What 698 owners told NHTSA about the 2014 Chevrolet Cruze Limited

I STARTED HAVING ISSUE LAST YEAR WITH THE ENGINE. I CALLED CHEVY AND WAS ADVISED MY WARRANTY EXPIRED 12 DAY'S BEFORE MY COMPLAINT. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH I LEARNED THAT MULTIPLE CONSUMER'S ACROSS THE COUNTRY ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES WITH THE HEATING SYSTEM AND ENGINE. I FEEL MY CAR SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLED. THE VEHICLE WILL JUST SHUT OFF MID TRAFFIC WITHOUT WARNING. I HAVE INVESTED MORE THAN 1000 DOLLARS AND IT'S STILL HAVING ISSUES.

I TOOK MY 2014 CHEVY CRUZE LTZ TO THE CHEVROLET DEALERS IN 2 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS ABOUT 2 YEARS APART. THE SAME ISSUE PERSISTS. I GET ALL THE ELECTRIC SYSTEMS TO START BLINKING AND TURNING OFF AND ON FOR A MINUTE AND A MESSAGE APPEARS SAYING "SERVICE STABILITY CONTROL". THE POWER STEERING GOES OFF, AND THE BREAKS AND THE CAR KEEPS RUNNING SO IT IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. IT CAUSED THE CAR BATTERY TO BE DAMAGED BECAUSE THE SULFURIC ACID EVAPORATED AND MADE THE CAR STINK SO MUCH LIKE ROTTEN EGGS. I TOOK IT IT UNDER WARRANTY THEY COULDN'T FIGURE IT OUT (I TESTED THE BATTERY INDEPENDENTLY AND IT WAS PERFECT-SO IT WAS THE ALTERNATOR), I TOOK IT AGAIN AFTER WARRANTY EXPIRED AND STILL THEY JUST REPLACED THE (REPLACEMENT) BATTERY AGAIN BUT I MIGHT BE RISKING MY LIFE BY DRIVING THIS CAR WHICH HAS THE "STABILITY" ERROR AT RANDOM TIMES FOR A MINUTE AND THEN IT DISAPPEARS BUT AT THE DEALERS THEY SAY THAT THEY CANNOT TEST IT UNLESS IT HAPPENS IN FRONT OF THEM.

MY BOYFRIEND WAS IN A CAR ACCIDENT. WE ARE BOTH ON THE CAR, AND THE AIRBAGS DIDNT GO OFF

NHTSA ODI 11206323

I WAS HIT BY A TRUCK DRIVING AT LEAST 50MPH. HIS AIR BAGS ALL WENT OFF, MINE DID NOT. I WAS AT A ROLLING START TO DRIVE, HE WAS ON THE HIGHWAY. WITH THE AMOUNT OF DAMAGE DONE TO THE CAR AND THE FORCE OF THE ACCIDENT IT IS ABSOLUTELY TERRIFYING THAT THE AIRBAGS DID NOT GO OFF TO SAVE ME FROM HITTING THE STEERING WHEEL SO HARD.

