Had the whole ECM replaced as well as all wire harnesses inspected. Fuse box inspection and retighned. All fuses and relays checked. Ignition switch replacement as well. The code for P1682 went away months but has now returned. Also have replaced battery and few other minor items. The car will go into limp mode randomly on freeway or roads. Almost caused an accident since the power steering stops working as well.

What 2014 Chevrolet Traverse owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
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 contact owns a 2014 Chevrolet Traverse. The contact stated that the air bag warning light was illuminated. While turning the steering wheel, there was an abnormal sound of moving change. The contact received notification of the federal safety agency Campaign Number: 23V334000 (Air Bags) however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The local dealer was contacted. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The failure mileage was approximately 113,727. VIN tool confirms parts not available.
I know there are recalls on other Chevy traverse for air bags. My air bag light goes off every so often, I’m just waiting for the day for it to go off in my face while driving. My power steering pressure pump has been leaking, no longer have power steering, makes driving very difficult/unsafe. I’ve heard of many other Traverse vehicles with the same problem, but why is it not being addressed?
Airbags light turns off & on. Then my vehicle will reset itself while driving. All gauges & lights turn off in vehicle & I have to pull over, turn the car on & off for it to work. Vehicle airbag will also make a popping sound when airbag light turns on & off. Vehicle turns off while driving & fuel light will say full then drop to empty. Power steering will go out & turn back on randomly.
When driving the vehicle will have a sudden lose of engine power with no warning signs. It will say “engine power reduced” then say “service stabilitrac”, and “traction control off”. This morning when it happened I was turning into a parking lot to drop my kids off and almost hit a sign because the engine completely stalled mid turn. I have also had it happen to me on major highways.
I was going down the interstate and the stabilitrak, traction control, check engine lights all came on. Engine reduced power light came on I lost all power of the vehicle, I was in heavy traffic and forced off of the road because my engine died. I went from doing 70 MPH down to 10 MPH and came very close to getting rear ended by a semi truck and trailer. When I got to the shoulder of the road I wasn't able to get my vehicle started back and had to call a tow truck. This has happened on multiple occasions. I have seen where this is a problem in this year model of this vehicle and wondering why it hasn't been recalled yet by the manufacturer before someone loses there life.
Was a recall on some power steering pumps and faulty electrical systems in the 2014 chevy traverse. Car making loud noise when turn wheel. Problem just diagnosed by mechanic. See my VIN not included in recall. Very dangerous. Found because turning the wheel has become difficult and it sounds like engine strained.
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.
