I started my car and drove out my driveway as soon as I get to the corner to turn my sterling wheel locked up and then I had to hurry up to brake in order to not hit the sign and curb. Finally when it released I got to the main road and was driving about 20-25 mph my vehicle radio started to switch from fm to cd on its on and then I couldn't acellrate to a higher speed. The vehicle display showed service traction control, service stabilitrak and traction control turned off. There was some kind of engine loss but it stalled out too. This happened two times now! I see it has been a problem with the Traverse since 2011 models. The Chevy dealership does nothing to fix this. I am terrified to drive this car with my family and have us get in an accident. I have owned this car for 1.5 years. Someone could get hurt or killed while driving one. They are not finding out the issues or recalling these vehicles!!

This is a formal complaint against General Motors regarding the 2012 Chevrolet Traverse traction control system. A safety hazard among myself and others home can be seriously injured if not killed. I use this vehicle to and from work about 75 miles to commute through the cascade mountains. We bought this Chevy Traverse October 2016 and have regularly serviced and maintained the vehicle to the best of our ability including or not limited to oil changes and tire rotations but also power steering/suspension work. There has been no accidents or abuse as a driver. All of a sudden on my way home from work approximately 60 miles an hour decreasing speed as sharp curves approaching. With no warning it felt as if there was minimal power and no control the car dramatically reduced from 60 to about 20 25 miles an hour, while their vehicles behind me and had to slam on their brakes as I was way before the actual curves at this point in time I noticed check engine light blinking an error message stating service traction control system as well as stabilitrak. As we proceed it around curves at an uphill slant I was unable to maintain speed but decreasing from 25 down to 10 - 12 miles an hour. Route 66 ashland Oregon is dangerous with back-to-back sharp curves blind spots narrow roads and weather cousin fatalities every year. Looking behind me a few cars could have easily been hit from anyone coming around that curve. A speed limit of 55 miles an hour and not being able to reach 20 mph. This morning once again happened so I pulled over to troubleshoot online and I found from 2009 there have been a series of complaints that GM's motors lacks responsibility that pertains two the traction control system among Traverse as well as other models. I am simply trying to prevent myself wife three children and you from a potential fatality of which can be prevented.

I own a 2012 Chevrolet Traverse, with just over 41,000 miles. Yesterday, when I started the vehicle, for no apparent reason, the traction control / stabilitrak, and check engine light came on. Prior to that I had no issues, the vehicle was running fine. I have kept it well maintained and clean, and drive at the speed limit, on good roads. I researched the issue online, and it appears to be a common problem with this model vehicle. There are no recall notices, which seems unusual for the number of issues. The Traverse is a nice vehicle, but I have been in 3 times for manufacturer recalls regarding other issues. GM should have a recall for this issue, given that it affects what appears to be many model years of this vehicle and others.

I was driving 70mph on the interstate (with my 4 children in tow) my cel, service stabilitrac and reduced engine power lights came on. My speed was reduced to around 45mph. I had two semis behind me, the one directly behind me had to get over very quickly to avoid rear ending me. I put on my hazards and took the next exit approximately 7 miles ahead. Once off the interstate I shut off my vehicle, waited two minutes then restarted, lights and messages still on. I proceeded to drive but could only go around 45mph while my vehicle was not wanting to go. I parked it at work then at lunch I drove it on city streets at 35mph. I parked it again at my work. When I got off I started the car and started driving, no lights or messages. I proceeded to drive to the interstate on my way home. When my vehicle hit 60mph the same thing happened, luckily no vehicles behind me. I got off the interstate and drive 45mph the rest of the way home. My vehicle was parked for a few days. After starting again the same lights and messages appeared. I contacted my dealer and was told my vehicle was not part of the special coverage for this exact issue. I contacted Chevy customer service and was told my VIN/year was not part of the issue and there was nothing they could do knowing this is a known issue and was one of the scariest moments of my life.

While driving on a city street, the vehicle lost propulsion and stabilitrak warning will come on. RPM revved up and down, smell of gas fumes in the vehicle.

The car's engine sounds too loud. I bought the car late December 2015 and I told the servce advisor that something is wrong with the wiring because the light bulb needed to change, sounds from speakers would bounce off from one speaker to another, the windows would not go back up, and engine was louder than usual. Two weeks ago, while I was on I-95 with my kids, the engine light came on, the car automatically slowed down on me, traction control automatically turned off, the car stated engine power slowed and stabitalk light came on. I was terrified. I'm already a victim of mile discrepancy and poor professionalism from the GM from autonation Chevrolet delray and I'm still having problems with my vehicle. I took my car there a time back in may because my engine was shaking, I was told they fixed my engine but the car was still shaking afterwards. Also the seatbelt for the middle seat of the second row, works when it wants to. I went to autonation to look at the vehicle, they claimed it doesn't have engine issues even though they did not give me a copy of the results of the whole diagonosis.