GM SERVICE BULLETIN PIP5197J (AS AMENDED 10/2018) DESCRIBES MULTIPLE ISSUES WITH THE PCV AND NON RETURN VALVE ON THIS ENGINE. IF EITHER PART FAILS IT IS A COSTLY REPAIR AND CAN LEAD TO OIL SPRAYING OUT OF THE VALVE COVER/INTAKE MANIFOLD. THIS HAPPENED TO MY VEHICLE IN OCTOBER AND HAS HAPPENED TO A HUGE NUMBER OF OTHER VEHICLES IN THE PAST 6 YEARS. THE OIL EXPECTORATE FROM THE ENGINE CAN BURN AND CAUSE SMOKE TO ENTER THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT LEADING TO RESPIRATORY ISSUES FOR THE PASSENGERS. THE ISSUE IS KNOWN TO GM BUT THEY WILL NOT ISSUE A RECALL OR SERVICE WARRANTY EXTENSION. IN ADDITION TO THE SMOKE ISSUE, THE OIL CAN ALSO FORM A HAZARD ON THE ROADWAY THROUGH OIL DROPLETS. A VERY TINY STOPPER BALL IN THE VALVE CAN MALFUNCTION, LEADING TO A CASCADE OF FAILURES THROUGHOUT THE ENGINE. THE SERVICE BULLETIN COVERS 4 SPECIFIC MODELS OF VEHICLES FROM 2011-2019.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN, I WOULD LIKE TO FILE A COMPLAINT ON THE SAFETY HAZARD CAUSED BY FAULTY BLIND SPOT DETECTORS ON CHEVY CRUZES. I STARTED RECEIVING A NOTIFICATION ON MY DASHBOARD THAT THE BLIND SPOT ALERT SYSTEM NEEDED SERVICE. ONLY A WEEK LATER I WAS RECEIVING NOTIFICATIONS THAT THE ALERT WAS TURNED OFF. WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE CHEVY DEALER THEY RAN THE SOFTWARE AND SAID THAT IT WAS DEFECTIVE AND THEY NEEDED TO REPLACE THE BLIND SPOT DETECTOR MODULES FOR $900. AT FIRST GM SEEMED WILLING TO WORK AND START A CASE FILE AND LOWERED THE PRICE TO $734. CURRENTLY MY CARS BLIND SPOT ISN'T WORKING AND IT SEEMS TO HAVE SPREAD TO THE REAR CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT WHICH IS NOTIFYING ME THAT IT'S TURNED OFF AS WELL. THE CHEVY DEALER SAID THAT THEY WOULD TRY AND REPLACE THE BLIND SPOT MODULES AND HOPEFULLY THAT WOULD FIX THE REAR CROSS TRAFFIC DETECTORS. DUE TO THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT (SEEN HERE) HTTPS://WWW.TRUTHINADVERTISING.ORG/WP-CONTENT/UPLOADS/2018/05/HUDSON-V-GENERAL-MOTORS-COMPLAINT.PDF AND VARIOUS OTHER ONLINE COMPLAINTS ( HTTPS://CHEVROLETFORUM.COM/FORUM/IMPALA-14/BLIND-SPOT-DETECTION-PROBLEM-81694/PAGE2/) I BELIEVE CHEVROLET AND GM SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THE FAULTY SAFETY SYSTEMS THEY HAVE INSTALLED.

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR THE RADIO DASHBOARD WILL START FLASHING ON AND OFF ON ITS OWN THEN WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND TURN IT OFF THE KEY IS STUCK IN THE IGNITION AND THE DASHBOARD IS COMPLETELY BLACK AND THE CAR WILL NOT TURN ON AT ALL. 3/28/2019 AROUND 11PM THE CAR RADIO DASH BOARD WAS FLASHING AND I TURN MY CAR OFF AND IT WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO TAKE THE KEY OUT AT ALL WELL SOME TIME THROUGH OUT THE NIGHT THE CAR TURNED BACK ON BECAUSE AT 6AM THE LIGHTS WHERE BACK ON IN MY CAR BY ITSELF. THE NEXT MORNING I DRIVE MY CAR TO SCHOOL AND IT DOES THE SAME THING WITH THE DASHBOARD AND FLASHING ON AND OFF AND IT SHUTS OFF AGAIN, THIS TIME I GET A JUMP START AND THE CAR IS BACK WORKING. THE CAR ALSO ACT AS IF IT WAS GOING TO SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING IT. BUT IT HAS DONE THIS TO ME BACK ON NOVEMBER 8,2018. I FEAR FOR MY LIFE DRIVING THIS CAR BEACUSE YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHEN THE CAR WILL SHUT OFF WHILE ON THE ROAD. SOMEONE HAS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS ISSUE BECAUSE IF SOME ONE DIE IN A CAR ACCIDENT AND IT IS FOUND TO BE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS THERE IS A BIG LAW SUIT COMING. I AM MAKING THIS COMPLAINT JUST FOR THAT. WE SPENDS LITERALLY THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS ON A CAR AND WHEN THE CAR HAS A DEFECT THE CONSUMERS ARE MESSED OVER BY THE DEALERSHIPS AND WHOM EVER MAKES THE CAR. THEN YOU HAVE TO HAVE SO MANY COMPLAINTS IN ORDER FOR A RECALL OR IS IT HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE TO DIE IN ORDER FOR SOMEONE TO LOOK AND SEE THAT THIS CAR HAS ELECTRICAL ISSUES AND WILL SHUT OFF ON YOU AT ANT TIME.HELLO! IT NEVER FAILS THE CAR STARTS GIVING YOU ISSUE AFTER THE WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED ITS LIKE THEY HAVE IT PROGRAM.I AM COMPLAINING BECAUSE THEY ARE AVOIDING THE FACT THAT THIS CAR HAS MAJOR ELECTRICAL ISSUES AND HOW MANY COMPLAINTS OR LIVES WILL IT TAKE FOR A RECALL? MY CAR WAS STATIONARY, IN MOTION, ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN THIS ALL HAPPENED. REF#14V417000 THE DEALERSHIP REPLACE THE BLACK CABLE BUT MY CAR IS STILL

