TO WHOM THIS MAY CONCERN, THIS VEHICLE HAS ISSUES WITH STABILTRAK/TRACTION CONTROL. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN SERVICED ROUTINELY THROUGHOUT THE TIME I HAVE HAD IT. THIS VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT IN AT THE DEALERSHIP UPON RECEIVING THE LETTER FOR THE RECALL, I DO NOT THINK THIS WAS THOROUGHLY INSPECTED. IT WAS UNDER TEN MINUTES, THAT I WAS TOLD THE VEHICLE DIDN'T HAVE A PROBLEM. IN MY OPINION, THIS WAS TOTALLY INCORRECT. THE PROBLEM PERSISTED STILL TO THIS DAY. NOBODY REPORTED THIS PROBLEM, WHICH COULD BE A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN FOR MY FAMILY AND I. THIS WILL BE THE FIRST INVESTIGATION INTO THIS MATTER. IF THE DEALERSHIP DID SAY THEY THOROUGHLY INSPECTED IT, WHY DIDN'T THEY REPORT THIS MATTER TO YOU, WHICH WOULD BE LANDERS MCCLARTY CHEVROLET, HUNTSVILLE AL. I HAVE DONE MAJOR RESEARCH AND THIS MATTER IS UNACCEPTABLE. THE DEALERSHIP WAS COMPLETELY IN THE WRONG. NONE OF THIS MATTER WAS HANDLED CORRECTLY, WHY DIDN'T I GET ANY DETAILS OR DOCUMENTATION. WHY WASN'T IT REPORTED?? I'M GONNA CONTINUE TO SEARCH FOR PAPERWORK, AND THE EXACT DATES WHICH I TOOK IT THERE. I WILL BE IN CONTACT WITH MY LAWYER, AND GET ANY PAPERWORK AND EVIDENCE REVIEWED. THE STABILTRAK LIGHT STAYS ON, AND CAUSED ME NOT TO GO INTO REVERSE. THE STEERING COMPLETELY WENT DOWN AND PARKING ASSIST, AS WELL AS TRACTION CONTROL IS ALWAYS ON. THIS HAS BEEN A COMPLETE DISASTER. I ASK YOU WITH COMPLETE SINCERITY, TO FOLLOW UP. MY FAMILY'S LIFE SHOULDN'T BE IN JEOPARDY BECAUSE OF AN IMPROPER INVESTIGATION. THIS DEALERSHIP WILL NEED TO TAKE FULL RESPONSIBLITY. I WILL UPLOAD AND PICTURES OR ATTACHMENTS THAT ARE NEEDED. KEEP IN MIND, THAT THESE ARE THE EXACT ISSUES THAT THIS VEHICLE WAS RECALLED FOR, THE SAME ENGINE WHICH IS THE 1.4 LITER TURBO, AND THE SAME MODEL THAT HAS BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS EXACT MALFUNCTION!

ME AND MY BOYFRIEND WERE DRIVING IN CALCUTTA OHIO WE WENT TO PULL OUT OF A PARKING LOT TO GO TO MCDONALD'S AND WE LOOKED BOTH WAYS AND WE WERE CLEAR TO GO AND BY THE TIME WE HIT THE CENTER TURNING LANE AND STARTED TO TURN INTO MCDONALD'S AND A JEEP CAME FLYING OUT OF NO WHERE AND OUR VEHICLES COLLIDED CAUSING FRONT END DAMAGE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY IN THE CAR. *TR

Mileage: 142,101

MY VEHICLE WAS RECALLED FOR THE VALVE COVER GASKET WHICH MAY LEAK OIL AND DROP DOWN CAUSING A FIRE. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT THIS WAS FIXED UPON TAKEN IT TO A MECHANIC BECAUSE THE OIL WAS DRIPPING DOWN CAUSING SMOKE AND THE PART THAT IT WAS DRIPPING ON WAS RED HOT WHICH WAS THE COIL WIRE. WAS IN FACT NOT FIXED.

Mileage: 117,000

THE CRUZE SPUTTERS OR HESITATES WHEN BRAKED OR IDLING, THE SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL, SERVICES STABILITRAK CAME ON ALONG WITH A FLASHING CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. I LOOSE POWER AND FEEL LIKE I'M NEEDING TO PRESS A LOT HARDER ON THE GAS TO ACCELERATE.

