THE CHEVROLET CRUZE'S WATER COOLANT OUTLET HAS CRACKED THREE TIMES NOW. THIS IS A PLASTIC PIECE THAT CRACKS UNDER HEAT AND LEAKS RADIATOR FLUID.

THE CAR ENGINE HAS SHUT OFF TWICE IN 2 WEEKS WHILE MAKING A RIGHT TURN ON AN INCLINE. I SLOWED DOWN TO MAKE THE TURN/CURVE AND THEN STEPPED ON THE GAS AND THE CAR DIED. THE DASH AND RADIO STAY ON, BUT NO POWER TO ENGINE. NO SERVICE LIGHTS STAY LITE ON THE DASH. YOU HAVE TO TURN THE KEY OFF, PUT IN PARK, OPEN DOOR SO RADIO TURNS OFF, GIVE A MIN AND RESTART. THE FIRST TIME I WAS PULLING OFF A SIDE ROAD ONTO A BUSY ROAD, BUT I DIDN'T DO A COMPLETE STOP BECAUSE TRAFFIC WAS CLEAR. I WAS GOING 10-15MPH. THE SECOND TIME I WAS ON A SIDE ROAD GOING ABOUT 25-30 MPH. IT WAS JUST A MILDLY SHARP CURVE.

NO REIMBURSEMENT FOR SAME ISSUE, SAME ERROR CODE. IF I'M BEING TOLD BY DIFFERENT BODY SHOPS THAT THEY CONTINUALLY SEE THE SAME ISSUE WITH CHEVY CRUZE'S, BEING THE LOSS OF TURBO BOOST. SHOULDN'T IT BE A PART OF THE RECALL FOR 2013&14 OR AT LEAST BE MADE A RECALL ITSELF. MINE IS A 2011 WITH THE SAME ERROR CODE READ AS THE RECALL WITH 2013'S. MY TURBO WAS REPLACED RIGHT BEFORE THANKSGIVING. HAPPY HOLIDAYS SMH!

DIRECT IMPACT WITH 1200 POUND COW WHILE DRIVING ON A STATE HIGHWAY, THE AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY. ENTIRE CAR ENGULFED IN FLAMES AS THE ENGINE IMMEDIATELY STARTED FIRE. TOTALLED. WHY DIDN'T THE AIRBAG DEPLOY? SERIOUS INJURY. SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. I HAVE PURCHASED 2 CRUZE'S BECAUSE OF THE SAFETY FEATURES. THIS IS SO NOT SAFE AND SO UNACCEPTABLE

WHILE DRIVING THE ENGINE TOTALLY LOOSES POWER AND THE ENTIRE CAR IS SHUT OFF AND COMES TO A STOP. LOTS OF ELECTRICAL MESSAGES SHOW UP, AND SOMETIMES THE KEY CANNOT COME OUT OF IGNITION. AFTER AN HOUR, SOMETIMES IT WILL RESTART. I HAVE HAD IT TOWED THREE TIMES TO THE DEALER. AT FIRST THEY THOUGHT IT WAS THE NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE, BUT ITS STILL HAS THE PROBLEM. STARTING TO NOT BE ABLE TO TRUST THIS CAR AS ITS A HAZARD TO DRIVE NOT KNOWING WHEN IT WILL CUT OUT AND JUST STOP WITH NO POWER TO EVEN HAVE WINDOWS ROLL UP.

LOOSING ANTIFREEZE, CONSTANTLY OVERHEATING AND MAY HAVE BLOWN HEAD GASKET IN MOTION AND SITTING STILL. I AM VERY DISSATISFIED WITH THE PURCHASE OF THIS CAR! IT HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT TROUBLE AND VERY COSTLY BUYING ANTIFREEZE ONCE A WEEK AT $20.00 A JUG FOR HALF AND HALF. I HOPE AND PRAY THAT THIS ENGINE WILL BE RECALLED!!!

2016 ECM REPROGRAMMING RECALL EVER SINCE I BROUGHT MY CAR IN FOR THE RECALL IN 2016 TO HAVE THE ECM REPROGRAMMED, I HAVE HAD SEVERE ISSUES WITH VERY ROUGH IDLING, SLOW ACCELERATION, AND INCONSISTENT FUEL USAGE. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND LISTS SEVERAL SENSORS THAT NEED TO BE REPLACED. WE REPLACED ALL OF THEM AND THE PROBLEM STILL COMES BACK. NOW THE CODES INDICATE THERE IS A CATASTROPHIC ISSUE WITH THE ECM AND CHEVY WILL NOT COVER IT EVEN THOUGH THIS ISSUE STARTED FROM THEIR OWN RECALL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET CRUZE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO COURTESY CHEVROLET (1233 E CAMELBACK RD, PHOENIX, AZ 85014, (602) 457-3232) FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE INTAKE MANIFOLDS AND PCV VALVE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE REPAIRED TWICE FOR THIS FAILURE WITHIN A 45,000 TO 50,000 MILE RANGE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 124,000.

