EVERY SUMMER THE SAME PROBLEMS OCCUR. WHEN DRIVING UPWARDS ON AN INCLINE STREET THE CAR LOSES ALL POWER. PUMPING THE GAS GETS IT RESTARTED VERY SLOWLY. ALSO, IN HOT WEATHER, WHEN ATTEMPTING TO MERGE ONTO A HIGHWAY THE CAR WILL NOT ACCELERATE PROPERLY FOR A FEW SECONDS. THE DEALER'S TECH CLAIMS IT IS A DESIGN PROBLEM AND THERE IS NOTHING THE DEALER CAN DO TO FIX THE PROBLEM. *TR

CAR WILL RANDOMLY TURN OFF WHILE DRIVING. SOMETIMES IT S FULL ENGINE AND POWER FAILURE AND SOMETIMES IT IS JUST ENGINE FAILURE AND ACCESSORIES STILL STAY ON . THIS HAS HAPPENED SINCE THE CAR WAS NEW AND HAS BEEN LOOKED INTO BY SEVERAL CHEVY DEALERS IN MY AREA. AUTONATION TOLD ME HE HAD SEVERAL OTHER CHEVYS THAT DID THE SAME THING.

I HAD MY STABILITRAK AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS AND MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COME ON MY VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING DOWN A NORMAL CITY ROAD IN SUNLIGHT ON A CLEAR WARM DAY AND MY VEHICLE STARTED IDLING VERY ROUGHLY WHILE DRIVING AND I WAS RIGHT BY AUTOZONE SO THEY RAN CODES AND FOUND OUT IT SAID KNOCK SENSOR AND MISFIRE. WELL I DROVE IT HOME 5 MINS DOWN THE STREET AND PARK IT. WELL I TAKE IT TO MY MECHANIC THE FOLLOWING MORNING AND HE DOES A DIAGNOSTIC AND PISTON CHECK AND TURNS OUT MY SPARK PLUG BURNED SO BAD IT WAS BURNED AWAY WHERE THE L HOOK IS. AND FOUND OUT THAT IT BROKE IN MY COMBUSTION CHAMBER SOMEWHERE . NOW I HAVE TO GET THIS ALL FIXED AND ITS COSTING A FEW THOUSAND DOLLARS.

THE TURBO CHARGER IS KNOWN FOR GOING OUT. THIS CAN CAUSE LOSS OF POWER- EVEN ON HIGHWAYS. MY TURBO LOST POWER ON THE HIGHWAY, CAUSING MY SPEED TO DROP DOWN TO 50 MPH. I AM IN A LOT OF CHEVY CRUZE FORUMS AND THIS IS THE MAIN COMPLAINT. YOUR SPEED CAN BE NORMAL AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN JUST DROP DOWN TO BARELY ANYTHING. THIS COULD CAUSE SOMEONE TO REAR-END YOU.

