Oct 19, 2022

The 2015 Chevrolet Traverse lasts around 250,000 miles with only some air conditioning and power steering issues. At $13,100 to $17,975, it’s a good value for a large SUV that’s built to carry a family.

The gas mileage is good. The Traverse is very spacious.
I love my car. It rides very smooth. It's very spacious. It looks very chic. There is nothing I don't like about my car.

It tends to look small on the outside but is much roomier on the inside so don't let that fool you.
The car both drives and rides beautifully. It has plenty of seating for our family and our children's friends. Good gas mileage and comfortable ride for road trips. The interior of a family car but cute enough outside to not feel like a boring mom car. One of the best cars I've ever owned.

Family SUV, better than a van!
My vehicle is versatile and reliable. You can fold down one row of seats or two rows of seats to haul stuff. Its is very roomy. Hold 7 people. The back sunroof is a huge bonus, especially on road trips. The traverse is very comfortable. It gets decent gas mileage. We have never had any problems with it. The sound system is excellent.

Perfect car for growing families
The traverse is such a reliable family car. It fits all three of my kids and their car seats. The seats easily go down in the back for added trunk space. Drives smooth and controls are easy to navigate. Very comfortable ride.

Lots of repair bills at less then 60,000miles
My traverse has less then 60,000 miles and lots of repair expense. Within the last year I had to replace motor mounts. Cost was over $800, brake lights stop working. Cost $200. Air bag light came on which was a recall item. In-order to fix the air bag light had to pay $250 for another part which wasn't covered under the recall. Now there is an electrical short in the counsel which drains the battery.(Two batteries within 3 months). The cost to repair is $1200. In addition the front passenager seat is very uncomfortable for road trips.
accountCircle Elizabeth T
So many issues already I hope it doesn't stay like this!
I have spent thousands of dollars already on this vehicle and it is not that old. The starter has went out, the air conditioner clutch went out I had to replace the battery. I hate this car I have had it 2 years and spent so much money I am over it. I hate to see how much more this car will cost me.
accountCircle Tracy A
Great spacious car, wish it was more reliable for the amount we're paying for it
Transmission broke just over 50,000 miles. Overheating problems and bad struts. We only use the vehicle to get to work and take kids to school. Pros about it is that it's spacious, has decent trunk space considering 3 rows. All the electronics are nice as well. Isn't great in gas.
accountCircle Diana S
Traverse Travesty In summary, I do not recommend buying a Chevy, Traverse.
I purchased my vehicle last year, and have not been happy with it. For starters, the seat belt didn't always latch properly. It took several tries before it would lock. Eventually it just stopped working altogether and I had to have it replaced. The features in the car are not user friendly. Just trying to figure out how to use them has been difficult. The buttons that you use to find a new music station are little silver raised slits that you push, but they often don't work until you've pushed them several times. These same buttons are used to show the odometer, trip, and vehicle information such as tire pressure. If you push one time too many because of the frustration of the buttons not working, but then they suddenly do work, you go right past what you needed and have to go through it all over again. The manual that shows the features and how to use them doesn't match what my interior features look like even though the year on the manual is the same year as my car. The only thing I do like about it is when I'm on an incline it does not roll backward when I lift my foot from the brake to the accelerator.
accountCircle Alexis R
Very good car reliable and trustworthy car.
Really good car have had issues with the cruise control turning off the tires keep going flat but other than that it is a really good reliable car would highly recommend this car for a family as long as you make sure the cruise control is checked first.
accountCircle Polly P
It's nice because of the size of the vehicle and I have kids
When my headlights went out..I had to pay $345.78 just to change the front headlights. Because on that Chevy traverse in order to change the lights out you have to take the whole front bumper off to perform the labor work... That cost me a lot of time and money just for a headlight that was only $12 for two
accountCircle Lauren C
It is great on gas mileage. And is so easy to maneuver especially in tight areas.
The acceleration is inconsistent. The brakes are not that great. The steering wheel does not adjust much for a larger person. There are blind spots especially driver side. The back row passenger crew seats do not recline much at all. And the back row is very tight with leg room.
accountCircle Lyn M
The traverse is a great for road trips. I prefer a smaller vehicle.
Good driving vehicle. We bought it because it has 7 seats; however it is too large for me to park. It has backup camera which is wonderful. It is quiet and easy to drive on long road trips. It does not get the best gas mileage. Overall, I would recommend it for a family vehicle.

