The best 3-bike carrier I recommend for your 2014 Chevrolet Traverse is the ThuleOutWay, part # TH56BV.

This bike carrier holds the bikes securely at 3 points with the anti-sway cradles. The OutWay also uses only 2 retractable cables to secure the carrier to the back of your Traverse instead of the 4-6 straps used on most other carriers. The One-Key lock system helps deter theft of the bikes and the carrier. This bike rack also folds flat for easy storage when not in use. I have attached a link to a product review video for this carrier you can check out.

If you are planning on carrying bikes with alternative frames like kids bikes or women's bikes I recommend using an adapter bar like part # 64005. This attaches between the seat post and the handlebar stem and allows the bike to be carried more level in the carrier while providing additional ground clearance. I have attached a product review video for this adapter bar.
