Chevrolet Traverse Power Train Safety Report | June 15, 2011
Reported on June 15, 2011
| THE TRAVERSE WAS PARKED IN THE LOT OF THE LOCAL GROCERY STORE, WHEN STARTED AND PLACED IN REVERSE IT BACKED UP JUST FINE, HOWEVER PUTTING IT IN DRIVE IT BRONCOED UP AND WOULD ONLY GO 30 MILES PER HOUR. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES . NOW THE POWER STEERING UNIT WHINES, THE SEATS IN THE BACK DO NOT RECLINE WELL AND THE MIDDLE SEAT BELT IN THE MIDDLE SEAT LOCKS AND I AM UNABLE TO SECURE MY 2 YEAR OLD IN HIS CARSEAT. I AM NOT PLEASED AT ALL WITH THE 2011 TRAVERSE, I SHOULD HAVE STUCK TO MY FIRST THOUGHTS AND BOUGHT THE SUBURBON THAT I KNOW. THE TRAVERSE IS THE WORST VEHICLE I HAVE EVER OWNED, WHILE IT WAS BEING REPAIRED AT THE DEALERSHIP, THEY OFFERED ME ANOTHER ONE TO DRIVE....I LAUGHED, I WENT AND RENTED A YUKON. NOW WHEN I GO OUT OF TOWN I RENT A VEHICLE MY $40,000.00 TRAVERSE SIT IN THE DRIVEWAY AS A LAWN ORNAMENT. CHEVROLET IN FLORIDA GOT ME REAL GOOD, NOW THEY STATE I AM UPSIDE DOWN IN THIS VEHICLE AND AM NOT ABLE TO TRADE WITHOUT A BIG DOWN PAYMENT. FUNNY THEY SELL ME A LEMON AND I CAN'T EVEN MAKE LEMONADE WITH IT. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6) *TT | |
