My warning lights keep coming on saying traction control off reduced engine power service stability control. Code came up as and ignition switch problem had the ignition switch changed things were fine for a few months then started having the same problem car was bought in 2017 issues been going on since then. Car was in motion. This is a problem because its completely died on me while driving many times I have tried many things to correct the problem to no avail. Doing my own research online all signs point to this being an issue Chevrolet is aware of but won't recall or fix the issue for free.

The airbag light came on. I took it to get diagnosed and it is the passenger side air bag that needs fixed. I called GM and because the car is 6 years old, it is out of warranty to be fixed. I should not have to fix a safety issue with the vehicle that is not wear and tear.

2014 Chevrolet Traverse - 40K miles - service airbag dash light comes on and stays on during normal driving - believe this is attributed to faulty wiring harness connectors under driver and passenger front seats - dealer called and my extended warranty does not cover repair - there should be a safety recall on this similar to the 2013's

My transmission sleeps a lot. What these main problem is service traction control and the stabilitrak. This happens every time I drive the car I lose speed I could be on the freeway and my speed drops to almost a stop. Every time I take it into the service shop it show that nothing is wrong with it. I'm years old and I need car that's reliable I'm so disappointed with thr [xxx] parts of this document have been redacted to protect personally identifiable information pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

This is the 3rd time in the last 2 years that the airbag indicator has come on. Vehicle just passed 60K miles. This time the error code I was given B0022. All of these problems appear to be due to issues with the connectors underneath the front driver and passenger seats. I will now be bringing the vehicle to be returned for the 3rd airbag problem. It would be helpful if GM would address this.

Warning light: Passenger seatside airbag deployment loop code: B0021 car dealership said they contanced manufactuare and said they would not fix that or where I suspect the car is having transmission problems since it takes longer than it should when I accelerate from where I start driving after a redlight, once I hit 40 mph and then when I hit I think 55mph. Both things are safety issues. Plus after hail damaged my windshild the guy who replaced it said it wasn't sealed in properly and would have smashed if we got in a wreck. This car seems like a death trap.
