2015 Chevrolet Traverse Misfiring
We have a 2015 Chevrolet Traverse. In July, the
check engine light came on and was flashing, no
other issues. Dealer said it was misfiring, didn't
know why. Had us do some sort of maintenance
that cost around $150 and said if it happened again
it was a more serious issue.
Yesterday, we were driving on the highway and it
started shaking and bogging as if it wasn't getting
enough gas. The traction control light came on and
the check engine light was flashing. We were
worried it wasn't going to make it off the highway.
We happened to be in a construction zone with no
shoulder and had a newborn in and toddler in the
car. When we did get out, we noticed an odor. My
husband was able to drive it to dealer without issue.
Check engine light was off, but traction control light
was still on. They say cylinder 2 shows history of
misfire, but have no reason for it and thus have
nothing to fix, "bc they can't replicate the issue."
There's obviously something wrong with the car and
I don't feel comfortable driving my 2 young children
around. We're planning to take it to a different
mechanic this weekend and pay to have it looked at
to see if they come up with something different.
Advice? Feels like the dealer is putting us off to
prevent paying to fix it since it's still under warranty.
