2011 CHEVROLET CRUZE Unknown Or Other Problems

I think even though it says no recalls on my mother's car I think it is part of this recall because it keeps happening after repaired correctly by her car repair person. She had it fixed twice for leaking antifreeze then after fixed twice it was fine for a bit then it blew all out and said overheating like what I read in this website link on recall. Know unable to drive it till fixed correctly https://www.vehiclehistory.com/questions/what-is-the-chevy-cruze-antifreeze-leak-recall-about-107459 so she needs it covered to get fixed permanently for good forever for free at here local gm.

I have a massive oil leak and have changed all the parts and it's still has a massive oil leak only when driven what can be done to stop it please help running out of cashmony🥺

Real bad oil leak my oil been leaking for months and a intake manifold code P2076 I really need this problem fix. I done spend a lot of money getting this car repaired everytime I get this Chevy Cruze out the shop something else wrongs I can’t out no more money into this car too many car problems I haven’t drove this car in 3 weeks because I was driving somewhere and white smoke started coming out the tailpipe bad somebody called the fire department and police on me that’s how bad the smoke was coming out the tailpipe mind you I had just got the car out the shop i had got code P0303 fix this car cost me alot of money I got alot of repairs done on this car

MY TRUNK IS COMING OPEN ON ITS OWN. SOMETIMES WHEN I UNLOCK MY CAR THE TRUNK WILL POP OPEN OTHER TIMES IT WILL JUST POP OPEN WHEN I'M DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. IT IS NOT MY KEY FOB BECAUSE I HAVE USED DIFFERENT KEY FOBS THAT I HAVE AND THE PROBLEM IS STILL HAPPENING. THIS IS DANGEROUS WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY. THIS CAN HAPPEN WHEN IT'S SITTING IN THE DRIVEWAY. OVERNIGHT I WAKE UP IN THE MORNING AND THE TRUNK IS OPEN OR WHEN I'M DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THIS STARTED HAPPENING JUST THIS MONTH AND HAS BEEN HAPPENING SPORADICALLY BUT AT LEAST ONCE A DAY IF NOT MORE. I'VE DONE SOME RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET AND I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE THIS IS HAPPENING TO WITH THEIR CHEVY CRUZE. I THINK IT RECALL IS AN ORDER BEFORE A WRECK DOES HAPPEN IF IT HASN'T ALREADY.

BOTH OF MY KEYS HAVE BROKEN OFF. THANKFULLY, THEY'VE NEVER BEEN STUCK IN MY IGNITION, BUT THEY HAVE BOTH SNAPPED OFF. I WAS PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY (I HAD JUST ARRIVED) AND WENT TO TURN MY IGNITION OFF AND THE KEY SNAPPED AT THE BASE, BY WHERE THE PIN HOLDS IT. THE KEY ITSELF IS OK, BUT COMPLETELY SEPARATED FROM THE BASE OR HOUSING. PLEASE NOTE THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED, I THOUGHT MY 11 YEAR OLD BROKE THE FIRST ONE SO I HAVE BEEN USING THE SPARE. THE BREAK LOOKS EXACTLY THE SAME THIS TIME AS THE FIRST TIME, I JUST MUST HAVE DROPPED THE ACTUAL KEY PART OUT WITHOUT NOTICING.

THE CAR IS HESITATING AFTER STOPPING WHETHER ITS A LIGHT OR SIGN ALSO HAS WHILE IN MOTION WHICH ALMOST GOT ME HIT! !T1HERE IS ALSO A BURNING SMELL AT TIMES! I HAVE HAD IT LOOKED AT WITHIN THE MONTH AND THEY SAID IT WAS A SENSOR , NO-ONE SEEMS TO KNOW WHAT TO DO ! BOU8GHT THIS CAR FROM HONDA IN ANDERSON INDIANA!! ITS HAD PROBLEMS THE WHOLE TIME I'VE HAD IT1 ILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER CRUZE

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!

CAR HAS CONSTANTLY BEEN SLOW IN SHIFTING GEARS WHEN IN AUTOMATIC

Mileage: 102,000

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.

Mileage: 153,000

CARS HEAT DOES NOT HEAT UP, BLOWS OUT COLD AIR. IT IS ALWAYS ONE CLICK ABOVE COLD WHEN IN MOTION, WHEN SITTING STILL IT WILL HEAT UP 2 CLICKS ABOVE COLD. THIS IS A PROBLEM ON THIS CAR AND THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS. THE PROBLEM DOES NOT SEEM TO BE FIXABLE, EVEN WHEN REPLACING THE THE HEATER CORE OR WIRING.