WE HAVE HAD AN ISSUE WITH A CHEMICAL SMELL WHEN THE DEFROST IS ON SINCE WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN SEPTEMBER 2015. WHEN TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY REASON FOR THE SMELL. IT FOGS THE WINDSHIELD WITH A FILM, CAUSES HEADACHES AND LIGHT HEADEDNESS. IT IS WHAT I BELIEVE TO BE THE SMELL OF COOLANT BURNING, BUT NOTHING WAS EVER FOUND SO WE JUST CONTINUED TO DRIVE IT. ON 8/15/2018, THE FAN KICKED ON VERY HIGH, WE RECEIVED THE AC WAS BEING SHUT OFF ERROR DUE TO THE TEMPERATURE AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THE VERY ODD THING ABOUT THIS IS THAT THE TEMPERATURE NEVER SHOWED IT WAS HIGH. THE GAUGE SHOWED 1 LINE OVER HALF TOWARDS THE HOT SIDE. GOT IT HOME AND LET IT COOL DOWN AND REALIZED THE COOLANT RESERVOIR WAS EMPTY. I REFILLED IT AND THE FAN WENT BACK TO RUNNING AS IT NORMALLY WOULD. I DECIDED TO CHECK IT AGAIN TODAY AND THE RESERVOIR WAS EMPTY AGAIN. I HAVE NOT HAD IT LOOKED AT AGAIN YET, BUT I THINK MAYBE THE INITIAL COOLANT ISSUE JUST BECAME A LARGER ONE. I HAVE SEEN MULTIPLE PEOPLE COMPLAIN OF BOTH OF THESE ISSUES. HAS THERE NOT BEEN ANY RECALL FOR THIS? I AM GOING TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT AGAIN BUT I FEEL LIKE FOR THE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE WITH THESE ISSUES WITH THIS YEAR OF CRUZE SOMETHING SHOULD HAVE BEEN DONE BY NOW TO RESOLVE THIS.

NHTSA ODI 11121236

I PUT $20 IN GAS IN THE VEHICLE ON MY WAY TO WORK. WHEN I PULLED OUT INTO TRAFFIC, THE CAR JERKED VIOLENTLY, THEN PROCEEDED TO BUCK AND IDLE FUNNY ALL THE WAY TILL I GOT TO WORK. FROM THAT DAY TILL NOW, EVERYTIME I STOP AT A RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGN, IT STALLS UNLESS I KEEP GAS PETAL PRESSED DOWN.

VEHICLE WAS ON HIGHWAY GOING TO LEXINGTON KY FROM LOUISVILLE KY. CAR BEGIN TO SMOKE. HOSE THAT WAS SUPPOSEDLY FIXED ON RADIATOR WAS RIGGED AND OIL SPILLED FROM THE HOSE CAUSING IT TO GO INTO ENGINE. ENGINE OVERHEATED WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY. ENGINE DIED. HAD TO GET CAR TOWED FROM ONE CITY TO THE NEXT. GOT STRANDED IN ANOTHER TOWN BECAUSE COULD NOT OBTAIN A RENTAL CAR BECAUSE THEY WERE CLOSED. SINCE 2016 I HAVE SPENT OVER $7000 ON GETTING THE SAME ISSUES OR RELATED ISSUES FIXED. I HAVE SPENT OVER $5000 IN RENTAL CARS AND I STILL OWE $9000 ON MY CAR WHICH I PURCHASED FROM BALES AUTOMALL/BACHMAN IN JEFFERSONVILLE INDIANA IN 2014 WITH ON 28,000 MILES. I HAVE KEPT MY SERVICES UP TO DATE ON THE VEHICLE AND HAVE DOCUMENTATION FOR THAT. IT SEEMS ONCE I BEGIN TO GET OIL CHANGES AT THIS LOCATION MY CAR BEGIN TO DECLINE. I WOULD BE TOLD THAT I HAD ONE PROBLEM, THEY WOULD FIX IT, AND THEN SOMETHING ELSE WOULD HAPPEN. IN ADDITION, I HAVE A WITNESS WHO IS A FAMILY MEMBER WHO IS EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEMS WITH THE SAME YEAR AND MODEL CAR THAT SHE OWNS. I SEE HER GOING THROUGH THE SAME DOWN SPIRAL STEPS WITH HER CAR AS I DID. IT IS ALMOST LIKE CLOCKWORK. I HAVE READ CONSUMER REPORTS ABOUT THESE VEHICLES AND NONE HAVE BEEN POSITIVE. IN FACT, MANY WHO HAVE A TURBO ENGINE WILL OR HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS SAME ISSUE. THE CAR IS A LEMON... IT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED!! IT IS UNFAIR THAT I PURCHASED A CAR THAT WAS NO GOOD AND THAT ONLY RAN GOOD FOR TWO YEARS BEFORE HAVING TO REPLACE THE TURBO TWICE AND THE ENGINE. LET ME REITERATE.. I STILL OWE $9000 ON THIS CAR. AT THIS POINT I AM CLUELESS AND I FEEL AS IF I WAS TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF. WHEN I REPORTED THIS TO THE BBB;GMC AND OTHER SOURCES THEY LED ME ON FOR WEEKS KNOWING THAT THEY WOULD NOT ASSIST IN THE MATTER. BECAUSE OF THIS WHOLE FIASCO I HAVE ANXIETY IN WHICH I AM TAKING MEDICATION. PLEASE HELP DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO

