My 2014 Chevy Traverse has been having this issue for months now. I will be driving and my service stabilitrak, traction control off, check engine light will light up, and engine power reduced will pop up. I can not go over 20 mph. At times the engine will become very stally, jerky, my steering wheel and brakes will be very hard to use. These are very random and non patterned I will have to safely pull over rather it be on a back road or a highway wherever it happens turn the engine off for 5-20 minutes and it will eventually clear everything but the check engine light; which will clear within that day or the next until the next time it happens. It has also cause my key to lock up in the ignition. This is very unsafe and scary. This is my family car and will eventually cause an accident and hurt myself, my kids, or someone else. If you google the issue there are tons of forums, websites, blogs that have the same issue with this car. I have spent numerous hours investigating the issue, lots of money replacing parts as recommended or by the check engine light and it continues to do this. GM is going to have a lawsuit on their hands when someone gets seriously hurt over this issue because they are not doing anything about it.

While driving the car I received a airbag warning and speedometer went to zero. Immediately after my entire dashboard went dark. Car continued to drive with working headlights. It appeared to reset several times and then would work fine for a while. Before the same problem would come back. This time without the air bag warning. Happened in snowy wet conditions. It was multiple times on a city street, and multiple times on a highway.
It keeps saying service airbags the first time it did this two weeks after purchase we took it back to dealer in sikeston and the replace connector under seat which cost us 800 dollars now for months later light is back on and with this light on the airbags are disabled which is a big safety problem for my family the issue needs be fixed because of safety reasons also a costly repair bill car has only 70 thousand miles what can I do to get this issue resolved with my vehicle it happened it September and now in December both times you start the vehicle it comes on an will not go off without costly repair that should not be charge for safety issues with vehicle

Multiple times the car has just lost power. The dash goes crazy with lights and warnings. Chevy tells me there is nothing they can do because there isn't a code and they can't replicate the problem. Twice I have been driving and this has happened and once when I pulled into a parking spot. Now it does shift really. It revs the rpms, jerks, sputters, and puts while trying to turn or accelerate. Its so scary because its the only vehicle we have to fit us and our newborn. I hate Chevy refuses to acknowledge an issue
I was driving this vehicle and instantly all power was cut off. When I came to a stop I put the vehicle in park and tried to start only to have failed to start quite a few times. After a minute of sitting, the car started again. The car stalled a few more times after on the way home. The dash said stabilitrak needs to be serviced and the engine power was reduced. This could really cause an accident! this problem seem to happen when I was slowing down or coming to a stop.
My vehicle will first stall and slow down with 'engine power reduced' and something about the traction control and stability track going across the dash right before my vehicle stops on me. This happens frequently at any moment and now I am unable to start it back up. I was told by pep boys that it is an electrical problem, with codes reading a shortage in the fuse box. I checked the web for any recalls and saw that others were having the same issues, yet no recalls. This is dangerous because my vehicle stops at any moment in the middle of a drive, even on the highway. Now I am without reliable transportation in my 2014 Traverse. I love my vehicle, but GM needs to fix this issue.
The contact owns a 2014 Chevrolet Traverse. While driving 35 mph, the vehicle stalled and the traction control warning indicator illuminated. The vehicle was restarted after an hour. The contact mentioned that the failure previously occurred and the battery was replaced; however, the failure was persistent. The vehicle was taken to family auto mart (1900 Aurora rd, melbourne, fl 32935, (321) 242-0328 )where the contact was informed that the vehicle was bought as is and that the electronic control computer failed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 130,000.
Driving the kids to school and the vehicle just cut off on the interstate and the traction control turned off. I was able to catch the exit and make it to the side. It would not start. It finally started and I was able to go two miles where it cut off again, holding up morning school and work traffic on the two lane road. There was no shoulder to pull off to. I just read where there was an issue with a short in the electrical system that causes the car to just shut off. I put my VIN number in the recall database to see what to do and it tells me my car is not on the recall list. This is dangerous and I fear for my family knowing these types of issues exist.
While driving my Traverse it stalled going 50 mph. After restarting the vehicle the engine was at low power and would only go 20 miles per hour. The dash read low engine power, stabilitrak and traction control issues. Drove the vehicle at 20 mph in a 55 mph zone for about 5 miles with the flashers on. Took the vehicle to todd wenzel in davison Michigan. Upon restarting to go to the dealership the vehicle drove as normal with the engine light on. The dealership coded it.( see attached) we did do the work the dealership recommended. This was the fourth time we have had similar issues. The past three times just the engine light came on with no stalling or speed issues and the code was ignition switch fuse. We had the fuse replaced each time. All within 8-9 months. Engine issues came up as possible recall but not with my VIN #.
The contact called on behalf of the owner of a 2014 Chevrolet Traverse. The vehicle stalled while driving the contact was almost left stranded the contact stated that there were several electrical issues with the vehicle while driving at approximately 60-65 mph, without warning the vehicle stalled. The driver was able to restart and drive the vehicle to the residence at a reduced speed. The vehicle was taken to jim ellis Chevrolet, 5900 peachtree blvd, atlanta, ga 30341, (770) 457-8211, to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that there was moisture in the fuse box which caused an electrical short. The driver was informed that the fuse box needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The vehicle was not included in NHTSA campaign number: 14V614000 (electrical system). The failure was intermittent. The manufacturer was contacted and informed of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was unknown.