TRANSMISSION FAIL, TOO MUCH IGNITION LEAKING

Mileage: 678,888

MOST OTHER GMC AND CHEVY MODELS WERE RECALLED FOR THIS, BUT NOT THIS ONE. IT CLEARLY IS AN ISSUE HERE AS WELL. THE IGNITION CYLINDER LOCK JAMMED. THE KEY WAS STUCK INSIDE AND UNABLE TO TURN OFF THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY, LEAVING IT ON BATTERY MODE.

Mileage: 94,500

WHILE DRIVING MY 2011 CHEVROLET CRUZE LT WHEN IT GETS T0 BETWEEN 30-40 MPH THE RPMS WILL GO EXTREMELY HIGH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL COME ON AND THE CAR WILL SLOW DOWN AS IT IS SLOWING DOWN IT WILL JERK INTO THE LOWER GEARS IF I DON'T PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL. SINCE I DON'T HAVE A READER FOR THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT I HAVE TO PULL OVER AND DISCONNECT MY BATTERY TO GET THAT TO SHUT OFF. I HAVE TO LET MY CAR ENGINE/TRANSMISSION COOL DOWN BEFORE DRIVING AGAIN OTHERWISE I WILL ONLY MAKE IT EIGHTH OF A MILE DOWN THE ROAD AND THE SAME THING HAPPENS. I WANT THIS PROBLEM FIXED. I OFFICIALLY HATE MY CAR BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM. MAKES ME NEVER WANT TO BUY A CHEVROLET AGAIN. I HAVE SEEN MAY COMPLAINTS OF THIS HAPPENING TO THIS YEAR OF CAR. THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED AND FIXED FREE OF CHARGE.

Mileage: 122,000

HAVE A 2011 CHEVY CRUZE THAT I BOUGHT A FEW YEARS AGO, FROM CARMAX. SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR A FEW YEARS AGO, MY CAR HAS ALWAYS BEEN VERY WARM ON THE DRIVERS SIDE FOOT AREA, AND WHERE MY LEG RESTS THERE IS A PANEL ON THE RIGHT OF THE GAS PEDDLE THAT IS WHERE THE HEAT COMES FROM. I HAVE BROUGHT MY CAR A FEW TIMES TO THE DEALERSHIP AFTER I NOTICED HOW HOT IT GOT IN THAT AREA. OVER 130F! (I GAVE UP AT THIS TIME,) LAST WEEK, MY WIFE HAD A SMALL REAR END CRASH ON MY CAR. NOTHING MAJOR BUT WE TOOK IT TO THE BODY SHOP TO GET WORK ON. WHEN I BROUGHT THE CAR IN TO THEM, I ASKED THEM IF THEY CAN PUT SOME NEW INSULATION PIPE ON MY CAR HEAT PIPES, BECAUSE THE OLD ONES WERE PROBABLY NEEDING TO BE REPLACED. WHEN THE REPLACED IT AND MY CAR WAS READY FOR PICK UP, THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY PUT THE NEW INSULATION ON IT, BUT THEY SHOWED ME THE OLD ONE. THE OLD ONE WAS BURNT AND THEY SAID COULD HAVE ALMOST CAUGHT FIRE THOSE PIPES. ALONG WITH THE SIDE PANEL WAS WARPING DUE TO THE AMOUNT OF HEAT COMING OUT OF THERE. I TOLD THEM AT THE TIME, THAT ITS A SAFETY ISSUE, BUT THEY SAID BECAUSE MY WARRANTY IS EXPIRED FROM YEARS AGO, THEY HAVE TO CHARGE ME FOR INSPECTING IT, FROM THERE IF THEY FIND A ISSUE THEN WE CAN DISCUSS WITH GM WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO HANDLE TO REPAIRS AND COSTS. (I TOLD THEM I WOULD GET BACK TO THEM ABOUT THAT.)

BURNING SMELL FROM ENGINE. BACK IN MAY 2016 I STARTED SMELLING THIS BURNING SMELL AFTER YOU DROVE THE CAR FOR 20 MINS. I BRING IT UP TO THE DEALER EVERY TIME I HAVE TO TAKE THE CAR IN. THEY CAN NEVER FIND THE SOURCE. THEY THOUGHT A OIL PAN LEAK WAS IT. THAT WAS FIXED AND THE SMELL STILL IS THERE. THEY CLAIMED TO FIND AN OIL LEAK ANOTHER TIME AND FIXED. THEN IT WAS A TRANSMISSION LEAK, WHICH WAS FIXED AND STILL THE SMELL. THERE IS NEVER FLUID UNDER THE CAR. I HAVE THE SMELL NOTED EVERY TIME.

