I'VE HAD MY 2014 CHEVY CRUZE FOR ABOUT 2 YEARS NOW. BACK IN DECEMBER 2018 IT STARTED HAVING A LOT OF ISSUES. ANTIFREEZE WAS POURING OUT, IT WAS SPITTING AND SPUTTERING, ROUGH IDLE,AND OVERHEATING, MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH CHEVY DEALERSHIP. THEY HAD MY CAR ABOUT A WEEK. THE SAID WATER PUMP WAS FAILING,THERMOSTAT WAS OUT, COOLER OUTLET HOSES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. NOT EVEN 12 HOURS LATER I WAS TAKING IT BACK IN FOR THE SAME PROBLEMS. ENGINE LIGHTS WERE STILL COMING ON. THIS TIME THEY FIXED THE OIL COOLER LINE, AND CRANKSHAFT. A FEW DAYS PASSED AND AGAIN I WAS STILL HAVING THE SAME ISSUES. TOOK IT BACK, AND THEY FIXED THE CRANKCASE VENTALATION, CAMSHAFT COVER, INTAKE MANIFOLDINTAKE AIR PRESSURE SENSOR. MAYBE 2 WEEKS PASSED AND I FINALLY GOT UPSET AND TOOK IT 45 MINS TO ANOTHER SHOP, WITHIN A FEW HOURS I GOT A CALL THAT MY HEAD GASKET WAS BLOWN. I WAS STILL HAVING ALL THE SAME ISSUES AS I DID WHEN IT FIRST MESSED UP. I ENDED UP HAVING TO TAKE IT BACK TO THE OTHER DEALERSHIP WHO HAD BEEN WORKING ON IT. THEY KEPT ME CAR FOR 29 DAYS WHILE FIXING MY BLOWN HEAD GASKET. THEY RESURFACED IT AND FIXED CLAMPS. WELL, THURSDAY JULY 11 I WAS AT MY BOSSES HOUSE TRYING TO BACK UP UNDER A SHADE TREE. WHEN I STARTED THE CAR, IT SOUNDED HORRIBLE. IT WAS JUST SPITTING AND SPUTTERING. I OUT IT IN REVERSE AND HIT THE GAS. MY CAR STARTED ROLLING TOWARD! IT WOULD NOT BACK IT. I WENT TO HIT THE BRAKE AND IT DID NOTHING. I HAD TO PULL MY EMERGANCY BREAK BEFORE I RAN INTO HER FENSE.I IMMEDIATELY GOT ON THE PHONE WITH THE DEALERSHIP 45 MINS AWAY. SET MY APPOINTMENT UP. LATER THAT NIGHT ON THE WAY TO TAKE MY KIDS TO VBS, WE WERE STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT. WHILE TRYING TO CROSS OVER A MAIN HIGHWAY THE CAR JUST STARTED SPITTING AND SPUTTERING. IT WAS BARELY MOVING EVEN THOUGH I HAD THE GAS PEDAL TO THE FLOOR. GOT IT TO DEALERSHIP 45 MINS AWAY FRIDAY 12TH. ANOTHE BLOWN HEAD GASKET. THAT CAR IS NOT SAFE

HAD STARTED NOTICING THAT WHEN I WOULD START MY CAR MY RADIO WOULD SOMETIMES TAKE A LONG TIME TO COME ON. EVENTUALLY WOKE UP ONE DAY TO START MY CAR AND IT WOULD NOT START. THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING BECAUSE THE BATTERY IS NOT EVEN A YEAR OLD. USED MY PORTABLE JUMPER TO CHARGER AND TOOK IT TO GET READ AND IT WAS NOT THE BATTERY. I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS AN ELECTRICAL DRAIN THAT WAS STILL CHARGING MY BATTERY EVEN AFTER IT WAS TURNED OFF. THE SECOND ISSUE IS WHEN I AM DRIVING AND GO TO GIVE THE CAR GAS AND THE CAR WOULD NOT IMMEDIATELY ACCELERATE CAUSING TO ME TO ALMOST BE HIT TWICE. I HAD TO GIVE IT GAS A SECOND TIME IN ORDER FOR IT TO ACCELERATE

