2023 Chevrolet Traverse

-The Torque Converter Clutch (TCC) inside the automatic transmission is malfunctioning. It is experiencing a known defect outlined in GM Service Bulletin 23-NA-072. The vehicle is still being driven and is available for inspection upon request. -The transmission violently shudders and vibrates under light acceleration at low speeds (such as pulling out into traffic, merging, or navigating intersections). This violent, unexpected shaking creates a distraction, mimics the feeling of a blown tire or driving over a rumble strip, and causes hesitation in acceleration, which creates a safety hazard when merging with oncoming traffic. -The problem has been consistently reproduced by the owner. It matches the exact diagnostic criteria of GM’s active Technical Service Bulletin for TCC shudder. -No, it has not been inspected. - No check engine lights, warning lamps, or dashboard messages have appeared. The physical symptom is a severe mechanical shudder/vibration at low acceleration speeds, which first began appearing at approximately 75,000-80,000 -

The contact owns a 2023 Chevrolet Traverse. The contact stated that while driving below 30 MPH, the vehicle shuddered during acceleration. Prior to the failure, the catalytic converter was replaced. The contact scheduled an upcoming appointment at the dealer for diagnosis. The failure mileage was approximately 120,000.

My 2023 traverse rs experienced a loud grinding noise and sudden loss of power, almost like i slammed the brakes on while moving. I was in the middle of the road and i could have been rear ended. 10/12/26. This matches the GM recall N222389310 exactly but my vin is currently excluded. I am also experiencing a heavy vibration since 9/13/2026 similar to diving over rumble strips, it is intermittent and will not throw a code, its been to the GM dealership where new transmission fluid was put in, however started again, that did not solve the problem . GM does not have a recall for torque converter clutch they are aware and had put out a technical service bulletin TSB-23-NA-072.

The high-pressure fuel pump/fuel delivery system failed on my 2023 Chevrolet Traverse at approximately 47,480 miles. The vehicle generated diagnostic trouble code P0091. An authorized Chevrolet dealership inspected the vehicle and documented that the high-pressure fuel pump was “internally faulty” and required replacement. The vehicle and/or failed component may be available for inspection upon request, depending on whether the dealership retains the component after replacement. This failure presents a significant safety concern because the high-pressure fuel pump is responsible for maintaining proper fuel delivery to the engine. Failure of this system can result in hesitation, reduced engine performance, loss of power, stalling, or failure to start. A sudden loss of engine power while traveling at highway speeds, entering an intersection, or merging into traffic could increase the risk of a crash and endanger vehicle occupants and other motorists. The malfunction was confirmed by an authorized Chevrolet dealership through diagnostic testing. The dealership identified code P0091 and specifically documented the high-pressure fuel pump as internally faulty. To my knowledge, the vehicle has not been separately inspected by General Motors, law enforcement, an insurance company, or another independent investigator. Warning lights appeared intermittently prior to the diagnosis. The lights would illuminate and later turn off, despite the underlying malfunction still being present. I am concerned that a critical fuel-system component experienced an internal failure at only approximately 47,480 miles. I am requesting that NHTSA document and evaluate this failure to determine whether similar high-pressure fuel pump failures are occurring in other 2023 Chevrolet Traverse vehicles and whether this condition represents a potential vehicle safety defect.

Engine started consuming oil at around 25-30k miles. Now adding 3Q between the recommened oil change period. First realized this when driving on road trip and the engine oil low warning triggered. Driving at night on a interstate - had to pull off and find a safe place to check it. Could of been stranded with an engine failure in the middle of nowhere. Dealer confirms the issue, but GM says 1Q per 2000mi is "normal" in their world. Refuses to do anything when losing 1/2 your oil every oil change internal...

I own a 2023 Chevrolet Traverse. While driving, the vehicle suddenly began jerking very hard during acceleration and shifting. The Check Engine Light illuminated, and the vehicle became unsafe to drive because the transmission was not operating normally. I was concerned that the vehicle could suddenly lose power or fail while driving in traffic, increasing the risk of a crash. I took the vehicle to a Chevrolet dealership for diagnosis. The dealer found the transmission fluid was burned and diagnosed transmission trouble codes P0797 and P0700, indicating an internal transmission problem. Transmission .PDF Before the failure, I experienced harsh shifting and jerking that became progressively worse until the warning light came on. The problem has been confirmed by a Chevrolet dealership. The failed transmission is available for inspection upon request. I am submitting this complaint because I believe this transmission failed prematurely at approximately 68,933 miles. I am concerned that other owners may experience the same failure, creating a serious safety risk if the transmission loses power or fails while the vehicle is in motion.