MULTIPLE DASH AND SYSTEM FAILURES RESULTING IN STALLS AND LOSS OF STEERING AND POWER. ESSENTIALLY LOCKING UP. VERY DANGEROUS CONDITIONS IN TRAFFIC. MOST RECENTLY DASH INDICATING ANTI-THIEF DETERRENT SYSTEM WARNING. THESE CONDITIONS HAVE HAPPENED OVER THE LAST FULL YEAR. DEALER DIAGNOSIS WAS NILL. I HAVE BEEN HAVING TO REVIEW PUBLIC VIDEOS FOR HELP. MAY OR MAY NOT BE A NEGATIVE CABLE BATTERY ISSUE BUT CHEVROLET HAS YET TO RECALL THIS! I AM FEARING FOR MY SAFETY.

I'VE NOTICED MY RADIO AND LIGHTS ON SCREEN GOES OUT WHILE I'M DRIVING SOMETIMES AND I THINK THAT'S AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM AND COULD PROBABLY START FIRE.

WE HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE DEF SYSTEM TWICE, REPLACED TWO KNOCK SENSORS, HAD TO REPLACE THE DIESEL PARTILEC SENSOR, AMONG MANY OTHER TIME BEING THE SHOP. THIS CAR HAS NOT RAN RIGHT SINCE WE BOUGHT IT. NOW, EVERYTIME WE START THE CAR AND BEGIN TO DRIVE IT, WE GET A WARNING ABOUT THE STABILTRAK NOT WORKING, THEN POWERSTEERING GOES OUT, AND ENTIRE CAR SHUTS DOWN AND GOES BLACK WHEN THE CAR IS POWERED OFF. THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITHIN THESE VEHICLES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED AND THE TRAC SENSOR WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED.

