Our 2010 chevy Traverse ltz is currently in the shop reference heater/defroster not working and engine light coming on. The vehicle has been in the shop several times this year for ac problems, fluid leaks and numerous sensors failing. The steering problem was discussed with repair facility on several occasions. The problem according to them could not be duplicated. We had to ask the dealership personal to physically set in the vehicle and attempt to turn the steering wheel. A new power steering pump and return hose was replaced total cost $658. 93. At present this has solved the problem. Approximate total cost this year for repairs $3100. 00. At this point we have no confidence in general motor products of anykind. We have all documentation for these claims.

Difficult to turn at slow speeds. While I had it at dealer for other recall issues I was told the rack and pinion system was bad and needed to be replaced at my cost as it was not a recall. I was told this was a very dangerous driving situation. I asked if that were the case why gm doesn't have a recall for it. A car that was only 3 yrs. Old and under 60,000mi. Should not have this problem. I googled what would cause this to go out in such a short time frame and read that most likely it was not greased or assembled properly! a friend who had the same make and model had to replace hers at her cost. This should be a recall issue as it is a dangerous driving problem. As far as electrical problems while driving the back seat heat control will sometimes just randomly turn on. Gm should back their work on this rack and pinion steering defect!.

This car has been nothing but problems, have had to the service shop many times with "nothing found" will sit not moving and the door locks with start going up and down, lack of power, drivers door must be unlocked manually, radio will not turn off even when car is off and driver door is open, car will not turn off even after the key is out of the ignition sometimes will last as long as 20 minutes before it will shut off.

Radio stays on after car has been turned off, keys taken out of ignition, and driver door has been opened. Sometimes have to slam drivers door a few times before it will shut everything off, have tried turning on then back off but that does not help either. .

My 2010 Traverse power steering went completely out. Still not working. My truck tends to roll some after being in park on the brakes. My windows power doesn't work thru driver door.

Vehicle suddenly accelatered and gas pedal stuck at about 65 miles per hour. I immediately took my foot off the accelerator and begin trying to brake the vehicle. At the first available opportunity, I pulled to the side of the expressway. While keeping both feet on the brake, I placed the transmission into park. The vehicle continued to rev rpms at the equalivent of about 65 miles per hour. I used my right hand to pull the accelerator up and the engine returned to a normal idle. I noticed no evidence of the floor mat being on the accelerator or in a position to cause the sudden acceleration or the continued engine rapid rpms. The same day, the accelerator stuck a second time and required me to pull the gas pedal up in order to get the engine to return to normal rpms.

The rear climate control knobs are to hot to touch after turning the vehicle on.