What Do Critics Say About the Chevy Traverse?

  • Consumer Reports says the Chevy Traverse is good for big families, with lower than average owner satisfaction scores.
  • Edmunds gives the Traverse a 4.4/5 praising the good suspension, but doesn’t like the loose steering.
  • Kelley Blue Book users rate the Chevy Traverse at 4.2/5, enjoying the decent passenger room, while owners don’t like the low towing capacity.

What Common Problems Does the 2015 Chevrolet Traverse Have?

Common problems found on the 2015 Chevy Traverse include A/C compressor issues, a loss of power while driving, as well as power steering pump failures. Overall, these problems are more similar to other full size SUVs with average repair costs as well.

Air conditioning compressor issues are a common complaint from owners at around 55,000 miles. The compressor wears out as the SUV gets older, and has to be replaced. Changing out the compressor is a fairly labor-intensive process, costing around $1,200.

A loss of electrical power while driving shows up on some Traverse models at around 95,000 miles. Owners report all of the lights flickering on and off at the dash while the SUV stalls. The main fuse box is a common source of the problem, which costs around $500 to replace.

Power steering pump failures are also mentioned by owners at around 50,000 miles. If you notice grinding noises while steering, or your steering feels heavier, it’s usually a sign of a problem with the pump. Replacing the power steering pump costs around $1,100 depending on local labor rates.

There are 4 minor recalls on the 2015 Chevy Traverse, which is better than other large SUVs. The recalls cover various air bag modules throughout the cabin, which are common on all used SUVs on the market.

How Long Will the 2015 Chevrolet Traverse Last?

A well cared for 2015 Chevy Traverse should last around 250,000 miles, which is around 50,000 miles shorter than the top-rated Toyota Sequoia. Regular annual maintenance costs are average for a large SUV, according to data from Repair Pal, at $554 per year.

Since nearly all used 2015 Traverse models will have over 100,000 miles buyers should be prepared to replace the drive belt idler pulley for $300, the alternator costing $750, along with the power seat control module, which costs around $400.

Entertainment technology is great in the 2015 Chevy Traverse with standard Bluetooth and a 6.5-inch touchscreen display with MyLink. Safety technology is also excellent with standard OnStar as well as a rearview camera. Optional safety features include blind spot monitoring, forward collision warning, as well as lane departure warning systems.

Is the 2015 Chevrolet Traverse a Good Value?

Yes, the 2015 Chevy Traverse is a decent value since it offers good reliability. Blue book prices range from $13,100 to $17,975, making it cheaper than a Chevy Tahoe or Ford Expedition. When new, the price range was $30,995 to $43,935. Depreciation is worse than average, losing about 15% of its current value per year.

VehicleHistory Image

What Are the Differences Between Years?

The first generation of the Traverse was introduced in 2009, and was replaced by the second generation in 2018.

2013: Minor exterior styling changes, better interior materials, as well as a new stereo system.

2014: Additional USB ports added, forward collision & lane departure warning added to the LTZ model.

2015: Siri Eyes Free voice control added.

2016: 4G LTE WiFi hotspot added, base LS model added.

2017: LTZ model renamed to Premier.

2018: Fully redesigned for the second generation with new engines, interior, exterior, and technology.

How Does the 2015 Chevy Traverse Compare to the Competition?

The Chevrolet Traverse is worse than other full size SUVs from 2016 since there are more problems, although it offers substantial reliability improvements from older years.