I BOUGHT THE 2011 CHEVROLET CRUZ IN 2014, I USED THE CAR PRIMARILY FOR WORK SO THROUGHOUT THE FIRST FEW YEARS I DIDN'T NOTICE ANYTHING STRANGE AS IT REMAINED PARKED MOST THE TIME. WHEN I DID START DRIVING IT AS A PRIMARY VEHICLE THE FIRST ISSUE I HAD WAS THE CLUTCH AND GEAR SYSTEM SEEMED TO BE TOUCHY WHEN THE CAR WAS IN PARK, RESORTING TO ME USING THE EMERGENCY BRAKE EVERY TIME I WOULD PARK IT. AT THE TIME IT DIDN'T SEEM TO BE A BIG ISSUE AS IT BECAME A HABIT. IN 2016 SHORTLY AFTER THIS MY OIL CONSUMPTION AND TURBO FAILED, AND THE VEHICLES EXHAUST STARTED BLOWING BLUE SMOKE AND THE CAR LOST ALL POWER. AS THIS WAS A NEW CAR I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC AND HAD VEHICLES TURBO REPLACED. JUST OVER A YEAR LATER IN 2018 THE VEHICLE IS EXHIBITING THE EXACT SAME EFFECTS SUCH AS REMOVING AND REPLACING THE ECO,1.4L ENGINE, TURBOCHARGER, EVACUATE AND REPLACE AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM, AND TRANSFER OF THE FUEL AND ELECTRICAL ASSEMBLIES AND ENGINE MOUNTS. I'M ALMOST CERTAIN THIS CAR IS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDS TO BE RECALLED.

NOT EVEN 30 DAYS WHEN I WAS DRIVING TO GO TO WORK SOMETHING POPPED UP ON MY SCREEN SAYING A/C CUTTING OFF DUE TO ENGINE OVER HEATING. I PULLED OVER AND CALLED AEVEREX AND PEPBOYS AND WAS TOLD TO NOT DRIVE THE CAR.

I ALSO EMAILED THE GM AND EXPLAINED MY ISSUE AND WAS TOLD THAT THEIR WAS NO RECALL ON MY CAR WHICH I FIND TO BE UNTRUE. SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THIS CAR. I ALSO HAVE THE PAPERS FROM PEP BOYS ON WHAT WAS DONE THE 1ST TIME. ONCE I GET IT TO THE SHOP TOMMOROW I WILL UPDATE WHAT WAS DONE AGAIN.

AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE AND DRIVING FORWARD THE DASH SCREEN STARTED TO SHOW DIFFERENT "CHECK" WARNINGS. CHECK STABILITY CONTROL, CHECK POWER STEERING. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AS SO DID MOST OF THE DASH INDICATOR LIGHTS. THE POWER STEERING STOPPED AND THE ENGINE TEMPORARILY QUIT. THE ENGINE RESPONDED AGAIN AND WHILE DRIVING THE DASH WENT DARK AND THE CAR DIED. I HAD TO TURN THE IGNITION OFF AND RESTART THE CAR. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THIS HAS OCCURRED. THE LAST EVENT WAS WHILE DRIVING THROUGH A PARKING LOT.
