2015 Chevrolet Traverse owner complaints (15)

• FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

  Code : P0496 Evap omission system high purge flow code Not clear what has caused issue but car is never over filled with fuel When car is fueled and turned back on sputters and struggles to run properly It often needs to be turned off and turned back on Have been told this is a common issue with the make and model of the car

• ENGINE

  Our vehicle has a hole/leak in the pipe before the catalytic converter. This is a known problem in other years of the Traverse, and the warranty was increased substantially to fix an obvious and proven issue. GM needs to repair our 2015 Chevrolet Traverse at no cost to us before the fumes cause harm to anyone in the cabin.

• STEERING,SUSPENSION,UNKNOWN OR OTHER

  While operating the vehicle, the steering column became detached, creating an immediate and severe safety hazard. Upon inspection, the column appeared to be improperly secured using hose clamps instead of proper manufacturer components.

  Transmission issues

• ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,AIR BAGS,LANE DEPARTURE

  The 2015 Chevy Traverse LTZ that I own is presenting with the same problems as many of its body style and year. The water intrusion has caused wiring to corrode in the side detection system & the drivers door wiring harness is presenting with open circuits. The LH side object module is throwing code U0233:00. They tested circuits at RH module. Found water intrusion in module, & corrosion on terminals & harness. Due to nature of location of modules, they recommend replacing LH & RH modules & harness. DTC B0085:05 current. Tested circuits & found open circuit internal to drivers door harness. Recommend replacing harness. The air bag code threw 2 days after I bought the veh 04/01/25, I attempted to contact the dealership I bought the vehicle from, AutoCredit in Hayden, ID, who admitted to the dangerous code being present, and that they were going to do nothing about it. Some time late April, my veh threw the code for side detection. On 05/27/25 I took my veh into Taylor & Sons Chevy in Ponderay, who dx my codes, and advised the above was needed. They also confirmed the fact that when that airbag code is present, that none of my airbags would deploy at time of impact if a collision occurred. This is a huge safety risk as much of my daily commute is on the hwy, and the influx of drivers in my area not familiar with the roads is increasing daily. My side detection system is a safety hazard as well due to the Traverse’s blind spots. Thank you for your time. I did not know what to do until I contacted Chevy directly who advised me to contact the NHTSA.

• SERVICE BRAKES

  Every so often, when I brake, just before the car should come to a complete stop, the engine seems to rev and the car will keep moving forward a few feet. Chevy dealership had 3 different service technicians drive the car to try to recreate the problem, but since it is a rare occurrence, they did not experience the issue. Googling the scenario returns many who say it may be a vacuum leak in the brake booster. Dealership said the brake booster is fine. Floor mat interference with the gas pedal has also been mentioned. I removed the floor mat, and I still have the issue. Dealership said the brakes themselves are fine, and the diagnostic tool returned no problem codes. They also searched for any recalls, but none were found. Any insight provided is appreciated.

• AIR BAGS,UNKNOWN OR OTHER

  During a routine maintenance appointment with my mechanic, the airbag warning light illuminated on the dashboard immediately following service. I brought the vehicle to a dealership for diagnosis and was informed that the issue is due to a manufacturer-issued recall affecting the airbag system. However, I was also told that no replacement parts are currently available and there is no estimated date for when the defective component can be replaced. This creates a serious safety risk, as the vehicle may now be operating with a disabled or malfunctioning airbag system, which could fail to deploy in the event of a collision. I am forced to drive a vehicle that has been acknowledged as unsafe by the manufacturer and dealer, without remedy or safe alternative provided. The dealer confirmed the recall and the unavailability of parts, but has offered no loaner vehicle, reimbursement, or temporary resolution. I am requesting that NHTSA intervene to ensure that: The manufacturer remedies the safety defect in a timely manner. Affected drivers are provided with safe alternative transportation if parts are delayed. Accountability measures are enforced if harm results from known but unresolved recalls. Component/System for inspection: Vehicle is available for inspection upon request. Warning lights/symptoms: The airbag indicator light turned on immediately after routine service. Dealer confirmed problem: Yes. Manufacturer informed: Indirectly, through dealer report. Police/Insurance involved: No.
