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

Pullling up to the airport parking as i was getting my ticket to enter the parking lot the gate open and i step on the gas to continue when the truck shifted to the right being in between two barriers the truck did had minor scratches on the right bumper when it shifted to the right i could not go forward or reverse i got off to see what was wrong and i saw something under the right tire i got back in the car but could not move i got off again and took a good look and i saw the tired rod was broken the inside look like an explosion on the inner right side i call onstar and they provided me with a tow truck we took it to the dealer where it was bought on monday my husband call and they said they couldnt cover it cause it was due to a collision we said but we didnt crash or hit anything only when it shifted but had nothing severe on the body they said no contact your insurance we call chevrolet corporation and they said they believe the mechanics and they were not going to fix anything so they made our insurance pay for the damage which we believe its very unfair having a warranty we got the vehicle back and we hear a noise the tires has 2 gashes it took them 2 days to call back and said nothing is wrong with the vehicle and the tire at the moment they check it was not like that but now they notice is damage and they made us call our insurance again because they were not going to pay for anything or fix it. i believe this is the worst service and most of all i could of lost my life due to this incident or lost my baby since i am pregnant. i have pictures to prove where and what happen to it also tow truck man said it was the axle/tire rod when he pick it up. *tr
