    When putting gas in my 2017 traverse, when i go to crank it, it's takes a while to start and then when it does start, it idles really high. Sometimes if i'm at a complete stop, the engine just cuts off. Tonight when i was driving to the store with my family, the engine cuts off while driving in the middle of the road. This is really scary because i live in atlanta, ga and often take the highway and i'm afraid the…

    I have a 2017 traverse, bought it with just a few thousand miles on it back in 2017. I started having problems the day after i bought it. The car would die almost every day. Finally got that issue fixed. A few months later the washer fluid stopped working. I took it in to have it looked at and they said it had a hole in it. I had it replaced. A few months later my engine starts making a really loud noise when…

    My engine, while the car was stationary, made a loud cranking noise. It sounded like large metal pieces grinding together. The entire car would then rumble and the engine light would come on. After sitting for a while it would stop. The rumbling would happen almost every time my vehicle is at a standstill. It would also do a jerking motion while driving on the road. The gm repair mechanics said it was a small valve.…

    This has happened 3 times while driving down the interstate at 70mph. While driving all of a sudden my dash starts flashing traction control off & then flashes service stabilitytrac & my engine loses power and starts jerking kind of like your are running out of gas. This lasts until you stop and turn off the car for about 5 min then restart it. But it keeps happening when i get back on the interstate.

    While driving my 2017 chevrolet traverse at interstate speeds, the vehicle, without warning, shut down. When i say shut down, i mean shut off completely. This was a complete loss of all power to the car. The engine shut off, the lights (internal and external) shut off, there was no power steering, the brakes where difficult to push down, etc. As i am now coasting down the interstate with no power to the car i put it…
