I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE EXPRESSWAY GOING 70 MILES AN HOUR AND MY CAR ALL OF A SUDDEN WENT INTO SAFE MODE AND DROPPED TO 10 MILES AN HOUR IN A MATTER OF SECONDS. I CAME VERY CLOSE TO BEING REAR ENDED BY THE CAR BEHIND ME AND I HAD TO SWERVE OFF THE ROAD INTO LOOSE GRAVEL AND ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF MY CAR. I TOOK THE CAR TO HANK GRAFF CHEVROLET WHERE I PURCHASED IT AND THEY SAID THE THROTTLE BODY HAD WENT OUT ALONG WITH THE RACK AND PINION. I WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY $2500.00. I CALLED THE DETROIT ZONE OFFICE AND [XXX] TOLD ME THAT EVERYTHING WOULD BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY EXCEPT FOR THE ALIGNMENT. I THEN RECEIVED A CALL FROM THE SERVICE WRITER A FEW DAYS LATER AND WAS TOLD THAT GM WOULD NOT COVER IT. I TALKED TO THE ZONE OFFICE AGAIN AND ASKED WHY WOULDN'T THIS BE COVERED, IT IS A SAFETY ITEM AND OTHER TRAVERSES HAVE HAD RECALLS FOR THE THROTTLE BODY. I WAS TOLD SORRY MINE WAS NOT ONE OF THEM AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY. I FEEL THAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THIS AS IT CAN CAUSE SOME MAJOR ACCIDENTS OR EVEN DEATHS IF THIS HAPPENS TO SOMEONE ELSE. I WAS VERY LUCKY THAT THIS DID NOT RESULT IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. MY CAR HAS ONLY 69000 MILES ON IT, WHY WOULD THESE PARTS FAIL AT SUCH A LOW MILEAGE. THE CAR HAS NEVER BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENTS AND THERE HAS NEVER BEEN ANY PREVIOUS REPAIRS DONE ON THIS VEHICLE. THANK YOU INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

IT HAS TO DO WITH POWER TO THE ENGINE BEING REDUCED. IT HAS HAPPENED TO ME THREE TIMES. EACH TIME, I RECEIVED THREE ERROR MESSAGES ("TRACTION CONTROL OFF", "SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL", "SERVICE STABILITRAK"), EACH TIME POWER REDUCED TO MY ENGINE, AND EACH TIME I PAID SUBSTANTIAL SUMS TO THE DEALER TO HAVE IT FIXED, BUT EACH TIME IT HAPPENED AGAIN. THE FIRST TIME I PAID DEALER #1 ABOUT $150 (IF I RECALL CORRECTLY) TO HAVE THEM CLEAN CARBON FROM A SENSOR ON THE THROTTLE BODY (WHICH, COINCIDENTALLY, I'VE HAD SEVERAL PROBLEMS CAUSED BY "CARBON", ACCORDING TO THE DEALER #1). THE SECOND TIME, SAME THING, BUT PAID ONLY ABOUT $45 (TO DEALER #2 BECAUSE I WAS OUT OF TOWN). THE THIRD TIME, I PAID $600 FOR A COMPLETELY NEW THROTTLE BODY, INCLUDING ALL OF SUCH SENSORS, FROM DEALER #1. I AM NOT CONFIDENT THAT IT IS ANY SAFER NOW THAN IT WAS BEFORE, SINCE THE TRACK RECORD IS SO POOR (NEITHER OF THE PRIOR FIXES SOLVED THE PROBLEM). TWO OF THE THREE TIMES (TIME #1 IN JANUARY 2014, AND JUST NOW FOR #3 IN JANUARY 2015), I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED, AND FORTUNATELY THE CARS BEHIND ME WERE ABLE TO SWERVE AND AVOID REAR-ENDING ME AT THE LAST MINUTE. *TR

TRACTION CONTROL TURNED OFF, STABILITRAK TRAK TURNED OFF AND THEN IT SAID THEY NEEDED SERVICE, IMMEDIATELY AFTER IT THEN STARTED DOWN SHIFTING AND QUICKLY SLOWING ITSELF DOWN. IT IS A REAL HAZARD ON ICY ROADS AND ON THE INTERSTATE IN TRAFFIC WHEN THE VEHICLE QUICKLY SLOWS ITSELF DOWN. MANY POSTS ON THE INTERNET WITH THIS PROBLEM REPEATEDLY OCCURRING WITH MULTIPLE REPAIR ATTEMPTS AT DEALERSHIPS. I'M STARTING ON MY 2ND TRIP TO THE DEALERSHIP. THIS IS A DEFINITE SAFETY ISSUE WHEN THE CAR TAKES CONTROL AND SLOWS ITSELF DOWN. BY SHUTTING OFF THE CAR IT WILL RESET THE SYSTEM AND THEN IT WILL WORK PROPERLY FOR A WHILE.

