I was driving at approximately 30mph on a road the traction control/stability track light came on and my car lost almost all power. it went from 30 to about 5mph. thankfully i was on a slower road and close to my house so I was able to get home. If I would have been on a highway I could have been killed. i quick google search showed thousands of other complaints with the same problem, my question is why is nothing being done. are they waiting for a certain number of deaths??

It happened 2 yrs ago in May. My kids and I were waiting in the vehicle and it cut off all of a sudden. My boyfriend checked it out and wasn-€™t sure what the problem was. The vehicle got towed. Mechanic said it was a bad ECM. Whomever sold me the vehicle had an Arcadia ECM. The mechanic from the dealership I took it to said it-€™s on back order. 6 months later he said there-€™s nothing they can do for my vehicle. So it stayed in my yard for so long. We bought a used ECM from a used auto part. Today my boyfriend had to go on YouTube just to figure out what-€™s wrong. He was under the hood almost the whole day and now it-€™s fixed. The only problem is the check engine light is on.

Vehicle started having a rattling noise when it was started, coming from the passenger side of the motor at just under 86k miles on the odometer. I have been advised by a Certified Mechanic that the timing chain has stretched, receiving a stored code of P0008 with no Check Engine Light being active. The entire timing chain assembly now has to be replaced.

My check engine light started coming on and found out from mechanic there was an issue with the stretching of the timing chain (P0008). Car started making clanging noises and now needing a $3000 repair. After researching the problem, I have found out that there was an ongoing problem with belts and had recalls for 2009, which was covered. Gm knowing there was a faulty design tried to reprogram the oil life monitor as a corrective action for the population of vehicles meaning THEY recognized the sensitivity of system. It wasn-€™t effective enough because now people are having issues at higher mileage and outside their warranty. GM knew this would happen and are now pushing the cost onto their loyal customers. GM needs to show loyalty to their customers and own up to the poor design. My traverse is now drivable and with all the financial difficulties of the pandemic, I can-€™t afford the repair.

I was driving my 2010 Chevrolet Traverse lt on the freeway, when with no warnings at all. The engine shut off at 67 mph in mid heavy traffic. I pointed her to the center divider since I was in the fast lane. We came to a halt and I wasn't all the way out of traffic. I got it home to my mechanic and he said he had no idea what happened at all to her, since I had just had her serviced and was told she was ready to travel. My mechanic was dumb founded and showed me just in the last year this has happened to many driver's with my same car. And mine was just serviced and a new starter put is, as well as the timing belt looked over. Oil changed, transmission looked at, new catalytic converters valves cleaned, plugs replaced, and fast tank and lines purged and cleaned.

A few months ago my check engine light came on. I had my mechanic test it and it came back for timing chain. He said he knew right away when he saw the code because he's seen a lot of Traverse's with timing chain problems. I had less than 90,000 miles on my car! I called GM but they said there is no recall for my vehicle. Last month I found out my cousin just had her timing chain replaced on her Traverse just before 100,000 miles. There are also a ton of forum posts about Traverse timing chain issues. It's absurd such a crucial part is fault in so many of these cars. A recall needs to be issued.

As I was driving the engine cut off in the middle of the road and the car wouldn't start. This happened without warning. No engine lights, temperature gauge, etc. I was traveling at about 35 mph and had just let off the accelerator to make a turn when I noticed the powering steering was out and realized the engine had cut off unexpectedly. Thank god I had just got off the expressway. This is very dangerous and after searching the internet saw a lot of other people have had the same issue. This should be of grave concern and a safety recall should be issued.

I am contacting you regarding a 2010 Chevrolet Traverse lt I purchased from carvana. The vehicle was delivered on Sunday, October 13, 2020.

The advocate advised me they can re-scheduled the delivery to have it repaired. I informed the advocate I was in desperate need of a vehicle and could not afford for it to be re-scheduled again. She assured me that I can take the vehicle to a certified service center and have a service advisor to give them a call to cover the labor and repairs and they will cover it. Unfortunately, I had been without a vehicle from October 2019 to March 2020 after receiving this vehicle it has been issue after issue. The repairs that was done is listed below.

Recently bought this Traverse 2010 ltz from a private owner after 200 miles on the road the check engine light triggered a few codes P0008-P0017-P0420, upon extensive diagnostics at four different places. From high end authorized Chevy dealers to local auto repair shops it has been determined the timing chain needs replacement. These same issues were recalled and investigated for the previous year 2009 on these models and obviously it has not been solve for the 2010. Why there is no recall for this car yet, how many complaints does it take to take action. We are in the middle of an emergency and financial crisis with big car companies being bail out. Private owners like me don't have the funds to cover a repair for over $3500. This was definitely my mistake but I was coming from a long ownerships line of Chevy cars from Cruze to Malibu and now the Traverse. But this issue is just too much. The life time of chain it is designed to go along with the engine lifetime. Obviously that isn't happening for the Traverse 2010. Please take action we need a solution this is definitely a safety hazard on this vehicles.

Vehicle with 110,000 miles with regular maintenance. Has codes P0017 and P0008 requiring a new timing chain. Timing chains are supposed to last the life of the motor. When do motors only last 100K miles? this known issue from 2009 has not been fixed and needs to be recalled.

While driving the car down the highway the check engine light came on. When pulling to the side if the road the car just shut of and went dead. Tried restarting the car it wouldn't start. Had it towed to the shop and I now have a $8,900 bill because the engine seized up due to the timing chain. So I now have a big blue permanent yard fixture because who can afford to fix this car in the pandemic. I've have researched this and there has been alot of people with this issue. Why has there not been a recall to fix this known issue" this is very dangerous. Why is Chevy not fixing this problem with these vehicles?"

Sometimes when trying to turn the steering wheel locks up and makes it really hard to turn sometimes when doing so it loosens up all of a sudden causing it to jerk/ turn to fast which could cause and accident. A lot of times when taking off the Traverse does not want to shift then having to pull over on the side of road to put in park and put back in gear then go and also sometimes when driving the car shifts really hard jerking the vehicle when shifting!! the 2nd row heat/ air controls get really hot even when not in use.

- Woodville, AL, USA

The car shut off while driving on the road multiple times. It would then start back up while still rolling on the highway. At lights it shutoff and I then had tobrestart it it did this all the way home. The engine light came on. Scanner says P0019 states it's the correlation N timing chain and cam sensor. Upon researching there are multiple cases of this happening with this in particular motor. Doing this while on the road is incredible unsafe and could have cause me to be in an accident.
