BOUGHT THIS CAR USED WITH 51K MILES A MONTH AGO. DROVE GREAT THE FIRST WEEK, AFTER THAT LOSES POWERUPON ACCELERATION AND IS SLOW TO GET UP TO SPEED. WHILE DRIVING JUST NOW, THE CAR WAS LOSING POWER SO I DECIDED TO HIT THE GAS HARDER AND INSTEAD OF GOING FASTER THE THE STABILITY TRACK LIGHT CAME ON. I AM STARTING TO WONDER IF I MADE A BAD DECISION PURCHASING THIS CAR. IT HAD TROUBLE GOING UP HILL ON THE HIGHWAY LAST WK. THIS CAR IS TOO COMPACT TO HAVE SPEED ISSUES.

WORST CAR I'VE EVER HAD. MY DREAM CAR HAS TURNED INTO MY REAL LIFE NIGHTMARE. I WILL NEVER BUY ANTHER GM/ CHEVY VEHICLE. GM/CHEVY WON'T DO ANYTHING TO HELP REMEDY PROBLEMS KNOWN PROBLEMS TO THEM. OH AND THEN SHOP SAYS WATER PUMP IS GOING OUT SO ON WEBSITE IT SHOWS IT HAS SPECIAL COVERAGE UNDER RECALLS I GUESS BUT I HAVE TO PAY TO GET IT DIAGNOSED AND NOW I'M SCARED TO EVEN PUT MORE MONEY INTO IT AS I'M NOT SURE ANY OF THIS WILL ACTUALLY FIX THE CAR I'VE READ HORROR STORY AFTER HORROR STORY OF STORIES JUST LIKE MY MINE. AND YET GM/ CHEVY DOES NOTHING AND IS STILL ABLE TO SELL THESE LEMON CARS TO PEOPLE. I MEAN HOW MANY COMPLAINTS AND SAFETY ISSUES DOES THIS COMPANY HAVE TO GET BEFORE THEY WILL DO SOMETHING. I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M OUT OVER 12000 DOLLARS FOR A CAR WITH MAINT FREE TRANSMISSION WITH 94000 MILES. I NOW HAVE A 13000 DOLLAR PIECE OF JUNK THAT I BEGINNING TO BELIEVE THAT CAN NOT BE FIXED

THIS VEHICLE SAFETY COMPLAINT IS IN REGARDS TO MY 2011 CHEVROLET CRUZE LT, WHICH WAS SERVICED AT OURISMAN CHEVROLET OF BOWIE, A GENERAL MOTORS (GM) AUTHORIZED DEALER, FOR THE REPAIR OF MY VEHICLE. I INCURRED CHARGES FOR UNWARRANTED MAINTENANCE REPAIRS ON THE FOLLOWING DATES SEPTEMBER 26-OCTOBER 5, 2016 ($134.95 AND $139.07 (COST FOR A NEW BATTERY)), APRIL 26, 2016 (WARRANTY COVERED REPAIRS), APRIL 11, 2016 ($590.92), AND APRIL 14, 2015 ($382.14) THAT NEVER ADDRESSED THE SAFETY COMPLAINTS I MADE, ALL OF WHICH WERE HANDLED BY SERVICE ADVISOR BUDDY REIO. ON THESE DATES, I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO BE SERVICED FOR EXPERIENCING HAZARDOUS ISSUES WITH ITS ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS AND REDUCED ENGINE ACCELERATION WHILE I WAS DRIVING BETWEEN 40-55 MILES PER HOUR. WITHOUT WARNING, MY VEHICLE'S SPEED WOULD DECELERATE (BOTH ON THE HIGHWAY AND RESIDENTIAL ROADS) AND MY CAR DOORS WOULD BEGIN TO LOCK AND UNLOCK UNCONTROLLABLY WITH ERROR MESSAGES 'SERVICE STABILITRAC,' 'SERVICE PARKING ASSIST,' AND 'SERVICE AIRBAG' DISPLAYING ON MY DASHBOARD. AFTER ABOUT 30 SECONDS OF THIS CONDITION, MY CAR WOULD RESUME NORMAL FUNCTIONING. I INCURRED $1,247.08 IN UNWARRANTED REPAIRS FOR MY VEHICLE, WHICH WAS NEVER PROPERLY DIAGNOSED, LEADING TO MY VEHICLE SHUTTING DOWN WHILE I WAS DRIVING IT ON OCTOBER 22, 2016. ON OCTOBER 22, 2016 AT 3:20 P.M., WHILE DRIVING ON A BUSY THOROUGHFARE, MY CAR DECELERATED AND ERROR MESSAGES DISPLAYING 'SERVICE STABILITRAC,' 'SERVICE PARKING ASSIST,' AND 'SERVICE AIRBAG' SHOWED. AFTER APPROXIMATELY 30 SECONDS, THE CAR BEGAN TO SHUT DOWN AND I MANAGED TO STEER IT OUT OF THE WAY OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC. I IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED CHEVROLET'S ROADSIDE SERVICE AND INFORMED THE REPRESENTATIVES THAT MY ENGINE WOULD NOT START AND I WAS STUCK ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD.