ON OCTOBER 19,2018 MY IN LAWS WERE TRAVELING NORTH ON ROUTE 61 IN PENNSYLVANIA. THEY CAN TO A RED LIGHT AND RAN INTO THE BACK OF A MINIVAN AND THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. THEN WE DONT KNOW WHAT HAPPENED, BUT THE CAR ACCELERATED AND WENT THE LENGTH OF A FOOTBALL FIELD AND THEY HIT A POLE AND MY MOTHER IN LAW DIED INSTANTLY AND MY FATHER IN LAW DIED AT 5:10 AM.MY CONCERN IS WHY ISN'T IT AN INDUSTRY STANDARD THAT ONCE THE AIRBAGS ARE DEPLOYED THE THROTTLE DOESN'T SHUT DOWN. IF THE THROTTLE WOULD HAVE NOT WORKED THEY WAY STILL BE ALIVE.IF YOU CANT HELP ME COULD YOU SEND ME IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.

Mileage: 68,000

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.

Mileage: 87,500

ROLLED DOWN MY DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW WHILE AT A STOP LIGHT, IT MADE A CLICKING NOISE AND WHEN I TRIED TO ROLL IT UP, THE WINDOW FELL INTO THE DOOR. THE WINDOW WOULDN'T ROLL BACK UP AND MADE MORE CLICKING NOISES WHEN I TRIED TO ROLL IT UP

AFTER AWHILE OF OWNING MY VEHICLE I NOTICED MY AC/HEATER BLOWER BEGAN TO STOP BLOWING OUT OF MY VENTS, AND IT ONLY BLOWS OUT OF THE DEFROST VENT. WITH THE BLOWER ON MY WINDOWS BECOME VERY FOGGED AND HARD TO SEE. I TOOK IT TO A REPAIR CENTER AND FOUND OUT THAT IT WOULD END UP COSTING ME $1000 TO FIX A $15 PIECE. WITH HAVING TO REMOVE MY ENTIRE DASH. THEY TOLD ME IT WAS A LEVER OF SOME SORT AND THERE IS NO OTHER WAY TO GET TO IT.

Mileage: 165,000

CHROME IS PEELING ON INTERIOR DOOR HANDLES LEAVING RAZOR SHARP EDGES. UNSUSPECTING PASSENGERS OR DRIVER CAN BE SERIOUSLY CUT BY THE MATERIAL. THIS IS ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS TO CHILDREN EXITING THE CAR.

I WAS MADE AWARE OF THE MULTIPLE RECALLS MY VEHICLE HAD THROUGH MY PEPBOYS DASHBOARD WHICH IS WHERE I GET MY CAR SERVICED. I WAS TOLD THAT THIS RECALL WAS ACTIVE WHEN I WAS SOLD THE CAR LAST FEBRUARY 2017 IN WHICH I AM CURRENTLY PAYING ON

TAKATA RECALL, I HAVE A 2011 CHEVY CRUZE. MY TURBO IS HAVING UNDERBOOST FAILURE AND NEEDS REPLACED. I CAN NO LONGER INCREASE SPEED WHILE DRIVING ON THE ROAD TO PASS CARS OR GO UP HILLS, I HAVE SEEN SEVERAL OTHER CHEVY CRUZES WITH THE SAME YEAR BEEN RECALLED FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. WHEN I TYPED MY VIN NUMBER IN NOTHING POPPED UP. SO WHY DOESN'T MY CAR QUALIFY ?

Mileage: 66,000

TAKATA RECALL, TRANSMISSION FAILURE, CAR NOT SHIFTING INTO GEARS. DRIVING ON CITY STREET AT A STOP LIGHT AND THE CAR WOULD NOT ADVANCE FORWARD, I HAD TO PHYSICALLY PUSH IT OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO LET TRAFFIC PASS. CAR WILL NOT ADVANCE IN FORWARD OR REVERSE.

THE HOSE THAT CONNECTS TO THE COOLANT FOR THE AC SYSTEM ALWAYS BREAKS AND THE HEATING AND COOLING STOPS WORKING, THIS IS UNSAFE BECAUSE IT MAY CAUSE OVERHEATING OF THE ENGINE IF NOT REPAIRED.

" TAKATA RECALL" TRANSMISSION FAILURE

Mileage: 41,000

IN THE LAST 4 MONTHS MY TRACKING CONTROL, STABILITY TRACTION CONTROL, AND REDUCE ENGINE POWER LIGHT STAYS ON. I HAVE HAD KNOCK CENSOR REPLACED, VALUE COVERS BUT NOTHING HAS WORKED. MY CAR CONSTANTLY CUTS OFF IN IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC AND THREE TIMES ON THE FREEWAY AT 65 MILES. THE CAR IS VERY UNSAFE AND YET THERE ARE NO RECALLS ON MY CAR.

