The car appeared to have lost power, not while entering the freeway. I pressed on the gas, but it made a loud sound and barely moved. I then saw smoke, pulled over and the car cut off. The car continued to smoke. I opened the hood, and it was a fire under it. Prior to driving, the check engine light was on.

I bought a used car and maybe it’s just wear and tear but I’ve seen it in lots of forums on the internet also. My back end sways going around curves almost like I am fishtailing and then my traction control dings and it says service traction control and also my car jumps when in idle the rpm needle moves with it. It acts like it doesn’t want to get up and go at about 60. I’ve seen a lot of people talk about the engine and transmission going out in vehicles. I didn’t know this when I bought the vehicle. I have 2 kids and I need this car to take them to school and errands. I don’t know if this is normal wear and tear or if it’s something wrong with the car from the beginning

WAS DRIVING FINE AND ALL OF A SUDDEN WITH NO WARNING CAR WOULD NOT GO FASTER THAN 15 MPH. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON THEN TRACTION CONTROL WENT OFF. ACROSS THE DASH IT SAID "SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL, SERVICE STABILITRACK AND REDUCED ENGINE POWER" THE CAR STARTED SHIFTING BETWEEN 2 DIFFERENT GEARS MAKING IT EXTREMELY SCARY TO TRY DRIVING TO A SAFE SPOT WITH 3 YOUNG KIDS.

MY WIFE AND I OWN A 09 CHEVY TRAVERSE AND HAVE HAD FOR ABOUT 3 YEARS. WHEN WE FIRST BOUGHT IT IT DROVE LIKE BRAND NEW BUT OVER THE PERIOD OF A YEAR OR SO WE STARTED TO FEEL A SIDE TO SIDE SWAYING (SUCH AS ROCKING IN A BOAT) WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 60 MPH. SINCE WE'VE GOT 4 KIDS AND MY WIFE USES IT AS A DAY TO DAY VEHICLE I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND HAD THEM TELL ME IT WAS STRUTS (WHICH I HAD REPLACED) AND AFTER BEING REPLACED IT STILL HAD THE SIDE TO SIDE MOVEMENT. IT HAS GOTTEN TO THE POINT I DON'T ALLOW HER TO DRIVE HER NOR THE KIDS BECAUSE OF THE DANGERS. I'VE HAD THE RACK N STEERING, FRONT UPPER AND LOWER CONTROL ARMS THE REAR UPPER CONTROL ARMS, STABILIZER BAR BUSHINGS ALONG WITH NUMEROUS OTHER BUSHINGS AND ALL 4 BRAND NEW TIRES. THE DEALERSHIP NOR OTHER INDEPENDENT SHOP KNOWS WHAT ELSE TO REPLACE.

COUPLE MONTHS AGO I WAS OUT WITH MY FAMILY AND NOTICED THAT THE CAR WAS ALMOST STUTTERING WHEN I PLACED IT IN REVERSE. A LITTLE LIKE WHEN YOU DRIVE A CAR WITH A MANUAL TRANSMISSION AND YOU DEPRESS THE CLUTCH BUT DON'T GIVE THE CAR ENOUGH GAS AND IS STARTS TO JERK BACKWARDS INSTEAD OF ROLL SMOOTHLY. THEN AS I TRAVELED HOME I NOTICED A SORT OF SHUTTER WHEN THE CAR SHIFTS AT 25 MPH- I'M GUESSING AROUND 3RD GEAR. NO SHUTTERING AT A HIGHER GEAR. IT HAS BEEN IN MY GARAGE SINCE THAT DAY AND I HAVE NOT DRIVEN IT. FROM WHAT I BEEN READING & LEARNING IT HAS TO DO WITH THE WAVE PLATES ON THE INSIDE THE TRANSMISSION. PLEASE HELP.

WE BOUGHT OUR 2009 TRAVERSE LTZ WITH TOWING PACKAGE BRAND NEW IN JULY 2009. FROM DAY ONE IT HAS ROLLED BACKWARDS WHEN IN DRIVE WHILE STOPPED AT A LIGHT, A STOP SIGN, OR PAUSING FOR TRAFFIC. ONCE, WE ROLLED BACKWARDS INTO THE CAR BEHIND US EVEN THOUGH MY FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE. WHEN I SPOKE TO SERVICE REP AT THE DEALERSHIP, HE SAID IT WAS FINE, THAT'S WHAT THEY DID. OBVIOUSLY IT WAS A PROBLEM BECAUSE WITHIN A FEW YEARS, CHEVY MADE A BIG DEAL ABOUT THE NEW SYSTEM THAT STOPPED TRUCKS FROM ROLLING BACKWARDS WHEN STOPPED ON A HILL.

