NHTSA Complaint #11698062 — 2024 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE

I had my upper radiator hose leaking coolant after only owning this brand new vehicle about a year and half. Has less then 20,000 miles on it. I was able to get it into a Chevy dealer and they confirmed the leak. Seems the original part was defective. Was told I could take it home and drive it until the part came in(no eta on that) but to monitor the levels of coolant. Within two days I had a huge puddle of coolant in my driveway and had to bring it back to the dealer immediately. Thankfully I had coolant on hand and was able to refill the reservoir to make it to the dealer. This is a big concern because this is my wife’s car that she uses primarily to transport our two young children around. Thankfully she didn’t get stranded somewhere.