NOTICED I WAS LOSING COOLANT RAPIDLY, FULL TANK WITHIN 1-2 DAYS, ONLY DRIVING ABOUT 7 MILES TO WORK AND BACK. . TOOK TO DEALERSHIP (WHERE PURCHASED) AND THEY DETERMINED ENGINE COOLANT LEAKING FROM FAULTY WATER PUMP. THOUGHT THE ISSUE WOULD BE COVERED BY GM EXTENDED WARRANTY BECAUSE ALREADY EXISTING SPECIAL COVERAGE BULLETIN 14371A, EXISTED FOR THIS ISSUE IN 1.4L ENGINE, ...BUT NOT FOR THE 1.8L ENGINE, WHICH IS WHAT I OWN. THE WATER PUMP IN THE 1.4L IS THE EXACT SAME PART IN THE 1.8L ENGINE, SO I'M LEAD TO BELIEVE THAT THE WATER PUMP IN MY VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED DUE TO IT BEING A FAULTY PART, IN GENERAL. WATER PUMP WAS REPLACED AND HAVE EXPERIENCED NO MORE LEAKAGE. I AM UNABLE TO ATTACH THE SERVICE INVOICE FROM MCKINLEYVILLE CHEVROLET AND BUICK, BUT CAN PROVIDE HARD COPY.

I WENT TO START IT AGAIN LATER IN THE EVENING ( 7 HOURS ONLY FROM WHEN I BOUGHT IT ) AND IT WOULD NOT START, LIGHTS WORKED BUT IT WOULD NOT START.

TAKATA RECALL. I DRIVE A 2011 CHEVROLET CRUZE WITH APPROXIMATELY 57000 MILES. LAST WEEK I WAS DRIVING IN TRAFFIC WHEN THE CAR SUDDENLY BEGAN TO LOSE POWER. ON MY DASHBOARD NOTICE CENTER THE MESSAGE "ENGINE POWER REDUCED" FLASHED. THE CAR LOST ACCELERATION AND BECAME VERY DIFFICULT TO CONTROL. I WAS SURROUNDED BY TRAFFIC AND VERY LUCKY I DID NOT GET HIT AS I MANAGED TO GET IT TO COAST INTO A PARKING LOT. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. AFTER DOING ONLINE RESEARCH I WAS SHOCKED TO SEE THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO. UNFORTUNATELY IT SEEMS TO HAPPEN AFTER THE 50,000 MILE MARK ON THESE VEHICLES AND USUALLY AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRES

ON 12-5-15 I WAS ON MY WAY TO CT FROM MASS AND WAS ON 91. ABOUT 45 MINUTES INTO THE TRIP THE CAR BEGAN TO LOOSE POWER AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE SERVICE STABLITRACK LIGHT CAME ON. AS SOON AS THE LIGHT CAME ON THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE AND RPM GAUGE WOULD FLING UP AND DOWN QUICKLY! I IMMEDIATELY WENT FROM 65 MPH TO 30 MPH.( I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED BY A CAR BEHIND ME) I COASTED MY WAY TO THE RIGHT LANE AND WAS ABLE TO GET OFF THE EXIT. THE CAR TOOK ABOUT 4 HOURS TO GO BACK TO NORMAL. ( I RETURNED TO MASS, I HAD TO TAKE THE BACK WAY HOME AND AVOID THE HIGHWAY AS THE CAR STILL HAD REDUCE SPEED) THE CAR WILL RETURN TO NORMAL AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL GO OFF. EVERYDAY NOW THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL COME ON AND IT WILL SAY SERVICE STABLITRACK. THE CAR IMMEDIATELY LOOSES POWER AND YOU CAN HEAR THE ENGINE (SOUNDS LIKE A FAN BLOWING HARD) THE TRANSMISSION WILL NOT SHIFT. THE RPM WILL JUMP TO 4-5 WHILE ONLY GETTING TO A SPEED OF 35 MPH. THE DEALER HAS NO IDEA WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT. THIS CAR WAS BOUGHT IN JANUARY OF 2015 AND HAS LESS THAN 65,000 MILES ON IT. I HAVE READ A FEW COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SIMILAR SITUATION HAPPENING TO THE SAME CAR I HAVE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE!!! THE CAR HAS BEEN SERVICED ON TIME!!! PLEASE HELP ME!! I REFUSE TO TAKE THE HIGHWAY AS I NEVER KNOW WHEN THIS IS GOING TO HAPPEN.....

