What owners wrote
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 chevrolet traverse. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the contact stated that there was an abnormal electrical smoke odor. The contact stated that the check engine warning lights and other warning lights were illuminated. The contact became nauseous but no medical attention was required.
While driving, the dash of the traverse will flicker on and off. When this happens, the headunit will restart and flash a couple times before staying on. The back up camera will also turn on randomly, while in motion. When the dash flickers to off, I am not able to use my blinker or see my mileage.