MY VEHICLE FOR THE LAST YEAR HAS BEEN HAVING SOME ENGINE ISSUES WHERE IT WILL LOCK UP ON ME I CAN'T GET MY KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION AND ALL THE LIGHTS WILL START GOING OFF SAYING IT NEEDS SERVICE AND THEN IT WILL STOP AND GO BACK TO THE REGULAR ODOMETER. I'VE KEPT UP WITH MY OIL CHANGES I'VE KEPT UP WITH ANY SERVICE THAT NEEDS TO BE DONE ON MY VEHICLE BUT TODAY MY ENGINE COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN WHEN I STARTED TO RUN MY AIR CONDITIONING. USUALLY I CAN GET UNDER THE HOOD AND WIGGLE SOME WIRES AND THEN THINGS WILL GO BACK TO THE WAY THAT IT WAS BUT LATELY MY CAR HAS BEEN SHUTTING OFF ON ME WHILE I'M DRIVING AND I HAD A SERVICE APPOINTMENT FOR NEXT WEEK TO GO AND SEE A PROFESSIONAL TO GET UNDER THE HOOD TO SEE WHAT WAS GOING ON I FIGURED IT WAS PROBABLY JUST ANOTHER OIL CHANGE IT IS ABOUT THAT TIME, BUT I WAS ON MY WAY TO A FRIEND'S WEDDING AND I HAD TO STOP AND WHEN I STOP MY CAR DID NOT CUT BACK ON I POP THE HOOD AND WIGGLED SOME WIRES LIKE I USUALLY DO BUT THERE WAS NO ACTIVITY WHATSOEVER UNDERNEATH THE HOOD. I STARTED THINKING TO MYSELF MAYBE I SHOULD PUT SOME OIL IN IT BUT I DON'T WANT TO RUIN MY ENGINE AND I STARTED THINKING MAYBE I NEED SOME ANTIFREEZE BUT AGAIN AND I'M NOT A MECHANIC SO I DON'T WANT TO ASSUME AND THEN DO SOMETHING TO MAKE THINGS A LOT WORSE BUT TODAY MY ENGINE COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN ON ME AND I HAD TO WAIT IN THE HEAT FOR OVER AN HOUR TO GET A JUMP.

I WAS CHECKING A LOT OF THE STATS ONLINE FOR THE 2014 CHEVY CRUZE AND THERE WERE ALREADY REPORTS OUT SAFETY REPORTS THAT THERE WERE SOME ISSUES WITH THE VEHICLES IGNITION AND POWER STEERING AND THERE WERE NUMBERS AND CODES AND I'M A BIT UPSET BECAUSE THEY SOLD ME THIS VEHICLE KNOWING THAT THERE WAS SOME THINGS THAT WERE WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE AND THAT COULD HAVE BEEN MY SAFETY AT RISK WHILE I'M DRIVING ON THE ROAD AND THE ENGINE JUST SHUTS DOWN THE WAY IT'S BEEN DOING.

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.

PROBLEM NO.1, MY CRUZE HAS LOST POWER, THE HEATER PUTS OUT COLD AIR, THE RADIATOR IS LOSING FLUID, THE ENGINE HAS STARTED TO OVER HEAT, AND THERE IS WET SPOT UNDER THE EXHAUST PIPE WHEN I IDLE THE ENGINE! THAT MEANS MY CAR HAS ETHER A BLOWEN HEAD GASKET OR CRACKED HEAD! THE CAR HAS LESS THEN 85,000 MILES AND IF THE HEAD IS CRACKED, I THINK I KNOW WHY BECAUSE GM DECKED THE BLOCK THE SHORT-WAY CENTER OUT TO THE ENDS! WITCH CAN LEAVE A VALLEY IN THE CENTER OF THE BLOCK! THEY MADE THE SAME MISTAKE WITH THE GRAND AM QUAD-4! THE HEAD ALL CRACKED BETWEEN CYLINDERS 2 AND 3 BECAUSE THE BLOCK WASN'T DECKED SQUARE! I HAVE TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER ON SAT 12/29/18 WISH SOMEONE WOULD CHECK THE BLOCK, I KNOW THE DEALER WILL TRY TO BLAME MY AND TO MAKE ME PAY FOR SOME OR ALL OF IT, EVEN THOUGH IT IS SILL UNDER WARRANTY! PROBLEM NO.2, I PURCHASED A NEW CHEVY CRUZE ECO WITH A MANUAL TRANSMISSION 4 YEARS AGO, I GOT IT BECAUSE I WANTED A HIGH MPG CAR AND I HAVE BEEN DRIVING STANDARD TRANSMISSION SINCE I STARTED DRIVING AND I KNEW I COULD BETTER MILEAGE THEN RATED (65.5 MPG MY BEST SCORE!), BUT THE SHIFTER HAS TO MUCH SLOP IN IT, I HAD A CUTLASS WITH A HURST SHIFTER THAT WAS 16 INCHES TALL AND USED THAT HAD LESS SLOP! I HAVE COMPLAINED TO DEALER ABOUT IT SINCE THE DAY I GOT CAR! THREE TIMES I HAVE PUT THE TRANSMISSION IN BOTH FIRST AND THIRD GEAR AT THE SAME TIME! I CAN'T TELL YOU HOW MANY TIME I HAVE MISSED THE SHIFT WHILE STILL HOLDING ALL THE WAY IN POSITION! IF I AM IN A HURRY I CAN'T FIND THE GEAR AT ALL! PROBLEM NO.3, THE HYDRAULIC THROW-OUT BEARING IS SLUSHY AND SLOW. BECAUSE THE MASTER-CYLINDER AND FEED-LINE IS TO SMALL! I AM A FAST SHIFTER, AND I CAN OUT SHIFT THE CLUTCH! THAT IS BAD BECAUSE THE PRESSURE PLATE DOESN'T CLOSE FAST ENOUGH IT CAUSES EXCESS WARE AND BURNING OF THE CLUTCH!