WHEN THE CABIN HEATING SYSTEM IS ACTIVATED IN COOL/COLD WEATHER.(THE TEMP SETTING INDICATOR TO MAX HEAT AND THE CAR ENGINE IS AT THE NORMAL OPERATING RANGE). THERE IS A BURNT RUBBER SMELL OR EXHAUST SMELL THAT COMES OUT OF THE VENTILATION SYSTEM. THE DEALER HAS BEEN UNABLE TO FIND THE CAUSE. THE SMELL WILL GO AWAY IF THE TEMP SETTING IS REDUCE TO THE COLD SIDE OF THE SCALE (IE THE BLUE LINE AND NOT THE RED LINE). I HAVE READ OF OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SAME ISSUE BUT DID NOT FIND IT ON THIS SITE. IN THE WORST CASE THIS MAY BE CO LEAKING INTO THE CABIN OR IT COULD BE RELATED TO SOME RUBBER LIKE COMPONENT OFF-GASING BECAUSE OF THE HOT AIR. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE CAR IS MOVING OR STANDING STILL, BUT THE ENGINE MUST BE IN THE NORMAL OPERATING TEMP RANGE AS SHOWN ON THE TEMP GAUGE. THIS HAS OCCUR EVERY YEAR SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR.

I WAS INJURED IN ACCIDENT.... HIT A STATIONARY VEHICLE.... THERE'S SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE...MY AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY... I AM SUFFERING FROM A SEVERE CERVICAL STRAIN, SEVERE NECK SPRAIN WITH INFLATION CAUSING SEVERE HEADACHES, A SEVERE UPPER AND LOWER BACK SPRAIN WITH INFLAMMATION CASING PRESSURE ON MY SCIATIC NERVE... I CANNOT LIFT, BEND , STAND , SIT, LIE DOWN FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME, I EVEN HAVE TO HAVE HELP JUST TOO BATHE.. I BELIEVE THAT HAD DEPLOYED... MY INJURIES WERE NOT HAVE BEEN SO SEVERE.

THIS HAPPENED TWICE: I WAS GOING DOWN A MOUNTAIN IN SOUTHWESTERN VA, WHERE I AM FROM, AND IT WAS LIKE THE BRAKES WERE GRABBING. I COULD FEEL IT IN THE BRAKE PEDDLE, STEERING WHEEL, AND FLOOR. I THOUGHT THEY WERE NOT GOING TO STOP ME. WE PULLED THE FRONT TIRES TO CHECK THE BRAKES AND ROTORS, AND THEY ARE BOTH FINE..THE PASSENGER WITH ME COULD FEEL IT TOO BOTH TIMES.

THIS INCIDENT WITH MY CHEVROLET CRUZE HAS HAPPENED ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION IN THE SAME MONTH. I WILL BE DRIVING, COMING TO A STOP AND THE WHOLE CAR WILL TURN OFF ON ME.

PRAYING THAT ME AND MY TWO YEAR OLD DON'T GET INTO AN ACCIDENT THROUGHOUT THE INCIDENT.

