The contact owns a 2011 Chevrolet Traverse. The contact stated that the weight of the vehicle placed on the vehicle's suspension would cause the steering wheel and four tires to not align. Due to this failure, the contact stated that the steering wheel would align 50% percent to the right without warning which cause the vehicle to be undriveable. The contact had taken the vehicle to an independent mechanic for multiple repairs including the control bushing, lower control arm, rack and pinion, and several other vehicle parts; however, the failure persisted. The manufacturer had been notified of the failure and informed her that there were zero recalls on the vehicle. The vehicle had yet to be repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 90,000.

Car was powering down at highway speeds and check engine light came on. Now needs timing chains replaced. Also started having issues with the steering not working and the steering rack is bad and needs replaces. Suspension is no good and all has to be redone. Vehicle only has 70,000 miles on it for being a 2011.

Upon research, this is an on going issue with this year make & model & needs to be recalled immediately by gm, before there is a tragedy because of it!.

I only made one payment on my car and I don't feel it's safe to drive or put my kids in. The steering and tires or something just sway pull noise and I feel I don't have any control.

We have many issues with our family car 2011 Traverse one being our power steering whining noise and it get really loud that we are having our 2nd issue in less then 4 months. We are just finding out they put a remanufactured part and master cylinder leaking into booster. . I drive with extreme care daily. .

The air conditioner still faulty. Replaced hoses and freon. The struts still leaking fluid around tire area since purchased. I see many complaints online at different forums about this. My engine light comes on intermittently anf when I have it tested it just says O2 sensors. The light will stay on for 1-2 days and then go out and remain off for several months at a time. Everything in the car is plastic and keeps popping off. I have replaced so many door and seat pieces that this is crazy even down to replacing motor mounts. I love Chevrolet but this by far has been my most aggravating and costly purchase. . . . I used to go to my local chevy dealer for service but I noticed when I log in to my chevy/gm profile they don't load anything innthe system for chevy to see you are really maintaining your car. These dealers are ripping people off.

The vehicle has been experiencing steering issues for a couple years - loud mechanical noises and popping. I have topped of steering fluid reservoir several times and that quieted the noise, but there was no evidence of a leak on my garage floor until October 2015 (after service explained below). The popping became a nuisance again and I took into the local Chevrolet dealer to inspect. They found several issues in the front end that need replaced: rack and pinion (leaking), power steering pump, end links, bushings, transmission mount, struts (leaking). Steering component failure is a possibility in these issues and can cause loss of power steering in the vehicle. Loss of power steering would likely end up in an accident due to inability to turn vehicle as intended. Gm should issue a special coverage for rack and pinion replacement and strut leaks as these are very well know safety/design flaws. Gm has already issued special coverage for the power steering pump.

While sitting at a stop sign my Traverse was hit on the driver's side by the tire and fender. The side air bag or front airbags didn't deploy. The vehicle that hit my Traverse had airbags that deployed. My wife was 4 months pregnant and didn't have proper protection of the multiple airbags this vehicle has. She injured her knee from banging into the dash board and caused great concern about the health of our unborn child. The sad part is now we receive a letter that our car is part of the recent side impact air bag recall on the Chevrolet Traverse. The reason why it didn't delpoy in the accident is because of wire issues on the airbag system. Unsafe at any speed.

I was purchasing the vehicle and told that I could not pick it up due to a faulty rack and pinion that they needed to replace. Now 30,000 miles later the rack and pinion has failed again and has to be replaced making this the 3rd rack in pinion in this car which is a safety issue. They are also stating front struts are now leaking. They found this faulty rack and pinion when I took the car in for low coolant levels and the water pump needing replaced under the extended warranty watch.
