Driving this car is enjoyable

I went from a small car to this car and it was easy to ajust. It has plenty of room and I love the bucket seats in the back.

Searching for 3rd Row & NOT a minivan kinda dad

We searched for several months to find a car that would be just the right fit for our growing family. A van was too much money and most other SUVs just didn't have the space our family needed. We purchased a Traverse after reading others reviews on overall comfort, reliability and value for the price you pay. If you need an extra row, this car might just be a great fit for your family. Very comfortable on our drive to Georgia and we loved how the backseat folds down for added space.

Constant problems with AC

If the AC issues and electrical issues could be fixed without constantly needing repairs this vehicle would be very economical and comfortable

Worst vehicle I have ever own

This vehicle has been in my garage for over a year. Over $8,000 in repairs are needed. No longer under warranty.

Great so far!

Bought this vehicle used from Klaben Motors on cars.com, great vehicle and experience with both so far. I love the luxurious feel of this vehicle! However, it is and LTZ not sure if the LT and LS would feel the same, but this one is loaded with everthing but the kitchen sink. I really like the leather and heated and cooled seats, however my wife has taken over the vehicle as she liked it more than me.

2009 Chevy traverse

I bought my truck used 5 years ago. It was wonderful great room for the kids. Nice on gas. Since 2013 I have now had to replace the timing chain three times. In 2015 it snapped n broke cables off my engine. Now after $4500. Replacing timing chain has gone again. Trucks are made to b driving. Extended warranty was purchased and gm refused to help. So sad. This experience has pushted me away from buying another GM vehicle.
