2015 Chevrolet Traverse electrical problems

Filed Dec 9, 2025 · Airbags, Driver assistance · ID

The 2015 Chevy Traverse LTZ that I own is presenting with the same problems as many of its body style and year. The water intrusion has caused wiring to corrode in the side detection system & the drivers door wiring harness is presenting with open circuits. The LH side object module is throwing code U0233:00. They tested circuits at RH module. Found water intrusion in module, & corrosion on terminals & harness. Due to nature of location of modules, they recommend replacing LH & RH modules & harness. DTC B0085:05 current. Tested circuits & found open circuit internal to drivers door harness. Recommend replacing harness. The air bag code threw 2 days after I bought the veh 04/01/25, I attempted to contact the dealership I bought the vehicle from, AutoCredit in Hayden, ID, who admitted to the dangerous code being present, and that they were going to do nothing about it. Some time late April, my veh threw the code for side detection. On 05/27/25 I took my veh into Taylor & Sons Chevy in Ponderay, who dx my codes, and advised the above was needed. They also confirmed the fact that when that airbag code is present, that none of my airbags would deploy at time of impact if a collision occurred. This is a huge safety risk as much of my daily commute is on the hwy, and the influx of drivers in my area not familiar with the roads is increasing daily. My side detection system is a safety hazard as well due to the Traverse’s blind spots. Thank you for your time. I did not know what to do until I contacted Chevy directly who advised me to contact the federal safety agency.

The rear lower brake lights stopped working. Only the top center brake light will work. This is the second time in about a month and a half that this has happened. The first time the dealer replaced the brake light switch located on the brake pedal. This time I have been told that the main fuse block has to be replaced. If this is not fixed, this will cause other system's to malfunction including the ABS, transmission not shifting properly (this happened the first time). I had about 3 or 4 different warning messages the first time this happened. These fuse blocks are on national back order. Unknown when I will be able to get the part. In the meantime, I have a vehicle that I cannot drive due to safety problems. I have done some research and found that GM has major problems with these fuse blocks. This problem is caused by a poor design of the fuse block by GM.

On March 4, 2023, I purchased a 2015 Chevrolet Traverse from Landers Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram located in Norman, Oklahoma. Before actually purchasing the vehicle and after inspection it was stated to the dealership that the [XXX] would not purchase the vehicle with the various problems notated before purchase. After receiving a verbal agreement that the problems would be fixed my wife and I signed the contract. My wife and I took the car to Lawton Oklahoma from Mach 4 to March 8 when we were to return the vehicle for repairs. Then on March 17, 2023, we picked the vehicle up from Landers after repairs. After leaving Landers Chrysler and then getting onto HE Bailey Turnpike the vehicle’s check engine light came back on, and the passenger headlight was out again. However, on March 20, 2023, [XXX] wrote a letter to Landers Chrysler with several complaints which needed to be rectified. •RE: Failure to disclose material information, and/or making a false representation of a present or past material fact such as a diagnostic trouble code: (Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold [possible needed repairs] 2015 Chevrolet Traverse) known to dealer, and by the dealer’s failing to disclose such information involving the vehicle's history to a recent purchaser, and Lending Institution. Landers Chrysler did fix the problem with the check engine light, but refused to fix the front headlight problem, and told the [XXX] that since they had a service contract, that should cover the headlight situation. However, that is not the case. The service contract does not cover headlight problems, and Classic Chevrolet where the vehicle is now located wants to charge me over $2000 to fix the problem. Although my wife and I thought that the headlight was fixed, it was later learned that it was not. I sincerely believe that Landers Chrysler knew that the headlights and possibly light switches had serious problems, then sold the vehicle knowing this.

The biggest problem is that mechanics don't know how to fix this problem. Traction control needs servicing with causes you to lose acceleration on the freeway. Then sometimes stabilitrac also goes off. Now the vehicle engine keeps running when turned off. The air conditioning sometimes randomly won't work at all, and last the tire servicing system now won't sync.

on my vehicle the Electrical system in the Drivers door and All 4 doors have connector connecting the doors electrical to the main Body harness. These connectors DO NOT HAVE a gasket or any means of sealing out the weather, This connector rides between door and body between the Hinges and is exposed to weather and Road Conditions. This Connector not being weather Proofed has rotted and shorted/Corroded pins. This failure of the Pins has disabled all electrical function controlled from the Driver door. 1. Driver is unable to adjust Power mirrors. 2. Driver is unable to lock or unlock other doors. 3. Driver is unable to Disable Other passengers ability to open or close ANY power windows 4. Driver is unable to open/close Drivers window and or Passenger windows. (ie child opens) 5. Driver is unable to Open or close any power windows. 6. Should driver manually lock Driver Door and become incapacitated in any way, Driver Door lock does not respond to Lock/UN-Lock form other doors or computer. I recently bought this vehicle in a private sale, Previous owner did point out window buttons not working, I believe was unaware of the other Door Controls not functioning, was un-aware of functions not working. Searching on google has reviled this issue to me on wide range of years and makes for Chevy/GMC

The headlights constantly burn out, at a rate of one bulb every two months. It would be a tragic safety event if they both went out at the same time. The design of the headlight system is poor in that you have to replace the light through the inner fender, making it nearly impossible to do without touching the bulb. Poor design and something needs to be done to address this issue.
