2013 Chevrolet Cruze 4 DR FWD

The contact owns a 2013 Chevrolet Cruze. The contact stated that while at a complete stop with her foot depressed on the brake pedal, the vehicle would intermittently lurch forward without warning. The contact stated that the parking brake was activated to stop the vehicle from inadvertently moving forward. The vehicle was not taken to be serviced or diagnosed. The manufacturer had been notified of the failure and informed her that there were no recalls on the vehicle. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 85,000.

Chevrolet has issued a recall on the Chevy Cruze for antifreeze that has been known to leak at the thermostat housing. My is doing that which is causing it to over heat. I contact them and they said my car don have that issue mean while I drive 2 blocks it starts to over heat.

Check-engine light comes on and stays; after repairs, it keeps flashing. "Traction control" message comes on and stays on. The air conditioning system keeps warning to be turned off, and heats up the car when not turned off. The care drives and dies while driving. The transmission is not consistent, takes much more time to accelerate. Breaks and fan replaced after a year of purchased and about 1,500 dollars have just been spent in repairs and the car still gives a check-engine light, shaking and about to die. Presently not in use. The safety issues for me and my family are high. I recently had to drive it with safety lights on and below 25 miles/hr to and from the mechanic. I have taken the car before two mechanics and it is still not resolved. The car is available for inspection upon your recall.

The dealership sold my family this vehicle that has been a total loss since 2018. My understanding on why it has a green title is because someone paid out of pocket to cover the repairs. It has also been in 2 other accidents in 2020. The dealership did not make us aware of it and have been avoiding my contact.

Car is leaking oil and coolant. They are mixing and running into the engine.thermostat housing needs replaced.

TSB # 16-NA-015 ENGINE STALL OR STUMBLE,IGNITION COIL WIRE FRETTING.I CAN NOT FIGURE OUT WHY THIS IS NOT A SAFETY RECALL.OTHER THAN G.M. NOT INTERESTED IN BEING RESPONSIBLE. MY CAR STALLED WHILE DRIVING AND I HAD NO BRAKES AND NO STEERING.IT DONT TAKE A LOT OF THINKING AS TO WHAT CAN AND WILL HAPPEN WITHOUT BRAKES AND STEERING.MY CAR WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE ABOVE ISSUE WAS CONFIRMED.THE TSB WAS ISSUED 1-21-2016 AND ALL 2011-2014 MAY BE AFFECTED.PLEASE ADVISE ME WITH A FOLLOW UP ON THIS MAJOR PROBLEM. THIS IS MY SECOND REPORT ON THIS WITH NO RESPONSE.THIS WONT GO AWAY BY IGNORING THE ISSUE.LETS TAKE CARE OF THIS BEFORE ACCIDENTS.

Loss of power when driving

Coolant keeps having leaks after going to dealership to replace it. It had the same problem and dealer said it’s not covered now have to pay 800 dollars for same issue 5 months later. Coolant system not working might blow engine. Happens randomly when driving to warning lights come up and a lot of smoke starts coming out of car.

There is a consistent plastic burning smell, usually when the AC or heater is on. I have replaced the AC unit, and this still happens. Smoke sometimes appears on the driver's side through the vents. I have taken the vehicle in a few times for this, and they can never find anything. The last repairs I had done replaced wires, pipes, and connectors.

The whole head shot off while driving. Now the car is making a farting noise when I accelerate or if u sit idle for longer than 15 mins. No oil leak but I’m using an additional $200 in oil between oil changes

IN REGARDS TO TSB # 16-NA-015 ENGINE STALL OR STUMBLE. IGNITION COIL WIRE FRETTING.THIS PROBLEM IS DANGEROUS AND CAN HAPPEN AT ANY GIVEN TIME WHILE DRIVING WITHOUT WARNING AND DTC CODES. (CHECK ENGINE LIGHT) . WHEN THE CARS STALL YOU HAVE NO POWER STEERING AND NO POWER BRAKES AND COULD AND WILL CAUSE AN ACCIDENT IF IT HAS`NT HAPPENED AS OF YET .RESULTING IN INJURY AND OR DEATH. WITH MINIMAL RESEARCH I HAVE FOUND THIS IS A KNOWN AND ONGOING GLOBAL ISSUE THAT G.M. HAS KNOWN ABOUT SINCE 1-21-2016.ALL THESE CARS NEED TO BE RECALLED AND REPAIRED PRIOR TO ANYBODY LOSING THERE LIFE.

When in reverse on brakes do not engage properly-no braking action.. This same issue was addressed by a recall of 2012 models but GM has not issued a recall for 2013 models even though online research shows this is a common problem.

THE PROBLEM I'M HAVING IS WHEN I HAVE MY HEAT TURNED ON I WILL GET A SMELL OF LIKE BURNT OIL COMING THROUGH MY AIR VENTS. I WAS TOLD IT WAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE CRANKSHAFT BUT THE LAST TIME I WAS TOLD IT WAS SOMETHING WITH THE VALVE COVER GASKET. I CAN SMELL IT MORE ONCE I HAVE COME TO A STOP AFTER DRIVING.

WHEN KEY LEFT IN IGNITION, CAR OFF, IT TRIES TO START ITSELF REPEATEDLY. SAW THIS HAS BEEN REPORTED BY OTHERS FOR YEARS BUT NO RECALL. IGNITION CYLINDER NEEDS TO BE REPLACED TO STOP SHORTS. WHY NO RECALL? CAR WAS PARKED, TURNED OFF.

MY VEHICLE STARTED LOSING PRESSURE UPON HAVING IT CHECKED I WAS INFORMED THAT THE TURBINE IN THE ENGINE WAS DEFECTIVE AND BLOWING OUT THE OLD FROM MY INJUN MY CAR IS RENDERED USELESS DUE TO THE FACT THAT THIS TURBINE WAS PART OF CHEVY'S RECALL IN MY CAR HAVING BEEN AT CHEVY DEALERSHIPS IT WAS NEVER ADDRESSED. I NEED MY CAR FIXED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE IT IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION.

AT RANDOM TIMES, MY STEREO WILL GO BLANK, NO SOUND, NO BLINKER SOUNDS, NOTHING. AT THE SAME TIME, THE SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL, SERVICE STABITRAX WILL START FLASHING ON AND OFF. MY POWER STEERING WILL CUT OFF AS WELL. THIS WILL HAPPEN A FEW TIMES WHILE DRIVING THEN IT WILL NOT HAPPEN AGAIN. THEN RANDOMLY ON A DIFFERENT DAY, IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN.

I HAVE A 2013 CHEVY CRUZE 1.4L TURBO. THE PAST MONTH OR SO WHEN I AM DRIVING ON AN INCLINE OR HILL IT LOSES POWER AND THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT AND STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT COMES ON AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FLASHES. ABOUT A WEEK AGO I WAS COMING HOME FROM CLASS AND MY CAR LOST POWER AND ALMOST GOT SMASHED BY A SEMI AND TODAY IT LOST POWER AND ALMOST GOT REAR ENDED. HAVE HAD SEVERAL MECHANICS LOOK AT IT AND THEY CAN FIND THE PROBLEM.

IT'S BEEN SITTING FOR AWHILE NOW. I'VE REPLACED THE ENGINE, THE BATTERY, THE ALTERNATOR, THE STARTER, THE THERMOSTAT AND THE TENSIONER BELT. ALL BRAND NEW AND IT'S STILL NOT STARTING UP . IT ACTS LIKE IT WANTS TO START OVER BUT DOESN'T, EVEN WITHOUT THE KEYS IN IGNITION, IF I HOOK UP SPARK PLUGS IT ACTS LIKE IT WANTS TO START EVEN WITHOUT THE KEYS IN IGNITION

I WAS DRIVING ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET AND NOTICED MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT APPEAR AND WENT AND GOT A CHECK ENGINE DIAGNOSIS DONE AND POPPED AS A CODE P2076 WHICH IS THE INTAKE MANIFOLD TUNING VALVE POSITION SENSOR/ SWITCH CIRCUIT RANGE/PERFORMANCE. WHICH ISN'T THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS CAME ON. WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT THE CAR FROM THE DEALERSHIP IT HAPPENED TWICE BEFORE AND WAS COVERED BY THE WARRANTY BUT NOW I'M SURPASSED THE WARRANTY AND JUST FEEL LIKE THIS SHOULDN'T BE AN ISSUE ONCE AGAIN.

HAS AN INTERNAL ENGINE AND COOLING PROBLEMS EXHAUST GAS ENTERING THE COOLING SYSTEM I BELIEVE HE KNEW ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND STILL SOLD ME THE CAR ANYWAY. I TOLD HIM THAT THE WATER IN THE TANK WAS BUBBLING AND HE SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THE CAR. AND NOW THE ENGINE GASKET IS BLOWN AND THE CAR IS OVERHEATING

CAR CONTINUALLY OVER HEATS AND NOW THE TURBO BAD

MY 20 YR OLD DAUGHTER BOUGHT THIS CAR IN MAY 2020. SHE HAD IT 1 WEEK AND ENDED UP BROKEN DOWN ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD THE INTERSTATE, 3-1/2 HRS AWAY AT SCHOOL BECAUSE THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER WENT OUT. 2 WEEKS AND A NEW CATALYTIC CONVERTER, I AM ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD BECAUSE SHE COULDN'T STAY AND WAIT FOR IT, AND WE WOULDN'T LET HER TAKE IT UNTIL WE KNEW IT WAS RIGHT. ANOTHER 4 WEEKS LATER, REPLACED THE MOTOR AND CATALYTIC CONVERTER AGAIN, AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES BACK ON WITHIN 2 WEEKS AND LEAVES ME STRANDED ON THE HIGHWAY ONCE AGAIN! THIS TIME THE READING SHOWED ONLY AN O2 SENSOR SO MY HUSBAND CHANGED IT. THE CAR RAN FINE FOR A WHILE, THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME BACK ON. NOT LONG AFTER THIS, THE STABILITRAK WARNING LIGHT ALSO CAME ON AND SO THERE ARE 13 ERROR CODES COMING UP! WE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN A CHEVROLET FAMILY, BUT NOT ANYMORE! THIS HAS RUINED US! AND WHEN/IF WE CAN GET IT RUNNING WELL ENOUGH TO GET RID OF IT, IT IS GONE! THE ERROR CODES ATTACHED ARE FROM JULY & SEPTEMBER 2020. I DIDN'T GET A PICTURE THE LAST COUPLE OF TIMES THAT MY HUSBAND CHECKED IT. GENERAL MOTORS THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS. AND THAT'S JUST THE ONES WHO ACTUALLY TAKE THE TIME TO HUNT THE NHTSA DOWN AND FILE A COMPLAINT. NOT EVERYONE WILL DO SO! I PERSONALLY KNOW OF AT LEAST ONE OTHER PERSON IN MY HOMETOWN (OF LESS THAN 20,000) THAT OWNS A 2013 CRUZE THAT IS HAVING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEMS! I KNOW WE ARE JUST LITTLE PEOPLE TO YOU. BUT THESE ARE OUR LIVES! IF WE COULD AFFORD TO DRIVE A HIGH-PRICED, TOP-OF-THE-LINE VEHICLE, TRUST ME, WE WOULD!

CAR HAS LEAKED OIL AND COOLANT SINCE I GOT IT. CONSTANTLY OVER HEATS. LOSS OF POWER. ENGINE REVS AND JUMPS. CONSTANT REPLACEMENTS NOTHING WORKS.

THE CAR AT RANDOM WILL HAVE A MESSAGE COME UP THAT SAYS AIRBAG SENSOR. THE CAR SHUTS DOWN ON YOU AND WILL NOT START UNTIL CAR IS PUT IN PARK, RAISE HOOD, THEN ROLL DOWN DRIVER WINDOW IN TRAFFIC. THIS SOMETIMES WORK FIRST TRY BUT NOT ALWAYS. THIS CAUSE A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. IF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS I COULD POTENTIALLY BE LEFT PARALYZED. SINCE I'VE HAD A CERVICAL FUSION

I HAVE HAD AN ISSUE WITH THE VALVE COVER GASKET NEEDING TO BE REPLACE DUE TO OIL LEAKAGE TWICE WITHIN A YEAR. I WILL START NOTICING BURT OIL SMELL ONLY ON THE INSIDE OF THE CAR THROUGH THE AIR VENTS. THERE HAVNT BEEN ANY LEAKAGE ON THE GROUND AS FAR AS I SEE. THIS CAN'T POSSIBLY BE NORMAL. I CURRENTLY HAVE TO PUT MY CAR IN THE SHOP FOR THIS ISSUE.

THE CAR HAS SOME KIND OF ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT GOES ON AND I TAKE THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER AND GET PROBLEMS FIXED, AND WITHIN A MONTH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AGAIN, AND THERE ARE NEW PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR. WHEN THOSE PROBLEMS GET FIXED, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AGAIN WITHIN A MONTH. THIS IS A CYCLE THAT KEEPS GOING. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AT DIFFERENT TIMES, USUALLY WHILE DRIVING. I BELIEVE THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM IS CAUSING CASCADING FAILURES IN DIFFERENT SYSTEMS.

VEHICLE LEAKS COOLANT FROM WATER PUMP AND THERMOSTAT

STARTING SMELLING A VERY STRONG SMELL EVERYTIME I WOULD TURN ON THE HEATER AND AIR. HAD THIS SMELL ONE TIME BEFORE AND COST ME RIGHT AT $700.00 DOLLARS TO FIX. NOW THIS IS GOING TO COST ME RIGHT AT $1500.00 DOLLARS TO FIX. THE SMELL IS MAKING ME SICK TO MY STOMACH. CAN'T BELEIVE THIS IS HAPPENING.

[XXX]. I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS OVERHEATING. I CHANGED THE HOSES, THERMOSTAT, THERM. HOUSING, 3 SENSORS, WATER PUMP, SPARK PLUGS, COOLANT. NOW MY CAR WILL NOT EVEN START. IT CRANKS BUT WILL NOT FIRE. WHAT CAN I DO. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

WHILE DRIVING TODAY, IT BEGAN TO RAIN, MY DRIVER SIDE WIPER WAS WORKING, THEN 3 MINS INTO IT BEING ON, IT STOPPED. CAR HAS ~87500K MILES. I ACCESSED THE WIPER ARM LINKAGE, AND IT HAD THE DRIVER ARM BUSHING HAD WORN OUT.

JUNE 2020 - CAR BEGAN POPPING UP WITH THE ALERT "A/C OFF DUE TO HIGH ENGINE TEMP" - UPON CHECKING THE CAR HAD COOLANT SO REPLACED THE THERMOSTAT. JULY 2020 THE ISSUE KEPT OCCURRING AND I BEGAN HAVING TO PUT COOLANT IN THE VEHICLE EVERY FEW DAYS. TOOK TO ANOTHER SHOP WHO SAID IT WAS LEAKING FROM A HOSE - REPLACED HOSES. AUG 2020 - ISSUE CONTINUED AND THEN STOPPED HOLDING WATER ALL TOGETHER - HAD TO REPLACE WATER PUMP, REZ, THERMOSTAT, AND VARIOUS BELTS/HOSES - DROVE THE CAR FOR THREE DAYS WHEN THE MESSAGE POPPED UP AGAIN. TOOK IT BACK TO THE SHOP AND WAS TOLD THAT (DESPITE IT BEING 1 OWNER CAR) "SOMEONE" HAD PUT STOP LEAK IN IT AND IT MADE THE THERMOSTAT STICK. THEY FLUSHED THE ENGINE AND REPLACED THE THERMOSTAT AGAIN AND THE CAR DROVE FOR 1 WEEK BEFORE THE ISSUE KEPT OCCURRING. THIS TIME IT STARTED HAVING TROUBLE CRANKING AND CAUSED A BLOWN HEAD GASKET. SO NOW AFTER 8 MONTHS AND $3,500 I HAVE REPLACED EVERYTHING THAT COULD POSSIBLY MAKE IT OVERHEAT/HAVE A COOLANT ISSUE AND HAD THE ENTIRE ENGINE REBUILT - HOPEFULLY THIS TIME IT FIXES THE ISSUE. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 68 MPH, THE DRIVER'S AND PASSENGER'S SIDE SIDE-CURTAIN AIR BAGS INADVERTENTLY DEPLOYED, WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INVOLVED IN A CRASH. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN BACK TO THE RESIDENCE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AMERICAN CHEVROLET (4742 MCHENRY AVE, MODESTO, CA 95356, 209-575-1606) TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS NO MERIT FOR A CLAIM FOR RESTITUTION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED BY EMAIL HOWEVER, NO ADDITIONAL ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 120,000.

WHILE DRIVING IN THE CITY STREET THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND STARTED FLASHING. THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON FOLLOWED BY A MESSAGE IN THE DASHBOARD STATING 'STABILITYTACK' WAS NOT WORKING. THE VEHICLE THEN BEGAN SHAKING AND WAS NOT ABLE TO SHIFT GEARS PROPERLY. THE RPM WAS HAVING TO REV HARDER THAN USUAL TO KEEP THE VEHICLE UP TO SPEED. I HAD TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE STREET AND TURN THE CAR OFF. NEITHER IDLING OR SHUTTING OF THE VEHICLE HELPED WITH THE PROBLEM.

THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD COOKS THE CYLINDER HEAD GASKET CAUSING OIL LEAKS AND TURBO FAILURE BEFORE 75,000 MILES. OVERWHELMING SMELL OF BURNT ANTIFREEZE COMING FROM VENTS DUE TO COOLANT LEAK RIGHT OF THE SHOWROOM FLOOR. RANKED LOWEST POSSIBLE RELIABILITY RATING 40 OF 40

RECALL: N202299080 THE CRACKS IN THE FAULTY PCV VALVE PREVENTED PROPER AIR INTAKE AND PRESSURIZATION TO AND FROM THE INTAKE ENGINE. BECAUSE THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN OPERATING UNDER THESE STRENUOUS IMPROPER CONDITIONS, THE TURBO HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO SPOOL PROPERLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS DESIGN AND HAS ALSO BECOME DEFECTIVE/IN NEED OF REPLACEMENT. FAULTY PRESSURIZATION DOES NOT ONLY AFFECT THE PCV VALVE, BUT THE COMPONENTS ON EITHER SIDE OF THE VALVE AND THEIR PROCESSES AS WELL. MY 2013 CHEVY CRUZE NOT ONLY STALLS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET, BUT DIES THERE AND IS A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD TO BOTH MY FAMILY AND THOSE WE SHARE THE ROAD WITH. THIS VEHICLE HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT OR HAD ANY OTHER COMPLICATIONS, EXCEPT FOR THIS FAULTY PCV VALVE. THE CONDITION HAS EXPOSED MY TURBO AND ENGINE TO IRREGULAR UNWARRANTED PROPULSION MECHANISMS. GM IS HOPING WE'RE IGNORANT ENOUGH TO COVER THOSE COSTS ON OUR OWN. THIS IS WRONG. THEIR FAULTY PART TRIGGERED A SERIES OF SAFETY HAZARDS AND COMPLICATIONS. THEY NEED TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE, WE CANNOT SIT BACK OR TURN A BLIND EYE IN THEIR DIRECTION. WE NEED TO STAND UP FOR EACH OTHER AND SPEAK OUT. THANK YOU FOR MAKING OUR SAFETY CONCERNS YOUR PRIORITY!

THE COOLANT IS LEAKING, MY ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET AND IT SAID MY ENGINE WAS HIGH IN TEMPERATURE.

TL* THE CONTACT CALLED ON BEHALF OF HER SON WHO OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE HER GRANDDAUGHTER WAS PARKING THE VEHICLE, WHEN SHE SAW SMOKE COMING FROM THE HOOD. THE CONTACT STATED THE DRIVER WAS NOT AWARE IF ANY WARNING LIGHTS WERE ILLUMINATED. THE DRIVER EXITED THE VEHICLE AND WHEN OPENED THE HOOD, SHE SAW FIRE AND SUSTAINED BURNS ON HER RIGHT HAND. THE CONTACT STATED THE DRIVERS STEPFATHER WAS ABLE TO EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE WITH WATER HOSE. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WAS CONTACTED BUT WAS NOT AWARE OF THEY FILED A FIRE REPORT. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE DRIVER DID NOT SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION FOR HER INJURIES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DRIVABLE. THE VEHICLE TOWED TO HER RESIDENCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED AS OF YET. A DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD BEEN INFORMED OF FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 137,000. *BF*JB

I HAVE AN 2013 CHEVY CRUZE 2LT 1.4L ENGINE. I DISCOVERED AN OIL LEAK UPON MY LAST OIL CHANGE AT 55,000 MILES. RECENTLY I DISCOVERED A SECOND OIL LEAK AT THE VALVE COVER AT 60,000 MILES. I TOOK IT TO THE CHEVY DEALERSHIP TO HAVE DIAGNOSED AND THEY CONFIRMED A MULTI LOCATION OIL LEAK, ONE AT THE CAM COVER AND THE SECOND AT THE VALVE COVER. SINCE THIS VEHICLE IS UNDER STANDARD MILEAGE FOR THE AGE, THIS SEEMS TO BE AN INDICATION OF DEFECT AND NOT UNDER NORMAL MAINTENANCE. I AM LOOKING TO HAVE THIS COVERED BY GM UNDER EXTENDED SPECIAL PARTS WARRANTY LIKE THE WATER PUMP IS COVERED. I ALSO HAD A OIL COOLER FAIL AND A WATER OUTLET ASSEMBLY FAIL AT 40,000 JUST OUTSIDE OF THE FACTORY WARRANTY, BUT THAT JUST HAPPENED TO BE COVERED UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY BUT DOES NOT CHANGE THE FACT THAT ANOTHER FAILURE HAPPENED IN TWO'S. I HAVE A CASE # WITH GM AND IT IS [XXX]CAM SHAFT COVER SEAL AND VALVE COVER GASKET FAILURE. FEEL FREE TO CALL ME, [XXX] AT [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

WHENEVER I REFUEL MY CAR I HAVE TO REV THE ENGINE FOR A COUPLE MINUTES OTHERWISE THE CAR WILL DIE.

MY CAR KEPT SAYING "AC OFF DUE TO HIGH ENGINE HEAT" EVEN THOUGH MY CAR WAS NOT READING HOT WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THEN THE CAR WOULD START SMOKING AND BLOW A HOSE AND LIQUID WOULD BE EVERYWHERE. I HAD A BRAND NEW THERMOSTATE PUT IN AND IT STILL DOES THE SAME THING. ALSO A PREVIOUS RECALL ABOUT HOW THE TIRE COULD SEPRATE "TIRE ROD" IS STILL DOING IT AGAIN. I HAD 3 TRANSAXLE SEALS AND A TRANSMISSION SEAL, A MOTOR BLOWER FOR THE A.C ALL REPLACED WITHIN THE FIRST YEAR (STILL UNDER WARRENTY) OF OWNING THIS CAR. THE STABILITY TRACK WILL SHOW UP ON THE SCREEN. BUT I'M TIRED OF WORRYING WHEN MY CAR WILL WANT TO JUST RANDOMLY BLOW HOSES AND START SMOKING AND LEAVE ME STRANDED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD! I BOUGHT A CHEAP CAR TO GET ME TO WORK AND MY CRUZE IS SITTING!!

WHILE MY SON WAS DRIVING THE CAR ON THE HIGHWAY THE ENGINE STARTED TO SMOKE. HE PULLED OVER AND TURNED OFF THE CAR. HE WAITED 10 MINTUES AND STARTED THE CAR TO HEAD BACK HOME. WHEN HE ARRIVED HOME LIQUID WAS LEAKING OUT THE CAR AND THE CAR HAD SMOKE COMING FROM THE ENGINE. AT THIS TIME THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. GM HAD SENT A RECALL NOTICE IN THE MAIL (N202299080), A COUPLE OF DAYS PRIOR. I CALLED THEM ON MONDAY AND THEY TOLD ME TO TAKE IT TO A DEALER. I CALLED THE LOCAL CHEVY DEALER AND TOLD THEM ABOUT THE RECALL NOTICE. HE TOLD ME TO BRING IT IN. I CALLED A TOW TRUCK DRIVER AND LEFT THE CAR AT THE CHEVY DEALER. ATER THEY HAD THE CAR FOR TWO WEEKS, THEY EXPLAINED THAT IT WILL BE $2000 TO FIX THE VEHICLE, EVEN THOUGH THERE ARE CURRENTLY 4 RECALLS ON THE VEHICLE. I CALLED GM SEVERAL TIMES TO ASK HOW ARE THEY GOING TO RECTIFY THIS, WITH NO CALL-BACK. THE VEHICLE IS STILL AT THE CHEVY DEALERSHIP.

STABILITRAK AND BRAKE MALFUNCTION

ENGINE OVERHEATING AFTER 10 MINUTES OF DRIVING, CAR ENGINE USED TO STOP WHILE DRIVING AND HAVE MULTIPLE REPAIRS TO FIX VEHICLE AFTER MY MOM PASSED. I HAVE SPENT OVER $5,000 IN REPAIRS EASILY FOR THIS VEHICLE AND SAME ISSUE AND NOT EVEN CHEVY DEALERSHIP ABLE TO FIX

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STARTED TO VIBRATE AND SHAKE ABNORMALLY. DURING THE FAILURE, THE STABILI-TRAC AND CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHTS WERE ILLUMINATED. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURES WERE NOT DETERMINED. THE LOCAL DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

CONTINUAL ISSUES WITH ANTIFREEZE LEAKING - EVEN AFTER MULTIPLE SERVICES FROM DEALER

THE STABILITY CONTROL GOES OFF DUE TO A AIR LEAK IN THE AIR VALVE CAUSING LOSE OF STEERING POWER WHICH HAS OCCURED WHILE DRIVING THE STEERING WHEEL BECOMES IMPOSSIBLE TO STEER WHEN THIS HAPPENS

THE PASSENGER LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT HARDLY EVER WORKS AS SOON AS THE CAR IS TURNED ON THE LIGHT IS OUT , IF TAPPED OR BUMPED LIGHT WILL COME BACK ON, SUCH AS WITH YOUR HAND OR WHILE MOVING. I HAVE REPLACED BULB FEW TIMES STILL HAVING TROUBLE.

