What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2012 Chevrolet Traverse
| 2012 Chevrolet Traverse Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2012 | 4dr SUV 281-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Although the rear captain seats are quite comfortable, I do not like how they roll forward. There is a track in the floor in which the rear seats fold and slide up behind the front seats. All I notice when in the back seat is how extremely difficult it is to clean out the mud and grit and salt (I live in Canada, we use salt on our roads) that gets left behind in the track from passenger footwear. see full Chevrolet Traverse review |

The headrest position is horrible for long trips. Felt like my head was being pushed forward. see full Chevrolet Traverse review |

Have the EXL model with heated, power drivers seat. Passenger seat heat is not heated on the back portion due to some airbag issue. Comfortable front seats. Good rear leg room. see full Honda Accord review |

The seats were very comfortable. Lots of lateral support and for the long drive to the west valley of Phoenix to see my parents, the seats did not let me down. see full Honda Accord review |