Mileage: 131,468

WE PURCHASED A 2011 CHEVY CRUZ WITH LESS THAN 100K MILES. IN THE 2 YEARS WE'VE HAD IT WE'VE REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION, OIL COOLER, AND ALL THE HOSES. THE FURTHEST WE'VE DRIVEN IT IS 400MILES IN A TRIP. WE HAVEN'T TAKEN IT UP MOUNTAINS, AND WE KEEP UP WITH MAINTENANCE

THE TRANSMISSION OF THE CAR IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. IT JUMPS EVERY TIME I PRESS THE GAS PEDAL AND JUMPS WHEN THE CAR IS ON THE ROAD.

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

Mileage: 154,000

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

PICKED UP CAR FROM SHOP AFTER PAYING OVER 800.00 AND THE CAR STATED TO SMELL THE CAR ACT AS IF IT WILL CATCH A FIRE. SMOKE COMING OUT OF THE VENTS AND UNDER THE HOOD. CALLED THE DEALER AND NO HELP THE SERVICE MANAGER WILL NOT RETURN MY CALL. I'M OUT OF TOWN TWO HOURS FROM MY HOME. I WILL HAVE TO GET A HOTEL ROOM AND I PAID FOR RENTAL CAR FOR TWO DAYS ALREADY.

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.

Mileage: 97,000

I WAS STRANDED FOR 4 HOURS IN THE RAIN WITH MY GROCERIES LOCKED IN MY TRUNK AT WAL-MART WHEN I TRIED TO START MY CHEVY CRUZ THE STABLI TRACK LIGHT CAME ON MY STEERING WHEEL LOCK AND MY KEYS WAS ALSO LOCK ON THE IGNITION ON MAY 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

Mileage: 85,000

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.

IN ADDITION TO TWO COMPLAINTS FILED ABOUT THIS VEHICLE ALREADY. THE U.S HAS NO CONCERN FOR HUMAN LIFE IN THE U.S AND IS ALLOWING WHITE SUPREMACY TO ENDANGER MINORITY DRIVERS AND OTHER DRIVERS. THE TESTING OF SATELLITE RADIOLOGICAL DISPERSAL WEAPONS AND REMOTE CONTROL SYSTEMS INVOLVING, HACKING, BACKDOOR ACCESS, REMOTE CONTROL, SURVEILLANCE AND VEHICLE COMPROMISE PERSISTS. ON 12/10/15 AND 12/09/15 THE VEHICLE WAS HALTED BY FORCE FROM A SATELLITE TRACKING THE VEHICLE. AMPLE EVIDENCE OF ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS IN THE CAR, CELLPHONE TRACKING AND HOME TRACKING IS AVAILABLE. A FEDERAL LAWSUIT WAS FILED AND DISMISSED WITHOUT REASON OF CAUSE TO FURTHER THE HATE CRIME. 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.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET CRUZE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SERVICE STABILITY TRACTION CONTROL WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED INTERMITTENTLY AND THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL HESITATED TO RESPOND. ON THE FIRST OCCASION, THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING AT 20 MPH AND THE VEHICLE STALLED. ON A SECOND OCCASION, THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE EACH TIME BUT THE FAILURE WAS PROGRESSING. THE FAILURE CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO GO INTO A LIMP MODE EACH TIME. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER TWICE AND THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO REPLICATE AND DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER A THIRD TIME WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE ALTERNATOR ASSEMBLY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE DETERMINED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS LEFT FOR A DIAGNOSIS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 36,000.

STABILITY TRAC AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT APPEARS, VEHICLE EXPERIENCES IMMEDIATE LOSS OF POWER. EXPERIENCED WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAY ATTEMPTING TO CHANGE LANES. DUE TO THE SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER I WAS NEARLY STRUCK BY A BIG RIG. DEALER CAN NOT IDENTIFY CODES ONLY CODE THAT APPEARED WAS PO171,FUEL TRIM LEAN CODE WAS ADDRESSED BY DEALER, DEALER CLAIMS ORIGINAL COMPLAINT WAS TIED TO THE P0171 CODE. WHILE DRIVING HOME EXPERIENCED SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER AND ROUGH SHIFTING. NO WARNING LIGHTS OR INDICATORS APPEARED. VEHICLE SMELLS LIKE BURNT OIL, AND NOTICED A LOUD TICKING NOISE. NOTIFIED DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT IS NORMAL VEHICLE WILL BE FINE AFTER 400 MILES OF DRIVING. MY FAMILIES LIFE WILL BE PLACED IN JEAPORDY FOR THE NEXT 400 MILES. THE UNRESPONSIVE ACCELERATION AND SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE.