MESSAGE ON SCREEN COMES UP "A/C OFF DUE TO HIGH ENGINE TEMP" A FEW MINUTES AFTER DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. A/C SHUTS OFF TEMP GOES DOWN AND EVERYTHING IS FINE THEN YOU CAN TURN THE AIR BACK ON AND IT RUNS FINE. CAN NOT DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM WHEN THE PROBLEM DOESN'T LAST LONG ENOUGH FOR ANYONE TO SEE.

CAR KEPT SMELLING LIKE BURNING OIL. THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT ALWAYS SMELLED LIKE BURNING OIL. AT ONE POINT, RYAN ALMOST FELL ASLEEP AT THE WHEEL AFTER A DRIVE TO WORK IN THE WINTER BECAUSE OF THE INTERIOR AIR QUALITY. WE BROUGHT IT IN AND THE TURBO CHARGER OIL COOLER PIPES WERE LEAKING INCLUDING THE FEED AND THE RETURN.

GOING ONTO THE FREEWAY LOST MOST OF POWER, WHITE SMOKE PLUME THROUGH EXHAUST, ENGINE WAS RUNNING POORLY. MECHANIC HAD TO REPLACE MY ENGINE AT 134,040 MILES.

THE CAR WAS IN MOTION ON A HIGHWAY. WHEN ACCELERATING THE CAR SPUTTERED A BIT THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STARTED TO BLINK AND TRACTION LIGHT CAME ON. ALSO MADE A CERTAIN WHINING NOISE. A MESSAGE POPPED UP STATING STABILITRAK SERVICE.

I WAS JUST DRIVING ALONG UNDER NORMAL DRIVING WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN MY RPMS WENT ALL THE WAY UP AND THE CAR WASN'T GOING ANYWHERE BUT COSTING TO A STOP ALONG WITH A LOUD BANGING SOUND. I WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 28MPH ON A STREET

CHIRPING NOISE PCV VALVE IS BAD. *TR

I HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH MY TURBO CHARGE SYSTEM(S) FOR A COUPLE YEARS. I HAVE BROUGHT MY VEHICLE TO BE SERVICED SEVERAL TIMES AND THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS LATER I'M STILL HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. MY ENGINE LIGHT COMES OFF AND ON SO I HAD TO WAIT UNTIL THE HE LIGHT WAS ON FOR A DIAGNOSIS. I WAS THEN TOLD I NEEDED TO REPLACE MY TURBO BOOST SYSTEM. I HEN ASKED ABOUT THE PREVIOUS REPAIR TO MY TURBO SYSTEM I WAS TOLD THERE WAS MORE THAN ONE. THEN A STABILITRAK/ TRACTION POPS UP PERIODICALLY. ON JUNE 22, MY CAR WOULD NOT START, I COULD NOT REMOVE THE KEY FROM THE IGNITION. THINKING IT WAS THE BATTERY, I GOT A JUMP AND PROCEEDED ON MY WAY. WHEN I WAS LEAVING MY DESTINATION, TO HAD TO JUMP START MY CAR AGAIN. THE ENGINE LIGHT ISN'T ON CURRENTLY , SO I AM UNABLE TO GET ANOTHER DIAGNOSIS. THIS HAS BEEN THE WORSE EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE. I HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH CHEVROLET DIRECTLY OVER THE PAST COUPLE YEARS AND THEY PROVIDED ABSOLUTELY NO RESOLUTION. MY CAR ISN'T GAINING SPEED.. IT SEEMS TO HESITATE OFTEN AND RUNS EVEN WORSE WITH THE AC RUNNING. I WILL NEVER PURCHASE ANOTHER CHEVY PRODUCT NOR WILL I RECOMMEND THIS MAKE. CHEVY NEED TO MAKE THIS RIGHT. THESE CARS ARE PROVING TO BE DEFECTIVE AND THEY ARE PROVING THEY COULD CARELESS. CHEVY RECEIVED A SUBSTANTIAL STIMULUS PACKAGE, MAKE THINGS RIGHT WITH YOUR COMPANY. *TR

THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN ONGOING SINCE LAST YEAR. I HAVE BEEN GETTING MESSAGES ON MY DASH WITH ERRORS SUCH AS SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL/SERVICE STABILITRAK. THE CAR SLOWS DOWN TO 5 SPEED AND IT STALLS /JERK WHEN DRIVING. THIS IS NOT SAFE AND I ALMOST GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF IT. THIS VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE. TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR A DIAGNOSIS CHECK AND WAS TOLD NOTHING SHOWED UP BUT A LOW BATTERY. I GOT THAT FIXED AND THE CAR IS STILL HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY/STREETS/EXPRESSWAYS WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN MY CAR DECELERATED AND I GOT THE MESSAGE ENGINE POWER HAS BEEN REDUCED/SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL/SERVICE STABILITRAK AS WELL AS MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. BECAUSE OF THIS, I WAS FORCED TO PULLOVER WHILE ALMOST BEING HIT BY OTHER VEHICLES. THIS WAS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND SCARY FOR ME BECAUSE I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT HAPPENED AND IT COULD HAVE COST ME MY LIFE, AS WELL AS OTHERS. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO CHEVY AND FIRESTONE AUTO COMPLETE AND NO ONE KNOWS WHY THIS IS HAPPENING. *TR

BRAKE PROBLEM CAN ALWAYS STOP THE CAR MAY REQUIRE INCREASED PEDAL EFFORT. THE PROBLEM COME ON GO. IF I HAVE AN EMERGENCY IT WILL NOT STOP. THERE IS A RECALL ON THIS. *TR

I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT ISSUES WITH THE CAR SINCE I'VE HAD IT AND FIXED EVERYTHING THAT WAS WRONG WITH IT THE PALM CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP THAT SAID WAS WRONG WITH IT AND YET NOTHING HAS BEEN RESOLVED MY STABILITRAK CONTROL SERVICE SYSTEM LIGHT CAME ON ALONG WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AS THEY ARE FLASHING. I'M HAVING A VERY HARD TIME GETTING TRACTION I HAVE A 1 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER AND I DON'T FEEL THAT THIS CAR IS SAFE FOR HER. I WANT THIS ISSUE LOOKED INTO I HAVE SPENT MONEY THAT I DON'T HAVE TO JUST TRY TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM AND YET IT'S NOT FIXED. *TR

I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR MULTIPLE TIMES TO GET IT FIXED. AS I AM DRIVING THE CAR THE RADIO TURNS OFF. THEN THE ENGINE ITSELF TURNS OFF. NOT ONLY THAT, AS I AM DRIVING IT THE STEERING WHEEL STOPS WORKING AND THE CAR COMPLETELY SHUTS OFF. I HAVE SPENT OVER 7,000 DOLLARS IN REPAIRS AND I CAN NO LONGER AFFORD FOR REPAIRS. NO ONE SEEMS TO KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. I WOULD REALLY LIKE TO OPEN AN INVESTIGATION ON THIS CAR AS MY LIFE SEEMS TO BE THREATENED AND NO ONE CAN TELL ME WHY THE CAR GOES ON AND OFF WHILE IN DRIVE. I ALMOST GOT IN A MAJOR HIGHWAY ACCIDENT BECAUSE IT TURNED OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING 60 MILES PER HOUR ON A BUSY HIGHWAY. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS PROBLEM AND HELP ME GET BACK TO A NORMAL CAR. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR ALMOST A 2 YEARS NOW. *TR

SERVICE STABLI TRAC AND SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL COME ON. CAR IS 'CHUGGING' WHEN IN MOTION AND THEN DIES. IGNITION COIL GET BURNT OUT. THIS IS NOW THE 3RD TIME IN A MONTH.

MY DRIVERS SIDE SEAT BELT LIGHT WOULD BLINK OCCASIONALLY AS I WAS DRIVING THINKING MY SEAT BELT WAS NOT LATCHING HOWEVER, IT WAS AND I CLEANED IT AS BEST AS I COULD. STILL WOULD COME ON, BLINKS, TURNS OFF, COMES ON AND THE SOUND WILL EVEN SOUND TO PUT MY SEAT BELT ON. ALL THIS WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION, WHETHER I'M DRIVING SLOWLY OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY OR DOWN THE INTERSTATE. *TR

I LEFT MY KEYS IN THE IGNITION ONE NIGHT, WENT TO BED, AND WOKE UP TO MY HEADLIGHTS TURNING ON AND OFF. I THOUGHT SOMEONE WAS TRYING TO STEAL MY CAR, BUT WHEN I RAN OUTSIDE, THE CAR WAS LITERALLY STARTING ITSELF, TURNING ITSELF OFF, TURNING BACK ON, AND BACK OFF. I'M NOT SURE HOW LONG IT HAD BEEN DOING THAT, BUT THEN I STARTED IT UP MYSELF, AND TURNED IT OFF, THEN REMOVED THE KEYS FROM THE IGNITION. IT WAS IN THE PARK POSITION.

FIRST THE WATER PUMP HAD TO BE REPLACED, THEN THE TURBO COILS HAD TO BE REPLACED $740, THEN THE SURGE TANK AND NOW THEY ARE SAYING MORE LEAKS AND WANTED TO DO SOME TEST THAT COST $65. SOMETHING IS NOT RIGHT, AM I THE ONLY ONE THIS IS HAPPENING TO?

THE STABLIC TRACT, THE ENGINE, THE ENGINE SLOWS DOWN, THE POWER STEERING, THE ENGINE MODULE HAS BLOWED I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR DAY 1, I BOUGHT FROM JDA AUTOMOTIVE ON GARNERS FERRY ROAD. I HAVE BEEN TAKING CAR TO CHEVROLET IN COLUMBIA,SC HARBISON . THEY REPAIRED RECALLS BUT SOON AS REPAIR THEY SEND A SIGNAL TO CAR TO TEAR UP .THE CAR COME TO COMPLETE STOP CAUSING ME TO NEED NECK BRACE IT ALSO IS TEARING UP THE THREAD ON TIRES. AND PEOPLE ARE BLOWING HORN AND ALSO HITTING ME IN BACK EVERYWHERE I GO I HAVE TO USE EMERGENCY BLINKING LIGHTS.

THE CONTACT STATED THAT THIS FAILURE OCCURRED IN 2018 HOWEVER RECENTLY HER HUSBAND WAS DRIVING AT 70 MPH, HIT A DEER IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HOOD WHICH THEN ROLLED OVER ONTO THE PASSENGER SIDE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAGS ALSO FAILED TO DEPLOY IN THIS INCIDENT AS THE DAMAGE WAS A HUGE DENT IN THE HOOD AND FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED AND CONTACT WAS NOT INJURED. THE INSURANCE COMPANY WAS CONTACTED AS THE VEHICLE WAS AWAITING INSPECTION. THE DEALER AND THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN CONTACTED YET. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 165,000.

THE INTAKE MANIFOLD BECAME CRACKED AND I HAVE RESEARCHED IT HAS BEEN AN ISSUE FOR MANY CHEVY CRUZE BETTWEEN THE YEARS OF 2011-2014. THE VEHICLE HAS A INCREASED AIR FLOW THE RESULTS IN A POOR AIR TO FUEL MIXTUE INSIDE THE COMBUSTION CHAMBER, ALSO ALLOWS OIL TO BLOWBY. THE ISSUE WITH THE INTAKE HAS CAUSED INCREASED OIL CONSUMPTION/ BURNING, RESULTED IN A LOSS OF POWER UPON FIRST TAKE OFF FROM STOP LIGHT. THIS ISSUE HAS CAUSED THE COMPUTER TO ADJUST THE TIMING MORE THAN THE MANUFACTURER ALLOWED LIMIT WHICH HAS RESULTED IN A BENT VALVE AND BAD TIMING

MY SCREEN FOR THE RADIO STARTS TO FLICKER, AND THE ENTIRE CAR SHUTS DOWN. AFTER WAITING FOR 5 OR 10 MINUTES THE CAR POWERS BACK UP AND STARTS. ANOTHER TIME, WHILE I WAS STILL PARKED THE RADIO STARTS TO FLICKER AGAIN. SO I TURN OFF THE CAR, BUT THE KEY IS STUCK IN THE IGNITION AND WHEN YOU TURN THE KEY YOU GET NOTHING. IT DOESN'T START AND YOU GET NO POWER. AFTER WAITING A FEW MINUTES AGAIN THE CAR POWERS UP ON ITS OWN WHILE KEY IS STILL IN THE IGNITION. THIS ALSO HAPPENED ONCE WHILE I WAS DRIVING. LUCKILY I WAS JUST TAKING OFF, SO I WASN'T GOING VERY FAST.

A/C OFF DUE TO HIGH ENGINE TEMP WARNING ON THE DASH. TRIED RESETTING ECU, DIDN'T WORK. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON. CHANGED BOTH COOLANT SENSORS AND STILL BROKEN. REPLACED OLD BROKEN THERMOSTAT WITH A NEW FACTORY SENSOR, AND 4 MONTHS LATER IT'S ALREADY BROKEN.

THE PLASTIC GEAR THAT RUNS THE DEFROSTER BROKE AND WE CAN'T SEE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE

IN 2018 CODE P2099 WAS FIXED ON MY 2013 CHEVY CRUZE AND NOW THE CODE IS POPPING UP AGAIN IT'S ONLY BEEN A YEAR AND A HALF AND THE PART WAS FIXED BY THE CHEVY DEALER SHIP IT'S WAS BRAND NEW, SO WHY DO I NEED ANOTHER PLEASE CONTACT ME CONCERNING THIS MATTER THANKS @ [XXX] OR [XXX]. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

CAR LOSES ELECTRICAL . RADIO DISPLAY GOES BLANK. SIGNAL LIGHT USE BECOMES VERY QUIET. KEY BECOMES STUCK IN IGNITION CANNOT BE REMOVED. WITH KEY ON MODE HEAR CLICKING SOUND. NO ELECTRICAL ACTIVITY JUST SOUND. AFTER ABOUT 10 MINUTES CAR COMES BACK TO LIFE. ON OCCASION I GET DISPLAYS ON DASH TELLING ME TO OPEN AND CLOSE DRIVER WINDOW. CAR CAN DIE ANYWHERE. PULLED INTO GAS PUMPS SHUTOFF PULLED OUT KEY. AFTER GETTING GAS PUT KEY INTO IGNITION WENT TO TURN ON KEY BECAME STUCK AND THEIR WAS NO ELECTRICAL ACTIVITY. PUTTING KEY IN ON MODE I HEARD FAST CLICKING BUT NOTHING ELSE. AFTER TEN MINUTES IT'S LIKE THE CAR TURNED ON. I HAD TO TURN THE KEY A COUPLE TIMES BEFORE THE ENGINE CAME ON. I GET VARIOUS DISPLAY NOTICES LIKE THE ONE I ATTACHED. OR I GET STABIL TRAK DISPLAY. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. IT TAKES POWER STEERING AND I AM UNABLE TO DRIVE.

TOOK CAR IN FOR OVERHEATING AFTER HAVING HI TEMP WORNING COME ON. CHECKED COOLANT LEVELS IT WAS LOW. DEAL REPARED CAR PER RECALL. UNFORTUNITLY MOTOR WAS DAMAGED DO TO OVER HEATING. DEALER RETURNED CAR WITH BAD MOTOR AFTER TESTING FOR HIDROCARBONS. CHARGED ME $800 EVEN WITH RECALL PARTS PROVIDED. CAR IS STILL UNDRIVABLE DO TO WATERPUMP LEAK. WHERE DO I GO FROM HERE? LEMON LAW? DEALER WORK NOT PREFORMED? PLEASE ADVISE.

CHEVY CRUZE 2013 LTZ TURBO, I HAVE THE PAPERWORK STATING IT IS TURBO. I TOOK IT TO A DEALERSHIPS BECAUSE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I WAS TOLD IT WAS FINE. THEY CLEARED EVERYTHING. I HAVE BEEN TOLD DIFFERENT THINGS WHETHER IT HAS TURBO OR NOT. THE TURBO WAS SUPPOSEDLY CHECKED SEVERAL TIMES SINCE I BOUGHT IT. THE MECHANIC AT DEALERSHIP SAID IT DID NOT HAVE TURBO. I ASKED THE HEAD MECHANIC TO DRIVE THE CAR WITH ME IN IT. HE DID, THE HEAD MECHANIC CONVINCED ME IT HAD TURBO AND IT WAS WORKING FINE, I SAID IT DOESN'T ACT LIKE IT TO ME, HE SAID THIS IS ALL ITS GOT AND THAT'S IT, THE CAR IS FINE. THE HEAD MECHANIC SAID IT WAS FINE, I SAID SOMETHING IS NOT RIGHT, HE CONVINCED EVERYTHING WAS AND TO PUSH THE CLEAR BUTTON WHEN IT WOULD BE AND IT WOULD BE FINE. THIS HAPPENED BETWEEN 2014 AND 2018 THIS HAS HAPPENED OVER THE YEARS. I WAS TOLD TO BASICALLY TOUCH THE CLEAR BUTTON. CODES STARTED TO POP UP; IT STARTED WITH THE WINDOW. I WAS TOLD TO HIT CLEAR BUTTON WHEN THIS HAPPENS, SO I DID. THEN CHECK ENGINE CODES POP UP ON DASH SAYING: ROLE WINDOW DOWN AND BACK UP, CHECK TRANSMISSION, KEY REMOTE NOT DETECTED, START WITH REMOTE START, CHECK AIR BAGS, IT HAS DONE THIS OFF AND ON FOR A SEVERAL YEARS, OFF AND ON . NOW THIS WEEK IT GOT REALLY BAD TO THE POINT THE CAR JUST SHUTS OFF, THEN IT WILL NOT START, UNTIL I TOUCH THE CLEAR BUTTON OR I HAVE TO UNHOOK THE BATTERY OTHERWISE THE DASH WILL NOT TURN OFF AND I CAN'T START IT. I TOOK IT TO HAVE CODES CHECKED AND MASS FLOW SENSOR , THEN IT SAID VAPOR CANISTER PURGE VALVE THEN MAP SENSOR, I REPLACED ALL, THE CAR STILL ACTS THE SAME. CODES STILL APPEAR ON DASH. START THE CAR IT SEEMS OK, THEN YOU DRIVE IT AND THE ENGINE JUST SHUTS OFF AND CODES START TO APPEAR AGAIN. SHOULD THIS BE CHECKED INTO. I CAN'T FIND RECORDS, I WILL TRY, BUT I CAN TELL YOU DEALERSHIPS.

I BOUGHT MY CAR FROM A USED CAR LOT IN MARCH. AFTER ABOUT 2 WEEKS, I STARTED HAVING ISSUES WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL, AFTER A FEW MONTHS, THE CRUISE SWITCH HAD TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE IT STOPPED WORKING ALL TOGETHER. DURING THE TIME I'VE HAD THE VEHICLE, I'VE HAD TO REPLACE THE THERMOSTAT CONTROL, AS WELL AS A COIL IN THE ENGINE. FOR THE PAST 2-3 MONTHS OR SO, I'LL BE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND THE SERVICE STABILITY TRACK WILL SHOW UP, WITH THE TRACTION CONTROL AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT BLINKING. MY CAR WONT LET ME SPEED UP, AND IT WILL SLOWLY SLOW DOWN. IF I HAVE MY CRUISE ON WHEN THIS HAPPENS, THE CAR'S RPM WILL SHOOT UP IN AN ATTEMPT TO GET BACK TO THE SPEED I HAD IT SET AT. AFTER ABOUT A MINUTE WITH THE LIGHTS ON, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL STOP BLINKING AND THE CAR WILL GO BACK TO NORMAL (THE TRACTION LIGHT WONT TURN OFF UNTIL I TURN OFF THE CAR). I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR TO MY MECHANIC, AND HIS COMPUTER SHOWS CODE UO100, WHICH IS "LOST COMMUNICATION WITH ENGINE CONTROL MODULE", WHICH IS A VERY GENERAL CODE AND COULD COME FROM ANYWHERE. HE CANNOT FIGURE OUT WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT. THE WIRES SEEM CONNECTED PROPERLY, AND EVERYTHING SEEMS FINE, OTHER THAN THE LIGHT ISSUE. IT HAPPENS WHILE I'M DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY, AT ANY RANDOM MOMENT. IT OCCURS AT LEAST EVERY 3 DAYS, IF NOT EVERYDAY.

WHILE DRIVING AND IN MOTION THE VEHICLE SHUTS OFF. AFTER SHUTTING OFF THE ABS MALFUNCTIONS AND THE STEERING MALFUNCTIONS. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE NOW, BOTH ON CITY STREETS. ONCE DISABLED THE VEHICLE WILL NOT RESTART ON IT'S OWN; IT DOESN'T EVEN TURN OVER. THE VEHICLE WILL, HOWEVER, RESTART IF JUMP STARTED. THE FIRST OCCURRENCE PRESENTED WITH A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT THAT CODED AS A FAULTY CAM SHAFT SENSOR. THIS WAS REPLACED AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WENT AWAY. THE SECOND OCCURRENCE PRESENTED WITH NO LIGHTS OR WARNINGS. BOTH THE BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR WERE TESTED AND ARE FUNCTIONING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHEN THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO START THE VEHICLE, HE HEARD A CLICKING NOISE COMING FROM THE VEHICLE AND IT FAILED TO START WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT HAD TO JUMPSTART THE BATTERY IN ORDER FOR THE VEHICLE TO START AND RESUME NORMAL OPERATION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO KLEIN AUTO (111 W MADISON ST, CLINTONVILLE, WI 54929, (715) 823-2135), BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE RECURRED MULTIPLE TIMES INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT AN ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FAILURE OCCURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 120,000.

THE WINDSHIELD DEFROST DOES NOT WORK LIKE IT IS SUPPOSED TOO. WHEN I PUT IT ON DEFROST AND THE HEAT ON FULL BLAST, IT WILL ONLY HEAT THE PASSENGERS SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND NOT THE DRIVERS SIDE OF THE VEHICLE WHICH IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN. ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE THERE IS COLD AIR COMING OUT OF THE VENTS WHICH PREVENTS THE DRIVERS SIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD TO NOT DEFROST. WHEN I DRIVE, IT ONLY SEEMS TO GET WORST SO I PULL OVER AND TRY TO SCRAPE THE ICE OFF AS BEST AS I CAN SO I CAN PROPERLY SEE. THIS IS A HUGE CONCERN WHEN IT COMES TO UPSTATE NEW YORK WINTERS, ESPECIALLY WHEN WE HAVE ICE STORMS WHICH IS WHEN I FIRST ENCOUNTERED THE ISSUE. IT FAILS TO DEFROST THE INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN AS IT IMPAIRS VISIBILITY.

THE OILS IS LEAKING IS THIS VEHICLE .. AND HOW IT WAS EXPLAINED IS THAT THE OIL IS ALSO LEAKING INTO THE TURBO .. WHICH IS CAUSING OIL TO BASICALLY BE PUSHED OUT INSTEAD OF AIR BEING BROUGHT IN FOR THE CAR TO GO THE CORRECT SPEED AND THE CAR IS UNDRIVEABLE

THE CAR SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN AFFECTED OF ONE SEVERAL ISSUES THAT HAPPENED EARLY ON IN THE PRODUCTION WITH A COOLANT LEAK SMELL PROBLEM IN THE CABIN, PARTICULARLY EVIDENT WHILE BRAKING TO A STOP. THE SMELL SEEMS TO BE LINKED TO A COOLANT LEAK IN THE HEATER CORE OR IN THE CONNECTIONS OF THE PIPES WITH THE EXCHANGER ITSELF. THIS IS DANGEROUS AS THE FUMES ARE POSSIBLY SLIGHTLY TOXIC AND, MOREOVER, IT INDICATES A LEAKAGE IN AN AREA AFTER THE FIREWALL THAT CAN LEAD TO SCALDING IF IT GETS IN CONTACT WITH A PERSON. EARLIER EVENTS ON THE CAR HAPPENED IN THE INITIAL PRODUCTION OF THE CRUZE AND TYPICALLY QUITE EARLY IN THE MILEAGE, BUT MY CAR SHOWED IT NOW AT 105000 MILES. AN IMPROVEMENT, BUT EVIDENTLY NOT A FULL FIX.

MY SERVICE AIR BAGS SENSOR IS ON AND THE AIRBAGS HAVE TURNED OFF FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE CAR.

THE SENSOR STATED TURN OFF THE AC DUE THE ENGINE TEMPERATURE , THE MOTOR FAN RUNS AS IF THE CAR IS RUNNING HOT

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE THE CONTACT'S WIFE WAS DRIVING 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE HESITATED, JERKED, AND FAILED TO MOVE BEFORE SPONTANEOUSLY ACCELERATING. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BOB BELL NISSAN (7900 EASTERN AVE, BALTIMORE, MD 21224, (410) 288-2500) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 18,000.

AIRBAG LIGHTS CAME ON, AIRBAG SENSOR HAS TO BE REPLACED. I PAID OVER $800 AND THE PART HAS BEEN ON ORDER FOR A MONTH!

TRANSMISSION FAILURE AT 70,000 MILES.

DROVE TO WORK IN THE MORNING AS USUAL WITH NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS, CAR SAT IN THE PARKING DURING THE DAY WENT OUT TO DRIVE HOME AT THE END OF THE DAY AND THE AIR BAG TROUBLE LIGHT IN ON. TOOK CAR THE GM DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE CODE DIAGNOSED AND DEALERSHIP INFORMS ME THAT THE AIRBAG AND CONNECTING AIRBAG HARNESS WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED DUE TO THE FACT THE AIRBAG WILL NOT RECALIBRATE AND IS NOT COMMUNICATING WITH THE COMPUTER.

WHEN THE CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM IS PLACED IN DEFROST MODE THE AIR DOES NOT BLOW OUT THE DEFROSTER VENTS AND THE WINDSHIELD DOES NOT CLEAR. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD ESPECIALLY IN MICHIGAN WITH ALL THE WEATHER CHANGES. THERE ARE MANY REPORTS ON LINE WITH VIDEOS OF A GEAR ON THE DEFROST DOOR STRIPPED/BROKEN, THESE REPORTS GO BACK YEARS TO CURRENT. SEEMS GM DOES NOT PLAN TO AUTHORIZE A RECALL FOR THIS SAFETY ISSUE. I CHECKED WITH LOCAL CHEVY DEALER AND CHEVY CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS TOLD THERE IS NO RECALL RELATED TO THIS ISSUE.

