THE DASH BOARD DISPLAY SHOWS A MESSAGE: SERVICE ALL-WHEEL DRIVE. IT SHOWS UP OUT OF THE BLUE USUALLY WHEN I START THE CAR AND BEGIN TO DRIVE AWAY. IT ALSO GOES AWAY ON ITS OWN.I WAS UNABLE TO OBSERVE A PATTERN OF ANY SORT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO REVERSE ALTHOUGH THE SHIFT LEVER WAS IN THE PARK POSITION.

WHILE PULLING INTO A PARKING SPOT, I APPLIED THE BRAKE AND CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP. PUT THE VEHICLE INTO PARK AND THEN REMOVED MY FOOT FROM THE BRAKE PEDAL, AS SOON AS I DID THIS THE CAR BEGAN TO MOVE FORWARD, I REAPPLIED PRESSURE TO THE BRAKE AND THEN SLOWLY LET IT BACK OFF AGAIN AFTER VERIFYING THAT IT WAS IN THE PARK POSITION (WHICH IT WAS). THE CAR CONTINUED TO MOVE FORWARD DRIVING OVER THE CEMENT CURB STOP AND STRAIGHT TOWARDS THE GLASS WALL OF THE BUSINESS I HAD PULLED INTO, AND SO I IMMEDIATELY APPLIED THE PARKING BRAKE AND REMOVED THE KEYS FROM THE CAR. I THEN TRIED TO RESTART THE CAR BUT IT WOULD NOT TURN ON, ONLY THE ENGINE LIGHT WOULD COME ON, THE BRAKE PEDAL AT THIS POINT WAS SEIZED AND I COULDN'T PRESS IT DOWN, NOR WAS I ABLE TO MOVE THE CAR OUT OF THE PARK POSITION. AFTER CALLING A TOW DRIVER HE CHECKED THE TRANSMISSION LINKAGE AND WE WERE ABLE TO GET THE CAR STARTED AGAIN HOWEVER NOW THE CAR IS RUNNING, IN THE PARK POSITION BUT THE REVERSE CAMERA IS ON AND WHEN I TAPPED THE GAS IT BEGAN TO BACK UP. THE CAR HAS NOW BEEN TOWED TO MY LOCAL CHEVY DEALERSHIP WHO ARE INVESTIGATING BUT THEY CLAIM THERE IS NO RECALL'S OR NOTIFICATIONS FOR A 2014 AUTOMATIC TRAVERSE (WHICH THERE IS!!). I JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR LAST MONTH (AUG) AND I SEE THE NOTICE WAS ISSUED IN FEB. *TR

WHILE ACCELERATING TO 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STARTED VIBRATING FOLLOWED BY STABILITY CONTROL AND TRACTION ERROR MESSAGES, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON, A BURNING SMELL DUE TO RANDOM BRAKING AS PART OF THE CONTROL AND AN ENGINE DOWN POWER. THIS INCIDENT IS SIMILAR TO MANY OTHERS REPORTED OVER A PERIOD OF YEARS AND IS UNACCEPTABLE FROM A SAFETY STAND POINT WHEN MY ENTIRE FAMILY IS WITHIN THE VEHICLE. I WILL NOT ACCEPT A RIDICULOUS EXPLANATION FROM THE DEALER. HONESTLY, I WANT ANOTHER VEHICLE. I KNEW CHEVY WOULD BE TROUBLE.

WHILE DRIVING ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY, MY NEW 2014 CHEVY TRAVERSE LOST ALL ENGINE POWER. THIS IS THE 2ND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED IN SEVERAL MONTHS. MY VEHICLE LOST POWER, LIGHTS WENT OFF AND I NEARLY ESCAPED A CAR ACCIDENT WHILE STEERING WITHOUT ANY ENGINE POWER! THERE WAS NO WARNING- NO LIGHTS WARNED US, NO SOUNDS, NO SPUTTERING- JUST LOST ENGINE POWER. I NEARLY WAS KILLED AND AVOIDED AN ACCIDENT ON THE HIGHWAY. SEVERAL LIGHTS WENT OFF: "TRAK CONTROL OFF, CHECK STAB TRAK." GM HAS ANOTHER VEHICLE ON THEIR HANDS THAT MUST BE RECALLED. I DO NOT WANT TO PUT MY YOUNG CHILDREN BACK IN THIS VEHICLE. IT WILL KILL SOMEONE. THIS IS THE 2ND EVENT WITH THIS "COMPUTER GLITCH." SEVERAL MONTHS AGO, AS I DROVE THE CAR OFF THE LOT - THE LIGHTS WENT OFF AND GM DEALER SAID IT WAS A COMPUTER GLITCH. TO DRIVE A NEW CAR, AND WITHOUT ANY WARNINGS - NO WARNINGS WHEN THE ENGINE COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN IS A DANGER TO THE PUBLIC. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. I DON'T WANT A NEW COMPUTER PART. I WON'T DRIVE THIS VEHICLE, IT WILL KILL SOMEONE. *TR
