Where is the 2009 Chevy Traverse’s battery located?

I can’t find my car’s battery under the hood, and I lost the owner’s manual ages ago, so I can’t check the location myself. Where is the 2009 Chevy Traverse’s battery located?

The 2009 Chevy Traverse battery location is beneath the passenger’s seat.
While it may seem unusual, many manufacturers prefer to place car batteries in alternate locations—such as under the passenger or rear seats, or in the trunk—to free up space under the hood. If your car has a heavier battery, an alternate location can also help better distribute vehicle weight.
To get to the battery in your 2009 Traverse, follow these easy steps:
  • Slide the passenger seat completely forward
  • Remove any floor mats from the back row
  • Lift up the plastic grates on the floor
  • Loosen and remove the screws that hold the battery’s protective covering in place using a D20 Philips screwdriver
Once you remove the protective covering, you should have direct access to your battery!
