The contact stated that the failure was related to Special Coverage Adjustment: N212356540 (Front Exhaust Pipe).

The manufacturer confirmed there were no open recalls on the VIN. The failure mileage was approximately 95,000.

The transmission on my 2020 Chevrolet Traverse has experienced severe shuddering problems when shifting gears. The vehicle is not old and the integrity of the safety of the vehicle puts myself and my family at risk whenever driving it now. The dealer quotes approximately $8,000 for a fix and a similar search online sees other customers with the same issues. Chevrolet should recall the affected vehicles and not force the consumer to pay out of pocket for the repairs.

My 2020 traverse has the exact same issue as the 2019, and 2022 models, both of which have active recalls. I contacted Chevy and their response to me was that there was no recall on my model.

The contact owns a 2020 Chevrolet Traverse. The contact stated that the "Shift to Park" message was displayed on the instrument panel while attempting to park the vehicle. The contact also stated that the ESC (Electronic Stability Control) warning light was displayed while at a complete stop, and an audible chime was heard during the failure. In addition, the START/STOP function failed after removing the foot from the brake pedal while at a stop light. The vehicle shut off without warning as the contact attempted to depress the accelerator pedal. The contact stated that a motorist assisted with pushing the vehicle to the side of the road. The contact called for Roadside Assistance and a Police Officer assisted with jumpstarting the vehicle. The Police Officer then escorted the contact to a nearby gas station where the contact purchased a new battery. Initially after the battery replacement, the contact experienced no failures with the vehicle; however, the shift to park failure had recently returned. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline to report the failure. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 135,000.

I took my vehicle to the shop for noise while driving. It was diagnosed as a cracked flex pipe. Upon research, the 2019 and 2021 models had recalls for the same issue, but not 2020. I did find a bulletin from gm including all models of traverse stating the cause could be a faulty weld. My vehicle looks the exact same as the bulletin. This is a safety issue as a hole in the exhaust can cause exhaust to backflow into the cabin. I'm very lucky and thankful me and my kids have not yet been medically affected.

On 10/12/24, I received an error code that my charging system needed serviced. I was about an hour from my house when I saw the error. I immediately turned on the voltage display and it said the voltage was 11.8. As I was driving home I had an additional error message that said entering battery saver mode. Luckily, I made it home before I was left stranded on the side of the road in the middle of the night. With only 57,323 miles on my car, I had NO idea it would be the alternator. I took my car to Auto Zone to have the battery tested and they said it was fine. I had my mechanic check on Monday 10/14/24, and it turns out the alternator was indeed bad. S

Special coverage for 2019 and 2021 model traverses for front exhaust pipe - but not for 2020 models and it’s the exact same issue.

2020 traverse was at Chevy dealership for state inspection & emissions test, maintenance service- oil & filter change, rotate tires, check all systems, update system & computer, flush & fill all fluids in car. Chevy certified technician preformed vehicle health inspection, multi point inspection . Car was not picking up acceleration will on a 351 mile trip alone, after stopping I notice the car hood was not on correctly when opened the oil cap was not in place but was on molding, oil had been pouring out leaving engine with no oil, the technician had not replaced cap during service and had no replaced brake fluid, antifreeze coolant, washer fluid and transmission fluid. He had force closed the hood, which could have opened at any time while driving, there was oil pouring from vehicle causes hazardous driving for myself and everyone else on highway. Car has OnStar coverage as well as Chevy safe driver function’s, and alerts on all systems all fluid levels, tire pressure, temperature ext. non of these alerts showed or alerted me putting my safety and the safety of others on the roads in danger. The technician in fact disarmed these systems and alerts when servicing my vehicle. Ciocca Chevrolet dealership in Quakertown pa, caused permanent damage to the engine and power train system, as well as putting myself and others in serious danger. The car was towed by OnStar roadside assist back to dealership where they tried to down play the severity of the damage . I refused to take back the car due to it not being drivable or safe. The service manager agreed to buy out my loan and the car is on lot for sale with tag stating ‘sold as is , no warranty” . Due to the computer system being compromised there is no data showing the service or showing the car being in distress , this issue needs to be know as driving this vehicle with out knowledge of engine damage caused from dealership failure to add all fluids during service puts driver, passenger’s and all others in danger.
