Had my Traverse for two years, second owner. When I received the car, it had to immediately go into the shop as they couldn’t figure out why all sorts of dash lights where coming on. My car was at the dealership for three weeks and ultimately they replaced the chip, stating that was the issue. Two months down the road, I get the shift to park error message starting. Fast forward to 4 months ago when the stability error message starts to intermittently come on and off. 30 days ago I got the first of the service charging system message and the battery saver mode. My car shut itself down while I was doing 55 miles per hour on a back country road. Every lthing locked up and I had to force a turn to get out of traffic. It was determined my battery was good but alternator was bad. Checked fuses just to be safe all were good. Replaced the alternator with a new one. As of today, I am not able to drive my vehicle because of this same issue. This time I went ahead and replaced the battery and nothing has changed. They are saying it’s my alternator again. How is this possible that all of us 2018 Traverse drivers are experiencing the exact same malfunctions in order and now we have to repeatedly replace the alternator? there is no way 1000s more of Traverse owners are all buying “bad” alternators. Something is going on with this and these vehicles are not safe to drive. I can’t even trade mine in because my credit is shot. I pay way too much for this car to not be able to reliably and safely transport my kids to and from school.
The parking brake came on as I was driving and would not allow me to turn it off. It caused my brakes to smoke and they were radiating heat. It is currently at the shop kelley Buick GMC bartow, FL.
Due to the ems recall it has caused the abs to malfunction went to two dealerships more than four times was told to pay in order to have my car fixed due to ems recall service provider: due to the ems recall it has caused the abs to malfunction per ems recall this can be fixed free of charge. I am being denied by both killeen and temple chevy dealerships.
When applying the brakes the vehicle feels like gears are grinding and the car is breaking harder than I am applying pressure on the brake pedal, and I can feel the vehicle shuttering and grinding to a stop through the pedal. The vehicle does stop, but a warning then displays on the dash "brake assist activated". This warning displays everytime the brakes are used. Only have disabling the forward collision break assist does the vehicle then drive normal. This issue has occurred twice now once in town driving 30-40 miles an hour and another stopping coming up to a light at intersection.
