVERYTHING THE DEALERSHIP HAS TOLD ME TO FIX I HAVE PAID TO HAVE DONE ON MY CAR. AND YET MY PROBLEM IS THE SAME THING FOR THE PAST 3 YEARS. I COULDN'T RETURN IT BECAUSE I WAITED TO LONG AFTER MY WARRANTY. NOW I AM TOLD TO KEEP PAYING FOR SERVICES I HAVE ALREADY PAID TO HAVE DONE. EVEN THOUGH IT HAPPENS TO BE THE SAME THING THE SYSTEM IS SHOWING UP ON THE COMPUTER. I HAVE A LEMON ON MY HANDS AND NEED HELP FIGURING OUT WHAT CAN BE DONE TO FIX THIS.
