I just bought a 2011 traverse and i was wondering does the turn signal turn off automatically, or is that a new feature they put on them that you have to manually turn them off. Help please.

 

Welcome to the forum..
I can't speak for the Traverse but on my Tahoe if I activate the turn signal but not fully to a click it will blink 3-5 times... if I click it to a hard stop it will stay on until you drive with it on for a couple of miles and the information center will chime in and tell you the blinker is on....

 

So in2Pro. on your tahoe your blinker will not turn off by say turning the wheel the opposite direction of what the blinker is blinking towards. I was just comparing this to my Chevy silverado and it will turn off by its self if you turn the wheel back the opposite direction of the blinker.

The turn signal should turn off automatically after making a complete turn. If the turn signal level is briefly pressed and released, the turn signal flashes three times. The lever returns to its starting position when it is released.

If the turn signal is not shutting off automatically, you may want to consider contacting your dealer for an inspection.

If you have any additional questions, please feel free to contact me.
