2 Transmission Solenoid problem of the 2012 Chevrolet Traverse

Failure Date: 11/26/2014

I have had many ongoing issues since car purchase. Electrical , air conditioning and injector issues. Car does not seem safe. Lights go out every few months whilde driving when it is dark. This is very dangerous. 1st replacement on light was done while under warrant, however, chevy dealer failed to address the issues causing the light to burn out and simply changed light out. It has been continuous with us changing lights, brake lights and headlights. Car would lose power and jerk as well as had gears problems while traveling on a fwy with cars going an average og 60 mph. Car would not auto shift above 20-30 mph. Gas smell upon start of vehicle and the list goes on. Stuck open evap purge solenoid setting ses light cac case 8-2106770252 dalila lopez--- scanned ecm found code p0300 p0496. Performed diagnosis. Performed injector balance test found bank 1 injector out of specs. Replaced 1 3 5 injectors. It seems that there is a possibility that the injector issues may have caused other problem with the vehicle which cannot be denied nor confirmed. An oil pan gasket has been leaking as well when less than 90,000 miles. Safety has been an ongoing concern. I am requesting that the electrical issues that have not been resolved since the 1st light went out in 2014 to be resolved at gms cost. In addition I am asking that the oil pan gasket replacement be done at gm cost . In addition, I am requesting reimbursement of my down payment of $10,000 on my vehicle.

3 Transmission Solenoid problem of the 2009 Chevrolet Traverse

Failure Date: 06/17/2014

Transmission felt like it was slipping in various gears, sometimes at start and others between higher gears. Onstar reported misfire. Taken to dealership for diagnostics, codes p 0300,01,02,03,04,05,0011 & 0014. Advised engine oil was low enough, even though no leaks, causing cam actuators and solenoids to rattle and set up misfires. Was due for routine service anyway. This was said to cause what felt like the transmission slipping. Now, week of 10/13-18/2014, same symptoms only getting worse. Car taken to a respected transmission shop locally for diagnostics and being told transmission needs replaced. Transmission was serviced at 62,951 miles on 05/25/2012.
