Timing chain needed at 60,000 miles, I was told GM is aware of the problem, it was suggested to wait for the recall, after waiting one year still nothing happened. $3000 to fix!

I was driving on a highway and my car lost power, it showed "traction control off" and then "service stabilatrack" I was able to coast off the side of the road and the engine shut off and it will not restart. Had to have it towed to a repair shop and waiting to hesr from them.

I got my car 6 months ago, so far the brakes went out, rotors went out, all struts had to be reolaced, heater broke, air conditioner leakes, and now timing chains need to be replaved. I found an inspection completed 2 weeks before I bought my car done at another dealership. The list of issues is scary.

- Waterville, IA, USA

Without warning, I get an alert on my information panel that stabilitrak is off and traction control needs servicing. At the same time, the vehicle downshifts hard and rapidly decelerates. Several months ago, the check engine light started coming on at random times resulting in an emission error code. The catalytic converter was replaced. A month later, same error code. This current problem happens frequently at various speeds while in motion only.

Bought car certified used in 4/2014 from dealer who performed recall 13079 (water pump shaft leak). While driving on highway at 68 mph, car lost power, overheated with smoke coming from hood. Wife was driving with kids in back - could have gotten into an accident or car could have caught fire. Local shop says water pump leaked and failed causing coolant leak. Called GM reg. Defective recall work and for reimbursement for repair costs - they refused saying its not a safety issue and that the original work wasn't a recall but a customer satisfaction program. I disagree - car could have gotten into accident due to lost power and could have caught on fire. GM should issue recall and reimburse costs for defective worksmanship.

Timing chain went out at 86000 miles

- Mediapolis, IA, USA

The contact owns a 2011 Chevrolet Traverse. The contact stated that the check engine indicator illuminated one week after the vehicle was purchased. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the timing belt was faulty. The vehicle was not repaired. The dealer was not notified. The manufacturer was notified. The VIN was unknown. The failure mileage was 117,000.

I purchased this 2011 Traverse used in 2013 with approximately 28,000 miles on it in Aurora, co. It now has about 118,000 miles. I have had warning lights on the ABS and stability control systems come on, along with error messages indicating stability control and AWD are deactivated for about a week that do not reset upon restarting the car. Today, I experienced numerous losses of engine power, as though the car had dropped into neutral, while driving surface streets at approximately 30-35mph. Despite pressing the accelerator, the vehicle immediately dropped down to 10-15mph for several seconds. Research online in the Chevrolet forums indicates a throttle body issue, but shows no corporate investigation or recall into this, though many people report similar losses of power on highways at 60+mph, suddenly dropping to 10mph. I am concerned about safety in traffic if such a loss of power occurs again.

I keep getting codes for emission and timings chain. My back up safety sensor and wheel sensor doesn't work.

Obd-II code: P0008; timing chain stretched causing check engine light.

- Walkersville, MD, USA

In January 2016, my vehicle started having stability track issues. It got so bad I had the car sit up for a month then called a mechanic out to diagnosis the car. They sent me to the Chevy dealership and they fixed something within the steering, but that did not stop my stabilitrak from malfunctioning. While driving the stabilitrak light turns on and says it needs servicing. Then it makes the engine slow down and it starts stalling so we have to pull over and turn the car off and turn it back on for it to do the same thing again within minutes. If the cruise control is on it turns it off starts to stall and puts my family and I in danger, I just thank god we've been able to alleviate major accidents. It's been one minor accident but because we were already going slow it didn't affect either car, so we let it go especially because our vehicle was at fault not the people behind us.

June 24, 2017 driving at 70mph on 2 lane highway with outside temperature around 85 degrees and suddenly lost power, speed dropped quickly, engine light came on and stopped car on side of road. Narrowly avoided accident from sudden deceleration. Turned off engine and waited about 15 seconds and restarted engine. Drove ok after that. Had similar loss of power with warning lights of "power reduced" and engine light came on February 2017 in grocery store parking lot. Left engine off for about one hour and then restarted ok but acceleration sluggish. Took car to auto mechanic and they could find nothing wrong.

- Mcgregor, TX, USA

A beep occurs and an error - no traction control off - service stabilitrack - engine power reduced; the vehicle has 110K miles and this have never happend before. These errors have accured when the vehicle is in motion and also right as you start it up. Dealership has offed to "try to fix" the issue for the tune of $5000 however they do not know if it will actully fix the issue. So Chevy what are you going to do about this?

- Brunswick, ME, USA

The check engine light came on when driving on a city street going approximately 45 mph. The next day the temp gage spike to 260 in same conditions and as soon as pulling into the driveway coolant spilled into the driveway. The fan continued to run even after vehicle was turned off. Added coolant to get to dealership that is 4 miles a way. Halfway there engine started smoking, pulled over & coolant leaked everywhere again. Needs a new water pump, thermostat, coolant fluid exchange due to leak, & transmission fluid exchange.

Bought the car October of 2010 and now thetiming chain needs replacing. I read all 2009 models timeing chains were replace by Chevrolet under a special warranty and I believe this problem was not fixed for the following year

- Tinley Park, IL, USA

Even on the slightest of inclines, after stopping while in drive, the vehicle rolls backward. A few times it almost rolled backward into the car behind me. It's an accident waiting to happen. Other Traverse owners have told me the same thing happens in theirs.
