I was traveling on the interstate going 70mph and it felt like my chevy Traverse lost power with no other symptoms or sounds prior to this happening. All maintenance was up to date. The car was officially in "limp mode" with only being able to travel at 20-30 mph on a busy interstate. Reduced power, service stabilitrak, service traction control and check engine lights all came on for the first time. At the service department in the dealership, it was diagnosed as a faulty high pressure fuel pump. High pressure fuel pump, fuel rail, front timing cover and engine oil pan gasket were all the recommended parts for replacement. All of which was related to the faulty fuel pump.
Engine/drivetrain > engine power reduced at 70 mph miltstipek 01:12 pm 09-05-2017 I want to report a very dangerous and safety hazard that we recently experienced with our 2013 ltz Traverse. On July 23,2017 my wife and I were driving on interstate 80. Driving in the middle lane going 70 mph. All of the sudden bells were ringing and dashboard alerts lit up. (traction control off, service stabilitrak,engine power reduced) our speed went from 70 mph to 10 mph in seconds. The traffic behind us were swerving all around us to avoid a serious accident. We were lucky no one was killed. We were finally able to get off the road into a truck weigh station. Our Traverse was towed to the nearest chevy dealer in frankfort,IL. Low and behold there wasn't anything wrong with the traction control or the stabilitrak. We were told that the codes were for the high pressure fuel pump and sensor. The ecm should not have these three problems routed together. There should be some sort of alert for the high pressure fuel pump before it it a problem and the engine speed dropped. The ecm should be reprogrammed so that it does not drop the speed down that fast. Please get this fixed before there are major fatalities! gm you have been warned! (this is another person with countless others with this experience - fix it or you will have their blood on your hands) do the honorable thing please!.
While exiting a store parking lot onto a city street, at night, going approx. 40mph , I had my 3 young children in the vehicle and my SUV suddenly loss power. It shut down completely, in the middle of traffic, with out warning. Luckily the car behind me seen what was going on and did not rear end me. I tried to start the vehicle up and it wanted to turn over but couldn't. The engine light came on and it started to smell of gasoline. The people in the car behind me, helped me by pushing my car out of the way of traffic into a parking lot. I called roadside assistance and had them tow my truck to my house since the dealship was already closed. The next morning, they towed it to the nearest chevy dealership. The following day the dealer diagnosed it with a fuel pump flow control failure, and told me it would be $ 965. 00 to repair. I have only owned this vehicle for 6 months, and it only has, 70,000 miles, with a manufacture powertrain warranty still. So I called gm, and come to find out there was a recall on the same year make and model as my SUV, for the same problem/part, but because the recall is VIN specific, gm will not pay for the repair. I put in a service request and have spoken to 7 different people, with 1 supervisor advising me that they were going to contact the dealership and see what they could do to help get it fixed. That was 4 days ago, never heard back from anyone. I called today and the lady I spoke with, said there was no notes indicating that anyone was working on a solution, or of anything they promised to do. The only thing she said was my vehicle wasnt covered under the warranty and there was nothing they could do. So now I am very upset, I haven't been able to get to work because this was my only source of transportation and I wasn't provided a loaner, I do not have the money to fix it. Can someone please help??.