I HAVE BEEN HAVING SEVERAL ISSUES LATELY THAT ARE NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY WITH MY CAR. POWER TRAIN ISSUES, STABILITY ISSUES, SENSOR ISSUES. THESE ISSUES HAVE HAPPENED ON AND OFF AND SOME HAVE BEEN FIXED BEFORE AND THEY KEEP GETTING WORSE. THE CAR STARTS SHAKING REALLY BAD WHEN I AM DRIVING. IT DOES NOT FEEL SAFE. *TR

SINCE PURCHASING THIS VEHICLE THERE HAS ALWAYS BEEN A HESITATION IN THE ACCELERATION AND "ENGINE JERKING". I ORIGINALLY REPORTED WITHIN THE FIRST APPROX 6 MONTHS OF OWNING THE VEHICLE. THE SERVICE CENTER HAD THEIR TRANSMISSION SPECIALIST DRIVE THE VEHICLE AND I WAS TOLD "THAT IS JUST HOW IT DRIVES. I TOLD THEM ON A SECOND TIME ABOUT THE ONGOING ISSUES AND WAS DISMISSED. LAST YEAR I STARTED GETTING THE "SERVICE STABILITRAK" ERROR AND THE JERKING AND LACK OF ACCELERATION AND HESITATION HAS GOTTEN INCREASINGLY WORSE. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN AS TRYING TO GO FROM A STOPPED POSITION AND GOING THROUGH AN INTERSECTION IT WILL LAG AND CAN CAUSE A DELAY ALSO DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD IT WILL JERK AND ALMOST FEEL LIKE I COULD LOSE CONTROL OF THE CAR. I OFTEN ALSO GET A SMELL OF THE COOLANT THAT GOES THROUGH MY CAR. I HAVE HAD ALL RECALLS IN THE PAST TAKEN CARE OF, BUT THE STABILITRAK IS AN ONGOING ISSUE THAT IS VERY CONCERNING FOR THE SAFETY OF MYSELF AND MY DAUGHTER AS A PASSENGER IN THE VEHICLE. IT HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE SINCE THE PURCHASE OF THE VEHICLE 05/2011 ONLY INCREASING IN SEVERITY. *TR

LOSS OF POWER STEERING DURING DRIVING, RADIO FLICKERS ON AND OFF WHILE DRIVING, WHILE PRESSING BRAKE WHILE STOPPED THE CAR CONTINUES TO JUMP FORWARD - CITY DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AND STREETS. BEGAN HAPPENING ONE MONTH AFTER I PURCHASED CAR ON 4/3/2016.

THE RADIO/HVAC DISPLAY TURNS OFF AND ON; THE ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM, SERVICE TRACTION SYSTEM, SERVICE STABILITRAC AND STEERING VEHICLE MESSAGES COMES ON AND OFF; THE TURN SIGNAL SOUND MAY NOT BE HEARD; 'BATTERY SAVER ACTIVE' AND 'SERVICE STEERING' DISPLAYS IN THE DRIVER INFORMATION CENTER (DIC); AND THE INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR LIGHTING MAY FLICKER. POWER STEERING ASSIST IS ALSO LOST, AND GREATER EFFORT MAY BE NEEDED TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL AT LOW SPEEDS OR WHILE THE VEHICLE IS STOPPED. THIS ONLY HAPPENS IN THE SUMMER. DOING SPEEDS OF 65MPH. THE CAR LOSES POWER AND THEN THE DASH BOARD AND RADION FLICKERS ON AND OFF. THE CARS SOMETIMES SHUTS OFF AND I WILL HAVE TO PUT MY HAZARDS MARKER ON THE LET THE CAR PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AND IM NOT ABLE TO TAKE THE KEY OUT THE IGNITION. THE KEY WILL GET STUCK AND ABOUT 3 MINUTES LATER I TRYING AGAIN AND THE KEY WILL COME OUT. I TRY TO START IT UP AGAIN AND THE CAR WILL START UP. THE STEERING WILL LOCK UP WHILE IM TRYING TO TURN OR IS TURNING THE IT WILL GO BACK TO REGULAR STATE. IT ONLY DOES THIS IN THE SUMMER OR WHEN THE CAR GETS HOT. SO I TOOK I TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT WAS MY NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE. THIS IS UNSAFE. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR ALMOST A 1 YEAR IT STARTS AND STOPS WHEN IT WANTS TOO. ALSO WHEN IM STOPPED OR SITTING AT A STOP LIGHT THE MATTERS ARE EVEN WORSER

