Chevrolet Traverse grinding brakes problems

Filed Oct 13, 2026 · Transmission · NY

My 2023 traverse rs experienced a loud grinding noise and sudden loss of power, almost like i slammed the brakes on while moving. I was in the middle of the road and i could have been rear ended. 10/12/26. This matches the GM recall N222389310 exactly but my vin is currently excluded. I am also experiencing a heavy vibration since 9/13/2026 similar to diving over rumble strips, it is intermittent and will not throw a code, its been to the GM dealership where new transmission fluid was put in, however started again, that did not solve the problem . GM does not have a recall for torque converter clutch they are aware and had put out a technical service bulletin TSB-23-NA-072.

Driver side windshield wiper does not clear window, blades have been replaced and still not fixed. Appears to be a wiper arm issue. Rear camera blips out, goes black or shows half a screen during use. Happens almost daily and has caused me to nearly hit cars and or people. Front tire sensor will not recalibrate. Brakes make horrible squeaking noises- Dealer advised this is a known issue with the type of brakes installed on these cars and nothing can be done. Taking car in for service for all these issues.

Sudden slamming on the brake automatically when in reverse and there is nothing around the car to cause this. Has happened many times The car will alert that something is too close when turning right by there is nothing there. It is intermittent. When you start the car it the motor reves up very high and will stay there until you push the gas and then it quiets down. This is usually the first start of the day. High and rough idle Super hard intermittent transmission shift or down shifting while normal driving. It jerks really hard and sometime it’s so hard it throws you forward like the brake is being applied. Symbol intermittently shows up on dash. Then goes away after the car has been turned off and restarted. Brakes squeal bad. Acceleration reduction message then check engine light came on 8/30. Roaring loud noise before the light came on. Put 1 gallon coolant in it and light went off. Now runs and idles high.

I have had my vehicle for almost going on 2 years I went from a car that I had issues with to a brand new vehicle with issues/repairs needed on. Nothing has been recalled on my vehicle at all and it should be recalled on my vehicle I have had a lot of issues w/ my vehicle and I should not, now there is another issue w/ the drivers window button where it gets stuck does not put the window down or works only sometimes I found info about it general motors technical service bulletin gm tsb 25-na-022 addresses problems where the driver's door window gets stuck or works only sometimes. The driver window may not roll up or down, or it may stop working after you press the button. How is that not known issue for my vehicle VIN I should not have to be dealing with these known problems on a brand new almost 2 years old vehicle at all its frustrating to deal with vehicle problems with a brand new purchased vehicle another issue with the vehicle is the brakes that squeak of course gm said unless I was under certain mileage it can be fixed like how is that even fair for the owner to even handle on their own out of pocket cost. This is insanely crazy to have to deal with known issues on a vehicle and nothing can even been done . You all need to look into my VIN # and find the issue with the general motors technical service bulletin gm tsb 25-na-022 driver window stuck or intermittent operation concerns but of course my vehicle VIN has not even been recalled for this specific problem but it is known issue? How does that even make sense at all? You all need to look into my vehicle with these issues

My breaks have been squealing on my 2024 Traverse since about 6 months after my purchase in 2024. I have taken it to the dealership on multiple occasions and they stated that GM knows of the issue but there is no fix. The system states my front breaks are low. I recently took my Traverse to a break repair/replacement shop and they stated my breaks are not low and they look great and numerous people have brought their Traverse in with the same squealing complaint. With the amount of complaints why hasn't GM done anything about it?

I purchased a brand-new 2025 Chevrolet Traverse and have been dealing with a loud brake squeal that makes the vehicle sound like it has worn-out brakes. I’ve taken it to two different Chevrolet dealerships, and instead of fixing the issue, I’ve repeatedly been told that this is a common problem with the 2025 Traverse and that many owners are experiencing the same thing. I’ve been given multiple explanations, including weather conditions and the vehicle needing to warm up, but no actual solution. I was even told there is currently no fix available through GM and that replacing the brake pads will not resolve the problem. What is most frustrating is that everyone seems to acknowledge the issue while also telling customers to simply live with it. This is a brand-new vehicle, and customers should not be expected to accept a known brake defect as normal. Very disappointed with both the dealership experience and GM’s response to what appears to be a widespread issue.

Brakes have been squeaking since purchasing the vehicle brand new. Have been told that “this is a known issue but it’s “normal””.

At approximately 30,000 miles, upon starting my 2025 Chevrolet Traverse LT, the brake pedal traveled completely to the floorboards with zero resistance. Simultaneously, the 'Service Brake Assist' warning message appeared. This loss of hydraulic pressure occurred while stationary. This follows a dealership visit one week prior for a 'glitchy' check engine light that was dismissed by service staff.The vehicle is being towed via flatbed to the dealership as it is unsafe to operate. Additionally, the vehicle has exhibited abnormally 'touchy' brake response and a persistent high-pitched squeal from the front assembly since purchase. These symptoms suggest a failure of the e-Boost braking system and/or internal master cylinder seals, consistent with Service Update N242482170. This defect poses an immediate risk of total brake failure during operation.
