Seatbelts and the electrical system need to get fixed.
We were driving about 50 miles and a trailer hit us from behind and the air safety bags were never activated had an impact in from and back and the seat belts didn't work either
Closing the second row seat broke the seat belt buckle. the car was stationary.
Tl* the contact owns a 2009 chevrolet traverse. when the vehicle was started, the service air bag and seat belt indicators illuminated and remained lit. team chevrolet in valparaiso, in (219- 210-4755) was called and recommended diagnostic testing. the vehicle was not diagnosed. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 132,000.
The covers for the second row seatbelts seem to have strchech out of it caseing. main issue the check engine when off and have been having issues with traction control, engine power reduced, misfire of different, oxygen sensor (after getting it replaced about 6 months ago, at chevy dealer) over $5,000 in different repairs and update and everything seems to still be having issues. recently the abs has been going of and was unable to drive it, at least 3 times. most happen on highway. the engine reduces power and the car feels like being pull back if the gas is release the abs start going off.
When putting the second row seat back into the seating position (after it was folded flat) part of the plastic on the seat belt buckle receptacle broke off and it no longer works. the buckle can just be pulled out now. there is a recall on this same issue so my vehicle's year, but chevrolet said my vehicle isn't included.

While driving the vehicle slipped out of drive and by the time i got home reverse was gone. i took it to the dealership, sunshine chevy in asheville nc, and it was only one month out of warranty. they tried to sell me a new transmission for $6,000.00 then after much fighting only charged a warranty deductable (never heard of such a thing) of $500.00. it has been five months and this new transmission is now doing the same thing! this car is a death trap. it rolls backwards when it is in drive, they have since claimed it is a design flaw and not covered under any warranty. it is like driving a straight drive, you have to keep your foot on the brake until you accelerate. i live in the mountains and it is a huge problem. there is also an seat belt recall that they have not fixed yet. i have had it in for a timing chain recall, and air bags, plus three others since purchasing this vehicle. i was told when i purchased this vehicle it had 10 years on the power train, is the transmission not a part of that? i have over 25 complaints for this same transmission issue and i am gathering more. how do we get this vehicle recalled?

While folding up the second row seating the middle seatbelt binds and has lead to broken cover. i am worried that it will lead to seatbelt failure because of the position of the belt placement. *tr
The first problem is that the second row, middle seat belt gets stuck after putting the row down flat. you have to put the row up and down a few times for it to start working. sometimes that works, sometimes it doesn't. i read about recalls on the model of my vehicle and this issue is listed as one of the recalls. chevrolet and gm insist that my "vin#" is not listed under the recalls, so it has to be diagnosed and dealt with as a normal problem. this is listed as a safety hazard with the recall because it may not restrain as it should, god forbid, during an accident. the second problem is there is a leak in the cargo hold. whenever it rains, (a little or a lot, it doesn't matter) water pools in the cargo hold. this is a safety hazard because now the vehicle smells of mold. there are many other problems as well. there is a problem with one of the tire sensors, the car shakes and the check engine light is on. *tr
We have a 2009 chevy traverse 8 passenger vehicle - the center row seat belts are the most poor design imaginable. they put the center seat belt buckle as a rigid outlet in the middle of the center seat. we have two car seats in our car & due to foster care need to be able to put in a booster seat in the middle - the car will not accept a booster seat because of the poor design. it is shocking that chevy did not put in a belt based seat belt here instead! i have seen a lot of people complaining about this & it really needs to be addressed by chevy! *tr