WIFE WAS ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN THE STABILITRAK TURNED OFF AND THE ENGINE WENT INTO A SAFE MODE DROPPING HER SPEED INSTANTLY. LUCKILY, SHE WAS IN TRAFFIC AND NOT GOING FULL HIGHWAY SPEED OR ELSE SHE WOULD HAVE BEEN A MAJOR ACCIDENT HURTING MANY PEOPLE INVOLVED. THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE 2010 TRAVERSE FOR THIS SAME ISSUE, AND EVEN THOUGH THERE ARE PLENTY OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE ON THE 2011 (HTTP://FORUMS.EDMUNDS.COM/DISCUSSION/14979/CHEVROLET/TRAVERSE/CHEVY-TRAVERSE-STABILITRAK-TRACTION-CONTROL-PROBLEMS), NO RECALLS HAVE BEEN ISSUED. DO THERE HAVE TO BE DEATHS INVOLVED WITH THIS ISSUE BEFORE CHEVY DECIDES FIX THIS ISSUE? THE COMPLAINTS ALSO INCLUDE THE DEALERSHIP ATTEMPTING A BUNCH OF ATTEMPTED FIXES, WITH SOME OF THEM CORRECTING THE PROBLEM AND SOME NOT (THROTTLE BODY BEING ONE). IN THIS STATE, THIS VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE, AND ITS NOT DUE TO CUSTOMER ABUSE OR HIGH MILEAGE PARTS. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY CHEVY AND CORRECTED ASAP. WE HAVE ALSO HAD TO HAVE THE SEAT BELT FIXED UNDER RECALL, THE A/C UNIT UNDER WARRANTY, AND RECENTLY RECEIVED A NOTICE THAT THE POWER STEERING UNIT HAS A RECALL BUT NOT TO BRING IT TO THE DEALERSHIP UNTIL IT FAILS. I EXPECT A CALL FROM CHEVY IN ORDER TO GET THIS ISSUES FIXED AT THEIR COST. I WILL CONTINUE TO POST ON ALL FORUMS, BLOGS, SOCIAL MEDIA, ETC UNTIL THIS IS GIVEN THE PROPER ATTENTION. *TR

EA20002 · Outboard Front Seat Belt Anchor Cable Failure

Opened Aug 31, 2020 · Closed Aug 30, 2024

Status: closed (inferred from source dates) · Seat Belts; Seat Belts:front; Seat Belts:front:anchorage

On August 31, 2020, the Office of Defects Investigations (ODI) opened Engineering Analysis (EA) EA20002, as an upgrade of Recall Query (RQ) RQ19003. This investigation, related to recall 14V-266, was opened to investigate instances of detachment of the flexible steel seat belt anchor cable attached to the outboard side of the front seats in vehicles manufactured by General Motors (GM). The subject vehicles included model year (MY) 2009 through 2014 GMC Acadia, Buick Enclave, and Chevrolet Traverse SUVs as well as MY 2009 through 2010 Saturn Outlook SUVs. These vehicles were previously repaired for this defect under recall 14V-266. The subject vehicle population is approximately 1.3 million vehicles. Special Coverage N192219480, issued in June 2019, addressed the subject defect in vehicles that previously received the recall remedy repair for subject recall 14V-266. The Special Coverage allows for component replacement for 12 years or 180,000 miles from the initial sale date, whichever comes first. Special Coverage N192219480 instructed service technicians to inspect the driver’s seat belt anchor cable for any damage to the protective sleeve and if damage was observed, the cable was replaced with a new sleeve as well as a new closeout piece that relocated the cable to mitigate the subject condition. In view of the Special Coverage conducted by General Motors, the high detectability of the subject failure, and the low rate of occurrence, this Engineering Analysis is closed. The closing of this investigation does not constitute a finding by NHTSA that a safety-related defect does not exist. The Agency reserves the right to take additional action if warranted by future circumstances. To review the ODI reports cited in the Closing Resume ODI Report Identification Number document, go to NHTSA.gov. Please see the attached document “EA20-002 Detailed Closing Summary” for more a detailed closing resume summary.

RQ19003 · Seat Belt Anchor Cable Failure

Opened May 28, 2019 · Closed Aug 31, 2020

Status: closed (inferred from source dates) · Seat Belts:front; Seat Belts:front:anchorage; Seat Belts:pretensioner

On May 19, 2014, General Motors LLC (GM) notified the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) that it would conduct Safety Recall 14V266 to address fatigue and separation of the flexible steel cable that connects the front outboard seat belts to the seat-mounted belt pre-tensioner in 1.4 million model year (MY) 2009-2010 Saturn Outlook, 2009-2014 Buick Enclave, GMC Acadia and Chevrolet Traverse (Lambda Platform) vehicles.The remedy was to inspect for signs of damage and replace pre-tensioner anchor cables as needed. Re-work was conducted to relocate the pre-tensioner anchor cable out of the occupant entry path. ODI has subsequently received four (4) Vehicle Owners Questionnaires (VOQ) reporting anchor cable separations with no apparent warning in covered vehicles after the Recall 14V266 remedy had been applied.ODI opened RQ19-003 to assess the effectiveness of the actions GM took in Recall 14V266 and review the full warranty and complaint data related to seat belt anchor cable separations and replacements. ODI continues to receive occasional cable failure complaints both for the subject vehicles and other GM models and model years that have also been previously recalled addressing this condition.Although the cable separation complaint rate is very low, over the past three years ODI has received two (2) additional VOQ?s citing belt cable separations for Lambda platform vehicles outside the scope of recall 14V266, (11217092, 11118075) and complaints for other GM models covered in a number of similar Safety Recalls:* 15V269, 2011-12 Chevrolet Malibu (11181115, 11288168); * 16V209, 2014-15 Silverado 1500, Sierra 1500 (11254364, 10935183, 10953851, 11025376, 11282043, 11288701, 11309884); and * 16V518 2014-16 Caprice Police Pursuit, SS (10905644, 10990669, 11340893).ODI's review of GM's data confirms the low potential failure rate for the vehicles covered by recall 14V266. However, ODI believes that complainants may not recognize accumulating cable fatigue damage from the visual cues available in routine vehicle use.ODI is upgrading RQ19-003 to an Engineering Analysis to more closely assess seat belt conditions and strength levels in the field. This work will include the collection of seat belt samples from a wider range of recalled and peer vehicles for detailed analysis and testing.The ODI reports (VOQs) associated with this RQ19-003 can be viewed at NHTSA.gov under the following reference numbers: 11144704, 11076704, 11185619, 11151922, 11164011, 10967518, 11113486, 11115648
