NHTSA Complaint #11204900 — 2013 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE

WHILE DRIVING ON A BUSY HIGHWAY AND WITHOUT WARNING MY 2013 TRAVERSE STARTED TO LOOSE POWER. THIS WAS VERY DANGEROUS AND QUITE SCARY AS I ALMOST GOT REAR ENDED BY CARS BEHIND ME AS MY VEHICLE ALMOST SLOWED DOWN TO A COMPLETE STOP ON THE HIGHWAY. THE 'TRACTION CONTROL IS OFF' LLIGHT CAME ON - FOLLOWED BY THE 'STABILITRAK', 'LOSS OF ENGINE POWER' AND 'SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL'. I MADE IT TO AN HWY EXIT AT ABOUT 5 MPH. THANKFULLY, I WAS ABLE TO FIND A SAFE PLACE ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD BEFORE MY CAR ENGINE STARTED TO SHAKE AND THEN CUT OFF. I HAD TO GET A TOW TO THE CHEVY DEALERSHIP SERVICE. THIS SUVHAS HAD A NUMBER OF ISSUES FROM THE TIME I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. THE FIRST ISSUE IS LOSS OF POWER DURING ACCELERATION, WHICH THE DEALERSHIP HAS CONTINUED TO DISMISS. I HAVE ALSO HAD ISSUES WITH THE AIR BAGS, TRANSMISSION, SEATBELTS AND POWER STEERING. THE POWER STEERING AND TRANSMISSION WERE RECENTLY 'REPAIRED' THIS PAST YEAR, BUT I HAVE CONTINUED TO HAVE ISSUES WITH BOTH OF THOSE SYSTEMS.
