2019 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE Complaints

I WAS SLOWING DOWN TO MAKE A TURN AND AS I TURNED THE STEERING WHEEL THE VEHICLE GET LIKE IT EITHER LOCKED UP OR WENT INTO NEUTRAL. I HAD NO CONTROL OVER ACCELERATION.

SEATS ON 2ND ROW SEAT BELT GET STUCK AROUND THE RECLINE LEVER. CAR DESIGN DOES NOT ALLOW TO UNLOCK THE SEATBELT.

TL* THE CONTACT CALLED ON BEHALF OF HIS WIFE WHO OWNS A 2019 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE THIRD INTERIOR ROOF LIGHT REMAINED ON DRAINING THE BATTERY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO (WIN CHEVROLET, 2201 223RD ST, CARSON, CA 90810), ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS TO BE REPAIRED HOWEVER, THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED AND THE LIGHT WAS REWIRED HOWEVER, THE REPAIRS FAILED TO FIX THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 27,326.

THE AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHT SYSTEM OVERRIDES MANUAL MODE. IT WILL AUTOMATICALLY TURN ON THE HIGH BEAMS WHILE DRIVING IN DARK CONDITIONS BUT DOES NOT DIM THE LIGHTS IN A TIMELY MANNER WHEN OTHER TRAFFIC IS PRESENT. THIS HAS THE POTENTIAL TO BLIND ONCOMING TRAFFIC OR ANNOY LEADING VEHICLES.

MY VEHICLE WAS OFF, PARKED AND LOCKED. MY CAR WAS ON A SOMEWHAT FLAT SURFACE AND ROLLED INTO A TREE. THE SAME DAY I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE MY CAR APPROXIMATELY 3 MILES FROM MY HOME, PARK FOR APPROXIMATELY 4 HOURS AND RETURN HOME WITHOUT KEYS. I HAVE A POLICE REPORT AND PHOTOS OF THE DAMAGE OF MY VEHICLE.

CRUISING AT FREEWAY SPEED, PRESS DOWN ON THE GAS PETTAL AND TRANS UP SHIFTS AND GOES TO A LOWER GEAR AND JERKS SO HARD IT FILLS LIKE YOU HAVE HIT FROM THE REAR. IT DID THIS 5 TIMES.

VEHICLE FELT LIKE IT SLIPPED INTO NEUTRAL WHILE DRIVING. COULD NOT ACCELERATE. STRONG CHEMICAL ODOR.

SUNROOF DEVELOPED A MASSIVE LEAK. THE VEHICLE DID NOT LEAK WHILE SITTING ONLY WHILE IN MOTION. THE LEAK WAS AT THE FORWARD PART OF THE SUNROOF. THE LEAK SOAK THE HEADLINER, OVERHEAD CONSOLE CONTROLS AND RAN INTO THE CENTER STACK OF INSTRUMENTS. DIAGNOSED BY SANDY SANSING CHEVROLET, PENSACOLA, FL TO BE A BENT SUNROOF FRAME. HAVE BEEN IN THEIR REPAIR FACILITY SINCE OCT 2019 WITH NO PARTS AVAILABLE OR REPAIR IN SIGHT. CONTACTED GM AND WAS NOT GIVEN A REMEDY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CONTROL ARM FAILED AND WAS REPLACED AT FELIX CHEVROLET (3330 S FIGUEROA ST, LOS ANGELES, CA 9000, (213) 290-1925). ALSO, WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE MADE AN ABNORMAL LOUD NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE. WHEN FUELING THE VEHICLE, THE TANK WOULD NOT FILL UP. IN ADDITION, WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN REVERSE, THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME DIFFICULT TO DEPRESS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE SAME DEALER THREE TIMES, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE FAILURES RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 12,000. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN.

WHEN STOPPING THE VEHICLE, THE AUTO-STOP KICKS IN, WHICH SOMETIMES WORKS WELL. OTHER TIMES IT KILLS THE WHOLE CAR, SHUTTING IT DOWN COMPLETELY. THE INFOTAINMENT CENTER GOES BLACK LIKE THE CAR WAS SHUT OFF USING THE START/STOP BUTTON. SO THEN IT TAKES A BIT TO GET IT RUNNING AGAIN TO GO. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO US 6 TIMES NOW WITHIN THE LAST 2 WEEKS. IN HIGH TRAFFIC AREAS THIS CAN BE A SAFETY CONCERN. ALSO WHEN IT SHUTS DOWN COMPLETELY THE BRAKE PEDAL GOES SOFT AND DROPS DOWN TO THE FLOOR. ALL THIS SEEMS TO HAPPEN WHEN IT IS SUPPOSED TO AUTOMATICALLY START BACK UP AFTER BEING STOPPED FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME.