VEHICLE WAS TAKEN INTO GM DEALER (LARKIN-COBB) CHEVROLET BECAUSE IT WAS LEAKING COOLANT. HAD TO ADD COOLANT TO RESERVOIR AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK. DEALER FOUND A SMALL VALVE DRIPPING ON THE ENGINE AND REPLACED IT. THE VEHICLE WAS UNDER REMAINING POWERTRAIN WARRANTY AT THE TIME OF COMPLAINT/ISSUE. THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO LEAK AFTER SAID REPAIR AND WAS BROUGHT BACK TO DEALER 2 MORE TIMES AND DYE TEST WAS DONE AND THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM. ON THE THIRD TIME THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK AGAIN WITH THE SAME ISSUE..LOSS OF COOLANT. THE DEALER AND GM WARRANTY NOW WANT TO CHARGE ME FOR CYLINDER HEAD REMOVAL AND HEAD GASKET REPLACEMENT. I CONTENDED THAT THE CAR WAS UNDER WARRANTY AT THE TIME OF INITIAL REPAIR AND THE ISSUE WAS NOT RESOLVED AND SHOULD STILL BE FIXED UNDER POWERTRAIN WARRANTY. GM WARRANTY REP SAID NO...THE "DATE" HAD EXPIRED. NOW I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO PAY FOR REPAIRS THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED UNDER POWERTRAIN WARRANTY..AND GM WONT "OWN" UP TO ITS WARRANTY. CANT JUST TAKE THE VEHICLE BACK BECAUSE IT WAS SETTING OFF "HIGH TEMPERATURE" CODE WHEN AT IDLE AND ALSO MOVING. AFTER RESEARCHING..THESE CHEVROLET CRUZES HAVE A VERY BAD HISTORY OF COOLING PROBLEMS...INCLUDING WATER PUMP, TURBO SEALS, AND BLOWN HEAD GASKETS. GM SHOULD HONOR THIER WARRANTYS AND FIX THE ENGINE AND COOLING PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR.IN MY OPINION, ANY COOLING PROBLEM SHOULD BE FIXED BECAUSE IT IS BADLY ENGINEERED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED, IT EXPERIENCED ELECTRICAL FAILURES AND SHUT ON AND OFF. ALSO, THE BRAKES SKIPPED AND THE VEHICLE JERKED WHEN COMING TO A STOP. THE FAILURES OCCURRED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS BEING TEST DRIVEN. PREMIER CAR SALES LLC (5425 ELVIS PRESLEY BLVD, MEMPHIS, TN 38116) STATED THAT THE FAILURES WOULD BE REPAIRED BEFORE THE SALE WAS FINAL. THE DEALER CLAIMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN UNKNOWN CHEVROLET DEALER FOR REPAIRS. AFTER THE SALE OF THE VEHICLE, THE BRAKE FAILURE RECURRED AND THE CONTACT RETURNED TO THE DEALER. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO A CHEVROLET DEALER FOR REPAIRS SINCE IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY. BEFORE THE CONTACT COULD TAKE THE VEHICLE TO A DEALER, SHE WAS INVOLVED IN A CRASH. WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN IN THE RAIN, THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF AND SLID INTO THE SIDE OF A CURB. THE AXLES, ROTOR, SPINDLE, AND RIMS WERE FRACTURED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CONTACT'S HOME. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED AND THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN UNKNOWN DEALER TO BE DIAGNOSED AND THEY STATED THERE WERE NO RECALLS. THE CONTACT WAS REFERRED TO GENERAL MOTORS. THE CONTACT BOUGHT NEW ROTORS, A NEW SPINDLE, AND RIMS AND HAD THEM REPLACED BY AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. GENERAL MOTORS REFUSED TO INVESTIGATE THE FAILURE BECAUSE REPAIRS HAD BEEN MADE; HOWEVER, THE BRAKES CONTINUED TO MALFUNCTION. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 36,000.

LEAKING OIL ON EXHAUST AND GM WONT FIX IT EVEN CAR IS STILL UNDER FACTORY WARRANTY. SMELLS BAD INSIDE VEHICLE AS BURNING OIL. CONCERNED IT MAY START ON FIRE

RECENTLY TURNED UP THE DEFOGGER ON FRONT WINDSHIELD TO WARN CAR UP AND I HEARD A A LOUD VIBRATING SOUND AND A HUMMING NOISE COMING FROM VENTS, MY BLOWER MOTOR STARTS VIBRATING ON ANYTHING AFTER 3 FOR THE LEVEL. TODAY I WAS DRIVING IN THE SNOW AND USED MY WIPERS THE DRIVER SIDE STOPPED MID WAY AND WAS STUCK. ONCE I REACHED MY DESTINATION I TRIED USING THE WIPERS AGAIN AND THE DRIVER SIDE DID NOTHING. I GOT OUT AND OUT IT DOWN TRIED ONCE MORE AND THE DRIVER WIPER DID NOT MOVE.

WHILE DRIVING LONG DISTANCES ON STRAIGHT HIGHWAYS THE STEERING WHEEL BECOMES EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO TURN. GM ISSUED A SPECIAL COVERAGE ADJUSTMENT #14232A FOR POWER STEERING STICK-SLIP THAT LISTS 2011-2014 CHEVROLET CRUZE MODELS, BUT WHEN GM SEARCHES THIS SPECIFIC VIN IT DOES NOT LIST AN AVAILABLE SERVICE BULLETIN. CONTACTED GM TO HAVE THE VEHICLE REPAIRED PER THE SPECIAL COVERAGE ADJUSTMENT BUT WAS INFORMED THAT IT WASN'T COVERED PER THE VIN SEARCH. ALL THE CRITERIA MATCH THE BULLETIN (YEAR, MAKE, MODEL, TIME AND MILEAGE) AND THE KNOWN SAFETY DEFECT BY GM , AND SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER THE ABOVE-MENTIONED SERVICE BULLETIN.

