| 2012 | VISIBILITY | 2012 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. CONSUMER STATES SEVERAL ISSUES WITH VEHICLE TO INCLUDE WINDOWS AND SEAT ISSUES *TGW THE CONSUMER STATED IF THE MIDDLE ROW PASSENGER WINDOWS WERE PARTIALLY ROLLED DOWN, THEY WOULD VIBRATE AND MAKE A HORRIBLE NOISE ASH SHE ACCELERATED AND EXCEEDED 30 MPH. THE PANEL BETWEEN EACH OF THE SIDE AND REAR WINDOWS WAS EXTREMELY LARGE AND PROVIDED A MAJOR BLIND SPOT ON BOTH SIDES OF THE VEHICLE PARTICULARLY WHEN BACKING UP OR CHANGING LANES. THE CONSUMER ADDED SMALL MIRRORS TO ASSIST WITH THE VISIBILITY. BOTH FRONT SEAT SQUEAKED OR CREAKED WHEN THEY WERE OCCUPIED. *JB |
| 2010 | STEERING | THE 1ST TIME IT HAPPENED, WE WERE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WITH THE ENTIRE FAMILY IN THE CAR. 2 ADULTS & 3 CHILDREN. THE STEERING LOCKS UP WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION. IT GETS WORSE WHEN YOU STEP ON THE BRAKE. THERE IS NO INDICATION OF A PROBLEM PRIOR, I.E. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, NOISE, ETC. WE TOOK IT TO A LOCAL DEALER & LUCKILY MADE IT JUST BEFORE THE WARRANTY WORE OFF. THE STEERING GEAR WAS REPLACED. ON NOVEMBER 26 MY WIFE WAS DRIVING THE CAR AND ONCE AGAIN WHILE IN MOTION THE STEERING WHEEL FROZE, AND GOT WORSE WHEN STEPPING ON THE BRAKE, NO INDICATION OF A PROBLEM PRIOR. SHE WAS JUST BARELY ABLE TO PULL IN THE DRIVEWAY. THE MOST FRIGHTENING THING WAS AN HOUR BEFORE SHE WAS ON THE HIGHWAY WITH CHILDREN IN THE CAR DURING RUSH HOUR. ONCE AGAIN TOOK THE CAR TO THE LOCAL DEALER & THIS TIME THE POWER STEERING PUMP WAS REPLACED. IT WAS CRACKED. I THINK THE CAR IS A DANGER TO THOSE IN IT & THOSE SHARING THE ROAD WITH IT. I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF STEERING FAILING IN A CAR. I SEE OTHER PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE TRAVERSE AND AM SHOCKED THAT THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL. *TR |