I RECENTLY HAD AN ISSUE WITH MY TURBO BECOMING DEFECTIVE THAT I LATER FOUND OUT THE PART WAS ON A NATIONAL BACK ORDER AND THAT THE MANUFACTURER KNEW THAT IT HAD A MANUFACTURING FLAW CAUSING MULTIPLE TURBOS TO BECOME DEFECTIVE. THIS IS A COSTLY PART TO REPLACE AND WITH IT BEING ON A NATIONAL BACK ORDER HAS CAUSED A MAJOR INCONVENIENCE THAT HAS ALSO TRIGGERED MULTIPLE PARTS TO GO OUT LIKE MY IGNITION COIL AS WELL AS MY CATALYTIC CONVERTER THIS HAS ALSO CAUSED MY CAR TO OVERHEAT. AS OF RIGHT NOW THERE IS STILL NO NEWS ON WHEN THIS PART IS GOING TO BE AVAILABLE, WE ARE ONLY TOLD THAT THE PART IS BEING REMADE TO SUSTAIN THE STRESS OF THE EXTRA WORK THAT WAS NOT ORIGINALLY PLANNED FOR OUR ORIGINAL PART TO SUSTAIN.

THE CAR STARTED MAKING A WHISTLING NOISE, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND IT ACTS LIKE IT WANTS TO CUT OFF AT STOPS.

DRIVING HOME AT 9PM ON A HIGH SPEED/TRAFFIC HIGHWAY, WE HAD ALL ELECTRICITY/STEERING SUDDENLY GO OUT, THEN WHEN IT CAME BACK ON POPPED UP WITH A "SERVICE STABILITRAK " MESSAGE. LUCKILY, IT CAME BACK ON BEFORE A WRECK BUT SCARED ALL OF US TO PIECES. THE CAR WAS BEING DRIVEN AT THE POSTED 70MPH SPEED LIMIT, BUT STARTED TO DECELERATE WHEN POWER WAS LOST. THIS HAPPENED ON 07/08/19. TODAY, 07/11/19 WE HAD TO JUMP THE CAR AND THE TURN SIGNALS NO LONGER DO THE LITTLE "CLICK" NOISE, AND THE DASH SCREEN/BACKUP CAMERA WON'T COME ON, ALTHOUGH THE RADIO STILL SOMEHOW WORKS. ALSO ON LUNCH BREAK TODAY, CAR WAS DEAD, KEY WOULDN'T COME OUT OF THE IGNITION TILL THE CAR WAS JUMP STARTED. AS THIS SEEMS TO BE A MAJOR ISSUE WITH THE CAR, WHY HASN'T IT BEEN RECALLED?

TURBOCHARGER IS FAULTY AND CAUSING CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TO COME ON. CHEVROLET IS TELLING ME I HAVE TO CONTINUE TO DRIVE MY CAR FOR AT LEAST ANOTHER 2-3 MONTHS BEFORE THE PART WILL BE IN BECAUSE THOUSANDS ARE WAITING ON THIS SAME PART FOR THE SAME MODEL YEAR CAR. I'VE PUT IN A CASE WITH THEM AND THEY SEEM TO BE IN NO HURRY TO GIVE ME ANSWERS ON HOW LONG THIS WILL ACTUALLY TAKE AND WHEN I CAN EXPECT MY CAR TO BE SAFE AGAIN. WITHOUT A LONER CAR, I FEEL VERY UNEASY ABOUT DRIVING MY BROKEN VEHICLE AND THEY ARE ACTING LIKE THIS IS NO BIG DEAL.

THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH HOW THE CAR IS COMMUNICATING WITH THE ANTI THEFT SYSTEM, AT LEAST THAT'S WHAT I AM SUSPECTING. RANDOMLY, WHEN I TRY TO START THE CAR THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS COME ON, THE RADIO, AND EVERYTHING ELSE EXCEPT THE ENGINE WON'T EVEN CRANK. I'VE HAD THE BASICS CHECKED (BATTERY, ALTERNATOR, STARTER) AND ALL IS WELL. WHILE IT MAY NOT SEEM LIKE A SAFETY ISSUE THE CAR HAS LEFT ME STRANDED MANY TIMES. THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO ABOUT THIS.
