2013 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE Complaints

2013 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO DRIVERS SIDE SEAT BELT SAFETY RECALL. THE CONSUMER REQUESTED THAT THE AIRBAGS AND SAFETY BELT BE REPAIRED UNDER WARRANTY.

My 2013 Chevy Traverse LT began Very ruff Idling, Battery Charging system, Traction control, Stabilitytrak, and Check engine lights would come on. Smoke coming from engine area. Had Vehicle towed to dealer. The same day I got it back had the same problem. The truck cuts off while driving down the street almost creating multiple accidents. The first time this happened, I was on the expressway driving about 60 MPH when the traction control light came on, the truck reduced power and completely cut off while driving. An 18 wheeler truck that had slam on breaks to keep from rear ending me. This most recent time this issue came about, While driving on a city street, suddenly the truck did the ruff idol and cut off while driving. I was almost hit by an 18 wheeler again. Thank god these 18 wheeler truck drivers had the skills to make it around me. I am so scared to drive the truck. At this point i want to get rid of it but I'm scared someone else may get my truck and have an even worse outcome. I have had this issue so many times that I fear this will happen in a even more dangerous spot and this truck will get me killed in a really bad accident. I am Highly recommending that GM or someone look into removing this truck from the roadways of America as this is hazardous to all drivers driving safely down the road. My truck is currently being looked at by the dealer and GM. I am not looking to drive this vehicle ever again. Some of the issues has been: Code P0107 map sensor Alternator began smoking Stability Trak dashboard lights come on and engine looses power Traction control light comes on and truck cuts off battery charging system light comes ruff idol and truck cuts off Under hood Fuse box will short out and cause multiple electrical issues Purge Valve broken Power steering hose went bad Coolant hose connector broke 2 times in the same spot Please look into this issue with this model, this is very unsafe and dangerous for the road.

Was driving down the road and the seat belt warning came on even though the seat belts were buckled and the car suddenly lost power the traction control light blinked I tried to give the car gas and it acted like it did not want to go I pulled over and cut it off and let it sit for a minute and then cut it back on and it's drove fine

WE NOTICED AN ALERT ON OUR DASH DISPLAY SAYING SERVICE SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM AND WE ASKED A MECHANIC HE SAID THE BLIND SPOT WARNING AND SIDE AIRBAGS ARE NOT FUNCTIONING BECAUSE OF THIS ALERT AND WE JUST ONLY BOUGHT THIS CAR LESS THAN 5 MONTHS AGO AND STUFF LIKE THIS IS FAILING

CAR WOULD INTERMITTENTLY HAVE REDUCED ENGINE POWER, TRACTION CONTROL OFF, SERVICE STABILITRAK WARNING. THE CAR WOULD GO INTO LIMP MODE BUT DRIVABLE ENOUGH TO GET SAFELY OFF THE ROAD. THE LAST TIME IT HAPPENED ALL THE SAME WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON BUT THE ENGINE COMPLETELY DIED. THE CAR DRIFTED TO A STOP RIGHT OUT OF A CONSTRUCTION ZONE BUT WE WERE STILL UNABLE TO GET COMPLETELY OFF THE ROAD. WOULD NOT RESTART. COPS CAME BECAUSE WE WERE BLOCKING TRAFFIC UNTIL A TOW TRUCK COULD ARRIVE. THANKFULLY OTHER CARS WERE ALREADY SLOWED DOWN BECAUSE OF THE CONSTRUCTION ZONE. IF THIS HAPPENS IN THE WRONG LOCATION WERE YOU CAN'T GET OFF THE ROAD IT COULD EASILY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THE FUSE BLOCK AND TERMINAL 51 HAD CORROSION AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. HOWEVER, THEY CAN'T GUARANTEE THAT WAS DEFINITELY THE PROBLEM AND I NO LONGER TRUST THIS VEHICLE SINCE IT WAS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM TO BEGIN WITH.

I WAS DRIVING AND MY STABILI TRAK LIGHT COMES ON I'M IN THE LEFT LANE GOING 60 MPH MY SPEED DROPS TO 15 MPH I CUT MY FLASHERS ON QUICKLY. LUCKILY THE CAR BEHIND ME SAW SOMETHING WAS HAPPENING AND MOVED OVER AND THE OTHER CARS COULD SEE MY CAR WAS IN DISTRESS. I CUT THE CAR OFF TURNED IT BACK ON AFTER ABOUT 15MINUTES AND IT WAS FINE. DRIVE FOR ABOUT 30 MINUTES AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN DID EVERYTHING AS BEFORE DROVE TO DEALER THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR SO I PAID FOR A SERVICE DIAGNOSTIC FOR NOTHING. THEY DROVE THE CAR SAID IT WAS FINE. I DID A INTERNET SEARCH AND FOUND VIDEOS ON THERE THAT SHOWS HOW YOU CAN TURN OFF OR FIX THE STABILITRAK . ALL I KNOW IS GM NEED TO FIND A SOLUTION BEFORE SOMEONE LOSE THEIR LIFE BEHIND THIS. IT'S HAPPENED TO ME TO MANY TIMES TO COUNT UNTIL I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE MY CAR ON A LONG DISTANCE TRIP, I RENT A CAR AND MAKE SURE IT DOESN'T HAVE STABILITRAK. PLEASE GET HELP FOR THIS SITUATION.

DRIVING AT HIGH SPEED WHEN "TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT OFF" INDICATOR CAME ON, THEN VEHICLE STARTED TO REDUCE SPEED, "ENGINE LIGHT INDICATOR POWER OFF". VEHICLE SHUT OFF AND WOULD NOT START.

THE REDUCE ENGINE WARNING KEEPS COMING UP. WITH THE ENGINE LIGHT. BUT WHEN SCAN NO CODES SHOW UP ON THE SCAN. IT KEEPS GLITCHING.
