Because of this error, the system won’t deploy the air bags in the case of an accident. NHTSA Campaign Number 18V774000 discusses how some air bag Sensing Diagnostic Modules never got turned off of the manufacturing mode before installation. All this seems to happen when it is supposed to automatically start back up after being stopped for a short period of time.”Ĭhevy dealt with a recall because of an electrical system issue that put owners at risk. Also when it shuts down completely the brake pedal goes soft and drops down to the floor. In high traffic areas this can be a safety concern. This has happened to us 6 times now within the last 2 weeks. So then it takes a bit to get it running again to go. The infotainment center goes black like the car was shut off using the start/stop button. Other times it kills the whole car, shutting it down completely. “When stopping the vehicle, the auto-stop kicks in, which sometimes works well. If something isn’t running right in a modern vehicle, there’s a good chance that it has something to do with the electrical system, since so many parts rely on this power.Īn NHTSA complaint illustrates just one thing that can go wrong. WE HAD THIS CAR FOR 3 MONTHS AND IT’S HAPPENED ABOUT FIVE TIMES NOW. AND IT ALMOST CAUSED ME TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT FROM A CAR FROM THE OTHER DIRECTION. WHEN BRAKING TO DO A U-TURN AND NOT STOPPING THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF AND DOESN’T COME BACK ON RIGHT AWAY. TOOK THE CAR THAT AFTERNOON BACK TO DEALER AND IT HAD BEEN THERE SINCE. THE VERY NEXT DAY 7/17 AM, SAME THING HAPPENED. TOOK CAR IN 7/16 AT 7:30 AND GOT BACK THAT DAY STATING THAT CAR TRANSMISSION COMMUNICATION DROPPED. RECEIVED AN ADVANCED DIAGNOSIS THAT STATED ISSUE WITH ENGINE/TRANMISSION SERVICE WITHIN ONE DAY. I WAS DRIVING VEHICLE AND STOPPED AT LIGHT. Here are some actual complaints logged with the NHTSA about the 2019 Chevy Traverse Engine Problems: Whatever the engine troubles are, customers have taken notice, just as Chevrolet hoped. As an example Service Bulletin #18NA246 talks about how the engine oil might have excessive fuel in it, which would require a PCV valve replacement in the camshaft cover and an update to the ECM. It seems that the company is dealing with numerous engine issues. For a warranty of only 30,000 and only at less than half with 2 issues already is worrisome.” ![]() I’m just very disappointed with this experience. I’m sure they are sending them off the line without issues but here I am in a Tahoe loaner basic model and I must say it drives a lot better than the Traverse plus it has the HD radio stations that for some reason the Traverse does not. I took my Traverse for its second oil change to the dealership which I had to pay out of pocket since my dealership only offers 1 free oil change and shortly after, 2 weeks or so the engine light came on again, shocker! It turns out being the catalytic converter needing to be replaced this part went to a “special case” so there is no ETA being that it’s a 2019 and they are having trouble getting the part. I took it in for service and within about 1 week and half my Traverse catalytic converted was repaired. At about 6,000 miles a few weeks after my 1st oil change my engine light came on resulting in a catalytic converter issue, replacement. I purchased the 2019 Traverse Premier, I was afraid of changing from a compact car to a SUV but I have gotten adjusted to it. One Edmunds user states, “I was in love with this vehicle as everyone should be when purchasing a new vehicle. It needs to be potent and properly functioning in order for customers to be impressed. ![]()