BEEN HEARING TICKING NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. CODE P0234

I AM WRITING TO REQUEST AN INVESTIGATION INTO CHEVROLET CRUZE HEATER BLEND DOOR ACTUATOR FAILURES. THE ISSUE IS A SMALL PLASTIC GEAR THAT STRIPS OUT AND DOES NOT ALLOW THE BLEND DOOR TO CYCLE FROM WINDSHIELD DEFROST / DASH VENTS / AND FLOOR VENTS. THIS IS A HIGH SAFETY CONCERN IN COLD / RAINY WEATHER DRIVING DUE TO THE VEHICLE OPERATOR IS UNABLE TO ADJUST THE BLED DOOR TO DEFROST THE WINDSHIELD. THIS IN TURN ALLOWS THE WINDSHIELD TO BECOME FOGGED, (OR FROSTY IN EXTREME COLD) WHICH LEADS TO VERY POOR VISIBILITY. I HAVE A PROFESSIONAL YOUTUBE CHANNEL THAT SHOWS THE ISSUE IN DETAIL THE LINK IS HTTPS://YOUTU.BE/I5PDAIA0P-8 QUOTES TO REPAIR THIS ISSUE RANGE FROM $800.00 TO $1500.00. BEING THIS FAILURE CAN LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT CAUSED FROM POOR VISIBILITY FROM AN OBVIOUS DESIGN FLAW, TO CUT CORNERS AND SAVE MONEY, THIS NEEDS TO BE LOOKED AT. MY VIDEO HAS NEARLY 11,000 VIEWS FROM PEOPLE WITH THIS PROBLEM. ALSO ALMOST EVERY FORUM ONLINE HAVE PEOPLE DISCUSSING THIS PROBLEM. I BELIEVE IT IS N BAD TASTE FOR CHEVROLET TO NOT YET ACKNOWLEDGE THIS AS A RECALL.

DEFROST QUIT WORKING..AIR BLOWS OUT OF ALL OTHER VENTS BUT NOT DEFROST

WHILE DRIVING THE CAR MAKING A WEIRD NOISE WHEN ACCELERATING AND THE RPM GOES UP BUT THE CAR IS NOT UP TO SPEED. THEN SOME LOUD WEIRD NOISE HAPPENS WHEN YOU PRESS ON THE GAS. I TOOK IT TO GET DIAGNOSED AND IT SAID SOMETHING ABOUT A TURBO UNDER-BOOST.

THE LOCKS KEEP LOCKING & UNLOCKING, SOMETIMES AFTER GETTING THE FEELING THAT THE CAR WAS BUMPED, WHICH IT WASN'T. LATELY IT ALMOST STALLS THEN ACCELERATES TOO QUICKLY & MAKES A REVVING SOUND. I'M NOT DRIVING IT RIGHT NOW. THE BUMPING & LOCKS ON & OFF HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING OR WHILE STOPPED.I CAN'T GIVE A DATE. IT'S BEEN HAPPENING FOR COUPLE OF MONTHS. THANK YOU

COOLANT IS LEAKING AND NEEDING TO BE REFILLED DAILY, SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT ON EVERYDAY. 'ENGINE HOT, CAR NEEDS TO IDLE' COMES ON ANYTIME YOU DRIVE IT. ENGINE POWERED REDUCED. AS FOR ELECTRICAL, WHILE FRONT PANEL WILL GO BLACK AND EVERYTHING WILL SHUT DOWN FOR A COUPLE HOURS OR EVEN DAYS.

THE LAST FEW DAYS I HAVE BEEN GETTING MESSAGES ON MY DASH WITH ERRORS SUCH AS 'SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL/SERVICE STABILITRAK'. TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR A DIAGNOSIS CHECK AND WAS TOLD NOTHING SHOWED UP. HOWEVER, THIS MORNING WHILE ON MY COMMUTE TO WORK, I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN MY CAR DECELERATED AND I GOT THE MESSAGE 'ENGINE POWER HAS BEEN REDUCED/SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL/SERVICE STABILITRAK' AND MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. BECAUSE OF THIS, I WAS FORCED TO PULL ONTO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD WHILE ALMOST BEING HIT BY OTHER VEHICLES. THIS WAS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND SCARY FOR ME BECAUSE I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT HAPPENED AND IT COULD HAVE COST ME MY LIFE, AS WELL AS OTHERS.

I WAS SITTING IN MY VEHICLE WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING AND THE AIR CONDITIONER ON, SINCE IT IS AUGUST AND VERY HOT IN LAS VEGAS. I HAD BEEN IN MY VEHICLE FOR APPROXIMATELY FIVE MINUTES ABOUT TO LEAVE WHEN MY AIR CONDITIONER STOPPED BLOWING COLD AIR. I SMELT AN ELECTRICAL SMELL IN COMING THROUGH THE VENTS. THEN MY CAR SHUT OFF AND SMOKE BEGAN POURING OUT FROM UNDERNEATH THE HOOD. I QUICKLY EXITED MY VEHICLE AND CALLED THE FIRE DEPARTMENT. WITHIN A COUPLE MINUTES, THE ENTIRE FRONT OF MY VEHICLE WAS IN ENGULFED IN FLAMES. I HAVE NOT DONE ANY MECHANICAL MAINTENANCE OR WORK TO MY VEHICLE RECENTLY. I HAD MY OIL CHANGED APPROXIMATELY 1000 MILES AGO. I HAD NOT HAD ANY PROBLEMS WITH MY VEHICLE UNTIL IT CAUGHT ON FIRE SPONTANEOUSLY AND RANDOMLY WITHOUT WARNING.

OUT OF NO WHERE THE ENGINE STARTS TO SPUTTER WHILE SITTING IN IDLE ON THE 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. IT IS THE VALVE COVER, LETTING IN TOO MUCH AIR TO THE FUEL SYSTEM CAUSING THE ENGINE TO SPUTTER TO TRY TO CORRECT WHICH, IF NOT TAKEN CARE OF IMMEDIATELY, CAUSES THE CRANK SHAFT TO GO BAD WHICH MAKES YOUR CAR SOUND LIKE YOU SHOULD BE ON THE JETSONS. THERE ARE A NUMBER OF THIS SAME COMPLAINT OVER THE INTERNET AND WANTED TO MAKE YOU AWARE AS I AM NOW HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE.

VIHICLE WAS ON FREEWAY AND HEATED UP SO BAD QUICKLY AND HAD TO PULL OVER. . LOOSES COOLANT CONSTANTLY. PART NEEDS TO BE CHANGED EVERY COUPLE OF MONTHS. IT IS HARD TO GET THE PART IN MY AREA AND NEIGHBOR CITIES BECAUSE IT HAPPENS TO A LOT TO DIFFERENT PEOPLE WITH THE SAME CAR. I AM CONSTANTLY FIXING LINES AND REPLACING COOLANT EVERY WEEK.

THE TURBO BOOSTER MALIFUNCTION THE CAR WILL NOT PICK UP SPEED AND TIME WOULD STOP ALL WILL YOU ARE ACCELERATING ON THE GAS

THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER HAS FAILED TWICE IN THIS CAR, AND THE SECOND TIME IS OUT OF WARRANTY. BOTH FAILURES OCCURRED WITHIN APPROXIMATELY 90K MILES. THE COST TO REPLACE THIS IS ABOUT $1200. THIS CAN BE FINANCIALLY DEVASTATING TO SOME FAMILIES.

A FEW WEEKS AGO, I EXPERIENCED AN ALERT REGARDING MY ENGINE OVERHEATING (AC OFF DUE TO ENGINE OVER HEAT, ENGINE OVERHEAT IDLE ENGINE). I TURNED MY CAR OFF AND ALLOWED IT TO COOL DOWN BEFORE CONTINUING MY TRAVELS HOME. ONCE I REACHED MY HOME, I SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT AT GRAND PRIZE CHEVROLET IN NANUET, NY FOR THURSDAY, JUNE 27. THE MECHANICS AT THIS DEALERSHIP FOUND THAT MY WATER PUMP AND HOSES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS A $1600 JOB, AND I PAID TO HAVE THIS WORK DONE, I WAS NOT ABLE TO PICK MY CAR UP FROM THE DEALER UNTIL JUNE 29. ABOUT TWO WEEKS LATER ON FRIDAY, JULY 12, I RECEIVED THE ENGINE OVERHEATING ALERT ONCE AGAIN. I PROMPTLY CALLED GRAND PRIZE AGAIN, AND SCHEDULED THE EARLIEST APPOINTMENT I COULD. I WAS NOT ABLE TO BRING MY CAR IN TO BE LOOKED AT UNTIL TUESDAY, JULY 16. AGAIN, THE MECHANICS AT THIS DEALERSHIP FOUND A DIFFERENT PROBLEM WITH MY CAR. THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE COOLANT TANK NEEDED TO BE REPLACED ALONG WITH THE RADIATOR CAP. I HAD BOTH OF THESE ITEMS REPLACED AT NO COST. I ASKED THEM TO TEST THE ENGINE ONCE AGAIN TO BE SURE THAT THE PROBLEM HAD BEEN RESOLVED. UPON CHECKING THE ENGINE, THEY FOUND THAT MY ENGINE WAS DAMAGED AND I WOULD EITHER NEED A NEW ENGINE HEAD OR A COMPLETELY NEW ENGINE. I WAS INFORMED THAT A NEW ENGINE HEAD WOULD COST ABOUT $4200 AND A NEW ENGINE WOULD COST ABOUT $8000.

I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE (2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE) IN 2016 AND IT HAD MILEAGE OF 3,500 MILES. LESS THAN A MONTH OF OWNERSHIP AN ALERT SHOWED AND SOUNDED IN THE DASH LIGHTS THAT THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR WAS OPEN WHEN IT WASN'T AND THIS WAS WHILE IN A PARK POSITION AND WHILE IN MOTION ON ANY ROAD. THE ALERT WAS ALMOST CONSTANT SO I BROUGHT IT TO A REPAIR SHOP WHICH REPLACED THE LATCH IN THE DOOR 3 SEPARATE TIMES AND THE PROBLEM STILL OCCURRED. EVENTUALLY I ASKED TO JUST HAVE THE LATCH DISCONNECTED IN THE DOOR BECAUSE NO ONE COULD FIX IT AND STOP THE ALERT AND SOUNDS FROM GOING OFF. SO NOW I HAVE A $300 LATCH DISCONNECTED INSIDE THE DOOR BECAUSE THAT WOULDN'T FIX THE PROBLEM PLUS I HAVE TO MANUALLY LOCK AND UNLOCK THAT DOOR IF I NEED TO USE IT WHEN ALL OF THE OTHER 3 DOORS CAN BE ELECTRONICALLY LOCKED/UNLOCKED WITH THE FOB OR THE LOCK/UNLOCK BUTTON IN THE CAR. NOW A NEW PROBLEM THAT IS CURRENTLY GOING ON IS THE REAR BRAKE LIGHT IN THE BACK WINDSHIELD IS VERY DIM WHILE IN A PARK POSITION OR WHILE IN MOTION DRIVING ON ANY ROAD. IT STILL WORKS BUT IS NOT AS BRIGHT AS IT USED TO BE. IT'S A LIGHT BAR THAT SITS IN THE BACK WINDOW ACTING AS A 3RD BRAKE LIGHT AND IT DOES NOT CONTAIN LIGHT BULBS. ALSO, I'VE HAD A COUPLE OF OTHER ALERTS SHOW UP IN THE DASH FOR A DAY OR MORE WHILE IN A PARK POSITION OR IN MOTION DRIVING ON ANY ROAD AND THEN THEY GO AWAY AFTER A FEW DAYS. I SUSPECT THIS VEHICLE HAS AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM AND I CAN'T AFFORD TO HAVE IT DIAGNOSED.

NEEDS BRAND NEW ENGINE. HARD TIME ACCELERATING. SHOP SAYS RODS INSIDE ENGINE ARE BEING KNOCKED AROUND. ONLY 120,000 MILES. HARD TO ACCELERATION AT ANY TIME. ENGINE LIGHT IS SIGNALED.

THE CAR SAID OVERHEAT-AC OFF CODE- CAR WAS VERY LOW ON COOLANT- TOOK TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER THAT THE ENGINE WAS BLOWN AND NOT TO DRIIVE THE CAR- I ASK ABOUT SERVICE BULLETIN- BUT WAS TOLD THIS DID NOT APPLY. I HAD PROBLEM WITH OVERHEATING 18 MONTHS AGO- REPLACED, THERMOSTAT, CANISTER, ETC AS MY EXPENSE.I ASK IF THIS WAS RELATED AND WAS TOLD NO. I RESEARCHED PROBLEMS AND FOUND MANY ABOUT ENGINE AND COOLING PROBLEMS. THE DEALER HAS MADE NO EFFORT TO HELP RESOLVE THE ISSUE. I TRIED TO HAVE CAR TRANSFERRED TO A DIFFERENT BRANCH OF DEALERSHIP TO HAVE PROBLEM EVALUATED- I WAS INFORMED BY SALESMAN THAT THE DEALER REFUSED TO TRANSFER THE CAR TO HAVE IT CHECKED. HIS SEEMS VERY ODD. I CALLED GMC- CHEVROLET DIVISION BUT HAVE NOT GOTTEN A RESPONSE. THE DEALER WANTS ME TO TRADE IN CAR FOR A DIFFERENT ONE AND WILL OFFER ME $300-$600. WHICH IS RIDICULOUS. AFTER I TRADE IN THE CAR-NO ONE CAN CHECK IT- THE CAR STILL RUNS BUT I AM AFRAID TO GET STUCK.

THE CAR WOULD BECOME HARD TO STEER AND CONTROL. ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL IN STABILITY CONTROL WARNING LIGHTS FLASHING. THIS HAPPENS WITHOUT WARNING CAN HAPPEN AT ANY SPEED HIGHWAY ORE CITY. THE TIMES THIS HAS OCCURRED WAS ON THE HIGHWAY. (THIS IS A TSB I LATER FOUND BUT THE COULD EASILY CAUSED A CRASH ON ACCIDENT)

MY CAR IS A DANGER THE ENGINE POWER SLOWS DOWN WHEN DRIVING CAUSING ANOTHER TO HIT IN THE BACK POWER STEERING LIGHT DISPLAYS, STABILIZE TRACT AND ENGINE POWER, I HAVE ALREADY HAD ONE HIT AND RUN ACCIDENT.I TOOK CAR TO CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP HARBISON RD COLUMBIA SC THEY JUST HALF REPAIR IT SOMEONE MAY DIE IF CAR CONTINUE TO POWER DOWN.

CAR HAS BEEN RETURNED TO DEALER FOR REPAIRS CONCERNING THE MOTOR AND ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS. THEY HAVE NOT BEEN SERVICED OUTSIDE OF THE DEALERSHIP. CAR FREQUENTLY QUITS AND HAS TO BE JUMPSTARTED.

MULTIPLE COOLANT ISSUES. BOUGHT 2/2019, TOOK IT BACK TO THE SHOP FOR COOLANT ISSUES IN 3/2019 AND DISCOVERED ITS LEAKING COOLANT AGAIN. FROM THE ENGINE COOLANT WATER OUTLET.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE THE CONTACT WAS MAKING A LEFT TURN, A SECOND VEHICLE CRASHED INTO THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE OF HER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED FROM THE SCENE. THE DRIVER SUSTAINED AN INJURED RIGHT SHOULDER, WRIST, AND BACK THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER AND LOCAL DEALER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 73,000.

2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO POWER STEERING GOING OUT. *LD *JS

I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 35 MPH ON A CITY STREET WHEN THE PERSON IN FRONT OF ME SLAMMED ON THEIR BRAKES THE FIRST TIME I HIT THE BRAKE AND THE CAR STOPPED THE NEXT TIME I HIT THE BRAKE IT WAS HARD AND DIDN'T STOP THE CAR CAUSING ME TO CRASH INTO THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME, THE AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY AND I THINK IT SHOULD HAVE, CAUSING MY HEAD TO SLAM INTO THE STEERING WHEEL CAUSING ME TO BITE MY TONGUE IN HALF. I HAVE CONTACT CHEVROLET AND GM MULTIPLE TIMES AND THEY WON'T DO ANYTHING THEY LITERALLY HAVE NOT CARED ONE BIT. I BELIEVE THEIR IS A PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKING SYSTEM OR THE VACUUM SYSTEM IN THE BRAKES AND I AM NOT THE FIRST PERSON THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO IN A CRUZE, I LOOKED IT UP AFTER IT HAPPENED AND I FOUND A FEW OTHER STORIES OF THE SAME THING HAPPENING.

MY CHECK ENGINE KEEPS GOING ON AND OFF AND WHEN COMES ON GIVE OUT POWER LITTLE BY LITTLE TILL MY ENGINE REDUCE POWER COMES UP AND GIVES OUT AND ALMOST CRASHED ON FREEWAY SERVAL TIMES

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE PARKING THE VEHICLE, THE POWER STEERING WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED INTERMITTENTLY. AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC REPAIRED THE POWER STEERING. THE DIAGNOSIS INFORMATION WAS NOT PROVIDED. THE DEALER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 39,000. .*BF*JB

DEFROST SWITCH/DOOR MOTOR GEARS ARE BROKEN CAUSING THE WINDSHIELD TO NOT BE ABLE TO DEFROST. DRIVING VISIBILITY IS SLIM TO NONE AT ALL.

WENT OUT AND STARTED CAR UP. CAR WAS SHAKING AND SERVICE STABILITRAC AND SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL WERE ON THE DASH SCREEN. THIS HAPPENED BACK IN DECEMBER AS WELL AND THEN THE CAR EVENTUALLY STOPPED WORKING ALTOGETHER.

I HAVE HAD A COOLANT LEAK AND HAVE HAD IT REPAIRED 5 TIMES SINCE I PURCHASED. REPAIRED AT SUBURBAN CHEVROLET IN EDEN PRARIE. NOW IT HAS TO HAPPEN AGAIN SO IT IS GOING BACK AND I HAVE HAD IT TOWED AND STILL OWE 800 OR SO CRAZY

TAKATA RECALL A FEW MONTHS AFTER I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON THEN IT GOES OFF THE LAST FEW MONTHS IT'S BACK ON AND MAKES A NOISE WHEN THE AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM IS ON.

EXCESSIVE CONDENSATION INSIDE THE CAR. WHILE RUNNING THE AC, LOTS OF WATER COMING OUT OF VENTS AND VERY OFTEN IT QUICKLY COVERS THE WHOLE WINDSHIELD TO A STATE WHERE THERE IS 0 VISIBILITY. RECURRING ISSUE. MAJOR ISSUE. LIFE THREATENING CONDITION.

THE PASSENGER WIPER BLADE MOTOR BROKE RIGHT AFTER TURNING THE WIPERS ON, AND WILL NOT MOVE THE WIPER. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN THE PASSENGER SIDE STOPPED WORKING. THE DRIVER SIDE WIPER RANDOMLY STOPS WORKING IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING AT RANDOM TIMES, ON CITY STREETS, HIGHWAYS, ECT.

MY VEHICLE REPEATEDLY RAN HOT EVERYTIME I WOULD DRIVE IT OVER A MILE ON THE ROAD. MY HUSBAND CHANGED THE THERMOSTAT, ALWAYS MADE SURE IT HAD COOLANT, CHECKED MY HOSES, AND REPLACED THE WATER PUMP. BUT EVENTUALLY IT BLEW A HEAD GASKET. WE NOTICED IT DID SO WHEN WE SEEN WATER HAD MIXED INTO THE OIL. SUPREME CHEVROLET REPLACED THE ENGINE AT 96,000 MILES IN NOVEMBER 2016 UNDER WARRANTY. I DROVE THE CAR ABOUT 54,000 MILES WITH THE REPLACED ENGINE AND IT TOO STARTED RUNNING HOT EVERYTIME I WOULD DRIVE IT ABOUT A MILE DOWN THE ROAD. THE DASH LIGHT WOULD SAY TURN A/C OFF AND IDLE ENGINE OR TURN OFF ENGINE DUE TO HIGH TEMPERATURE. WE CHANGED THE RADIATOR, THE HOSES, THE WATER PUMP, AND THE THERMOSTAT ON THE CAR AND IT REMAINED RUNNING HOT WITH HIGH TEMPERATURES UNTIL THAT ENGINE TOO BLEW A HEAD GASKET.THE DEALERSHIP WILL NOT WARRANTY THE SECOND ENGINE ALTHOUGH IT ONLY HAS 67,000 MILES ON THE NEW ENGINE. AND NOW I AM LEFT WITH NO VEHICLE AND STILL OWE $6700.00 ON THE CHEVROLET CRUZE DUE TO THE FAULTY COOLANT SYSTEM.

WHILE DRIVING THE CAR ON AN OFF RAMP THE DISPLAY PANEL SHOWED 3 WARNING LIGHT, ABS, TRACTION CONTROL, AND BRAKE. THE COMMUNICATION PANEL, WHERE THE SPEED AND ALL COMMUNICATIONS ABOUT THE CAR ARE GIVEN, THEN SAID REDUCED ENGINE POWER AND MY CAR SLOWED DOWN AND MY POWER STEERING STOPPED WORKING. THE PANEL THEN ALSO SAID SERVICE STABILITRAK AND SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL. IT HAS HAPPENED MORE THAN ONCE SINCE I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE AND THE DEALER REPLACED THE THE ECM A FEW YEARS AGO AND IT HASN'T FIXED THE ISSUE AS IT STILL OCCURS. THE MOST RECENT EVENT HAPPENED LAST WEEK.

DRIVING LAST NIGHT FROM WORK TO HOME AT [XXX] AROUND 7PM, I STARTED GETTING MESSAGES IN MY CLUSTER SUCH AS SERVICE STABILITRAK, SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL AND ENGINE POWER IS REDUCED. JUST SUDDENLY MY CAR LOST ALL THE POWER AND THROTTLE WHEN I WAS TRAVELLING IN A HIGHWAY AROUND 70 MPH ON THE SECOND FASTEST LANE. IT WAS VERY SCARY AND DANGEROUS SITUATION ONCE MY THROTTLE WAS COMPLETE UNRESPONSIVE AND COULD FIND MYSELF AT THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY AT 5MPH . MY INSTINCT WAS TO TURN ON THE HAZARD LIGHTS AND TRY TO MOVE THE CAR TO THE SLOWEST LANE AS SAFE AS POSSIBLE. I FEEL LUCKY THAT NO ONE HIT ME IN THE BACK AND I CONSIDER THAT I WAS LUCKY TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM AT THIS TIME OF THE EVENING. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO TAKE THE EXIT [XXX] AND FROM THERE PARK THE CAR TO EVALUATE IT. I COULD NOT FIND ANY VISIBLE DEFECT EITHER INTERNALLY OR ON ENGINE COMPARTMENT. I TURNED OFF THE ENGINE AND ON SEVERAL TIMES AND STILL HAD THE SAME CLUSTER MESSAGES AND DERATED POWER. I WAS STILL ABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR SAFELY TO THE PARKING LOT OF [XXX] LOOKING FOR A SAFER PLACE TO WAIT FOR MY INSURANCE COMPANY. WHEN WAITING FOR THE AAA OPERATOR I WAS ABLE TO RE-START THE CAR WITH NO DISPLAY MESSAGE BUT ONLY WITH THE ENGINE CHECK LIGHT ON. I DROVE THE CAR IN THE PARKING LOT AND NOTICED THE CAR SEEMED TO BE OK. ONCE ON THAT TIME I WAS STILL WAITING FOR THE AAA OPERATOR I DECIDED TO TAKE [XXX] AND I WAS ABLE TO SAFE ARRIVE HOME. CHECKING THE SYMPTOM I HAD IN GOOGLE AND YOUTUBE I LEARNED ABOUT THE PROBLEM WITH THE NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE WHICH IS ALREADY KNOWN BY NHTSA AND GM. I HOPE MY INCIDENCE CAN BE INVESTIGATED AND A DECISION FOR RECALL BE TAKEN.I DON'T SEE ANY DIFFERENCE TO WHAT EXPERIENCED WITH THE IGNITION SWITCH TOPIC THEREFORE THIS ISSUE SHOULD BE CONSIDERED AS POTENTIAL RECALL. PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

THE WINDSHIELD WIPER LINKAGE FAILED VIA A BALL JOINT FAILURE IN THE WIPER MECHANISM. THIS CAUSED THE DRIVER SIDE WIPER TO BECOME FREE MOVING, STAYING ATTACHED TO THE CAR. WHEN IT FAILED, IT WOUND UP GETTING PINNED AGAINST THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR, FORCING ME TO EXIT THE VEHICLE VIA THE PASSENGER SIDE. THIS FAILURE OCCURRED WHEN I WAS DRIVING THROUGH WESTERN MD ON INTERSTATE 68 NEAR GRANTSVILLE, MD, DURING A LIGHT SNOW AND SALTING OPERATIONS WERE UNDERWAY. I WAS USING THE WIPERS AND WASHER FLUID TO KEEP THE WINDSHIELD CLEAR OF SALT. AFTER THIS FAILURE, I USED CABLE TIES TO TIE THE LOOSE WIPER ARM TO THE ATTACHED WIPER ARM, THEREFORE DISABLING MY WIPERS UNTIL WE GOT TO OUR DESTINATION, TWO HOURS FURTHER DOWN THE ROAD. I HAD TO STOP EVERY 10-15 MINUTES TO CLEAR THE SALT OFF OF THE WINDSHIELD. I REPLACED THE PART, BUT HAVE THE OEM PART AVAILABLE FOR INSPECTION, IF REQUESTED. I NOTICED THIS SPECIFIC PART WAS RECALLED ON THE 2013 CHEVROLET EQUINOX.

