Consumer Description

WHILE TRAVELING ON LOCAL ROAD IN MY TOWN, I WAS TRAVELING ABOUT 30MPH WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON AND I LOST POWER WITH SPEED BEING REDUCED. THANKFULLY, NO ONE WAS BEHIND ME SO I WAS ABLE TO CONTROL WHERE I WOULD STOP THE VEHICLE. I RETURNED TO MY HOUSE AND WENT ON LINE TO SEE WHAT THIS PROBLEM WAS AND SAW NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER TRAVERSE OWNERS WITH REGARDS TO THE SAME INCIDENT OCCURRING. FROM WHAT I HAVE BEEN READING, CHEVROLET IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM BUT DOESN'T SEEM TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS REPORTS OF THIS HAPPENING ON MAJOR HIGHWAYS WHERE THE SPEED WAS MUCH GREATER THAN MINE AND THANKFULLY NO ONE WAS KILLED. CAR WILL BE GOING IN NEXT TUESDAY TO DEALER FOR HOPEFULLY CORRECTION OF THIS PROBLEM. *TR
