2015 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE Complaints

AIRBAG LIGHT ON AND OFF, CONNECTIONS ALL FEEL TIGHT UNDER PASSENGER SEAT BUT LIGHT WARNING CAME ON 3 TIMES IN 2 DAYS.

POWER STEERING PUMP AND RACK AND PINION NEED TO BE REPLACED. $1500. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL AS MANY PEOPLE HAVE THIS COMPLAINT.

SINCE AUGUST( AROUND 08/25/19), I'VE BEEN HAVING A SERVICE AIR BAG NOTIFCATION WHICH I'VE TOOK TO THE CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP SERVICES. I WAS TOLD THERE WERE A SENOR TO BE REPLACED AND PAYED FOR THE REPLACEMENT. SEPTEMBER ( AROUND 09/18/2019), THE SERVICE AIR BAG CAME ON AGAIN LESS THAN A MONTH WITH THE SAME NOTIFICATION. I WAS TOLD THEN THERE WAS A SECOND SENOR THAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. HERE I AM NOW IN NOVEMBER (11/20/19) WITH THE SERVICE AIR BAG NOTIFCATION ON MY DASH BOARD AGAIN FOR THE THIRD TIME. I'M IN THE PROCESS OF CONTACTING CHEVROLET ONCE MORE ABOUT THIS. I RESERACH THE RECALL BUT THERE IS NO RECALL FOR MY VEHICLE. I'M UNSURE IF ANYONE ELSE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES. THE LIGHT EITHER POP UP AT THE START OF TURNING ON THE VEHICLE OR DURING THE DRIVE. NORMALLY ON THE FIRST DAY OF NOTIFICATION IT WILL GO OFF AFTER SECOND CRANK BUT WITHIN 3 DAYS WILL RETURN AND WILL NOT TURN OFF. THIS PART IS NOT A CHEAP PART PLUS ADDING DEALERSHIP FEES.

WE HAVE 2 ISSUES. 1ST WAS IN JULY 2019, OUR POWER STEERING PUMP WENT OUT WITH ON 60,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE AND WE WERE TOLD THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE TRAVERSES. 2ND CONCERN IS IN SEPTEMBER 2019 OUR VEHICLE LOST ACCELERATION CAPABILITIES ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE DISPLAY SAID HAVE STABILITY CONTROL SERVICED. WE HAD TROUBLE MAKING IT HOME AND AFTER I TURNED THE ENGINE OFF FOR A FEW HOURS IT THEN RAN FINE. IT WAS LIKE A COMPUTER GLITCH ON THE HIGHWAY WHICH OCCURRED FOR NO APPARENT REASON AND WAS VERY UNSAFE. WE WERE DRIVING STRAIGHT 50 MPH ON A CLEAR NICE AFTERNOON AND SLOWED TO 25 WHEN IT HAPPENED AND IT WOULDN'T ACCELERATE PROPERLY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS AND REAR EXTERIOR LIGHTING RETAINED WATER EACH TIME IT RAINED BETWEEN THE BODY AND BULBS. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED THAT THE WATER INSIDE THE LIGHT BULBS COULD CAUSE A SHORT CIRCUIT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BELLAVIA CHEVROLET BUICK (199 NJ-17, EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ 07073, (201) 355-2885) WHERE THE LIGHT BULBS WERE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED BEFORE THE CONTACT ARRIVED HOME. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE SAME DEALER, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED BECAUSE THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 24,351.

WHILE DRIVING, MY REVERSE CAMERA CAME ON, SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT, TRACTION CONTROL TURNED OFF, ALERTS FOR PARKING ASSIST OFF, SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL, SERVICE STABILITRAX. LOSS ENGINE POWER AND WAS NOT ABLE TO ACCELERATE OVER 10MPH WHILE FLOORING THE GAS. THIS HAPPENED ON A LOW TRAFFIC ROAD THANKFULLY OR ONE OF MY CHILDREN COULD HAVE DIED IN AN ACCIDENT. THE ALERTS BEGAN WHILE DRIVING DOWN A HILL, THE ENGINE LOSS WAS NOTED WHEN I TURNED. APPARENTLY THERE ARE PAGES AND PAGES OF FORUMS REGARDING THIS EXACT ISSUE WITH THE TRAVERSE. HOW IS THERE NOT A RECALL? HOW MANY PEOPLE MUST DIE IN ACCIDENTS CAUSED BY ENGINE POWER LOSS BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING?!

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!

AIR BAG LIGHT CONTINUES TO COME ON EVEN AFTER TAKING IT TO DEALERSHIP TO GET THE RECALL FIXED. DEALERSHIP TEAM SAYS IT IS FIXED BUT LIGHT CONTINUES TO COME ON. I'M NOT SURE IF THE MAINTENANCE TEAM HAS REALLY FIXED THE RECALL OR THEY ARE JUST RESETTING THE ALERT.

WHILE DRIVING, THE DASH OF THE TRAVERSE WILL FLICKER ON AND OFF. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, THE HEADUNIT WILL RESTART AND FLASH A COUPLE TIMES BEFORE STAYING ON. THE BACK UP CAMERA WILL ALSO TURN ON RANDOMLY, WHILE IN MOTION. WHEN THE DASH FLICKERS TO OFF, I AM NOT ABLE TO USE MY BLINKER OR SEE MY MILEAGE.

THE FIRST TIME MY AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYED ON FOR SEVERAL WEEKS AND THEN ONE DAY WAS NOT ON. JUST RECENTLY ON 5/15/19 MY SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. MY CAR HAS NOT BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT AT ALL. MY WINDSHIELD WIPER FLUID WILL NOT DISPERSE AS WELL WIPER ARM HAND WAS REPLACED LINES WERE CHECKED AND FLUID IN THE RESERVOIR AND STILL NO FLUID AVAILABLE WHICH AFFECTS VISIBILITY WHEN ANYTHING SPLASHING ON THE WINDSHIELD. THE SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON SUDDENLY ONE DAY WHEN I STARTED UP MY CAR.
