STRUCTURE:BODY:DOOR
I BOUGHT A 2011 CHEVY CRUZE FROM A OWNER, AND I DID NOT PAY ATTENTION TO THE PASSENGER DOOR HANDLE UNTIL AFTER I BOUGHT IT. THE THIN METAL WAS COMING OFF THE HANDLE. I TOUCHED IT AND IT CUT MY FINGER. I CALLED THE CHEVROLET PLACE CLOSE TO MY AREA AND THEY QUOTED ME A PRICE OF $80.00. I CALLED GMC, SINCE THE CAR IS FAIRLY NEW, AND DID NOT GET ANY HELP. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP, AND THE OFFICE MANAGER CAME OUT (HE WAS IN A WHEELCHAIR) TO LOOK AT THE DOOR. HE TOUCHED IT AND IT CUT HIS FINGER. I WAS CONCERNED ABOUT SOMEONE GETTING A CUT FROM THAT METAL SO I PAID TO HAVE THE HANDLE REPLACED. MY MAJOR CONCERN IS IF THIS CONTINUES TO HAPPEN WITH THESE DOOR HANDLES IN LESS THAN 3 YEARS OLD, AND SOME ONE IS DIABETIC, OR A SMALL CHILD GETS CUT AND INFECTED IT WOULD NOT BE A GOOD THING. WHEN I SAID THIS TO THE OFFICE MANAGER, HE INFORMED ME HE WAS A DIABETIC. I HAVE WENT ONLINE AND SAW ALL THE RECALLS FOR THIS PARTICULAR CAR. THE PREVIOUS OWNER ASSURED ME HE HAD THE RECALLS FIXED, BUT I DID NOT REALIZE THERE WERE SO MANY UNTIL AFTER I BOUGHT THE CAR. I PAID CASH FOR THIS CAR AND HAVE YET TO GET A TITLE. I CONTINUE TO CALL THE OWNER WHO EITHER IGNORES ME OR ISN'T GETTING MY CALL. I CALLED HIS WIFE YESTERDAY AND SHE ASSURED ME HER HUSBAND HAD THE TITLE. I HAD RECENTLY CALLED THE PREVIOUS OWNER AND ASK FOR PAPERWORK WHERE THE RECALL WORK WAS DONE. I HAVE HAD NO RETURN CALLS... AT THIS POINT WHAT SHOULD I DO? I FEEL LIKE I'VE BEEN SHAFTED, BUT I PAID 13000.00 FOR THE CAR AND THE PREVIOUS OWNER ASSURED ME I WOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY ADVELORUM TAXES, HE SAID THIS WAS TAKEN CARE OF. NOW ACCORDING TO THE TAG OFFICE I WILL HAVE TO PAY ANOTHER 800.00 OR SO FOR THE TAG WHICH I CAN'T GET WITHOUT A TITLE. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
TOOK MY 2011 CHEVY CRUZE INTO THE SHOP ON FEBRUARY AFTER THE RADIO, DASH, HEADLIGHTS BEGAN SHORTING OUT (FLICKERING ON AND OFF) THE DASH WOULD FLASH BACK ON IT A DIFFERENT LANGUAGE AND THEN RESET ITSELF ONCE THE CAR WAS TURNED OFF. INITIAL QUOTE FROM MECHANIC WAS THAT IT NEEDED A NEW ALTERNATOR. I THEN DID A INTERNET SEARCH TO FIND OUT MANY CONSUMERS ON FORUMS WERE REPORTING THE SAME PROBLEM. AT THAT TIME WE REFUSED WORK FROM THE MECHANIC AND TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY STATED IT WAS A COMMON PROBLEM AND THE GROUNDING WIRES WERE TIGHTENED. THE WORK WAS DONE AND ABOUT A MONTH LATER THE ISSUES STARTED HAPPENING AGAIN, THIS TIME WHEN THE "FLICKERING" WOULD HAPPEN, THEY DASH WOULD FLASH "SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL". THE CAR WAS RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY STATED THE CAR NEEDED NEW BATTERY CABLES. AFTER REVIEWING THE CONCERNS ON THE FORUMS FOR OTHER CRUZE CUSTOMERS WHO STATED THIS WAS REPLACED ON THEIR CARS AND THE PROBLEM KEPT HAPPENING, I WAS NOT SATISFIED WITH THAT OPTION, THE DEALERSHIP REFUSED TO INVESTIGATE FURTHER SO WE TOOK MY CAR HOME. THE PROBLEM PERSISTED, THIS WEEK, THE CAR BEGAN A NEW MALFUNCTION WHILE "FLICKERING" THE POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES WOULD QUIT WORKING, LEAVING YOU WITH NO CONTROL OF YOUR VEHICLE WHILE ON THE ROADS. MY HUSBANDS PICKED THE CAR UP FROM ME AND EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM ALONG WITH THE DOOR LOCKS RESETTING AND FEELING THE ENGINE CUTTING OUT "DYEING" THEN RESTARTING ITSELF. UPON OUT RETURN TO THE DEALERSHIP IT WAS ASKED THAT THEY INSPECT THE CAR WITH A FINE TOOTH COMB AND GET TO THE BOTTOM OF THE PROBLEM. AFTER READING SEVERAL REVIEWS, I AM NOT SATISFIED WITH THIS ANSWER. WE ARE GETTING THE CABLES REPLACED BUT WHAT IS PLAN C. THAT IS WHAT I AM INTERESTED IN. WHO HAS THE ANSWER TO THAT QUESTION? *TR