AFTER BUYING MY BRAND NEW 2011 CHEVROLET CRUSE LS STICK SHIFT MODEL ON AUGUST 10, 2011, SOME TIME PASSED. THEN, I NOTICED A MINOR PROBLEM. AND I AM STRESSING MINOR, BECAUSE THIS CAR NOW HAS 40 THOUSAND MILES ON IT AND IS STILL A GREAT CAR, BUT STILL HAS THE EXACT SAME ISSUE AS FOLLOWS: WHEN I TURN THE KEY THE FIRST TIME TO TRY TO START THE VEHICLE, IT MAKES A NOISE BUT THE ENGINE DOES NOT START. THEN, ALWAYS, ON THE SECOND TRY IT FIRES RIGHT UP! I NOTICE THIS MORE OFTEN WHEN THE CAR HAS BEEN DRIVEN, AND IS STILL WARM(ENGINE). NOW WITH 40 THOUSAND MILES ON THE VEHICLE, IT IS A LITTLE EASING TO MY MIND KNOWING THAT THIS MAY NOT PROGRESS INTO SOMETHING OF A BIGGER PROBLEM. AT LEAST I HOPE NOT. ANOTHER COUPLE OF PROBLEMS I MUST NOTE IS AS FOLLOWS, BUT HAVE NOT PROVEN TO BE OF ANY CONCERN WHATSOEVER: AT TIMES THERE IS A GRINDING NOISE COMING FROM, PERHAPS THE ENGINE??) WHEN THE CAR IS IDLE, AND IN NEUTRAL, AT SAY, A RED LIGHT OR AT A DRIVE THROUGH WINDOW. DOES NOT OCCUR ALL THE TIME, BUT A LOT OF THE TIME. THIRDLY, THE KEY BROKE OFF WHEN I TRIED TO PULL MY KEYS OUT OF THE IGNITION ONE TIME. THE DEALER WAS VERY SUPPORTIVE ON THIS ISSUE AND FIXED MY KEYS PROMPTLY AND EFFECTIVELY. HOWEVER, I HAVE MENTIONED THE STARTING(MINOR AS IT SEEMS) ISSUE TO MY DEALER WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. THEY, AS I LIKELY EXPECTED, TOLD ME THERE WERE NO CODES OR ANYTHING UNUSUAL THEY COULD FIND THAT MAY LEAD TO THIS ISSUE.THUS FAR I RATE MY CRUZE A SOLID 9 OUT OF 10! I ENJOY DRIVING MY VEHICLE AND IT GETS GREAT GAS MILEAGE AND DRIVES MORE LIKE A TOP OF THE LINE VEHICLE. I ALWAYS FEEL SAFE WHEN DRIVING IT. CHEVY DID A NICE JOB WITH ITS CRUZE. (INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR). I LOVE THE POWER FROM THE 1.8 4. THE STICK SHIFT NICELY SHIFTS AND PROVIDES THE CAR WITH MORE POWER. I AM GLAD I DON'T HAVE THE AUTOMATIC. HOPE I ASSISTED YOU WITH ANYTHING THAT MAY BE ABLE TO BE ADDRESSED. THANK YOU.

I USE THIS SITE TO CHECK FOR OPEN RECALLS FOR MY JOB. I AM WONDERING WHY IT IS SO OUTDATED??? I CAN SEE A FEW WEEKS, BUT A RECALL THAT WAS "POSTED" IN NOVEBER 2014 SHOULD BE ON THIS WEB SITE BY NOW. WHY THE OUTDATED INFORMATION??? *TR

ON MY 2011 CHEVY CRUZE I HAVE NOTICED THAT MY RADIATOR COOLANT TANK HAS BEEN LEAKING OUT ANTIFREEZE. I HAVE NOTICED THAT IN MAY 7TH 2013. I HAD IT TAKEN INTO THE DEALER AND IT GOT FIXED BY THE DEALER ON DATE LISTED. I HAVE CONTINUED TO BUY MORE OF THE SPECIAL BRAND OF COOLANT AND JUST BEEN FILLING IT UP WITHOUT HAVING TO GO TO THE DEALER BECAUSE THEN I HAVE NO VEHICLE TO DRIVE. LAST NIGHT ON 1/11/14 I PUT MORE ANTIFREEZE IN THE VEHICLE AND WAS GOING TO CHECK ON IT THE NEXT MORNING. I NOTICED THAT ON 1/12/14 THE NEXT DAY THAT THE RADIATOR COOLANT TANK WAS ALMOST EMPTY AFTER FILLING IT UP ALL THE WAY LAST NIGHT. LOOKING AROUND MY FATHER AND I SAW ANTIFREEZE SITTING ON THE TRANSMISSION AND NO HOSES ARE LEAKING. IT IS BEING TAKEN INTO THE DEALER AGAIN ON 1/13/14 FOR THIS ISSUE AGAIN. I HAVE FILLED A COMPLAINT WITH GM AND GOT A CASE #. GM CUSTOMER SERVICE NOTIFIED ME THAT IF THIS HAPPENS AGAIN AFTER BEING TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP TO CALL THEM AGAIN. MY FATHERS GUESS IS THAT THE PRESSURE IN THAT TANK IS 20PSI AND SINCE THE HOSE DOES NOT APPEAR TO LEAK THAT THE ANTI FREEZE FROM THE RADIATOR COOLANT TANK IS COMING OUT OF THE TANK FROM THE PRESSURE CAP.

