Extend your warranty

I really like the comfort and versatility of this vehicle. Reliability is poor and what should be easy to fix is unreasonably complicated. A power steering pump bills out at 9 hrs labor. Headlight lamps are replaced by going through the wheel wells. I had 10 years of extended warranty and wish I had extended another 2 years.

Have enjoyed owning this Traverse. Ready for another before body change and less room.

13 weeks 5650 miles and counting. 21.2 mpg. Very Happy with vehicle. Only bad thing is 2nd row seats need a redesign for seatbelts. maybe a little wider seats. 7 passenger model.