I CONTACTED CHEVROLET CUSTOMER SERVICE ON 1-10-18 AND SPOKE TO A SUPERVISOR. REITERATING CALL. THE VEHICLE HAS 35000 MILES ON IT. IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY BECAUSE OF PURCHASE DATE. ON 4 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED. #1) NOV 18 LIGHTS WERE ON, FLASHERS WERE ON AND RADIO WAS ON WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN THE GARAGE AND KEY WAS IN THE OFF POSITION #2) DEC 2018 SAME AS #1 #3) DEC 2018 VEHICLE WAS RUNNING WITH THE KEY IN THE OFF POSITION IN THE GARAGE. BY RUNNING I MEAN THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING AND EXHAUST FUMES WERE EVERYWHERE. #4) JAN 2019. SAME AS #3. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND COULD HAVE STARTED A FIRE OR CARBON DIOXIDE POISONING COULD'VE OCCURRED. THE REPRESENTATIVES TOLD ME THERE IS NO RECALLS WHICH I ALREADY KNEW AND STATED THEY WOULD NOT PAY FOR A REPAIR. I TOLD THEM ABOUT A SERVICE BULLETIN, THEY DENIED THERE WAS ONE. THERE ARE TWO NUMBERS PI1329(DATE 0CT 14) AND A NHTSA BULLETIN ( ID NUMBER 10114279) DATE OCT 14. I'D APPRECIATE YOUR PROMPT ATTENTION TO THIS SERIOUS MATTER AND WOULD LIKE THIS FIXED FOR FREE AT THE DEALER. CAN YOU CONTACT CHEVROLET AND TELL THEM THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL

COULD PUSH THE GAS PEDAL TO THE FLOOR AND IT WON'T ACCELERATE. PRESSING THE GAS WITH NORMAL PRESSURE MAKES THE RPM'S INCREASE VERY QUICKLY AND THE CAR EITHER WON'T ACCELERATE OR WILL ACCELERATE VERY SLOWLY. THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON PREVIOUSLY FOR TWO DAYS AND THEN SHUT OFF AND HASN'T COME BACK ON YET. I THINK IT IS THE TURBO. UNKNOWN CAUSE.

MARCH 2016. PROBLEM: CAR NOT ACCELERATING CORRECTLY, DIAGNOSIS: ACCELERATOR PEDAL POSITION SENSOR BROKEN MARCH 2018. PROBLEM: CAR OVERHEATING AND LOSING POWER OVER 40MPH, DIAGNOSIS: COOLANT HOSE BREAK MAY 2018. CAR OVERHEATING AND LOSING POWER OVER 40MPH, DIAGNOSIS: TRANSMISSION COOLER LINE BREAK JUNE 2018: PROBLEM: SPEDOMETER STARTED MALFUNCTIONING AND CAR BEGAN SPUTTERING ON HIGHWAY AT 65MPH, DIAGNOSIS: TRANSMISSION COMPUTER (INPUT AND OUTPUT SENSOR) FRIED JANUARY 2019. PROBLEM: COOLING DRAINING EXTREMELY FAST AND CAR MAKING GURGLING NOISE (AT ALL SPEEDS), DIAGNOSIS: WATER PUMP BREAK, THERMOSTAT BREAK, SERPENTINE BELT AND 5. JANUARY 2019: PROBLEM: OIL LEAK, DIAGNOSIS: TIMING COVER GASKET NEED REPLACEMENT

FOR SOME REASON WHEN I DRIVE MY CAR IT STARTS SHAKING SOMETIMES IT HAPPENS WHEN I START DRIVING OR WHEN I BRAKE I TRIED TO FIND THE PROBLEM AND IT LOOKS THAT IT IS THE DRIVE SHAFT. I THOUGH THAT IT IS SOMETHING THAT ONLY HAPPENED TO ME BUT I FOUND OUT THAT THERE ARE MORE CARS INVOLVED IN THAT BUT MY CHEVY CRUZE 2013 LOOKS LIKE IT IS NOT NOT ONE OF THOSE. WHAT CAN I DO ABOUT IT ?

MY CRUZE IS LEAKING OIL FROM THE OIL PUMP COOLER. I TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC SHOP AMD HAD IT DIAGNOSED. HE SAID THERE IS A NATIONWIDE BACKORDER FOR THE PART. HE FINALLY FOUND ONE BUT HE HAS TO DRIVE OVER AN HOUR AWAY TO GET IT. THEY HAVE ANOTHER CRUZE IN THE SHOP WITH THE SAME ISSUE. I AM JUST WONDERING WHY THERE ISNT A RECALL IF THE PART IS ON BACK ORDER NATIONWIDE? MY CAR HAS APPROXIMATELY 125,000 MILES ON IT AND I JUST PURCHASED IT A MONTH AGO. I KNEW THERE WAS AN OIL LEAK SOMEWHERE WHEN THERE WAS A FRESH PUDDLE OF OIL IN MY DRIVEWAY.

CAR IS HAVING TURBO PROBLEMS. NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR, BUT IT SHOWS A TURBO UNDERBOOST DEFECT. SAYS ONLINE IT IS COMMON AMONGST CHEVY CRUZES

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE ENGINE SHOOK AND THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT ALSO HEARD AN ABNORMAL NOISE COMING FROM THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO EVERYBODY RIDES AUTO SALES (4200 RIVERS AVE, NORTH CHARLESTON, SC, (843) 203-8888) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TURBO NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 122,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED MULTIPLE TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO GLENDORA CHEVROLET (1959 AUTO CENTRE DR, GLENDORA, CA 91740, (909) 474-7364) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DETERMINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 56,655.

WHILE MAKING RIGHT TURN IN CITY, CAR JERKED, ALMOST LOST CONTROL AND "SERVICE POWER STEERING" LIGHT CAME ON, THEN CAR RECOVERED AND WAS DRIVEN HOME

WIPER ASSEMBLY BROKE AND DEALER REPLACED ASSEMBLY AND MOTOR, 1 MONTH LATER NEW ASSEMBLY HAS BROKEN AGAIN, CAUSING WIPER ARMS TO FREEZE

FROM ONSTAR: P0087 THE ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION SYSTEM IS NOT PERFORMING AS EXPECTED. AN ISSUE HAS BEEN DETECTED IN THE ENGINE COOLING SYSTEM WHICH MONITORS AND CONTROLS ENGINE TEMPERATURE TO MAINTAIN OPTIMAL OPERATING TEMPERATURES AND AVOID OVERHEATING CONDITIONS. IF YOU ARE DRIVING UNDER NORMAL OPERATING CONDITIONS, PLEASE CHECK THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. IF THE NEEDLE IS IN THE RED WARNING AREA, THE ENGINE IS TOO HOT. PULL OFF THE ROAD, STOP THE VEHICLE, AND TURN OFF THE ENGINE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE SERVICE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE CONDITIONS: DRIVING 30MPH, ASPHAULT, WINTER WEATHER

WOW THIS IS THE BAD CAR EVER I HAVE A LOT FIRST AIR FLOW SENSOR BAD PVC VALVE 2 TIMES NEW

ENGINE OVERHEATING REGULAR MAINTENANCE PERFORMED EVERY 3,000 MILES COOLANT SYSTEM PLUGS REPLACED SPARK PLUGS REPLACED DIAGNOSTIC PERFORMED (FIRESTONE) DEALERSHIP INSPECTED EMISSIONS TEST PASSED CAR'S ONBOARD DISPLAY REPEATEDLY DISPLAYS "A/C OFF DUE TO HIGH ENGINE TEMPERATURE" AND "ENGINE OVERHEATING - IDLE ENGINE" WHEN NOT UNDER LOAD AND OCCURS AT REGULAR HIGHWAY (55-75MPH) AND CITY (30-45MPH) SPEEDS. CEL FLASHES (3-5 SECONDS OF INTERVAL FLASH) RANDOMLY - SPARK PLUGS REPLACED LAST OCCURANCE.

VEHICLE SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING LOSING COMPLETE POWER AND STEERING! SO DANGEROUS AND DEADLY! TAKING THE CAR IN TODAY, CAR ALSO RIDING ROUGH AND MISFIRING. ALL MAINTENANCE DONE EVERY 3,000 MILES. THIS CAR HAS HAD ONE PROBLEM AFTER ANOTHER AND THIS LAST ONE COULD HAVE KILLED MY TEENAGER DAUGHTER! IT STOPPED ON HER 5 TIMES ON THE FREEWAY!

EXACT SAME COOLANT SYSTEM PROBLEMS AS IN THE EARLIER MODEL CHEVY CRUZE RECALLS. FAULTY COOLANT SYSTEM, SPECIFICALLY A LEAKING WATER PUMP, INACCURATE THERMOSTAT AND LEAKING COOLANT FEED AND RETURN LINES TO THE TURBOCHARGER. SO FAR IT HAS COST ME CLOSE TO $1500 AT ONLY 110K MILES AND I STILL HAVE TO REPLACE THE BLOWN HEAD GASKET WHICH WAS THE RESULT OF THE COOLANT SYSTEM BEING UNABLE TO COOL THE ENGINE PROPERLY DUE TO THE BAD WATER PUMP. TOTAL LEMON, THIS WILL BE THE SECOND TIME THE HEAD GASKET IS BLOWN WITHIN TWO YEARS.

MY 2013 CHEVY CRUZE LT HAS AN ISSUE WITH THE TURBOCHARGER. IT APPEARS TO BE A VERY COMMON ISSUE AMONG CHEVY CRUZES. THE CODE I BELIEVE IT GIVES IS P0299. WHILE THE ACCELERATION AND POWER ALWAYS SEEMED OFF SINCE PRIOR TO THE INCIDENT, THE FIRST TIME THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON WAS AT ABOUT 71,400. I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AT THE TIME. HOWEVER, THERE HAVE BEEN OCCASIONS WHEN I'M GOING UPHILL AND DESPITE THE SUFFICIENT HORSEPOWER, IT WON'T ACCELERATE AS IT SHOULD. AS A RESULT, THE TURBOCHARGER ISSUE HAS CAUSED THE CAR TO GO MUCH SLOWER THAN THE SURROUNDING CARS WHILE GOING UPHILL, WHICH CLEARLY SEEMS TO ENDANGER THE DRIVER AND PASSENGERS AS WELL AS SURROUNDING CARS.

A/C OFF DUE TO EXTREME HIGH ENGINE TEMPERATURE CAM ON A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO, I TOOK IT IN AND IT WAS FIXED SUPPOSEDLY. A WEEK LATER IT CAME ON AGAIN. I HAVE TAKEN IT IN 4 TIME NOW. AS OF TODAY IT IS STILL IN THE SHOP. THEY HAD TO CALL THE MANUFACTURER FOR SOME HELP AND STILL, EVEN A NEW COMPUTER AND THE LIGHT STILL COMES ON. THIS IS GETTING TO BE TOO MUCH. I HAVE TO GO TO WORK.

THE CHEVY ECO CRUZE HAS BEEN GIVING ME PROBLEMS FROM THE START. I WAS DRIVING WITH THE AC ON AND CAME TO A SIGNAL LIGHT WHEN THE AC SHUTS OF & COMES BACK ON. ALSO AT THE SIGNAL LIGHT I THAUGHT I HAD GOTTEN A TAP FROM THE BACK FROM ANOTHER VEHICLE BECAUSE THE CAR JERKED. TURNED OUT NO CAR BEHIND ME BUT CAR STILL JERKS FORWARD WITH FOOT ALL THE WAY DOWN ON BRAKE PEDAL. NEXT IF I'M DRIVING AND SLOW DOWN TO MAKE, LET'S SAY A LEFT HAND TURN ONCE I MAKE THE TURN THE CAR IS SLUGGISH AS IF IT HAS TROUBLE PICKING UP SPEED. HAPPENS ALL THE TIME FROM A STOPPED POSITION OR IF I SLOW DOWN IT TAKES FOR EVER TO PICK UP MOMENTUM. MAKING IT SCAREY TO MERGE OR JUST BE ON THE ROAD. ALSO IF I TURN THE RADIO UP THE LIGHTS WILL DIE OR FADE SO I'VE REPLACED THE ALTERNATOR BUT IT STILL DOES IT. IVE CHECKED CONNECTIONS WIRES YOU NAME IT.

ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, AIR LEAK CAME FROM VALVE COVER. APPARENTLY THE COVER AND MANIFOLD WENT BAD. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL AND PERMANENT FIX ON THIS IMMEDIATELY. TOO MANY OF THESE CARS ARE BEING SOLD, TOO MUCH MONEY IS BEING MADE NOT TO HAVE A FIX FOR THIS. MY CAR IS 16,000 MILES OUT OF WARRANTY. RIDICULOUS!

VEHICLE DORMANT WATER INLET, DORMANT WATER OUTLET AND RESERVOIR HOSE ARE ALL FAULTY. CAR WILL LEAK COOLANT DUE TO ALL THREE ISSUES. THIS CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO OVERHEATAND BEGIN TO SLOW ON ITS OWN WITH NO REGARD FOR LOCATION OR THE DRIVER. I.E. SLOWING ON THE HIGHWAY PLACING THE DRIVER AT RISK. THE DORMANT WATER OUTLET IS MADE OF TWO PLASTIC MOLDINGS THAT ARE BONDED OR PRESSED TOGETHER LEAVING A SEEM WHERE HOSES CONNECT THESE SEEMS ARE WEEK AND SEEM TO BE THE MAIN SOURCE OF PEOPLES ISSUE INCLUDING MINE. ALONG WITH THE COOLANT ISSUE THE VALVE COVER PURGE VALVE IS FAULTY ALSO CAUSING EXHAUST TO NOT EXIT THE ENGINE UNDER CERTAIN PSI CAUSES SQUEAKING AND POOR THROTTLE RESPONSE ALSO WILL EVENTUALLY CAUSE THE PCV ITSELF TO FAULT OR BREAK.THIS ISSUE MAY BE THE SOURCE OF THE CAR PULLING WHILE STOPED AT A RED LIGHT CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO JERK FORWARD AND POSSIBLY MISFIRING THE ENGINE PISTONS. VEHICLE IS NOT WORTH THE VALUE PAID FOR. ALL ISSUE SEEM TO ARISE AFTER 36000 MILES AND AFTER 5 YEARS WHICH MEANS THESE MANUFACTURER DEFECTS ARE NOT COVERED BY THE WARRANTY. THERE ARE MORE ISSUES ASSOCIATED WITH THIS YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL. I AM SURE I WILL BE BACK HERE REPORTING MORE ISSUES. ANY HELP IS APPRECIATED BECAUSE IT SEEMS THAT ALL CHEVY WANTS IS MY MONEY AT THIS POINT.

THE VEHICLE WILL OCASSIONALLY NOT STOP WHEN PRESSURE IS APPLIED TO THE BRAKES. I HAVE NOTICED IT OCCURS MOST OFTEN WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN REVERSE. THE BRAKE PEDAL ALSO GETS HARD. IT DOES NOT OCCUR ALL THE TIME.

I WAS MAKING A LEFT TURN AND THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED AND THE RADIO TURNED OFF, I BARELY MADE IT BEFORE GETTING HIT. THE STEERING WHEEL UNLOCKED AND I TURNED INTO THE FIRST PLACE I COULD. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND TRIED TO START IT BUT THE BRAKE WAS LOCKED AND NOTHING WAS TURNING ON WHEN I PUSHED THE BUTTON. TRIED A FEW TIMES AND NOTHING. WHILE SITTING THERE FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES THE WHOLE DASH CAME ON AND I WAS ABLE TO START THE CAR. THE RADIO HAD BEEN TURNING ON AND OFF A FEW TIMES ON THIS DRIVE BEFORE THIS HAPPENED. BUT THE RADIO HAS BEEN DOING THIS FOR SOME TIME .

STEERING RANDOMLY COMPLETELY LOCKED IN MOTION. SEEMINGLY RANDOM ELECTRICAL PROBLEM REMEDIED ON ITS OWN AND REQUIRED SERVICE TECHNICIAN TO CHECK IT OUT TO ASSES SAFETY. CANT BE SURE OF THE SAFETY OF MY VEHICLE NOW.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, THE AIR BAG SENSOR INDICATOR ILLUMINATED WITHOUT WARNING, WHICH WAS A SAFETY CONCERN. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ED BOZARTH CHEVROLET (303-751-7500, LOCATED AT 2001 S HAVANA ST, AURORA, CO 80014) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE AIR BAG NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT A COST. THE TECHNICIAN DID NOT DISCLOSE THAT THERE WAS A RECALL; HOWEVER, THE CONTACT WAS LATER INFORMED OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V372000 (AIR BAGS). THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND OFFERED A TEN PERCENT DISCOUNT TOWARDS THE REPAIR COST. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 47,000.

INFERIOR PARTS! THERMOSTAT HOUSING HAS ALREADY BEEN REPLACED BY DEALER DUE TO CRACK. NOW, THE INTAKE MANIFOLD, FRONT CRANK SHAFT SEAL & COOLANT RESERVOIR NEED TO BE REPLACED AS WELL. CHECK VALVE ON INTAKE MANIFOLD IS BAD. CRANK SHAFT SEAL MAKES CHIRPING NOISE WHEN ENGINE IS RUNNING OR WHEN VEHICLE IS IN MOTION.

THE INTAKE MANIFOLD IS BAD ON A CAR THAT HAS 58,000 MILES ON IT. EVERY MECHANIC WE TOOK IT TOOK SAID IT'S A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR. THE CAR HAS NO GET UP AND GO AND IT IDLES HARD.

MODE DOOR ACTUATOR WILL NOT DIRECT AIR TO WINDSHIELD. THEREFORE WILL NOT DEFROST WINDSHIELD.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS UNDERGOING ROUTINE SERVICE, THE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC DISCOVERED COOLANT LEAKING FROM THE THERMOSTAT HOUSING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (KEYES CHEVROLET, 5949 VAN NUYS BLVD, VAN NUYS, CA) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE THERMOSTAT AND COOLANT PIPE SEAL NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE, BUT NO ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 33,000.

VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AND CAME TO A STOP IN THE STREET. SMOKE COMING FROM UNDERHOOD VERY HARD ALMOST LOOK TO BE ON FIRE. OIL SPILL EVERYWHERE. CAR IS IN SHOP NOW. THEY SAID IT IS A TURBO ISSUE, WHICH HE SAID IS VERY COMMON ON THE CRUZE. COULD CAUSE ENGINE DAMAGE.

I SMELLED GAS LEAKING AND WHEN I LOOKED UNDER THE HOOD WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING I SAW GAS SPRAYING THE BACK OF MY CAR. IT APPEARED TO BE LEAKING FROM THE HOSE WHERE THE CONNECTER WAS NEXT TO WHAT MAY BE THE FUEL FILTER. THIS CAR IS 5 YEARS OLD WITH 30,375 MILES. I WAS TOLD THE PART IS ON THE NATIONAL BACK ORDER LIST WITH NO IDEAL WHEN IT WILL BE AVAILABLE.

HI I WAS HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY TURBO AND I SEEN THAT GENERAL MOTORS HAD A RECALL IN 2014 ON CHEVY CRUZES TURBO I DIDN'T KNOW HAVE MY CAR AROUND THAT TIME AND I DON'T EVEN KNOW IF THERE WAS PREVIOUS OWNERS GOT THE RECALL BUT I READ ONLINE GENERAL MOTORS STOP SELLING THESE VEHICLES FOR A WHILE BECAUSE THE SAME ISSUES BUT THEY HAVE A RECALL ON IT'S THE SAME ISSUE I AM HAVING TROUBLE WITH ON MY 2013 CHEVY CRUZE AND THE CAR IS NOT BACK THAT BUY WARRANTY BECAUSE IT'S 6 YEARS OLD THE TURBO OF THE CAR HAS A WHOLE CAR SMOKING YOU TURN IT ON IT FEELS LIKE THE WHOLE CAR IS GOING TO BLOW UP JON HALL TO GET DIAGNOSTIC WHICH IS $100 BUT I HAD ALREADY GOT IT DONE GNOSTICS FROM AUTOZONE BUT JON HALL CHEVROLET DON'T GO BY ANOTHER DIAGNOSTIC WHICH BOTH CAME OUT TO THE SAME THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM THAT I AM HAVING GENERAL MOTORS BUT ALL THE VEHICLES ALL BUT BUT IT SEEMS AS IF CRUZES FELL THROUGH THE CRACKS IF YOU LOOK OUT ON THE ROAD THAT'S ALL YOU SEE IS TURBO CRUZES THE VEHICLE WAS SO EASY GIVING AWAY UNTIL EVERYBODY GOT ONE THE FAX SO I GUESS YOU JUST VICTIMS AT THE TIME I WAS JUST THANKFUL TO HAVE A CAR NO MATTER IF IT IS A 2013 THE PRICE TO FIX THAT TURBO IS RIDICULOUS JON HALL THEM CHARGE YOU FOR LABOR FEE 400 BUCKS I DON'T HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO EVEN GET TO THE TURBO NOW THAT MY CAR IS HAVING TURBO FAILURE

WHILE DRIVING A FEW TIMES CAR HAS STOPPED ON ME AND COUKD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT WHILE I WAS IN MOTION CAR JUST CEASED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE FAN UNDERNEATH THE HOOD CONTINUOUSLY RAN AND THE "AIR CONDITIONER OFF TO HIGH ENGINE TEMPERATURE" INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE THE THERMOSTAT AND THE COOLING SENSOR WERE REPLACED. THE FAILURE RECURRED SEVERAL TIMES. THE DEALER WAS NOT CALLED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 80,000. THE VIN WAS NOT PROVIDED.

FRONT TURN SIGNAL BULB LENS COVERS HAVE MELTED. DEALER CLAIMS HE HASN'T SEEN PROBLEM BEFORE AND WANTS $500 TO REPLACE ENTIRE HOUSING UNIT. HAS TO BE PLENTY OF THESE PROBLEMS OUT THERE.

2013 CHEVY CRUZE COLLIDED WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE GOING 30-40MPH HEAD ON. NO AIR BAGS WERE DEPLOYED . AIR BAG SERVICE LIGHT IS NOW ON.

TURNED ONTO A MAJOR HIGHWAY AND A CODE CAME ON AND THEN IT WOULDN'T ACCELERATE, MADE SOME WEIRD CLANKING NOISE, THE NOISE COMES AND GOES BUT IS LOUD, RPMS WERE HIGH. CAR HAS BEEN WELL MAINTAINED OIL CHANGES EVERY 3000 MILES. TOOK TO INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND PROBLEM WAS UNIDENTIFIED. CALLING DEALERSHIP IN THE MORNING.

CAR WOULDN'T START. GOT A "SERVICE STEERING COLUMN LOCK" ON THE DASH. WAS ABLE TO START THE CAR AFTER A PERIOD OF TIME. BUT ENGINE START AND STOP STILL SOUNDS BAD.

THE ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON AT 67,000 MILES, STRONG JERKING ACTION WHILE ACCELERATING. AT FIRST IT WAS DIAGNOSISED AS HAVING A BAD SENSOR, BUT I'VE TAKEN IT IN FOR REPAIRS NOW 6 TIMES AND I'VE HEARD ABOUT 4 DIFFERENT THINGS, EVERYTHING FROM "NO ISSUES", "BAD KNOCK SENSOR", "EMS SYSTEM ISSUE", "CARBON BUILD-UP ON THE PISTONS", "METAL SHAVINGS IN THE OIL" - IT'S OBVIOUS THAT NO ONE KNOWS WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT BUT IT OFTEN FEELS LIKE THE CAR IS ABOUT TO STALL IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSTATE. ALL PROPER SERVICE/MAINTENANCE HAS BEEN PERFORMED ON THE CAR.

I HAD MY SPARK PLUGS CHANGED THE DAY BEFORE ON THE 7/06/2018 AS I WAS DRIVING ON HIGHWAY TO TAKE MY GRANDDAUGHTER TO CENTRAL STATE UNIVERSITY MY CAR STARTED TO SOUND LIKE A BIRD WHEN I PRESS ON THE ACCELERATOR IT STARTED TO SINGING. SO I MADE IT BACK HOME, BUT SOUND IT HAD PICKED UP, SO I CALLED BACK TO MACHANIC AND THEY TOLD ME TO BRING IT BACK IN AND THEY CHECKED AND SAID IT WAS MY WATER PUMP I BELIEVE. BECAUSE OF WHERE IT WAS DRIPPING. THEY TOLD ME WHAT IT WILL COST TO GET IT FIXED, THEY TOLD ME TO KEEP SOME WATER IN AS WELL ANTIFREEZE. SO THAT WHAT I DID, BUT I DON'T HAVE MONEY TO GET IT FIXED RIGHT NOW. THE FIRST PICTURE IS WHAT THEY FIXED WHERE IT SHOWS THE SOLID BLACK CAP, THEY REPLACED A GASKET BUT I DON'T KNOW IF THEU SILLED RIGHT TO KEEP IT LEAKING OR SOMETHING BEHIND WHERE YOU PUT MOTOR OIL IN. THE PICTURE SHOWS WHERE IT IS DRIPPING DOWN.

I STARTED THAT THERE WAS A PART THEY FIXED AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT I IT IS CALLED, BUT THE BLACK CAP THAT IS DIRECTLY BEHIND THE AREA WHERE YOU PUT THE MOTOR OIL IS WHERE THEY SAID IT WAS OPENED (IT HAD A BUBBLE OR IT HAS SMALL PART OF THE RUBBLE HAD CAME UP. SO PUT A NEW ONE IT. NOT DEALERSHIP ANOTHER WELL KNOWN GARAGE MACHANIC WHO HAS BEEN IN BUSINESS OVER 25 YEARS. I TOOK IT TOOK AUTO ADVANCE AND THE SAID THAT THEY DIDN'T FINISH SEALING THE GASKET ON THIS AREA. I DON'T WHAT'S GOING ON WITH MY THERMOSTAT EITHER.

"TAKATA RECALL"- THE DASH LIGHTS CUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. THE STREERING WHEEL LOCKS UP WHILE THE CAR IN DRIVING AT 70MPH. MESSASGE ABOUT THE ELECTRICAL STABILITY CONTROL POPS UP.

TIRE MONITOR SYSTEM, I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THIS SYSTEM EVER SINCE I PURCHASED MY CAR. EVERY ATTEMPT TO FIX IT HAS BEEN UNSUCCESSFUL. WHEN THE DEALERSHIP RESETS IT, IT GOES WONKY AND DISPLAYS INCORRECT INFO ABOUT TIRE PRESSURE AND LOCATION OF TIRE WITH THAT PRESSURE. IT RECENTLY SHOWED THAT ONE OF MY TIRES HAD A NO DISPLAY READING AND A "SERVICE TIRE MONITOR SYSTEM" ALERT. AND WHEN I TOOK IT IN FOR SERVICING, THEY TOLD ME ITS NOT COVERED BY ANY WARRENTY (WHICH I HAVE THE EXTENDED WARRENTY). THIS SEEMS TO ME TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE AS IT IS APPARENTLY IMPORTANT TO THE SYSTEM TO DISPLAY IT ON MY SERVICING SCREEN (AND AFFECTS MY GAS MILEAGE THAT AFFECTS MY EMISSIONS)! SO WHY ISN'T IT COVERED BY THE MANUFACTURES WARRENTY? WHY HAVE IT THERE AT ALL THEN!?PERHAPS IT IS A JOB SECURITY THING JUST TO BRING IN REVENUE. ITS B***S*** I THINK!!!