ENGINE
WHILE CRUISING ALONG THE HIGHWAY AT 65 MPH, SUDDENLY THE ENGINE STALLS AS IF ALL THE FUEL HAD STOPPED GOING TO IT. AFTER A FEW SECONDS OF STALL AND SLOWING DOWN WHILE PRESSING ON THE GAS ALL THE TIME, IT SUDDENLY BEGAN PICKING UP SPEED AGAIN. HOWEVER, THERE WAS AN EXTREMELY LARGE CLOUD OF SMOKE COMING OUT THE REAR OF THE CAR. THIS OCCURRED 4-5 MORE TIMES BEFORE I ARRIVED AT HOME. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THE NEXT BUSINESS DAY. AFTER SEVERAL DAYS THE DEALER REPORTED THE PROBLEM WOULD BE COVERED BY WARRANTY. THREE WEEKS LATER I GET THE CAR BACK FROM THE DEALER WHO REPORTED THE ENGINE HAD "BAD PISTONS". APPARENTLY THERE HAD BEEN A NOTICE TO DEALERS REGARDING THIS PROBLEM AND HOW TO FIX IT. THE DEALER DID PROVIDE A NEW LOANER MALIBU WHILE REPAIRING MY CAR. AT 40,000 MILES AND HAVE TO HAVE THE ENGINE REBUILT DOES NOT ENHANCE CONFIDENCE IN THE NEW GM. *TR

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
THIS CAR HAS HAD SEVERAL PROBLEMS. THEY HAVE HAD TO REPLACE A VACUUM PUMP, THE ENGINE SHIELD RECALL, THE BRAKES STICK, THERE IS A HORRIBLE SMELL OF HOT TRANSMISSION FLUID CONSTANTLY, THE TRANSMISSION COOLANT LINES HAVE BEEN REPLACED, A PUMP ABOVE THE FUEL TANK HAS BEEN REPLACED, THE CAR SURGES AND CAUSES THE RPM GAUGE TO BOUNCE, THE AXLES HAVE HAD LEAKS FIXED, THE EXTERIOR TRUNK BUTTON DOESN'T WORK, DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD IT SOUNDS LIKE A PLASTIC BOTTLE IS STUCK INSIDE THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT DOOR, SOME TIMES AFTER PUTTING THE KEY IN THE IGNITION IT WON'T TURN, THE SUSPENSION SYSTEM POPS AND CRACKS, THE AXLE SQUEALS, SHIFTS AT INAPPROPRIATE TIMES OR NOT WHEN IT IS SUPPOSED TO, THE BACK UP SENSOR WILL BEEP WHEN NOTHING IS THERE SOME TIMES, DOESN'T FEEL LIKE THERE IS ANY PRESSURE BEHIND THE BRAKES SOME TIMES, AND SMOKE ROW OUT FROM UNDER THE HOOD WHEN STOPPED AT STOP LIGHTS SOME TIMES. I THINK THAT IS EVERY THING BUT IT HAS BEEN A CONSTANT NIGHTMARE. I AM GUESSING ON MILES AND DATES, BUT IT WAS NOT VERY LONG AFTER I GOT IT BRAND NEW THAT IT STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS. WHEN I STARTED HAVING SHIFTING AND LEAKS IN THE TRANSMISSION, THE DEALERSHIP COULDN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS WRONG, I HAD TO POINT OUT THE LEAK MYSELF AND THEN HE SAID HE WOULD GET THE PARTS ORDERED AND THEY WOULD BE IN WITHIN 3 DAYS. 2 WEEKS LATER I CALLED GM, THEN IT WAS WITHIN A WEEK I WAS CONTACTED BY THE DEALER THAT THEY HAD THE PARTS, AFTER GM SAID SOMEONE WOULD CONTACT ME WITHIN 48 HOURS. THIS HAS BEEN SUCH A HASSLE I AM NOW VEHICLE SHOPPING AND WILL NOT PURCHASE ANOTHER CHEVROLET. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I WAS DRIVING AT A LOW RATE OF SPEED WHEN MY CAR DIED. I HAD NO BRAKES, POWER STEERING OR ENGINE POWER. I TRIED TO TURN MY KEY TO RESTART THE CAR BUT THE KEY ON MY FOB WAS STUCK, IT WOULDN'T MOVE FORWARD OR BACK OR OUT OF THE IGNITION FOR QUITE A WHITE. WHEN I WAS ABLE TO GET THE KEY OUT, I RETURNED IT TO THE IGNITION AND RESTARTED THE CAR AND DROVE STRAIGHT HOME. I CALLED CHEVY CORP. OFFICE WHERE THEY TOWED THE CAR TO MY LOCALE DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM. I AM SCARED TO DRIVE MY CAR, DUE TO THIS HAPPENING AGAIN. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
RADIO FLASHED ON AND OFF AND ALL BRAKE LIGHTS ON DASH WOULD LIGHT UP. SERVICE STABILITY CONTROL NOTICE WOULD APPEAR. THEN IT WOULD GO AWAY AND REAPPEAR. DID THIS FOR AN ENTIRE HOUR AND A HALF RIDE ON HIGHWAY. RADIO ON RADIO OFF DASHBOARD LIGHTS ON AND OFF. BLINKER NO LONGER CLICKED WHEN USED... DISCONCERTING TO DRIVE A CAR WITH SUCH PROBLEMS. A WEEK EARLIER I HAD CAR ISSUES COVERED UNDER POWER TRAN WARRANTY... AND NOW THIS...ALL AFTER A MASSIVE RECALL ANNOUNCED. THINK GM NEEDS TO RE LOOK AT ALL OF THEIR CARS... *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
2012 CHEVY CRUZE PURCHASED IN AUGUST 2012. HAS COOLANT SMELL WHEN HEAT IS ON (ANY SETTING). TEMPERATURE WOULD DROP AND START BLOWING OUT COLD AIR WHEN HEAT WAS TURNED ON. CHECKED COOLANT LEVEL AND WAS A LITTLE LOW. FILLED IT UP AND THE SMELL WAS EVEN STRONGER. ENGINE FAN CONSTANTLY RUNS. WORKING ON GETTING IT TO THE DEALERSHIP BUT UNABLE TO GET A LOANER CAR SO I CAN GO TO WORK. CANNOT TAKE TIME OFF OF WORK TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, SO I AM IN A "CATCH 22". READ NUMEROUS REPORTS OF THE SAME THING HAPPENING TO OTHER PEOPLE. *TR