CAR WILL SLOW TO 2 MPH WITH THE WARNINGS "LOW ENGINE MODE" AND "SERVICE STABILITRACK". CAN BE GOING ANY SPEED AND THIS HAPPENS. HAVE HAD THE CAR TOWED 3 TIMES FOR THIS SAME PROBLEM. EACH TIME THEY TELL US IT IS ANOTHER PART THAT IS DEFECTIVE. WE HAVE SPENT APPROXIMATELY $2,000 ON REPAIRS FOR THIS SAME ISSUE. MY MAIN CONCERN IS THAT MY [XXX] YEAR OLD SON WHO DRIVES THIS VEHICLE IS GOING TO GET KILLED. IF THIS HAPPENS ON A HIGHWAY WITH A SEMI BEHIND HIM, THE SEMI WILL NOT BE ABLE TO SLOW DOWN TO THAT SPEED THAT FAST AND WILL RUN RIGHT OVER HIM. THERE ARE NUMEROUS REPORTS OF THIS SAME ISSUE ON 2011-2015 CRUZE VEHICLES THAT YOU CAN FIND ANYWHERE ON THE INTERNET (EVEN ON GM FORUM). I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE TO DIE FROM THIS ISSUE BEFORE A RECALL IS MADE ON THESE VEHICLES? *JS 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).*CC

INTERMITTENT SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL AND STABILITRAK WHILE AT A STOP WHEN ATTEMPTING TO DRIVE AFTER THE SERVICE LIGHT CAME ON THE VEHICLE LACKED POWER AND HIGH TEMP FAN TURN ON. THE ONLY WAY TO GET THE CAR OUT OF THE SERVICE LOCK WAS TO TURN THE IGNITION OFF AND TURN IT BACK ON. I TOOK THE CAR TO A DEALER WHERE THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE ISSUE. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN COVERED UNDER A RECALL ON OTHER CHEVY VEHICLES SUCH AS THE EQUINOX.

ON THESE TWO DAYS I WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE ONE AGAIN, AND LOST CONTROL OVER THE VEHICLE STEERING AND THROTTLE. THE ISSUE OCCURS AT STOP SIGNS TO CAUSE AN ACCIDENT THERE OR AT A INTERSECTION. THE VEHICLE IS PURPOSELY TAMPERED WITH DURING TRANSIT TO CAUSE LOSS OF CONTROL AND THROTTLE. THE VEHICLE THROTTLE IS GONE, THE GAS PEDDLE GOES LIMP AND THE ENGINE STOPS THROTTLE FOR A DURATION. THE ENGINE THEN KICKS IN FULL FORCE AFTER A SERIES OF HARD SPUTTERS ON THROTTLE JERKING THE CAR FORWARD UP A HILL OR INTO TO A STOP.

I FRIGHTENED AND ALMOST HIT A PEDESTRIAN WHILE AT A COMPLETE STOP DURING A RED LIGHT BECAUSE THE VEHICLE JERKED BACK AND FORTH. THE VEHICLE FELT AS IF IT WAS ON HYDRAULICS. MOMENTS LATER THE ENGINE LIGHT WENT ON AND THE DESCRIPTION OF SERVICE STABILTRAK DISPLAYED ON THE DASHBOARD. ONCE THE LIGHT WAS GREEN AND I PROCEEDED, ENGINE LIGHT WENT OFF AND SERVICE CONTROL ALSO WENT AWAY. IT WOULD ONLY JERK BACK AND FORTH ONCE AT A COMPLETE STOP. MY VEHICLE IS DEFINITELY A HAZARD AND NOT SAFE TO DRIVE.

WHILE DRIVING THE RADIO SHUTS OFF AND A WARNING POPS UP IN THE CENTER BETWEEN THE SPEEDOMETER AND RPM GAUGE THAT SAYS SERVICE STABILTRAC OR SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL. WHILE THAT HAPPENS THE POWER STEERING SHUTS OFF. THAT'S A NORMAL OCCURRENCE THAT HAPPENS RANDOMLY ONCE OR TWICE DURING MY 20 MILE DRIVE TO WORK, AND ON SHORT DRIVES FOR ERRANDS.
