NHTSA Complaint #11058577 — 2011 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL RECALL I WAS DRIVING ALONG AT 60 MPH THE INTERSTATE WHEN MY ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON, THE FIRST WARNING SAID 'TRACTION CONTROL TURNED OFF', IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWED BY 'SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL', THEN IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWED BY ANOTHER WARNING LIGHT "SERVICE STABILITRACK", THEN IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWED BY ANOTHER WARNING "REDUCED ENGINE POWER". THE VEHICLE WENT FROM 60 MPH IMMEDIATELY DOWN TO 20 MPH. REMIND YOU THAT WE WERE ON THE INTERSTATE, IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC. THIS IMMEDIATELY TURNED INTO A VERY SERIOUS SITUATION. WE ARE VERY FORTUNATE THAT WE WERE NOT REAR ENDED, AND CAUSE HUGE PILE UP. WE MANAGED TO MAKE IT OVER TO THE SHOULDER, WE ARE STILL NOT OUT OF DANGER AS SEMI TRUCKS, CARS, ARE DRIVING BY US AT VERY HIGH SPEEDS IN LOW LIGHT CONDITIONS. OUR CAR WAS BEING BLOWN SIDE TO SIDE FROM THE WIND FORCE FROM THESE VEHICLES. MY 2 YEAR OLD SON WAS IN THE BACK SEAT AND WE ARE VERY LUCKY WE WERE NOT INVOLVED IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. WE TOOK OUR VEHICLE IN TO GET IT LOOKED AT, THE MECHANIC COULD NOT DETERMINE THE ISSUE AS THE PROBLEM IS ONLY SPORADIC. NOW A MONTH LATER THE VEHICLE GIVES US THESE WARNINGS AND HAS THESE SAME ISSUES DAILY. WE CAN NOT FIND A RESOLUTION. PLEASE RECALL THIS VEHICLE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED AND SO WE DRIVE IN COMFORT THAT WE WILL MAKE IT TO OUR DESTINATION AND SAFELY.
