2011 CHEVROLET CRUZE Complaints

TAMARA RECALL TRANSMISSION,VALVE COVER,BRAKE SENSOR, THROTTLE SENSOR , THIS CAR HAS GAVE ME PROBLEMS AFTER PROBLEMS , EVERY MONTH IT'S LITERALLG SOMETHING NEW I HAVE ABOUT 20 PAGES OF RECEIPTS

I DROVE MY 2011 CHEVROLET CRUZE TO WORK WITHOUT ISSUE. UPON LEAVING I STARTED MY MY VEHICLE, PUT IT IN REVERSE AND BACKED OUT OF MY PARKING SPOT BUT IT WOULD NOT DRIVE FORWARD. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO MY HOME. THE NEXT DAY IT WOULD NOT START UP ENTIRELY.

IT'S BEEN ONE YEAR AND MY CHEVY CRUZE HAS OVERHEATED TWICE. THE FIRST TIME THE THERMOSTAT WAS WRONG ALONG WITH THE THERMO PIPE THAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. AND NOW SIMILAR ISSUE IS HAPPENING WHERE MY CAR SMELLS FUNNY, I TURN THE HEAT IN AND THE CAR WILL START TO OVER HEAT AND NEVER WARM THE CAR.

WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY A MESSAGE SAYING REDUCED ENGINE POWER CAME ON AND VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. ALSO THE SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON WITH IT AND SERVICE STABILITRAK CAME ON AS WELL.

THE KEY FOB HOLDING THE KEY IN THE IGNITION BROKE, LEAVING THE KEY IN THE IGNITION, UNABLE TO TURN OFF OR TURN ON THE VEHICLE.

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.

THE CHEVROLET CRUZE'S WATER COOLANT OUTLET HAS CRACKED THREE TIMES NOW. THIS IS A PLASTIC PIECE THAT CRACKS UNDER HEAT AND LEAKS RADIATOR FLUID.

THE CAR ENGINE HAS SHUT OFF TWICE IN 2 WEEKS WHILE MAKING A RIGHT TURN ON AN INCLINE. I SLOWED DOWN TO MAKE THE TURN/CURVE AND THEN STEPPED ON THE GAS AND THE CAR DIED. THE DASH AND RADIO STAY ON, BUT NO POWER TO ENGINE. NO SERVICE LIGHTS STAY LITE ON THE DASH. YOU HAVE TO TURN THE KEY OFF, PUT IN PARK, OPEN DOOR SO RADIO TURNS OFF, GIVE A MIN AND RESTART. THE FIRST TIME I WAS PULLING OFF A SIDE ROAD ONTO A BUSY ROAD, BUT I DIDN'T DO A COMPLETE STOP BECAUSE TRAFFIC WAS CLEAR. I WAS GOING 10-15MPH. THE SECOND TIME I WAS ON A SIDE ROAD GOING ABOUT 25-30 MPH. IT WAS JUST A MILDLY SHARP CURVE.

NO REIMBURSEMENT FOR SAME ISSUE, SAME ERROR CODE. IF I'M BEING TOLD BY DIFFERENT BODY SHOPS THAT THEY CONTINUALLY SEE THE SAME ISSUE WITH CHEVY CRUZE'S, BEING THE LOSS OF TURBO BOOST. SHOULDN'T IT BE A PART OF THE RECALL FOR 2013&14 OR AT LEAST BE MADE A RECALL ITSELF. MINE IS A 2011 WITH THE SAME ERROR CODE READ AS THE RECALL WITH 2013'S. MY TURBO WAS REPLACED RIGHT BEFORE THANKSGIVING. HAPPY HOLIDAYS SMH!

DIRECT IMPACT WITH 1200 POUND COW WHILE DRIVING ON A STATE HIGHWAY, THE AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY. ENTIRE CAR ENGULFED IN FLAMES AS THE ENGINE IMMEDIATELY STARTED FIRE. TOTALLED. WHY DIDN'T THE AIRBAG DEPLOY? SERIOUS INJURY. SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. I HAVE PURCHASED 2 CRUZE'S BECAUSE OF THE SAFETY FEATURES. THIS IS SO NOT SAFE AND SO UNACCEPTABLE
