What 2010 Chevrolet Traverse owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
I have had all electrical work done. The lights keep going out on my truck. I replace the low beam lights frequently. I also have problems when I pump gas. The truck stalls and does not want to crank. I have had that problem fixed before and it is doing it again.
I keep having to get the air conditioning fixed. I had all of the electrical work done and replaced and a few months later it went back out. I replaced the condensor. I had more freon added and it still blows out warm air. This is the 3rd time that I have had the air to not work. Very frustrating! When the car is in motion, it still does not work.
My vehicle being track by law enforcement-mapping and stop at least once a week under different vechile codes ebd,eps,trac and radio waves by telcommuncationers coding my car most recently stop on 7-13-2020 .this is my complaint for investigation. My tag is rtt0049.
Timing chain as well as catalytic converter completely destroyed after the timing chain was installed by a chevrolet dealership less than 1 year go. Check engine light came on vehicle went into safety mode and now will not start. Chevrolet will not help cover the cost of repairs since it is out of warranty. The car only has 48000 miles
Check engine light came on in car. Code stated that it was the fuel pump control module. When I researched this issue I found where gm recalled hundreds if not thousands of vehicles to include chevy traverses during the 2010 model year because of faulty fuel pump control modules or (chassis electronic control modules). Gm recall, bulletin # 14515b. I spoke to several gm dealers in town who gave me the run around about how this was not a safety recall because of faulty parts but an "informational bulletin". Long story short I had to pay 300 dollars to get a new module programmed. The damage would have been a lot worse if I would have let them run more diagnostics prior to fixing the issue. I complained to gm who said there was no recall on my vehicle and referred me to the federal safety agency. From what I understand the module can become contaminated because of wet conditions. On june 12, 2017 cheyenne wy had a very large hail storm that my vehicle was caught in while driving in the city and the module may have gotten wet causing the problem. My complaint is that gm recalled this same part on all these other vehicles to include 2010 traverses but for what ever reason my VIN number is not included. I believe it should be because my vehicle had the exact same issue as to why they recalled all these others. I still have the faulty module if anyone wants to check it out because it is the same part and part number which was recalled. My vehicle should be included in this recall and I should be reimbursed my money for this repair.
I bought this traverse used with only 7,000 miles. After about a year, the radio and screen would not turn off after turning the car off and opening the door. It would remain on even after turning the ignition on and off or opening the drivers door several times. The front passenger window does not go down using the driver side controls, despite multiple attempts to fix it. I have learned to live with the issues when recently addition problems have appeared. For some reason it feels like I am driving with the emergency brake engaged or pulling a heavy trailer. Most of the time I have to press harder on the gas just to make the vehicle go. As a result, the gas mileage has dropped significantly. Also, suddenly the air conditioner for the driver blows only warm air while all the other vents blow cold. There is a constant clicking sound behind the dash and I am about to replace a second actuator. Finally, there is a loud noise from the engine like it is still running after it is turned off and the key is out of the ignition. I have to turn the ignition on and off again for it to stop. Even then, the engine fan remains on, which it never did before. All these started just as it was about to hit 80,000 miles.
Gas tank does accurately show how much gas I have left. The fuel gauge constantly fluctuates. I was driving and my mile range showed I had 54 miles worth of gas left. I made a stop and the car was idling and when I got back in the car it showed I had 89 miles worth of gas left. When I got to my destination I got the low fuel warning message. I have watched my fuel gauge and mile range go up incrementally while in park. This issue is the same issue as a recall with later models and it can cause a terrible accident if my car stalls or shuts off because there was not as much gas in the car as the gauge states. Similar recall below with same exact issues. Recall subject : inaccurate fuel gauge reading report receipt date: apr 30, 2014 the federal safety agency campaign number: 14v223000 component(s): electrical system , fuel system, gasoline potential number of units affected: 51,640 manufacturer: general motors llc
Not sure I should do this but it has occured 2 times bow. My traverse eccelerator gets stuck down and you cant atop. The only way to stop is put in nutral if you have the time. I am afraid to have my wife deive this. It happened for the 2nd time since I have owned it the other day. The breaks wont worm unless you put it into nutral!!!
Fuel gage started reading half full no matter if. Tank full or empty. Digital miles left to travel match a half full tank.
