2014 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE Complaints

I had a major accident on Thursday, 10/14/2021 where I was it on my drivers side with the other party hitting me around 50-55mph. When the crash occurred, none of the airbags deployed. My side airbag should have deployed. That is a major safety issue, and I might not have hit my head or the steering wheel had they deployed.

I recently purchased a 2014 Chevy traverse LT. While driving on a four lane busy road with a 65 mph speed limit my vehicle without warning said “traction control off, reduced engine power” and within seconds I had no power stealing and I went from driving 65 mph to 10 in less then 10 seconds, the car started violently shaking as well. I had to aggressively redirect the steering wheel to get to the side of the road and turn the vehicle off & wait a few minutes & restart it. It seemed to fix the problem. Within a week it happened again, on the way home from work, and I was nearly rear ended at a 60 mph speed and I am now terrified to drive the car more then a mile up the road to my kids school, I have two small children and this has put us in an almost near death situation TWICE! I purchased this car so I would have a reliable vehicle for my kids and I and it’s been terrifying for my children and I to own this Chevy! The dealership I purchased the vehicle from is over two hours away, I also live in a rural area so to have it diagnosed I’d be having to drive at least 15 miles and I’m terrified to do so

When starting the suv, Service air bag comes on and constantly stays on. Dealer says there are no service recalls but online found numerous same year problems referring to this cause.

Air Bag Light on States Service Soon. Light stays on all when is on and Passenger side Light indicate word off. Took SUV to Dealer to service the problem. Dealer service claim the connector under the drivers seat needs repaired. This is a Chevrolet SUV 2014 Traverse vehicle and it has a "Bad Air Bag System", "Air Bag System With Bad Wiring".

One day as I was driving on the freeway, the vehicle's engine light/airbag light came on and the vehicle then went into "engine power reduced mode" I was lucky to be close to a turn-off. I was able to get the vehicle off the road safely. I turned off the vehicle and check it. Then turned the vehicle back on and all lights were off. It was shocking, the car was driving normally. I did not think twice and took it to the dealership. They told us it was just the battery and airbag sensor. Thankful they changed it, no cost to us. But later this happened again, this time it was the "engine light and traction control off". We have no idea what it is. Because we have taken the vehicle to a mechanic to get checked, but they can't seem to find anything wrong with it. This happens several times. Can I have some answers or help to stop this from happening. At this point this vehicle to very dangerous to drive.

Replaced alternator 1 yr ago when my battery suddenly died. Fast forward to now it seems that the new alternator is failing in some capacity because of an improper design. The volt meter would drop below 14 while driving and have seen other reports from other Traverse owners with the same issue. Please issue a recall.

THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES. Dealership is unsure what exactly is the issue with the vehicle. While driving the vehicle out of nowhere the engine stalls and the 'engine power is reduced', 'service traction control', 'service stability track' and 'service air bag' messages illuminate across the dash. While these messages display there is no acceleration to the vehicle. This makes it very dangerous to drive.

The contact owns a 2014 Chevrolet Traverse. The contact stated while moving from a stop position the vehicle failed to accelerate above 10 mph but then would inadvertently accelerate 40 seconds later and remained in second gear. The vehicle failed to shift gears as designed. The contact stated that the check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was diagnosed but not repaired. The manufacturer was informed of the failure and informed the contact that the VIN was not under recall. The failure mileage was approximately 140,000. The consumer stated the vehicle was taken to three different mechanics and the problem still occurs.

On more than 5 occasions my car will say “traction control off” and “reduced engine power” then just shut down. This is very dangerous and can cause an accident. I took it in serval times and mechanics report that there is not issue that they can see. The check engine light with come on and off randomly.