SECOND COOLANT LEAK IN TWO MONTHS

MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON, SO I TOOK IT IN AND THEY SAID THE VALVE COVER NEEDED TO BE REPLACE. THE COST WAS $280.00 TO REPLACE IT. WHEN STARTING THE CAR THERE IS A LOUD CLANKING NOISE. THIS ONLY HAPPENS WHEN STARTING THE CAR. WE THOUGHT REPLACING THE VALVE COVER WOULD CORRECT THIS ISSUE, BUT IT DID NOT. THE CAR STILL HAS A REALLY LOUD CLANKING NOISE. ONCE THE CAR IS MOVING IT DRIVES FINE. (MANUAL SHIFT CAR) HOWEVER OUR FEARS ARE THAT IF SOMETHING BREAKS WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY, THAT IT COULD CAUSE ENGINE LOSS OR WORSE FREEZE IN THE MIDDLE OF CARS DRIVING 75MPH AND CAUSE A SEVER ACCIDENT. CAN Y'ALL PLEASE CHECK INTO THIS AND LET ME KNOW IF THERE HAS BEEN ANY RECALLS WITH THIS ISSUE?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE AIR BAGS ERRONEOUSLY DEPLOYED AFTER DRIVING OVER AN OBJECT IN THE ROAD. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER (COLUMBIA CHEVROLET, 9750 MONTGOMERY RD., CINCINNATI, OHIO), BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH IN INCLEMENT WEATHER, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS BECAME INOPERABLE WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO JEFF WYLER EASTGATE AUTO MALL (1117 OH-32, BATAVIA, OH 45103, (513) 752-3447) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 99,000.

MY CAR KEEPS SAYING AC TURNING OFF DUE TO ENGINE OVERHEATING BUT THE ACTUAL CAR IS NOT OVERHEATING, BUT THE COOLANT IN THE RESERVOIR IS BOILING AND LEAVING THE COMPARTMENT QUICKLY. WHEN I DRIVE A WHILE, I CAN SEE STEAM COMING FROM THE SIDE WHERE THE COOLANT IS LOCATED AND IT IS BOILING ONCE I OPENED IT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN, THE 'AIR CONDITIONER TURNING OFF DUE TO HIGH ENGINE TEMPERATURE' WARNING MESSAGE ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE THERMOSTAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. CURRIE MOTORS CHEVROLET (8401 ROOSEVELT RD, FOREST PARK, IL 60130, (708) 771-2600) WAS CONTACTED, BUT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 77,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL FAILED TO ILLUMINATE. THE CONTACT PULLED OVER ONTO THE SHOULDER AND TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (BUD CHEVROLET BUICK IN ST MARYS, OHIO, 419-954-0649) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DRIVER ASSIST MODULES IN THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE WERE FAULTY AND CAUSED THE BLACKOUT ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. ON ANOTHER OCCASION, WHILE PULLING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND FELT VERY STIFF. THE SAME DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE VACUUM PUMP NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE FAILURES WERE BEING REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 72,000. *TT

I BOUGHT A 2013 CHEVY CRUZE A YEAR AGO. THE BRAKES FAIL WHEN CAR IS IN REVERSE AND THE BRAKE PEDAL GETS HARD. IT HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY BUT I'VE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TWICE AND THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. I'M AFRAID FOR MY SON TO CONTINUE TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE. THERE ARE NO RECALLS BUT AN INTERNET SEARCH SAYS THERE ARE MANY BRAKE PROBLEMS WITH ALL CRUZES. NOT HAPPY I MADE THIS PURCHASE AND WILL BE TRADING THIS IN IF THE NEXT SERVICE APPT DOESNT FIND ANYTHING WRONG.

TAKATA RECALL VERY HARD SHIFTING AND CLUNKING NOSE WHEN SHIFTING

COOLANT HOSE LEAK RUPTURED WITHOUT CAUSE OR WARNING CAUSING ENTIRE HOSING SYSTEM TO EXPLODE AND CAR OVERHEATED OBVIOUSLY WHILE DRIVING. IT RESULTED IN THERMOSTAT AND HOUSING ALONG WITH ADDITIONAL COOLANT HOUSING TO BE REPLACED ABOUT A MONTH AGO. NOW MY CAR IS BELLOWING WHITE SMOKE AND IDLING FUNNY AND I FIND OUT I'VE BLOWN A GASKET. MY VIN ISN'T LISTED BUT I SEE OTHER CHEVYS WITH THIS SAME COOLANT HOSE WEAKNESS ISSUE AS MINE. APPEARS THERE ARE MORE THAN JUST THOSE LISTED. EXTREMELY COSTLY REPAIR. ALSO HAVE SIMILAR ISSUE WITH THE FUEL INJECTION/TAKE OFF WITH NO POWER AND SLOW TO GO WHICH HAS ALMOST BEEN DEADLY IN HIGHWAY TRAFFIC. WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER CHEVY.

CAR LOOSES SPEED CAN'T GIVE IT GAS HAS NO PULL! ONCE YOU TAKE IT OUT OF GEAR AND PUT BACK IN DRIVE, WORKS FINE. LIGHTS FLICKER ON AND OFF, ON RADIO. BOUGHT CAR IN FEBRUARY WITH 49.000 MILES ON IT DROVE TO STORE CAME BACK OUT OF STORE CAR WAS COMPLETELY DEAD! MADE NO SOUND, CHECKED BATTERY EVERYTHING, 5 MIN LATER STARTED RITE UP. THIS CAR DOES NOT FEEL SAFE TO ME, I WISH I COULD RETURN IT.

OK SO I NEEDED A NEW CAR AND WENT AND ENDED UP AT A NICE LOOKING USED CAR LOT AND FINANCED A 2013 CHEVY CRUZE LT. SINCE PURCHASING THE CAR. (AT THIS MOMENT I'VE ONLY HAD THE CAR FOR 23 DAYS) I HAD THE CAR LOOKED OVER BY MY MECHANIC AND EVERYTHING LOOKED GOOD AND FINE. AND SINCE DAY 1 THESE ARE THE RECALLS THAT HAVE BEEN MADE ON THIS VEHICLE BUT NOT FOR MY VIN BUT IS HAPPENING WITH THE CAR IN ORDER FROM WHEN FIRST NOTICED. FIRST I WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT AND THE CAR JERKED FORWARD AND HONESTLY SCARED ME AS IT FELT LIKE I HAD JUST BEEN HIT BY THE CAR BEHIND ME. ( WHICH WASNT THE CASE AS I GOT OUT TO CHECK). WELL THEN AFTER A FEW DAYS IM ON THE INTERSTATA AND DECIDED TO USE THE SPEED CONTROL, AT FIRST IT WAS JUST LIKE YOU WOULD EXPECT IT TO BE BUT AFTER NOT EVEN 5 MINUTES THE CAR STARTS ACTING LIKE IN TAPPING AND RELEASING THE GAS AND WILL NOT STOP UNLESS SPEED CONTROL IS TURNED OFF OR STOPPED. SO THEN I RUN OVER A NAIL AND GO TO REPLACE THE TIRE AND THE MECHANIC LOOKS OVER THE CAR AGAIN AND BRING AN OIL LEAK TO MY ATTTENTION FROM THE OIL PAN AND SHOWN VISIBLE OIL ON THE GASKET. (ALREADY UNDER MY LIMITED DEALER WARRANTY). SO SINCE THEN I HAVE CHECKED THE OIL EVERY DAY JUST TO BE SURE IM NOT RUNNING LOW AND IT WASNT LOW. WELL LIKE A WEEK LATER I MAKE A DRIVE I HAVE ACTUALLY MADE IN THIS CAR ABOUT 6 TIMES ALREADY TO HAVE LUNCH WITH A FRIEND AND WHEN I GET THERE TURN THE CAR OFF AND THEN THE FRIEND IS 10 MIN AWAY SO I RESTART THE CAR FOR THE AC. DIDNT HAVE THE CAR BACK ON FOR 2 MIN AND THE CAR STARTED BEEPING WITH ENGINE OVERHEAT WARNING. TURNED THE CAR OFF AND POPPED HOOD TO CHECK AND FROM THE OVERHEATING I GUESS THERE WAS PRESSURE ON THE HOSE IT JUST POPPED THE HOSE FROM THE CLAMP AND COOLANT WENT EVERY WHERE. HAD BEEN AWAY FROM THE CAR AND CAR WAS COOLED AND ADDED MORE COOLANT TO IT. AND EVERYTHING IS FINE. WELL THEN THE NEXT NIGHT OUT OF NO WHERE THE HEAD GASKET BLEW

WHEN CAR IS RUNNING THERE IS A KNOCKING AND WHINING UNDER THE HOOD AND THEN WHEN DRIVING THE CAR JERKS OR BOGGLED DOWN LIKE IT'S ABOUT TO DIE. TODAY THE 'SERVICE STABILITRAK' LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CAR BECAME WORSE WITH THE JERKING AND WHEN AT A RED LIGHT THE CAR DIED. I RESTARTED THE CAR AND IT IS PUSH TO START BUT SOUNDED ALMOST FLOODED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE REVERSING OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, BUT FAILED TO ENGAGE. IN ORDER TO STOP THE VEHICLE, THE EMERGENCY BRAKE HAD TO BE APPLIED. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (DAY'S CHEVROLET, 3693 COBB PARKWAY NW, ACWORTH, GA 30101, 678-269-6042) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,930. *TT

THERE WAS A RECALL ON 2013-2014 CHEVY CRUZ TURBOS WITH CERTAIN VIN NUMBERS. I OWN A 2013 CHEVY CRUZE, WITH THE EXACT ENGINE (1.4L TURBO ENGINE). MY TURBO IS GOING (THE EXACT SAME ISSUE WITH THE RECALLED PART FOR THE OTHER CHEVY CRUZE'S), BUT MY VIN ISN'T INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. I WANTED TO REACH OUT TO SEE IF THE RECALL WASN'T EXPANSIVE ENOUGH. IT SEEMS STRANGE THAT MY LESS-THAN-60,000 MILE, 5 YEAR OLD CAR HAS THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM AS OTHER CARS BUILT WITH THE SAME ENGINE / YEAR, AND THAT THE PROBLEMS AREN'T RELATED. IT'S $1600 TO FIX, AND IF IT WAS A DEFECT FROM THE MANUFACTURER, THAT SEEMS LIKE AN UNFAIR AMOUNT TO PAY. THE ISSUE HASN'T INCAPACITATED THE CAR YET; IT WAS DIAGNOSED THROUGH A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON MY CAR WHEN I WAS GETTING A TIRE FIXED AT THE DEALERSHIP.

THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN GOING TO ANTI THEFT MODE AND TOOK IT IN THEY FOUND COOLANT RESERVOIR LEAKING THERMOSTAT LEAKING ALONG WITH THE DRIVE BELT HAS COOLANT ON IT CAUSING IT TO SQUEAK ACCORDING TO CHEVROLET CAR SEEMS LIKE WHEN I'M DRIVING IT IT FEELS LIKE ITS MOVING FWD ON IT'S ON WHEN I HAVE MY FOOT ON BRAKE AT A COMPLETE STOP. MY CAR IS AT 143,000 MILES ON IT

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO OVERHEAT AND "AIR CONDITIONER TURNING OFF DUE TO VEHICLE OVERHEATING" DISPLAYED. THE CONTACT PARKED THE VEHICLE, OPENED THE HOOD TO ALLOW THE ENGINE TO COOL DOWN, AND ADDED COOLANT. THE VEHICLE DROVE NORMALLY THE NEXT DAY, BUT OVERHEATED AGAIN DURING THE EVENING HOURS. WHEN THE FAILURE RECURRED, THE STABILIZER INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS UNABLE TO RESTART AND WAS TOWED TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED. THE CONTACT RESEARCHED THE FAILURE ONLINE AND FOUND NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V452000 (POWER TRAIN) AS A POSSIBLE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE, BUT THE VIN WAS EXCLUDED FROM THE RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 110,357.

THE SHOP ALSO INFORMED ME THAT IF I WANTED THE COOLANT SYSTEM FIXED AND IT IS ON RECALL THAT THEY WOULD FIX AROUND THE COOLANT SYSTEM ...SEND THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP TO REPAIR THE RECALL AND SEND THE CAR BACK TO THEM TO FINISH REPAIRS. I HAVE ONLY HAD THE CAR 4 YEARS AND WHEN I PURCHASED IT THE CAR ONLY HAD 10000 MILES AND FOR THIS TO HAPPEN THIS EARLY IN A CAR IS A PROBLEM.

HELLO, THIS SUNDAY MY 2013 CHEVY CRUZE WHILE DRIVING AN ALERT CAME UP SAYING THAT ENGINE POWER REDUCED AND OTHER NOTICES. THE RESULT WAS THAT THE CAR LOST POWER. THANKFULLY I WAS ON A SIDE STREET AT THE TIME AT A SLOW SPEED. MOST OF MY DRIVING IS ON THE HIGHWAY AND IF THIS WOULD HAVE OCCURRED AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS WHICH DID OCCUR TO SOME PEOPLE WHO POSTED ON CHEVY FORUMS IT COULD BE FATAL. GM WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THIS ISSUE AND WOULD NOT COVER THE COST TO REPAIR IT. THERE ARE MANY DISCUSSIONS ABOUT THIS ISSUE AT THIS GOOGLE SEARCH HTTPS://WWW.GOOGLE.COM/SEARCH?Q=CHEVY+CRUZE+THROTTLE+BODY+REDUCED+POWER&OQ=CHEVY+CRUZE+THROTTLE+BODY&AQS=CHROME.1.69I57J69I59J0L4.5323J0J7&SOURCEID=CHROME&IE=UTF-8 I FEEL LIKE GM SHOULD TAKE CARE OF THIS AND A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED SO THAT THIS DOES NOT CAUSE SERIOUS ACCIDENTS FOR OTHERS. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).' *PM

THE DEALER SAYS THAT THE RIGHT CV JOINT IS LEAKING. ALSO MY STEERING WHEEL HAS A SMALL CATCH IN IT WHEN WE ARE DRIVING, WONDERING IF THESE ARE RELATED?

THE DEFROST DOESN'T WORK ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. WHEN I TURN THE SETTINGS TO DEFROST, THE FACE VENTS TURN ON FULL POWER. IVE TRIED ALL OF THE DIFFERENT SETTINGS (FACE, FEET, FACE AND FEET, DEFROST AND FEET, ETC) AND THE DEFROST WONT WORK ON ANY OF THEM. THIS CAUSES MY WINDOW TO FOG UP AND ICE OVER ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. WHILE IM DRIVING! ITS NOT ONLY ANNOYING , IT'S EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND UNSAFE WHEN DRIVIG DURING THE WINTER MONTHS. THERE IS NOTHING IN THE VENTS. I CHECKED. I TRIED TO TAKE PICTURES TO SHOW HOW I HAVE NO VISIBILITY. IT'S ALOT WORSE IN PERSON.

DRIVING AND WHEN I HIT A BUM THE CAR STARTED TO GO SLOWLY

ENGAGE BRAKES AND THEY GRAB THEN RELEASE PULSATES CANT SEEM TO STOP ON ROADS LAST 2 TIMES LITTLE SNOW IN MOTION SLOW JUST STARTED DOING THIS CAR ACTS LIKE ITS JUMPING UP AND DOWN WHEN TRYING TO BRAKE ALSO NOTED REAR BRAKE LITE IN DARK IS FLICKERING WHEN I APPLY THE BRAKE PEDAL WHEN SITTING

THE RIGHT FRONT HALF SHAFT MAY FRACTURE AND SEPARATE WHILE DRIVING, POTENTIALLY CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO LOSE POWER AND COAST TO A STOP

I AM WRITING ASKING FOR YOU TO LOOK INTO WHAT I CALL ENDANGERING TO MOTORIST IN OUR STATE, MORE SO OF A DANGER TO ME. I AM FORCED TO DRIVE W/ SOMETHING CONNECTED TO MY BODY, VEHICLE, OR ANYTHING THEY CAN POSSIBLY CONNECT TO A TOOL UTILIZED BY OUR LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES. THE TOOL IS USED TO DO UNDERCOVER WORK/INVESTIGATIONS WHICH I WAS TOLD IT'S USED BY SPECIAL INVESTIGATIONS FOR THE POLICE DEPARTMENT. AS I AM DRIVING, I HAVE TO TELL THEM WHILE DRIVING NOT TO PUT THAT ON MY CAR, MOVE THAT OFF MY BRAKES (WHICH SOMETIMES MY VEHICLE WOULDN'T STOP I HAD TO PRESS DOWN ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR FOR IT TO STOP AND MY BRAKES AREN'T BAD, THEY EVEN HAVE SOMETHING SETUP TO WHEN I AM BREAKING, SLOWING DOWN AND ABOUT TO TURN THAT IT LOCKS UP MY BREAKS AND CAUSES THE CARE TO DO SOMETHING LIKE A JERK THING OR INSTANT STOP, THEY HAVE MOVED IT TO THE BACK OF MY CAR WHICH MOVES THE OPPOSITE WAY MY VEHICLE IS BEING STEERED AND IT SPINS OUT ONLY ON ONE TIRE). THEY HAVE CREATED AN ILLEGAL SETUP WHICH HAS DAMAGED MY VEHICLE THAT'S BEING REPAIRED TODAY. WHEN DRIVING THEY PLACE IT MY BRAKES WHICH SOMETIMES DON'T STOP, THEY HAVE OTHERS DRIVING AT THE SAME TIME AS I AM AND IT EFFECTS THE DRIVING OF OTHERS, THEY MOVE MY VEHICLE WHICH IS STEERED THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION I AM CONTROLLING IT, IT CAN CAUSE YOU TO CRASH, IT'S HUGE DISTRACTION. THE OTHER MOTORIST ON THE ROAD AS I AM HAVE TRIED HELPING SOME HAVE ADMITTED TO DRIVING W/ THIS CONNECTED TO THEM PURPOSELY AND ARE TO INTENTIONALLY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT, THEY SAID IT'S A "GAME". WITH THE HELP OF SOME FROM THE LITTLE ROCK POLICE DEPARTMENT, AND FBI THEY ARE GIVEN THE WHERE ABOUT OF CERTAIN INDIVIDUALS AND THEY ARE TO CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. THE SETUP ALONE CAN CAUSE YOU TO CRASH. I HAVE MOTORIST WHO SPOKE UP AND TRIED HELPING ME AS I AM ON THE HIGHWAY AND THOSE WHO ARE CONTROLLING IT, WHICH ARE INDIVIDUALS WHO WORK FOR OUR LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE IN FRONT ABRUPTLY STOPPED CAUSING THE CONTACT TO CRASH INTO THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THERE WERE NO INJURIES SUSTAINED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO BETTEN BAKER CHEVROLET BUICK DEALER LOCATED AT 930 O'MALLEY DR, COOPERSVILLE, MI 49404 WHERE THE AIR BAG FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE DETERMINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 34,897.

MY OIL FEED LINE MELTED AND NOW OIL IS EVERYWHERE. I'M CONFUSED ON WHY THEY WOULD MAKE SOMETHING OUT OF PLASTIC BUT HAVE HOT PRESSURIZED OIL FLOW THROUGH IT.

I WAS STOPPED IN HIGHWAY TRAFFIC AND REAR-ENDED (I'VE ATTACHED THE CRASH REPORT FROM THE IN STATE POLICE). MY SEAT BELT DID NOT ENGAGE AND MY AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY CAUSING ME TO HIT MY HEAD ON THE STEERING WHEEL RESULTING IN ABRASIONS AND TWO BLACK EYES. THIS SEEMS TO BE EITHER A SERIOUS DESIGN PROBLEM OR A MANUFACTURER DEFECT. REGARDLESS, THE SENSORS THAT CAUSE THE SEAT BELT TO LOCK SHOULD NOT BE IN THE FRONT OF THE CAR AS THEY THEN PROVIDE NO PROTECTION FROM A REAR END COLLISION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. THE CONTACT NOTICED A LEAK COMING FROM THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CHEVROLET OF SPARTANBURG (1051 ASHEVILLE HWY, SPARTANBURG, SC 29303) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE FAILURE WAS NORMAL. THE DEALER STATED THAT COOLANT WAS LEAKING INTO THE RELEASE VALVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 76,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH, THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED WITHOUT WARNING.

I HAVE A LEAK IN MY COOLANT SYSTEM. SINCE I'VE GOTTEN THE CAR IN OCTOBER 2016, I'VE EXPERIENCED A WEIRD BURNING SMELL, BEFORE I HAD EVEN DISCOVERED WHAT THE ISSUE WAS. IN JUNE 2017, MY ENGINE OVERHEATED DUE TO A MALFUNCTION IN MY COOLANT SYSTEM. AS A RESULT, I HAD MY COOLANT FLANGE REPLACED. A FEW DAYS LATER, MY CAR BEGAN TO SMOKE AND MY ENGINE WENT IDLE. THE COOLANT LEAKS FROM THE FLANGE AND THE RESERVOIR OFTEN. SOMETIMES, IT LEAKS AS I DRIVE, OTHER TIMES, IT'LL BE PARKED AND LEAK OUT WHEN IDLE. I NEVER USE MY AIR CONDITIONING OR HEAT ANYMORE DUE TO THE BURNING SMELL OF THE COOLANT. I HAD MY COOLANT FLANGE REPLACED A SECOND TIME. MY CAR WAS DOWN FOR 3 MONTHS AND I JUST GOT IT REPAIRED AGAIN. LAST WEEK, OCTOBER 10, 2017, MY CAR BEGAN TO SMOKE AGAIN, MY ENGINE WENT IDLE, AND WHEN I POPPED THE HOOD, THE COOLANT HAD LEAKED OUT COMPLETELY. ANY TIME IT HAS OVERHEATED AND THE ENGINE WHEN IDLE, I'VE BEEN ON THE FREEWAY, DRIVING AT LEAST 60 MPH OR ON THE STREET, DRIVING AT LEAST 30 MPH. MORE RECENTLY, WHEN IT OVERHEATED, THE CAR HAD BEEN IDLE FOR 2 HOURS AND THEN 5 MINS INTO ME DRIVING IT, IT HAPPENED. I WAS DRIVING DOWN A DARK HIGHWAY, GOING ABOUT 25 MPH. BEFORE THE ENGINE OVERHEATED, I HAD 65% OIL LIFE AND AFTERWARDS, I HAD 0% OIL LIFE. MY UNCLE HAD JUST ADDED COOLANT TO MY RESERVOIR THE DAY BEFORE, BUT IT LEAKED OUT COMPLETELY. LUCKILY, I WAS NOT ALONE THIS TIME. I'M ALWAYS CAUTIOUS THAT MY ENGINE WILL BLOW OUT WHEN I DRIVE IT. MY MECHANIC INFORMED ME TO BE SURE THAT I ALWAYS HAD COOLANT AND WATER IN MY TRUNK AT ALL TIMES, IN CASE IT LEAKS OUT. I TRAVEL 40 MINS TO WORK EVERY OTHER DAY AND IT'S QUITE FRIGHTENING, KNOWING THAT AT ANY TIME, MY ENGINE MAY OVERHEAT AGAIN, DUE TO THE COOLANT LEAK. I'M ALMOST POSITIVE THAT THERE'S A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE, BUT I NEED CONFIRMATION. I HAVE NOT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE, BUT I'VE DONE RESEARCH..

AFTER DRIVING I PARK AND REMOVED THE KEY, THE ENGINE TURN ON AND 2 SECONDS TURNS OFF, I MENTION TO MY BOSS, AND MY 12YRS OLD SON WE GOT SCARED I THOUGH SOME SPELL OR SOMETHING.STILL DOES THAT 3 TIMES OF MONTH

CAR HAS CONSISTENT COOLANT LEAK. VEHICLE CONTINUES TO OVERHEAT.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLES MOTOR LOOSES POWER. THE ELECTRONICS STAY ON BUT THE ENGINE IS SHUT OFF. ONLY HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING, IT HAS HAPPENED ONCE ON THE HIGHWAY GOING APPROX. 65MPH, ANOTHER TIME WHILE GOING 55MPH ON A 2 LANE COUNTRY ROAD, ONCE WHILE GOING 10MPHIN A PARKING LOT AND ANOTHER WHILE BACKING OUT OF DRIVE WAY AT APPROX. 5MPH. EACH TIME IT HAS HAPPENED THE VEHIVLE HAS BEEN IN MOTION, GOING STRAIGHT.

NEEDS RECALLS MAILED TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED HAS 50380 MILES CANNOT FIND THE PARTS TO REPAIR IT

DRIVER WINDSHIELD WIPER JUST STOP WORKING WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY IN THE RAIN.

ENGINE COOLANT THERMOSTAT SENSORS. I HAVE REPLACED IT TWICE IN 2 MONTHS. I HAVE FOUND NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS OF THE SAME SORT ALL OVER THE INTERNET WITH MANY MODEL YEARS OF THE CAR I HAVE. THINGS JUST DON'T GO BAD THAT SOON UNLESS THERE IS A SIGNIFICANT ELECTRICAL OR ENGINE ISSUE. I SEE NO RECALLS FOR MY YEAR ON ANYTHING AND I FIND IT HARD 1 YEAR MODEL HAS NO RECALL ISSUES.

IN PARK AT RANDOM TIMES THE SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL AND SERVICE STABILITRAK LIGHT WILL COME ON. THE CAR IS REAL SLUGGISH AT TAKE OF, I CAN NOT LEAVE A STOP SIGN WITH A CAR ANY LESS THAN 40-50 CAR LINKS AWAY WITHOUT FEAR OF GETTING HIT. WHEN THE SPEED FINALLY STARTS TO PICK UP IT SHIFTS ROUGH AT TIMES. THE CAR ALSO FEELS LIKE IT IS JUMPING WHEN IN DRIVE AND HOLDING THE BRAKE.