STRUCTURE:BODY, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I WAS PARALLEL PARKING MY CAR AND WHEN I PUT IT IN PARK I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE AND THE CAR MADE A REVVING SOUND AND WENT IN REVERSE. I THEN HIT THE BRAKE, AND THE CAR LUNGED FORWARD AND MADE THE SAME NOISE. IT WENT INTO THE CAR BEHIND ME, AND THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. FINALLY AFTER THAT I WAS ABLE TO TAKE THE CAR BACK OUT OF PARK TO GO REVERSE SO THAT I CAN GET MY CAR AWAY FROM THE CAR IN FRONT OF IT (THAT I HIT) AND THEN I PARKED IT SUCCESSFULLY. PROBABLY THE SCARIEST THING THAT EVER HAPPENED BECAUSE I HAD ABSOLUTELY NO CONTROL OVER MY VEHICLE. WHEN I TELL MY FAMILY/FRIENDS ABOUT THE INCIDENT THEY THINK I'M A CRAZY PERSON BECAUSE THE ONLY WAY I CAN DESCRIBE IT IS BY SAYING IT FELT LIKE SOMETHING (SUCH AS A GHOST LOL) TOOK CONTROL OF MY CAR. I'M NOT SURE IF I AM GOING TO HAVE TO PAY FOR THE DAMAGE WHEN MY LEASE IS UP. *TR

POWER TRAIN, SUSPENSION
I BOUGHT MY CRUZE AT THE END OF FEB 2014, NEW. ON APRIL 11, 2014, I TOOK IT IN FOR A ROUTINE MAINTENANCE TASK. I WAS TOLD THAT THEY HAD TO CHECK FOR A DEFECTIVE RIGHT AXLE. I WAS TOLD IT WAS DEFECTIVE AND GIVEN A LOANER CAR. THEY STILL HAVE MY CAR AND CAN NOT TELL ME WHEN IT MIGHT BE FIXED BECAUSE THERE ARE NO PARTS AVAILABLE! SO, FOR ALL MOST 6 WEEKS, I AM NOW MAKING A CAR PAYMENT ON A CAR THAT I CAN NOT DRIVE! SO IS CHEVROLET STILL MAKING THE CRUZE AND IF SO WHY DON'T THEY HAVE AXLES TO REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE ONES!! I AM TIRED OF NOT GETTING AN ANSWER. I ALSO NEVER GOT A LETTER FROM CHEVROLET THAT I HAD A DEFECTIVE CAR! WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF I HAD NEVER TAKEN IT IN FOR MAINTENANCE?! I THINK THE CAR SHOULD BE REPLACED! *TR