I bought this car used in April 2016, within 72 hours I noticed it was making some horrible noises. My family mechanic said the idler belt tensioner was bad, multi motor issues, 2 fuses were blown, 2 bad window motors, ac was not super cold and the airbag recalls were all still present. I took it back to the dealer to get serviced and one of the employees wrecked it in service and no one told me so I found it when I got home, they kept my car for close to 5 weeks to repair it and then take it to an autobody shop since the dent was bad enough were the rear quarter panel needed to be replaced. Now that I have it back, I have experienced multi times where the power steering goes out in the rain. And today the ac stopped working. I am not saying this is the case for everyone but after researching it, it does appear I am not the only one with negative comments about these cheaply made "american" SUV's. I am a single mother and although I make good money- I do not have enough saved up to take it back to the shop for repairs. I am extremely disappointed in the dealership and Chevy.

While driving on the highway, my chev Traverse traction control, stabilitrak, ABS and brake warning lights lit up! when both accelerating and applying brakes the car drags. Additionally the air conditioning blows harders on its own.

- Raeford, NC, USA

The contact owns a 2012 Chevrolet Traverse. While driving 45 mph, the traction and electronic stability control warning lights illuminated. The instrument panel failed and the vehicle failed to accelerate when the accelerator pedal was depressed. The failure recurred intermittently. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed, but the cause of the failure was not found. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 92,739.

- Dawson Springs, KY, USA

As I was driving the truck started flashing several warnings and the check engine light came on. The car would also not accelerate higher than about 20mph. The errors mentioned stabilitrack needs service, engine power reduced, traction control off and others. I took it to O'reilly and received error code P2138. Had to pay over 400 to get sensor replaced at dealer but upon further research many others have encountered this same issue and the issue keeps recurring. This is very dangerous if driving on the expressway and suddenly your car does not accelerate.

My wife left for work acouple of mornings and calls me to tell me the traction control light, check engine light and the stabilitrac light came on and the vehicle had trouble driving when she would press on the gas.

- Defiance, OH, USA

Car lost engine power while driving over 60mph on the expressway.

- Skokie, IL, USA

The battery voltage display on the dash is reading a below normal reading. Battery was replaced due to this. But still the display is reading a below normal reading. Had battery and alternator tested, all tests confirmed battery and alternator were fine and there should be no reason the dash display should be showing a lower reading. This occurs at all times, from cranking, to idling and driving. At times the reading will fluctuate into the normal area, but it is brief and will soon return to a lower reading. This occurs also at all times on all road surfaces and all driving conditions.

- Augusta, GA, USA

I was on a highway driving at a speed of 55 miles per hour when the traction control stability warning light came on and a message of a reduced engine power message was flashing car lost speed for a few seconds then picked up again. Pulled over turned car off for a few minutes. When I turned it back on the engine light came on and has been on since.

- Bellmore, NY, USA

While traveling at about 55 mph in fairly heavy traffic on an upgrade, suddenly and without warning my car slowed to 28 mph. We were almost rear ended by a triaxle dump truck. The display on the dash showed "check stabilitrack - traction control off". we weren't far from home and limped back at 28 mph. The left front wheel speed sensor had come off. Nothing else wrong. This is a dangerous condition - to allow the car to only travel up to 28 mph for no real reason. I hate to think what might have happened if this had occurred on an interstate highway at 70 mph in bumper to bumper traffic.

- West Sunbury, PA, USA

Driving when car beeps 4 times and control lights come on saying traction control off, stability control off, engine power low. Slows the car down to 15-20 mph. Very dangerous as there is very little time to respond. Luckily, I wasn't going very fast to begin with, but on the highway it could be disastrous. It slows the engine and cannot go any faster.

- Arlington Heights, IL, USA

First incident I was driving at approximately 60 mph, when I got a check engine light, service stabile track, and the cruise kicked off, the vehicle slowed and started to chug. I pulled over, shut the vehicle off. Checked the oil etc, and restarted, it seemed fine. A couple of weeks later, I was at a stop light when it did the same thing, except this time the vehicle shut off. I have had three more occurances with this and they seem to be getting closer together. Something needs to be done about this as it is a real cause for concern. I have read the forums and many who have the same issue that I have. I do not feel safe in this vehicle, and dread transporting my family in it at this time.

- Wausau, WI, USA

Car stability control faulted and throttled the vehicle to 15 mph on the hwy. Almost killed my wife and children as she had to go across 3 lanes of traffic to pull off the hwy.

- Tuttle, OK, USA

The vehicle makes a grinding noise when braking. When you hit the brakes you also hear a crunching sound from the inside of the car. When attempting to stop you also feel the car jerking. The car has the stabilitrak light come on and when that happens it also says you have lost traction for the vehicle. When this happens the car feels like its gliding and has difficulty stopping. The engine in my car has a noise on the drivers side since the day I purchased the vehicle. At times you can even hear the noise while driving with your windows up.
