TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGED, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO INCREASE TO 110 MPH WITHOUT THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL BEING DEPRESSED. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. IN ORDER TO DECREASE SPEED, THE CONTACT SHIFTED THE GEAR INTO NEUTRAL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 99,000.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY, MY 2009 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE SUDDENLY LOST POWER. I WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE AND HAD TO PULL OVER ONTO THE SHOULDER. THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON AND A MESSAGE ON THE DISPLAY READ SERVICE STABILITRAK. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES SINCE THE ORIGINAL INCIDENT. I HAVE BEEN RESEARCHING ONLINE AND THIS APPEARS TO BE A PRETTY COMMON PROBLEM AMONG OTHER CHEVROLET TRAVERSE OWNERS. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED WITH GM.

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING OUR KIDS TO SCHOOL WHEN SHE STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT. WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN, SHE REALIZED THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE IN FORWARD OR REVERSE. I AM GRATEFUL THIS HAPPENED WHILE SHE WAS STOPPED, HOWEVER, THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN IF CAR IS ON THE HIGHWAY CONSIDERING THAT THE PROBABLE CAUSE OF THIS IS THE 35R WAVE PLATE WITHIN THE TRANSMISSION. CHEVY KNOWS THERE IS A POSSIBLE PROBLEM WITH THIS, AND HAS ISSUED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THIS PIECE, HOWEVER, THIS PIECE IS CAUSING MORE PROBLEMS THAN IT SHOULD. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, THE ENGINE, TRACTION CONTROL, AND STABILITRAK WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE VEHICLE DECREASED INDEPENDENTLY TO 15 MPH. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 104,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, SHE ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE IN ORDER TO MERGE ONTO THE HIGHWAY HOWEVER, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL ABNORMALLY TRAVELED TO THE FLOORBOARD AS THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED INDEPENDENTLY. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT IN ORDER TO STOP THE VEHICLE SHE HAD TO ENGAGE THE BRAKES AND SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE WHO DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 59,000.

2009 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. CONSUMER STATES UNINTENDED ACCELERATION *TGW THE CONSUMER STATED AS SHE WAS DRIVING HER SON'S VEHICLE, SHE ACCELERATED TO MOVE TO THE LEFT LANE, WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN SHE HAD NO CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE'S SPEED. SHE ATTEMPTED TO BRAKE, BUT TO NO AVAIL. WHEN SHE GRADUALLY REMOVED HER FOOT FROM THE BRAKE, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED TO 80 MPH. THE CONSUMER PUT THE HAZARDS ON AND PLACED BOTH FEET ON THE BRAKE AS SHE TRIED TO HOLD DOWN THE SPEED. FINALLY, AFTER TWO MILES OF RIDING THE BRAKES, SHE WAS ABLE TO EXIT ON THE RAMP AND PUT THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL AND THEN IN PARK WHERE THE RPM'S FINALLY WENT DOWN. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED AND STAYED AT THE DEALER FOR THREE WEEKS. HOWEVER, THEY WERE UNABLE TO FIND A PROBLEM. *JB

MY 2009 TRAVERSE ACCELERATES WHEN IT WANTS TO. THE RPM ARE GOING NUTS BUT THE TRUCK IS SLOWING DOWN WHEN YOU GIVE IT GAS IT DOES NOTHING FOR ONE OR TWO SECONDS. EXTRA PASSENGERS AND THERE WEIGHT MAKE IT EVEN WORSE . CHEVY DEALER IS BAFFLED. PROBLEM STILL UNSOLVED. I THINK THAT IF I KEEP DRIVING IT THIS WAY IT'S GOING TO LEAD TO BIGGER PROBLEMS. CHEVY SHOULD JUST RECALL ALL TRAVERSES WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM. *TR

I OWN A 2009 TRAVERSE THAT WAS TAKEN TO THE GARAGE FOR WHAT APPEARS TO BE A HESITATION IN ACCELERATION. ENGINE SORT OF SPUTTERS. IN A STRAIGHT ACCELERATION AND WHEN IN TURNS. THE GARAGE SAID THAT THIS IS A COMMON "TRAIT" IN THE TRAVERSES COMPUTER BUT THAT IT IS NOT AN ISSUE OR DEFECT. THEY SAY THAT THEY CAN "REFRESH THE COMPUTER" BUT THAT I WOULD "LOSE 2MPG" WHEN THEY DO IT. ONE TECH EVEN SAID "THIS IS SORT OF LIKE THE TOYOTA ISSUE". TO ME (A COMPUTER SYSTEMS ENGINEER) IT SOUNDS LIKE THE COMPUTER HAS A BUG IN IT AND NEEDS FIXED OR REPLACED. THE THOUGHT OF LOSING 2MPG IN A SUV IS NOT VERY DESIRABLE BUT I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT THIS ENGINE HESITATION IS NOT CAUSING DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE ITSELF. HOW IS THIS NOT A POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUE IF I AM TRYING TO AVOID A VEHICLE? MY CHEVY DEALER SAID THAT THEY WOULD CALL CORPORATE BUT THAT "IT WOULD TAKE SEVERAL DAYS". I NOTICE THAT YOU ALREADY HAVE ONE COMPLAINT RE: A 2010 CHEVY TRAVERSE. THIS IS CLEARLY A POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUE!! *TR

SINCE I BOUGHT MY CAR, I'VE HAD PROBLEMS WITH ACCELERATION AND DECELERATION BE VERY ERRATIC. IT SEEMS TO SHIFT DOWN AND UP AT THE WRONG TIMES. IT'S VERY INCONSISTENT AS I TRAVEL THE SAME ROUTE EACH DAY TO WORK, I NEVER KNOW WHAT IT'S GOING TO DO. SOMETIMES IT LURCHES AHEAD AND THE RPM'S ARE ALL OVER THE PLACE, AND DOWNSHIFTS WHEN IT REALLY SHOULDN'T. I'VE TAKEN IT IN FOR REPAIR, THEY PUT THE LATEST COMPUTER CHIP IN IT, WHICH MAYBE HELPED A LITTLE. STILL FOR THE MOST PART IT'S THE WORST CAR I'VE EVER DRIVEN-AS A PASSENGER IT FEELS LIKE THE DRIVER IS EITHER USING THE ACCELERATOR OR BRAKE WAY TOO OFTEN, WHEN IN FACT, THE DRIVER IS JUST TRYING TO PROVIDE A SMOOTH ACCELERATION OR BRAKING, BUT THE CAR HAS A MIND OF IT'S OWN. *TR