"TAKATA RECALL" WHILE DRIVING ON I70 SOUTH IN THE FAST LANE MY 2009 CHEVY TRAVERSE STARTED TO LOOSE POWER, LIGHTS STARTED FLICKERING, AND THEN ULTIMATELY STOPPED AS I WAS PARTIALLY IN THE ROADWAY. STATE PATROL HAD TO COME OUT AND MOVE THE VEHICLE AND ASSURE MY SAFETY OF EXITING ON THIS VERY DARK INTERSTATE. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT EVEN START UP AGAIN. AND THIS WAS THREE DAYS FOLLOWING A TUNE-UP W/6 NEW COIL PACKS, OIL CHANGE W/FILTER AND FLOW VENT. AND ALL THIS COST ALMOST 600.00 BUCKS BECAUSE COILS ARE NEARLY 45.00 PER COIL. AND ALL THIS HAD TO HAPPEN BECAUSE OF A CONSTANT MISFIRE IN ALL OF MY CYLINDERS. SO I HAD THE TRUCK TOWED 48 MILES HOME AND THEN 16 MILES TO THE DEALER JUST TO BE TOLD THAT THIS TRUCK HAS A TIMING CHAIN RECALL THAT WAS NEVER DONE. SO I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP TO CALL CHE Y CORPORATE OFFICE. LOL. CHEVROLET TOLD ME THAT THE THE RECALL EXPIRED AND THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE TIMING CHAIN MYSELF. AFTER 2 YEARS OF CONSTANT SPENDING. IM DONE AND HAVE BEEN ADVISED TO SUE. THE TROOPER CALLED TO FOLLOW UP WITH ME BECAUSE I DID ALMOST DIE ON THE INTERSTATE BECAUSE MY VEHICLE WENT COMPLETELY OUT AND 18 WHEELERS WERE GOING EXTREMELY FAST. AND HE PROVIDED ME WITH A COMPLETE POLICE REPORT TO GO AFTER CHEVY. MY TWO KIDS NOW HATE THE VEHICLE. MY DAUGHTER CRIED ALL THROUGH THE 4TH OF JULY BECAUSE OF THE TRAUMA. AND CHEVY SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO SELL FAMILY VEHICLES WITHOUT HAVING A FAMILIES SAFETY IN MIND. THIS WAS MY FIRST CHEVY PURCHASE AND IT WILL BE MY LAST. THIS IS NOT A COMPANY I WISH TO SUPPORT. BECAUSE IT COULD CARELESS ABOUT OUR LIVES AND SAFETY. I REFUSE TO PAY ANOTHER 2K TO REPAIR AN ISSUE THAT HAD A RECALL THAT I DIDNT KNOW ABOUT. #2NDOWNERSCLUB

I BOUGHT THIS CAR 6/21/2016. NEVER RECEIVED ANY RECALL NOTICE FOR THE TIMING CHAIN. THE DEALERSHIP IS REFUSING TO FIX IT. I HAVE 106K MILES ON IT. THE DEALERSHIP SHOULD HONOR THE RECALL AS IT'S A SAFETY CONCERN. I HAVE 4 CHILDREN IN THE CAR WITH ME AT ALL TIMES.

I HAVE BEEN BATTLING MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ALL 2018 AND NOW 2019. NOT TO MENTION THE STABILIZTRAK AND HARD TO TURN STEERING WHEEL. I HAVE BEEN GETTING A MISFIRE IN ALL MY COILS. THIS ISSUE HAS CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO STUTTER, DRINK HIGH VOLUMES OF GAS AND ALMOST SENT ME BROKE. I HAVE CHANGED EVERY COIL, EVERY PLUG, CHANGED THE STABILIZER, TENTIONER, BEARINGS, SWAYBAR LINKS AND MUCH MORE. I AM COMPLETELY DONE WITH CHEVY. THEY KNOW THIS MAKE AND MIDEL IS HORRIBLE AND WE AS CUSTOMERS NEED TO DO A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT. THIS VEHICLE SOUNDS LIKE A TIN CAN WHEN IT STARTS. IT RATTLES AND STUTTERS WHILE DRIVING AND IT SHAKES WHEN STATIONARY.

