NHTSA Complaint #10760629 — 2010 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE

ME & MY FAMILY WERE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, DOING 65 MPH, & SUDDENLY THE CHIME IN MY VEHICLE GOES OFF, & IN THE DISPLAY WINDOW IT READS SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL, SERVICE STABILITRAK & PARK ASSIST OFF. ALSO THE ENGINE LIGHT & I BELIEVE THE STABILITRAK LIGHT COME ON. THEN THE VEHICLE JUST SLOWS DOWN & WHEN I TRY TO PUSH THE GAS TO GO, IT WILL NOT GO OVER 20 MPH. I PUT MY HAZARD LIGHTS ON & LUCKILY I WAS JUST A FEW MINUTES FROM HOME. THE NEXT DAY I TAKE MY VEHICLE BACK TO GREG MAY HONDA WHERE I PURCHASED IT, THEY PUT IT ON THAT MACHINE & THEY SAID I WOULD HAVE TO TAKE IT TO A CHEVY DEALERSHIP. THAT SAME DAY I TAKE IT & THEY TELL ME IT'S THE THROTTLE BODY. SO I DRIVE MY VEHICLE HOME & TRY TO COME UP WITH THE MONEY TO MAKE THE REPAIR & I TAKE MY VEHICLE TO MY PERSONNEL MECHANIC ON FEB 27, 2015, THEY REPLACE THE THROTTLE BODY FOR $521.79 (I DO HAVE RECEIPT). 3 MONTHS LATER ON MAY 23, 2015 THE SAME PROBLEM HAPPENED AGAIN WHILE I WAS OUT OF TOWN. 3 MONTHS AFTER THAT ON AUG 7, 2015 IT DID IT. AND AGAIN ON SEPT 1, 2015. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE USED ON NOV 29, 2014, I ONLY HAD IT 3 MONTHS WHEN IT BEGAN TO MESS UP ON ME. EACH TIME IT HAPPENED I AM EITHER ON A BUSY CITY STREET OR ON THE HIGHWAY. I HAVE 5 CHILDREN IN MY VEHICLE & THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS FOR MY FAMILY.
