@Jay7878My car started with this issue. So I replaced ignition and spark plugs. Issue solved.
For you
Before you starting below steps
First check your CV Axle and wheel balancing + wheel alignment.

1. Clean o2 sensors and MAF sensors.
2. Very important - clean your throttle body valve.
3. If still no improvements check fuel injectors and fuel pump.
4. still no improvement check your engine and gear box.
5. At last check your ECM and BCM.

@Jay7878Well this case please check your wheel balancing plus alignment.
Let me know pls.
I had this problem when my car reached 120kmtr/hour speed, the whole car shakes. I came to know that my wheelscare not balanced. I fixed like this.

@Jay7878Pls note for your info. Check the coils too.... Not only the plugs...
Important thing is 90% of vibration occurs from your wheels and its rotationl parts like axle.

Cuts out when accelerating

Chevrolet Traverse 2012 Chevy Traverse v6 151000 miles
It cuts out when accelerating, especially around the time that it "changes gears" around 30-45 mph..it doesnt do it when you accelerate quickly (drive it hard) but when you accelerate slowly is when it does it. It will cut out for a few seconds then gain power/momentum again. We changed spark plugs and ignition coils, still doing it although not as bad as it had been. Could it be something related to throttle body or fuel pump/filter? Ive owned nissans all my life and the parts for this car are so much more expensive so really looking for some help please! Thanks!
