It's a type of car problem that’s not hard to notice. 2009 Chevrolet Traverse transmission problems could include shifting delays, jumping or grinding during acceleration, a feeling of shakiness, or whistling noises or a burning smell coming from beneath the hood. Let Chevrolet Traverse transmission problems linger and you could see your fuel economy decrease or find that you can't drive your Traverse at all.

2009 Chevrolet Traverse Questions & Answers

  • What happens if I "ride" my Chevrolet's brakes? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Chevrolet Traverse? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small it is. Defying your Traverse towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Traverse is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my Traverse's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2009 Traverse’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your Chevrolet, so check with your technician first. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Chevrolet Traverse? Yes. Chevrolet Traverse transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues. Worn or damaged seals, a loose or damaged transmission pan, a cracked transmission housing, faulty transmission cooler lines, or an overfilled transmission could cause transmission fluid leaks.
  • Who can fix my  Chevrolet Traverse transmission leak? When your Traverse transmission is acting up, Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to help. Book an appointment today for transmission system diagnostics and repairs.
  • Can I still drive my Chevrolet Traverse if it has a transmission fluid leak? It’s not advisable to drive your Traverse if it’s leaking transmission fluid. Your transmission system needs transmission fluid to function properly, and a leak can lead to significant problems, such as overheating or reduced performance. You might even experience transmission failure.
