2026 Traverse RS Custom Exhaust

I recently purchased a 2026 Chevy Traverse RS. Everything is good, but the Exhaust is just too quiet. I've been researching custom mufflers to change the sound. Borla, Flowmaster, valvetronics, etc. Has anybody seen the results? Any videos of a 2024, 2025, or 2026 Traverse with aftermarket exhaust?

2017 Traverse Help

I have a 2017 Chevy Traverse that jerks/shakes during shifting. Typically between 35-45 mph. Already replaced the torque converter and all the fluid is fresh. Reset transmission adaptation. Relearned throttle body. If I go super slow it will shift without issues. What else could be causing it to have issues? Engine and transmission mounts looked fine. Checked them out while dropping the tranny.

Getting Frustrated

I'm getting frustrated with my 2025 Traverse RS. Carplay still doesn't show up on the right side view of the dash screen most times. I always have to shut the car off, open the door and then start it again to get the screen to load. Took it in for this once and it was supposed to be fixed. There is an intermittent problem when I rapidly speed up to pass and AWD kicked out, check engine light comes on and I get a Service Transmission notice. Only after shutting the car off, can I get it back into AWD. Oddly enough, this doesn't generate an error code so the dealership hasn't been able to trace or recreate. Now, my TPMS is telling me that I have low pressure, even though the tire pressure is correct. All this and I've only got 11000 miles on the car. Seriously thinking about trading it in.

New 2026 Traverse

Just bought this for my better half. Traverse RS. She loves it and it matches my Chevy High Country I bought a couple of weeks ago.

OTD pricing RS

I'm looking to buy an RS in the next few days and have been shopping around to find the best out the door price. If anyone has bought one recently, what did you pay? So far I have gotten 59k, 58k, and 57.3 but they came down to 56.3k. I was hoping to get it for 55k but I'm feeling that may be tough. Do y know if it matters but I'm in Florida.

I feel like $56k for a Chevy is a lot. I know everyone has issues with it as it will probably break on me and probably won't last me 8-10 years. It's not like it is a Honda or Toyota. (I'd get one of those but they don't have what I'm specifically looking in a car.) I think I just need a reality check that vehicles actually cost that much these days.

I'm going to get the extended warranty. I read to get it from an online dealership and it will be much less. Has anyone done that?

Accidentally turning the headlights switch knob when exiting car

As I exit the vehicle, my left knee would occasionally rub against the headlights switch knob, turning it right to the "on" position.

So far I've managed to catch this on time before the lights would drain the battery.

I'm wondering if anyone had already found a solution to this problem, which I assume is common.

Any ideas will be appreciated...


Edit:

I now saw someone made this this 3D-printed protector, which gives me an idea to prepare something similar for the Chevy.

Battery dying

2025 Traverse purchased in April 2025 has a little over 10,000 miles on it. Twice this year the battery has randomly died and I’ve had to jump. Nothing left on and nothing done differently. Anyone else had this issue?

Android auto

Im a fairly new Traverse owner and im wondering if anyone else has had issues getting their android auto connected? I know its a very small problem to have but still annoying lol. I had it connected the first few days but now it wont connect or let me even add a device. Im wondering if I hit something on accident trying to acclimate myself to the new settings. Thanks in advance if anyone can help!

Key Card Not Working

My 2026’s key card all of a sudden doesn’t work. The card is not damaged and it has always worked before. Nothing else is wrong with the vehicle. Has anybody else had this issue, and figured out a way to fix it? Thanks.

Front lip on a traverse??

Hello, I own a 2023 midnight traverse..

never seen a front lip on a traverse before but today a white traverse had a front lip on it and it looked aggressive! It was not the new z71 either, year was like mine with a aftermarket lip. Does anyone else have a front lip on the traverse? Sounds tacky but it was surprising nice.

2014 vs 2016 Traverse LTZ - $2,200 difference

Hello, does anybody have any input? I’m looking to buy one of the two vehicles below:

2014 Chevy Traverse LTZ with 85,000 miles. This is from a private seller.

2016 Chevy Traverse LTZ with 52,000 miles. This is from a dealership and comes with a 90 day warranty.

The 2016 is $2,200 more than the 2014. Is the extra $2,200 worth the 2 model year newer, 33k less miles, and 90 day warranty?

Thank you!!

Chirping from under hood

My brand new 2026 Chevy traverse Z 71 with only 300 miles has started chirping when it is idling. I took it by the dealer and they said GM is working on a solution and showed me a GM tag on this issue from nine months ago. What should I do? This car is brand new. I didn’t wanna buy a chirping car.

Questions about 2026 Traverse

I am receiving a 2026 Traverse LT AWD as a company car. No additional packages. I have a few questions for you existing owners.

  1. Does this come standard with a receiver hitch? You cannot add one in the configurator on the Chevy website but this seems like an odd vehicle to come with one standard. Not planning on towing but maybe added a luggage carrier.

  2. Does anyone actually use the auto hold feature?

  3. How flat does the 3 row fold?

Thank you all in advance.
