MY CHEVY TRAVERSE ROLLS BACK WHEN STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN ON A HILL BEFORE APPLYING THE GAS, WHEN YOU ATTEMPT TO TAKE OFF, YOU REALLY HAVE TO REV UP THE ENGINE OR LEAVE YOUR FOOT ON THE BRAKE WHILE APPLYING THE GAS OR IT WILL ROLL BACK. THIS HAPPENS ON ANY INCLINE NO MATTER SIZE. THE DEALER STATED THIS IS HOW THE CAR IS DESIGNED. WHAT MANUFACTURER WOULD DESIGN SOMETHING UNSAFE LIKE THAT? I FEAR FOR MY SAFETY IN THE SNOW AND ICE. MY SECOND INCIDENT INVOLVED BACKING OUT OF MY GARAGE, I BACKED APPROX 4 FT AND THEN HAD TO GO OVER A 3" SPEED BUMP, BUT MY CAR WOULDN'T CONTINUE TO GO BACKWARDS, UNTIL I REVVED UP TO 2000 RPMS. THEN IF FINALLY MADE IT OVER THE 3" HUMP. THEY SAY THIS IS NORMAL FOR THE 6 SPEED TRANSMISSION I HAVE BECAUSE OF THE "GREEN' ENVIRONMENT CHANGES MADE TO GIVE IT MORE FUEL ECONOMY. GREEN ENVIRONMENT OVER SAFETY WHAT IS OUR GOVERNMENT THINKING, IF THIS IS REALLY THE TRUTH. I AM NOW CONCERNED I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO KEEP MY CAR IN MY GARAGE, WHEN THE SNOW AND ICE FALL AS I WON'T BE ABLE TO REV IT THAT HIGH OR I WILL WRECK MY VEHICLE INTO THE SIDE OF MY GARAGE. I WOULD LIKE FOR GM TO MAKE THIS RIGHT AND IF NOT AND I HAVE A WRECK THEY PAY WHEN MY INSURANCE GOES UP DUE TO THEIR POOR DESIGN!! I DO LOVE THE STYLE AND ROOM IN MY SUV. THAT'S PROBABLY WHAT I WAS SOLD ON AS WELL AS THE COLOR. HOWEVER, THE ROOM IN THE VEHICLES MEANS NOTHING, WHEN I'M AFRAID I AM GOING TO CRASH INTO SOMEONE BEHIND ME. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY AN UNSAFE VEHICLE. GM NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. *TR

SERVICE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON DASHBOARD : SERVICE ALL WHEEL DRIVE. I TOOK MY NEW CAR BACK TO DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD IT WAS A COMPUTER "GLITCH" THAT GM APPARENTLY "WAS AWARE OF". THIS COULD BE BIGGER THAN IT SEEMS AND WARRANTS FURTHER INVESTIGATION. *TR
