Driver Assist & Collision Avoidance across every Chevrolet Traverse year
The "shift to park" alert keeps coming on even when car is in park gear. One has to either put car in reverse and then shift slowly to park more than a few times for it to finally recognize it is in park. Otherwise, one cannot turn car off and brake stiffens and hard to turn car on again. This is frustrating and poses a hazard. This has been ongoing for months.

NHTSA complaint #11648846 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.
defect includes issues with the electronic stability control (ESC) system and the electronic-brake control module (EBCM). These issues can cause the driveline protection system to activate unexpectedly. when i initiate gas after a stop the "stabilitrak" alarms and sometimes emergency brake initiates. it is available for inspection upon request. your safety is at risk from alarm sounding repeatedly at recurring stops. you also sometimes have to release the emergency brake or parking brake as it is initiated unexpectedly. this happens at a stop to start or accelerate but while you are actively driving. the dealer cannot reproduce they tell the customer. inspected by dealer. stabilitrak error messages on dash when it occurs. this first appeared a year ago roughly 12.16.2023. it happens mostly when the outside temperature is cold like below 50 degrees.

Twice my car has activated the Forward Assisted Braking while crossing railroad tracks. Both times it was immediately after a train had passed and it was clear to proceed. Both times my car came to an abrupt halt on the tracks with other traffic behind me. I cannot proceed until I tap the brake. And I’m worried I could be rear ended if it happens again while crossing during normal traffic.

Akron, OHCrash
BACK OVER PREVENTION: WARNINGS
On 10-31-2022 my Chevy app sent email that my vehicle was experiencing starter engine issues and that my vehicle could not start. Except my vehicle was starting and being driven at the time. Shortly after that my vehicle gave notification by dashboard that my steering assist was reduced and to drive carefully but I am not aware of having that feature or how it was reduced in the first place. On 11-1-2022 my vehicle was being reversed into parking and the camera view displayed the scene as if my course was clear but I was not and the vehicle collided with a pole. I’m not sure how this is even possible but I no longer feel this vehicle is safe for me and my family.