While driving on the highway all of a sudden the vehicle started to vibrate and smell like metal burning . Merged off the highway to find my brakes where super hot. Pulled over for a little bit and drove home very slowly . Mechanic said the pads were locked on the rotors and completely destroyed both pads and rotors. Will be taking vehicle to chevy dealer because I dont feel safe driving my family .

Bad torque converter

I was driving down a neighborhood road and my car suddenly slammed to a stop, forcing my chest into the steering wheel and throwing my dog from the backseat into the back of the passenger seat. We had it towed to a local shop and they reported the solenoid inside the transmission has failed. This is a two year old vehicle with less than 100k miles on it. Luckily, I was in a neighborhood going less than 50 mph and did not have my children in the car with me. Other than some soreness, my dog and I are fine. This could have been a lot worse and caused more serious injuries. I would like this reviewed for a recall and contacted as to why there were no warnings from the vehicle prior to this failing. If I had been going any faster or driving on a busy road, this could have put the lives of my children at risk.

I own a 2023 Chevrolet Traverse RS, VIN [XXX]. This vehicle has repeated safety-related failures involving the engine/cooling system, fuel-injector/misfire system, steering-assist warning system, and electronic parking brake system. The vehicle is currently at AutoNation Chevrolet West Austin, dropped off on XXX, and is available for inspection. Soon after delivery, the vehicle began losing coolant and overheating. This was not isolated. Before the engine was finally replaced, there were at least four documented coolant/overheating-related dealer visits or repair notes: XXX. The problem repeated again on XXX, becoming the fifth coolant/overheating-related visit and resulting in GM/dealer-authorized engine replacement after internal coolant-related findings. Dealer records show low/empty coolant reservoir, overheating, fan-running symptoms, almost one gallon of coolant added, no external leak found, coolant dye added, GM TAC involvement, and internal coolant findings. After engine replacement, the vehicle continued to fail. In February 2026, it displayed check-engine light and “Steering Assist Reduced / Power Steering Reduced.” The dealer confirmed misfire and replaced cylinder 1 fuel injector. In April/May 2026, the vehicle displayed a service parking brake warning; the dealer documented left rear parking brake actuator high current. Now, on XXX, the vehicle is again at the dealer for blinking check-engine light, and the dealer advised the code shows another engine misfire. My family’s safety is at risk. Repeated overheating, engine replacement, steering-assist warning, parking brake warning, and recurring misfire create unsafe drivability risk, especially on highways, merging, intersections, or long trips. I no longer feel safe operating this vehicle INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

The contact owns a 2023 Chevrolet Traverse. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, there was an abnormally loud sound coming from underneath the vehicle while depressing the accelerator pedal to accelerate. No warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a local independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed with a hole in the exhaust system causing the acceleration failure. The vehicle was repaired out of pocket. The local dealer was contacted; however, the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired due to the waiting period suggested. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 44,000.

Infotainment system broke, black screen, no ability to use back up or other cameras, or see navigation etc.

To make a very long story short, I was having major software issues with my vehicle. I had the car "blackout" lights screens and everything turn off then when it powered on i would have service lights on for my brakes. I also had my reverse camera go out a few times and my lane assistant light on dash say its not working. All to find out i had a faulty rear control module. Upon replacement i learned this EXACT rear control module is the same one used in other GM vehicles noted in several recalls but the part itself has never been directly recalled. So now I have the same exact part in my vehicle again which is bound to fail again at some point. My vehicle is only 3 years old and has done this with children in the car. I let GM know numerous times and they said since the part is replaced its fine. But I know this exact part is not safe. If you look up the model number on the rear control module you will see how many times it is noted in service bulletins and is main contributor to these issues. Please recall the 2023 chevy traverse. I dont want this part just "updated" it needs redesigned.