WHILE DRIVING TO WORK MY TRAVERSE COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN. I HAD TO COAST TO THE EDGE OF THE ROAD AND THEN PUSH IT INTO A PARKING LOT. WHILE DRIVING THE LIGHTS SEEMED TO GO DIM AND THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF! . THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A MECHANIC WHO SAID THE TIMING CHAIN WENT AND WHEN IT DID IT BASICALLY BLEW THE ENGINE. A NEW ENGINE COST MORE THEN WHAT I OWE ON THE CAR. AFTER CALLING AROUND I FOUND OUT THAT MECHANICS DO NOT LIKE TO REPLACE THE ENGINE IN THE TRAVERSE BECAUSE THE TIMING CHAIN ISSUE. MY MILEAGE IS ABOUT 140,000. I CALLED THE MANUFACTURER AND FILED A COMPLAINT. I WAS TOLD THEY DO HAVE A 'SPECIAL WARRANTY ON THE TIMING CHAIN HOWEVER IT'S ONLY UP TO 120,000 MILES AND I AM 20,000 OVER THE SPECIAL WARRANTY. IF ENGINE DIES COMPLETELY AT 70MPH ON FREEWAY A BAD WRECK CAN HAPPEN THIS IS UNSAFE AND CHEVROLET SHOULD REPLACE THESE ENGINES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE RECALL REMEDY FAILED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT SHE OPENED THE LIFTGATE TO PUT SOMETHING IN THE VEHICLE AND THE LIFTGATE FELL DOWN AND STRUCK HER IN THE HEAD. THE LIFTGATE CONTINUED TO FORCE DOWN ON THE CONTACT, TRAPPING HER AND CONTINUOUSLY PUSHING ON HER BACK. AN EYEWITNESS OBSERVED THE FAILURE AND HELPED TO PULL THE LIFTGATE OFF OF THE CONTACT. THE CONTACT DID NOT SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION, BUT SUSTAINED BRUISING ON THE BACK AND SORENESS FROM HER HEAD AND NECK. THE LOCAL DEALER (WASHINGTON CHEVROLET, 1 RAYMOND BLVD, WASHINGTON, PA, 15301) WAS CONTACTED AT 724-222-2800 AND INFORMED HER THAT IT WOULD COST HER TO HAVE THE RECALL REPAIRED AGAIN. DUE TO THE COST, THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED A SECOND TIME. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBERS: 8-3387134924 AND 8-3450670027. THE MANUFACTURER CONFIRMED WHAT THE DEALER STATED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 87,700.

WE HAVE HAD MULTIPLE ISSUES WITH THE 09 CHEVY TRAVERSE. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON SO WE RAN TEST ON IT. THE TEST CAME BACK THAT THERE WERE 4 SENSORS THAT WENT OUT. WE WENT AND PURCHASED THOSE 4 SENSORS AND RESET THE COMPUTER AND WITHIN AN HOUR THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS BACK ON FOR THOSE SENSORS. WE THEN WENT AND REPLACED THE SENSORS ONCE AGAIN AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED. THE NEXT THING THAT HAPPENED WAS THE HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. CHANGED BOTH HEADLIGHTS AND A MONTH LATER THEY WENT OUT AGAIN. ONLY WAY TO HELP THIS ISSUE WAS TO TURN OFF DAYTIME LIGHTS. ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO THE AC UNIT JUST STOPPED WORKING WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY. THOUGHT THE AC MIGHT NEED RECHARGED SO WE RECHARGED IT AND IT WORKED AGAIN FOR ABOUT AN HOUR. NOW IT WILL NOT EVEN ALLOW YOU TO TURN THE AC ON AT ALL. JUST A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE WHEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FLASHED AND THE CAR STATED CHECK ENGINE SOON THEN THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CAR READ THAT STABILITRAK WAS OFF. ALL OF THESE ISSUES HAVE OCCURRED OVER THE LAST YEAR AND I HAVE ONLY OWNED THIS CAR FOR 2 YEARS AND IT ONLY HAS ABOUT 128000 MILES ON IT. I COULD EXPECT THESES ISSUES IF THE CAR WAS A LOT OLDER BUT I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS CAR BECAUSE OF ALL THE ISSUES THAT KEEP OCCURRING. VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THE TRAVERSE BECAUSE I KNOW I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THESE ISSUES BUT THERE IS NOTHING THAT THE DEALERSHIPS WILL DO TO HELP EXCEPT CHARGE ME A LOT TO FIX THE ISSUES AGAIN ONLY FOR THEM TO KEEP MESSING UP.