HAVE HAD REPEATED ISSUES WITH SERVICE STABILITRAK LIGHT COMING ON WHILE DRIVING AND THEN POWER BEING REDUCED TO VEHICLE, CAUSING UNSAFE DRIVING CONDITIONS; FOLLOWING RECALL TO REPROGRAM COMPUTER ENGINE FAN RAN CONTINUALLY FOR DAYS; CAR DIED WHEN STARTONG, DEALER REPLACED COMPUTER TRIED TO RETURN WITH CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON, NOW STABILITRAK ISSUE HAS RECURRED AGAIN. NOT CONFIDENT THAT DEALERSHIP HAS ANY CLUE WHAT IS REALLY WRONG WITH THIS CAR. THE DEALERSHIP'S MOST RECENT GUESS IS THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE TRANSMISSION BUT THAT THEY ARE GETTING A CODE THEY DON'T RECOGNIZE.

Mileage: 39,844

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.

Mileage: 83,000

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.

THE CARS STABILITY TRACK INDICATOR, ANTI-THEFT AND SEVERAL OTHER DASH LIGHTS INCLUDING CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND THE CAR WILL NOT START OR ALLOW ME TO REMOVE THE KEY. I HAVE HAD THIS HAPPEN ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS FORTUNATELY NOT WHEN I AM DRIVING HOWEVER MANY TIMES WHILE I HAVE BEEN DRIVING THE CAR THE CARS ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WILL RESET AND THE CARS POWER SEEMS TO LUG DOWN AND FEELS LIKE IT IS DRAGGING OR BRAKING. REMOVING BATTERY AND REPLACING HELPED IT ONCE. I ALSO NOTICE THE REAR LIGHTS WILL STAY WHEN THE CAR IS IN PARK UNLESS I START THE CAR MOVE IT 2 OR 3' AND PUT IT BACK INTO PARK AGAIN. *TR

UPON STARTING MY VEHICLE BOTH THE STABILITRAK AND TRACTION LIGHTS WERE ON, TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AND THEN BACK ON. LIGHTS REMAINED ON, FIRST REPAIR PLACE SAID STABILITRAK SENSOR, SECOND SAID IT WAS THE WHEEL BEARING. BECAUSE OF THE DIFFERENCES IN OPINION I TOOK IT TO A CHEVY DEALER WHO THEN TOLD ME THE WIRES HAD GONE BAD AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT THE COST OF $300. I CONTINUE TO HAVE ELECTRONIC ISSUES WITH THIS VEHICLE AFTER REPLACING THE BCM TWICE. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. *TR

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR HOME FROM WORK AT THE END OF JANUARY, I FELT IT SUDDENLY SLOW DOWN ON ITS OWN. I HAD A MESSAGE ON MY DISPLAY TO SERVICE STABILITRAK AND ENGINE POWER REDUCED. I HAD NO POWER TO THE CAR AND HAD TO PULL OFF THE ROAD. I TURNED MY CAR OFF FOR A COUPLE OF MINUTES AND THEN BACK ON, IT STARTED AND RAN FINE THE REST OF THE WAY HOME. THEN AGAIN TODAY, FEB. 24TH, 2015, WHILE DRIVING TO WORK, IT DID THE EXACT SAME THING. I HAD TO MOVE OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD IN EARLY MORNING TRAFFIC (NOT AN EASY THING TO DO!), AND TURN MY CAR OFF. I WAITED FOR A COUPLE OF MINUTES, STARTED IT AND DROVE THE REST OF THE WAY INTO WORK WITHOUT PROBLEMS. AFTER READING THE MANY COMPLAINTS OF THE EXACT SAME SITUATIONS, I WOULD THINK IT'S TIME FOR A RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT DUE TO THE SUDDEN REDUCTION OF POWER!! *JS

