Air bag on right side is off, Vehicle front dash has the air bag needs to be serviced. this started as of the 1st month of purchased, took to dealership and they could not duplicated the problem. The air bag would go off and off from time to time, but by the time I had my appointment at the dealership it would go back on. Now I am out of warranty and the light is always red that the air bag on the right side is off. I noticed that when we would close the back of the vehicle after placing groceries the light would go off and when closing again it would go off. Now it is always on indicating that the right air bag is not on.
I was slowly backing out of my garage when all of a sudden my 2015 Traverse accelerated to 40-50 miles per hour to my horror. I felt like I was in the indy 500. The car backed into a tree in my front yard, then at the same high speed lifted off the ground and raced forward and crashed into 2 parked cars in my back yard. Had the 2 parked cars not stopped me my neighbors feel I would have gone into the lake in my back yard. My air bag did not go off, yet the one in the empty parked car did go off. All 3 vehicles were a total loss.
I was backing out of my garage when all of a sudden the car started going about 50mph and hit a tree in my yard, then the front end lifted off the ground and the car raced forward and crashed into my friend's car. They both hit my pickup truck also. All 3 vehicles are a total loss. From the neighbors who observed this, it's a miracle I wasn't badly injured. Also I have a tear in my achilles tendon on right foot so in no way could I have mashed on accelerator

I opened my power lift gate using my key fab. After putting items in the back, I pushed the close button located on the lift gate. I thought I had left my keys laying inside with the items I had just placed in the back of the vehicle. Knowing that the sensors would read that my arm would block the door from closing, I could retrieve my keys. As it continued to close, I realized that it was not recognizing my arm. As I tried to pull my arm away from the door, it caught my thumb and crushed it. It remained closed in the back hatch until help arrived to open it with the keys. I went to my dr and received xrays. I fractured my thumb and am currently receiving physical therapy treatment. I am constantly in pain. When I contacted General Motors, I was brushed off.
Seat-belts: When buckle it, the hard part injures the passenger. Driver seat: Pellets came out of the rail of the seat. Driver seat headrest: When driving, if a person holds the headrest and push it, it moves, making the driver move the head. The headrest do not have a lock. All these issues happen when driving in the street, highway. This is unsafe condition for the driver as well for the passengers. I hope this issues are resolved before an accident occur.
The liftgate is closing autonomously, without any of the buttons on the liftgate, key fob, or console being pushed. It has done this several times now, starting this morning, Feb 14, 2018. Twice it almost hit someone on the head when placing items into or removing items from the rear storage area. The vehicle is parked and stationary.
