The vehicle has a brake light over the hatch but no bottom brake lights. Replaced bulbs and fuses and brake light switch and still no brake lights. Took it to a shop and they don't know what's wrong. After getting gas I crunk car, put it in drive and car started going in reverse and front air wouldn't work either but back air did. It seems to be an electrical issue. Just got vehicle in June of 2023. The brake light issue needs attention immediately very dangerous. I've been behind an Acadia and an Equinox and noticed they don't have bottom brake lights either. The spare tire is also too low and squeaky when operating vehicle and can fall of while driving. Please fix these issues it's very dangerous and very upsetting.

Stabilitrak control light comes on and doesnt turn off for hours or days, especially during long rides. Vehicle jerks and takes longer to get up to speed.

Stabilitrak light was on, then the alarm said traction control off, the check engine light came on. The Traverse certainly has recall problems that need to be looked into, it is a family car. I have provided a you tube link that explains and shows the problem, https://youtu.be/hBvaOIIxnXY I have the same problem on my car.

While driving on the highway at 65 MPH the stability control sensor, ABS sensor, and all wheel drive went out all at once, when that happened the car by itself went to 35 MPH on the highway and would not allow the car to go over 35 MPH.

My 2014 chevy traverse has been having this issue for months now. I will be driving and my service stabilitrak, traction control off, check engine light will light up, and engine power reduced will pop up. I can not go over 20 MPH. At times the engine will become very stally, jerky, my steering wheel and brakes will be very hard to use. These are very random and non patterned I will have to safely pull over rather it be on a back road or a highway wherever it happens turn the engine off for 5-20 minutes and it will eventually clear everything but the check engine light; which will clear within that day or the next until the next time it happens. It has also cause my key to lock up in the ignition. This is very unsafe and scary. This is my family car and will eventually cause an accident and hurt myself, my kids, or someone else. If you google the issue there are tons of forums, websites, blogs that have the same issue with this car. I have spent numerous hours investigating the issue, lots of money replacing parts as recommended or by the check engine light and it continues to do this. Gm is going to have a lawsuit on their hands when someone gets seriously hurt over this issue because they are not doing anything about it.

I was entering the on-ramp going east and my vehicle completely stopped. I was going around 25-30 MPH and I had my kids in the car. My computer forced my brakes and I was unable to drive the vehicle. My SUV literally made a full stop while driving at 25-30 MPH with my kids in the car and no brake lights ignited. The check engine light and the traction control light came on. They eventually turned off. This happened one other time. I was driving on a residental street and the vehicle stopped again. My husband whom was driving the car said the car just stopped in the middle of the intersection. He tried pressing the traction control button because the check engine light and the traction control light came on and the brakes were forced again and nothing. Imagine going 25mph and stopping abruptly without brake lights for other cars to see. This time I did research and I saw that other 2014 chevy traverses were recalled for the chassis module (recall number 14v614000). I saw youtube videos and I checked several consumer the complaint websites and I literally saw over 10 other complaints about the same issue this month! I also put a reader in my vehicle and the two codes that come up is p16aa & p1682. One is for the electronic module system in which the chassis (pertaining to the recall) is listed under). I called the dealer and they said that the recall was active for 2014 chevy traverses..... But not mine! I am completely disgusted. These vehicles will kill you - literally and they know it, and they refuse to do anything about it! Now I'm paying a car note and I can't even drive it - for the safety of my family, others, and myself. Shame on them - again this is happening to other people! This is a urgent request for help!