MY 2011 CHEVY CRUZE HAS AN ACCELERATION HESITATION. STARTING ABOUT 2 MONTHS AFTER I BOUGHT THE CAR IN 2010 THE ISSUE BEGAN. WHEN I NEED TO ACCELERATE IN CERTAIN SITUATIONS SUCH AS PULLING OUT ON A ROAD, PASSING ANOTHER VEHICLE, ACCELERATING AFTER REDUCING SPEED, ETC. ETC. THE CAR LOSES POWER WHEN I STEP ON THE GAS FOR THREE-FIVE SECONDS BEFORE SLOWLY RESPONDING AND ACCELERATING TO WHERE I NEED IT TO BE. IT'S AS IF THE CAR DIES FOR A FEW SECONDS. THOSE FEW SECONDS ARE ALWAYS IN SITUATIONS WHEN I NEED TO BE MOVING. I BROUGHT THE CAR IN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS NORMAL.THE ISSUE IS GETTING WORSE SO I BROUGHT THE CAR IN TO DEALERSHIP AGAIN AND WAS TOLD THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG.MY CAR WAS IN FOR OTHER RECALLS AND THEY GAVE ME A LOANER 2013 CRUZE TO DRIVE. THE NEWER CRUZE DID NOT HAVE THE HESITATION PROBLEM AT ALL, IT DROVE BEAUTIFULLY. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL THAT HAVE THIS SAME ISSUE. IT IS DANGEROUS!! JUST BECAUSE NO ONE THAT WE KNOW OF HASN'T DIED YET THAT DOESN'T MEAN THAT THERE ISN'T AN ISSUE. THE 2011 CRUZE IS UNSAFE AND SOMEONE NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. *TR

THE FIRST SAFETY ISSUE WAS NOTICED WITHIN THE FIRST WEEK OF OWNERSHIP. THE AIR BAG INDICATOR LIGHT INDICATED "OFF" WITH AN ADULT PASSENGER IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THIS CAR HAS BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP 4 TIMES FOR THIS ISSUE AND IT REMAINS UNSOLVED. THE SECOND SAFETY ISSUE WAS NOTICED IN OCTOBER OR NOVEMBER 2012. THE CAR FILLS WITH AN ODOR OF ANTI-FREEZE WHEN THE HEATER IS IN USE. THE CAR HAS BEEN TO DEALERSHIP 4 TIMES FOR THIS ISSUE AND IT REMAINS UNSOLVED. I FEEL THESE ARE BOTH EXTREME SAFETY ISSUES THAT SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED AS IT APPEARS TO BE A PROBLEM IN MANY OF THE 2011 CRUZES. *TR

I THINK WE HAVE A ANTI FREEZE SMELL INSIDE THE CAR WHEN EVER THE HEATER IS USED. I CAN NO LONGER DRIVE THE CAR IF I AM GOING TO NEED HEAT. DEALER WORKED ON THE CAR 4 TIMES AND HAS NOT FIXED THE PROBLEM. THE ONLY SMELL GM WILL ADMIT TO IS A HOT PLASTIC SMELL. EVEN IF IT IS HOT PLASTIC WHAT IS IT DOING TO PEOPLES HEALTH? I FEEL SICK AND NAUSEOUS WHEN USING THE HEATER.

WHEN CHEVY CRUZE REACHES FULL OPERATING TEMPERATURE, USING THE HEATER PRODUCES A VERY STRONG SMELL COMES FROM THE HEATING DUCTS INSIDE THE CAR. ESPECIALLY DURING USE OF THE DEFROST SETTING. THE SMELL IS LIKE BURNING ANTIFREEZE AND BURNING PLASTIC. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE HEATER IS SET TO FULL HOT. FAN SPEED DOESN'T SEEM TO MATTER. THIS ONLY EXISTS ONCE THE CAR HAS REACHED FULL OPERATING TEMP. WITH THE CAR OFF OVER NIGHT RESIDUAL SMELL STILL PERMEATES INSIDE THE CAR. THE SMELL ON A 30 MINUTE COMMUTE IS SO BAD THAT I FEEL DIZZY, NAUSEOUS, AND I HAVE TO ROLL THE WINDOWS DOWN EVEN WHEN IT IS COLD OUTSIDE. I HAVE ASKED OTHERS TO RIDE WITH ME AND EVERY PERSON HAS EXPERIENCED THE SMELL.