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM THE STORE AND THE "SERVICE POWER STEERING" LIGHT CAME ON AND I LOST POWER STEERING. THE STABILITRAK LIGHT WAS ALSO ON. IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO STEER THE CAR HOME. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND THEY TELL ME THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. THEY ARE GOING TO KEEP IT ANOTHER DAY TO SEE IF THEY CAN MAKE THE CODE COME UP, BUT IF IT DOESN'T THEN I GET TO DRIVE A CAR THAT CAN CRASH BECAUSE OF POWER STEERING FAILURE. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TO HAVE THE STEERING GO OUT WHILE DRIVING. GM NEEDS TO FIND OUT WHY THIS IS HAPPENING AND FIX IT.

I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR IN WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THEY SAID IT WAS DUE TO A OIL CAP. I CALLED AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. SINCE THEN THE ENGINE LIGHT HAS BEEN ON AND OFF AND NOW THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT IS ON AND THE ENGINE REVS VERY HIGH.

MY CHEVY CRUZE STABILITY TRACK CONTROL SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONS AND MY CAR LOSES POWER AND I LOSE STEERING CONTROL AND MUST PULL OVER ON THE FREEWAY. IT HAS HAPPENED 5 TIMES. PLUS MY STEREO GOES OUT. MY CHEVY DEALER SAID IT IS NOT COVERED BECAUSE MY WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED. MUST PAY OVER $400 TO REPAIR THE FAULTY INDICATOR. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY PROBLEM BECAUSE IT CAN HAPPEN WHEN I AM ON THE FREEWAY GOING 65 MPH AND MY CAR DECELERATES DOWN TO 40 MPH AND I COULD CRASH? IT HAS HAPPENED TWICE ON THE FREEWAY AND THREE TIMES ON THE CITY STREET.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 15 MPH, THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (LOWEST PRICE TRANSPORTATION NETWORK IN PLANTATION, FL) WHERE THE TECHNICIAN REFERRED THE VEHICLE TO AN UNKNOWN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO REPAIR THE AIR BAG ISSUE; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. ADDITIONALLY, THE CYLINDER HEAD GASKET BLEW UP. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A CHEVROLET DEALER IN BELLEGLADE, FLORIDA WHERE THE ENGINE WAS REPAIRED AFTER TWO MONTHS. THE FAILURE RECURRED AND THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO THE BANK. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 100,000.

AIR CONDITIONING IS NOT WORKING CORRECTLY. IT BLOWS WELL BUT WILL NOT COOL. I CAN FEEL SOME COOLNESS OUT OF PASSENGER SIDE BUT DRIVER SIDE IS HOT AIR. IF YOU TURN THE FAN KNOB TO LOW THEN BOTH SIDES WILL COOL BUT IT IS NOT ENOUGH TO COOL ANYTHING. HAVE HAD IT CHECKED AND THERE IS PLENTY OF COOLANT. IT STARTED JULY OF 2016 SO I DROVE IT VERY LITTLE IT IS MUCH WORSE THIS SUMMER JULY OF 2017. ITS THE SAME RESULT DRIVING OR STATIONARY. IN THE EARLY MORNING IF IT'S COOL OUTSIDE IT DOES GET COOLER BUT AS THE DAY GETS WARMER SO DOES THE AIR COMING OUT OF THE AIR CONDITIONING VENTS.

HEATER HAS A VERY STRONG ODOR OF COOLANT WHEN TURNED ON THAT I HAVE TO KEEP MY CAR WINDOWS DOWN A LITTLE WHEN USING HEATER. I NOTICED THIS WHEN I ACQUIRED IT FROM MY SON IN JULY OF 2016. HE HAD PURCHASED THIS ONE AND ANOTHER ONE AT THE SAME TIME BRAND NEW IN 2013 AND HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH BOTH CARS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE DRIVING 18 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED AND THE WRENCH WARNING SENSOR INDICATOR ILLUMINATED.

SINCE PURCHASING MY CAR IT HAS DONE STRANGE THINGS WITH WHAT I THOUGHT WAS THE BREAKS. WHEN STOPPING AT A LIGHT ETC.. THE CAR WILL JUMP FORWARD.. SOMETIMES ONLY ONCE AND OTHERS IT DOES IT OVER AND OVER UNTIL I ACCELERATE AGAIN. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED IT. DAVID MAUS IN SANDFORD FL. THE SERVICE TECH TOOK A RIDE WITH ME.. HE STATED THAT HE'S HEARD THIS FROM OTHER CHEVY CRUZE OWNERS AND IT'S JUST WHAT THESE CARS DO. IT DID DEMONSTRATE THE JUMPING, THRUSTING FORWARD WHILE THE SERVICE TECH WAS DRIVING. I WAS NOT HAPPY WITH THIS ANSWER BUT BELIEVED HE KNEW WHAT HE WAS TALKING ABOUT. YESTERDAY I GET IN MY CAR AND IT WILL HARDLY GO. THE SERVICE STABILTACK LIGHT WAS ON. THEN EVERY LIGHT ON THE DASH CAME ON. OBVIOUSLY I UNDERSTAND THINGS GO BAD ON CARS AS IT'S 4 YEARS OLD. BUT AFTER READING HUNDREDS OF THESE COMPLAINTS ONLINE I BELIEVE THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THESE CARS THAT CAN BE DANGEROUS. AND IT'S UNBELIEVABLE TO ME THAT THERE IS NO RECALL AFTER ALL THE REPORTS AND COMPLAINTS. WHEN IT JUMPS HOPS THRUST FORWARD YOU NEVER KNOW IF IT'S GOING TO BE A LITTLE OR A LOT. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN ONGOING WITH NO HELP FROM THE CERTIFIED MECHANICS. I PUT THE DATE AS 2013 BECAUSE AS I SAID IT'S BEEN ON GOING AND NOW IT'S COMPLETELY BROKEN. WHICH COULD HAVE BEEN PREVENTED HAD THE MECHANICS HELPED ME IN 2013

GOT INTO A VERY MINOR FENDER BENDER AND THE CAR WENT UP IN FLAMES. AIR BAGS NEVER DEPLOYED BECAUSE I WASN'T GOING FAST ENOUGH. BUT YET MY CAR BURNED.

WHILE DRIVING, POWER STEERING LOCKED UP, CAR TURNED OFF AND THEN BACK ON. THE RADIO TURNED OFF AND THEN BACK ON AND CLOSE DRIVER WINDOW LIT UP. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON 4 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS NOW. STEERING LOCKED UP WHILE ON I-95. RADIO ON AND OFF WHILE TURNING ONTO HIGHWAY AND WINDOW MESSAGE WHILE CAR WAS STATIONARY.

MY IGNITION KEY BROKE OFF DURING DRIVING. THE CAR WAS SHUT OFF AND I COULD HAVE DIED BY HITTING THE RAILING. I CALLED MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND THE SERVICE LADY SAID SHE HAS SEEN THIS HAPPEN MANY TIMES. THE KEYS METAL BROKE OFF. THE KEYS ARE MADE OF SOME KIND OF CHEAP METAL. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZZARD. PLEASE HELP THOSE ON THE ROAD AVOID A CATASTOPHY.

WHILE DRIVING TO WORK ON THE HIGHWAY MY RADIO WILL TURN OFF AND ON MULTIPLE TIMES AND MY STABILITY CONTROL WILL TURN OFF AND IT WILL BE HARD TO TURN THE VEHICAL. A WARNING COMES ON THE INFORMATION SCREEN SAYING CHECK STABILITY CONTROL AND ALSO CHECK POWER STEERING. IT HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES IT HAVE HAPPENED TODAY AS WELL AS I WAS DRIVING ON THE FEEDER

RADIO CONSOLE GETS REAL HOT TO TOUCH. GOES AWAY THEN GETS HOT AGAIN. YEARLY PROBLEM. DONT WANT FIRE HAZARD. IS THIS NORMAL? VEHICLE REQUIRED EXTENSIVE RECALLS SINCE PURCHASE IN 2013.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AND THE CAR LOST ALL POWER IN A VERY REMOTE PART ON THE INTERSTATE. THIS WAS AT 9 O'CLOCK PM ON A SUNDAY. THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE PAST 5 MPH. HAD TO TAKE THE BATTERY CONNECTORS OFF TO CLEAR THE CODES AND THEN WAS ABLE TO SLOWLY DRIVE HOME. COULD NOT GO MORE THAN 50 MPH OR THE ENGINE WOULD JUMP AND THE CAR WOULD DECELERATE. AGAIN, I WAS ON I-10, AT 9PM, 6 HOURS AWAY FROM HOME. WHEN I GOT BACK TO TOWN, I TOOK THE CAR TO GET SERVICED AND WHEN I GOT THE CAR BACK THE FIRST TIME, I PULLED OUT INTO TRAFFIC AND THE CAR STILL WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WHEN THEY SAID IT WAS READY FOR PICKUP, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME BACK ON. LEFT THE CAR AT THE DEALERSHIP TO GET SERVICED AGAIN. PICKED UP THE CAR THIS PAST SATURDAY AND WHEN I WENT TO DRIVE IT ON SUNDAY, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME BACK ON. WILL BE DROPPING THE CAR OFF AGAIN AT THE DEALERSHIP AFTER WORK.

AT FIRST, I STARTED THE CAR ONE DAY AND THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME UP AND AS I TRIED TO PUT THE TRANSMISSION IN D THE "D" LIGHT STARTED FLASHING (NOT STEADY AS NORMAL) AND THERE WAS SOME NOISE FROM THE TRANSMISSION. I PUT IT BACK TO "P" AND TURNED THE CAR OFF AND STARTED IT AGAIN. THEN IT ACTED NORMALLY. LATER ON, IT HAPPENED SUDDENLY WHILE I WAS DRIVING (THE TRANSMISSION SNAPPED AND THE "D" LIGHT STARTED FLASHING). I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS, AND THEY FOUND THAT THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE (TCM) WAS DEFECTIVE. I SEARCHED ONLINE AND FOUND THAT THERE WERE MANY RECALLS ON THE TCM FOR 2012 & 2013 CHEVY CRUZE, BUT MINE WAS NOT IDENTIFIED IN THOSE RECALLS AS PER THE DEALER. I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT GM WILL INVESTIGATE THE CASE AND FEED ME BACK, BUT I FOUND OUT TODAY THAT THEY DO NOT DO INVESTIGATIONS UNLESS IT COMES FROM THE NHTSA.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY STEERING LOCKED UP. TWO DAY AFTER POWER STEERING LIGHT AND STABILLTRAK LIGHTS WERE ON

LOOKING FOR A RECALL NOTHING ? A LOT OF ROAD NOISE FROM TIRES ON A 2013 CHEVY CRUZ WITH 31000 MILES

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT COOLANT WAS LEAKING AT THE WATER PUMP. THE WATER PUMP WAS REPLACED. THE ISSUE PERSISTED AND THE HEATER AND DEFOGGER WERE INOPERABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS THEN DIAGNOSED WITH NO COOLANT AND THE THERMOSTAT HOUSING WAS REPLACED. THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AGAIN. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE A LEAK WAS FOUND AT THE WATER PUMP. THE PUMP WAS REPLACED AGAIN. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AGAIN. THE DEALER PERFORMED A DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND A P0411 CODE WAS FOUND. THIS TIME, THE AIR CHECK VALVE WAS REPLACED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEATER WAS INOPERABLE.

"SERVICE SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM" ERROR MESSAGES - 2 BODY MODULES BAD AND ALREADY REPLACED ONCE. MODULE FAILURE CAUSES ADDITIONAL CASCADING FAILURES THROUGHOUT THE REST OF THE SYSTEM AND AFFECTS DASH CONTROLS/TURN-SIGNALS, MPG, FUEL CALCULATIONS & NOW "MY LINK" SCREEN BLANK WITH "SERVICE PARKING ASST MESSAGE ON DASH. SINCE MYLINK SCREEN DEAD, RADIO DIALS/CONTROLS DO NOT WORK AND CANNOT SEE/CONTROL HEATING CONTROLS AND NAVIGATION SCREEN DEAD AS WELL. THESE SAME TWO SIDE MODULES WERE ALREADY REPLACED ONCE UNDER WARRANTY, BUT SINCE VEHICLE IS NOW OVER ON MILEAGE, I AM LEFT ON MY OWN TO PAY FOR REPAIRS. MODULES GET BASICALLY ONE WINTER SEASON HERE IN THE NORTHEAST AND NEED TO BE REPLACED. MALFUNCTIONS CAUSE CASCADING FAILURES THROUGHOUT REST OF ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND MAKE CERTAIN VEHICLE SYSTEMS AND SAFETY FUNCTIONS INOPERABLE. I CONTACTED GM CUSTOMER CARE AND BASICALLY THEY SAID THERE IS NO ASSISTANCE AVAILABLE BECAUSE IT IS "NOT A KNOWN CONCERN" ON THIS VEHICLE. MODULE LOCATION IS BEHIND REAR WHEELS IN BUMPER COVER AREA, AND ARE OPEN TO THE ELEMENTS AND POORLY SEALED. WATER/SALT WATER SEEMINGLY EASILY PENETRATES THESE MODULES AND CAUSES THEM TO FAIL. BECAUSE THEY ARE DIRECTLY TIED INTO THE REST OF THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, WHEN THEY DO FAIL IT CAUSES CASCADING FAILURES THROUGHOUT THE REST OF THE SYSTEM SEEMINGLY AT RANDOM. (SOME OF THE SYSTEMS ARE CRITICAL TO VEHICLE SAFETY AND OPERATION.

3/22 -- ON MY WAY TO WORK (A BRIEF 5-MILE DRIVE), THE 'CHECK ENGINE' LIGHT CAME ON AND A WARNING ABOUT THE STABILITRAK SYSTEM APPEARED ON MY DASHBOARD DISPLAY SCREEN. THE ENGINE POWER WAS AUTOMATICALLY REDUCED, AND MY CAR WOULD NOT GO BEYOND 25-30 MILES PER HOUR. FORTUNATELY, I HAD EXITED THE HIGHWAY AND HAD JUST TURNED LEFT ONTO A SURFACE STREET. AT THE TIME, IT WAS RAINING, BUT NOT HEAVILY. THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME THAT I HAD STARTED MY CAR THAT DAY, SO THE ENGINE WAS FRESH. I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT TO WORK; HOWEVER, WHEN I LEFT WORK A COUPLE OF HOURS LATER, THE 'CHECK ENGINE' LIGHT AND STABILITRAK WARNING WERE STILL DISPLAYED. I DROVE STRAIGHT HOME. 3/23 -- WHEN I STARTED MY CAR, THE 'CHECK ENGINE' LIGHT AND STABILITRAK WARNING WERE STILL DISPLAYED. I RAN A COUPLE OF ERRANDS AROUND TOWN, AND NOTHING CHANGED. I DECIDED TO 'REST' MY CAR FOR A DAY OR TWO WHILE I RESEARCHED THE SITUATION AND FIGURED OUT A PLAN. 3/25 -- WHEN I STARTED MY CAR, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS STILL ON, BUT THE STABILITRAK WARNING WAS GONE (I.E., MY DASHBOARD DISPLAY APPEARED AS IT NORMALLY WOULD, EXCEPT FOR THE 'CHECK ENGINE' LIGHT). AFTER I HAD DRIVEN MY CAR TO MAKE A COUPLE OF STOPS AROUND TOWN, THE STABILITRAK LIGHT CAME BACK ON. 3/26 -- THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS DISPLAYED AT ALL WHEN I STARTED MY CAR; I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE MY CAR AROUND TOWN DURING THE MORNING WITH NO WARNING LIGHTS COMING BACK ON. 3/27 -- WHEN I DROVE TO WORK, THE 'CHECK ENGINE' LIGHT AND STABILITRAK WARNING WERE NOT ON WHEN I STARTED MY CAR; HOWEVER, THEY DID CAME BACK ON JUST AS I ARRIVED AT WORK (ABOUT 5 MINUTES AFTER I HAD STARTED MY CAR). FOR SAFETY REASONS, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE WARNING LIGHTS ARE DISPLAYED OR NOT, I HAVE TAKEN CARE TO DRIVE ONLY WHEN I ABSOLUTELY NEED TO, ONLY ON SURFACE STREETS, AND WITH MY SPEED AT OR BELOW 25 MPH. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY NOT SUSTAINABLE LONG-TERM.

WHILE I WAS DRIVING IN MY COMMUNITY THE CAR SHUT ITSELF OFF AND TURNED BACK ON. THIS LOCKED MY STEERING WHEEL ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT.

THERE IS A DEFECT IN THE RESERVOIR THAT HOLDS THE COOLANT THAT MAKES IT UNABLE TO BREATH. THE COOLANT IS BUBBLING INSIDE THE RESERVOIR BECAUSE IT ISN'T ABLE TO RELEASE THE PRESSURE WHICH IN TURN IS MAKING THE CARS OVERHEAT. THE MANUFACTURE JUST SEES THIS NORMAL BUT THERE ARE MANY VIDEOS ON THE INTERNET OFF PEOPLE GOING THROUGH THE SAME THING.

I HAVE TWO COMPLAINTS ON MY VEHICLE, 1.SEVERAL TIMES THE VEHICLE WENT INTO A LOSS OF ENGINE POWER MODE WHERE IT WAS IN AN IDLE POSITION WITH NO ABILITY TO ACCELERATE, THE DISPLAY SHOWED LOSS OF ENGINE POWER, NO STABILTRACK AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THE VEHICLE WOULD TRANSITION TO A LOSS OF POWER MODE ON THE MAIN ROAD, I HAD TO TURN THE ENGINE OFF, WAIT ABOUT 60 SECONDS AND RESTART, MY POWER WAS RESTORED, THIS HAPPENED ON 3 OCCASIONS. 2. THE SECOND COMPLAINT IS REGARDING THE LOW COOLANT LEVEL, I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO A CERTIFIED DEALER AND THEY PUT THE COOLANT SYSTEM UNDER PRESSURE AND DETECTED NO LEAK, THEY ADDED COOLANT SINCE IT WAS VERY LOW AND ASKED ME TO LEAVE THE CAR WITH THEM FOR A DAY OR TWO AND SUGGESTED IT MAY BE THE RADIATOR. I REFUSED AND ASKED THEM TO ADD A DYE TO THE SYSTEM THAT WOULD INDICATE THE LEAK PATH AND I WOULD RETURN THE NEXT DAY, THEY REFUSED.

WHILE DRIVING RADIO CUTS IN AND OUT FOR 5-10 SECONDS, THE INFOTAINMENT SCREEN GOES BLANK, THE SERVICE STABILITRAK LIGHT FLASHES, OTHER WARNING LIGHTS FLASH, AND YOU HAVE TO RAISE THE DRIVER'S WINDOW DOWN AND BACK UP FOR THE INFORMATION SCREEN TO SHOW YOUR SPEED AND MILEAGE WHEN STARTING THE CAR. APPARENTLY THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE AND ITS ASHAMED THAT GM HAS NOT RECALLED THIS VEHICLE TO FIX THESE ISSUES. HOPEFULLY THEY WILL SOON BEFORE SOMETHING AWFUL HAPPENS TO INNOCENT PEOPLE. BOUGHT THE CAR USED FROM A CAR DEALERSHIP AT A GOOD DEAL, GUESS I KNOW WHY NOW.

HI THERE, I PURCHASED A CRUZE 3.5 YEARS AGO IN CANADA BECAUSE I AM A CANADIAN CITIZEN. I HAVE MOVED TO THE USA (NJ) TO LIVE WITH MY WIFE. SHE IS A US CITIZEN. WE HAVE CONTACTED GM ABOUT GETTING A LETTER OF CONFORMITY WHICH THEY DID SUPPLY US WITH. HOWEVER, IT DOES NOT CONFORM TO FMVSS STANDARDS. THE LETTER DOES NOT INCLUDE WHICH STANDARDS ARE NOT MET AND GM DOES NOT HAVE RECORD OF WHAT DOESN'T COMPLY. I WOULD LIKE TO GET MY CAR IMPORTED TO THE USA BUT WITHOUT THAT INFORMATION, I DON'T KNOW WHAT NEEDS TO BE FIXED. I HAVE CONTACTED SEVERAL RI'S THROUGHOUT NY, 1 IN NJ AND 1 IN PA AND NONE OF THEM ARE WILLING TO DO THE WORK (I ASSUME THAT BECAUSE THEY DON'T GET BACK TO ME ON SCHEDULING IT IN). PLEASE HELP ME FIND OUT WHAT NEEDS TO BE FIXED ON MY CAR SO I CAN IMPORT IT TO THE USA AND REGISTER IT HERE. THANK YOU! THE CAR IS US EPA CERTIFIED, AND CMVSS CERTIFIED (WITH STAMPS). I ENTERED THE USA ON A TEMPORARY DRIVING BASIS FOR 1 YEAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED AND THE POWER STEERING AND SERVICE STABILITRAC WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 55,000.

MY FIRST OIL CHANGE AFTER BUYING MY CAR THERE WAS A PROBLEM TAKING THE OIL PLUG OUT. I TOOK IT TO LAKE CHEVROLET IN DEVILS LAKE ND THEY PUT IN A NEW PLUG. NOW WHEN I HAD A OIL CHANGE THEY DETECTED A HAIRLINE CRACK I HAVE A APPOINTMENT TODAY TO FIX THIS.

"TAKATA RECALL" WE WERE GOING TO CHURCH ON SUNDAY MORNING , IT WAS A RAINING DAY , I WAS DRIVING AT 35-38 MPH IN A ZONE 40 MPH . I WAS APPROACHING TO A CURVE WHEN I INTENDED TO BRAKE, THE CAR SLIPPED TO THE LEFT ALL THE WAY , IT DONT BRAKED, IT DONT TURN ON THE SENSOR TO STABILIZE THE CAR AND THE MOST IMPORTANT , ANY OF THE AIR BAGS IN THE LEFT SIDE , IT DONT CAME OUT . THIS IS THE POLICE ACCIDENT REPORT CASE # HC170007937.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START AND THE KEY FAILED TO RELEASE FROM THE IGNITION SWITCH. THE FAILURE RECURRED TWICE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,200. ...UPDATED 03/08/17 *BF *CN

WHILE DRIVING CAR MESSAGE CENTER SAYS ENGINE OVERHEATED, PLEASE IDLE ENGINE. AFTER EXAMINING VEHICLE, FIND THERE WAS NO COOLANT IN VEHICLE. BEFORE COOLANT GETS TO EMPTY THERE SHOULD BE A LOW COOLANT WARNING TO PREVENT THE VEHICLE FROM BEING OVERHEATED. NO LOW COOLANT WARNING. FILLED UP COOLANT

AT RANDOM CAR WILL IDLE UP AND DOWN AND RPMS WILL JUMP. THIS HAPPENS WHEN JUST CRANKED AND AFTER DRIVEN AND SITTING STILL IN IDLE. ALSO, AT RANDOM WHEN TRYING TO CRANK THE CAR IT SEEMS TO GET STUCK AND I WILL HAVE TO RETURN THE IGNITION IN ORDER TO GET THE MOTOR TO FULLY TURN OVER.

THE CAR WAS PARKED. I STARTED IT AND 2 MINUTES LATER I GOT 3 MESSAGES "ENGINE POWER IS REDUCED" "SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL" "SERVICE STABILI TRAK" AND THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, IT WOULDN'T GO MORE THAN 5MPH. SO THEN I PARKED AGAIN, THANK GOD I DIDN'T EVEN LEAVE THE PARKING LOT OF THAT BUILDING. SO THEN I TURNED IT OFF AND LET IT REST FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES AND THEN STARTED IT BACK ON AND THE MESSAGES DISAPPEARED AND IT WAS RUNNING "FINE" THE GAS PEDAL FELT A LITTLE HARD WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE. NEXT DAY SAME THING BUT THIS TIME WHILE I WAS ON THE HIGH WAY, I USE I-88 TO GO TO WORK EVERY DAY AND THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS, GOING FROM 65-70 MPH TO 10 MPH AND IF SOMEONE WOULD'VE BEEN BEHIND ME THEY COULD'VE HIT ME. THIS IS VERY SCARY AND SOMETIMES I WORK LATE SHIFTS AND WITH THIS COLD WEATHER HAVING TO TURN THE ENGINE OFF FOR IT TO "RUN" AGAIN IS HORRIBLE. I WAS FREEZING TO DEATH. I HAVE READ HUNDREDS OF COMMENTS FROM PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND SAME CODES, AND I THINK GM SHOULD HAVE A RECALL FOR THIS, BECAUSE IT'S A MANUFACTURER PROBLEM AND THEY SHOULD FIX IT. TODAY I AM TAKING IT TO A CHEVY DEALER AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS. HOPEFULLY THIS HELPS TO HAVE ENOUGH PROOF OF THIS ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE STABILITY CONTROL WARNING INDICATOR FLASHED, THE RADIO SHORTED, AND VARIOUS WARNING INDICATORS FLASHED. THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED EACH TIME THE FAILURES OCCURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO WAS UNABLE TO REPLICATE AND DIAGNOSE THE FAILURES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 25,000.

TAKATA RECALL SMOKING IN MOTION.ALTERNATOR AND GENERATOR AND TURNING.

MY TRANSMISSION STARTED SLIPPING WHILE DRIVING TO WORK ON THE HIGHWAY AT 70 MPH. THE CAR GAVE ME 2 WARNINGS, ONE FOR THE TRACTION CONTROL NEEDING SERVICED AND ONE FOR THE TRANSMISSION NEEDING SERVICED. I DROVE THE CAR TO MY DEALER EXPLAINED THE PROBLEM TO THE DEALER AND STATED THAT I DIDN'T THINK I WAS GOING TO MAKE IT TO THEM. THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE CENTER LET THE CAR SIT FOR A FEW HOURS AND THEN CHECKED FOR CODES AND MYSTERIOUSLY COULD NOT FIND ANY PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM ALWAYS STARTS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS GOING UP HILL, THE TRANSMISSION LIGHTS STARTS BLINKING, THE CAR STARTS SPUTTERING AND I LOSE SPEED VERY UNSAFE IN TRAFFIC! WHEN SITTING AT A STOP LIGHT WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL MASHED TO THE FLOOR THE CAR LUNGES FORWARD. I HAVE SEARCHED ONLINE FOR SIMILAR PROBLEMS AND HAVE FOUND THAT MANY CRUZE OWNERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AND GM REFUSES TO HELP THERE DOES SEEM TO BE AN ASSOCIATED RECALL BUT IT DOESN'T STATE THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEM IN THE DISCRIPTION. (NHTSA 16V502000) POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:CONTROL MODULE (TCM, PCM). THE SERVICE CENTERS CAN'T FIX THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THE CAR IS NOT SHOWING ANY CODES WHEN THEY CHECK AND I'M ALWAYS SENT HOME.