UNFORTUNATELY, THIS IS THE 3RD TIME THAT MY 2014 CHEVY CRUZE HAS THIS ISSUE. MY ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON WHILE THE STABILOCK SERVICE FLASHES ON THE DASHBOARD; CAR JERKS WHILE EITHER IDLE AND/OR STOPPED; A LOUD SQUEAKING NOISE FROM UNDER THE HOOD (ALL THESE ISSUES ALWAYS START AT THE SAME TIME!!). I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR TO CHEVY DEALERSHIPS AND THEY HAVE (SUPPOSEDLY) REPLACED THE SAME PART - SHAM COVER (ACCORDING TO MY INVOICES). I TOTALLY DON'T GET WHY THIS IS A NOT A RECALL ISSUE. IT IS VERY FRUSTRATING TO TAKE MY CAR IN FOR THE SAME ISSUE, AND OF COURSE, NOW THAT THE WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED, I'M SURE IT WILL BE EVEN MORE COSTLY.... WHICH I REALLY THINK IT WILL BE THE SAME THING! (OF COURSE, I'M NOT A MECHANIC, BUT IF I'M TAKING MY CAR IN FOR THE SAME REASON AND THEY DIAGNOSE IT AND REPAIR THAT SAME PART; I'M BEGINNING TO WONDER.... WHY EVEN CHARGE ME FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST WHEN YOUR CHANCES ARE IT'S THE SAME ISSUE!!) IS THIS A PART THAT ONLY LAST A MAXIMUM OF SO MANY MILES? I PURCHASED THE CAR IN 3/2015; AND THE 1ST TIME I RECEIVED SERVICE FOR THIS ISSUE WAS 6/29/2015, AND THEN AGAIN 2/24/2017. I'M SO CONFUSED!!! :( COME ON GM ~ HELP US OUT PLEASE!!

WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY, THE ENGINE STARTED REVVING EXTREMELY HIGH REGARDLESS OF THE GEAR I WAS IN. WE SAFELY GOT OUR SELVES OFF THE FREEWAY AND IN TO REGULAR STREET TRAFFIC. AFTER COASTING OFF THE RAMP INTO TRAFFIC, I WAS ABLE TO PUT IT IN 1ST AND DRIVE ABOUT. 3 MILES. WE STOPPED FOR A STOP LIGHT IN THE CENTER LANE ON A SLIGHT INCLINE. AND THEN THE CLUTCH HAD COMPLETELY FAILED. WHEN I TRIED TO MOVE I FIRST, THE CAR REVVED BUT ROLLED BACKWARD. NO PREVIOUS WARNING SIGNS. THE ISSUE ISN'T THE CLUTCH FAILURE, BUT THE LOW MILAGE OF THE CLUTCH FAILURE, 67000. WE WERE TOLD IT'S DUE TO WEAR AND TEAR, BUT THAT'S CONCERNING TO EXPERIENCE THIS ISSUE AT A RELATIVELY LOW MILEAGE.

