The contact owns a 2011 Chevrolet Traverse. The contact stated that the weight of the vehicle placed on the suspension caused the steering wheel and four wheels to not align. Due to the failure, the contact stated that the steering wheel would align 50% percent to the right causing the vehicle to be undriveable. The contact had taken the vehicle to an independent mechanic for multiple repairs including the control bushing, lower control arm, rack and pinion, and several other vehicle parts; however, the failure persisted.

Car was powering down at highway speeds and check engine light came on. Now needs timing chains replaced. Also started having issues with the steering not working and the steering rack is bad and needs replaces. Suspension is no good and all has to be redone. Vehicle only has 70,000 miles on it for being a 2011.

The air conditioner still faulty. Replaced hoses and freon. The struts still leaking fluid around tire area since purchased. I see many complaints online at different forums about this. My engine light comes on intermittently anf when I have it tested it just says o2 sensors. The light will stay on for 1-2 days and then go out and remain off for several months at a time. Everything in the car is plastic and keeps popping off. I have replaced so many door and seat pieces that this is crazy even down to replacing motor mounts. I love chevrolet but this by far has been my most aggravating and costly purchase.... I used to go to my local chevy dealer for service but I noticed when I log in to my chevy/gm profile they don't load anything innthe system for chevy to see you are really maintaining your car. These dealers are ripping people off.

Approximately 2 weeks ago after hitting a very small pot hole I noticed a loud noise when I would turn the steering wheel to the right only 3 days after that it's still to right and never to the left but does make some noise straight. Called our dealer for an appointment but it's going to be a while 5-15 and they checked and no recalls are on our car but I've read numerous safety issues about these vehicles. Last week while it was raining I noticed my car felt like it was sliding or skating once again called dealer was told still can't help any sooner. Now today while windy and raining it was awful literally a fight to keep it in the road it was swaying and most definitely did not feel safe. Myself and my husband have 3 sons and he works for the state of ky forestry dept. Fighting wildfires and works a lot and is sometimes out of state for 21-40 days straight so he's not here much to check things out. Our boys are all into sports and other after school programs year round with lots of traveling involved. My concern is from all the suspension issues I've read that there was a recall on my car but says 0 which doesn't seem right. I wanna be sure that my family will be safe when in this vehicle and as if right now it sure doesn't feel like it. Please help me find more info because hitting a pot hole (very small bump zero damage) shouldn't cause all these problems requiring my family to have to spend a ton of money to fix. This isn't good business and I would hope chevrolet would care if the safety of a whole family would be in jeporady over something that shouldn't be wrong with my vehicle that by the way only has 79000 miles on it. Hope someone gets in contact with me thanks have a great day.

I only made one payment on my car and I don't feel it's safe to drive or put my kids in. The steering and tires or something just sway pull noise and I feel I don't have any control.