THE FIRST OCCURRENCE HAPPENED ON JAN. 20TH 2015 ON MY WAY TO WORK, TWICE. I NOTICED BECAUSE THE RADIO TURNED OFF AND THE SERVICE ESP FLASHED WITH THE TRACTION LIGHT COMING ON WITH MULTIPLE OTHER LIGHTS FLASHING. ALL OF THIS INCLUDING THE RADIO FLASHED/TURNED OFF AND ON FOR ABOUT 2 MINUTES. OVER THE NEXT WEEK THIS HAPPENED 5 OR 6 TIMES. ALL OF THESE HAPPENED WHILE GOING BETWEEN 30 AND 40 MPH AND ON TRIPS BETWEEN 30-45 MINUTES. I HAD ABOUT A WEEK WITH NONE OF THIS HAPPENING AND THEN ON FEB. 8TH I WAS DRIVING HOME, 20 MINS FROM START TO FINISH AND TWICE THE ENGINE POWER REDUCED CAME ON AND I COULD NOT DRIVE ANY WHERE. I WAS GOING ABOUT 35 MPH. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER AND TURN MY CAR OFF AND ON BOTH TIMES AND MAKE IT HOME. NOW MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON AND I'M NOT SURE IF I CAN EVEN DRIVE MY CAR OR IF IT WILL DIE ON ME AGAIN. *TR

YES, I TOO HAD PROBLEMS WITH MY 2011 CHEVY CRUZE. I WAS VERY GLAD THAT NOTHING HAPPENED TO ME WHILE I WAS DRIVING THE CAR, I WAS JUST SITTING AT AN IDLE STAGE; WHEN I HAD ALL THE BELLS GOING OFF AND IT HAD TOLD ME THAT ENGINE REDUCED POWER. I TO HAD TO GO AND GET THIS FIXED AND AGAIN LIKE EVERYONE ELSE IT WAS THE THROTTLE BODY AND FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM; COST $460. NOT EVEN A MONTH LATER NOW I HAVE NO HEAT IN THE CAR AND READING ALL THE FORUMS SOUNDS LIKE I AM GOING TO HAVE TO REPLACE A WATER PUMP; JOY FOR ME. AT FIRST I REALLY DID LOVE THIS CAR, BUT I FIND THAT THE AFTER THE WARRANTY GOES SEEMS LIKE THE CAR IS FALLING APART. WE SHOULD NOT BE HAVING THESE ISSUES THIS EARLY IN THE CAR'S LIFE. I ALSO FIND IT VERY BAD POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE ON GM'S PART THAT THEY ARE TURNING A BLIND EYE TO THIS. THESE PARTS NEED TO BE RECALLED ASAP, WHY IS NO ONE DOING ANYTHING ABOUT THIS? *TR

THREE WEEKS AGO, I STARTED HEARING A NOISE FROM THE BACK LEFT TIRE. TWO DAYS AGO THE ESP AND TRACTION LIGHT WENT ON AS WELL AS THE BRAKE FLUID LIGHT. EVERYTHING JUST STARTED HITTING AT THE SAME TIME. I THINK THE CAR IS RIGGED TO HAVE EVERYTHING GO BAD ONCE THE WARRANTY PERIOD IS UP. WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF THIS IS COVERED SINCE SO MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH IT. I CAN'T AFFORD TO FIX IT BUT THIS IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION. *TR

WHILE DRIVING AT NO SPECIFIC SPEED THE CAR ALERTS AND SAYS CHECK ENGINE, REDUCED ENGINE SPEED, AND CHECK STABILIZER TRACTION CONTROL. THE ENGINE THEN POWERS DOWN AND WILL NOT ACCELERATE. I WAS RECENTLY DRIVING AND THIS HAPPENED, TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT I ENDED UP IN A DITCH AND HAD TO BE TOWED OUT. I HAD THE CAR REPAIRED WHICH WAS COSTLY AND WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE POWER TRAIN WARRANTY CHEVY OFFERS. I FEEL THAT THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS DEFECT ON THE CAR AND SHOULD BE ADDRESSED AS A RECALL, DUE TO THE FIRST TIME I TRIED TO HAVE THE CAR REPAIRED I WAS TOLD IT WAS GONNA BE 4-6 WEEKS TO WAIT ON THE PART BECAUSE THEY WERE ON BACK ORDER BECAUSE THEY HAVE HAD QUITE A FEW CARS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. WHEN I ADDRESSED THIS ISSUE WITH CHEVY THEY HAD NO CONCERN THAT A CAR LOSING POWER WHILE TRAVELING WAS NO BIG DEAL. I WAS NEARLY REAR ENDED BY A SEMI-TRUCK AND WAS FORCED INTO A DITCH. *TR

