Chevrolet Traverse fuel gauge problems

Filed Sep 20, 2024 · Fuel system · MD

The fuel gauge in my vehicle is not functioning correctly. It is showing that my fuel level is very low/empty even with a full tank of gas. I took it to the repair shop and the it had the codes P0452 for the fuel tank pressure sensor circuit and P0463 for the fuel level sensor. The repair shop replaced the fuel pump module which did not fix the problem. They suggested it appears to have an ECM issue. This exact problem is a recall on the 2014 Chevy Traverse however my vehicle is not included in this recall.

While driving my car, the instrument panel just went blank. My gages all read 0. No speedometer, no battery voltage, no fuel level. The driver information center also shut off. Blinkers would not work, door lock/unlock button did not work after stopping the car. The engine never felt like it lost power and my car would still drive but I could not signal or see how fast I was going.

7/5/22 it has now been over a month since we started to have our car serviced at Ourisman Chevrolet of Bowie. On 7/3/22 while driving up a hill in our neighborhood the engine shut off, the brakes gave out, and the power steering stopped working. Had we been anywhere else my children, husband, and I could be dead from being in a serious car accident. This problem was confirmed by the dealer and reported to be caused by a "defective part" being installed. When I inquired about why there wasn't a recall for this part I was informed that it is a rare defect but they the service department receives a vehicle with identical problems every 3-4 months. We received no warning lamps, messages, or other signs that this was going to happen. During the week of Memorial Day we noticed the fuel gauge misreading and the air conditioning blowing warm. This problem was repeatedly reported. The air conditioning was repaired. The fuel gauge continues to misread.

I have a 2017 traverse, bought it with just a few thousand miles on it back in 2017. I started having problems the day after I bought it. The car would die almost every day. Finally got that issue fixed. A few months later the washer fluid stopped working. I took it in to have it looked at and they said it had a hole in it. I had it replaced. A few months later my engine starts making a really loud noise when accelerating and my steering wheel would get so tight when I turned it, that I couldn't turn. I took it to be looked at and was told it had a hole in the steering pump and a pin needed to be replaced as well as the pump. I had that replaced. A few weeks later I'm getting gas and try to start my car and it stalls. I try to start it again and it starts, but it acts like it wants to die. The fuel gauge needle stays on e, even though I just filled my tank up. This same issue has happened 3 times now after getting gas. My steering has starting making a squeaking noise when I turn it. My engine is so loud when I'm driving, it's definitely not a normal sound. When my car sits in park with the engine in you can hear the engine whistling and revving up on its own, and then it acts as though it wants to die.

I purchased this traverse brand new in 2016. I now have 51xxx miles. I have had to refill the transmission 3 times since I've had it. But absolutey no leaks. Prior to that I was experiencing weird transmission slippage at ocwerd times. Another quirk is that sometimes when I put gas in my var, the hand does not move at all until I drive maybe 20 miles but it has me wondering. Keep in mind all this weird behavior with no check engine light. The vehicle rattles at 1000 RPM. Like it might be a timing chain. Doesnt always go in to gear. Shows faulty gas gauge. I have yet to hear clicking noises at speeds above 20mph (dont know what that could be)

Recall (14007) repair was supposedly done may 2014 at jeff gordon chevrolet in wilmington, nc. Car was put in the shop october 2017 at same place for same problem that prompted a recall, inaccurate fuel gauge reading. Extended warranty covered repair this time. Instrument cluster was replaced and problem fixed, according to jeff gordon chevrolet. June 27, 2018 - we ran completely out of gas even though fuel gauge showed a quarter of tank remained. Car shut off. Thankfully we were not in motion. We were sitting in a customer's driveway. Jeff gordon chevrolet will not cover repair, we have been told we are financially responsible. How can an obvious issue that was part of a recall not continue to be covered?

While driving my 2017 chevrolet traverse at interstate speeds, the vehicle, without warning, shut down. When I say shut down, I mean shut off completely. This was a complete loss of all power to the car. The engine shut off, the lights (internal and external) shut off, there was no power steering, the brakes where difficult to push down, etc. As I am now coasting down the interstate with no power to the car I put it in neutral and turned on my flashers. With no power steering and brakes that are stiff, I somehow was able to slowly force the car to the side of the interstate and get it to stop. I tried to restart the vehicle and it would not start. I put it in park and sat there for a few minutes before trying again. Once I tried, the vehicle started and I was able to drive home without further incident. The morning after this incident, I started up my traverse and noticed that the fuel gauge is showing empty, but the car had a half of a tank when I got home last night. There is something serious going on with this traverse and chevrolet vehicles in general. This is the 2nd different vehicle that I have owned that has shut down while driving down the road. The 1st car was a 2016 chevrolet impala.