WHILE ACCELERATING ON CITY STREETS, THE TRANSMISSION WENT INTO THE FOURTH GEAR AND HESITATED TO GO ANY FASTER. I THEN STOPPED ACCELERATING BUT THEN THE TRANSMISSION SLAMMED INTO THE THIRD GEAR AND REVVED HIGH UNTIL I PUSHED ON THE BRAKES AND THE TRANSMISSION SLAMMED BACK INTO THE FOURTH GEAR. THIS ISN'T THE FIRST OCCURRENCE. I HAVEN'T TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICING.

JUST BOUGHT THE VEHICLE AND WAS DRIVING AND KEPT HEARING A CLUNKING NOISE IN THE FRONT END AND NOTICED THE FROM ROTORS WAS INDICATING REPLACEMENT SO TOOK BACKTO DEALER AND THEY ALSO FOUND THAT THE FRONT STABILIZER LINK ON DRIVERS SIDE WAS SNAPPED IN HALF CAUSING OUTER TIE ROD NEEDING REPLACEMENT AND COULD OF CAUSED A CRASH AS YOU WOULD LOSE CONTROL OF VEHICLE ONCE OUTER TIR ROD DISCONNECTED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 50 MPH IN INCLEMENT WEATHER, ANOTHER VEHICLE ATTEMPTED TO SWITCH INTO THE CONTACT'S LANE. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT HYDROPLANED AND SPUN MULTIPLE TIMES CRASHING INTO SEVERAL TREES BUT THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED BACK, NECK AND SHOULDER INJURIES AS WELL AS BRUISES THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED FROM THE CRASH SCENE TO AN IMPOUND LOT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

ROUGHLY 6 WEEKS AFTER PURCHASING THIS VEHICLE, I STARTED HAVING INCIDENTS WHERE THE RADIO WOULD CUT OUT FOR 2-3 SECONDS AND THE INFOTAINMENT SCREEN WOULD GO BLANK. AT THE SAME TIME, THE "SERVICE STABILITRAK" MESSAGE MOMENTARILY APPEARS ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THERE ISN'T A TREND TO WHEN THIS HAPPENS. SOMETIMES IT WON'T HAPPEN FOR A WEEK, OTHER TIMES IT WILL HAPPEN MULTIPLE TIMES IN A SINGLE DRIVE. LAST WEEK, THIS HAPPENED AND I ALSO LOST POWER STEERING AND COULD NOT STEER FOR WHAT FELT LIKE A COUPLE SECONDS. BASED ON THE CHEVROLET CRUZE CUSTOMER FORUM, THIS IS A FAIRLY COMMON PROBLEM AND OTHER'S HAVE ALSO LOST POWER STEERING PULLING OUT OF A PARKING LOT. THERE IS NOT A RECALL FOR MY SPECIFIC VEHICLE OR A PERMANENT CORRECTIVE ACTION THAT I'VE FOUND. IT HAS BECOME A SAFETY CONCERN AND GM SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AND RECALL THE AFFECTED VEHICLES BEFORE POWER STEERING IS LOST AT HIGHER SPEEDS.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE POWER STABILITY FLASHES THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM RESETS AND IF DRIVING YOU LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE.

ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON , AUTO ZONE RAN IT AND CODE P0299. STATES IT THE TURBO/ SUPER CHARGER UNDERBOOST. 81,000 MILES. I HAVE ONLY HAD THIS VEHICLE 18 MONTHS. I DON'T RACE AROUND TOWN IN IT.

STOPPED ON HILL CAR IN DRIVE AFTER A FEW SECONDS STARTS ROLLING BACKWARDS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED WITH THE KEY REMOVED FROM THE IGNITION, IT ROLLED AWAY TWICE WITHIN 24 HOURS. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALER, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V502000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN). THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 42,000.

OWNER DRIVES THE VEHICLE FOR 10 MILES OR GREATER AND AFTER PARKING FOR SEVERAL MINUTES THE VEHICLE HAS A BURNING SMELL INSIDE. IT REMAINS FOR DAYS AT A TIME EVEN IF THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN DRIVEN. THIS HAS OCCURRED SINCE OWNERSHIP. SECOND PROBLEM; BRAKES LOCK UP AFTER THE CAR IS WASHED AND PARKED FOR A FEW MINUTES. REMEDY IS TO STEP ON THE ACCELERATOR WITH THE VEHICLE IN GEAR (DRIVE OR REVERSE) AND PREPARE TO BRAKE IMMEDIATELY. IT TOOK 1000 RPM'S TO GET THE BRAKES RELEASED THIS TIME. IT HAPPENS EACH TIME THE CAR IS WASHED IN A STATIONARY POSITION. MILEAGE IS 27,000.

THIS IS A RECURRING ISSUE THAT HAS BEEN GOING ON WITH MY CAR SINCE THE LIGHTS CAME ON THE FIST TIME. THE DEALERSHIP ACTS AS IF I DON'T KNOW WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT. I HAVE WASTED SO MUCH GAS AND I TRANSPORT CHILDREN WITH AUTISM AT TIMES IN VA DC AND MD. I HAVE CONSISTENTLY COMPLAINED ABOUT THE STICKING THROTTLE OR ENGINE MISFIRE. PLEASE I FEAR FOR THE SAFETY OF MY CLIENTS AND MY FAMILY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. UPON ACCELERATION, THE VEHICLE HESITATED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS INTERMITTENT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000.

I NOTICED MY CAR WAS "SPUTTERING". AFTER MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS TRYING TO FIND OUT WHAT WAS WRONG WITH NO ATTEMPTS ALL IT DID WAS GET WORSE. IT FELT LIKE MY CAR WAS SUFFOCATING. IT GOT TO THE POINT WHERE IT WAS CHUGGING THE WHOLE WAY HOME FROM MY EMPLOYMENT. OPENED THE HOOD WHILE IT WAS RUNNING AND IT APPEARED A SPARK PLUG WAS ARCHING. AFTER REMOVING THE COIL PACK TO GET TO THE SPARK PLUGS ONE OF THE BOOTS COMPLETELY FELL APART WHILE TRYING TO REMOVE IT. IT WAS THEN THE COILS WERE LOOKED AT, 3 OUT OF 4 WERE CORROSION AND SO WE'RE THERE CASINGS. THE WHOLE SECTION NOW NEEDS TO BE REPLACED ON A CAR WITH LESS THAN 80,000 MILES.

THERE HAVE BEEN TWO TIMES WHEN I HAVE BEEN PULLING OUT OF A PARKING LOT AND THE ENGINE DIED. NOTHING SHOWED ON DASH. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND RESTARTED AND IT STARTED BACK UP. TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND THEY INDICATED THAT THERE WEREN'T ANY CODES SHOWING AND IF IT HAPPENED AGAIN TO BRING THE CAR BACK. HAPPENED AGAIN LAST NIGHT, SAME SITUATION. NOTHING SHOWING ON DASH. ALSO SOMETIMES SEEMS TO HESITATE WHEN ACCELERATING.

LESS THAN 2 MONTHS AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRED THE WINDOW REGULATOR CENTER PIECE ON THE DRIVERS SIDE BROKE WHEN USING THE POWER WINDOW CONTROL TO ROLL THE WINDOW BACK UP. THIS VEHICLE HAS NO CIRCUMSTANCES THAT WOULD CAUSE THIS PART TO FAIL BESIDES IT BEING A FAULTY PART. THE WINDOW IS STUCK IN THE DOWN POSITION AND THE PART HAS TO BE ORDERED FROM OUT OF STATE. THE REPAIR COST IS IN EXCESS OF $300 WHICH I SHOULD BE REIMBURSED FOR. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AT A DRIVE THROUGH WINDOW AT THE TIME OF FAILURE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH, A SECOND VEHICLE CRASHED INTO THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE OF THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE AND CAUSED SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SUSTAINED NECK, BACK, AND HEAD INJURIES, WHICH REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 72,000.

THE TURBO STARTED GIVING PROBLEMS AT UNDER 40,000 MILES LIGHT CAME ON ON THE HIGHWAY

WHEN STARTING MY CAR FROM ANY STATIONARY POSITION, 0 MPH (FLAT PARKING, ON A HILL OR AT AN ANGLE) THE STARTER WILL ENGAGE AND CONTINUE TO RUN AND RUN WITHOUT STARTING THE ENGINE. IN ORDER TO START THE CAR, I HAVE TO TURN OFF THE IGNITION AND TRY AGAIN. THE SECOND TIME THE CAR WILL START (SO FAR). ALSO, WHEN I USE THE AIR CONDITIONER (CAR IN MOTION, ANY SPEED 0-65MPH, ON CITY STREETS AND ON HIGHWAYS) THERE IS A COOLANT SMELL THAT COMES OUT OR THE VENTS. IT IS A STRONG SMELL AND I CANNOT FIGURE OUT A PATTERN FOR WHEN IT HAPPENS. IT HAPPENS WHEN I HAVE THE CAR RUNNING, SOMETIMES WHEN I FIRST TURN ON THE AIR CONDITIONER AND THEM IT WILL HAPPEN RANDOMLY AS I AM DRIVING AND THE AIR CONDITIONER HAS BEEN ON FOR A WHILE. I HAVE NEVER TRIED TO SEE IF IT HAPPENS WHEN I DON'T HAVE THE ENGINE RUNNING (DON'T KNOW IF THE AIR CONDITIONER CAN RUN WITHOUT THE ENGINE RUNNING).

STABILITRAK CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON CAR OVERHEATED AND THE CAR SLOWED DOWN AND TURNED OFF WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY IN COULDN'T RESTART THE CAR HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY WANTED TO CHARGE FOR REPAIRS WHICH WE ARE NOT GOING TO PAY FOR MANUFACTURING DEFECTS I HAVE A 2013 CHEVY CRUISE.

ABOUT A YEAR AFTER BUYING MY 2013 CHEVY CRUZE THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW FELL DOWN AND OUT OF THE TRACK. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY REPAIRED IT UNDER WARRANNTY. NOW MY CRUZE IS 3 YEARS AND 2 MONTHS OLD WITH 21,000 MILES ON IT AND THE PASSENGER WINDOW HAS DONE THE SAME THING. MY WARRANTY RAN OUT 2 MONTHS AGO EVEN THOUGHT THERE ARE ONLY 21,000 MILES ON IT I HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR. BOTH TIMES THIS HAPPENED WE WERE GETTING IN THE VEHICLE AND CLOSED THE DOOR, ROLLED DOWN THE WINDOW AND THE WINDOW FELL TO THE BOTTOM OF THE DOOR AND WONT GO UP.

VEHICLE ACCIDENT WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE - AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY IN ACCIDENT. DRIVER HIT HEAD ON STEERING WHEEL. (ALL AIRBAGS DEPLOYED ON OTHER VEHICLE (AUDI S4.)) TOLD BY INSURANCE ADJUSTOR HE TYPICALLY DOES NOT SEE AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT ON CHEVY CRUIZE AS THE SENSORS ARE HIGH ON THE INTERNAL FRAME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH AND ACCELERATING, THE TACHOMETER SHOWED THAT THE RPM WAS RED-LINED; HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESPOND. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO BE DIAGNOSED. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, WHILE STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL DEPRESSED, THE VEHICLE LUNGED FORWARD. THE FAILURE RECURRED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 52,719.

ALL THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS GOING OFF FOR NO REASON. KEY STUCK IN IGNITION AND CAR WILL NOT START. JUST LIKE MOST OTHER COMPLAINTS WITH THIS CAR MOSTLY ELECTRICAL. I JUST GOT THIS CAR FOR MY 16 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER. VERY SCARY THAT THERE IS NOT A RECALL ON THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND THE DEALERS DOES NOT KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON VERY DISAPPOINTING. AND THIS HAS HAPPENED SITTING STILL AND IN MOTION LIKE THE CAR HAS A MIND OF ITS OWN.

BRAKE PEDAL BECOMES DIFFICULT OR IMPOSSIBLE TO COMPRESS RESULTING IN DIFFICULTY BRINGING THE VEHICLE TO A COMPLETE STOP. SEEMS TO OCCUR AT LOW SPEEDS. THERE HAVE BEEN 4-5 OCCURRENCES IN THE LAST 3-4 MONTHS. BRINGING VEHICLE TO DEALER FOR EVALUATION. CAR HAS 45000 MILES.

LATELY I'VE BEEN NOTICING THE TOUCH SCREEN RADIO TO FLICKER AND COMPLETELY LOSE POWER. I FIGURE IT WAS JUST A GLITCH WITH THE ALL THE TECHNOLOGY THAT THIS CAR HAS. WELL, THE SERVICE ANTITHEFT DETERRENT SYSTEM CONTINUES TO COME ON, BUT GOES AWAY. CAR IS FINE. LAST SATURDAY MY CAR WOULDN'T START UNTIL THE 3RD TRY. THE CAR COMPLETELY SHUT OFF, ABSOLUTELY NO POWER, KEY WOULDN'T COME OUT OF THE IGNITION. AFTER 15 MINUTES IT STARTED, THE RADIO FLICKER. ON MY WAY TO WORK, THE RADIO KEPT CUTTING OUT THEN AS I WAS SLOWING DOWN TO TURN, MY STEERING AND BRAKES GAVE OUT, NEARLY CAUSING A HUGE COLLISION! THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON THING WITH THE 2013 CRUZE LT. CHEVY NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING! I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN THIS CAR ANYMORE! NO ONE SEEMS TO KNOW THE PROBLEM? IT'S LIFE OR DEATH HERE, I TRAVEL A LOT FOR WORK AND GET ON BUSY HIGHWAYS. HOW MANY INJURIES OR DEATHS DO YOU NEED TO CORRECT THIS MAJOR PROBLEM?

THIS CHEV CRUZ RAMMED MY HONDA 2010 CIVIC AT 40+MPH IN THE RIGHT REAR QUARTER PANEL. THE CIVIC WAS TURNING LEFT INTO THE INTERSECTION AND WAS TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH. THE CIVIC DEPLOYED 4 AIRBAGS AND DEEMED A TOTAL LOSS WHILE THE CRUZ DID NOT DEPLOY AN AIRBAG AND HAD SLIGHT DAMAGE TO THE FRONT. I DON'T UNDERSTAND THIS AND HAVE INCLUDED PICTURES AND WOULD LIKE YOUR INVESTIGATION AND OPINION IF THE 2013 CRUZ'S AIRBAG IS DEFECTIVE.

MY 2013 CHEVY CRUZE ALMOST GOT ME IN A REALLY BAD ACCIDENT. IT STARTED WHEN DRIVING ABOUT 20 MPH (TRANSMISSION IS IN D) THE CAR STARTED TO LOOSE POWER FELT LIKE ITS STALLING, RPM DROPPED THEN SUDDENLY STARTED GOING INTO REVERSE WHILE THE TRANSMISSION IS STILL ON D I ALMOST HIT THE CAR BEHIND ME. I STEPPED ON MY BREAKS AND I PUT THE TRANSMISSION IN PARK BUT THE CAR SURGED FORWARD IN WHICH I ALMOST HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. I'VE TAKEN THIS CAR SEVERAL TIMES TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR TRANSMISSION SHIFTING PROBLEMS BUT I FELT THAT IT WAS NOT COMPLETELY FIXED. THE DEALER ALWAYS TELLS ME THAT THERES NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. BUT NOW THAT I'VE ALMOST HIT 2 CARS YESTERDAY WITHOUT ANY REASON, I FEEL THAT THE CAR IS COMPLETELY UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND MY WIFE EVEN TOLD ME THAT SHE WILL NEVER DRIVE THIS CAR AGAIN. IT'S JUST SAD TO BE HAVING THIS MANY PROBLEMS ON A CAR WITH LESS THAN 50K MILESYESTERDAY MY 2013 CHEVY CRUZE ALMOST GOT ME IN A REALLY BAD ACCIDENT. IT STARTED WHEN DRIVING ABOUT 20 MPH (TRANSMISSION IS IN D) THEN THE CAR STARTED TO LOOSE POWER FELT LIKE ITS STALLING THE RPM DROPPED THEN SUDDENLY STARTED GOING INTO REVERSE WHILE THE TRANSMISSION IS STILL ON D I ALMOST HIT THE CAR BEHIND ME. SO I STEPPED ON MY BREAKS THEN TRY TO SWITCH GEARS ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR STARTED TO GO FORWARD EVEN THOUGH THE CAR IS IN PARK IN WHICH THIS TIME I ALMOST HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. I'VE TAKEN THIS CAR SEVERAL TIMES TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR TRANSMISSION SHIFTING PROBLEMS BUT I FELT THAT IT WAS NOT COMPLETELY FIXED. THE DEALER ALWAYS TELLS ME THAT THERES NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. BUT NOW THAT I'VE ALMOST HIT 2 CARS YESTERDAY WITHOUT ANY REASON, I FEEL THAT THE CAR IS COMPLETELY UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND MY WIFE EVEN TOLD ME THAT SHE WILL NEVER DRIVE THIS CAR AGAIN.

CAR'S ENGINE STOPPED RUNNING UNEXPECTEDLY DUE TO BLOWN FUEL PUMP FUSE WHILE TRAVELING AT 30 M.P.H IN CLEAR WEATHER, DURING THE DAY, ON PAVED DOWNTOWN ORLANDO STREET. WHEN ENGINE DIED, LOST POWER STEERING AND POWER BREAKS, VERY DIFFICULT TO CONTROL AND ALMOST GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT. DEALER DIAGNOSED THE ISSUE AS A COIL PACK PROBLEM AND REPLACED THE COIL PACK AT A COST OF $534.00. I AM NOT SURE HOW THE COIL PACK THAT HOLDS THE SPARK PLUGS WOULD CAUSE THE FUEL PUMP FUSE TO BLOW.

SINCE PURCHASE OF THE VEHICLE BRAND NEW IN 2013, CLUTCH HAS REPEATEDLY SMELLED LIKE BURNING CLUTCH AT RANDOM TIMES WHILE DRIVING IN 5TH AND 6TH GEAR AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE DEALERSHIPS CLAIM THIS IS NORMAL. AT ABOUT 50K MILES WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AT 60MPH IN 6TH GEAR FOR A PERIOD OF ABOUT 30 MINUTES, I STARTED SMELLING THE CLUTCH BURNING EVEN THOUGH I WASN'T SHIFTING AND DIDN'T HAVE MY FOOT ON THE CLUTCH. WHEN IT CAME TIME TO EXIT THE FREEWAY AND SWITCH GEARS THE CLUTCH WENT TO THE FLOOR AND I COULDN'T SHIFT INTO OTHER GEARS. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND TAKE MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP BY SHIFTING WHEN THE GEARS SYNCED. THE DEALERSHIP, KEYS CHEVROLET, IN VAN NUYS, TOLD ME I WAS RIDING THE CLUTCH AND CAUSED IT TO MELT AND WOULDN'T LISTEN TO ME ABOUT WHAT REALLY HAPPENED. MY LAST VEHICLE WAS A 1997 VW JETTA AND I TOOK THE ORIGINAL CLUTCH TO 157K MILES BEFORE TRADING IN FOR THIS CHEVY AND THE CLUTCH WAS STILL GOOD. I'VE BEEN A VALET FOR YEARS AND AN AUCTION COORDINATOR, I DON'T RIDE THE CLUTCH AND I CAN DRIVE ANY VEHICLE PROFESSIONALLY. THE 2013 CHEVY CRUZE LS HAS PROBLEMS. AFTER LOOKING ON THE CRUZETALK FORUMS, MANY MEMBERS HAVE FOUND THAT THE AMOUNT OF TRANSMISSION FLUID CHEVROLET PUTS INTO THEIR TRANSMISSIONS, ABOUT 2 QUARTS, IS NOT ENOUGH FOR 5TH AND 6TH GEAR AND THEY RECOMMEND PUTTING IN 2.5 QUARTS. CHEVROLET DENIES THERE IS A PROBLEM EVEN THOUGH THEY CAUSED MY CLUTCH TO MELT AND COST ME $1,800 TO FIX IT.

STARTING AT 20-30K MILES, SERVICE STABILITRAK WOULD COME ON AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD BLINK FOR 30 SECONDS. AFTER SHUTTING OF THE CAR THE SERVICE LIGHT WOULD GO OFF. EACH TIME I TOOK IT TO A DEALERSHIP THE CODE WAS CLEAR AND THEY WEREN'T ABLE TO FIND OUT WHAT WAS WRONG. I GOT CHARGED FOR $180 FOR CHECKING UP AND NOT HAVING A PROBLEM ONCE. ALL THE OTHER TIMES I BROUGHT IN THE VEHICLE THEY FOUND SOMETHING WRONG AND DIDN'T CHARGE ME. FINALLY OVER THE COUPLE YEARS I OWNED THE VEHICLE AND NOW AT 80K MILES, THE SERVICE STABILITRAK LIGHT HAD BEEN COMING ON MORE AND MORE, I FINALLY GOT IT TO COME ON AND GOT AN APPOINTMENT RIGHT AWAY. I TOOK IT IN AND THEY TOOK 2 DAYS TO FIND OUT THAT ALL MY SPARK PLUGS AND MY COIL PACK WAS RUSTED AND CORRODED. IT COST $700. I LIVE IN CALIFORNIA THERE IS NO SALT ON THE ROADS AND I DON'T LIVE BY THE OCEAN. THIS SHOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED.

ALL THE WHEEL HUBS WENT BAD AT 40K MILES. THEY ALL MADE VERY LOUD VIBRATIONS WHILE DRIVING AT SPEEDS BETWEEN 25-75. THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO LAST 300K. NOT COVERED UNDER ANY WARRANTY.

WHILE DRIVING, THE RADIO SCREEN SHUTS OFF AND ON, SERVICE STABILITRAK WARNING COMES ON FOR 2 SECONDS THEN GOES AWAY. WHILE PARKED, THE TRUNK OPENED AUTOMATICALLY TWICE. DEALERSHIP RESET THE ELECTRICAL AND THE PROBLEM IS STILL OCCURRING. BASED ON MANY OTHER COMPLAINS AND THE PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED, THIS VEHICLE IS A LEMON. I WANT MY MONEY BACK!

STEERING LOCKED UP WHILE DRIVING DOWN ROAD. CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. WHILE DRIVING AT ABOUT 35MPH. STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP ON ME AND I COULD NOT TURN AT A CURVE CAUSING ME TO SLAM ON BRAKES AND SLID OFF OF A DIRT ROAD INTO A DITCH AND TREE LINED AREA. DO HAVE POLICE REPORT AS WELL.

I WAS TURNING WHEN THE INFORMATION CENTER WENT BLANK AND THE SERVICE POWER STEERING LIGHT CAME ON. IT BECAME VERY DIFFICULT TO STEER THE CAR. I PULLED OVER, TURNED THE CAR OFF, LOOKED UNSET THE HOOD. WHEN I RESTARTED IT WAS FINE. SPORADICALLY OVER THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS THE INFO CENTER WOULD BLIP OUT AND THE SERVICE STABILITRAK LIGHT WOULD COME ON. THE DEALER COULD NEVER REPLICATE THE ISSUE. IT NEVER INVOLVED THE STEERING UNTIL NOW.

THE CARS RADIO SCREEN WILL GO OUT AND THE STABILI CHECK COMES ON IT HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES AND SOMETIMES WITH THAT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL COME ON IT HAS HAPPENS ON ALL ROADS HIGHWAYS AND CITY ROADS IN MOTION AND WHEN STOPPED HAVE HAD AN INCIDENT WHEN THE CAR WOULD NOT TURN ON NOTHING WOULD WORK NOT EVEN THE LOCKS FROM INSIDE THE CAR HAVE HAD A LOT OF ISSUES WITH THIS CAR OTHER THAN JUST THIS AND I HAVE NOT EVEN HAD IT A YEAR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN IN A DARK ROAD AND AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS, IT WAS ABLE TO RESTART. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED AND THE PARKING ASSIST SERVICE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER, WHO REPLACED THE NEGATIVE TERMINAL CABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT A WEEK LATER, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START AND WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER, WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE LEFT DRIVER'S SIDE REAR PARKING ASSIST MODULE HAD WATER IN IT AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,000.

