Chevy Traverse safety reviews have returned satisfactory results in the USA. The 2023 Chevrolet Traverse has been reviewed by the NHTSA and attained an overall five-star rating in AWD guise and four stars with FWD. At the IIHS, the 2023 model scored a Good rating for most crash tests that were evaluated, but with a Marginal rating for the updated moderate overlap front test and Poor for the headlights, is ineligible for a Top Safety Pick rating.
All Traverse models come with Chevy Safety Assist by default. This suite comprises automatic emergency braking, front pedestrian braking, lane-keep assist with lane-departure warning, a following-distance indicator, forward-collision alert, and IntelliBeam automatic high beam control. This is all in addition to a rearview camera and seven airbags, including curtain airbags for all rows and a driver's inboard seat-mounted side-impact airbag.
Most trims have lane-change alert with side blind zone alert, and upper trims have adaptive cruise control. Rear cross-traffic alert, rear parking sensors, rear pedestrian alert, a safety alert seat, and an HD surround-view camera system are available.

With a Quality & Reliability rating of 83 out of 100 from J.D. Power, the 2023 Chevrolet Traverse scores higher than competitors in this area. These are consumer-verified Chevrolet Traverse reviews so they do point to a positive ownership experience. While the NHTSA has reported two recalls of the 2023 Traverse, for a faulty transmission that may result in a loss of drive and for a possible separation of a half shaft, also resulting in a loss of drive. The 2022 model was recalled for one problem: Curtain airbags that may deploy incorrectly.
Every Traverse SUV comes with a three-year/36,000-mile limited warranty, a five-year/60,000-mile powertrain/drivetrain warranty, and roadside assistance for five years or 60,000 miles. A single scheduled maintenance visit is covered within the first year.