I have been driving and my driver side headlight will randomly shut off and sometimes come back on. My driver side control for the passenger side window has stopped working, the passenger side can only be rolled down by the passenger side control. Front passenger side tire keeps deflating with for no reason there is nothing in the tire to make a hole but the tire keeps losing pressure. For the tire it is anytime if the car is moving or if it is stopped. The headlight will turn off and on if I hit any bumps, hit the headlight cover by hand, and sometimes it will turn off and on without any bumps at all. The window control just does not work at all now and it has started to effect the rear passenger side as well.
Engine power comes up low power and I just brought a new battery which I know that not it. The car will throttle and then I can only go up to 20 miles per an hour and it's hard to steer. I will have to stop the car for twenty minutes and it will start back up with the engine light on. This is very dangerous to take on the highway or even drive especially I have kids in my car. What can I do"?"
Mi auto SE apaga tanto en carretera como en la ciudad esto empez hace un mes, despus de apagarse SE ilumina la seal de antibloqueo Y la luz del motor, baja la potencia Y tengo que aparcar Y esperar para volverlo a prender SE textea Y sale un codigo generico de Chevrolet P1682, esto esta pasando seguidamente poniendo en riesgo la vida de mi familia Y la MA propia.
Check engine light intermittently comes on and off. Car misfired and stalled while idling (parked). Took to mechanic and check engine code noted to bevp1682. Chevy recall 14187 and Chevy recall 14007 are similar to these symptoms but currently our VIN in not included despite a similar situation. Fuel guage also reads inaccurately.
I'll be accelerating and my car will just jerk into gear as if it's having trouble shifting. The vehicle will also stall out when driving on the highway or in town, lose power and ding and the 'service stabilitrack' alert comes on the dash. I have driven it straight to the dealership on several occasions and the vehicle doesn't throw a code and they can never duplicate the problem. After doing some research, I've learned that I'm not the only one with this problem and it been going on for some time. This is my first Chevy and I will never purchase another. I love everything about this vehicle except for the issues I've had not being resolved. I will go back to Toyota after this. Very disappointing. I've owned the vehicle for 4 years and this error has occurred over 30 times. Unbelievable. The car will also jerk into gear when the vehicle slows for a curve or a vehicle in front of me is slowing and when I accelerate after passing the car jerks into gear.
A life and safety issue! with no warning the vehicle will suddenly shut off. It does not matter if you're moving on the freeway or parked, it is very intermittent and only happened three times in the last 6 to 8 weeks. Two different mechanics said error it's code P1682 is the fault but it will not duplicate the symptoms. I contacted Chevy corporate and they knowledge other vehicles this year have a recall but claim mice VIN number is not affected and will do nothing. Hey fuel vehicle is in safe and do not want my family in it until I am certain it will not suddenly shut off while they are in motion.
In the course of the last year my Chevy Traverse has lost power on the freeway. Our traction control light has come on several times powering down the engine and placing us, me & my family in a very harmful situation. We have taken it to our mechanics they have diagnosed it and replaced several relays. That did not remedy the problem placing me on the freeway once again down in lax with my child in the car powering down & traction light coming on and pulling over and placing us in yet another dangerous situation. I have read the motor vehicle code for California title 49 section 301. This malfunction definitely poses an unreasonable risk to the public. Also, noted on NHTSA, national highway transportation safety administration website notes there is a recall on electrical system was reported.
I was entering the on-ramp going East and my vehicle completely stopped. I was going around 25-30 mph and I had my kids in the car. My computer forced my brakes and I was unable to drive the vehicle. My SUV literally made a full stop while driving at 25-30 mph with my kids in the car and no brake lights ignited. The check engine light and the traction control light came on. They eventually turned off. This happened one other time. I was driving on a residental street and the vehicle stopped again. My husband whom was driving the car said the car just stopped in the middle of the intersection. He tried pressing the traction control button because the check engine light and the traction control light came on and the brakes were forced again and nothing. Imagine going 25mph and stopping abruptly without brake lights for other cars to see. This time I did research and I saw that other 2014 Chevy Traverses were recalled for the chassis module (recall number 14V614000). I saw youtube videos and I checked several consumer the complaint websites and I literally saw over 10 other complaints about the same issue this month! I also put a reader in my vehicle and the two codes that come up is P16aa & P1682. One is for the electronic module system in which the chassis (pertaining to the recall) is listed under). I called the dealer and they said that the recall was active for 2014 Chevy Traverses..... but not mine! I am completely disgusted. These vehicles will kill you - literally and they know it, and they refuse to do anything about it! now I'm paying a car note and I can't even drive it - for the safety of my family, others, and myself. Shame on them - again this is happening to other people! this is a urgent request for help!
