Factory maintenance schedule OEM · verified

Normal service, condensed from the factory interval matrix.

Under the factory schedule, replace the engine oil and filter every 7,500 mi; spark plugs every 60,000 mi; coolant at 150,000 mi. The big-interval services (at 150,000 mi for coolant, and the transmission fluid) are the ones owners most often skip — on a lower-mileage example, assume the original fluids are still in it and check them first.

Reliability & federal safety record

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.

The 2024 Chevrolet Traverse sits toward the lower end of the recent trend, with 123 complaints and zero recalls, a sharp decline from the peak of 448 complaints in 2009 and the 212 complaints in 2020. Recalls have fluctuated but remain low in recent years, dropping to one in 2022 and none in 2024, suggesting fewer systemic safety issues. The most frequent complaint categories in 2024—service brakes (21), engine (11), and power train (11)—mirror the broader pattern of mechanical concerns that have persisted across the generation, though the total volume has eased. Crash complaints remain nonexistent and fire complaints are minimal, indicating strong safety performance for this model year. Given the reduced complaint count, absence of recalls, and low safety incident reports, 2024 appears to be a solid year to consider purchasing a used Traverse.