MY 2014 CHEVROLET CRUZE STARTED LOSING POWER UPON ACCELERATION. A FEW DAYS LATER, THE ENGINE DIAGNOSTIC LIGHT CAME ON. I KNEW SOMETHING WAS WRONG WHEN I COULDN'T KEEP IT RUNNING IN MY DRIVEWAY TO CLEAR THE ICE FROM THE WINDOWS. FINALLY, I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT TO OUR MECHANIC. WHEN HE RAN THE CODES, HIS COMPUTER SHOWED TWO SENSORS AND THE ALTERNATOR NEEDED REPLACING. OVER $700.00 LATER, THE PROBLEM STILL WASN'T FIXED. I WAS AFRAID TO DRIVE MY CAR, FEARING THE LACK OF POWER AND BOGGING WOULD CAUSE ME TO STALL IN TRAFFIC, THUS INCREASING THE LIKELIHOOD OF CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. IT IS BURNING GAS AND BOGGING UPON ACCELERATION AND / OR WHILE IDLING. SOMETIMES, IT IS DIFFICULT TO START. THE DIAGNOSTIC LIGHT IS STILL ON. TODAY, MY MECHANIC IDENTIFIED THE PROBLEM. THE CHECK VALVE IN THE INTAKE MANIFOLD HAS STOPPED SEALING AND HAS DISAPPEARED. WHERE DID IT GO? INSIDE THE ENGINE? I ASK. IT WILL NEED A NEW VENT TUBE, A NEW INTAKE MANIFOLD WITH THE CHECK VALVE INTACT, AND A NEW VALVE COVER WHICH HAS TO BE REPLACED DUE TO A LITTLE DIAPHRAGM WHICH CAN'T BE REPLACED BY ITSELF. ANOTHER POOR DESIGN. THIS CAR ONLY HAS 47,967 MILES AS OF 2-05-2019. I BOUGHT THIS CAR FOR THE GOOD GAS MILEAGE, WHICH HAS BEEN GREATLY REDUCED AT THIS TIME. GM NEEDS TO CORRECT THESE PROBLEMS SINCE THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN CAUSED BY A FAULTY DESIGN OF THE INTAKE MANIFOLD. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE AS NHTSA HAS A BULLETIN NUMBER (11170978) IDENTIFYING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE CRUZE IN OTHER STATES. AS A SENIOR ON A FIXED INCOME, IT WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED THAT THIS PROBLEM IS CORRECTED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. THANK YOU.

THE STEERING WHEEL STICKS WHEN I AM DRIVING. IT'S EXTREMELY NOTICEABLE WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY OR MAKING TURNS. THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM COMES ON AND OFF WHEN THE VEHICLE IS OPERATIONAL. ALL OF A SUDDEN MY RADIO WILL GO ON AND OFF AND THE AIR CONDITIONER AND THE HEATER WILL STOP WORKING. I HAVE 5 CHILDREN AND 3 STILL AT HOME AND I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE MY CAR BUT UNFORTUNATELY IT'S ALL WE HAVE.

THE WATER PUMP IN MY 2014 CHEVY CRUZE . STARTED TO LEAK. WHEN I TOOK IT IN FOR SERVICE THEY SAID IT AND THE THERMOSTAT AND THERMOSTAT CASING HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 51,000 MI. I FOUND A BULLETIN #14371 B DATED JAN.2015 THAT EXPLAINS A SPECIAL COVERAGE ADJUSTMENT FOR 2011-2014 CRUZES THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT WAS ONLY FOR 1.4L ENGINES NOT MY 1.8 L ENGINE SO IT ISN'T COVERED. I HAVE FOUND OTHER 1.8L CRUDE OWNERS ON LEMON LAW SITES THAT ALSO CLAIM PROBLEMS WITH THE WATERPUMPS.

WHILE DRIVING TO WORK ON A BUSY HIGHWAY HEADING TO DANVILLE VA WHERE THE SPEED LIMIT IS AROUND 55 TO 60 MPH DURING A WINTRY MIX STORM THE DRIVER SIDE WINDSHIELD WIPER STOPPED WORKING MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE. ON VARIOUS WEB SITES THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH THESE VEHICLES. THUS FAR UPON MY RESEARCH THERE ARE VARIOUS CAUSES FOR THIS TO OCCUR BUT THE ONE THAT I KNOW ITS NOT IN MY CASE IS THAT I HAVE BAD WIPERS.THESE WIPERS WERE JUST RECENTLY REPLACED.