LEAVING A PARKING LOT THE INSTRUMENT PANEL BEGAN TO BLINK ON AND OFF EVERY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STARTED TO COME ON AND OFF. POWER STEERING WAS LOST FOR A SHORT PERIOD. STILL IN THE PARKING LOT AT A STOP SIGN TURN THE ENGINE OFF. THE CAR WAS COMPLETELY DEAD, NO LIGHTS NO CLICKING NOISE WHEN YOU ATTEMPT TO RE START. OPENED HOOD CHECKED THE NEW BATTERY WIGGLED THE CABLES INTERIOR LIGHTS CAME ON AND CAR STARTED UP. SINCE THEN IT HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES EACH EVENT GETTING WORSE. EVENTUALLY IT DIED AND WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND IS BEING LOOKED AT. THIS SEEMS TO BE COMMON WITH CHEVROLET CRUZE.

THE ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL LIGHTS KEEP FLASHING ON AND OFF WHILE DRIVING. I WILL BE DRIVING MY CAR THEN THE LIGHT WARNING LIGHT WILL FLASH, AND ALL LIGHTS IN THE DASHBOARD WILL BLINK ON AND OFF. THE BLINKER NOISE WILL TURN OFF THEN ON AGAIN. HOWEVER, THE ELEC. STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT DOES NOT STAY ON PERMANENTLY. IT'S LIKE MY CAR DOES IT WHEN IT FEELS LIKE IT. I HAVE TO TURN MY CAR OFF FOR A FEW MIN AND START IT AGAIN TO GET IT BACK TO NORMAL. THIS HAPPENS AT ANY LOCATION AND SPEED. YESTERDAY 11/27/14 THIS OCCURRED AND STEERING BECAME DIFFICULT. I HAVE TAKEN MY CRUZE IN BEFORE REGARDING THIS AND WAS TOLD IT COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED, THEREFORE THERE WAS NO PROBLEM. I DO NOT WANT TO BE DRIVING MY CAR IN FEAR OF SAFETY. I HAVE MADE ANOTHER APPT AT ANOTHER DEALERSHIP AND WAS ALREADY TOLD THEY WOULD HAVE THE CAR ALL DAY AND DO NOT PROVIDE ANY TYPE OF COURTESY CAR...THAT I WOULD HAVE TO RENT A CAR. THIS SERVICE ALSO "MAY OR MAY NOT BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY" BECAUSE MY CRUZE IS FROM 2011 AND CURRENTLY HAVE OVER 50K MILES ON IT. I LOVE MY CRUZE, BUT THE SERVICE REGARDING THIS ISSUE IS TERRIBLE AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. VEHICLE SAFETY IS ON THE LINE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE ESP WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO RESTART. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNAVAILABLE.

THIS EXACT SAME THING HAS HAPPENED 2 TIMES. WHILE DRIVING NORMALLY 'SERVICE ESP' AND 'SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL' WARNINGS COME ON ALONG WITH THE ENGINE LIGHT AND THE 'STABILITRAK' LIGHT. THE ENGINE REMAINS RUNNING BUT DOES NOT SUPPLY POWER TO THE WHEELS RESULTING IN A TOTAL LOSS OF POWER TO THE CAR. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED, I TOOK IT TO A CERTIFIED CHEVY DEALER WHO TOLD ME IT WAS A BATTERY ISSUE AND REPLACED THE BATTERY. DIDN'T WORK. HAPPENED AGAIN WITHIN A WEEK. THIS SITUATION IS VERY UNSAFE AS THE VEHICLE COULD BE STUCK POWERLESS IN THE MIDDLE OF A TURN OR A NUMBER OF OTHER DANGEROUS SITUATION. THE CAR IS NOT ON GM'S RECALL LIST FOR ANY OF THE ONGOING RECALL ISSUES. *TR

