While driving 75 on a freeway the service stabilitrak, service traction control, and check engine lights all came on. the engine power was reduced and i couldn't go over 40mph all at once. the vehicle was limped off the freeway without any incident with another vehicle, thank god and brought to a mechanic. he said that he has seen hundreds of the same issue over the past few years on the same vehicle and other chevrolet vehicles. he told me that this will happen to diagnose a more general issue that could be wrong with the vehicle and that it could be a number of things that need to be tested without replacing hundreds or potentially thousands of dollars worth of parts. it could be even be one of a variety of sensors on the vehicle. my complaint is that with such a high tech computer on the vehicle, how is it that there is not a specific problem code or light to tell you or a mechanic what is actually wrong with the vehicle. secondly that a general code coming up on a car should not be powering the engine down so drastically. that could have been very dangerous if there was someone right behind me. this is a hazard worth a recall before someone is injured or killed because of it.
While driving with no warning the check engine light comes in, the dash flashes service stabiltrak, traction control off and engine power reduced. the vehicle slows down to 25 mph and if you try to speed up it shutters and bucks. i have to pull over and return it off and then when turning it back on the check engine light stays on for about a day but other warning lights are gone. this has happened three times and i have almost been hit every time, because the vehicle just slows itself down to 25 mph with no warning while you are driving.
We purchased our 2016 chevy traverse new and now have approx. 38k miles on it. after the 1st year, we began experiencing power loss issues and ended up having fuel injectors replaced in mid-2017. since then, we've been experiencing the same issue that has already been reported to the nhtsa by other owners. periodically, our "service stabilitrak" will appear on the dash and the "traction control off" will appear, along with the "check engine light". when this happens, the vehicle runs extremely rough and violently shakes back and forth. i've had the vehicle into autonation chevy in both gilbert, az and mesa, az for a total of 5 times since mid-2017 for this issue. i just picked it up a few days ago after being in the shop for over 2 weeks. unfortunately, no repairs were made as no codes were found/stored in the computer and the mechanic was unable to replicate the issue during the 2 week period. this is clearly a safety issue and i'm a bit surprised no resolution has been made given the complaints regarding this issue just in 2018. this has occurred while driving, while idling and while waiting to turn in a busy intersection and almost led to an accident. i will be taking the vehicle back to autonation once again today. gm/chevy please review and offer guidance as to what's going on before fatalities occur. thank you.
My car is a 2016 and it's not leaking fluid but i have had to filll the transmission fluid up three times since i had it and i bought it brand new in 2016
I purchased this traverse brand new in 2016. i now have 51xxx miles. i have had to refill the transmission 3 times since i've had it. but absolutey no leaks. prior to that i was experiencing weird transmission slippage at ocwerd times. another quirk is that sometimes when i put gas in my var, the hand does not move at all until i drive maybe 20 miles but it has me wondering. keep in mind all this weird behavior with no check engine light. the vehicle rattles at 1000 rpm. like it might be a timing chain. doesnt always go in to gear. shows faulty gas gauge. i have yet to hear clicking noises at speeds above 20mph (dont know what that could be)

The service stability track and traction control light still comes on all the time. i loose speed and the car bucks. brought to chevy and said they could see that i had a problem but did not tell the issue
2016 chevy traverse engine traction control, stabiltrak problem. engine light came on, display stated reduce speed to 25 mph and the above warning flashed on the dash display. the car lost acceleration power. it happened twice in about a two week period. the first time it happened was on 12/18/17, i stopped the first time at a parts store to get the code readings but they did not have the equipment to read the codes. the second time it happened was on 12/27/17, i stopped at another parts store and they read the codes which came up as p2138. engine light was off the next morning and i took it into advantage chevy in bolingbrook, il. they made an appointment and told me most likely i need to replace the accelerator pedal and sensor, but until they check it out it could be something else too. i wish i would have taken pictures of the display also.
Check engine light turned on, along with warnings: service stabilitrak and engine power reduced while the car was in motion. physical speed of car was reduced to 25 mph and could not accelerate over that speed.
I was at a red light, foot on the brake when the vehicle accelerated jumping from 1000rpm to 3000rpm, multiple times in a row. causing my car to lunge forward over and over again. i contacted the dealership immediately & was asked to drive my car in. i was headed to a destination first. when i arrived at my destination, i turned the car off for approximately 5 minutes. when i turned my car back on, there was a loud bang noise, car smelled like something was on fire & the acceleration did not return. what did happen was i now had no air conditioning. dealership stated it was the ac compressor that went out and caused all the issues.
Driving ability concern:car stops and after aceleration does not move. after pressing the pedal hard it begins to acerlerate. the dealer tried to fix it twice but it still had the same problem..
