The vehicle stalls while driving at any speed. It has left me on the highway or the middle of an intersection with myself & my kids in danger. The check engine light comes on before the vehicle shuts off completely & loses power & steering. The traction control & stability warning also come on. The vehicle has rolled backwards while in park numerous times so I have to use the parking brake on a regular basis as a safety precaution. The power steering is also an issue. The driver seat belt & air bags make this car a rolling death TRAP. There are past recalls or safety concerns for the traverse that are the exact same issue that I’m having but they are not specific to my vin number so the dealership refuses to address them! Is 7 recalls & they all apply to this vehicle! I’ve attempted to have the vehicle repaired multiple times & they have failed & the same problem returns. I just want my vehicle to be safe & not put myself or my family in danger of being injured or killed.

The second time this happened i was driving on the freeway at 66 mph & it randomly turned off and the speed was reduced on seconds. This incident was very dangerous to the point were i almost got hit with my family in the vehicle I needed a tow truck to take me home and it was super risky and dangerous because other vehicles were passing about 2 ft away from us and at a high speed.

While driving, check engine light went on, stabilitrack and traction control went off (information from Driver Information Center) and power was reduced. This occurred several times a week and vehicle slowed down dramatically and had to be driven slowly from the roadway. This was a dangerous situation. After safely stopping, I was able to resume travel after turning off engine and restarting, although check engine light would remain on for several on/off cycles. Engine stored code P1682. This has also happened while at a stop and when the accelerator was pressed, the vehicle would stall (sometimes in middle of intersection).

- Engine locked up and does not turn at all - Engine failed while our son was driving on the hwy to school and the car stalled. He was not able to turn the steering wheel and the gas peddle would not work. Luckily he knew to get off the road right away. - Gustmans Chevrolet in Kaukauna, WI confirmed this problem. After doing research and talking with the dealership. They said they are finding this is a common issue in the 2012-2014 Chevy Traverse, Buick Enclaves, and Acadias. - Just the dealership as of now - The check engine light went on and then went off the day before. No other message in the vehicle popped up. - The sad part is most of these vehicles are still in good shape and well taken care of. To be told we can only get $500 for this vehicle is just wrong. These vehicle engines should last longer than 9-10 years, Especially when we have done all the other maintenance on our vehicle.