I BOUGHT MY CRUZE IN NOVEMBER AT 11000 MILES . I HAD NO ISSUES WITH IT AT ALL UNTIL MARCH 21 AT 21000 MILES. I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY IT HAD BEEN A LONG TRIP AND MY CAR LIT UP SERVICE STABILITRAK AND SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL WARNING LIGHTS AND POWER STEERING. ALONG WITH MY DASH (SPEEDOMETER, ODOMETER GOING HAYWIRE) NO ENGINES PROBLEM JUST THAT LIGHT I CALLED THE DEALER WHO SAID THEY NEVER HEARD OF IT AND IT WAS PROBABLY A FLUTE. ABOUT A MONTH LATER IT HAPPENED AGAIN THEN ABOUT MAY IT WAS HAPPENING ONCE A WEEK NOT EVEN ON LONG DRIVES NO MORE ON MY MORNING COMMUTE TO WORK AND A COUPLE OF TIMES THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON NOT ALL THE TIME. ON JUNE 5 AT 22000 MILES MY CARS CONTROLS CAME ON THIS TIME THOUGH MY ABS LIGHT CAME ON ALONG WITH MY PARKING BREAK AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THEN MY CAR IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DOWNTIME DALLAS ON THE HIGHWAY MY CAR JUST STOPS ACCELERATING AND SLOWLY CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND I BARELY MADE IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD! IT WAS SO SCARY. I TURNED MY CAR OFF AND BACK ON ALL THE LIGHTS WERE OFF EXCEPT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT I WENT TO AUTOZONE AND THEY GAVE ME THE CODES IT WAS READING. ON MY WAY HOME IT DID THE SAME THING AND IT IS JUST THE SCARIEST THING. I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY DON'T KNOW WHY IT'S DOING IT AND WANT ME TO PAY OVER 600 JUST TO FIND OUT NOT TO EVEN FIX IT JUST TO SEE WHY! THIS IS THERE ISSUE NOT MINE I FEEL LIKE IMA CRASH EVERYTIME I DRIVE IT. I EVEN TOLD THEM DRIVING IT I FEEL LIKE MY LIFE IS IN DANGER AND THEY PRETTY MUCH SAID THAT'S MY ISSUE NOW WHEN I WAS SOLD THE CAR THE WARRANTY WAS OUT AND THEY DIDN'T OFFER ME A EXTENDED I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO! THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL I'VE READ ONLINE OF OTHERS REPORTING THIS AND THEY AGREE IT IS SOMETHING THAT COULD POTENTIALLY KILL SOMEONE. *TR

HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES STARTING ABOUT A MONTH AGO, EITHER WHEN IDLE AT A LIGHT, DRIVING AROUND TOWN OR ON THE FREEWAY (I HAVE NOT BEEN AT FULL HWY SPEED WHEN THIS HAS OCCURRED) THE STABILITRAK WARNING COMES ON AND ENGINE POWER IS REDUCED TO PRACTICALLY NOTHING, I CAN'T TRAVEL OTHER THAN AT A SNAIL'S SPACE, WITH ABSOLUTELY NO ACCELERATION TO HELP GET OUT OF THE WAY. DRIVE TRAIN SHAKES A LITTLE. VERY DANGEROUS POSITION TO BE IN. I TRIED TO SHUT OFF THE STABILITRAK AND THAT SEEMED TO WORK UNTIL THE LAST INCIDENCE WHEN THE ISSUE OCCURRED WITH STABILITRAK TURNED OFF. THE ONLY WAY I CAN GET THE CAR TO RESET IS TO SHUT IT OFF FOR A FEW SECONDS AND TURN IT BACK ON. MIGHT GO A FEW DAYS WITHOUT ANY CONCERNS, THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN, IT STARTS UP AGAIN. ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON FOR A FEW ON/OFF CYCLES THEN GOES AWAY. *TR

THE CAR WAS DRIVE ABLE AFTER POWERING DOWN FOR A FEW SECONDS, BUT A FEW MILES DOWN THE ROAD IT WOULD GO INTO REDUCED ENGINE POWER MODE AGAIN. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES OVER THE LAST WEEK.
