The transmission failed in the middle of me driving the check engine light popped on and started jerking and accelerating and slowing down in the middle of traffic. It is available for inspection. Stopping randomly and jerking as soon as the light popped on. I am about to be out of thousands of dollars for a $40000 car that I'm still paying on always kept maintenance up and just had an $180 inspection at dealership prior to this no mention of a transmission failure prior. Everything came back good so this is frustrating several other 2020 traverses have been recalled due to transmission I am not sure how mine isn't included for same year. It conveniently happened right when it wad out of warranty.
The transmission went out, when going out it causes the vehicle to jerk while at a high speed of 60mph and then after the jerking it stops in the highest gear almost causing a wreck and this all suddenly happens on an interstate.
Alternator failing and needing to be replaced on a 2020 Chevy Traverse with only 33,000 miles. Seems to be a common issue with several Traverse and it's a costly repair as it's past warranty.
My vehicle along with many other make a stuttering feeling when accelerating at low rate of speed. This can lead to a bad transmission and causing the vehicle to cut off making a hazard.

In the past 3 years I have received 2 check engine lights giving a code of P0420, meaning the catalyst system efficiency is below threshold. Chevy replaced my catalytic converter in April of 2022-?? now a year and a half later they need to replace parts again. A catalytic converter is an important exhaust and emission component that is designed to burn up the toxic exhaust gases that come from the engine-?? carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons to be exact. I just found out today after taking it in for a second time that the first replacement of the catalytic converter was a defect on the manufacturers part. Every time I go in I have to pay the diagnostic cost and I feel as though I was sold a defective car. Catalytic converters are supposed to last the cars lifetime in some cases.
This vehicle has completely lost power and stalled on the freeway twice. The first time, I was with my wife and children when it happened on the highway. The vehicle stalled in the far right lane of traffic and it wouldn't restart. We had to risk our lives and push the vehicle off the freeway and onto the shoulder while other vehicles raced by. We are fortunate that we did not die or become seriously injured. The second time the vehicle stalled on the highway, my wife was crossing the highway and the vehicle once again lost all power and shut-off. She is fortunate that she was not killed in a T-bone collision. The first time, there was a dash warning stating to SERVICE ESC. The second time, there was no warning lights or dash illumination of a problem beforehand. The vehicle has been taken to the Chevrolet dealership twice. They ran a diagnostic and stated the starter was pulling too many amps which caused the vehicles fuse block to blow, resulting in total failure of all vehicle components. Total repair cost for first repair was approximately 1,000 dollars. We are awaiting the service advisors diagnostic for this second incident. The first repair is covered under a 2 year unlimited mile warranty so hopefully when they replace the starter and fuse block this time, they will also find the root cause of the problem. I feel as if our lives and well-being are in jeopardy since the first incident and we no longer feel safe driving this vehicle which has stalled twice during highway conditions. I am confident that we will no longer be GM consumers due to these life risking incidents.
Transmission shudders when warmed up. After driving Transmission will shudder pulling hills. It becomes worse and more noticeable the longer it is driven and when hot out. Numerous times after driving for a few hundred miles and then stopping, the vehicle will shudder trying to take off. Has been back to the dealership 4 times now for the same issue. First time was told it needed a torque converter, when taking it in to have the torque convertor changed a TSB was located advising to change the transmission fluid instead (January of 2022). After about 1000 miles issue has came back. Dealership is unable to duplicate it due to it being worse on hot days and unable to drive for long periods of times. There have been numerous complaints after researching online about this with the Chevy traverse. This vehicle has almost left me sitting in the middle of intersections due to Shuddering.
When shifting from drive to reverse, or park to reverse, the transmission will not engage right away. The vehicle will roll forward or backwards until the transmission engages into reverse. This will happen when the vehicle is in motion at very low speeds (1-2 mph) and also while stationary.
