I WAS DRIVING MY 2016 TRAVERSE AFTER A CANCER TREATMENT HOME WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN MSGS ON MY DASH STARTED APPEARIBG. SERVICE STABILITRAK, TRACTION CONTROL OFF. THE CAR STARTED SHUTTERING AND THE GUY BEHIND ME REAR ENDED ME WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR. SINCE THEN I HAVE PUT 2 POWER STEERING PUMPS IN, AND HAD IT ST THE SHOP FOR SEVERAL TIMES THAT IT HAD SAID ABOUT SERVICIB SRABILITRAK. I HAVE READ OVER 300 HRS OF COMPLAINTS GAVING THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE STABILITRSK. I HAVE ALSO REPLACED SPEED SENSORS AND MODULES. THIS IS A TRASH VECHILE AND NO ONE FROM GM CARES OR RESPONDS. WHEN SOMEONE CHILD DOES MAYBE IT WILL GET THEIR ATTENTION. A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT IS WHAT I PLAN ON PURSUING. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN MY CHILD. I HOPE SOMEONE READS THIS N CAN CARE ENOUGJ TO HELP. THE CAR HAS LESS THEN 65000 MILES

POWER STEERING PERIODICALLY SEEMS TO GO OUT. IT IS WORSE AT LOW SPEEDS AND TRYING TO PARK. CHECKED POWER STEERING FLUID AND IT IS FINE. AT LOW RPMS IT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO TURN THE WHEEL. WHEN TURNING FROM ONE STREET INTO ANOTHER AT LOW SPEED FEARFUL OF STEERING GOING OUT AND CAUSING A CRASH AS CAR WILL NOT TURN SHORT. HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS CONCERNS ON THIS ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL AND EARLIER MODELS THAT HAVE HAD RECALLS. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE.

POWER STEERING PUMP CONNECTION ISSUE. PUMP KICKS IN AND OUT CAUSE STEERING WHEEL TO SUDDENLY STIFFEN. CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS IF IN TRAFFIC. SOME RECALL NEEDS TO TAKE ACTION TO SAVE LIVES ON THIS SERIOUS MATTER. NO RECALLS AS OF NOW I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN I FELT A SUDDEN STIFFNESS IN THE STEERING WHEEL. GOT OFF AND CHECKED THE FLUID. IT WAS TOPPED OFF AND IT WAS EVEN HARDER TO MANEUVER WHEN VEHICLE IS STATIONED. *TR

THE BLIND SPOT DETECTION SYSTEM WARNING SENSORS HAVE FAILED AND WILL NOT WORK. THIS HAS CAUSED ME TO HAVE SEVERAL NEAR MISSIES IN DANGEROUS DRIVING SITUATIONS WITH OTHER VEHICLES. I FEEL UNSAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE AND DO NOT HAVE THE MONEY TO REPAIR IT. *TR

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AT 56K MILES. VEHICLE HAVING MISFIRE WHILE DRIVING, ROUGH IDLE WHILE SITTING AND SLUGGISH AT TIMES. MISFIRE AND ROUGH IDLE NOT HAPPENING ALL THE TIME. HAD GENERIC CODE CHECK DONE BEFORE I COULD GET INTO DEALERSHIP TO SEE WHAT I WAS LOOKING AT... MULTIPLE CODES WITH RUNNING LEAN AND 02 SENSOR. WAS ABLE TO GET INTO DEALER AFTER THE WEEKEND AND THEY DID DIAGNOSTIC. FOUND POWER STEERING GEAR INLET HOSE LEAKING ONTO O2 SENSOR (B1 S1) CAUSING THE WHOLE PROBLEM. NOT COVERED UNDER POWERTRAIN WARRANTY. I AM UNABLE TO AFFORD THE DEALERSHIP REPAIR COST AT THIS TIME AND HAVE BEEN SEEING WHERE OLDER MODELS HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH POWER STEERING PUMP FAILURE AND MORE RECENT MODELS HAVING LEAKS DUE TO HOSES BEING TOO CLOSE TO OTHER HOSES. SO I AM CONCERNED WITH REPLACING THE HOSE AND SENSOR AND HAVING THE SAME ISSUE OCCUR AGAIN. *TR

VEHICLE SWADDLES HEAVILY AFTER A CERTAIN SPEED TO THE POINT WHERE MY CHILDREN HAVE HIT THE SIDES OF THEIR HEADS WITH THE WINDOWS/DOORS. MAKES A LOUD NOISE IN THE FRONT WHEN DRIVING AND TURNING, YOU CAN FEEL THE GRINDING NOISE VIBRATIONS ON THE BOTTOM OF FEET.
