I was driving along the highway way at 60-65 mph when suddenly service traction control came on and vehicle started jerking and slowing down. As I tried to accelerate it continued to jerk and then just shut off completely. I hit the guard rail/ jersey wall on the drivers side because I had no control of the vehicle due to the vehicle shutting down. Upon taking it to the dealer after getting it home they stated it could be the junction box which is a known issue but they don’t see anything wrong with it and can’t duplicate the problem. I’ve contacted various mechanics and get that it’s an electrical issue that Chevrolet is aware of but refuses to place a recall for it. I could have gotten seriously injured if not killed by this problem and safety issue.
There are a lot of paint dings. Some very small some larger. Mostly in the front half of the vehicle. My driving habits and destinations have not changed over the years and this is the first time I've ever seen this many dings in one vehicle in a short period of time. I did mention it to the dealerships service department and of course there are no known issyes with the paint failing. Its been approximately 3 mths. Since I was told this and it still sits very uneasy with me!!!! sooner or later things dings will start rusting. I still have just over 5 yrs. Left to pay for this vehicle!.
While pulling into a parking spot, I applied the brake and came to a complete stop. Put the vehicle into park and then removed my foot from the brake pedal, as soon as I did this the car began to move forward, I reapplied pressure to the brake and then slowly let it back off again after verifying that it was in the park position (which it was). The car continued to move forward driving over the cement curb stop and straight towards the glass wall of the business I had pulled into, and so I immediately applied the parking brake and removed the keys from the car. I then tried to restart the car but it would not turn on, only the engine light would come on, the brake pedal at this point was seized and I couldn't press it down, nor was I able to move the car out of the park position. After calling a tow driver he checked the transmission linkage and we were able to get the car started again however now the car is running, in the park position but the reverse camera is on and when I tapped the gas it began to back up. The car has now been towed to my local chevy dealership who are investigating but they claim there is no recall's or notifications for a 2014 automatic Traverse (which there is!!). I just bought this car last month (Aug) and I see the notice was issued in Feb.
