The high-pressure fuel pump/fuel delivery system failed on my 2023 Chevrolet Traverse at approximately 47,480 miles. The vehicle generated diagnostic trouble code P0091. An authorized Chevrolet dealership inspected the vehicle and documented that the high-pressure fuel pump was “internally faulty” and required replacement. The vehicle and/or failed component may be available for inspection upon request, depending on whether the dealership retains the component after replacement. This failure presents a significant safety concern because the high-pressure fuel pump is responsible for maintaining proper fuel delivery to the engine. Failure of this system can result in hesitation, reduced engine performance, loss of power, stalling, or failure to start. A sudden loss of engine power while traveling at highway speeds, entering an intersection, or merging into traffic could increase the risk of a crash and endanger vehicle occupants and other motorists. The malfunction was confirmed by an authorized Chevrolet dealership through diagnostic testing. The dealership identified code P0091 and specifically documented the high-pressure fuel pump as internally faulty. To my knowledge, the vehicle has not been separately inspected by General Motors, law enforcement, an insurance company, or another independent investigator. Warning lights appeared intermittently prior to the diagnosis. The lights would illuminate and later turn off, despite the underlying malfunction still being present. I am concerned that a critical fuel-system component experienced an internal failure at only approximately 47,480 miles. I am requesting that the federal safety agency document and evaluate this failure to determine whether similar high-pressure fuel pump failures are occurring in other 2023 Chevrolet Traverse vehicles and whether this condition represents a potential vehicle safety defect.

I own a 2023 Chevrolet Traverse. While driving, the vehicle suddenly began jerking very hard during acceleration and shifting. The Check Engine Light illuminated, and the vehicle became unsafe to drive because the transmission was not operating normally. I was concerned that the vehicle could suddenly lose power or fail while driving in traffic, increasing the risk of a crash. I took the vehicle to a Chevrolet dealership for diagnosis. The dealer found the transmission fluid was burned and diagnosed transmission trouble codes P0797 and P0700, indicating an internal transmission problem. Transmission .PDF Before the failure, I experienced harsh shifting and jerking that became progressively worse until the warning light came on. The problem has been confirmed by a Chevrolet dealership. The failed transmission is available for inspection upon request. I am submitting this complaint because I believe this transmission failed prematurely at approximately 68,933 miles. I am concerned that other owners may experience the same failure, creating a serious safety risk if the transmission loses power or fails while the vehicle is in motion.