The Toyota Highlander is another SUV which costs about $4,000 more. Reliability ratings are better in the Toyota Highlander, while the Chevy Traverse has more room for passengers and cargo. We recommend the Toyota Highlander for most people since they last longer with lower ownership costs.

The Ford Explorer is a popular competitor, which costs roughly $1,000 more. There’s more technology available on the Ford Explorer, while the third row offers better room for passengers in the Chevy Traverse. We recommend the Ford Explorer, although both SUVs have similar ownership costs.

It is great for family trips if you need to be on the road for extended periods.
I have had issues replacing the battery. It is behind the seat which makes removal difficult. I have had several issues with the air conditioning. I have been told the blender motor needs to be replaced. It makes a clicking noise intermittently which is very annoying. I do like the versatility of the vehicle as it seats my family and in laws when I need to take them. It allows everyone to sit and have separation which comes in handy when you have three children who do not always get along.

I love the captain’s chairs in this vehicle. The body style is great and the amount of room this vehicle offers is fantastic. However, like most Chevy vehicles, there are issues. The electrical parts of this vehicle seem to go out quite often. For example, the motors for the windows go in and out. The passenger side window will not even roll down at this point. One of my tail lights is cracked from the inside. I feel that Chevy has a lot of electrical issues as this is not the first Chevy vehicle that I have had problems with.

Seat warmers, rear control ac and heat. Phone charger adapters from the front to the rear. Very spacious and third row seating.

My 2015 traverse has everything I needed in a SUV.
My traverse is very comfortable it has 3 rows of seats and is very spacious. The third row has enough leg room that my teenager can ride comfortably. When third seat is down there is plenty of storage in the back. When seats are up and in use there hardly any room in the back for storage. So you might want to fold seat down when grocery shopping. My traverse has 96,000 mile and my air conditioner went out recently and need to go to dealerships to be fix. I also am starting to burn oil. Other than them little problems it has been a good SUV for us. I would recommend it to people with large families.

Chevy traverse handles well in snow and rain.
Chevy traverse drives well. Seats are comfortable. Does have some road noise. This car performs well in snow and adverse road conditions. Navigation, satellite radio and heated seats are great options that increase comfort. The molding strips along the windows on 2 of 4 windows have come loose and need to be replaced. I have not had any major mechanical problems and the vehicle is reliable. The vehicle seats 7 comfortably. With the third row folded down there is ample cargo room. If third row is up there is adequate room for a cooler but I would like more cargo room with seats up.

Great family car, soccer moms wanted, if you need trunk small you won't find it here
No issues i love this car. I do wish that I have gotten the 7 passenger instead of the 8 passenger. I would recommend this car to everyone

It has been a very reliable car. No problems other than wear and tear.
Drives great. I love that my family fits comfortably. Any adults in the back seat is a tight fit. I love the way it looks.

The perfect big family car.
It fits a big family. It is nice that the back has their own ac and heat controls. I'drives smoothly. Gets decent gas mileage. Having the heated seats is so nice during the cold. Having the push button to open and close the trunk is awesome. It is nice not having to use a ton of muscle for the trunk.

What I love about my suv!! Family size, and accessories
My SUV is perfect in size, it has room for my 6 kids, and it's perfect to travel. I love my rear reverse screen, and the seat warmers. I wouldn't trade my SUV for anything.

The comfortability of the vehicle is remarkable.
This traverse is the perfect car for traveling, and the space is ideal for long drives. It is safe and secure. The gas mileage is excellent the inside is perfect and comfortable. The passenger seat is comfortable and convenient because it has the ideal space between the seats. The front of the car is easy to use; nothing is complicated when it comes to navigate the radio or the settings or change any tools.

Lots of space and easy to drive!
I love that it is an SUV, but is easy to drive. It gives me a lot of space, but doesn't feel like I'm driving around a huge vehicle. I like the look of my car inside and out.

Third row, handsfree bluetooth, homelink, and heated seats
I have not had any significant problems with my vehicle. I enjoy having a 3rd row that the children or adults can easily access.
