I received the notification of faulty airbags from my insurance company. GM has yet to inform me of this recall. I have contacted multiple dealerships about this problem. They would not even do an inspection. I also contacted GM about this recall since it could result in death and I travel about a rental or a push to get the airbags replaced since they know the driver airbag modular has to be replaced. They have refused to contact me or move forward fixing this problem. They have yet to send a letter or email to notify me of the recall in the first place. Thank goodness my insurance company knows how to communicate important information. GM knows how to fix the problem but they are not nor are they helping us who have concerns.

I know there are recalls on other Chevy traverse for air bags. My air bag light goes off every so often, I-??m just waiting for the day for it to go off in my face while driving. My power steering pressure pump has been leaking, no longer have power steering, makes driving very difficult/unsafe. I-??ve heard of many other Traverse vehicles with the same problem, but why is it not being addressed?

The airbag system does not register the air bag as functional and recommends airbag be serviced. I have been to the dealership and they cannot find the issue. They turned off the light, which turns back on. There is something faulty in the airbag system and I am concerned that if I am in an accident, the system will fail. We have been waiting for a recall and cannot believe it hasn't happened yet.

I had a major accident on Thursday, 10/14/2021 where I was it on my drivers side with the other party hitting me around 50-55mph. When the crash occurred, none of the airbags deployed. My side airbag should have deployed. That is a major safety issue, and I might not have hit my head or the steering wheel had they deployed.

I recently purchased a 2014 Chevy traverse LT. While driving on a four lane busy road with a 65 mph speed limit my vehicle without warning said -??traction control off, reduced engine power-?? and within seconds I had no power stealing and I went from driving 65 mph to 10 in less then 10 seconds, the car started violently shaking as well. I had to aggressively redirect the steering wheel to get to the side of the road and turn the vehicle off & wait a few minutes & restart it. It seemed to fix the problem. Within a week it happened again, on the way home from work, and I was nearly rear ended at a 60 mph speed and I am now terrified to drive the car more then a mile up the road to my kids school, I have two small children and this has put us in an almost near death situation TWICE! I purchased this car so I would have a reliable vehicle for my kids and I and it-??s been terrifying for my children and I to own this Chevy! The dealership I purchased the vehicle from is over two hours away, I also live in a rural area so to have it diagnosed I-??d be having to drive at least 15 miles and I-??m terrified to do

THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES. Dealership is unsure what exactly is the issue with the vehicle. While driving the vehicle out of nowhere the engine stalls and the 'engine power is reduced', 'service traction control', 'service stability track' and 'service air bag' messages illuminate across the dash. While these messages display there is no acceleration to the vehicle. This makes it very dangerous to drive.

The VIN of my car should be part of the group of air bag recall. The air bag symbol is activating in the vehicle dash board, and it is of a great concern that it got overseen. I thought it was part of the air bag recall, but when I took it to the dealership, I was told that it didn't have a recall. I want to report this before a safety risk happens.

I had my air bags repaired in October 2019. Six months later the service air bag light came back on. I then called denooyer Chevrolet where I got the work done at. And they said I had to pay for it again. I did not bring it in because this was something I already payed for previously. I called Chevrolet customer service explained the same situation to them. They acted if they was gonna take care of the repair. But they did not and told me there was nothing they can do. This happened more then once and not just in my 2014 Chevrolet Traverse. My warranty do not cover it because it's a safety issue. I need help it's a safety issue and I am risking mine and my kids lives everyday.
