NHTSA Complaint #10609796 — 2012 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE

I WAS DRIVING THROUGH A PARKING LOT AND THE STABILLITRACK LIGHT CAME ON, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FLASHED AND THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON. THE DRIVER CENTER SAID THE TRACTION CONTROL SHUT OFF AND IT ALSO STATED TO SERVICE STABILLITRACK. THE ENGINE SEEMED TO SLOW ITSELF AS WELL. I PARKED THE VEHICLE AND WAITED A FEW MINUTES. THE WARNING LIGHTS FINALLY WENT OFF ON THEIR OWN AND THE TRACTION CONTROL TURNED BACK ON, ON IT'S OWN. THE CAR SEEMED OK DRIVING HOME FOR 2 MILES AND ENGINE POWER SEEMED TO RETURN TO NORMAL BUT THERE SEEMS TO BE SOME HESITATION IN THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTING AT LOW SPEEDS TOO. I CALLED THE DEALER AND THE SOONEST THEY CAN GET ME IN TO CHECK THE CAR IS MONDAY. I ASKED IF IT WAS SAFE TO DRIVE AND THEY WOULD NOT COMMIT TO SAFETY OR RELIABILITY BUT REFUSED PROVIDE ANY RELIEF UNTIL MONDAY AND GAVE ME NO OFFER OF A LOANER CAR. I JUST DID SOME INVESTIGATING ONLINE TO RESEARCH WHAT THE CAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM MIGHT BE AND IT APPEARS THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE AND IT CAN OCCUR AT HIGH SPEEDS ON THE HIGHWAY. MANY FORUMS LIST MANY PEOPLE WITH THIS COMPLAINT. I AM CONCERNED THIS COULD OCCUR AGAIN AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. THE PROBLEM LOOKS TO BE INTERMITTENT AND WILL OCCUR WITHOUT WARNING AT ANY SPEED. IN MY OPINION THIS IS A SAFETY PROBLEM WHICH NEEDS TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY. I AM FEARFUL FOR MY FAMILIES SAFETY IN THIS VEHICLE. *TR