INTERMITTENTLY THE ANTI-THEFT LIGHT GOES ON, WITHOUT WARNING AT AN HIGH SPEEDS OR WHEN PARKED AND SHUTS DOWN ALL SYSTEMS, IMMOBILIZING THE CAR. THIS INCLUDES THE RADIO, STEERING, MOTOR. TWO DAYS AGO I WAS DRIVING AND THIS HAPPENED, THE CAR SHUT DOWN, I COULDN'T STEER OR DRIVE THE CAR, A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. THIS HAS ALSO HAPPENED WHEN TRYING TO START THE CAR, THE ANT-THEFT SYSTEM SHUTS DOWN THE CAR. THERE IS NO WAY TO KNOW WHEN THIS WILL HAPPEN. WHEN TAKEN TO AUTO DEALER, THE CAR WORKS FINE. THE CAR HAS 66,000 MILES. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 6 TIMES, BUT THE LAST ONE WAS THE WORST, TRAVELLING AT HIGH SPEED AND LOSING CONTROL OF THE CAR. WHAT HAPPENED IS SIMILAR TO WHAT HAPPENED WITH THE IGNITION SWITCH IN COBALTS WHERE THE CAR JUST STOPPED, THAT IS PRETTY MUCH WHAT HAPPENED WITH ME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE DRIVING AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER. THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, BUT THE VEHICLE HESITATED BEFORE ACCELERATING. IN ADDITION, WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IDLING, THE ABS AND MULTIPLE WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 42,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

IN A CONVERSATION WITH THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT STEVE RAYMAN OF SMYRNA, GA HE SAID THE NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE CAUSED THE PROBLEMS WITH THE INSTRUMENT PANEL, GAUGES, AND THE STEERING WHEEL JERKING TO THE LEFT. I CHOSE TO CONTACT GENERAL MOTORS BECAUSE I JUST COULD NOT BELIEVE A NEGATIVE CABLE COULD CAUSE SUCH PROBLEMS. AS MENTIONED EARLIER, GM PERSONNEL TOLD ME THAT THREE REMEDIES MADE UP SPECIAL COVERAGE 14311' 1, NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE NEEDS REPLACEMENT. 2. VOLTAGE REGULATOR NEEDS ADJUSTMENT 3. A SCREW NEEDS TO BE TIGHTENED. IN A SECOND CONVERSATION WITH STEVE RAYMAN PERSONNEL AND GM, BOTH SAID IT WAS THE CABLE AND NOT THE VOLTAGE REGULATORS. THE CAR HAD BEEN IN MY GARAGE FOR THE LAST FEW DAYS WITH A DEAD BATTERY. THIS MORNING I JUMP-STARTED THE VEHICLE; SO, WE CAN ASSUME THE ALTERNATOR WAS WORKING PROPERLY BECAUSE THE CAR CONTINUES TO RUN AFTER DISCONNECTING THE BATTERY CABLES. I DROVE TO THE STORE IN ORDER TO PURCHASE AND REPLACE THE BATTERY I NOTICED THE BATTERY VOLTAGE WAS READING 15.1 VOLTS. AFTER REPLACING THE BATTERY, I WAS RETURNING HOME AND NOTICED THE BATTERY VOLTAGE FLUCTUATED FROM 14.7 WHILE IDLING TO 14.8 WHILE DRIVING. MY QUESTION TO YOU THE ALTERNATOR APPEARS TO WORKING CORRECTLY BY PROVIDING ELECTRICAL POWER TO OPERATE THE CAR WHILE USING A DEAD BATTERY. IF THERE WERE A POWER FLUCTUATION, WOULD IT BE REASONABLE TO ASSUME THE VOLTAGE REGULATOR COULD BE THE PROBLEM. COULD ERRATIC VOLTAGE CAUSE THE INSTRUMENTS TO GO HAYWIRE AND COULD LEAD TO THE CAR'S ENGINE TURNING OFF? COULD SUCH AN OCCURRENCE CAUSE A CATASTROPHE ACCIDENT AND RISK THE LIVE OF ALL VEHICLE OCCUPANTS?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE WINDOWS STARTED TO FOG UP AND THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE BLOWER MOTOR FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BLOWER MOTOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 43,000.

THE COMPUTER SYSTEM GOES ON AND OFF AT RANDOM, WHICH CAUSES MALFUNCTIONS IN OTHER AREAS, PARTICULARLY THE POWER STEERING AND SECURITY SYSTEM. MY POWER STEERING HAS GONE OUT MULTIPLES TIMES, CAUSING NEAR ACCIDENTS. THE SECURITY SYSTEM ALSO LOCKED UP DUE TO THE COMPUTER, AND IT TOOK 15 MINUTES TO GET IT STARTED IN THE ARIZONA HEAT. THE POWER STEERING ISSUE IS INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS.

VERY STRONG ODOR OF COOLANT INSIDE THE CAR, BROUGHT IT IN TO THE DEALER AND THEY HAVE REPLACED THE WATER PUMP, HEATER CORE, DID A PRESSURE TEST ON THE COOLANT SYSTEM AND DID A SCAB JOB OF RUNNING A HOSE FROM MY RESERVOIR TANK TO UNDER THE CAR. I'M STILL GETTING COOLANT VAPORS INTO THE CAR. DEX-COOL HAS A SAFETY WARNING ABOUT BREATHING ANTIFREEZE VAPORS. INHALATION: AVOID BREATHING VAPORS OR MISTS. HIGHER TEMPERATURES MAY GENERATE VAPOR LEVELS SUFFICIENT TO CAUSE ADVERSE EFFECTS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 75 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED AND THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER, BUT THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE DETERMINED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER TO BE SERVICED UNDER A SAFETY RECALL RELATED TO THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THE WATER PUMP WAS LEAKING AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE TECHNICIAN ALSO INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE WATER PUMP HOUSING WAS CRACKED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED, BUT WAS NOT REPAIRED. WHEN THE HEATER WAS ACTIVATED, AN ODOR OF ANTIFREEZE AND FUEL EMITTED INSIDE THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 12,000.

ENGINE OVERHEATED. TECH FOUND COOLING FAN NOT COMING ON. TECH FOUND COOLING FAN CONNECTOR MELTED. TECH USED POWER PROBE TO SEND 12 VOLTS TO COOLING FAN MOTOR. BLEW THE CIRCUIT BREAKER IN THE PROBE. MOTOR FAULTY. TECH SUGGEST NEW COOLING FAN MOTOR & PIGTAIL ASSEMBLY TO REPAIR. THE ABOVE DESCRIPTION IS WORD FOR WORD FROM THE REPAIR INVOICE. THE REPAIR SHOP ALSO TOLD US THIS WAS A PRETTY SERIOUS DEFECT AND COULD HAVE CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO CATCH ON FIRE.

WE BOUGHT THIS CAR BRAND NEW OFF THE LOT AND THE BRAKES HAVE SQUEALED SINCE WE BOUGHT THE VEHICLE FEB 2014. WE HAVE TAKEN IT IN SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG, THEY SAY IT'S THE TYPE OF BRAKES AND SOMETIMES THEY DO SQUEAL ESPECIALLY IF HUMID OR WET. NOW YESTERDAY SOMEONE SLAMMED ON THEIR BRAKES IN FRONT OF ME. LUCKILY I WAS FAR ENOUGH BACK (ABOUT 4 CAR LINKS) THAT I DIDN'T HIT THEM. WHEN I SLAMMED ON MY BRAKES, THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR AND NOTHING HAPPENED! I LET UP AND TRIED AGAIN AND GOT SOME BRAKE, BUT STILL NOT LIKE IT SHOULD. I COULD NOT GET THE PROBLEM TO DUPLICATE, WHEN I TRIED, THE BRAKES WORKED FINE. I WAS DRIVING ON DRY PAVEMENT ON A HIGHWAY AT 45 MPH, THERE WAS NO REASON FOR THIS TO HAPPEN. THE CAR HAS 19870 MILES ON IT. THIS ISSUE COULD HAVE KILLED ME AND LEFT 4 CHILDREN WITH NO MOTHER! I SEE TONS OF ISSUES FOR THIS FROM 2011-2014 CRUZE VEHICLES, WHEN IS CHEVY AND GM GOING TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS INSTEAD OF HIDING UNDER A ROCK AND CALLING US ALL LIARS?! SOMEONE IS GOING TO BE KILLED!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE DRIVING 65-70 MPH, THE VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN A REAR END COLLISION. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AND THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED.

RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER ON THE EMISSION,TOOK VECHILE TO DEALERSHIP,REPROGRAMMED EMISSION,2 WEEKS LATER ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON VECHILE WAS RUNNING FINE UNTIL RESET OF EMISSION,CALL DEALERSHIP,TOOK CAR IN FOR SECOND REPROGRAMMING,SAME ISSUE WITH ENGINE LIGHT.

MY VEHICLE LOOSES POWER, ENGINE LEAKS, HAVE A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT PROBLEMS WITH THE KEY IN THE SWITCH....THE VEHICLE STARTED SMOKING AND CAUGHT ON FIRE THAN LOOSES POWER ALL THE TIME. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS CAR BECAUSE I TRAVEL WITH MY FAMILY I HAVE THREE CHILDREN.

I HAD AN ISSUE STARTING THE CAR A WEEK AFTER PURCHASING IT IN FEBRUARY. RANDOM WARNING LIGHTS WOULD TURN ON AND OFF. I READ THROUGH THE OWNERS MANUAL AND IT SAID IT MAY BE A SECURITY ISSUE IF THE KEY ISN'T CLEAN. I CLEANED THE KEY IT SEEMED TO HAVE FIXED THE PROBLEM BUT AFTER A FEW MONTHS IT CAME BACK BRIEFLY AND I'D CLEAN THE KEY AND IT WOULD BE FINE. ON THE MORNING OF JULY 30TH THE CAR GRINDED THE GEARS AND THEN HAD TROUBLE STARTING AS IF THE BATTERY WERE DEAD. THE KEY WAS CLEAN. AFTER A COUPLE TRIES IT STARTED. LATER THAT DAY THE POWER STEERING ALERT CAME ON AND THE ENGINE BOGGED DOWN AND I LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE FOR A BRIEF MOMENT. THE LIGHT WENT BACK OFF AND IT WORKED FINE FOR THE REST OF THE DAY. THE NEXT DAY AFTER RUNNING FINE ALL DAY WHILE ON AN EXIT RAMP OF A HIGHWAY MULTIPLE ALERTS BEGAN GOING OFF AND ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON AND A MOMENT LATER THE CAR STALLED. IT WOULD NOT EVEN CRANK TO RESTART. THE REAR CAUTION LIGHTS WOULD NOT WORK UNLESS THE KEY WAS TURNED. THE RADIO AND DASH WORK AND LIGHT UP BUT THE POWER WINDOWS WOULDN'T OPERATE.

I HAVE BEEN HAVING AN ISSUE WITH MY VEHICLE ON AND OFF. IT SEEMS TO BE HAPPENING MORE OFTEN NOW. WHEN I SHIFT MY VEHICLE INTO PARK AND TURN OFF MY CAR USING THE PUSH TO START BUTTON, A MESSAGE ON THE DASHBOARD SHOWS UP THAT SAYS "SHIFT TO PARK" EVEN THOUGH I ALREADY SHIFTED IT TO PARK. I HAVE TRIED RESTARTING IT AND TRYING TO GET THE MESSAGE TO DISAPPEAR TRYING TO SEE IF THE EMERGENCY BREAK WAS THE ISSUE. I BELIEVE THIS HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE GEAR SHIFTER AND AM AFRAID THAT THIS COULD CREATE A SAFETY CONCERN THE LONGER IT CONTINUES BECAUSE MY DASHBOARD SEEMS TO BE DISPLAYING AN INACCURATE MESSAGE. I TRIED TO SEARCH FOR RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE BUT DID NOT FIND ANY FOR THIS ISSUE; HOWEVER, I FOUND A RECALL ON THE 2014 CHEVROLET CRUZE (RECALL# 14048) THAT SEEMS TO BE A SIMILAR ISSUE THAT I AM EXPERIENCING WITH MY VEHICLE WHICH IS THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL BUT JUST A YEAR OLDER. I HAVE ALSO FOUND PLENTY OF COMPLAINTS ONLINE FROM OTHER 2013 CRUZE OWNERS AND BELIEVE THAT THE RECALL SHOULD APPLY TO THE 2013 MODEL AS WELL.

AIRBAG INFORMATION LIGHT SAYS 'AIRBAG OFF' WHEN MY 105-POUND WIFE OCCUPYS THE SEAT. THE LOCAL DEALER TELLS ME YOU HAVE TO WEIGH 130 POUNDS TO ACTIVATE THE AIRBAG.

MULTIPLE TIMES, ABOUT 6 TIMES NOW. WITH KEY IN IGNITION BUT CAR TURNED OFF, AND I MADE SURE CAR WAS OFF, CAR INGINE TRIES TO START UP.

FOR ABOUT 5 MILES THE WARNING FOR POWER STEERING WAS ON I WOULD LIKE TO REPORT THIS AS OTHERS ARE ASKING FOR A RECALL ON THIS AT THE TIME I DID NOT HAVE A PROBLEM DRIVING BUT I AM CONCERNED IF THIS HAPPENS AGAIN THE TRACTION LIGHT WAS ON AT THE SAME TIME

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE PARKING, THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF INTERMITTENTLY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS INVALID. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, THE DRIVER LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND CRASHED INTO A GUARDRAIL CAUSING SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE TO THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. DURING THE CRASH, THE DRIVER SUSTAINED A RIGHT HIP INJURY, THE FRONT PASSENGER SUSTAINED A RIGHT ARM, RIGHT HIP, AND RIGHT KNEE INJURY. THE REAR PASSENGER SEAT OCCUPANT SUSTAINED A MINOR HEAD INJURY. MEDICAL ATTENTION WAS NOT RECEIVED. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED AND A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 37,000.

THE BRAKES DO NOT WORK AFTER STARING CAR. IN REVERSE AFTER YOU TAKE CAR OUT OF GEAR. VERY LIMITED BRAKEING TO STOP THE CAR. THIS HAS BEEN A PREVIOUS RECALL IN BOTH THE 2011, 2012 YEAR MODELS. SEEMS TO BE A ISSUE ON 2013 MODEL YEAR AS WELL. IT HAPPED AS SOON AS THE BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY RAN OFF. DEALERS WANT TO CHARGE A STEEP PRICE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. I FEEL LIKE THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT AND VERY DANGEROUS ISSUE THAT CHEVROLET NEEDS TO ADDRESS AS WELL IN THE 2013 YEAR MODEL.

I WAS SLOWING DOWN FOR STOP LIGHT AND VEHICLES IN FRONT OF ME. THE VEHICLES IN FRONT OF ME STOPPED SUDDENLY, AND I PRESSED ON THE BRAKE PEDAL, BUT THE VEHICLE WASN'T SLOWING/STOPPING; I THEN PULLED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE HANDLE AND MY VEHICLE STOPPED, BUT UNFORTUNATELY IT WAS TOO LATE. I WAS AT LEAST 3-5 CAR LENGTHS AWAY FROM THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. I ENDED UP CRUSHING IN THE GRILLE IN WHICH PUSHED THE RADIATOR BACK AND THEN IT BROKE THE THERMOSTAT HOUSING AND LOST ANTIFREEZE SOON LATER WHEN DRIVING; ALL THIS BECAUSE OF NO BRAKES, AND STRIKING THE RECEIVER HITCH COVER ON THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. ALL IN ALL $2K IN DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE, AND UNDRIVEABLE. THE MAIN BRAKES DIDN'T REACT UPON PRESSING, THIS IS WAY WEIRD SINCE I'VE OWNED THE VEHICLE SINCE NEW, TO DATE NEVER NOTICED ANYTHING OUT OF THE ORDINARY. NOW, THE WEATHER WAS "HOT", IT WAS AROUND 95F AND HUMID, THE PAVEMENT WAS DRY WITHOUT RAIN. OF COURSE THE POLICE OFFICER THAT DID THE REPORT SAID THAT ALOT OF THESE MINOR FENDER BENDERS HAPPEN AT THIS SET OF STOP LIGHTS DAILY/WEEKLY DUE TO THE LIGHTS BEING TOO QUICK, AND DISTRACTED IN A HURRY DRIVERS; AND I WAS JUST A VICTIM OF CIRCUMSTANCE, BUT MY BRAKES FAILED ALSO. I AM A FAN OF THE CHEVROLET CRUZE, BUT "WOW" THIS HAPPENED, AND POSSIBLY THE BEGINNING OF ANOTHER RECALL FOR A FAULTY BRAKE/ABS SYSTEM SINCE THE EMERGENCY BRAKES DID WORK (DRUM BRAKES). THE INSURANCE COMPANY DID SAY THAT THE CAR WILL BE RAN THROUGHT THE SHOP TO CHECK THE BRAKE SYSTEM.

THE CAR BOGS DOWN IN FIRST GEAR, THIS IS A MANUAL TRANSMISSION, CAR HAS POOR POWER. THIS ALSO GIVES THE AUTOMATICS POOR POWER. THE SPARK PLUGS ARE NOT GAPPED OUT OF FACTORY. I JOINED CRUZETALK FORUMS AND MANY PEOPLE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. 2013 CRUZE LS MT IS SUPPOSED TO HAVE .028 GAP SPARK PLUGS. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND TOLD THEM. THEY RETURNED IT IN AN HOUR AND SAID THEY REGAPPED THEM FOR ME. THE PROBLEM PERSISTED. I BOUGHT THE TOOLS AND TOOK THEM OUT AND THEY WERE SET TO .025, .021, .023, .025. THE PLUGS ARE WAY OFF MARK AND THE DEALERSHIP LIED. I REGAPPED THEM TO .028 AND THE CAR NEVER RAN BETTER.

AFTER USING THE AIR CONDITIONER, EVEN FOR JUST A COUPLE MINUTES, AND TURNING IT OFF, THE WINDOWS BECOME FOGGED UP AND THE AIR IS VERY STUFFY AND WONT GO AWAY FOR AT LEAST HALF AN HOUR WITH ALL THE WINDOWS OPEN AND AIR BLOWING THROUGH THE SYSTEM.

EVEN WITH THE CLUTCH FULLY DEPRESSED, THERE IS OFTEN GRINDING BETWEEN GEARS, ESPECIALLY IN 1ST TO 2ND GEAR. I'VE BEEN EXPERIENCING THIS SINCE AT LEAST AROUND 5K MILES AND HAVE TOLD CHEVY ABOUT IT SINCE THEN. THEY REFUSED TO INSPECT IT. ALSO SOMETIMES WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY UP A HILL IN 4TH, 5TH, OR 6TH GEAR I WILL SMELL THE CLUTCH. FINALLY AT 65K MILES WHILE DRVING ON THE FREEWAY WITHOUT MY FOOT ON THE CLUTCH, DRIVING A SMOOTH 65 MPH FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES, STARTED SMELLING THE CLUTCH, THEN THE CLUTCH STOPPED WORKING AND WOULD PUSH TO THE FLOOR AND I COULDN'T CHANGE GEARS. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THE CLUTCH MELTED BECAUSE I WAS RIDING THE CLUTCH. I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY BLAMED IT ON ME. I WASN'T EVEN USING THE CLUTCH. IT HAS ALWAYS HAD PROBLEMS SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR BRAND NEW AND NOBODY WOULD LISTEN TO ME.

MY DAUGHTERS CHEVY CRUISE POWER STEERING LIGHT CAME ON AND IT BECAME DIFFICULT FOR IT TO STEER. SHE TURNED IT OFF AND IT WORKED FINE. SHE MADE APPOINTMENT AT DAY CHEVROLET IN MONROEVILLE AND THEY COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM. ALSO, THEY SAID THAT THEY HAD NEVER HEARD OF SUCH A PROBLEM. AFTER SHE LEFT IT HAPPENED AGAIN. WE GOOGLED THE PROBLEM AND FOUND IT HAS HAPPENED A LOT OF TIMES WHAT SHOULD WE DO? I DON'T WANT MY DAUGHTER IN AN ACCIDENT AND INJURED OR KILLEDTO

MY CRUZE DIED ON THE RESTAURANT PARKING LOT IN THE MIDLE OF THE BUSY FRIDAY. CAME OUT TO DRIVE , PUT THE KEY IN TO THE IGNITION, TURNED TO START AND "BOOM" EVERYTHING WENT OUT. NO POWER WAS COMMING TO ANY LITTLE OR VITAL COMPONENT OF THE CAR! CHECKED THE BATTERY - WAS GOOD! TRYED TO PULL THE KEY OUT - NO WAY! IT WAS ALMOST LIKE GLUED INSIDE THE IGNITION LOCK! EVERYTHING REMAINED DARK FOR SOME TIME, I COULD NOT RETRIVE A SINGLE SIGNAL SO HAD TO TOW TO NEAREST CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP. NO WORD ON IT YET!

WE HAVE APPROXIMATELY 28000 MILES ON OUR 2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE. TODAY, WE WERE RETURNING FROM A TRIP TO SEE FAMILY ABOUT 70 MILES AWAY AND SUFFERED A TIRE FAILURE. THE TIRE RIPPED IN THE SIDEWALL. I REPLACED IT WITH THE SPARE AND DRIVE CAREFULLY AVOIDING HIGHWAYS ON THE ROUTE HOME. UPON ARRIVING, I PROMPTLY CHECKED THE OTHER TIRES. I ALSO SEE SIGNS OF A SIMILAR SIDEWALL FAILURE BEGINNING ON THE OTHER FRONT TIRE! I LUCKILY NOTICED THE TIRE PRESSURE DROPPING AND AVOIDED A BARI ONE BLOWOUT. AFTER SEEING THE OTHER FRONT TIRE I REALIZE WE ARE LUCKY TO HAVE MADE IT HOME AND THE CAR IS PARKED UNTIL MONDAY WHEN I CAN CALL GOODYEAR AND CHEVROLET. WE WERE TRAVELING WITH OUR 7 MONTH OLD SON. I CAN'T BELIEVE THE WE RISKED HIS LIFE WITH THESE TIRES! A QUICK WEB SEARCH SHOWED ISSUES WITH CHEVY VOLTS WITH GOODYEAR ASSURANCE FUEL MAX ALSO. A SIDEWALL ISSUE AS WELL! THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR KILLED.

EVEN THOUGH THE WARNING STATED REDUCE ENGINE POWER, I COULDN'T DRIVE THE CAR. I TURNED THE CAR OFF TWICE, STILL NO POWER WHEN I APPLIED MY FOOT TO THE GAS PEDAL. I CALLED ON-STAR AND HAD MY CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THE THROTTLE BODY WAS REPLACED ON MY CAR, WHICH WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. I NOTICED FROM SEVERAL COMPLAINT SITES THAT THE INCIDENT WITH SUDDEN LOSS OR REDUCED ENGINE POWER IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE CRUZE. I'M A LITTLE AFRAID TO DRIVE MY CAR NOW FOR FEAR THAT THE INCIDENT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN AT A BUSY INTERSECTION. I HOPE THE PROBLEM WITH MY CAR IS RESOLVED WITH THE REPLACEMENT OF THE THROTTLE BODY. *TR

I WAS DRIVING HOME AND HIT AN 8 POINT BUCK THAT WEIGHED ABOUT 180LBS HEAD ON THAT CAUSED DAMAGE FROM THE MIDDLE FRONT CENTER OF THE CAR EXTENDING TO THE DRIVERS SIDE OF THE CAR AND SMASHING UP INTO THE MOTOR. THE INSTRUMENT PANEL IMMEDIATELY ILLUMINATED TO SERVICE AIRBAG BUT THE AIRBAG NEVER DEPLOYED. I WAS TOLD IF I WAS GOING SLOWER, THE DEER WOULD HAVE WENT THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD. I COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY HURT SINCE THE AIRBAG DIDN'T DEPLOY. I BOUGHT THIS CAR BRAND NEW WITH ONLY 17 MILES ON IT. I HAVE DRIVEN IT FOR 2 YEARS AND NOW HAVE TO WONDER IF MY FAMILY AND I WERE PUT AT RISK FOR THE LAST TWO YEARS, WHILE TRAVELING TO OHIO, FROM IOWA AND OUT TO BOISE 3 TIMES. OF COURSE I WILL BE TOLD THERE IS NOTHING WRONG AND THE CAR WILL BE REPAIRED, AND I WILL BE FORCED TO CONTINUE DRIVING A CAR THAT I WON'T REALLY FEEL SAFE IN BECAUSE I WON'T KNOW FOR SURE IF THE AIRBAG SYSTEM IS FIXED, AND WILL WORK RIGHT IF THIS UNFORTUNATELY WILL EVER HAPPEN AGAIN. SOMEHOW THIS WILL BE PUSHED UNDER THE RUG AND THERE WILL BE NOTHING I CAN DO ABOUT IT. *TR

I BOUGHT MY 2013 CRUZE IN JUNE 2014, WITH AROUND 40K MILES ON IT. IN SEPTEMBER THE CAR BEGAN HAVING ISSUES. AT FIRST IT WAS JUST THAT THE RADIO AND ALL DASH LIGHTS WOULD SHUT OFF. THEN I HAD MULTIPLE SERVICE LIGHTS THAT WOULD FLASH RANDOMLY. THOSE INCLUDED STABILITRAK, TRACTION CONTROL, POWER STEERING AND SECURITY SYSTEM. AT ONE POINT, WHILE DRIVING IN A PARKING LOT, MY POWER STEERING COMPLETELY LOCKED UP. MY CAR EVENTUALLY STOPPED STARTING. I WAS STRANDED AT SCHOOL AND HAD TO CALL A TOW TRUCK. WHEN THIS HAPPENED, MY KEY ACTUALLY GOT STUCK IN THE IGNITION. I WAS ABLE TO JUMP THE CAR AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES OF TRYING, BUT IT WOULD NOT KEEP POWER. I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP, BUT THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT (NO CODES EVEN CAME UP ON THE COMPUTER) AND IT RAN JUST FINE FOR THEM. I DROVE THE CAR HOME, AND THE NEXT DAY HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS TIME AFTER ABOUT 30 MINUTES OF TRYING TO GET THE CAR TO START, IT DID, SO I DROVE IT STRAIGHT TO A CHEVY SHOP. AGAIN, THEY COULDN'T FIND ANY CODES, BUT SAID THEY REPLACED SOME WIRING AND CLEARED THE COMPUTER. I DIDN'T HAVE ANYMORE PROBLEMS UNTIL LAST WEEK, WHEN IT ALL STARTED HAPPENING AGAIN. I'VE HAD THE POWER STEERING LOCK UP ON ME IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION! THE WEIRD THING IS, WHEN MY CAR DOESN'T WANT TO START, ALL I HAVE TO DO IS USE THE LITTLE ELECTRICAL KNOB THAT MOVES THE DRIVERS SIDE SEAT BACK AND FORTH, AND EVERYTHING FIRES UP. GM NEEDS TO FIGURE THIS OUT BECAUSE IT'S BOUND TO KILL SOMEONE! *TR

MY VEHICLE WAS NOT FILED IN THE RECALL LIST BUT HAS THE SAME ISSUE AS A DRIVE TRAIN RECALL (13V452000). MY VEHICLE WHEN SHIFTING GEARS COMPLETELY LOST POWER AND NO LONGER GOES INTO 5TH OR 6TH GEAR. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP LIKE GM ASKED ME BUT UNFORTUNATELY THEY INFORMED ME THAT MY CLUTCH WAS NOT COVERED. TO ME THIS IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUES THAT COULD HAVE RESULTED IN MY FAMILY AND I BEING SERIOUSLY INJURED IF I WAS IN A DIFFERENT SITUATION. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE MY VEHICLE BE FIXED LIKE ALL THE OTHER VEHICLES THAT WAS RECALLED WITH THIS SAME ISSUES, I DON'T SEE WHY IF THE ISSUES ISN'T DIFFERENT WHY MY VEHICLE SHOULD BE EXCLUDED. *JS
