Absolutely, the transmission problems seem to be a recurring nightmare. Has anyone found effective solutions?

In addition to transmission issues, the engine performance can be lackluster at times. I’ve noticed a decrease in power during acceleration.

Yes, I feel the same, especially when merging onto highways. It’s a bit concerning.

Also, many owners mention common wear and tear, like suspension issues and brake performance. It seems they don’t hold up over time.

Absolutely! Those brakes can feel spongy too early on. Anyone else experiencing this?

It’s frustrating because these problems can be costly. Has anyone had success with warranty claims for these issues?

I’ve heard Chevy is pretty strict with warranties, but I got some repairs covered! Persistence pays off.

I wonder if these problems are due to design flaws or just bad luck for some owners. Overall, it feels hit or miss.

That’s an interesting point! It leaves us questioning quality control at the factory.

At least we can laugh about it, right? Driving a Traverse feels like a roller coaster ride at times – all the ups and downs!

I’ve been experiencing random resets on the infotainment system in my 2019 Traverse. It’s so annoying, especially when I’m in the middle of a navigation route!

Don’t even get me started on the battery issues! I had to jumpstart mine twice already. Is it just me or are these batteries just not holding up?

You’re not alone! A dealer mentioned that some batteries are prone to early failure. It’s a hassle!

I have similar concerns with the advanced driver assistance features. The lane-keeping assist has been acting up—it’s like it doesn’t even recognize the lanes sometimes! Anyone else faced this?

Absolutely! Mine seems overzealous and sometimes tries to swerve me into the other lane. It’s a bit unnerving!

I’m starting to feel like these tech features are more trouble than they’re worth. Can’t we just go back to basic driving without all this interference?

I get that! But, if they could work properly, they would genuinely enhance safety and convenience.

Has anyone tried resetting the infotainment system? I heard it can help with some of the glitches. Worth a shot, maybe.