VEHICLE HESITATES WHEN MERGING ONTO HIGHWAY TRAFFIC. THIS BEGAN HAPPENING AFTER I OWNED THE CAR FOR MORE THAN 3 YEARS WITHOUT SIMILAR INCIDENTS. ITS DANGEROUS BECAUSE JUST WHEN YOU NEED POWER TO MERGE, THE POWER DIPS INSTEAD WHICH IS POTENTIALLY LIKELY TO END IN BEING REAR-ENDED. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE CHEVY DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED. THEY KEPT IT FOUR DAYS AND STATED THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG BECAUSE THEY FOUND NO CODES. THEY STATE IT MIGHT BE DUE TO "TURBO LAG" WHICH IS NORMAL. IT IS NOT NORMAL AS I HAVE OWNED THE CAR ALMOST 4 YEARS BEFORE THIS BEGAN HAPPENING.

WHILE TRYING TO MERGE INTO TRAFFIC MY VEHICLE ENGINE SPEEDS UP TO 7000 RPM BUT THE CAR ONLY GETS UP TO ABOUT 28 MPH. I HAVE ALMOST BEEN REAR ENDED BECAUSE OF THIS. ALSO I TRIED TO PASS OTHER CARS AT FIRST THE CAR SEEMED AS IT HAD THE POWER TO PASS BUT AS I GOT AT THE SIDE OF THE CAR I WAS PASSING WITH PEDAL ON FLOOR THE TRANSMISSION SEEMED TO LOSE POWER AND DOG DOWN. ALMOST CAUSING ME A HEAD ON COLLISION . ON THE HIGHWAY MY CAR DOESN'T SEEM TO HAVE THE POWER TO PASS CARS UNLESS GOING DOWN HILL. THE CARS ENGINE SPEEDS UP BUT THE TRANSMISSION DO NOT SPEED UP SO IT JUST BURNS MORE GAS. THAT I CAN NOT AFFORD ON DISABILITY.ON JUNE 8 2018 I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO WEIMER CHEVROLET IN MOOREFIELD, WV, THEY TOLD ME EVERYTHING WAS FINE GAVE ME A COPY OF THE VEHICLE INSPECTION THEY DONE. OTHER CRUZE OWNERS SAID THEY HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM I TOLD THEM TO CALL GM THEMSELVES TO LET THEM KNOW OF THIS PROBLEM. I SPOKE TO A MIGUEL AT GM AT CUSTOMER SERVICE, HE TOLD ME THAT A MANAGER WOULD BE IN TOUCH WITH ME .ON JUNE 26 2018, A GM MANAGER CALLED MY CELL PHONE AND ASKED FOR MY ADDRESS , AND A BRIEF EXPLANATION OF THE CARS ISSUES E-MAIL ADDRESS AND THE DEALER INFO. I THEN ON JUNE 28 I GOT A EMAIL FROM A COURTNEY AT GM STATING THAT THEY HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO CONTACT ME. EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE MY HOME / CELL NUMBERS. AND THAT IF THIS MATTER IS RESOLVED DO NOTHING BUT IF NOT TO CALL THEM, I TRIED TO AND GOT NO ANSWER SO ALSO SENT A REPLY TO THEIR E-MAIL, STATING THAT THIS MATTER HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED AND HOW DANGEROUS THESE CARS ARE. ONCE AGAIN NO RESPONSE FROM GM AS OF JULY 17. I FEEL AS THOUGH GM DOES NOT CARE ABOUT MY FAMILIES OR MY SAFETY IN THIS MATTER WITH THEIR LACK OF RESPONSE . I 'M NOT SURE HOW MANY OTHERS HAVE REPORTED TO GM WITH THEIR ISSUES BUT I KNOW MINE IS FALLING THROUGH THE CRACKS. SO IF YOU CAN PLEASE HELP WITH THIS ISSUE I WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE IT.
