“As I was driving my car started to stutter and the engine light came on the traction control light and something about the stabilizer needs fixed, reduced engine power. Car stopped went into limp mode. Glad I wasn't in a car accident. I have read many people are having this issue and nothing is being done. We were in a city street. My car has 48717 miles on it”

NHTSA complaint #11120121, filed 2018-08, 48,717 miles

“Traction service / stabilitrak service light comes on. Engine power reduced. Driving around at full speed on the highway. It cuts me back to 25mph. I drive my siblings on the car. It's really not something you want happening on a pretty recently new car.”

NHTSA complaint #11142096, filed 2018-10, 59,000 miles

“My airbag light remains on after having it fixed. My stabilitrac and traction control comes on randomly after having it fixed twice. Then being told it's a sensor that makes it come on, and they are having a hard to reproducing the issue at chevy service center. It makes it difficult to accelerate and makes truck jerk. I have to pull over let the car reset, and then start driving again. Different conditions, and speeds, ever since december/january”

“Initially I had an issue with sudden heavy vibration, primarily while turning, was not recording with a fault. Per my service records attached there were several trips try a diagnose and repair the issue. The mysterious issue requiring GM engineer support outside of the local dealership technicians. Shortly after my final service for the vibration issue I reported abnormal shifting during acceleration and was advised that the shifting trained to the driver. The abnormal shifting never resolved itself. …”

“Accelerating up a small hill going 45 MPH, vehicle began to shake and slow to about 25 MPH, check engine light was flashing, check stabilitrak system message showed as well as traction control off . I pushed the traction control button until it came back on but the check engine light was still flashing. After a few minutes everything was fine again. Could have been very dangerous if it happened while I was on the interstate. After some research it seems this is a common problem with the Traverse!”