ENGINE
THE CAR HAS BEEN LOSING POWER OVER THE PAST FEW MONTHS WHILE UNDER WARRANTY. I KEPT TAKING IT BACK TO THE CHEVY DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG AND RESET THE LIGHT. HOWEVER NOW THE CAR WILL NOT BARELY GO, I HAVE POWER BUT ITS FORCED AND ITS AS IF I HAVE TO PUSH THE CAR UP THE HILLS TO GO. I LIVE IN PENNSYLVANIA SO THIS IS NOT AN IDEAL SITUATION, BUT I HAVE HAD MY OIL CHANGED REGULARLY EVERY 3,000 MILES ALTHOUGH OTHER ISSUES HAVE OCCURRED WITH THE CAR LIKE THE COOLING SYSTEM AND THE TEMP GAGE THIS TIME I HAVE HAD IT CHECKED PROFESSIONALLY WITH AN OUTSIDE CONSULT RATHER THAN GOING TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATED THAT IT IS MY TURBO IT DOESN'T WORK AND PROBABLY HASN'T WORKED PROPERLY ON MY CAR. I HAVE BEEN ON SEVERAL FORUMS FOR CHEVY CRUZES AND IT SEEMS LIKE THERE ARE LOTS OF PEOPLE WITH THIS ISSUE AS WELL. *TR

STEERING, POWER TRAIN
PURCHASED THE CAR ON 28 APRIL 2014 FROM KNOX FORD IN RADCLIFF, KY. NOTICED A FAINT BURNING SMELL. WAS ADVISED THAT I RODE THE CLUTCH DURING THE TEST DRIVE. HAD THE CAR CHECKED OUT AND WAS ADVISED IT WAS GOOD TO GO. THE CAR WAS DELIVERED ON 30 APRIL. IT WAS FINALLY DRIVEN ON 5 MONDAY 2014 DOWN TO FORT CAMPBELL, KY. AT THAT POINT THE CAR REEKED OF BURNING CERAMIC AND THE POWER STEERING LOCKED UP COMPLETELY. AFTER RESTING IT FOR A FEW MINUTES AND RESTATING THE CAR, IT REENGAGED. CONTACTED DEALER AND WAS ADVISED TO GO TO LOCAL CHEVY DEALER FOR ASSESSMENT. CHEVY DEALER ADVISED THAT THE POWER STEERING MODULE WAS READING THAT IT WAS OUT OF CENTER AND DISENGAGING. WAS ALSO ADVISED THAT A PART OF THE CLUTCH ASSEMBLY HAD BEEN REPLACED A FEW THOUSAND MILES PREVIOUSLY AND SEEMED TO BE RUBBING INCORRECTLY. KNOX FORD ADVISED ME TO RETURN THE CAR TO THEIR DEALERSHIP (120 MILES AWAY) AND THEY WOULD WORK ON THE CAR. UPON LEAVING THE OTHER DEALERSHIP, THE POWER STEERING LOCKED UP AGAIN AND DIDN'T REENGAGE. DROVE THE CAR 120 MILES WITHOUT POWER STEERING AND RETURNED TO KNOX FORD TO HAVE THEM TAKE TO TO A CHEVY DEALERSHIP. THE POWER STEERING MODULE WAS REPLACED AND THE CAR ALIGNED. THE CHEVY DEALER COULDN'T FIND AN ISSUE WITH THE CLUTCH. RECLAIMED THE CAR ON 16 MAY 2014 AND DROVE THE CAR BACK DOWN TO FORT CAMPBELL TODAY 19 MAY 2014. ONCE AGAIN, THE BURNING SMELL HAS RETURNED. NOT AS STRONG BUT IT'S STILL THERE. *JS

STRUCTURE:BODY
VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING AT SLOW SPEED COMING UP TO A LIGHT WHEN THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED, AND THERE WAS NO RESPONSE TO THE BRAKES RESULTING IN AN ACCIDENT WITH TWO OTHER CARS. THERE WAS DAMAGE DONE TO THE CAR IN FRONT DUE TO THE COLLISION. WE TOOK THE CAR IN FOR A ROUTINE MAINTENANCE AND FOUND THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE BRAKES. THEY REPLACED THE BRAKE PRESSURE SWITCH AND THAT HAS FIXED THE PROBLEM. WE NOTICED FROM THE VERY BEGINNING, THAT AT SLOW SPEEDS, IT REQUIRED WAY TOO MUCH PEDAL TO STOP THE CAR. THERE IS A THIRD PARTY INVOLVED IN THE WRECK WHO MAY SEEK BODY INJURY. *JS