WHEN YOU BACK OFF THE THROTTLE AND SLOW TO 20 TO 25 MPH, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT THE CAR WILL DO. IT MAY COAST LIKE A NORMAL CAR. IT MAY DOWNSHIFT AND SLOW MODERATELY. OR IT MAY DOWNSHIFT TO FIRST GEAR AND SLOW RADICALLY. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, THE COMPUTER TAKES FULL CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. YOU STEP ON THE GAS AND NOTHING HAPPENS. THE COMPUTER HAS CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE FOR THE NEXT 5 SECONDS. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 40 DIFFERENT TIMES. THIS CREATES A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. FIRST, I AM IN THE DRIVER SEAT AND I SHOULD HAVE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. I DO NOT. SECONDLY, MOST PEOPLE DRIVE WITH THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC. IF I SLOW RADICALLY FOR ABSOLUTELY NO REASON AND ALL OF THE DRIVERS AROUND ME CONTINUE ON, SOMEONE BEHIND ME WILL RUN INTO ME. IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE A DISTRACTED DRIVER SMASHES INTO ME. AND THIRDLY, SINCE I NEVER TOUCHED THE BRAKE, THE BRAKE LIGHT NEVER CAME ON. THE DRIVER BEHIND ME HAVE NO WAY OF KNOWING THAT I AM RADICALLY SLOWING AND CREATING SUCH A DANGEROUS SITUATION. IF YOU STEP ON THE GAS TO GET THE CAR TO GO, NOTHING HAPPENS. THEN THE COMPUTER RETURNS CONTROL TO THE DRIVER AND THE CAR TAKES OFF AT FULL SPEED. IF YOU STEP ON THE BRAKE, THE COMPUTER TAKES OVER. YOU THEN MUST COME TO A FULL COMPLETE STOP BEFORE THE COMPUTER WILL RETURN CONTROL TO THE DRIVER. IF YOU ARE MAKING A TURN WHEN THE CAR RADICALLY SLOWS, YOU COULD VERY EASILY LOOSE CONTROL. WHEN THE PAVEMENT IS WET OR SLIPPERY, THE PROBLEM IS GREATLY INCREASED. YOU ARE TOTALLY AT THE MERCY OF AN INSANE COMPUTER. FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME IF YOU NEED ANY FURTHER INFORMATION. PLEASE GO TO THE LOCAL CHEVY DEALER AND TEST DRIVE A CRUZE WITH THE AUTOMATIC SIX SPEED TRANSMISSION. YOU WILL SEE WHAT I MEAN.

I WAS DRIVING AT 30 MPH AND LOOKING TO CHANGE LANES. I BACKED OFF THE THROTTLE TO LET ONE CAR PASS. JUST WHEN THERE WAS AN OPENING IN TRAFFIC AND I WAS READY TO ACCELERATE, THE COMPUTER TOOK FULL CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE DOWNSHIFTED TO FIRST GEAR AND RAPIDLY SLOWED TO 10 MPH. AT THIS POINT THERE WAS NO LONGER AN OPENING IN TRAFFIC AND I HAD TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AND WAIT FOR ANOTHER OPENING IN TRAFFIC. I HAVE AN EXCELLENT DRIVING RECORD AND I DID NOT ACCOMPLISH THIS BY DOING STUPID THINGS LIKE COMING TO A DEAD STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD FOR NO REASON. I CONTINUED ON. A QUARTER OF A MILE DOWN THE ROAD I BACKED OFF THE THROTTLE TO SLOW FOR A CURVE. AGAIN THE COMPUTER TOOK FULL CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. WHEN I WENT TO ACCELERATE, THE VEHICLE BOGGED TERRIBLY. FOR THE NEXT 5 SECONDS I HAD ABSOLUTELY NO THROTTLE RESPONSE. AGAIN I AM SLOWING FOR NO REASON AND CREATING A HAZARD. I CONTINUED ON. TWO MILES DOWN THE ROAD I STOPPED FOR A TRAFFIC LIGHT. I WAS LOOKING TO MAKE A HALF LEFT. WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN, I EASED FORWARD AT TWO MILES AN HOUR WAITING FOR AN OPENING IN TRAFFIC. WHEN THERE WAS AN OPENING IN TRAFFIC, I BEGAN MY TURN AND STEPPED ON THE GAS. THE VEHICLE CONTINUED AT THE SAME SPEED AND THEN BEGAN TO ACCELERATE VERY SLOWLY. I NEARLY GOT HIT BY AN ONCOMING CAR. THE OTHER DRIVER DID NOT EXPECT ME TO CONTINUE MY TURN AT 2 MPH. I CONTINUED ON. ANOTHER TWO MILES DOWN THE ROAD, THE VEHICLE FAILED AGAIN. I WAS EASING FORWARD AT 2 MPH, WAITING FOR AN OPENING IN TRAFFIC TO MAKE A RIGHT TURN. WHEN IT WAS CLEAR I BEGAN MY TURN AND GAVE THE CAR THROTTLE. AGAIN THE CAR FAILED TO ACCELERATE. I WAS THEN FORCE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND WAIT FOR A VERY LARGE OPENING IN TRAFFIC. AGAIN THE DRIVERS BEHIND ME ARE WONDERING WHY I AM STOPPING FOR NO REASON. ALL FOUR FAILURES HAPPENED WITHIN 5 MILES. I NEED MORE ROOM TO DESCRIBE TH
